I am the most popular character in Naruto!

But that doesn't mean he can't do anything!

"put all one's eggs in one basket--"

With gritted teeth and enduring the burst of chakra from Chiaki, Zetsu suddenly pounced on Chiaki's back.

"what?!"

Chapter 401 If I Could Be Stronger

"Yin-Yang Escape!"

"Spirit possession!"

Jue, in a desperate move, lunged at Qianqiu and hugged her shoulders tightly.

"What!?"

Chiaki, who was focused on treating Obito, was startled. With the Eight Gates still open, she hadn't noticed Zetsu's movement. In the Eight Gates state, she was completely powerless to resist after being embraced by Zetsu.

Because of the feedback from the Eight Gates, Chiaki's body was disintegrating inch by inch. If it weren't for the pink life force within her constantly maintaining everything about her, she would probably have been worn down by the Eight Gates long ago.

This is why Chiaki can only use her consciousness to control the other side of the boundary to heal Obito, and cannot use her own body.

That's what gave Jue the opportunity to take advantage.

As Jue made his desperate gamble, Qianqiu was horrified to discover that his body was completely unable to move.

Yin-Yang Escape!

This escape technique, which was rarely mentioned in the original work, appeared directly in Zetsu's hands.

A large amount of Yin-Yang chakra surged from Zetsu's body towards Chiaki, and Zetsu's half-white, half-black body began to separate.

The white part gradually climbed onto Qianqiu's body, attempting to possess and control her.

no solution anymore!

There's absolutely no other way!

He was very clear about the extent of his abilities.

Possession ability can indeed be used on anyone, but that person must be extremely weak and controllable.

Even with Qianqiu at his peak, he himself had no idea what this attachment would ultimately become.

He could only transfer the White Zetsu within him into Chiaki's body, using a two-pronged approach to control Chiaki's body.

"Woo——"

Chiaki collapsed to his knees in agony, the sapphire light around him vanishing in an instant, the Eight Gates were forcibly dispelled, leaving only a surge of pink chakra flashing in the sky.

Waves of dizziness surged through Qianqiu's mind. The pain in his body, coupled with his mental exhaustion and a feeling of something invading his consciousness, made it impossible for Qianqiu to move.

"Take this opportunity...!!!"

Zetsu released Chiaki, panting heavily as he looked at Obito, who lay half-dead beside him, and Madara Uchiha, who stood quietly.

His gaze shifted between the two of them before settling on Chiaki, who was kneeling on the ground struggling.

Damn...

This woman, Senju Chiaki...

If we can resolve this situation while we have this opportunity...

Zetsu clenched his fist, realizing he really didn't have any offensive capabilities. He looked around and, to his dismay, discovered that neither Madara Uchiha nor Chiaki were the type to fight with weapons, which was a bit of a problem.

"Ugh—no...don't try to escape..."

In her agony, Chiaki noticed Zetsu's wandering gaze. With difficulty, she raised her head, suppressing her turbulent thoughts and constantly shifting body, and reached out her hand to Zetsu.

A pink chakra thread rushed towards Zetsu, who was startled and quickly dodged Chiaki's chakra thread.

"Gu..."

Chiaki clutched her head in pain and rolled onto the ground, her pale purple kimono almost completely covered in dust, looking as if she had rolled out of the mud.

When has she ever been so disheveled?

Watching Chiaki struggle in pain but still manage to attack him, Zetsu swallowed hard and silently raised Chiaki's threat level to the highest level, even on par with Uchiha Madara.

"I can't kill you today... but I definitely will next time!"

"The moment the plan is executed on the night of the full moon will be the day of your death, Senju Chiaki!"

Zetsu gritted his teeth, uttered a harsh threat, rushed to Obito's side, and grabbed him.

The next instant, Zetsu appeared beside Madara Uchiha's corpse with Obito and once again hoisted Madara Uchiha onto his back.

For Zetsu, Madara Uchiha's corpse was quite useful, and it couldn't be taken back by Konoha.

"etc--"

Qianqiu struggled to lift her head from the ground. The veins on her forehead and neck were bulging, and the flushed red on her face made her beautiful appearance seem as if it were bleeding.

