Infinity Starting with Hikaru no Go

For Kabuto Yakushi, Nono Yakushi had a crucial influence on his entire life, just like his own mother.

Kabuto's life, which was originally full of hardships, should have changed after he met Nonou.

However, after being threatened by Danzo Shimura, Kabuto Yakushi voluntarily became a member of Root for the sake of Nono Yakushi and the orphanage, and was used as a spy to travel to various countries.

Unbeknownst to Kabuto, Yakushi Nonou was also forced to return to Root at the same time to continue serving Root.

And so the tragedy began.

The source of the tragedy was Danzo Shimura.

Because Shimura Danzo no longer trusted Yakushi Kabuto and Yakushi Nonou, he devised a plan to have them kill each other.

......

Kabuto Yakushi didn't know how Chen Anxia knew about his contact with Orochimaru, nor did he know why Chen Anxia knew about Nono Yakushi.

However, it must be said that Kabuto's psychological defenses were shaken.

Actually, because of Shimura Danzo, Yakushi Kabuto harbored resentment towards Yakushi Nonou.

Even though Yakushi Nonou is like a mother to her.

The reason for this is that during that infighting, Yakushi Nonou, the person she cherished most and who she missed all the time, had no recollection of her at all, and even asked, "Who are you?"

At first, Kabuto thought that he had knocked off Nono Yakushi's glasses, making it impossible for her to see him clearly and therefore not recognize him.

But when Kabuto put his glasses on her, Nono Yakushi said the same thing again, asking, "Who are you?"

This deeply hurt the young Kabuto Yakushi at the time.

Later, when Orochimaru approached him, Kabuto learned the truth about what happened back then through Orochimaru.

The reason why Yakushi Nonou doesn't recognize herself is because Shimura Danzo interfered, making it impossible for her, who could only learn about Yakushi Kabuto's growth through photographs, to recognize that the person who killed her was Yakushi Kabuto.

The seeds of guilt, remorse, and hatred were thus sown.

This is also why Kabuto Yakushi agreed to Orochimaru's offer of amnesty and became Orochimaru's spy within Konoha.

Originally, Kabuto Yakushi wanted to kill Danzo Shimura himself, to avenge Nono Yakushi and himself.

However, Kabuto Yakushi did not expect that Jiraiya would resurrect the First and Second Hokage through Edo Tensei, and that they would join forces to kill Danzo Shimura.

This also dashed Kabuto's hopes of taking revenge himself.

Fortunately, Kabuto Yakushi learned of the existence of the forbidden technique, Impure World Reincarnation.

After Danzo Shimura died, Kabuto Yakushi began planning to steal the Book of Seals, learn the Impure World Reincarnation technique, revive Nonou Yakushi, and express his guilt and longing to her.

However, Kabuto Yakushi didn't know how long his plan would take to complete.

Therefore, Chen Anxia's proposal was very attractive to Yakushi Kabuto.

This was also based on the premise that Kabuto Yakushi had only just met Orochimaru and did not yet know that Orochimaru could use the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

If Kabuto Yakushi knew that Orochimaru could use the Impure World Reincarnation technique, Chen Anxia's proposal probably wouldn't have been as appealing.

Chen Anxia looked at Yakushi Kabuto, who was hesitant, and continued, "It's not that I can only trade with you, but if you don't agree, I have no choice but to kill you."

"Because only the dead can best keep secrets."

As he spoke, Chen Anxia's terrifying killing intent enveloped Yakushi Kabuto without any attempt to conceal it.

In that instant, Kabuto seemed to see death; it was the first time he had ever been so close to death.

He didn't know how anyone in this world could have such terrifying killing intent, but he knew that Chen Anxia wasn't lying; he really wanted to kill him, and he had the ability to do so.

At that very moment, Kabuto Yakushi made the most correct decision of his life, saying directly, "I promise you!"

The moment Kabuto Yakushi finished speaking, he felt the killing intent that had enveloped him vanish without a trace.

It was only then that Kabuto realized that his clothes were already soaked with sweat and that his body was constantly feeling weak.

Despite feeling extremely unwell, Kabuto Yakushi forced himself to stay alert and told Chen Anxia, ​​"Orochimaru and I have a special communication channel."

"I can use this channel to contact Orochimaru and try my best to find out his location."

"I will tell you as soon as I know where he is."

Through the data stream from Yakushi Kabuto, Chen Anxia knew that Yakushi Kabuto was telling the truth, and nodded slightly, saying, "If you can lure him out, that's fine too."

"If you accomplish this, I will immediately resurrect Yakushi Nonou using Edo Tensei."

"I'm leaving now. I'll come back after you've succeeded."

As he spoke, Chen Anxia's figure transformed into a flash of light and disappeared.

Seeing this, Kabuto was somewhat bewildered, his heart filled with doubt.

Since Chen Anxia didn't leave me his contact information, how should I notify Chen Anxia when I succeed?

Furthermore, Kabuto Yakushi couldn't understand Chen Anxia's last words. What did he mean by "I will come again after you succeed"? Did Chen Anxia have precognitive abilities?

Unable to figure it out, Kabuto didn't dwell on it any longer. He continued his surveillance mission while adjusting his state of mind, all the while pondering how to find out Orochimaru's location.

On the other side, after Hidan absorbed the fear of another village, the black seed within his body finally reacted, cracks appeared on it, and it began to shake violently, as if something was trying to break free from it.

