The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 470 Changes Too Fast

It's important to understand that for someone dedicated to scientific research, success is success, and side effects are side effects.

For a normal person, trying to turn gold back into stone is insane.

But from the perspective of scientific research, this is a success.

The reason why Beiliuhu dared to be so arrogant and disdainful of others stemmed from his deep-seated self-affirmation and confidence.

Back then, even the renowned Orochimaru asserted that Hiruko's experiments had no chance of success.

But what happened in the end? As it turned out, Hiruko delivered a resounding slap to Orochimaru's face with her actions.

However, it must be said that he has already achieved some results.

However, when he exerted his full strength to display his abilities several times, his body inevitably revealed some minor flaws and defects.

“Ugh… Ah… Ah…” The shrill, heart-wrenching screams echoed continuously within Mount Sumeru.

The sound was as if it came from the deepest hell, sending chills down one's spine.

However, strangely enough, it was Hiruko's scream that was heard.

But his voice contained a strong and resonant quality, which was completely unlike the weak state that someone suffering great pain should have.

Just then, a look of "I knew it" flashed across Black Zetsu's face, who had been observing from the shadows.

Then, without hesitation, he flashed into Mount Sumeru like a ghost.

At this moment, Hiruko was lying on the ground, rolling around wildly, his body twisted into all sorts of strange shapes, as if he was being tortured to the point of death by an invisible force.

On the experimental table not far from Hiruko, there were several used syringes and a pile of colorful syringes.

Clearly, Hiruko had injected himself with these unknown drugs in an attempt to achieve some purpose.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned. Judging from the current situation, these injections not only failed to have any effect, but also plunged Hiruko into even deeper suffering.

Even though Black Zetsu suddenly emerged from underground, Hiruko had no time to pay attention to this uninvited guest.

All his attention was focused on how to resist the surging, excruciating pain that was flooding his body.

Seeing this, Black Zetsu simply found a place to sit down with great interest and quietly watched Hiruko struggle and wail on the ground.

Time passed second by second, and after a full hour, Hiruko's intense pain finally began to subside.

At this moment, his whole body was a strange red color, as if he had just been boiled in boiling water, and his skin was even steaming.

Judging from his appearance alone, it is clear that his body is in an extremely abnormal state.

Surprisingly, once Hiruko's pain completely disappeared, he seemed to switch modes instantly.

One second he was in excruciating pain and almost went mad, but in the blink of an eye, he miraculously returned to calm.

It was as if all the suffering they had just experienced had never happened.

Why are you here?

Hiruko looked at Kuroze with suspicion, only to see that the guy had been standing quietly to the side for quite some time.

His heart sank, and his face instantly turned grim.

Black Zetsu had witnessed my weakened and pathetic state. If this guy harbored ill intentions and wanted to harm me...

Thinking of this, Hiruko's eyes became even more alert, staring intently at Heibu.

Facing Hiruko's wary gaze, Black Zetsu merely let out a hoarse, cold laugh, his tone carrying an undisguised mockery:

"Hehe... Don't worry, I have no ill intentions towards you. Otherwise, you would probably be dead by now."

Hearing this, Hiruko breathed a slight sigh of relief, but still dared not let his guard down.

After all, the person in front of them was unfathomable, and no one could guarantee that what he said was true.

However, Hiruko quickly regained his composure and adjusted his facial expression.

Because he knew very well that what Black Zetsu had just said was indeed true.

So he composed himself and asked, "How's the situation outside lately?"

At this moment, Black Zetsu's already deep voice became even more somber:

"I'm afraid your wish to take revenge on Konoha is going to be in vain."

"What do you mean?"

Upon hearing this, Beilu Hu's heart skipped a beat, and he eagerly pressed for an answer.

"The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, has been resurrected."

Black Zetsu slowly uttered these words.

"What!?"

Hiruko exclaimed in shock, "Namikaze Minato!?"

His voice involuntarily rose as memories of Minato Namikaze from his time in Konoha flashed through his mind.

At that time, Minato Namikaze was just an unknown nobody, but as time went by, he repeatedly performed great feats and his strength continued to improve.

Especially after he mastered the incredible Flying Thunder God Technique, he became even more formidable.

Ultimately, Minato Namikaze shone brightly in the Fourth Shinobi World War, and his outstanding achievements earned him the title of Fourth Hokage.

It is no exaggeration to say that Minato Namikaze relied on his own formidable strength back then.

He finally reached the pinnacle by stepping over the corpses of countless ninjas from Iwagakure and Kumogakure.

If he hadn't died unexpectedly, Konoha would probably be in a completely different state now.

Hiruko was well aware of Minato Namikaze's terrifying fighting prowess.

When Hiruko heard the news that Minato Namikaze might be resurrected, his first reaction was disbelief.

His eyes widened, and he exclaimed with a face full of suspicion, "Minato Namikaze has been dead for so many years, how could he possibly be resurrected?! This is simply absurd!"

His questioning was perfectly normal, since in his mind, death meant the end, especially for a powerful figure like Minato Namikaze who had been dead for many years.

However, Black Zetsu remained remarkably calm in the face of Hiruko's questioning, coldly replying:

What good would it do me to lie to you?

Beilu Hu was speechless for a moment. After thinking about it carefully, it seemed that the other party really had no reason to deceive him.

So he suppressed his surprise somewhat, but still asked with some skepticism:

"They've really come back to life?"

It's as if they need reaffirmation before they can fully accept this fact.

Seeing Hiruko's appearance, Black Zetsu nodded slightly, indicating that it was indeed true.

At this moment, Hiruko's face instantly turned gloomy. He frowned and pondered to himself:

If Minato Namikaze were to truly be resurrected, the external situation would likely undergo a dramatic transformation.
