Chapter 414 Lost Memories

"Who exactly are you? A member of the Otsutsuki clan... a celestial being?"

Black Zetsu, pinned to the rock wall, struggled, but it was clear it couldn't break free of the black rods binding it.

Yun looked at Black Zetsu: "I've been waiting for you for many years. At the last moment before Kaguya was sealed, it seems that she only gave you an extremely strong ability to hide and the characteristic that ordinary ninjas cannot kill you."

Black Zetsu was stunned, and his body, which had been trying to resist, stopped.

The man in front of her knew its background, and under these circumstances, it seemed that the other party's identity was already clear.

Did the celestial beings come for their mothers?

Plant the divine tree and plunder everything in this world...

Black Zetsu glanced around: "Where's the last one? Come out too."

These words made Yun seem thoughtful.

In Boruto, when the Otsutsuki clan invades, Momoshiki and Kinshiki are a team, with Momoshiki as the master and Kinshiki as the servant. Urashiki, on the other hand, is alone.

Black Zetsu inherited some of Kaguya's memories. From this statement, we can deduce that the Otsutsuki clan usually operates in pairs.

After a moment's thought, Yun replied, "It seems that the chakra in this world has been distributed among the nine tailed beasts. Gathering some chakra will make our movements easier."

"Next, all we need to do is eliminate you and then replant the Divine Tree, and we can get rid of Kaguya, that traitor."

Black Zetsu lowered his head, his mind racing with analysis.

Thousands of years have allowed its brain to work at a rapid pace at this moment.

It did not doubt Uchiha Kumo's current appearance, because when Obito first brought back information about this guy several years ago, he had thought that it might be a fake appearance.

Trying to deceive oneself...

As for celestial beings, the two necessary conditions for planting the Divine Tree are, firstly, the Ten-Tails, and secondly, the bloodline of the Otsutsuki clan.

The sacrifice of servants with the bloodline of the Otsutsuki to the Ten-Tails was the second necessary condition for planting the Divine Tree.

The other party wanted to kill him first, sacrifice his servants to plant the Divine Tree, and gain power by consuming the chakra fruit before targeting his mother.

After pondering for a while, Black Zetsu said, "This planet... can now produce more than one Chakra Fruit."

"Oh?"

Yun became interested. Her previous words had been intended to extract information, but now the other party had clearly misunderstood something.

Black Zetsu raised his head and looked at Yun: "After Mother devoured the Chakra Fruit, the life force of this world did not cease. Countless natives who called themselves gods were wiped out, but the number of ordinary people has continued to grow."

"After that bastard Hagoromo distributed his chakra to ordinary people, the natives who were called ninjas formed a connection with it, and it has been growing generation after generation."

"After thousands of years, their descendants are now able to combine physical and spiritual energy to form new chakra. Although it is insignificant, the base quantity is incredibly vast."

At this point, Black Zetsu's gaze sharpened slightly: "This world is special, and my mother was able to create individuals with the Otsutsuki bloodline, who could serve as sacrifices!"

"If you release Mother, and since you are all of the same race, you can cooperate and obtain a second Chakra Fruit!"

"That guy shouldn't have been your friend. Thousands of years have passed, and no one will remember that bastard's death."

"Chakra is what the Otsutsuki seek, isn't it?"

After he finished speaking, there was a moment of silence.

Yun was pondering the information in the other person's words, while Obito on the other side was completely bewildered.

Obito glanced at Black Zetsu...

This guy is definitely not the embodiment of Madara Uchiha's will; in fact, it's quite possible that Madara Uchiha was also deceived by it.

But who is it?!

In my memory, I clearly saw the division with my own eyes, along with the Ten-Tails' husk and the First Hokage's cells from that time...

Who is Kaguya?

What are the Divine Tree and the Chakra Fruit?

For the first time, Obito, who had always considered himself the mastermind behind everything, realized that his understanding of this world was utterly insignificant.

The world's depletion...

No matter how you look at it, the Divine Tree, something predetermined by the Infinite Tsukuyomi, doesn't seem to be a good situation.

Obito, beneath the mask, had a furrowed brow.

The conversation he had just had led him to speculate about many things, things that could destroy the goal he had always held onto.

