Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

Chapter 159 Grandpa Madara

"What!" Nagato suddenly opened his eyes and reflexively activated the power of his Rinnegan: "Shinra Tensei!"

"Useless, useless, useless!" Black Zetsu laughed loudly.

It transformed into a black curtain, or like skin, covering and adorning Nagato's body.

"I can't move!" Nagato said with difficulty, "You are... Zetsu!"

"Poor humans, they've always been kept in the dark about their fate and mission, and have been used by others," Black Zetsu sighed.

"On the last stretch of your life, I will tell you the truth, so you can die knowing why."

Using Kaguya's chakra, they ignored Nagato's resistance.

To take over, to seize control of his body.

With a vessel, Black Zetsu was able to continuously refine chakra.

The initial extraction was Nagato's chakra, which was then transformed into Kaguya's chakra, which it needed.

Black Zetsu could not refine Kaguya's chakra on his own. The chakra that Kaguya gave to Black Zetsu was the source, which became the mold.

You have to throw in a lot of Nagato's chakra to get a single piece of Kaguya's chakra.

More and more Kaguya's chakra was extracted, and the Black Emperor's suppression of Nagato grew stronger and stronger.

At first, Nagato only lost control of his body. Gradually, he lost all sensation, leaving only his consciousness, and he could not feel his body at all.

Silver-white, neck-length short hair.

Oval face.

Pure white eyes.

She has a beauty mark at the corner of her eye.

Fair-skinned and beautiful.

"I am no longer an incomplete, defective product."

She has a tall and slender figure, nearly 1.8 meters tall, with long and straight legs.

Wearing a pure white cheongsam adorned with black jade accents, she accentuated her figure even more.

Black Zetsu has no gender, no life, and no body.

It was incomplete from the beginning, but through this opportunity, it was able to shape its own body and truly become worthy of being called a mother's child.

Black Zetsu still has no gender distinction; it doesn't care whether it's male or female, but rather makes its appearance resemble its mother's, yet not exactly the same.

She only looks like a woman.

"Let's use this as a temporary measure. Once we revive Madara, we can change the carrier," Black Zetsu muttered to himself.

Suddenly thinking of Naruto, it hesitated.

Even a mother as strong as she is can still make mistakes when it comes to possessing Naruto.

With only a fraction of Kaguya's chakra origin, could it suppress Madara, who was many times more powerful than Nagato?

It is questionable.

"Better safe than sorry," Black Zetsu sighed.

The reason why the mother stumbled against Naruto was simply because she underestimated him and wasn't careful enough.

The same mistake must not be repeated; anything that is not foolproof must not be done.

"Ban must be resurrected."

"Because he is the reincarnation of the strongest Indra chakra, he can perfectly unleash the power of these two Rinnegan, making him a powerful force that can be utilized."

"After the resurrection of the 'Soldier', this vessel is no longer usable and needs to be replaced as soon as possible. Who should we replace it with?"

There are three candidates.

Itachi, Hidan, Obito.

Black Zetsu is more inclined to favor Hidan.

Although Itachi and Obito were stronger, they were still human, and humans can die.

Even Obito, who has been implanted with Hashirama cells, has an end to his lifespan; there is an upper limit to the number of times the cells can divide.

Hidan is different; he is immortal. Of course, his immortality is nothing compared to his mother's; it's too ordinary.

Lacking self-healing abilities and considerable defensive capabilities, he could be completely destroyed by the Third Tsuchikage's Dust Release or ordinary Truth-Seeking Balls.

"His strength is a bit lacking, not as good as Itachi or Obito, but considering his immortality, he's the most suitable for me."

It can endlessly extract energy from cells, refine it into chakra, and then, after a certain ratio, transform it into Kaguya's chakra.

The most important thing is to live a long time and be able to fight a protracted war.

If this generation doesn't work, then we'll have to wait for the next generation, the next generation after that, and the next generation after that.

