Becoming a Ninja from Naruto

Chapter 218 Following the strong is a human instinct
"What... happened?"

Madara Uchiha lowered his head in disbelief, looking at the black hand reaching out from his chest, seemingly not expecting to be ambushed by Black Zetsu at this moment.

Black Zetsu is the will of Emiya Shihara.

With Emiya Shigen's power and reputation, there was absolutely no need for his will to launch a sneak attack on him at this moment!
"Black Zetsu..."

"Don't go too far."

Since Emiya Shigenobu couldn't see what was actually happening, he only spoke as if Black Zetsu had controlled Uchiha Madara: "Given Madara's personality, he might refuse to revive Lady Kaguya, but he's also suitable to be Lady Kaguya's subordinate in ruling the ninja world..."

"Don't worry, Wei Yuan."

"I'm only temporarily binding his body..."

Black Zetsu's voice was somewhat hoarse as he smiled and spoke a half-truth: "Madara currently possesses the Ten-Tails within him, and this is essential for reviving Kaguya. Let him merge with Kaguya first, and we can deal with him after Kaguya is revived..."

"Kaguya... Lady?"

Madara Uchiha murmured the name.

"good."

Black Zetsu's lips curled into a sinister smile as it revealed its true plan: "Our plan has never been the Infinite Tsukuyomi that puts people to sleep, but rather to use it to resurrect the ancient goddess of the rabbit..."

"You should have thought of that..."

"Spots..."

"How could someone as kind as Wei Yuan allow everyone in the world to spend their lives trapped in a fantasy? That would be another form of destruction..."

"Compared to plunging humanity into slumber, our ultimate plan is to return this world to the ancient past under the rule of the gods!"

"In this new era..."

"The Goddess of the Rabbit will look down upon all living beings as she did in ancient times, and with divine power and wisdom, she will once again rule the entire world. Her life is endless and immortal, and the entire ninja world will thrive and multiply according to her will for generations to come..."

"This is what we really want."

"Infinite Tsukuyomi..."

"But we need the prelude to reviving Kaguya..."

"!!!"

Madara Uchiha's pupils constricted instantly, and he tried to argue with difficulty, "But... Infinite Tsukuyomi... you told me... it was left behind by the Sage of Six Paths..."

“If we tell you the plan, you definitely won’t be willing to cooperate.”

Black Zetsu couldn't help but chuckle, quite pleased with his masterpiece and utterly disdainful of Madara Uchiha's power: "While your power is far inferior to Wei Yuan's, your arrogance far surpasses Wei Yuan's—you wouldn't want a god sitting on your head..."

"but…"

"The reason we want you to join us in executing the plan is simple."

"The key step in reviving Kaguya is the Infinite Tsukuyomi..."

"And the essential item for casting Infinite Tsukuyomi is the Rinnegan..."

"Because Wei Yuan destroyed the Sage of Six Paths' Rinnegan in ancient times, we had to cultivate a new pair of Rinnegan in this era..."

As Black Zetsu spoke, a hint of regret appeared on his face: "Although I always hoped that Wei Yuan could transplant your Rinnegan and discard you as a pawn, he also wanted you to witness the true new era, which is why he allowed you to live..."

"You guys really are..."

Madara Uchiha clenched his teeth, wanting to curse, but his body was already controlled by Black Zetsu, and he also had a peculiar weakness: if someone stood behind him, he couldn't muster any strength at all...

This drawback…

This becomes especially deadly at this moment!
“Emiya…”

Naruto Uzumaki looked at Shigenori Emiya with some surprise. He had overheard the conversation between Black Zetsu and Madara Uchiha and didn't quite understand his thoughts: "You want to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki? That old woman who turned people into White Zetsu!"

"Who are you calling an old woman?"

Black Zetsu's face immediately showed annoyance. It wished it could revive Kaguya right now and let Naruto Uzumaki know how powerful his mother was!
"Naruto."

"Human life is finite."

"Even if our thoughts and power can bring temporary peace to the ninja world, this peace will vanish with death..."

"All of this..."

"I saw it when Hashirama died."

Emiya Shigenori did not deny his own thoughts, and even gave a concrete example: "Hashirama ended the chaotic Warring States period, but his short life also meant that the era of the ninja villages he created could not maintain lasting peace..."