"Is that person... already dead?"

Uchiha Un's voice rang out.

Obito didn't know who he was talking about, but Black Zetsu did.

In the memories given to him by his mother, it was the existence of celestial beings that forced him to undergo the trials time and time again.

Success was within reach, but it was too late, because the enemy had already arrived.

"In the memories my mother gave me, he was indeed dead. Otherwise, the divine tree could not have been planted."

Is he dead?

If he dies, will the enemies that appear in Boruto be the same as Momoshiki?

wrong……

The template for a second chance shouldn't be this kind of storyline.

Perhaps only Kaguya Otsutsuki knows the answer to this question.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Yun waved his hand and pulled Black Zetsu over. The black iron rod formed a globe, with several sharp spikes piercing through it from the inside.

With a wave of his hand, he opened a spatial passage and threw the object inside.

Throughout the entire process, Black Zetsu kept his eyes fixed on Uchiha Yun, but did not say anything more.

From the perspective of interests, it has already been made clear that the other party has taken it into consideration.

The fact that he didn't kill himself is the best proof.

In that case, Mother, there is still hope...

Hagoromo and Hamura, those two bastards!

Faced with such an enemy, without Mother, the world they protect will eventually be exhausted and become a barren and desolate planet.

……

The spatial passage closed, and Uchiha Yun looked at Uchiha Obito, who had been standing to the side, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.

"How do you feel after hearing some of the secrets of this world?"

"Gurgle..."

Obito swallowed hard, and for a moment he didn't even dare to look Yun in the eye.

He had never been afraid of facing the Hidden Cloud Village, or even the Kage of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. The power of his eye alone was enough to make him invincible.

But facing this person in front of me, all my reliance on him seems like a joke.

But now... there are some questions that I have to ask.

"The peace of Infinite Tsukuyomi... is it a lie?"

Yun gave a mocking laugh.

"A genjutsu that uses the moon as a medium to envelop the entire ninja world, creating a false world where everyone lives, how long could the real body survive without food and water?"

"In ten days or half a month, putting everything else aside, the sheer cost of survival would be enough to starve them to death. Do you think... this would be true peace?"

In an instant, it was as if a memory from before had resurfaced.

Those were memories I had selectively forgotten, but now they were surging up in my mind.

"Uchiha...Sasuke!"

After letting out a muffled groan, Obito covered his head and squatted down.

This scene surprised Yun as well.

It merely exposed the falsehood of the Infinite Tsukuyomi; Obito in the original world did not do this before.

In my memory, the things that Black Zetsu left behind after altering the stone tablet under the Uchiha Shrine had significant flaws.

Was Madara Uchiha an idiot? Was Obito Uchiha an idiot?

A comparison with the politics of the entire Konoha leadership reveals that no one in this world who has reached the level of Jonin and is still alive is a fool.

Even the unreliable Matt Kai still possesses his own wisdom.

Infinite Tsukuyomi...

As members of the Uchiha clan with the Mangekyou Sharingan, how could they not guess what would happen to someone under the influence of genjutsu in a world of illusions?

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Panting, Obito slowly stood up: "So...so the Infinite Tsukuyomi isn't the real way to peace at all, is it? And the Sage of Six Paths...?"

After pondering for a moment, Yun wanted to see Obito's reaction, so he said, "Strictly speaking, Black Zetsu should be considered the Sage of Six Paths' younger brother, since they were both born from the same person."

"Given his ability to conceal himself and lie in wait for thousands of years, it wouldn't be difficult for him to discover the existence of the stone tablet and then alter its contents."

Obito was stunned: "So... the final outcome of the Infinite Tsukuyomi is that everyone will die within the genjutsu, right?"

Yun replied, "As nourishment for the Divine Tree, the remnants of excessive worry will also become creatures like White Zetsu, obeying orders and serving as the most basic cannon fodder."

"In other words... the dream will eventually end, and at that time, no one can even be called human anymore. Becoming a White Zetsu is more fitting for the title of monster."

As soon as he finished speaking, Obito was momentarily dazed.

Before this, ever since Rin's death, his goal had always been the Infinite Tsukuyomi. To achieve this goal, he was able to unleash the Nine-Tails to kill his teacher and his wife.

