Chapter 538 Bait
Chapter 538 Bait
"No one knows what power he possesses or what his purpose is, but what is certain is that his existence is undoubtedly a huge disaster for the entire ninja world."
"Therefore, in order to restore the ninja world to its former normal order and peace, we must do everything we can to completely eliminate this outsider."
When the last sentence was finished, Luo Sha, who had been listening quietly, suddenly brightened up, as if he had seen a ray of light in the darkness.
He didn't care where Qian Yao came from, nor did he care whether the other party would bring any so-called calamity.
The only thing that mattered to him was the fact that the Sage of Six Paths wanted to eliminate Uchiha Chiyo.
Therefore, Luo Sha, being very perceptive, quickly asked:
"I wonder if there is anything I can do for Lady Yuyi?"
Yu Yi nodded slightly in satisfaction, after all, communicating with intelligent people could indeed save a lot of trouble.
Feathered Robe said softly:
"This operation requires your help to lure Uchiha Chiyo to the location of the Dragon Vein."
Upon hearing the words "dragon vein," Luo Sha's face showed a thoughtful expression, as if he was quickly analyzing the relevant situation in his mind.
After a brief pause, he responded decisively:
"I understand, then I'll go and act as bait!"
Rasa was well aware that Sunagakure was now in a very difficult situation.
If he can successfully help eliminate Uchiha Chiyo, then perhaps he can make up for the mistakes he made this time.
At least, I shouldn't be purged.
……
When Luo Sha opened his eyes again, not much time had passed outside.
He even suspected that everything he had experienced before was just a dream.
However, he soon noticed that the chakra injected into his body by the feather robe was slowly flowing.
At that moment, a surge of joy welled up in his heart—this was not a dream, but something that had actually happened!
As chakra circulated and flowed through his meridians, his originally severe injuries began to heal at an astonishing speed.
At the same time, Luo Sha's mental state also improved significantly.
With hope, Luo Sha was filled with a new vitality and fighting spirit.
"Give me the map!"
Luo Sha instructed Ma Ji, who was standing beside him.
Zhan Maji was not surprised by this, because he knew that Luo Sha had examined the map repeatedly before.
Machi took out the map and unfolded it.
Luo Sha's fingers began to slide incessantly across the map surface, as if searching for some crucial clue or target.
Finally, after a careful search, Luo Sha's finger stopped at a specific spot.
That is the legendary Loulan.
According to relevant records and intelligence, the dragon vein is hidden beneath this ancient land.
The so-called dragon vein is a collection of massive, surging energy flows from underground.
For a time, Sunagakure also had designs on this dragon vein.
However, although Loulan is located within the Land of Wind, it is not an uncontrolled land. In fact, it has always been firmly controlled by a group of Loulan descendants.
Although these Loulan descendants are not numerous, they possess the power to control the dragon veins and can create enormous and incredibly powerful puppets to fight.
As a result, their overall combat strength should not be underestimated.
Moreover, if the dragon vein is accidentally triggered to go berserk, it will bring about a devastating disaster.
Because Sunagakure is relatively lacking in sealing techniques, even if they obtain the Dragon Vein, they will find it difficult to effectively utilize and control it.
Later, when Loulan fell into turmoil, it was Minato Namikaze from Konoha who finally came to the rescue and successfully sealed the dragon vein completely.
At that time, Minato Namikaze had not yet assumed the position of Fourth Hokage, but he was already a candidate for the position.
Besides his famous Flying Thunder God Technique, Minato Namikaze is also skilled in sealing techniques.
It was precisely because of the powerful seal he placed that it became impossible for Sunagakure to remove the seal while ensuring that the dragon vein would not go berserk.
Thus, the powerful energy contained within the dragon vein has remained trapped in the seal, and has yet to see the light of day again.
Today, Loulan has long since become a desolate and dilapidated ruin, with only broken walls remaining to bear witness to its past glory and vicissitudes.
In the vast desert, the fierce winds, carrying sand and dust, erode the land at an alarming rate.
Those unmaintained areas will be buried by thick yellow sand in the blink of an eye.
Unless one is familiar with the terrain and has extensive experience like someone from Sunagakure, finding this hidden place would be extremely difficult.
Even if one were to be lucky enough to find this place, it would probably be difficult to recognize its true nature.
Because all that could be seen was a golden color, with no distinguishable features whatsoever.
"Everyone, rest for two hours before setting off!"
After carefully surveying the area and confirming the location, Rasa gave instructions to the Sunagakure villagers who were resting.
Although the morale of the Sunagakure faction was somewhat low at this time, they still chose to obey Rasa's orders.
Upon hearing the instructions, everyone responded in unison and immediately found a relatively comfortable spot to rest and recuperate.
Luo Sha did not rest with them. Instead, he walked towards Ma Ji, pulled him to his side, and asked:
Is it still possible to contact Yekura and the others?
Faced with Luo Sha's sudden question, Maki's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.
Why contact Ye Cang and the others at this moment?
Shouldn't they have split up and fled for their own lives?
However, despite his doubts, Machi knew Rosa's character and style well, so he answered honestly:
“We have some sand lizards here that we can use as communication tools, but they can only transmit messages to let Yekura and the others come and meet us.”
It turns out that these sand lizards are a very special species. After the male and female pair up and live together for a full year, they develop a wonderful telepathic connection with each other.
If one of them dies, the surviving sand lizard will not only cut off its own tail, but will also run wildly in the direction its mate died.
As soon as Maki kills the sand lizard, Yekura, who is far away on the other side, will know immediately and rush over to join them.
At this moment, Luo Sha lowered his voice and said:
"Come closer." His expression was slightly gloomy, as if he were hiding some major secret.
Maki paused for a moment, then carefully tilted his ear closer to Rosa.
Rasa then recounted in a very low voice the story of the Sage of Six Paths—Hagoromo Otsutsuki—coming to see him.
