Shinobi: I'm Really a Supportive Ninja - Chapter 380
c363 Arguments in the Pure Land.
The pure land is vast.
There are no gloomy winds or strange buildings, just silence and white snow.
But there was one thing that was very special, and both Hatake Akira and Orochimaru felt it.
Comfortable.
Yes, it is comfort, a comfort that comes from the depths of the soul.
“Mingjun, do you feel it too?”
Meeting Hatake Akira’s gaze, Orochimaru asked seriously.
“Well, the Pure Land is created for the soul, and it has a certain nourishing effect on the soul.”
“But Mingjun, I think that’s not all.”
Orochimaru rarely became very serious, “I completely believe what Mingjun said before.”
Orochimaru drew a large circle with his hands, “I don’t know how big the Pure Land is, but the Pure Land must have existed for a very long time, maybe a thousand years, or maybe ten thousand years.”
“Just imagine, there is no reincarnation in the Pure Land. Even if it accumulates for thousands of years, the number of souls in the Pure Land will be an astronomical number.”
“If those souls feel the nourishment of the power in the Pure Land just like us, then you can imagine… what kind of power the Pure Land contains!”
Listening to Orochimaru’s inference, Hatake Akira nodded in agreement, “That’s true. This is the purpose of our trip, isn’t it?”
Saying that, Hatake Akira continued to move forward, and Orochimaru followed closely behind.
As they walked, Hatake Akira and Orochimaru felt that the road ahead had become sticky, and each step required a lot of effort.
At the same time, human souls with completely different clothes and appearances appeared in front of their eyes.
Some are wearing Warring States costumes, some are wearing modern ninja clothes, and there are even some souls wearing beast skirts, dressing up as ancient humans.
Hatake Akira and Orochimaru looked at each other, and the two of them confirmed their suspicions.
But just when the two wanted to move forward, the two brothers Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura suddenly appeared beside them.
One on the left and one on the right, Hatake Akira and Orochimaru were sandwiched together, making it impossible for the two to escape.
Orochimaru’s soul trembled. He was fearless, but he was still a little timid after his life was threatened.
However, Hatake Akira didn’t mean to make fun of Orochimaru, but looked up and down at the brothers Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura.
“Why, are you healed from your injuries?”
“snort!”
Otsutsuki Hagororo snorted coldly and did not answer the question. Instead, he asked, “Hatake Akira, what is your purpose in suddenly coming to the Pure Land?”
“I want to investigate the feasibility of planting sacred trees in pure land.”
Hatake Ming told the truth and took up the ultimate weapon of sincerity.
Otsutsuki Hagoromo was stunned. He had thought a lot and prepared a lot before, but he didn’t expect Hatake Akira to be so straightforward and tell the truth all at once.
But after being stunned for a moment, he immediately came back to his senses, his expression even gloomier than before.
“Hatake Akira, I remember you promised me when you got the sacred tree seeds before that you would not plant sacred trees in the ninja world!”
“Old man Yuyi, I think I did not break my previous oath.”
Hatake Akira shook his head and pointed at the various souls floating around, “Tell me, is this the ninja world?”
Before Otsutsuki Hagoromo could reply, Hatake Akira spoke again.
“This is obviously not the ninja world.”
“The Ninja World is the world of the living, while the Pure Land is the destination of the dead. The two do not interfere with each other.”
“In that case, my planting a sacred tree in the pure land has nothing to do with my previous vows.”
Listening to Hatake Akira’s sophistry, Otsutsuki Hagoromo wished he could have another fight with Hatake Akira.
But thinking about Akira Hatake’s methods before, he still felt unsure and didn’t think he could beat Akira Hatake.
Therefore, Otsutsuki Hagoromo began to escape, trying to persuade Hatake Akira to return to his lost ways.
“Hatake Akira, you are right, the Ninja world is not unrelated to the Pure Land.”
“But have you ever thought about the impact that planting a sacred tree in the pure land will have on the many souls that exist here?!”
“And can you guarantee that after unforeseen changes occur in the Pure Land, the ninja world will be safe and sound?”
“Indeed, the two do not interfere with each other, but they are also interdependent. Without the Pure Land, or if there is a problem with the Pure Land, where will the souls of the dead in the ninja world go?”
Hatake Akira looked deeply at Otsutsuki Hagoromo, and instead of rushing to refute, he asked him a question.
“Old man Hagoromo, do you know about reincarnation?”
“I think you know.” Still before Otsutsuki Hagoromo could answer, Hatake Akira began to ask himself questions again.
“Since the Samsara Eye has the word “reincarnation”, I believe you should have some understanding of it.”
“The relationship between the Pure Land and the Ninja World is very subtle. The Pure Land is like the trash can of the Ninja World. It contains the souls that cannot be digested and processed by the Ninja World.”
“Although this metaphor is somewhat inappropriate, it can still illustrate the problem.”
Uchiha Shigeaki gestured with his hands, drew three circles, one large, one medium, and one small, and put them together.
“Old man Hagoromo, look at this big circle. It is the planet that contains the world of tolerance and the pure land. It is the foundation of everything.”
“And the circle in the middle represents the ninja world. It is the most intuitive manifestation of this planet and the foundation of this planet.”
“The last one is the Pure Land, which acts as a “garbage dump” and is responsible for dealing with the souls of the dead that the ninja world cannot handle.”
“But! Something went wrong with it…”
Akira Hatake pointed to the last circle, “Everyone knows that if you just store it without processing it, there will be a risk of overflow or even bursting. Pure Land will naturally face this problem as well.”
“So what’s the best solution?”
Uchiha Shigeaki stretched out his hand and opened an opening in the small circle, and then drew a curve to connect the circle in the middle that represented the ninja world.
“Yes, it’s the cycle.”
“The soul of the king that cannot be processed by the Ninja World is processed by the Pure Land and then reappears in the Ninja World through a specific channel. This not only solves the crisis in the Pure Land, but also does the world a big favor!”
Akira Hatake pointed to the outermost circle again, “The total amount of power in the world is fixed, and these powers are dispersed throughout the world to maintain the operation of the world.”
“So what does it mean that the world is working?”
“It’s the alternation of life and death!”
Uchiha Shigeaki looked at Otsutsuki Hagoromo and the Hamura brothers seriously, “I remember you two said that life and death cannot be easily reversed, otherwise the rules of the world’s operation will be broken and some dangers will occur.”
“Obviously, being able to say this means that you also understand the rules of the world and have some basic understanding of them.”
“But have you ever considered that the soul in the Pure Land can only enter and exit? It is constantly consuming the power of the world, which is self-weakening, and even more self-destructive!”
“this……”
Hearing Hatake Akira say this, Otsutsuki Hagoromo could not remain calm.
“Indeed, I have been in the Pure Land for a thousand years, and I can clearly feel that the power of the Pure Land is strengthening, while the power of the Ninja World is weakening.”
“But then again, even so, the total amount of power in this world has not changed. It’s just that the left hand is replaced by the right hand. Both the ninja world and the pure land are part of this world.”
“ha!”
Hatake Akira laughed angrily at Otsutsuki Hagoromo’s remarks, “Old man Hagoromo, I really don’t blame you for saying that, you really are getting better and better as you live!”
“From a macro perspective, the power of the world has indeed not been consumed, but the weakening of the power of the ninja world is the biggest drain on the world!”
Looking up and down at Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Hamura brothers, Hatake Akira looked unkind and said, “You two, don’t forget that to deal with the Otsutsuki clan outside the sky, we don’t rely on these souls in the pure land, but on those in the ninja world! ”
“So, when I say this, do you understand?”
