Chapter 663 The Slug Immortal's Betrayal

Sakura shouted desperately, but Lee couldn't respond. "Lee, stop joking with me. That kind of joke is no good. If you don't get up, I'll get angry!"

At this moment, she desperately hoped that Xiao Li was joking with her, but she knew that Xiao Li would never joke with her like that.

Her heart felt like it was splitting open, and the pain spread through her body, unconsciously flowing from the corners of her eyes and quickly covering her entire face.

So, she's fallen in love with Xiao Li?

Without realizing it, she had come to regard Xiao Li as a part of her life.

"Little Lee, Rock Lee!"

Shifting the focus to the other side, Kakashi Hatake had just opened a can of beer when he saw Might Guy already slumped over the table.

"Really, just like your apprentice. Just one bottle of beer and you're this drunk." Kakashi Hatake didn't mock him. He simply stepped forward, covered his friend with his Hokage robe, and then leaned against the door bolt, watching the battle in the sky.

"What a bunch of awkward, immature brats, trying to convince others with their own logic. But in the end, they can't convince anyone and can only fight." With that, he shook his head, turned around, and went back into the house.

Seeing that Matt Kai was lying on the table, sleeping in that position must be very uncomfortable, I picked him up and carried him on my shoulder.

However, he noticed that the other person's body was not as supple as it would be after drinking; rather, his limbs were slightly stiff.

Suddenly, his body stiffened, as if he realized something. He laid the person back flat on the table, and only then did he notice that Matt Kai had been keeping his eyes open, but his eyes had long since lost their light.

"Dead? You certainly know how to find the time." Kakashi Hatake gulped down a mouthful of beer, then tossed your joint aside. "But it's a good thing someone like you died; at least you won't have to endure the subsequent suffering. Heh, heh heh!"

Kakashi Hatake laughed to himself, unsure whether it was sadness or joy.

Rewind to a minute earlier, when a small slug, seemingly possessed by a spirit, came to the outside world.

As soon as she appeared, she was spotted and captured by the patrolling members.

She quickly raised her body and said, "My lords, please don't attack! Please don't attack! I am the Slug Sage. I have important matters to discuss with your leader. I have come to pledge my allegiance."

"Slug Sage, haha, you've really caught a big fish."

"No, no, no! I'm not a big fish, I'm a slug."

But in the end, her body was still chained, bound hand and foot, sealed, and after several transfers, delivered to Aburame Shicheng.

"Master Shisei Aburame!" The little slug crawled on the ground.

"Slug Sage, why aren't you staying in your Wet Bone Forest? What are you doing here?"

"Because I've been reading recently and came across a very interesting saying: 'A wise man submits to circumstances.' My lord, I've realized that Konoha's ship is completely rotten, and I don't want to sink with it."

"Oh." Aburame Zhicheng hadn't expected that the seemingly most honest slug immortal would be so clean and efficient when it came to selling people.

"So, what kind of bargaining chips will you choose to use to pledge allegiance to me?"

"My lord, I have collected a considerable amount of blood from the people of Konoha. It was all collected when I needed it, and it is very well preserved. I believe you will find it useful!"

Aburame Shisei took it and found that there were indeed nearly sixty human blood samples, among which the most eye-catching were Rock Lee and his master Matt Ke.

"I know you're not afraid of Li and his apprentice, but their martial arts skills still pose a threat to you. It would be best if we could eliminate the danger beforehand."

Aburame Shisei nodded. In fact, this was one of the reasons why he had not yet conquered Konoha Village. The two of them, Master and Apprentice Lee, had all taken the second-generation insect medicine and the third-generation insect medicine.

Moreover, in terms of physical abilities, they have long since broken free from the control of the nanobots, so even without opening one gate, their physical abilities alone are enough to make them Kage-level. Once all eight gates are opened, they will be quite difficult to deal with.

However, being able to eliminate them before the door is opened is a rare and good thing.

Aburame Shicheng sat up from the chair, slowly walked to the little slug, and finally placed one hand on her head.

"However, this is not enough! I need your entire body. You have such a huge body and such a huge amount of energy, but you haven't been able to use it at all. You might as well give it to me."

The little slug trembled upon hearing this. "Sir, you wouldn't break your promise and abandon me after using me, would you? I've heard the saying, 'A person without integrity cannot stand!'"

"Don't worry, I only want your body, I won't touch your consciousness. What do you want to be in your next life? A slug or a human? But if you become a slug, you'll probably become an insect that can be trampled to death."

The little slug was sweating profusely.

"Sir, I didn't have a choice before. But now I want to be a human being!"

Yes, she had already figured out the Nine Dragons Transformation technique, but that thing was ultimately created by humans, and hers was too magical, making it very difficult to cultivate.

If she were to be reborn as a human and start over, she believed that with her millennia of wisdom, she could also obtain the power of the Nine Dragons.

As for when she lost faith in Konoha, it was probably when the Divine Tree began to grow wildly, the Holy Land was in grave danger, and Naruto took her sacrifices and kindness for granted, only saying thank you in the end, and even brainwashing her to continue contributing to Konoha.

Furthermore, she wasn't Konoha's property, so it can't be called betrayal.

"Very well, then sign a contract with me and summon your enormous body."

The little slug nodded slightly, but still reminded him, "Sir, I think you should find more manpower; my body is very large."

"No need, I'm enough on my own!"

Aburame Zhicheng flew out of the palace and came to an open space. He formed a hand seal and slammed his hands heavily on the ground.

"Summoning magic, give it to me!"

With a loud bang, the slug immortal's enormous body crashed to the ground.

When the little slug returned to the Slug Sage's body, the slug itself already knew all the memories.

"Lord Zhicheng, I am willing to offer my entire body, but I hope you will keep your promise and give me a human body."

"Don't worry, I never lie." Aburame Shicheng took out the White Hole Worm from his spatial storage. Then, his consciousness condensed into a hook, outlining its consciousness and memories, and projecting them into the White Hole.

In a remote tribe, a hairless baby girl was born.

"Hairless...monster...is divine punishment...a sacrifice...to the gods..."
