Chapter 187 Wishing you boundless happiness and prosperity
"If you ask me directly like that, I don't know either."
"Don't you know it yourself? Can't you recognize your current state?"
Bai Mo asked a question in return.
"If we could maintain this state more often..."
Tsunade only said half of what she meant, but her meaning was already very clear.
"I know you want to ask if it's 'immortality.' Is it that hard to say those two words? Are you afraid that Orochimaru, who desires immortality, might hear you and become envious and jealous?"
"..."
Tsunade had become completely numb to Bai Mo's straightforwardness.
You can talk about something like this so casually.
Doesn't Bai Mo have any thoughts of his own?
This power clearly originated from him.
"Upholding the rigor of scientific research, my answer remains the same—I don't know."
Under Tsunade's anxious and expectant gaze, Bai Mo uttered those three words again, causing Tsunade to immediately deflate: "How come you don't know anything?"
If you don't know, just use mugwort!
"Because I'm unsure of the planet's lifespan, whether there's an upper limit."
Bai Mo shrugged.
In my previous life, not to mention planets, even the universe was deduced to have a lifespan, existing only for 330 billion years.
Strictly speaking, even if one could die alongside the universe, that wouldn't be "immortality," but at most, it would only be "living as long as the heavens."
If we extrapolate based on the lifespan of planets, and the sun could have existed for over 5 billion years in its previous life, then the Earth could have existed for at most 5 billion years.
Of course, these underlying laws of the ninja world are different, and the lifespan of planets has never been calculated.
Not to mention that Earth in the ninja world has extremely unique characteristics, and even the Divine Tree cannot absorb it dry.
That's hard to say.
That's why Bai Mo answered with "I don't know".
Extremely rigorous.
"you mean?!"
Tsunade's eyes widened.
"That's right, here's a congratulatory message for you: May you live as long as the evergreen pine of the Southern Mountain and have as boundless happiness as the flowing waters of the Eastern Sea."
Bai Mo smiled and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"Uh-huh."
Tsunade's expression was somewhat awkward.
That sounds nice, but doesn't this seem more suitable for an elderly person's birthday banquet?
and many more.
Tsunade's embarrassed expression froze instantly.
She suddenly remembered a word that Bai Mo had said before.
[Silly Lucky].
It's not that fools have good luck.
It actually means another kind of insult.
That's just a more tactful way of putting it.
So here's the question.
The "福" in "[傻福]" actually means that word.
So Bai Mo's blessing to her, "May your happiness be as boundless as the Eastern Sea," suddenly took on a different meaning!
Tsunade opened her mouth, but hesitated to speak.
If she says it now, and Bai Mo immediately denies it, wouldn't that mean she's admitting that she misunderstood?
Helpless, Tsunade could only keep it to herself.
"Alright, alright. Since you're so skilled at controlling natural energy, let me rest for a bit before going in again. You can try to feel it a few times and see if you can master it yourself."
"I'll teach a few medical classes here for the next few days; consider it a paid vacation."
Tsunade waved her hand, no longer dwelling on these matters.
"I'm really sorry, you won't be able to take a vacation."
Bai Mo took out a list from his body, flipped through it, and said, "There's a mission. You and Guang have to come with me."
"?"
Tsunade pointed at herself with a look of astonishment, "It's already outrageous enough that you brought the Hokage to the village to teach, and now you want me to do missions for you?"
Tsunade said, "I don't do a single quest in my own village."
"What's wrong with the Hokage? Didn't you see the Second Hokage is here at the research institute working as a scientist, while the First Hokage is out sweeping the streets?"
"what?"
Tsunade understood the first part of the sentence, since she was currently in Orochimaru and her great-uncle Tobirama's laboratory.
But what does the second half of the sentence mean?
"This place is quite harmonious, there are no bandits or robbers, and my brother has no use for his strength. As for his brain... he doesn't have that kind of thing."
So he can't do anything.
He felt awkward just sitting around, so he took on small tasks that ordinary ninjas could do.
Tobirama Senju provided an explanation.
Although he's been spending most of his time in the lab these days, he still cares a lot about his older brother, Hashirama.
Since returning from Kirigakure, Hashirama Senju had nothing to do, so he could only imitate the future Seventh Hokage, Naruto Uzumaki, and spend his days using his wood clones to take on the work of genin.
Furthermore, Hashirama Senju did not ask for any reward; he confiscated all the rewards he received and patted Kakuzu on the shoulder with a kind expression, telling him to focus on building up the village and the country.
Kakuzu was completely bewildered at the time.
The First Hokage didn't seem to recognize him.
I even had him do his jobs and tasks.
Although the pay for a genin mission isn't much.
"..."
Tsunade, left with no choice but to compromise, glanced at the item in Bai Mo's hand: "Speak, what's the mission? Where are we going? What are we doing?"
"Let's go somewhere nearby first."
Bai Mo walked to the side, pulled out a map, and pointed at it.
The country of ghosts.
"Uh, what do you mean by 'first' going to the nearest place?"
Tsunade sensed something was wrong.
She didn't really care about where she was going.
She had no recollection of this small country.
"It's nothing. This 'first' is just something I told myself. I didn't intend for you to follow me around forever."
Bai Mo casually patted the map and walked towards the gate.
He brought Tsunade along this time only to take advantage of her newly acquired ability and make her a healer for the group.
Of course, it's not about healing him or light.
Bai Mo himself possesses the Crazy Diamond ability to repair himself and heal a single person, making it much simpler than Tsunade's current struggle to replenish life force.
The Land of Demons is located below the Land of Earth and the Land of Snow, sandwiched between the two countries, and is also a small country.
As for why Bai Mo went to the Land of Ghosts?
Two days ago, "Black Zetsu" brought some news after returning from watching a movie.
Black Zetsu said that the chakra from the dragon veins within the Gedo Mazo is still some distance from being fully converted into tailed beast chakra, and there will be some loss during the conversion process.
"Black Zetsu" has searched through its thousand-year memories and found many things that can be used as sources of chakra. If it collects the chakra from these things, it will not only not be insufficient, but will even have a surplus.
They can keep the excess chakra for other uses.
"Black Zetsu" saying this means that he has completely approved of Bai Mo's plan.
And she said the dragon vein's chakra wasn't enough, that it was "almost there," so it must really be almost there.
The former Black Zetsu did indeed have various special things in his memories, including the Six Paths Ninja Tools, but none of these things were of any use to him.
Now, based on these memories, the current "Black Zetsu" has compiled a list.
One of them is the demon from the land of demons.
It seems to have a very high-class image, but it is a tentacle monster that has been sealed away for countless years and is capable of destroying the world at will.
In reality, if you think about it, no matter how powerful this demon is, it still uses chakra.
That means this guy has never existed before, no more than a thousand years ago, and appeared many years after Kaguya Otsutsuki descended.
Since it uses chakra, then it should be the target of the Eight Thousand Spears' absorption.
