I started my horror resurgence from Naruto

Chapter 51 The Well in the Dark

It was dark, cold, and damp. Ghostly tree branches overlapped and bared their fangs and claws. All kinds of insects lived under the rotten leaves. The wind from all directions had a sobbing sound. In short... the forest shrouded in night naturally had an atmosphere of horror and suspense.

Besides,

This forest is also named with the prefix of death!

The four soles of his shoes crushed the leaves, and the corpses of several insects were imprinted on the muddy soles when he raised his feet. Hinata Naraku slapped his trouser legs with a gloomy face and killed an ant that was desperately trying to climb up.

"There are too many insects in the forest at night." Hinata Naraku complained with a frown.

The pale moonlight cast a slanted shadow behind him, in which a pair of embroidered shoes invisible to outsiders followed closely. The rise and fall frequency of the embroidered shoes overlapped perfectly with Hinata Naraku's pace.

The shadow changed into irregular shapes along with the leaf-covered terrain. Whenever it was stepped on by Morino Ibiki, it would quietly dodge. It was the ghost call embedded in the shadow that was controlling it mischievously. She was a little bit of a germaphobe and didn't want dust to fall into her "home".

"It's much better now. When I was a kid, the perverts of the Aburame clan used the entire forest as their base for breeding and breeding insects." Morino Ibiki recalled the disgusting feeling of half of his leg being sunk into the pile of insect corpses when he stepped on it, and sneered, "Maybe there are still abandoned insect nests under the ground somewhere in the forest."

Maybe,

The name of the Death Forest was born from that time, but it is already a thing of the past. Now, Hinata Naraku is not sure whether there is an insect nest underground, but it is true that there is a maze of alien nests underneath, and it is still expanding.

From the moment Hinata Naraku stepped into the forest of death, the alien creatures underground noticed it at the first moment, and now they are following him like a ghost through the thick base layer.

Considering that [the alien's intimacy level has dropped to bad], Hinata Naraku feels that this alien is most likely not coming to him with good intentions.

The reason why it is still suppressed and has not suddenly broken out of the ground is:

On the one hand, as the object that was revived and parasitized by Hyuga Naraku himself, the alien would instinctively have some residual gratitude and awe towards Hyuga Naraku;

On the other hand, it was out of fear of Morino Ibiki who was following Hinata Naraku at the moment. After all, the hunting process in these days also made the alien understand that the humans on this planet possessed an attack power that was completely incompatible with their weak bodies.

Unfortunately, when the alien was born from the host it parasitized, the fragment of genes intercepted could not provide it with the complete ability to use chakra.

This is probably because the generation and use of chakra does not simply depend on the expression of a single fragment, but requires the coordinated expression of all genes, and may also require acquired learning and refinement. It is not an instinct that can be directly inherited.

of course,

The intercepted gene gave the alien [Cataract] the bloodline limit, but in the alien's perception, the gene itself was also incomplete and needed to be completed urgently.

Unfortunately, how to make up for this genetic defect is the Hyuga family's deepest secret, and the alien has no way of knowing it.

2 hours later.

At the door of a closed tower in the center of the Death Forest, Morino Ibiki's face looked extremely ugly, and Hyuga Naraku also had a gloomy face. He rubbed his sore and swollen eye sockets. Keeping his eyes open for a long time was very stressful, and the blood vessels supplying blood around him were about to burst.

"I didn't find it!"

Hinata Naraku's dejected expression carried a hint of unwilling anger.

"I have carefully searched the entire Death Forest with my White Eyes, but why can't I find the well? Is the well really in the Death Forest?"

Morino Ibiki said coldly: "Are you sure you have searched the entire Death Forest?"

Hinata Naraku nodded and replied: "Of course, I have scanned every corner that can be seen on the ground with my Byakugan. Unless, the well is not on the ground, but buried by layers of soil, then even the Byakugan cannot see into the ground. Or, only those who accept the invitation of that woman will be allowed to see the well?"