Hidan noticed the Black Seed's unusual movement and held his breath, beginning to anticipate its arrival.

Hidan believed that the Black Seed was a gift from an evil god, and that anything hatched from it must be extraordinary.

As Hidan waited in vain, an indescribable creature finally broke free from the black seed, its mouth slightly open, emitting a silent cry.

This silent scream transformed into boundless fear, instantly engulfing Hidan's entire body.

But this fear, which penetrated every cell of his body, brought a morbid smile to Hidan's face.

Because Hidan somehow knew that he had become symbiotic with this indescribable creature and possessed some of its abilities.

And one of those abilities is... immortality!

......

Chapter 611 Nightmare, the Birth of Great Terror!

The moment the Beast of Original Sin hatched, Chen Anxia, ​​the creator of the Beast of Original Sin in this world, sensed it and immediately learned all the information about the Beast of Original Sin.

The original beast is still weak at this stage, but it possesses two abilities that are virtually unbeatable.

These two abilities are Nightmare and Immortality.

Immortality means that there is no concept of death in the data stream of the Beast of Original Sin, which makes the Beast of Original Sin impossible to kill.

In the previous world, if Chen Anxia hadn't sacrificed himself and rewritten the Taotie's data stream, adding the concept of death to the Taotie, Chen Anxia's side would have been completely unable to defeat the Taotie.

Nightmares, on the other hand, are a characteristic inherent to the Beast of Original Sin.

Because the Beast of Original Sin is made up of human fear, when humans look directly at the Beast of Original Sin, it is as if they are looking directly at their own deepest fear, thus falling into a nightmare.

The real terror begins after you fall into a nightmare.

If one cannot overcome their fear in a nightmare, their spirit will sink into endless despair until the moment of their physical death, at which point they will find release.

That's the terror of nightmares.

Of course, as long as you don't look directly at the beast of original sin, you can avoid falling into a nightmare.

But in battle, who can completely abandon their sight and fight the Beast of Original Sin using only their other senses?

However, the original sin beast is too weak at this stage, and the nightmare's ability is not strong either. Anyone with a slightly stronger will can break free.

However, the beast of original sin will continue to grow.

This also means that the Nightmare's power will continue to grow stronger. When the Beast of Original Sin becomes powerful enough, even ninja powerhouses like Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha will likely be unable to break free from the Nightmare's shackles.

Mt. Miaomu.

The moment the Beast of Original Sin hatched, the Great Toad Sage's heart pounded violently, and an indescribable fear surged from his soul.

In the darkness, the Great Toad Immortal seemed to see a vision of the future, a figure of indescribable stature, like a god, high above, floating in the sky, looking down upon the earth.

Upon seeing this, the Great Toad Sage uttered a terrifying cry: "Darkness... has been born!!"

Upon seeing this, Fukasaku and Shima, the Toad Masters, changed their expressions drastically and couldn't help but ask, "Great Toad Master, have you foreseen the darkness?"

The Great Toad Sage was breathing heavily, his face filled with terror, and he instinctively uttered, "Darkness... indescribable!!"

Fukasaku and Shima the Master also noticed the Great Toad Master's strange behavior and realized that he was in a daze. Their faces showed deep shock.

They had no idea what kind of darkness the Great Toad Sage had foreseen that would cause him to react in this way.

But they knew that the darkness foreseen by the Great Toad Sage must be incredibly terrifying.

Thinking it over, Fukasaku and Shima exchanged a glance, both seeing the unspoken agreement in each other's eyes: they were going to tell Jiraiya about this.

On the other side, the White Snake Sage of Ryuchi Cave and the Slug Sage of Shikkotsu Forest also reacted.

Although they cannot foresee future scenes like the Great Toad Sage, they have a sense of the unseen world and know that great terror is about to be born.

Their reactions were also similar: they sought out humans who had made pacts with their own kind and guided them to search for this great terror that couldn't possibly have come from nowhere.

At the same time, in Konoha Village.

Hashirama Senju, Tobirama Senju, Jiraiya, and Tsunade were gathered together, discussing matters concerning Chen Anxia.

Because Chen Anxia's abilities were so terrifying, if Hashirama Senju hadn't said it himself, Tobirama probably wouldn't have believed that a human with such terrifying abilities could exist in this world.

Not only Tobirama Senju, but even Hashirama Senju, Jiraiya, and Tsunade, who already knew the truth, still couldn't believe it and their emotions remained unsettled for a long time.

Therefore, they were extremely concerned about Chen Anxia's purpose.

Judging from the conversation between Hashirama Senju and Chen Anxia, ​​Chen Anxia hopes that Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju will return to the human world, but why is that?

They just couldn't understand it no matter how hard they tried.

Besides that, they were also very concerned about one thing: whether Chen Anxia was the darkness mentioned in the words of the Great Toad Immortal.

Judging from the abilities Chen Anxia has demonstrated, it is indeed possible that he will be able to grow to the level of darkness in the future.

Just as they were discussing, Jiraiya suddenly turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared from their sight.

Before they could react, Tsunade turned into a wisp of smoke and disappeared before their eyes.

Seeing this, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju looked at each other in bewilderment.

Although they didn't know what had happened, they knew that Jiraiya and Tsunade had been reverse-summoned to Mount Myōboku and Shikkotsu Forest.
