Naruto Online: Hyuga Branch Family? Let's go all out!

Chapter 148 The Peace Plan - Madara Also Agrees

"Infinite Tsukuyomi?" Ning Yuan asked curiously upon hearing the name. "What is Infinite Tsukuyomi?"

"The three-tomoe Sharingan isn't the limit of the Sharingan. Just like your Byakugan can evolve, the Sharingan can also evolve. The evolved Sharingan is called the Mangekyou Sharingan!" Madara said. "And each evolution of the Sharingan grants two brand-new dojutsu, different for each eye!"

This is a secret that even the current Uchiha clan may not know, yet Madara just casually revealed it.

However, Ning Yuan remained calm, showing little surprise.

Ban was very satisfied. If he could find a smart successor, who would want to find a loud and boisterous one?

"Tsukuyomi is a type of Mangekyou Sharingan eye technique. It can create an illusory world and pull people into it. In this world, time flows at a completely different rate than outside. One second outside might be three days and three nights inside!"

"It's a great ninjutsu to learn!" Ning Yuan nodded in admiration.

"Study!" Madara almost choked on his words. I'm talking to you about Infinite Tsukuyomi, and you're talking to me about studying?

But hey, you know what, this skill does seem really good for learning.

The idea is to pull someone willing to teach you ninjutsu into the Tsukuyomi space, then have them learn a ninjutsu over three days and three nights, while in reality only one second passes in the outside world.

This has great potential!

Why didn't any of the predecessors who awakened Tsukuyomi do this before?

This is what it means to be a person who pursues knowledge, someone who is constantly seeking knowledge.

"This technique is indeed very suitable for learning, but we're not talking about learning now, but about the Infinite Tsukuyomi!" Madara explained, "My envisioned Infinite Tsukuyomi involves projecting a kaleidoscope onto the moon, and then using the moon to unleash Tsukuyomi on everyone in the world, pulling them into an illusory space. This way, people can live the life they desire within the world of Infinite Tsukuyomi!"

"That way, the world can be at peace!"

After saying that, he looked at Ning Yuan with anticipation and asked, "Isn't my plan cool? Aren't you tempted?"

Ning Yuan stroked his chin and asked curiously, "Can we exit this Infinite Tsukuyomi?"

"Of course not!" Madara shook his head. "Wouldn't the technique be broken if he withdrew?"

"How long will this spell last?" Ning Yuan asked. "Will it last until everyone's life is over?"

"Of course it will continue!" Madara said matter-of-factly. "If it doesn't continue, won't they just have to fight again when they come out?"

"So, what do you think of my plan? Can it bring world peace?"

Ning Yuan nodded and said, "That's certainly possible, but have you considered this: a person's lifespan is only sixty or seventy years. Even an infant will die after seventy years. If your technique traps everyone in the Infinite Tsukuyomi, no one will fall in love, no one will get married, and no newborns will be born. People will die of old age without anyone having a chance to live. If this technique lasts for more than 70 years, won't everyone in the world die out?"

"If there's no one left in the world, of course there won't be any wars!"

"Your plan not only eliminates war, but also wipes out humanity!"

"Huh?" Madara blinked and froze on the spot.

Ning Yuan asked, "So your goal isn't actually world peace, but rather the destruction of the world?"

"How could that be!" Madara immediately shook his head. I, Uchiha Madara, am a pacifist, not a demon king who will destroy the world!

"Then how did you come up with such a plan?" Ning Yuan looked at Madara with curiosity. "Are you only looking at the present and not the future? You're even more short-sighted than Tobirama!"

"I..." Ban Wu uttered a huge sentence.

Yeah, how did I come up with this kind of plan?

This is a plan to destroy the world!

Ningyuan, this is a question I actually wanted to ask in my past life.

How exactly did this plan come about?

He even considered clearing Madara's name; maybe the people in the Infinite Tsukuyomi would come out after finishing their dreams.

In this way, everyone will realize the value of a peaceful world, and then wars will not be started.

I didn't expect it to actually not come out!

"Have you been cursed?!" Ning Yuan asked with a skeptical look. "Are you really Uchiha Madara?"

"I, I..." At this moment, Ban inexplicably felt that his lifelong reputation was ruined.

Yeah, seventy years from now, everyone will be dead, what kind of world peace will that be?

"I really find it hard to believe that a dignified Asura of the ninja world, after decades of running around the ninja world, has come up with this peace plan!" Ning Yuan shook his head, looking at him like he was an idiot. "You might as well say your dream is to destroy the world; that would at least give you the air of a ninja Asura!"

"I really didn't intend to destroy the world!" Madara quickly retorted, then suddenly realized something: "Right, right, this wasn't my plan; I saw it somewhere else!"

He didn't dare say that it was recorded on the Uchiha stone tablet, otherwise the Uchiha would lose all face!

