Naruto : Reincarnated as Itachi Uchiha—Rise of the Uchiha Nation Chapter 91: 89) Pure Land

Itachi didn't reply to Hiruzen's question and took out a purple bead from his storage scroll. Although, Hiruzen didn't know what was inside it, he could feel an ominous presence it.

' STOP IT !!! I must stop him now, before it's too late !!!! '

Snake, Boar, Ram, Hare, Dog, Rat, Bird, Horse, Snake

Sealing Technique: Dead Demon Consuming Seal

The next mont a Shinigami appeared behind Hiruzen with a knife in its mouth. After it appeared, it pierced Hiruzen from behind locking Hiruzen's soul.

Itachi also sensed the arrival of Shinigami and looked at Hiruzen spitting blood.

' You want to die with , with the help of a re Shinigami ? '

Mangekyo : Tariff - 1000%

Iron Blood Coffin

The next mont, Hiruzen suddenly felt the consumption of chakra increase by more than ten tis and this was ten tis increase of a S-rank ninjutsu.

Before he could adapt with this sudden change, below him a vine made of iron filled with thorns wrapped his legs. Hiruzen couldn't counter because of Chakra instability within him and could only watch in pain as second by second, his body was wrapped by an Iron Tree, bleeding from thousands of cuts cause by the thorn in it.

" Sarutobi Hiruzen, let's see whether you die by the hands of Shinigami or by the coffin, I prepared for you. Either way, I will properly burry you underground as a respect for taking care of for all these years. "

Sarutobi Hiruzen : Should I be proud and say THANK YOU !!!!

Itachi ignored Hiruzen once again and concentrated on The Eye of Beelzebub. With the power of creation granted by Domain Expansion, Itachi started to change the shape and matter of the body of Moryo, while keeping it's immortal nature as well as other properties unchanged.

The next mont, an imnse suction force ca from the sphere as it absorbed Itachi's imnse Chakra as well as the natural energy and other mysterious energies around him.

Within monts, the original clear sky above konoha changed as black clouds covered the moon and complete darkness surrounded the ruins of Konoha.

" Descendant of Indra, wait " Just then, in the blink of an eye, Itachi found himself in a strange place. He could feel, he could get out of this place in an instant but hearing the word Indra, Itachi didn't struggle.

After looking around him, he found that he was on a sea with darkness all around him, in front of him a strange alien was sitting on air. Although, never t the alien before, Itachi knew the other party.

" Sage of Six Paths, what's your purpose in calling here ? "

"Verily, it seeth thou hast recognized , descendant of Indra, Uchiha Itachi.

What thou seekest to accomplish shall shatter the balance of this world.

More and more dost thou resemble Indra himself… or perchance even mine own mother, Kaguya Otsuts—"

" Speak Human Language or I will leave. " Hearing Sage of Six Path's ancient language, Itachi said with irritation.

" Ahem, I will try.....

It seems that you have recognised , descendant of Indra, Uchiha Itachi. What you are trying to do is breaking the balance of the world. You are starting to resemble more and more like Indra or .... even my mother Kaguya Otsusuki. "

" Why, for thousands of years, wars have plagued the Ninja world and tens of thousands die every year, I just killed a few more. Don't tell , a few more deaths will affect the world's balance. "

" It would have been good if you did only that. I wouldn't have spent huge amounts of energy to interfere in the mortal world just for that matter. But, you are interfering with the cycle of Life and Death, especially at such a large scale. "

Hearing this Itachi in the outside world who had now nearly condensed a purple-black spear paused for a mont and then continued without hesitation.

" Didn't the Second Hokage do the sa ? Even after thousands of years, you are not only biased towards Ashura but even his descendants ? "

" You know that's not the sa. Tobirama only summoned the soul from Pure Land for a short period of ti and it didn't affect the Cycle of Life and Death. You are devouring the souls of the deseased instead of letting it return to Pure Land, only to create a weapon ? "

Hearing the admonishnt from the Sage of Six Paths, Itachi looked away in slight embarassnt.

