Madara's idea was that without Black Zetsu, Kaguya would never be able to come out again, killing two birds with one stone and completely eliminating the threat.

Shinomiya Yuuki: "The plan sounds good, so what do you think?"

Hashirama Senju: "Well... I'm actually a little reluctant. I remember you said before that Kaguya did that in order to fight against other Otsutsuki clan members in the future."

"But those aliens aren't just after Kaguya; they want the Divine Tree. The Divine Tree will drain the energy of the entire planet, and wouldn't we, the inhabitants of the ninja world, be doomed?"

"In that case, Kaguya's goal aligns with ours; sealing her off is equivalent to losing a combatant."

"So I'd really like to hear your opinion, Yuzuki: should we keep her as an ally to fight the aliens together, or seal her away completely?"

Shinomiya Yuuki: "Heh, Hashirama, you already had a plan in mind, didn't you? You just asked me to get my approval, didn't you?"

Hashirama Senju: "Sigh... I couldn't hide it from you after all, that's really the case."

Shinomiya Yuuki: "Isn't this an obvious choice? Now that you've asked, of course I'd say keep Kaguya. It's like getting a high-level combatant for free, isn't it?"

Hashirama Senju: "Alright, I'll go back to Madara then."

Yuzuki smiled, "Who says Hashirama's a dullard? This guy's pretty shrewd!"

He had already made up his mind, but he still went through the motions of asking Youyue in the group chat.

This means that as the group leader, Youyue needs to be consulted on matters big and small; in essence, it's about treating him with respect as a key figure.

There's really no need for that. Youyue never treats her group members as subordinates, but rather as her best buddies.

Between friends, there's no need to worry about reporting or not reporting.

Six Paths Obito: "@Uchiha Obito, when are you going to return my Truth-Seeking Balls?"

"It takes a very long time to condense this."

Obito Uchiha: "What? I have to return it? Didn't I exchange it for a photo?"

Obito: "...You're using the reward you promised me to exchange for what I have?"

"Who taught you to do accounts like that?"

Obito Uchiha: "Hey, we're practically family, anyway, you can always create your own, so just give me this one."

"I didn't intend to take it; I just forgot to turn off the auto-pickup feature."

Six Paths Obito: "..."

..........................................

---------Year Two of Konoha---------

Chu mi ah!

Black Zetsu felt like he had never run so fast in his entire life.

Brave, brave, my friend

What should I do if Madara Uchiha is bombarding me with Susanoo?

Waiting online, very anxious

Bang bang bang!

The giant Susanoo spread its wings and slashed through the sky, holding a giant blade. Mountains were cleaved in two like paper in front of it, and the earth cracked beneath its feet!

One slash after another slammed into the ground, the deafening roar echoing throughout the world!

Madara Uchiha stood in the space above Susanoo's forehead, his eyes burning with rage, seemingly able to pierce through everything and reach the very heart.

He drove Susanoo, chasing Black Zetsu like a madman.

"Lord Ban! What are you doing!"

"I am the embodiment of your will!"

On the ground, Black Zetsu was terrified, screaming repeatedly.

A gleaming golden chain was wrapped around his body, the other end of which connected to Susanoo in the sky.

This prevented him from using his mayfly technique to escape underground, forcing him to crawl thinly on the surface, making it impossible for him to escape Madara's attack.

Madara remained silent, gripping the scroll, and silently maintained the sealing technique, Adamantine Sealing Technique, gradually closing the distance between himself and Black Zetsu.

This thing was obtained from the chieftain of the Land of Whirlpools; it's a disposable item.

If it weren't for the fact that only those of the Vortex Clan bloodline could learn this technique, he himself would have been tempted; it's just too useful.

Ten minutes ago…

On a small island not far from the Land of Whirlpools

Black Zetsu, the most filial son in the ninja world, slowly emerged from the soil.

"This is where Madara was last seen..." Black Zetsu muttered to himself, looking around.

He altered the Uchiha clan's stone tablet; he had been waiting for this moment.

He knew that once Madara saw the stone tablet, he would inevitably part ways with Konoha and embark on the path of the Eye of the Moon Plan.

So he patiently waited for Ban, intending to give him a lesson in morality.

He was adept at this kind of work; it was in the same way he had persuaded Indra, ultimately leading to the brothers becoming bitter enemies and never speaking to each other again.

It's a pity that Indra was a useless brat who died without ever awakening the Rinnegan.

At that time, he didn't understand that the prerequisite for the Rinnegan to appear was the fusion of the powers of both parties, and he had wasted his time.

Black Zetsu immediately sprang into action, beginning a search for Madara's whereabouts on the island.

"Only the combined power of Ashura and Indra can give birth to the Rinnegan. With the Rinnegan, one can summon the Gedo Mazo. With the Gedo Mazo, one can reunite the Tailed Beasts and revive the Ten-Tails."

"We need to get Madara to fight Hashirama Senju right away and steal his chakra."

Chapter 86 Old Man Barnacles Fishing, Black Zetsu Takes the Bait

Soon, he finally discovered Ban's whereabouts.

Ban was sitting in a cave, his eyes closed in deep thought.

Black Zetsu cautiously peeked out, observing from the shadows. "Something feels off."

His eyes flickered with doubt.

There was nothing wrong with the surrounding environment, but Madara just sat there, looking as if he were waiting for someone.

In this desolate wilderness, who can I wait for?

For some reason, Black Zetsu just had this premonition.

"Forget it, let's wait and see."

Black Zetsu pondered for a while and decided to play it safe, observing the situation for a bit longer before making a decision.

After all, he didn't need to gamble; he had plenty of time, and the right opportunity would eventually arise over the long years.

Just then, Black Zetsu slowly sank underground, intending to leave.

But just then, the spotted creature inside the cave suddenly stirred.

Suddenly, Madara, who had been sitting quietly, pulled out a kunai.

Black Zetsu was taken aback. "Nothing?"

Would a big shot like Madara Uchiha carry such a small gadget with him?

Moreover, what does he need kunai for?

To be honest, for a powerful figure like Madara, even a casual breath from him is more powerful than that kunai. He really couldn't figure out what Madara was going to do with that thing.

But then, Black Zetsu understood.

Without hesitation, Madara thrust the kunai into his own chest!

puff

Blood splattered everywhere!

! ! ! !

Black Zetsu's expression changed drastically!

Is Madara self-harming?!

No, no, no, you only had a minor disagreement with Hashirama Senju. Was it really necessary to end your own life like that?!

In that instant, Black Zetsu didn't have time to think further, regardless of the reason Madara harmed himself.

He had to stop it!

He had waited over a thousand years to encounter someone like Madara; this was the closest he had ever come to the Rinnegan! He absolutely could not let anything happen to Madara!

On the other side, Madara, expressionless, ruthlessly plunged a kunai into his own chest.

Several times in a row, his chest was already a bloody mess, and Ban was sweating profusely from the pain, but he couldn't even let out a scream.

He had risked his life to force the treacherous Black Zetsu to reveal himself.
