Chapter 403 Black Zetsu Makes a Grand Debut!
The afternoons in Konoha are always warm and gentle, with sunlight filtering through the leaves and casting dappled golden light on the ground.
Lin Sang held Xing Shu's little hand and walked slowly through the alleys of the commercial street, with Aunt He Zi following behind.
The little one was wearing a sky-blue kimono, clutching a freshly bought milk tea in his hand, and was drinking it with great enthusiasm.
"Dad, look at that!"
Yuki suddenly stopped and pointed to a wood carving stall not far away, "It's Kurama!"
Lin Sang looked in the direction he pointed and saw a lifelike nine-tailed fox statue on the stall. The wood grain was delicate, and it was a cute chibi version.
He then patted Yuki's head and said, "Want it? Call me Daddy and I'll buy it for you."
"Okay, okay!"
Yuki nodded vigorously, his eyes shining like stars.
Lin Sang:......
What happened? Suddenly I don't feel any pleasure anymore.
Aunt Kazuko chuckled from the side, "It seems that young master Yuki really likes Kurama."
Lin Sang smiled upon hearing this and was about to lead Xing Shu to the stall when, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a very faint black figure flashing past in the shadows at the end of the alley.
The figure disappeared very quickly. If he hadn't been exposed to Konoha during this time and hadn't become much more sensitive to chakra, he would have thought he was just seeing things.
A sudden tightness gripped Lin Sang's heart, and he instinctively pulled Yuki behind him. For some reason, he had a bad feeling, but then he thought about it again and realized that this was a bustling commercial street, so it seemed unlikely.
After all, even though most of the people in Konoha City have been deployed to fight, there are still nine tailed beasts here.
After buying the wood carving, Lin Sang wanted to go home quickly, fearing that something might happen. She wished she had brought Nine Lamas with her.
Unfortunately, all nine tailed beasts are now officially employed and have their own regular jobs every day.
Aunt Hezi, who was standing next to Lin Sang, naturally noticed the change in Lin Sang and subconsciously looked at the spot where Lin Sang had been looking earlier.
But there was only the rustling of leaves in the wind and the seemingly ordinary crowd, so Aunt Kazuko didn't notice anything unusual.
However, caution was ingrained in his bones; after all, he was a ninja before.
So, while hiding in her sleeve, Aunt Kazuko quietly formed hand seals and looked around with a solemn expression: "Lord Lin, let's leave first, there are too many people here."
She has already sent a message to the people in charge of security in the tribe, and someone should be able to get here soon.
Yuki noticed her father's nervousness, and her little hands gripped Lin Sang's clothes tightly. The smile on her face faded, and a hint of fear appeared: "Dad, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, don't be afraid."
Lin Sang gently comforted her son, pulled him into her arms, and turned to leave: "Let's get out of here first."
I don't plan to go home, since there's hardly anyone there anyway. I'd rather go to the office building; at least Izuna is there.
Just then, a hoarse voice suddenly came from the shadows, sounding strangely familiar to Lin Sang: "Want to leave? It's too late."
As soon as the other person finished speaking, Lin Sang felt the scenery around her rapidly blurring and disappearing.
At the same time, countless black slimes gushed out from the ground, instantly wrapping around the ankles of Lin Sang, Yuki, and Aunt Kazuko.
"what!"
Aunt Kazuko exclaimed in surprise and immediately activated her chakra to try to break free, but the black slime seemed to be alive, tightening its grip and making it impossible for her chakra to penetrate.
What's worse is that she can feel this black, liquid-like substance trying to take over her body.
"Auntie Kazuko!"
Lin Sang screamed in surprise.
At this moment, Black Zetsu had completely taken control of Senju Kazuko's body.
Black Zetsu stared intently at Lin Sang, his tone filled with resentment: "Lin Sang, you shouldn't exist in this world."
"If it weren't for you, my plan would have been perfect. The battle between the Senju and Uchiha would have unfolded according to the trajectory I set, Hashirama and Madara would have eventually broken apart, and Mom would have recovered sooner."
"But then you, the unexpected variable, appeared."
Black Zetsu's tone suddenly turned sharp:
"You've ruined everything! Hashirama has become indecisive because of you; Madara's attitude towards Konoha has also wavered because of you. If it weren't for you, I would have already caused the Uchiha and Senju to turn against each other completely, and there wouldn't be this false peace we have now!"
Lin Sang is now truly at a loss. After all, Black Zetsu has taken control of Aunt Kazuko's body, and if he were to make a move, the person possessed by him might be the one who dies in the end.
"What do you want?" Lin Sang's heart was pounding. At this moment, he felt a surge of relief, relieved that he had held Xing Shu in his arms and protected him.
If the person possessed is Yuki...
Unsure of what she was thinking at that moment, Lin Sang only felt like a petty person.
"Go ask in hell."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hei Jue, controlling the box, suddenly lunged forward.
"Lord Lin, be careful!"
Kazuko Senju, whose body had already been controlled by Black Zetsu, suddenly exclaimed in alarm.
Fortunately, Lin Sang now possesses Nen abilities, so he dodged the attack in just a few strides.
Yuki's face was pale, and he held Lin Sang tightly, but he didn't cry or make a fuss.
Black Zetsu watched this scene with a hint of pleasure in his eyes: "Don't worry, I won't let you die so easily. I will have Uchiha Izuna do it, so that Hashirama can see with his own eyes that the person he cherishes most dies at the hands of his most trusted ally."
"You!" Lin Sang was both shocked and furious. He hadn't expected that Hei Jue would have such a plan.
Black Zetsu's voice carried a morbid fanaticism, "What does this matter for Lady Kaguya!"
Just then, Black Zetsu suddenly looked up, a strange smile playing on his lips: "They're here."
Lin Sang followed Black Zetsu's gaze and saw a figure dressed in a dark blue Uchiha clan robe running towards them from the entrance of the alley.
The man had the distinctive black hair and red eyes of the Uchiha clan, a handsome and refined face, and exuded powerful chakra. He was none other than Uchiha Izuna.
Uchiha Izuna looked at everything in front of him, especially the black substance attached to the box, and his gaze immediately turned cold.
His tone was icy: "It's you?"
I never expected it to finally come out after searching for so long.
Black Zetsu ignored Izuna's question and suddenly raised his hand, shooting a black beam of chakra towards Yuki.
"careful!"
Izuna instinctively raised his hand and threw a kunai, which accurately struck the black beam of light.
The kunai collided with the beam of light, producing a crisp sound, and the beam of light instantly dissipated.