Well, originally he hadn't decided to cause such destruction over Konoha and leave after Nine-tails has caused so damage but, he noticed that after the destruction caused by Kurama ( controlled by him ) , his Divinity Influence had increased.

Under the increased Divinity Influence, he felt less and less empathy towards others ( people of Konoha ). Additionally, with the awakening of Complete Domain Expansion, he could sense a pure energy much more than anything he had seen in the past few minutes.

After a few experintations he realised that this energy is different than other normal chakra or elental energies. After conversion or usage the new object doesn't dissipate with the loss of supply of energy and this energy is superior to his own Chakra as well.

He then tried to make a sword with it and it's Sharpness and quality is many tis with the sa amount of other energy and if applied on an already made weapon, it amplifies its features.

After another minute of research he found that what he was using was a soul which was constantly disappearing and entering another dinsion full of souls, known famously as Pure Land.

Seeing this Itachi rembered his favourite ani character, Rimuru Tempest from Tensura who used souls as EXP and then thought whether to try to use it to strength himself like Rimuru but, ultimately he couldn't. First, even with increased Divinity Influence, he still felt disgust using such thods to gain strength. Second, he wouldn't gain much with his already peak level strength and last he had other ways.

So, he thought of making a weapon for himself like Totsuka Blade and other weapons as in the Ninja World, there isn't such a weapon that he could use against Six-paths Level enemy.

With such a weapon he could better deal with the threat of Isshiki and Otsusuki that were looming over his head for the past six months. And well, he felt like he was playing a ga, so he got carried away using his power to his fullest.

In his previous life there was a ga which simulated earth. You could throw nuclear bombs, planets, stars and black holes at earth. It would show the still living population and the destruction of the world. To him, the current situation is just like that.

" Well, what happens to the soul of the deseased in Pure Land ? " Itachi changed the topic and asked with curiosity.

" They dissipate into pure energy. "

" Then, there is no such things as reincarnation and other things like Heaven and Hell ? "

Itachi who unexpectedly got answer asked in return.

" Do you think Pure Land existed from the beginning ? "

" Hmmm, I don't know ? "

" You seem to know the past and even my mother very well. Then, let tell you about the even more ancient past.

Years before the arrival of my mother Kaguya Otsusuki, supernatural powers still existed. They used magic and natural energy as the base instead of chakra.

You might know about natural energy so let's skip it. Let's talk about magical energy, or in simpler terms Extre Yin energy or Soul energy. Although soul energy is very pure energy but, just like natural energy, it is poisonous to 99.9% of the creatures of this world.

But, the less than 0.1% that survive are many tis stronger than Sage Chakra Users. Previous to the formation of Pure Land, after a creature died, their souls would wonder in the living world until it naturally dissipates in the wild into soul energy.

If any creature gets into contact with it, they usually can't hold that corruptive power and die mixing their soul with that energy. If no one takes control or purifies that energy for too long, they give birth to consciousness. These consciousness were usually called gods by those people and they ruled over the world. One example is the Evil God, whose worshipper is Hidan, whom.you have captured.

But, afterwards they beca dissatisfied with living with other mortals so they waged wars against the other Magical power users who survived the magical corruption and Natural Holy Lands.

After exterminating all other supernatural power users, they used the imnse Soul power present after so many deaths of powerful individuals and created a separate dinsion for themselves. That dinsion was called Pure Land, a land where mortals desired to live, land free from those filthy mortal.

When mother arrived in this world she planted the Sacred Tree there first and only after it absorbed all those gods, did she plant it on our planet. Only because of this, even after the Sacred Tree sucked enough energy to make a planet a wasteland, the Ninja World is still survivable.

After I and my brother sealed Kaguya, I ruled over the Pure Land and to prevent the curse of ordinary people called Magical Power to appear again, I used Pure Land to attract their soul here which dissipate over ti. In pure land I prevent the formation of consciousness and thus its just Pure Power, which I can use in tis of ergency. "
