Naruto: The Age of Ninja Swords Begins in Kumogakure

Chapter 51 Kaguya's Consciousness

"Know!"

Black Zetsu nodded, not understanding why the boy was saying this.

"My sister can become stronger, or rather, recover, by absorbing chakra. My chakra has already been absorbed by her and become very pure. Now I need other people's chakra, especially the Sharingan's eye power and the chakra of the Senju clan. Kaguya's chakra and the Uzumaki clan's chakra will also work, and the chakra of the tailed beasts is the best."

She's inside my head and I can't devour her directly. I need to create a sealed space inside my body to transfer my sister inside, the more perfect the better.

Most importantly, it must be concealed; it cannot be detected by others, nor can it be seen through by eye techniques such as the Sharingan or Byakugan.

That's right, what Tamura Hao wants is the Six Paths Ten-Tails Coffin Seal used by Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito. Others may not know, but this big shot should.

Not only has it survived for over a thousand years, but it is also a remnant of Kaguya Otsutsuki, and the legacy it possesses is far more complex than what is shown in the anime.

Hei Zetsu understood, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I know a sealing technique that can perfectly connect your mother's power with yours. Expose your abdomen, and I will help you construct it."

Without hesitation, Tamura Hiroshi lifted his shirt to reveal his eight-pack abs.

With his cheat-like abilities backing him up, he's not afraid of Black Zetsu's tricks.

Black Zetsu manifested his pitch-black hands and used the power of Yin-Yang Release to inscribe a spell on the boy's abdomen. Finally, he slammed his hand down on the boy's abdomen, causing all the spellcasters to merge into his body.

Tamura Hao infused his chakra into it and quickly sensed the enormous space inside—it was an incredibly vast space.

Without delay, he used chakra as a medium to transfer Kaguya's phantom into it.

The moment Kaguya's phantom entered, the Yin-Yang Release chakra that constructed the sealed space resonated with it, and even actively merged into it, gaining control of this sealed space.

Even Kaguya's phantom image became much more solid and agile.

Realizing he had lost contact with the sealed space, Black Zetsu immediately plunged in, and was overjoyed to see Kaguya's phantom image.

"Mom, it really is you!"

This is confirmed, this is definitely my mom.

Kaguya's phantom seemed to sense something and looked at Black Zetsu, just watching quietly.

Tamura Hao used chakra to form a physical form within the sealed space, and looking at the more agile Kaguya phantom, he confirmed his earlier guess.

He had previously guessed that Kaguya's phantom would definitely continue to improve, and might even develop sentience, which is also a characteristic of chakra.

After all, even the Sage of Six Paths' chakra could manifest a figure through Madara Uchiha's thigh, and it could also directly manifest in the mental worlds of Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha, let alone Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"I don't think it's very reliable for you to awaken the Sage of Six Paths' eyes through Madara Uchiha and thus break his seal on your sister."

Tamura Hiroshi suddenly said, "It's time to show off your deception skills."

"What are you trying to say?"

Having finally calmed himself down, Black Zetsu turned to look at his younger brother, waiting for him to continue.

"Your plan has a fatal flaw: is the Sage of Six Paths really dead?"

You're plotting in the shadows, and so is he. When you guided Madara Uchiha down that path, he probably already knew. Your entire plan is under his watchful eye. I don't think you can outmaneuver him.

Tamura Hao did not believe that the Sage of Six Paths was dead. After all, the Sage of Six Paths was a pure Otsutsuki, who had awakened the Rinnegan and was the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki. He was not much weaker than Kaguya Otsutsuki.

If Kaguya Otsutsuki, Black Zetsu, and the nine tailed beasts could survive for so long, the Sage of Six Paths must be no less capable.

In addition to the Sage of Six Paths' resurrection and numerous actions during the Fourth War, he felt there was a big problem.

"I know this plan is risky, but I have no other choice."

Black Zetsu said helplessly. He naturally knew that this was risky, otherwise he wouldn't have continued to hide in the shadows after the death of the Sage of Six Paths.

Hagoromo's chakra has always existed in the ninja world, and even Indra and Ashura's chakra can be reincarnated continuously, let alone Hagoromo's.

Furthermore, Hagoromo's Rinnegan from back then has also disappeared, which is indeed very abnormal.

But he had no other choice. The Rinnegan was the foundation for breaking his mother's seal, and he had to get it.

"If I could possess power surpassing that of the Sage of Six Paths back then, could I forcibly break his seal on my sister?"

Tamura Hao continued to inquire, preferring to forcefully break through the Infinite Tsukuyomi rather than using it to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, which would be a significant change.

"Power beyond the Feather Robe? You?"

Black Zetsu thought it was unreliable, or even impossible.

He had sensed it before; this younger brother did not possess the bloodline of Hagoromo and Hamura, but simply had chakra. It was impossible for him to reach Hagoromo's level.

If that level were so easy to reach, I wouldn't have needed to struggle for thousands of years.

"How will you know if you don't try?"

Tamura Hao was very confident in himself. As a transmigrator with a cheat-like ability, his future was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"Don't count on this illusory image of your mother; it's far from enough."

Black Zetsu still rejected it. After seeing the phantom, he knew that this was not his mother's contract, or at least not a complete one. It was impossible for him to obtain much of his mother's power, especially the Bloodline Limit.

Tamura Hao didn't say much about that, and instead started talking about the Ten-Tails.

"Could we create a mini Ten-Tails so that my sister can absorb some external power? At least we need to filter it."

"I've sealed away some remnants of the sacred tree; they're still somewhat alive. I'll send them to you later."

Black Zetsu did not refuse. Although the potential of this phantom was limited, it was enough to make the boy surpass everyone in the current ninja world. It should not be difficult for him to reach the level of Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju.

"There is also the chakra of the various tailed beasts, especially the Nine-Tails' chakra. Absorbing its chakra can enhance my range of perception of good and evil."

Tamura Hao further proposed the chakra of the tailed beasts, implying that Black Zetsu definitely possessed it.

Even the one from the Fire Temple was able to collect so much Nine-Tails chakra during the Nine-Tails' rampage, so there's no reason why this powerful figure wouldn't be able to collect it as well.

"That sensory ability originates from the Nine-Tails' original power. Only that original power can surpass the chakra of ninjas in the ninja world and thus be perceived by you."

Absorbing the Nine-Tails' ordinary chakra is useless, but the ordinary chakra of tailed beasts can be used to nurture the Ten-Tails. Although its potential isn't high, it should be able to reach the level of a tailed beast.

Black Zetsu rejected Tamura Hao's idea. If chakra alone could achieve that level, he would have already secretly collected a large amount of tailed beast chakra to create the Ten-Tails.

"The origin of chakra!"

Tamura Hiroshi suddenly realized that he hadn't expected such a saying, but this made sense.

Although tailed beasts are aggregates of chakra, they are not simply chakra; otherwise, they wouldn't have flesh and blood. It would be more reasonable for them to possess a source of power, which is the foundation of the tailed beasts.

In this way, the only way for him to improve his perception of good and evil is to scheme against the Nine-Tails. He doesn't know how many more years the First Hokage's wife can live.

"Keep an eye on the First Hokage's wife. She's not young anymore. The transfer of the Nine-Tails will be an opportunity. I'll have the Third Raikage and the others help me snatch it, at least some of the Nine-Tails' flesh and blood."

Tamura Hiroshi values ​​his ability to perceive good and evil, and it will be his most reliable means of survival in the future.

At least it will prevent the enemy from getting close.

"You can influence the Third Raikage and the Hidden Cloud Village?"

Black Zetsu was surprised; it seemed that this younger brother held a high position in Kumogakure.
