Chapter 511 511: Deja Vu
"How could… How could this be…"
When Takemi's voice from above the sky fell, the entire world seemed to fall into dead silence at that moment.
The faces of the people next to Takemi's God Tree Clone showed expressions of terror, as if they couldn't believe what they had just heard.
"What exactly is going on?"
Those who had just arrived looked astonished, an extreme sense of unease and fear beginning to echo in their hearts.
"No way… Takemi, stop joking."
Deidara couldn't help but gulp, he wanted to laugh to lighten the mood, but for some reason, he couldn't laugh at all.
"Takemi, you are…"
Sasuke gulped, his eyes a little vacant, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
"Takemi, what exactly is happening?"
Kakashi and Guy looked back in disbelief, but then couldn't help but look up at the sky. That confusion, fear, and sorrow constantly intertwined in their hearts, they couldn't even imagine what they were seeing.
Even Nagato, Obito, and Kimimaro, whose souls had just been snatched back from the three Ōtsutsuki souls, were full of confusion.
Obito's gaze flickered. He couldn't help but glance at Kakashi, seemingly not surprised that Kakashi was encountering such a situation.
And the Hokage, at this moment, collectively fell into silence and bewilderment, as if they hadn't fully recovered.
"What exactly happened over there…"
In the distance, among the Allied Forces, countless ninjas felt confused.
They didn't quite understand what was happening ahead, but they all felt as if something terrifying was about to occur.
"Ino, are you alright?"
Shikamaru looked at Ino with a strange expression. He had felt that Ino seemed a bit off since just now, and Choji was also very concerned.
"Are you worried about Takeshiki? Don't worry, it'll be fine, with everyone here, there won't be any problems."
"With Takemi here, there will definitely be no problem." Lee and Neji spoke at the same time, and Hinata nodded along.
"I think everyone should still be careful."
Ino actually didn't want to dampen everyone's enthusiasm at all, but she felt that the situation seemed a little off, and her inner unease grew stronger and stronger.
'How did he know Naruto, and his words… why do they sound more and more like Takemi's?'
Ino didn't dare to speak, nor did she dare to admit these things, because all of this was too terrifying and too much for her to accept.
But unfortunately, many times, things often don't go as one wishes.
"Takemi, you…"
Tobirama gulped, speaking with a face full of disbelief.
"What exactly is wrong with you…"
"Nothing, just saying a few normal words."
However, it wasn't the Takemi in front of him who answered, but Takeshiki in the sky.
The Takemi in front of them withdrew his hand, looking at Naruto with a smile, then shrugged indifferently.
"But I'm curious about one thing. When exactly did you discover the problem? After all…"
As he spoke, the Takemi in front slowly looked up at the sky, and the Takeshiki in the sky smiled and continued to speak.
His voice changed at this moment, becoming Takemi's voice.
"I noticed a long time ago that your emotions weren't quite right, but I didn't expect you to discover all of this, it's incredible."
"You… what are you talking about?!"
Sasuke couldn't hold back anymore.
Everyone else also had empty eyes, that shock and bewilderment, accompanied by fear, made them unable to speak.
"Talking about what?"
It wasn't the Takemi in front of him who answered, but Takeshiki in the sky, while the Takemi in front of him gently shook his head.
The next moment, those specks of light began to spread, and he seemed to be completely enveloped by a golden glow.
Takeshiki in the sky placed his hand on his mask, then slowly took it off.
"Actually, you already knew, didn't you, Sasuke? It's just that deep down, you're unwilling to admit it, unwilling to accept all of this."
"Shut up! Just shut up!"
Sasuke roared hysterically, feeling as if a piece of his heart had been gouged out, bloody but with no visible wound. His eyes involuntarily looked at the figure in the sky, while the Takemi beside him, covered in a golden glow, gently shook his head and continued.
"I can't blame you, I understand you, but unfortunately, this world never had truth and lies from the beginning, only…"
Before he finished speaking, the Takemi covered in golden light had already vanished, and the Takeshiki in the sky had completely removed his mask.
Takeshiki's true face was revealed at this moment, he was Takemi.
"Just an unshakeable fact."
Buzz—
Sasuke felt as if his head had been heavily pounded. He stood there dazed, his ears buzzing.
Not just him, but everyone else, and the Allied Forces in the distance, were also like this.
"What… what kind of joke…"
Deidara finally couldn't hold it together at this moment, his eyes appeared exceptionally scattered.
Ino in the distance fell silent. The scene she least wanted to see had still appeared.
"No… no way, how could this be…"
Neji and Lee were also at a loss, Shikamaru and Choji were already speechless, and everyone else was dazed beyond words.
They suddenly felt that this world, which was clearly covered by the golden light emitted by the God Tree, had suddenly become unreal.
In that instant, it was as if all sounds, colors, and even temperature had been extracted. What remained was only the dull pain in their chests, and the suffocatingly heavy anguish.
"Even so, all living beings in this world still live by mistaking facts that are convenient for them as truth, because only then can they survive."
Takemi looked at the mask in his hand with a hint of mockery. With a gentle squeeze, the mask instantly turned into fragments on the ground.
He looked up at everyone, a faint smile still on his face.
"However, for the powerless weak who occupy most of the world, facts that are inconvenient for them are often the truth, just like now."
These words left everyone disheartened. They had never expected that the end of this world would actually be like this.
And, it was the person who had given them endless hope, who could lead them out of the end of history.
No one had ever expected that their savior Takemi, was also simultaneously Ōtsutsuki Takeshiki who would destroy this world.
Such despair was indescribable.
And for the people of Konoha, it was even more so. They had never imagined that the Fifth Hokage, whom they trusted and would give everything for, had such an identity.
Especially Takemi's friends, all the past memories of their time together, now felt like shattered glass piercing their hearts, each breath bringing a stinging pain.
"Why would you do this…"
However, just as everyone was in dead silence, Naruto's roar suddenly rang out.
Boom!
Naruto's body erupted with an even more powerful Chakra. As if sensing the anger and despair in his heart, this Chakra grew stronger and more vigorous.
"Naruto…"
Sasuke looked at Naruto, disheartened, but Naruto ignored him at this moment, instead staring at Takemi in the sky and asking loudly.
"Why… why do this? Why?!"
"Why?"
Takemi inexplicably felt that this scene seemed familiar. He seemed to have seen it somewhere before.
Suddenly, he remembered.
It seemed that when he was acquiring the Totsuka Blade, he was affected by the Totsuka Blade's genjutsu and saw all of this.
It's just that the Totsuka Blade seemed to have underestimated his achievements. In that genjutsu, he was only besieged by Konoha ninjas. And now, he seemed to be an enemy of the whole world.
However, he didn't care, instead looking at Naruto with an amused expression.
