Chapter 636: A Bird in a Cage(1/3)
Chapter 636 The Bird Returns to the Cage
The air in February is still filled with cold air.
Walking into the deserted wilderness, the surrounding scenery is completely desolate.
After walking for three days, under the leadership of Kabuto, we finally arrived at the northern stronghold of Orochimaru's force.
The cold air was filled with a strong smell of blood that disgusted Sasuke.
This smell made him feel as unpleasant as entering Orochimaru's laboratory filled with snakes and countless corpses.
Although the situation here is not as disgusting as Orochimaru's laboratory, it still makes Sasuke's originally good mood become unhappy.
If the prediction is correct, the person named 'Chongwu' we are going to meet next will not be a kind person.
The turbulent waves crashed into the gorge, splashing patches of white spray.
It was a huge building cast between the steep gorges, like the castle tower in the Daming Palace, standing high on the most conspicuous place.
A winding circular staircase is laid from the bottom of the rock to the building on the top of the mountain.
The smell of blood that filled the air came from that building.
Sasuke squinted his eyes and glanced at the huge building on the top of the mountain. In terms of construction skills, it was considered a masterpiece of craftsmanship.
But the surface of the building has a black coating, which always gives people an eerie feeling.
Kabuto continued to lead the way and looked up at the building on the top of the mountain. He then turned his head slightly and smiled at Sasuke who had followed him: "Ahead is the headquarters of the northern stronghold... although it was also built by Orochimaru-sama with great effort.
The stronghold has actually been abandoned for a long time, and most of the time it was used as a place to hold prisoners."
"There is no need to explain this kind of thing to me. I am not interested in these things."
Sasuke quietly opened the red three-magatama Sharingan, and the smell here made him a little alert.
Bloody, quiet, definitely not a good place.
Kabuto smiled slightly, lowered his head and led the way forward.
Although he has not been here many times, he remembers every route clearly. This is one of his essential abilities as a multi-faceted spy.
"The curse seal developed by Lord Orochimaru came from Jugo. However, Jugo has serious mental problems. When he is quiet, he is more harmless than ordinary people. Even weak animals will be affected by his aura.
Attracting...but when it becomes violent..."
At this point, Kabuto stopped talking.
No need to explain, Sasuke understood the meaning.
I also realized that this person named ‘Zhongwu’ had very severe symptoms of split personality.
"With your medical ninjutsu, you can't treat it, okay?"
Sasuke walked up the stairs and asked.
"Mental problems are difficult to treat. Even if they are suppressed with drugs, they can only work temporarily. Moreover, the more often Zhongwu takes drugs, the corresponding antibodies will be produced, making his symptoms more serious. After all, his split personality is
It is even more difficult to treat those caused by natural energy."
Kabuto sighed.
If this were not the case, Jugo would also be Orochimaru's extremely optimistic 'seed'.
Instead of living like this, living like a prisoner, becoming a "medicine man" in a miserable situation, using his body to make medicine and develop curse seals.
But because of this, the other party has been eliminated from the list of Orochimaru's reincarnations. In a sense, it is a good thing. At least he will not be robbed of everything by Orochimaru, the 'owner', for no reason.
"Interesting. Has natural energy gone wild?"
Sasuke asked.
Kakashi did explain this issue when he taught him about natural energy in the past.
Although it is just the basis of immortality, if it is not taken seriously, it will have extremely terrible sequelae. Because practicing natural energy requires a high spiritual level to understand and control it.
If there is no such matching 'state of mind' and forced manipulation, natural energy will run wild.
The consequences of natural energy runaway have many phenomena.
Chongwu's split personality may be one of them.
This is probably because, although he is born with the ability to control natural energy, there is something wrong with his own 'state of mind'.
It's really dangerous, this kind of force of nature.
Kabuto nodded silently, accepting Sasuke's question.
Soon, the two came to the platform of the building on the top of the mountain.
A tall iron gate stood in front, and the strong smell of blood seeped out from the cracks in the iron gate.
In the gaps between the stone slabs on the platform, Sasuke also saw blood stains and small shreds of meat that had not been cleaned.
Sasuke guessed that many bloody and deadly battles had taken place on this platform in the past.
The smell of blood hit my face.
Sasuke endured the disgusting smell, looked straight at Kabuto, picked up the key, opened the lock on the iron door, and then pushed open the huge iron door, revealing the scene inside.
The smelly wind blew out from inside.
The sound of metal hitting metal also spreads through the air.
Countless figures gathered in the huge space, fighting and killing each other.
But it is not accurate to say that it is a human being, but a "humanoid creature" with a very abnormal appearance and body.
The wanton and cruel laughter hangs on the faces of these humanoid creatures, giving people an incomparable sense of cruelty and bloodthirsty.
Use your fists to beat the enemy in front of you to death, causing your fists to be filled with blood and flesh.
Someone banged a living person against a steel-hard wall, knocking the person's heart out.
Tearing raw meat with hands...
Like the most primitive slaughterhouse.
Seeing such a scene, Kabuto and Sasuke both became slightly silent.
Not to mention Sasuke, even someone like Kabuto who is used to seeing scenes is a little unaccustomed to such scenes.
That's why he likes coming here.
The people and everything here are full of madness and bloodthirsty.
The people imprisoned here are all 'humanoid monsters' that are twisted from body to mind!
"Is it the product of failed fusion of the curse seal?"
Sasuke took a step forward and made a crisp sound.
Although the voice was not loud, it had a strong presence, causing the people who were fighting each other to stop their fighting movements and turn their bloodthirsty and ferocious eyes towards them.
"Haha, it's a newcomer!"
"Is he also a being abandoned by Lord Orochimaru?"
"Great, kill everyone and you can regain Orochimaru-sama's attention!"
"kill!"
"Kill them all!"
"I am Lord Orochimaru's strongest vessel!"
…
Twisted and crazy words spewed out from the mouths of these humanoid creatures.
The organized words seem to have some kind of terrifying contagion, causing those who hear these words to lose their minds along with them.
"Sasuke-kun, that..."
Just as Kabuto was about to say something, he saw Sasuke's figure disappearing from beside him.
"Get rid of——"
Seeing Sasuke's figure sprinting up, the humanoid creatures that went crazy seemed to have unified their opinions and started to kill Sasuke one after another.
The humanoid creature that rushed to the front was knocked out by a fist before he could finish his sentence, and screams echoed in this huge space.
"Chidori-ryu."
A sharp scream broke through the air, drowning out the previous screams.
The crazy surge of lightning caused the humanoid creatures surrounding Sasuke to be blown away one by one. Paralyzed by the lightning, they fell to the ground unable to move, and their consciousness was half asleep and half awake.
Then, Sasuke turned around quickly and pulled out the bright silver blade from the scabbard.
The brilliance of the Kusanagi sword cuts through the obstacles of the atmosphere.
Poof!
Blood spurts out of the human body.
To be continued...