To achieve this goal, he accepted Itachi Uchiha's invitation and together they wiped out the entire Uchiha clan.

To achieve this goal, he has now accomplished more than half of it.

But now someone is telling him that it was all a lie?!

"How could this be...?"

As Obito muttered to himself, Yun frowned.

More truths about Infinite Tsukuyomi were revealed, but the other party did not experience the headache they had just experienced.

What went wrong?

Or is it that once the stimulus is triggered, the other person adapts?

"You seemed to have mentioned Uchiha Sasuke just now?"

Obito raised his head: "What you said was also said by Sasuke Uchiha outside Kumogakure when the Akatsuki were collecting the Tailed Beasts."

"But at that time, perhaps because I didn't pay attention, I didn't investigate further and forgot about it."

Forgot?

Yun frowned.

How could one possibly forget such a rhetorical question that concerns Infinite Tsukuyomi?

At this point in time, Obito was not the same Obito who was still helping old ladies in Konoha. After Rin's death, he plotted against Nagato, caused the Nine-Tails attack, and wiped out the Uchiha clan...

The idiot Obito who was essentially the same person now fits the characteristics of a mastermind.

Saying something like "forget" is utterly absurd.

and many more!

memory?

Suddenly, Yun looked up and looked around.

The senses of what could be described as the pinnacle of the entire ninja world spread out, yet everything remained incredibly quiet, without any abnormalities.

So... is the gap still too big?

"So... what is your purpose?"

Obito looked at the cloud, but unconsciously lowered his head: "What is Black Zetsu's purpose? The Mother it spoke of? And what is your purpose in capturing it?"

Yun was still pondering when she replied, "Why should I tell you?"

That simple sentence left Obito speechless for a moment.

Before this, he believed he was the mastermind behind the entire ninja world. But now, it seems he is still just a pawn in the hands of a few people.

Even someone like Madara Uchiha was just a pawn.

"I...don't know what to do now."

Obito casually removed his mask, revealing half of his ferocious face. It seemed that the identity of Tobi, the masked figure, no longer held any meaning for him.

"Originally, I wanted to bring true peace to this world, so that I could also be in the world of Infinite Tsukuyomi, where I would still be in Konoha, with Rin and Kakashi."

"But now... that goal is shattered. And what am I now?"

Yun glanced at the dejected Obito.

"I won't kill you now. Your life should be left to the Uchiha clan that still exists in this world to take back."

"With your parents gone, you grew up with your grandmother and enjoyed the benefits of your family from birth. It was the Uchiha surname that gave you the possibility of survival."

"But you annihilated the Uchiha clan without any reward, and instead destroyed the entire Uchiha clan with your own hands. You owe this clan a debt, and you must repay it."

"Your life... is for Uchiha Sasuke to take. Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo are waiting for you down there."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yun left.

……

In the darkness, in the now empty cave, Obito still stared at the Ten-Tails' husk before him.

The collection of the seven tailed beasts is almost complete, but that guy doesn't seem to have even glanced at them.

Sasuke Uchiha obtained Itachi's eyes, and his eternal Mangekyou Sharingan will soon appear. But that alone is not enough to kill him.

If that guy wants to leave me for Uchiha Sasuke, then I still have time.

The Infinite Tsukuyomi is a fabrication, but becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki is definitely not a fabrication.

If one could obtain such power, then becoming a chess player would not be impossible.

The capture of Black Zetsu wasn't necessarily a bad thing in the first place. With Nagato under his control and Black Zetsu gone, Madara Uchiha had no chance of resurrection.

……

Konoha, Shadow Rock.

"Hey hey hey... So Sasuke, are you here to help Konoha this time?"

Naruto, beaming with excitement, pumped his fist and said, "It's that Akatsuki organization again. If they come this time, I'll definitely show them what I'm made of."

Sasuke, standing to the side, helplessly reminded him, "I've already fought them. Their strength is immense. The abilities of those six guys complement each other, making it impossible to find a way to defeat them."

Naruto raised his chin: "Don't worry... I've been training with the Perverted Sage for a long time, and I might even be stronger than Sasuke now!"