"..."

One by one, figures resurrected from the dead approached.

However, none of them could find a way to refute Emiya Shigenori's words, because Emiya Shigenori had indeed personally experienced the First Shinobi World War that broke out after the death of Senju Hashirama.

"But…"

Naruto Uzumaki frowned and loudly argued, "The First Hokage created peace in the past, and we can create new peace too..."

"So…"

"What about those who died in the wars that broke out between the peace of two eras? What about those who suffered the pain of war throughout those times?" Emiya Shigenori's voice was somewhat ethereal, as if his soul had become oppressed at this moment: "Have you seen those souls who suffered in the chaos of those times?"

So, you see…

Naruto gritted his teeth and continued to argue, "If everyone could understand the pain of war, they wouldn't want to continue experiencing it..."

"All right."

Emiya Shigenari interrupted Naruto Uzumaki, a hint of disdain finally creeping into his calm voice: "A child cannot understand the world of adults. The real world needs someone who can restrain the darkness within everyone's heart..."

"In this world..."

"There is nothing more suitable to do this than an immortal being."

"Human life is so fragile that it is impossible to expect everyone to think like a wise person, and even expecting them to think independently is a luxury..."

"That's not how it is..."

Naruto Uzumaki tried to refute Shigenori Emiya's words: "You want to create someone who is above everyone else..."

"Naruto..."

"This is what the world wants."

"The idea of ​​so-called freedom is something that truly goes against human nature."

"Humans are born with a special instinct."

"This instinct is to choose to rely on and follow a strong person when faced with problems, just as the ninjas of the Warring States period were willing to follow Hashirama in pursuit of peace, and just as the current Konoha ninjas rely on the future Hokage to guide them on their path..."

"Compared to diligently cultivating and becoming stronger day and night, and to the knowledge gained through hard work filling the brain and leading to independent and perfect thinking, following and relying on a strong person seems so simple. Humans only need to do one thing..."

"Believe."

"Just believe in a strong person..."

"The rest will be that simple."

"Most people in this world need someone to guide their lives, to lead them onto the right path, and to help them avoid the thorns and brambles that they could never have seen on their journey..."

"Like now..."

"The ninjas of the ninja world are beginning to place their hopes on you and Sasuke, hoping you will help them defeat the enemy they cannot defeat..."

"..."

Naruto was momentarily speechless, because he did indeed obey the Hokage's orders on many occasions, and he was indeed carrying the weight of hope on his shoulders.

After all, when he returned from the Sage of Six Paths, he heard the expectations of the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, and his father, Minato Namikaze…

"That's not like Kaguya!"

While Naruto Uzumaki's thoughts were racing, Sasuke Uchiha's mind was exceptionally clear, because Sasuke Uchiha also agreed with Shigenori Emiya's ideas.

Most people in this world…

They all need someone to help them manage their lives!
That's why...

Sasuke Uchiha found a point of contention and coldly retorted, "Treating humans like livestock, arbitrarily sacrificing them to the God Tree to create monsters like White Zetsu..."

"Nonsense!"

Black Zetsu quickly retorted, defending Kaguya Otsutsuki in front of Emiya Shigenori: "Those people have committed unforgivable crimes!"

At this time...

Absolutely no accidents can happen!
Black Zetsu stared coldly at Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki. It didn't care about anything else and hurriedly manipulated Madara Uchiha to control the God Tree!

In an instant…

The divine tree quickly began to absorb the chakra from the mummy!
Black Zetsu knew that it had already started and there was no turning back, and it felt a little uneasy, so it wanted to revive Kaguya at this moment!
just in case…

Emiya Shigenori has been persuaded to turn against Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha once again!

but…

There's absolutely no need to worry about Black Zetsu.

Because Emiya Shihara would definitely not be on their side anymore.

However, Shinobu Emiya never sided with Black Zetsu. He could hear the unease in Black Zetsu's voice, the unease that the lie might be exposed and cause everything to collapse.

When feeling uneasy...

They will choose to believe in and rely on the strong.

Black Zetsu's actions were exactly as Emiya Shibara had predicted. Unable to handle the potential troubles, it could only revive Kaguya and believe that she could resolve everything...

Follow the strong.

It's not just human instinct.

This is the instinct of all living things in the world.