Ning Yuan smiled and said, "Isn't it said that Madara is hard to talk to? I don't feel that way at all!"

Upon closer examination, it's not actually that hard to understand.

Naruto's talk-no-jutsu is said to be powerful, but look at who he's managed to persuade.

Gaara? He has a sixth-grade elementary school education.

Nagato? He only has a third-grade elementary school education.

Obito? He only has a fourth-grade elementary school education.

Moreover, these people all have one thing in common: they are all very easily persuaded.

Gaara is emotionally deprived of love.

Nagato was first persuaded by Yahiko and then by Obito; he was originally a person without his own opinions.

Obito is an even heavier case of being completely brainless.

If you put the experienced Fourth Raikage here, Naruto's talk-no-jutsu will immediately become ineffective.

In addition, Naruto also tried to talk Madara into submission.

But in Madara's eyes, what is Naruto?

You're an illiterate idiot who doesn't even know what a mob is. You think you're worthy to talk me into submission?

But if it were Ning Yuan, the image would be completely different.

Ning Yuan first demonstrated his extremely high combat intelligence with an indoor Water Release technique combined with the Swamp of the Underworld, and then showed his formidable basic ninja qualities outdoors with his extremely high speed, reaction speed, and Byakugan predictive ability.

Hyuga used elemental ninjutsu and also demonstrated his exceptional learning ability.

Later, during the conversation, he criticized the current affairs, pointing out the various shortcomings of Konoha and the mistakes of Tobirama's governance, speaking in a clear and logical manner.

He possesses top-notch combat intelligence and ninja skills, exceptional learning ability, clear logic, quick thinking, and the ability to see the essence of things, all at the tender age of seven or eight.

In Ban's eyes, Ning Yuan was no ordinary child!

According to Ning Yuan himself, he is a genius, a rare talent, and an all-rounder, who is unique in both political and military aspects!

Of course, Ban would take what such a person said seriously and then give it careful consideration.

It's not a big deal to think about it, but the Infinite Tsukuyomi has such a huge, glaring flaw that unless Madara has been mentally imprinted, it's impossible for him not to notice it.

Clearly, Ban did not have the Chinese ideology stamp.

As for why people who didn't receive the "ideological stamp" still believe in such an outrageous plan, they are wrong.

Well, sometimes when you get really obsessed, it's like this.

Just like some people pray to gods and Buddhas when they are seriously ill, some people believe in Qin Shi Huang, and some people believe that the person on the other end of the line is a white-collar elite and then send them money even though they hear broken Mandarin.

To an outsider, isn't this loophole obvious? It's clearly a scam, how can you believe it?

But the person involved really couldn't have thought of that much.

Moreover, Black Zetsu's deception of Madara was actually quite clever.

The fact that only the Sharingan could see the stone tablets, while the Mangekyou Sharingan could see even more, immediately made Madara abandon the possibility that someone had forged them.

Secondly, he also verified that the combined power of Senju and Uchiha could grant him the power of all things in the universe.

If everything before was true, how could the rest be a lie? That Rinnegan is the eye of the Sage of Six Paths; it's not fake!

This is equivalent to the other side not saying a word and immediately sending a hundred million.

Who would suspect this is a scam?

Although he had shifted the blame, Ban still looked completely bewildered.

After all, he dedicated his entire life to this plan!

Now you're telling me that my entire life has been wasted?

Ning Yuan patted Ban on the shoulder, but his attention was on Hei Jue.

Black Zetsu has always appeared to have little combat power, yet he managed to launch a sneak attack on Madara Uchiha. This incident, while raising the bar for sneak attacks, could also be interpreted as Madara being unprepared for Black Zetsu, or Madara suddenly gaining a significant amount of power that he hadn't yet mastered.

No matter how many reasons there are, the fact that Black Zetsu pierced Madara's back is undeniable.

As for how strong Madara's defense is, it's at the level where he could withstand the Seven Gates Guy without getting hurt, and only the Eight Gates Guy could injure him.

Therefore, Black Zetsu's penetrating power is at least at the level of Eight Gates Guy.

If he were to launch a surprise attack now, it's hard to say whether Ning Yuan could dodge it, but Ban would definitely be gone.

However, Black Zetsu didn't seem to have any intention of launching a surprise attack; he simply sat silently to the side.

What's going on? I'm about to expose your plan, why are you acting so nonchalant?

Ning Yuan was confused, but his main task now was to comfort Madara: "Actually, in my opinion, this plan isn't entirely useless. If the Infinite Tsukuyomi can be exited at any time, or ended after just one dream, maybe it really could achieve peace?"

"Really?" Ban looked up blankly. "I'm not well-educated, don't try to fool me."