Morino Ibiki pondered in silence. He admitted that the possibility of what Hyuga Naraku said existed, but it was more likely that Hyuga Naraku was deceiving him and was unwilling to take him to the location of the well, just like he was unwilling to share the videotape with him.

"Have you found a way to accept the test?" Hinata Naraku asked, staring at Morino Ibiki.

Morino Ibiki calmly met Hinata Naraku's gaze and said irritably: "I have searched through all the relics left by Morino Keda, but still can't find any relevant clues."

Two people with ulterior motives are both acting, but the difference is that their goals are actually completely opposite.

There was a brief, oppressive silence.

Morino Ibiki broke the silence and suddenly changed the subject: "Because the Hokage came to me and asked me something about you."

"Huh?" Hinata Naraku was stunned.

"I didn't reveal our shared secret to him, but I found a way to make him believe that you had nothing to do with the [Illusion Murder Case]." Morino Ibiki paused and continued, "I also told the Hokage what I thought of you after the investigation during this period. In short, you are a person who lives under the shadow of Oudoudou, who is resentful, selfish and extreme."

Hinata Naraku pondered for a moment, thinking that Sarutobi Hiruzen was most likely preparing to throw bait to him to seduce him. On the surface, he looked at Morino Ibiki with a complicated expression and uttered the word "thank you" against his will.

"You're welcome. I'm just telling you the truth." Morino Ibiki suppressed his inner anxiety and said to Hinata Naraku in a calm tone, "I've heard too many dark stories in the interrogation room that you can't imagine, so I deeply understand that human nature is mostly selfish. That's fine, I understand it very well, but I also hope you understand that the premise of gaining power is to stay alive. Without my help, even if you really find the well with your own strength, what can you do? It's just sending yourself to die in vain."

There was a slight evasive look in Hyuga Naraku's eyes, which was seen by Morino Ibiki. He understood that Hyuga Naraku's psychological defenses had been loosened.

"You're right, but I really didn't find the well." Hinata Naraku avoided Morino Ibiki's gaze and refused to admit it. "I think you should consider my speculation. The key to breaking the deadlock is to receive the invitation to the test. Maybe only certain people can see the well?"

Dead silence.

Morino Ibiki secretly hated him. He was more and more certain that Hinata Naraku had found the well, so he had to give in and sneered, "Okay, then I'll go back and look for Morino Koda's relics. Let's make an appointment to come to the Forest of Death again at the same time tomorrow."

"Okay!" Hinata Naraku nodded in agreement. He yawned, rubbed his sore eyes and walked out of the Death Forest.

Morino Ibiki snorted coldly and ran towards the exit of the Death Forest at a faster speed, soon disappearing from the Byakugan's sight.

Another two hours later.

Hinata Naraku walked out of the Death Forest slowly, but then strangely wandered around the entrance and returned to the Death Forest. He deliberately circled the forest a few times, and after using his Byakugan to confirm that no one was following him within his field of vision, he chose a direction and ran quickly.

After half an hour.

In a dense bush northwest of the Death Forest, there are some collapsed wooden walls around, with potholes all over the walls filled with dried, weathered insect eggs, indicating that this may have originally belonged to the Oil Girl Clan, which used to breed insect eggs, but now the people have all gone and the insects have died, with no life left.

Hinata Naraku rolled his eyes and moved away some wooden wall debris. What came into view was a dry, deep, abandoned well. The bottom of the well was dark and the walls were covered with silt and moss.

To be honest,

The appearance of this well was also an unexpected surprise for Hyuga Naraku. If this well did not exist, he was planning to use another way to deepen his deception of Morino Ibiki tonight, but the appearance of this well made things simpler.

It seems that

Fate also hopes that Morino Ibiki can use this place as his burial place!

Hinata Naraku bent down and slowly put his head into the well, as if to get a closer look at the bottom of the well, and also as if to prevent people outside from seeing the mysterious expression on his face at this moment...
