Naruto: Listen to the bow sound, resounding throughout the ninja world

Chapter 472: The Death of Kabuto Yakushi and the Exit of the Three Goddesses

While everyone was still silently digesting the information, July did not stop speaking.

"Do you think that the Great Snake Sage doesn't know about this vicious contract you have made with Yakushi Kabuto?"

"Hahaha, you guys are underestimating the Great Snake Immortal's control over the Dragon Earth Cave, aren't you?"

"Everything you have done over the years, including your refusal to repent and still eating humans."

"The Great Snake Immortal saw it all."

"You must be wondering why I entered the Ryuchi Cave to learn the Immortal Arts."

"The Great Snake Immortal would be so polite to me."

"Now let me tell you the reason. It's because the seal of the Longdi Cave can no longer trap the Great Snake Immortal."

"So she had already reached a settlement with the immortals from the other two immortal lands a long time ago."

"They don't care about the disputes among the younger generations, but the most important benefit is to ensure that the three major immortal lands can be passed down for a long time."

"So, when I first entered the Ryuchi Cave, the Great Snake Sage had already sensed that I possessed the magic of Myoboku Mountain and the Wet Bone Forest."

"Since I have been recognized by the other two great immortals, the Great Snake Immortal will naturally be polite to me."

"Do you remember the first warning that the Great Snake Immortal gave you after seeing me?"

"That's the Great Snake Immortal reminding you, and the Great Snake Immortal has given you this reminder countless times."

"But none of you listened."

"If any one of you listens to me, you will not eat the sacrificial offerings for a hundred years."

"Then she would have been able to break free of her restraints and seals long ago, and fly freely in today's ninja world."

These are all that July got from the Great Snake Sage.

Moreover, July also got confirmation of this information from Slug Hermit and Fukasaku Hermit.

The Great Snake Sage had indeed come out and reached a reconciliation with them hundreds of years ago.

This is also the reason why the three great sages did not tell their descendants, but instead encouraged them to make a contract with the ninja and join the battle.

Everything is for the three major immortal places to compete in a healthy manner and continue their inheritance.

Hearing that this was the reason why they were trapped for a thousand years, the three goddesses became even more devastated.

They thought of countless reasons and excuses, but they never thought that it was because of the soul breath of the sacrifice.

Just as July finished speaking, Sanshen Ji was still devastated and regretful.

There was a sudden change on Pharmacist Kabuto's side.

He automatically cancelled the Sage Mode, and the silver hair on his head began to turn gray rapidly.

The wrinkles on his face were spreading all over his face at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Qiyue patted Shuiyue's shoulder and motioned for him to take her to Dou's side.

And Dou's changes quickly attracted everyone's attention.

Including Karin who has already woken up.

Soon, July came to the side of Yakushi Kabuto with the help of Shuiyue.

She looked at Dou, who was very calm at the moment, with a complicated expression.

"This is the price of the present-world contract."

"From the moment you completed the contract with Tian Xin and the others, you were destined to die."

"Cancel the contract. You will have to pay for their return to this world."

"If you don't cancel the contract, you will still have to pay the price every time their strength reaches a certain level."

"And the price is your life force."

"Have you never wondered why for thousands of years?"

"The three great princesses only set their sights on you, me, and Orochimaru?"

"The magic of Longdi Cave is indeed difficult to learn, but it takes a thousand years."

“No matter how difficult it is to learn, no matter how few people can get in, there are still a considerable number of people who can get in.”

"The reason why the three goddesses targeted us is because we have vitality that no one else can match."

"You are from the same lineage as Orochimaru, and you also possess medical ninjutsu."

"The cell activity and vitality in your body are naturally stronger than others, not to mention that you have mastered the secret technique of body replacement?"

"And the same is true for me."

"The most basic requirement of this worldly contract is that your vitality must be strong."

"Only in this way can we afford the cost of the three great goddesses appearing in the world."

"Orochimaru and I have both seen through the conspiracy, but you are the only one who has been blinded by power."

"I know what you have been avoiding for all these years. The Great Snake Sage once showed me the inner scene of the illusion when you passed the test of Princess Tsujin."

"Nono's death is indeed your fault."

"But the bigger mistake is that you misunderstood the deeper meaning of Nono's death."

"Nono didn't recognize you right away because Danzo tampered with the photo you handed back."

"He slowly replaced your photo with another person."

"But do you remember that Lord Nono asked you twice who you are?"

"Do you think she was really asking about your identity?"

"In fact, Nono-sama already knew who you were. That familiar feeling from childhood and the glasses."

"All of this has already let Lord Nono know your identity."

"The last time she asked you who you are, it was actually to awaken the true self hidden in your heart."

"She knew very well that 'Root' was a terrible abyss, and the longer she stayed in it."

"The more you lose track of who you really are, the more you will end up being reduced to an emotionless puppet controlled by Danzo."

"That's how she got sucked into this, step by step. She doesn't want you to follow her path."

"So she tried to wake you up with her own death."

"But what about you? You're blinded by hatred."

"Not being able to see one's own future, one is just blindly chasing after the so-called power that surpasses everyone else."

"The purpose of Nono-sama teaching you medical ninjutsu was not to let you use it for inhumane human experiments."

Kabuto Yakushi is on the verge of death, but the things he has done cannot just disappear.

So July said all this in public not entirely to judge his sins.

Instead, I want him to resolve his emotional issues before he dies.

After hearing July's words, Yakushi Kabuto's calm face finally changed.

He was clearly smiling at the moment, but his eyes contained sadness and tears.

It's telling that he...

But soon, Kabuto adjusted himself.

He raised his arms tremblingly and wiped away his tears.

"Thank you, thank you July."

"It turns out that my whole life has been spent walking down the wrong path."

"Now, it's time for me to pay the price."

"Konoha is her home, and it is also my home."

"Let my death end this sorrow of mistake."

After saying this, he started to make seals again.

But the speed was very slow, and the price of the contract in this world made his vitality fade away too quickly.

Being able to form seals is already a barely acceptable effort.

"I will help you to cancel the Impure World Reincarnation. This is the last good thing I can do for you and Konoha."

"Ban, you must be careful."

"Nagato is just a pawn of his. His goal is definitely not as simple as collecting the tailed beasts to dominate the ninja world."

"The plot behind this is very likely related to the legends of the Six Paths Sage's time."

"Unfortunately, I was unable to find out more specific information."

"The rest can only be left to you."

After saying this, the chakra in his body exploded for a moment.

After that, Yakushi Kabuto lowered his head and completely lost his breath.

The three goddesses were also sent back to Longchi Cave.

A crisis was resolved, but Dou's final words made July feel uneasy.
