Chapter 519 The Birth of the White Wedge, Orochimaru's Wrongful Accusation
"This child truly has the potential to become a vessel. Nagato, you did a great job this time!" In Amegakure, Jigen looked at the children playing in the orange-red potion and couldn't help but praise them with delight.
Although this was only the basic requirement to inherit the Karma seal, he had only encountered a handful of children with this qualification in thousands of years. He never expected that Nagato and the others would find one so quickly. How could he not be pleasantly surprised?
He only needs to successfully imprint a container to get out of his current predicament!
No longer will I have to hide in the dark like a disgusting rat; all the humiliation and hatred will be quickly overthrown and settled.
Thinking of this, and the woman who ambushed him, Cixian could no longer hold back his sharp gaze, and his Wedge State erupted fiercely.
Under the horrified gazes of Nagato and the other two, black lines appeared simultaneously around Jigen's eyes, lips, jaw, and various parts of his body. An invisible, terrifying pressure swept across the entire area, causing the three to tremble and freeze.
The next instant, Cixian's large hand, covered in black marks, plunged into the orange-red potion, and the orange-red potion, divided into pieces the size of a water tank, turned pitch black in the blink of an eye!
The terrified child didn't even have time to react before being swallowed by the mysterious black substance...
In the blink of an eye, under Cixian's expectant gaze, the black wedge mark rapidly flowed back and merged into the child's chubby arm, forming a strange yet exquisite pitch-black pattern.
"It's done, are we finally going to find it...?"
With eyes burning with excitement, Cixian murmured involuntarily, staring at the diamond-shaped mark formed on her palm, losing her composure.
After a thousand years, he has finally found his resurrection vessel!
Once he has this child, he won't need to be so careful anymore.
Ten years. Just give him another ten years and he can wash away the shame!
Sure enough, he made the right move.
Kaguya's trash will may be useless, but the pieces she creates are still quite useful.
After that, all he needs to do is train Nagato to become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, so that he can replace Ōtsutsuki in feeding the Ten-Tails and allow the Divine Tree to bloom and bear fruit again.
After that, it's time to settle the score with that wretched woman, Kaguya...
"Masaka!!"
Just as Cixian was so excited he was about to burst out laughing, the formed black mark suddenly turned white, causing his face to turn as black as ink.
"White Wedge? How could it be White Wedge?! Damn it, why is this happening..."
With a dark expression, Cixian stared at the glaring white mark, the torment of waiting for a thousand years finally erupting in an instant, and he couldn't help but shout in shock and anger.
If the Black Wedge is a divine spell that can resurrect and reincarnate him, then the White Wedge is a pure inheritance mark that inherits his power!
His long-awaited revenge plan, which he had been waiting for for a thousand years, had suddenly turned out this way. How could he accept this?!
"What's wrong? Is there anything different about that guy called White Wedge?" Seeing Jigen's outburst, Nagato asked tentatively with a glint in his eyes.
It should be noted that from the moment they met, Cixian had always maintained a calm and aloof attitude, appearing unfazed even if a mountain collapsed before him.
But now, why would such a guy suddenly lose his composure? There must be something they don't know, and this information might be to their advantage!
"It failed. It's a failure."
After a moment of silence, Cixian regained his calm and composed expression, and the black marks on his body quickly faded away, returning him to his previous appearance.
"Nagato, your mission continues. This child will remain in Amegakure for now. I will take him away when he is a little older!" Jigen's cold gaze swept around the room before finally settling on the child with a resentful snort.
Although it was a failure, it wasn't without value!
If... if things turn out that way afterward, this child might be his continuation, and his last hope for revenge!
However, that outcome is best avoided.
"Leave this child in Amegakure? But none of us have experience taking care of children!" Upon hearing this, Yahiko immediately waved his hand in refusal.
"Ji-gen, can't you take him with you?" Nagato asked, a strange glint in his eyes as he took the opportunity to probe.
“No, because I might accidentally kill him!” Cixian said coldly, his eyes flashing with a chilling light, causing Xiaonan’s pupils to shrink in horror.
"Alright, we'll take care of this child." With a swift movement, Yahiko picked up the child and looked at Minami, who was overflowing with maternal love, with a slightly embarrassed smile and scratching his head.
"Well, actually we can also learn how to take care of children..."
Jigen merely glanced at this, then stared blankly at Nagato, saying, "Don't forget to continue searching for talented children; I need new vessels."
After saying that, she turned to leave, but then suddenly remembered something and turned back to ask, "By the way, what's that child's name?"
"Shomon, this child's name is Mitarai Shomon."
"Mitarai? Hmph, what a lowly and filthy surname..." Jigen sneered disdainfully, then took a step and his body suddenly disappeared.
"From today onwards, he will only be called Chaomen."
The three Nagato members—
Meanwhile, at the Valley of the End of the Land of Fire.
"As expected, Madara's body is gone!!"
Looking at the empty, dark room beneath the stone statue, Ishikawa's left eye turned red, and he finally made up his mind.
"Ishikawa, do you have any clues?" Nohara Rin, whose right eye was bloodshot, turned her head upon hearing this. Ishikawa-kun's words were loaded with meaning!
“Yes, if I’m not mistaken, there are only two possibilities.” Ishikawa nodded in agreement, a slow smile curving his lips. “We can now basically rule out Orochimaru’s theory. It’s impossible that someone would be bluffing and taking advantage of the disappearance of Madara’s body.”
"Furthermore, why would the mastermind use Madara Uchiha to kidnap children? Considering all of the above, there's only one ninjutsu that comes to mind: Impure World Reincarnation!!"
"You mean, Orochimaru??" Nohara Rin's mouth gaped open in surprise.
She witnessed the horror of Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation during the previous Konoha Crush! If it was Orochimaru, then everything makes sense...
Using the corpse of Edo Tensei Uchiha Madara, they stole children to conduct live experiments, and then used the intimidation of Uchiha Madara to confuse people and make them panic!
But how come Uncle Higashino saw Madara Uchiha in his younger form?
Special modifications? Hmm, with Orochimaru's talent, it's not impossible!
So, their attempt to recruit this future S-rank rogue ninja failed after all...
“However, I don’t think Orochimaru is that stupid, and he doesn’t have that ability right now. Perhaps, the big fish has taken the bait!” Ishikawa gently patted Rin’s shoulder and offered another possibility as a word of comfort.
And he is more inclined to believe this possibility!
However, all speculation needs to be verified with Orochimaru first. Then, it's time to go and check that place out...
