"What's his name?"
In the arena, Shuiyue looked at Sasuke, who was clutching his head and screaming, and asked in confusion.
"His name is Sasuke!"
Lin Nan glanced at him when he heard this, causing him to hide behind Juugo, revealing a pair of speechless eyes.
However, Juugo leaped forward in the next moment and, under the fading Susanoo, helped Sasuke up.
"Crack, crack, crack..."
At that moment, everyone seemed to hear the sound of glass shattering.
Sasuke also seemed to wake up from a dream at that instant, his Mangekyo Sharingan already returned to its normal jet-black pupils, filled with fear.
Orochimaru cackled with amusement and asked, "A genjutsu? What did you make him see?"
Lin Nan shrugged and said, "The scene he feared seeing the most, at least what he feared seeing most in the past."
"Oh..." Orochimaru nodded meaningfully.
"So, what are you going to do now that you've been revived?" Lin Nan asked.
Orochimaru glanced at Sasuke, who still seemed immersed in fear, and said, "For some reason, I seem to have lost my desire for longevity. Now I just want to see what this young man will achieve in the end!"
Those words, could the tone be any more sinister?
Lin Nan was speechless, lost his desire for longevity?
Are you sure you haven't already found a way to achieve longevity?
Don't think I don't know that years later, Naruto will have wrinkles while you'll be getting younger and younger, almost changing gender.
But this trick is indeed good.
If I could be revived, I could use this trick to avoid death.
Applying the curse mark doesn't seem to be a ninjutsu.
I'll worry about that later.
"Lin Nan!"
Sasuke finally recovered after receiving Juugo's chakra infusion. He glared at Lin Nan fiercely, his voice trembling.
"As long as you wish it, your Hawk Team will come to your rescue. Truly lives up to its reputation!" Lin Nan teased with a smile, clapping his hands.
Sasuke trembled with anger, and his chakra began to erupt again.
Lin Nan, however, said meaningfully, "You must be familiar with the technique I just used, right? Do you now realize how ridiculous it was that you broke free from the genjutsu your brother cast on you?"
Sasuke fell silent, and his chakra gradually subsided.
"Orochimaru, I need you to Edo Tensei the First Hokage. I have questions to ask them!"
Sasuke finally remembered the important matter.
"The First Hokage?" Orochimaru chuckled sinisterly. "The First Hokage was sealed in the Shinigami's belly by the Third Hokage with the Reaper Death Seal. No matter what, we need to go to Konoha!"
"Let's go now!"
Sasuke turned to leave, then turned back and glared at Lin Nan, "You're not allowed to go!"
"Damn it, what business is it of yours if I go to Konoha? I'm going, and can you stop me?" Lin Nan adopted an attitude of defiant indifference.
Sasuke was infuriated, but from the brief exchange just now, he knew he couldn't do anything to Lin Nan.
Although unwilling, Sasuke was quite sensible in this regard.
Just like when he was under Orochimaru, he wouldn't attack Orochimaru until he had grown stronger.
Sasuke led the others away, while Lin Nan sent a wood clone to follow.
As for the remaining wood clone, he planned to take Konan away.
Konan clearly wanted to join the Ninja World War to avenge the deceased, but the Ninja World War was extremely dangerous, a battle of gods. Apart from those with plot armor, most would be sent to their deaths.
Konan was someone who had narrowly escaped death, so how could Lin Nan let her go?
...
To be continued.
Meanwhile, the wood clone and Uchiha Itachi had dealt with Yakushi Kabuto, and the Edo Tensei jutsu was subsequently dispelled.
This meant that half of the main force of the masked man's army had been dealt with.
After all, the masked man's army consisted of a hundred thousand White Zetsu and tens of thousands of Edo Tensei soldiers.
The White Zetsu army had mostly been resolved as cannon fodder or vanguards in the early stages of the battle.
These White Zetsu were all inferior replicas, mostly ordinary people from ancient times, so it was normal for them to be quickly dealt with.
The overall situation was excellent, but the real battlefield was where the masked man and the Gedo Mazo were located. The battle there had just begun.
"Little Lin-kun?"
Kakashi, who had been kicked away by Lin Nan, was bewildered, looking at Lin Nan with confusion.
Lin Nan showed no apology and said, "Oh, sorry. I thought you thought I was an enemy..."
Kakashi was confused but quickly reacted and said, "Your clone was helping me just now. I wouldn't think that!"
Lin Nan had interacted with Kakashi frequently in the past. In the early stages, they were enemies, and during Pain's invasion of Konoha, they became allies, so they were quite familiar with each other.
"Oh..." Lin Nan replied, then grinned mischievously, "Come, I'll take you somewhere fun!"
Before Kakashi could agree, Lin Nan placed his hand on Kakashi's shoulder. Their figures began to distort, an invisible ripple appeared, and then they vanished.
When Kakashi opened his eyes, he found himself in a world that seemed to be only black and white.
The sky was black, and the ground was covered in countless white pillars stretching as far as the eye could see.
"Where is this?" Kakashi was very confused.
"This is the battlefield!" Lin Nan patted Kakashi's shoulder and pointed to the sky.
Kakashi looked intently. It seemed to be a part of a person's body, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Battlefield? What is that?" Kakashi asked endlessly, his entire being filled with suspicion.
They were fighting well, why did they suddenly come here?
If Lin Nan's clone hadn't genuinely helped him, and if there wasn't enough trust between them, he would have already used Chidori.
Lin Nan used the Lightweight Rock Jutsu to bring Kakashi into the air, intending for him to observe carefully.
Looking at Lin Nan, Kakashi smiled and said, "Little Lin-kun's mentality has improved more than usual when using Edo Tensei this time..."
Before he could finish speaking, that body part seemed to reappear.
A black rod suddenly appeared in Lin Nan's hand, which he thrust into it. Blood splattered, and the body part subsequently disappeared.
Lin Nan revealed a ferocious smile and then looked at Kakashi, "What did you just say?"
Kakashi was stunned. "Nothing!"
"Did you see clearly just now?"
"I saw clearly!" Kakashi nodded.
"Where do you guess this place is?" Lin Nan asked meaningfully.
Kakashi's mind worked quickly, and he instantly understood everything. "This is the space the masked man uses to evade attacks?"
"That's right. Also, this space and your Kamui transfer space are the same?" Lin Nan chuckled.
"Ah?" Kakashi's expression froze.
"Boom..."
There was a sudden loud noise, as if the entire space was trembling.
"What happened?"
Kakashi looked around frantically but saw nothing.
Lin Nan waved his hand and said, "A meteor must have fallen here. It's a minor matter, don't worry about it!"
"Meteor???"
