Chapter 165 - Bai Ye Must Die

Bai Ye had arrived in Konoha!!!

With Uzumaki Naruto making a huge commotion throughout the village, everyone in Konoha now knew that Bai Ye had shown up, and the news instantly caused an uproar.

To this terrifying figure—someone like the Zeus of the ninja world, or Konoha's very own Duan Zhengchun*—most people trembled inside and wished he would just die.(*T/N: Duan Zhengchun is a notorious womanizer from Jin Yong's works.)

Especially the female characters in the book—those who had been trained by Bai Ye's taijutsu, hypnotized by his genjutsu, NTR'd, toyed with right in front of their husbands, dominated…

Ever since this book appeared, a considerable number of the women in it had been so terrified that they stayed locked inside their homes, not daring to step out for fear that Bai Ye might suddenly pop out of nowhere, strip them, and consume them.

Countless people wanted to see how the Hokage would deal with this. But in the end, the Hokage made no response at all. Everything continued as usual.

And so Bai Ye settled down in Konoha just like that. Someone even saw him check into an inn.

But this outcome was simply unacceptable to the villagers.

"Why didn't the Hokage-sama kill that Bai Ye immediately?"

Inside an izakaya, a middle-aged man slapped the wooden table hard. "That guy's destructive power is countless times more terrifying than Uchiha Madara!"

"That's right! Could it be that Hokage-sama has already fallen under Bai Ye's mental control?" a villager asked anxiously.

"Just look at him—so frail he looks like a gust of wind could blow him over. He doesn't even have chakra in the book, just relies on his face to bluff and swindle, yet he still does all those vile things. Why keep someone like that alive?"

Everyone inside the shop erupted in angry discussion—there was fury at Bai Ye's depravity, but also jealousy that he enjoyed so many women.

And the problem was—this guy has no strength, has done every bad thing imaginable, so how did he even survive until the end of the book? How is that fair!?

"I can't take it anymore. Let's go protest to Hokage-sama. We can lose the Ninja World War, but Bai Ye must die!" someone shouted.

The crowd's emotions surged. Everyone began chanting, "We can lose the Ninja World War, but Bai Ye must die!" as they marched toward the Hokage building.

Very quickly, the group grew larger and larger. As more people read the Book of Prophecy, Bai Ye's number of haters kept rising. Before long, hundreds of people had gathered.

"Tch, boring."

Inside the inn, Bai Ye glanced at the crowd and curled his lip. The scene felt oddly familiar—like something he'd seen somewhere before.

"Bai Ye-kun is truly broad-minded, not angry at all."

At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared behind him, wearing a stiff smile on his pale face.

"They're nothing more than weaklings with short lifespans—barely a hundred years if they're lucky. If I wished, I could wipe them out with a wave of my hand. Whether they live or die depends entirely on my mood."

Bai Ye slowly turned around and looked at the pale man in front of him. "Orochimaru, shouldn't you be preparing for your Konoha Crush Plan? What are you doing here?"

Orochimaru gave a cold, twisted smile. "All my plans have already been exposed, even Kabuto was captured by Konoha. The risks are too high. I've given up."

So the contents of the book weren't fully comprehensive after all. Orochimaru studied the youth before him, feeling a strong sense of threat.

Just as he suspected—even though the book never explicitly described Bai Ye fighting, only saying he possessed innate divine strength, infinite stamina, unmatched effectiveness on women, able to handle a hundred girls a night, unstoppable by any number of women…

Anyone who could survive easily until the end, and toy with all the beauties of the ninja world along the way, couldn't possibly be weak.

Thinking of the fact that his current body was also female, even Orochimaru felt uneasy. If Bai Ye suddenly got interested… wouldn't he get bent over too?

Feeling nervous, Orochimaru forced two dry laughs. "As a fellow villain who also survived until the end, I simply came to propose an alliance."

"An alliance?"

"Yes. Bai Ye-kun, you should be aware of your reputation in the ninja world right now. Trying to chase women like in the original story is impossible, and with the Third Hokage's indecisiveness, even if he doesn't attack you, you absolutely can't stay in Konoha for long."

"In time, you will become the target of the entire ninja world. The threats you face will be enormous. All the major villages, the Akatsuki, and even Black Zetsu hate you to the bone. Anyone connected to a female character from the book wants to kill you as fast as possible."

"You cannot handle all of that alone. Why not join forces with me?" Orochimaru suggested.

"And the price?" Bai Ye asked.

"Immortality." Orochimaru licked his lips. "As the most mysterious figure in the book, Bai Ye-kun surely possesses a method of eternal life."

"Oh? And what makes you think that?" Bai Ye's lips curled slightly.

"Although the book never states it clearly, from the scattered hints, I can conclude that Mister Bai's lifespan far surpasses that of ordinary people," Orochimaru said.

He even suspected Bai Ye might be an Ōtsutsuki. If he weren't unsure whether he could take Bai Ye down, he would've attacked already.

"Well, your guess is correct. Lifespan has never been a problem for me." Bai Ye smiled as he looked at his own lifespan number reaching into the billions. "But the benefits you offer are far too little."

"The crisis you speak of has never been an issue for me." Bai Ye stepped forward slowly. "Did it ever occur to you that I might actually be stronger than all of you combined?"

The next second, Orochimaru's expression changed and he retreated explosively. But after only two steps, a hand landed on his shoulder.

Bai Ye had somehow appeared behind him. "Whether it's you, Uchiha Madara, or the so-called Ōtsutsuki clan, none of you are even worth my attention. If I wished, I could rely on overwhelming force and recreate all the acts I performed in the book."

"The only reason I'm speaking calmly with you now is that I'm not being serious."

As Bai Ye let go, Orochimaru immediately stepped back cautiously. The difference was too great—he hadn't even noticed when Bai Ye moved.

"Seems I overthought it. Bai Ye-kun is far more dangerous than he appears. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Orochimaru turned to slip away, never expecting that the most hidden figure in the entire book was Bai Ye himself.

"Don't be in such a hurry. Our cooperation may still continue," Bai Ye said. "I think your Konoha Crush Plan can still proceed."

"What do you mean?" Orochimaru froze.

"It's simple. Don't you think Konoha has gotten too… urbanized?" Bai Ye smiled. "I won't be staying in this world much longer, so before I leave, I want to fulfill Sasuke Uchiha's wish."

"First kill Uchiha Itachi…Then destroy Konoha."
