Chapter 420: The All-Rounder Path

While the main was out, the two wood clones were proceeding with their jobs in the underworld.

The real Neji was connected with the two clones, his [Gamer's Mind] made the clones an extension of him rather than how the usual clones worked in Naruto. He was a bit unsure if the connection would be maintained when he left the dimension, that's why he had even bothered to leave mental orders before he left.

Fortunately, he remained connected to them. So with the help of [Super-Task] he focused on these clones, while he did his own stuff in the surface world.

Clone no.1 was headed for the Bael Household region, and Clone no.2 was headed for the Gremory Household.

Both of them had the same goal, however. To steal the Power of Destruction.

From what Neji learned in the last few days, the Bael Household is the original user of the Power of Destruction. Only when a Venelana Bael married into the Gremory Family, did the PoD reach outside the household of Baels. Thanks to the natural magical talent that the Gremory Family boasts, their PoD users are usually more talented than the Baels and therefore stronger.

"Hmm, it's going to be annoying. There are three Ultimate Class Devils, they should be as strong as Grayfia at least." When Neji reached the skies over the Mansion of the Bael Family, he stopped to look inside.

Zekram Bael, the original head of the Bael Clan, is alive to this day. He acted as the Leader of all Devils when the original Four Satans died; that was a testament to his power level. The current Lord Bael should be weaker than him, but still strong given he was the Lord of a clan of PoD users. Lastly, the heir... Sairaorg Bael was a danger in his own right with his immense hunger for power.

"Not that I'm going to fight with any of them," Neji smiled. He was here to steal the Power of Destruction, he didn't have to fight those three Satan Class devils for it.

There was this guy named Magdaran Bael, whom Neji noticed was in his room, writing something on research papers. He was the younger brother of Sairaorg Bael, and while Sairaorg didn't inherit PoD, this guy did. It was weaker than Zekram and Lord Bael, but Neji could make ends meet with it.

First, he had to get inside. There were quite a lot of guards around this place, but that was not an issue. Neji couldn't just teleport inside, there were magic barriers that were used to block that—and while he could just bulldoze though, that'd alert everyone.

So, Neji just had to walk inside. Or run. At the speed that he could move at right now, even without his transformations, should be enough to blitz past the guards without them ever knowing.

So, from the sky, he did just that. He flew over the room of Magdaran Bael and then dropped right down at a speed beyond the eye could perceive. Just when his body was about to crash into the roof and destroy it all, he called forth Kamui and phased right through.

Thud

His feet gently touched the ground, making a small sound. Magdaran frowned from his table and turned around, looking annoyed at what produced the sound, before his eyes widened finding a stranger in his room.

"Who-"

[Genjutsu]

The [Tier 14] young Devil froze when his eyes locked with Neji's. Neji didn't care to waste time and walked over, placing a hand on the young man's shoulders, and using the power he hadn't used in a while.

[Mine]

The overpowered upgrade to All for One seemed to love being called after so long, as it screamed with a color of black and red that swept inside the body of Magdaran.