Black Zetsu's plan is to rescue his mother within four or five hundred years; if not, then it will be extended to a thousand years.

It's impossible to go up there, never.

As the saying goes, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.

With it outside, the mother has a chance to be rescued; if something happens to it, the mother will never be able to escape.

"I was too hasty. My first thought was to possess Madara and go head-to-head with Naruto..." Black Zetsu shook his head and smiled.

More haste less speed.

It was only then, influenced by its mother's command, that it realized what was happening.

Its fitting role is that of a behind-the-scenes mastermind, secretly pushing others to fight to the death, while it reaps the benefits.

"Okay, let's do it."

First, find Madara, who was created into six clones by Naruto and whose current whereabouts are unknown.

Then, using the Samsara Rebirth Technique, he sacrificed Nagato's life to revive Madara.

Then, he possessed Hidan, using Hidan as his permanent vessel, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

"Searching on my own is too inefficient. It would be much faster to mobilize the Akatsuki and Amegakure."

Thinking it over, Black Zetsu took control of Pain's Deva Path and went to find Konan to explain the matter of finding someone.

He then activated the Illusionary Body Technique to summon the Akatsuki members for a meeting, instructing them to find Madara.

"With so many people looking for me, one more or one less won't make a difference," Black Zetsu thought to himself. "I can take this opportunity to familiarize myself with my mother's chakra."

the other side.

The illusionary body technique has been dispelled.

End of the meeting.

Kakuzu opened his eyes and couldn't help but complain, "What were you thinking, making someone like me, who averages hundreds of thousands a day, give up making money to go find an old man...?"

"If you don't want to, you don't have to look for it. Nobody's forcing you," Hidan said listlessly.

Kakuzu silently got up and went to a nearby town to find a professional painter to help him draw a portrait.

In meeting.

Zero Burial, Pain's Deva Path, has described the old man's appearance in detail and even transformed into him.

Although the colors are somewhat strange due to the illusionary magic, it's not a problem to draw a black and white portrait.

"You complain with your mouth, but your body tells a different story. I can't tell if you're afraid or loyal." Hidan chuckled.

Kakuzu, preoccupied with calculating how much money he would lose, couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to Hidan.

A week later.

The immortal duo arrived at a coastal town and asked everyone they met.

"Hey! Look at that person over there, he looks just like him!" Hidan called out to Kakuzu.

Kakuzu looked over.

Judging from the back view, it does look like him, but it's obviously not him. Zero Burial is looking for an old man, while this is a young man.

"Excuse me, have you seen this person before?"

The young man looked at Kakuzu, then at Hidan, then at the portrait, and shook his head.

Without saying anything, he went to ask other passersby.

"Grandpa Ban, that looks like you." Feng Hua Xiaoxue, who was in the mainland filming and took a break to relax, whispered.

"Yes." Naruto's Six Paths clone, Madara Uchiha, who had regained his youth thanks to Naruto's mastery of the Yin Seal and the Hundred Healings Technique, nodded.

"Why don't you admit they're enemies?" Xiaoxue asked curiously.

Ban smiled without saying a word.

Chapter 160 Naruto: Summoning Jutsu, Gedo Statue

In the frigid deep sea, it was pitch black.

As Naruto trained underwater, he unconsciously wondered what the Akatsuki wanted with Madara.

"Among the Akatsuki members, only Obito knew Madara. Is he the one looking for him?"

"No! Wait!"

"In Obito's mind, Madara was a dead man, a corpse. If you were to search for him, you would search for the corpse, not the man himself."

"It's not Obito!"

Sensing something was wrong, Naruto instantly jumped onto the surface of the sea, onto a large wooden ship marked with a symbol.

"I created six clones of Madara, and they are just like living people. In the entire ninja world, the number of people who know about this can be counted on two hands."

Mom, Hinata, Sakura and Ino, Tsunade, Jiraiya.

These individuals have absolutely no connection to the Akatsuki organization and cannot command them, so there's no need for them to do anything extra.