"Give Obito back!"

She was unwilling to give up; there was only a little left...

As long as I can get Obito...

That should be it!

However, a large amount of Yin-Yang chakra wrapped around Chiaki's body, forming a dark shadow that forcefully bound half of Chiaki's body.

On the other half of Chiaki's body, there was a white Zetsu, which was working hard to control Chiaki with the Yin-Yang Chakra.

"Next time we meet, things won't be so simple, Senju Chiaki!"

Zetsu, holding both Obito and Madara Uchiha in his arms, gave Chiaki a deep look.

He didn't place any hope on controlling Qianqiu; he only hoped that his dual control would render Qianqiu immobile for a period of time, enough for him to escape to a sufficient distance.

"Give it back..."

The pink chakra on Chiaki's body seemed to be malfunctioning, intermittently surging out of her body, flashing and devouring the Yin-Yang chakra and White Zetsu on her body, and her condition gradually recovered.

She slowly got up from the ground, her body trembling, but her eyes were fixed on Jue with unwavering determination.

"Your mother will not let you get away with this!"

Seeing that Qianqiu was already able to move, Jue was so frightened that he immediately burrowed into the soil and disappeared.

"hateful--!!!"

Chiaki stretched out his hand, watching Zetsu's figure sink into the earth, disappearing with Obito and Madara, and felt blood rush to his brain.

bang

She slammed her fist into the ground, creating a deep crater.

The power drained away, and Qianqiu collapsed to his knees.

Her pink chakra flickered wildly, and Beyond the Boundary devoured the Yin-Yang chakra energy in large gulps, just as it had devoured the energy of the Grell Stone before.

Swoosh

After a long while, a golden light suddenly appeared. Minato looked around anxiously and finally saw Chiaki kneeling in the pit. He cried out repeatedly, "Chiaki! Chiaki! How are you?!"

"..."

At this moment, Chiaki, who was kneeling in the pit, had returned to normal. His Yin-Yang Chakra had been completely absorbed by Beyond the Boundary, and White Zetsu had been directly kneaded into a mosaic and landed next to Chiaki.

She stared silently at the earth, her eyes vacant.

"Qianqiu...?"

Minato said, trembling, "I'm sorry... I'm late..."

He was covered in blood, which was still wet, indicating that he had just returned from killing enemies and had not rested for a moment.

"...Yes, you're late."

Qianqiu slowly came back to her senses and looked at him with sad eyes: "If you had come sooner... would things have been different?"

"No...that's not right."

But soon, Chiaki shook her head again and stood up from the ground. Minato opened his eyes wide and looked at Chiaki, whose pink hair was almost dragging on the ground and whose appearance and temperament had changed drastically, as if he did not recognize her.

"If I were stronger, this wouldn't have happened."

Qianqiu turned her phoenix eyes back, glanced at the bloodstains on Minato's body, took a deep breath and said, "Let's go, Senior Brother Minato."

"We should end this farce."

Chapter 402 The Male Lead of a Revenge Novel

"hateful!"

"Damn, damn, damn, damn!"

In an extremely secluded underground cave, Zetsu appeared with a dazed Obito and Madara's corpse.

Inside this underground cave, besides the necessities of life, there was only a huge monster sculpture.

The sculpture seemed to be alive; its skin was trembling, and its body was connected to a large number of thick tubes.

The conduit was connected to the ground, and inside the conduit flowed some strange energy, radiating a suffocating pressure.

"Damn it!!!"

He roared at the top of his lungs and slammed his fist heavily onto the ground.

He had never felt such a heavy sense of failure and frustration, even though everything was going according to his plan and things were on track.

But who knew that Madara Uchiha would be so "unreliable"?

Madara Uchiha's so-called pride of the Uchiha clan was utterly insignificant in Zetsu's eyes.

Madara Uchiha was indeed exceptionally talented, far surpassing ordinary people in both intellect and strength. If he were in another movie, he might be the male protagonist who got knocked over in an amusement park and had a different voice actor.

But what's the use?

Pride and arrogance will ruin everything.
