Konoha: Unable to learn ninjutsu, they had to develop their own.

After thinking for a long time, she said, "We did capture two White Zetsu clones, but they shouldn't be the leader you mentioned."

His strategy basically follows the policies and strategies of the Ebizo period, maintaining development and making money, and no longer resorting to short-sighted methods like draining the pond to catch all the fish.

Because Chiba had previously helped her transfer some of her life force, Chiyo's life condition was much stronger than that of a normal elderly person; at least Ebizo's mental state was not as good as hers.

As the Fifth Kazekage, Ebizo made significant contributions.

and so.

The current Kazekage is no longer Ebizo.

While it wasn't entirely due to Ebizo's efforts, his guidance, wisdom, and strategy were absolutely indispensable.

This has significantly improved the environment around Sunagakure.

"It is not an ordinary White Zetsu, but a creation of Yin-Yang Release. It is a black state that can blend into shadows and human bodies. Ordinary people cannot detect it at all, not even me."

Chiba said seriously, "I can only vaguely sense his presence. He shouldn't have arrived in Sunagakure yet, but you must be careful."

"Is it because of reincarnation?"

Ebi hid on the side.

Chiba nodded gently.

Ebizo pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "We will be careful, should anything happen..."

"Ebizo, you're out of your mind again. If you can't detect it using normal methods, how can we possibly be sure of the situation?"

Chiyo said irritably.

Ebizo remained silent for a while, not speaking for a long time, seemingly confused by Chiyo's words.

After a while.

He then looked at Chiba and frowned, asking, "What should we do then?"

"If it's convenient, I'd like to leave a shadow clone next to you."

"This……"

Chiyo hesitated for a moment.

but.

Ebizo nodded without hesitation: "Okay."

……

"Fortunately, there are still some White Zetsu clones left, so I at least have some people I can use. Now is definitely not the right time."

Black Zetsu thought to himself.

Chiba may have sensed his own presence from that earlier fluctuation—

Even if you don't have it, you should treat it as if you did.

That rascal……

However, he was a terrifying figure who had researched Yin-Yang Escape.

Without the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan, Chiba is absolutely the first person in the world to research Sage Mode and Yin-Yang Release solely through his own talent.

Such power and understanding are far beyond the ordinary.

He was prepared for a protracted battle.

Black Zetsu sent the White Zetsu out to make contact in all directions, while the White Zetsu clones were brought back.

Exploring without a target is suicidal and utterly pointless.

and.

The reason Konoha kept White Zetsu was probably to use them to intimidate other ninja villages, since Konoha was the only village that could truly deal with White Zetsu.

No White Zetsu clone dares to go to Konoha.

A sophisticated sensory system, sealing ninjutsu, and those terrifying targeted parasitic insects.

Any White Zetsu who goes there is just asking for death.

He pondered how to deal with the situation while digging Ban's body out of the ground.

Madara's body is still well-preserved, though somewhat aged, but if life force could be injected into him to restore him—

Of course, recovery and resurrection are two different things.

To revive Madara, some other methods will be needed.

White Zetsu clones gradually returned and gathered inside the base. Black Zetsu immediately ordered them to disperse and not all stay in the base, to avoid being discovered by the people of Konoha.

Only a small number of people remain.

Black Zetsu said, "Let's exchange some information."

"My lord, Konoha is expanding very rapidly. We dare not even venture near the Land of Fire now."

"Kumakushi Village is also terrifying..."

"Sunagakure..."

The White Zetsu clones all spoke up.

Black Zetsu gradually fell silent.

He initially thought that there shouldn't be much change in the past few years.

but.

Reality slapped him hard in the face.

The ninja world has changed a lot.

Although it hasn't reached the point of complete replacement or generation, the differences are already quite significant.

Various barrier techniques and ninjutsu.

"I guess we won't be able to get the Rinnegan back."

"Madara, after Madara's resurrection, can he be a match for that guy?"

Black Zetsu felt despair just thinking about it.

He had a feeling—

Even if Madara is resurrected, he might not be a match for Chiba, and his final fate would likely be tragic.

There's nothing we can do about it.

Even if it really comes to that, he won't panic too much.

We can just tough it out.

If Konoha survives its period of dominance, the other four great villages will definitely still be dissatisfied and secretly try to catch up, and a situation similar to the First Shinobi World War will still occur.

"My life is infinite."

"As long as I can endure it, there is no difficulty I cannot overcome. Who knows, in the future I might be able to go to Konoha and dig out that damned Yagyu Chiba, and throw his body into the sea."

Black Zetsu thought viciously.

Nothing can't wait.

He had waited for hundreds of years, from the era of the Sage of Six Paths to the present, and had seen off the Sage of Six Paths, Ashura, and Hashirama Senju.

He has endless years.

Side Story - Black Zetsu's Resurrection Plan 3

"Black Zetsu didn't make a move?"

"It seems so. He's very alert and probably won't make a move anytime soon."

Chiba said.

Jiraiya scratched his head.

He rushed back from outside after hearing about Black Zetsu, but he's perfectly fine now...

It doesn't seem necessary.

Black Zetsu seems to have chosen to lie low, which means he is unlikely to make a move in the short term.

but.

"You seem to be doing alright outside, right?"

"Ok?"

"I didn't say you were free. Kakashi-sensei has been quite busy lately. I was wondering if you'd be interested in going up and playing the Seventh Hokage for fun."

Jiraiya's expression was serious.

If these lunatics succeed in completing the Infinite Tsukuyomi, the entire ninja world will be doomed.

otherwise.

Chiba said, "So the Moon is essentially a sealing technique, right?"

Chiba said.

"Is Black Zetsu really Madara's creation?"

Upon hearing Chiba's words, Jiraiya instantly became alert. After taking a step back, he said cautiously, "What do you mean? Let me make it clear first, although I am no longer searching for the Child of Prophecy, I am still gathering intelligence for Konoha!"

"what?"

He thought for a moment and said, "What if Madara really comes back to life?"

"The tailed beasts' descriptions of the Sage of Six Paths, and that stone tablet."

He just chuckled, then became serious: "Are you implying that Black Zetsu might be a product of the Ten-Tails? Why would you think that?"
