This thing, like a white ghost, isn't it something from the original plot?
Lin Nan had forgotten its specific name, but it seemed to be a product created by this world's Menma using the Nine-Tails within him.
Logically, if the Nine-Tails came out, it was reasonable for this white ghost to follow.
However, Lin Nan always felt that this matter might not be as simple as it appeared. He crushed a white ghost that had stumbled into his path and continued searching for the Nine-Tails' chakra.
Before long, he pinpointed its location.
"Still trying to run!"
The next moment, Lin Nan's wings unfurled behind him, carrying his massive form as he soared towards the spot where the Nine-Tails' chakra was fluctuating.
If he could find Menma, wouldn't Hydrangea be far behind?
But ultimately, Hydrangea's abduction was most likely done by himself in this world.
So, did he have the right to take Hydrangea back?
Even though it was still himself, the ownership of Hydrangea in this world didn't seem to belong to him.
"Bang!"
Lin Nan landed. He had arrived at the outskirts of Konoha Village. The Nine-Tails' chakra had stopped, seemingly blocked by the vermilion walls and an invisible special formation.
Minato also appeared behind Lin Nan's massive Susanoo. He had been following Lin Nan the entire time.
"What's wrong? Is Menma here?" Minato asked.
Lin Nan remained silent, his Sharingan scanning the surroundings.
The Nine-Tails' chakra had vanished into thin air, and there seemed to be no chakra fluctuations nearby.
What was going on?
Lin Nan's Susanoo was taller than the city walls. Through the walls, he could see a vast expanse of mountains and forests outside.
"Hmm?"
What was that?
Under Lin Nan's Sharingan observation, there seemed to be a faint fluctuation of chakra in the air.
Before Lin Nan could get a clear look, the system's voice suddenly chimed in.
"Ding, S-rank Ninjutsu: Great Spiral Insubstantial Rot (Menma Uzumaki) has been added to the skill library!"
Before Lin Nan could react, he saw a point of starlight drifting towards the ground.
"Boom!"
Without any warning, extremely expanding super-high heat and gale-force winds instantly engulfed Lin Nan's Susanoo.
A mushroom cloud then rose, the heat wave covering a vast area and still expanding. Before long, it had swept across half the ninja village.
When everything settled, a blue light was revealed.
The colossal Susanoo stood amidst the ruins, its armor showing clear signs of damage.
This attack was so powerful that even a Perfect Susanoo was damaged?
Lin Nan found it incredible. He had thought he was hit by a nuclear weapon just now.
Fortunately, Susanoo's defense was still extremely strong, especially the Perfect Susanoo.
Of course, what surprised Lin Nan the most was the Great Spiral Insubstantial Rot.
The system's prompt clearly indicated that this move was also used by Menma. The white ghost and the Nine-Tails earlier were also Menma's.
This meant Menma was controlled by Obito?
Recalling when he first met Menma earlier that day, Lin Nan took a deep breath.
He suddenly thought of something terrifying.
Could this be the truth that Obito spoke of?
Of course, it was also possible that Menma was controlled by himself in this world.
Using Nine-Tails Mode, Lin Nan once again scanned for the Nine-Tails' trace, but there was no longer any sign of it.
This indicated that the Nine-Tails' jinchuriki had left.
The previous attack had destroyed the entire city wall of Konoha, and the formation had also been almost scattered.
Thinking back, the crowded area was likely a lure to draw Lin Nan there.
After all, they could choose to leave directly.
As for their purpose, Lin Nan still couldn't figure it out.
"Little Lin, are you okay?"
A golden light flashed, and Minato appeared.
Lin Nan shook his head. "Their tracks can no longer be detected!"
Minato sighed slightly. "We can't worry about that now. That jutsu had a huge range, and half the village was affected. I'll go rescue people first!"
With that, Minato's figure vanished.
"Ding, SSS-rank Space-Time Ninjutsu: Flying Thunder God Technique (Upgraded Version by Minato Namikaze) has been added to the skill library!"
Flying Thunder God?
Lin Nan felt no particular emotion towards this.
After all, in reality, obtaining this was quite easy. At this stage, the First Hokage should have also arrived at the battlefield.
Lin Nan didn't know if time flowed the same in the Tsukuyomi world and the outside world.
But if it was the same, then by the time he finished this night, the war in the real world would probably be over.
Lin Nan deactivated the Susanoo, glanced into the distance, and then returned to Hydrangea's home.
The Great Spiral Insubstantial Rot earlier had not affected this area, but it didn't prevent things from being in chaos here as well.
It had to be said, Konoha was always a place of trouble, no matter which world it was in; the village was constantly being damaged.
At this time, Yamato's Wood Style jutsu seemed extremely important.
After all, even the powerful First Hokage couldn't perform a "three-room, one-hall" jutsu.
Walking into Hydrangea's home, the room was basically equipped with both men's and women's toiletries, indicating they had been living together for a long time.
Looking at the photo on the table, the two were wearing formal attire, their smiles like flowers.
Hydrangea was still as lovely as ever. Compared to reality, she seemed a little older, which was likely a change in the Tsukuyomi world.
After all, according to the original world, Hydrangea hadn't reached the legal age for marriage.
Lin Nan looked at himself in the photo again.
He was smiling so brilliantly, as if his life was perfect and without regrets.
"Any thoughts, Senior?"
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
Lin Nan wasn't too surprised. He gently placed the photo back on the table and slowly turned around, saying, "You still dare to come back?"
"I never left!" It was Obito.
Lin Nan stared intently at Obito, as if he were about to kill him on the spot.
Obito, however, chuckled. "I told you, I'm just a tourist in this world, completely detached from it, so I can't do anything with my own hands!"
"What exactly do you want to say?" Lin Nan asked coldly.
"How does it feel when your dreams are shattered, Senior?" Obito continued to smile.
Lin Nan clenched his fists upon hearing this but said nothing.
Obito went on, "There was once an opportunity presented to you, and you didn't cherish it!"
Lin Nan seemed unable to control himself any longer. A skeletal arm suddenly swung out.
However, Obito was right; he couldn't do anything to him.
"Don't get agitated, Senior. Now you have one, and only one, chance to regret!" Obito said.
Lin Nan remained silent.
"Tomorrow, do not get involved with the Book of Crimson Moons. At this time tomorrow, I guarantee your wife will be lying obediently in bed!" Obito vowed.
Lin Nan suddenly let out a cold laugh. "Stop playing these clumsy tricks!"
"Huh?" Obito was slightly taken aback.
"The mastermind behind all this isn't you, is it? And it's not something you can control!"
"Why do you think that? You know this world was created by me!" Obito sneered.
"Because, you can't command me, no matter which world it is!"