"However, this Infinite Tsukuyomi needs to be changed. We can't let everyone have their own dreams; instead, we should bring everyone into the same world!" Ning Yuan said. "That way, if there's hatred in reality, we can resolve it in the Infinite Tsukuyomi. If there are conflicts between villages, we can have a fight in the Infinite Tsukuyomi. Once all the conflicts are vented in the Infinite Tsukuyomi, reality will naturally be peaceful!"

"Hmm, this..." Madara blinked, "It seems to make some sense!"

However, he still needs to think about the specifics of how to do it, because the current Infinite Tsukuyomi does not have a logout function.

"Furthermore, a way to achieve world peace is not to let everyone have a good dream, but a nightmare!" Ning Yuan said.

"Nightmare?" Madara blinked. "What do you mean?"

"You want world peace, right? Then let everyone experience the pain of war first. And this war can't just affect ninjas; ordinary people have to be dragged in too."

"Launch a war that affects the five great nations and all the smaller countries, from noble ninjas at the top to bandits and commoners at the bottom, and then end with no survivors, turning the world into a wasteland!"

"In this way, everyone will understand the pain of war, and anyone who wants to start a war will be stopped by those around them!"

Ban nodded thoughtfully. "That makes sense!"

"Moreover, this trick is also replicable. If this generation forgets the pain of war, then the next generation can do it again. Every twenty years, there will be an Infinite Tsukuyomi, ensuring that no one will want to start a war."

Ban's face already showed obvious interest; this was a good move.

The main issue is that the above-mentioned technology is quite difficult to implement.

"However, both of these methods have a common problem: they will severely test your lifespan. Once you die, no one will be able to activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi again. Once this generation forgets the pain of war, the next generation will have to start another war!" Ning Yuan said quickly, seeing that Madara seemed somewhat tempted.

"Lifespan!" Madara frowned immediately. Yes, that is a problem.

Even if you become the Sage of Six Paths, it won't matter, because the Sage of Six Paths is also dead.

Even the Six Paths Immortals cannot achieve immortality, let alone myself.

In other words, Infinite Tsukuyomi can only guarantee world peace while he is alive; once he dies, the war will continue.

Unless, of course, the Rinnegan is passed down, and one's peaceful will is also passed down.

"Actually, there is a way. Although you may be gone, your eyes can be passed on!" Ning Yuan seemed to see through Ban's thoughts and said, "But there's a problem with doing that!"

"Any more questions?" Ban was bewildered. Why were there so many questions?

"The next person isn't you; they don't have your iron will. Besides, that person might have a wife and children, a whole family to support. You can activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi if you want to, but what if their wife and children try to persuade them not to? What will they do? Will they agree or disagree?"

"After all, being ravaged by war while in the Infinite Tsukuyomi is certainly not a pleasant memory!"

"If he were just a little more easily swayed, he might agree, and then we'd be back in the same cycle, with no one activating Infinite Tsukuyomi and the war continuing."

Ban was completely bewildered. All I wanted was to achieve world peace, so why was it so difficult?

"Isn't there a way to achieve a permanent and lasting peace?" Madara asked.

"Yes!" Ning Yuan said.

"What method?" Ban immediately perked up.

"It's the same method you used before!" Ning Yuan said.

"Me before? What method?" Ban was bewildered. Had I suggested any feasible method?

"World unification!" Ning Yuan laughed. "I think this method is excellent and highly feasible!"

"This won't work!" Madara shook his head without hesitation. "I've already lost to Hashirama, proving this path is wrong too!"

"I think the exact opposite. Your failure proves the success of this approach!" Ning Yuan shook his head.

"Huh?" Madara blinked. "What do you mean?"

"You've made yourself the protagonist, so you feel like you've lost, and your ideals have failed. But if you put yourself in Hashirama's shoes, and he defeated you, then you're no longer his enemy. Doesn't that mean you've achieved peace between the two of you?"

Ban blinked. "Oh, that seems to be true!"

"You also gathered all the other ninja clans in the Land of Fire and unified them. Isn't that a form of unification? You should know better than I what the Land of Fire was like before unification. And after unification, is there still war in the Land of Fire?"

"That's right!" Madara slapped his thigh. Before unification, there was no such thing as the Land of Fire; it was called the Warring States period!

After unification, let's not worry about the outside world for now; at least the Land of Fire is indeed at peace!

"Look, the unification method has already proven to be correct, allowing clans like the Senju and Uchiha, who have been at odds for over a thousand years, to find peace. Now it's simply a matter of showcasing this successful example from the Land of Fire to the whole world!" Ning Yuan laughed. "Now, do you still think the unification method is wrong?"

"No, no, no, no, that's right, this method is correct!" Madara suddenly realized, then gave a bitter laugh: "Hahahaha, Hashirama, I'm right, you're wrong!"

Looks like I've convinced Ban!

Actually, Ban is also a proud and arrogant person. If you say directly, "I have a solution," he might argue back.

But the strategy of unification was originally proposed by Ban himself.

How could he possibly oppose me!
