The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

The dark figure slowly approached from the past.

They arrived at Obito's side, where he had ordered the newly appeared White Zetsu to completely simulate the chakra of a Yuanshi and transform into the appearance of a Yuanshi.

"Should we start now? If we take over the power of Kirigakure, we can definitely throw the entire ninja world into chaos."

Black Zetsu asked softly in a low voice.

"No, we can't rush things. We've only just taken control of this ninja village. We need to further refine and organize it to ensure that everything is foolproof. Don't forget our last failure, and understand that the current Kirigakure is just an empty shell. It can't be considered a truly great ninja village. Taking action arbitrarily will not only be ineffective but will also arouse suspicion among some intelligent people in Kirigakure. Although we can eliminate these guys at any time, they are valuable consumables unless absolutely necessary. We can't act recklessly; we must make full use of their last bit of value."

Obito shook his head slightly, a cold smile on his face, and said in a chilling voice.

With the addition of Mianma, there was also Mianma's defection.

This makes the situation in the ninja world vastly different from that in the original work.

In particular, the several major battles triggered by Menma's existence made the relationship between the major ninja villages more tense and dangerous. Although it seemed that they had restrained themselves later, such suppression only made the relationship between them more strained.

Even from Obito's perspective.

It is also easy to see the hostile relationship between the major powers.

Under such circumstances.

It only takes a gentle push.

Adding just one more spark would be enough to completely ignite this giant powder keg.

After more than a decade of waiting and planning, Obito longed to realize his dream world where he could always have Rin.

He naturally wouldn't allow any mistakes to occur at this final step.

For the Akatsuki organization, Nagato was naturally its most important trump card, and the role of Kirigakure should not be underestimated.

This time, Obito's goal is to bring about a true rebirth for the entire ninja world.

Black Zetsu showed no outward change upon hearing Obito's words, but inwardly he felt increasingly satisfied.

That's exactly the kind of plan executor we need.

Intelligent, rational, and possessing formidable strength.

It can be said that at this moment, Obito truly fulfilled Black Zetsu's request.

"So what's your next step?"

Black Zetsu then asked.

This is not Black Zetsu testing or probing Obito.

so far.

This filial son who moved the ninja world for a thousand years was indeed unaware of Obito's entire plan, but he roughly understood that Obito wanted to use the conflicts between the major ninja villages to further intensify their tensions and thus drive a confrontation between them.

If a battle situation almost identical to the Third Shinobi World War were to occur.

Their plans for the organization can then proceed smoothly.

It's important to understand that in that great war, each country's ninja village lost thousands of ninjas. The five major ninja villages alone lost about 20,000 to 30,000 ninjas, which is almost a quarter to a third of the ninja world's total. And that only includes those who died in battle. The number of ninjas who were crippled and lost their ninja qualifications, or those who were seriously injured and had difficulty recovering in a short time, was countless.

Even the victorious Konoha and Iwagakure needed a long recovery period, not to mention the defeated Kumogakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure.

If we can trigger another major war like this that lasts at least two or three years, it will not only greatly deplete the strength of the major ninja villages, but also increase the hatred and division between them, making it easier for the Akatsuki organization to defeat them one by one.

Their intention is to capture all the Jinchuriki of the Tailed Beasts in the entire ninja world.

Once this goal is revealed, it will inevitably attract the attention of all ninja village forces, increasing their hatred and thus preventing such a possibility.

This is something Black Zetsu could guess, but as for how to unfold it, Black Zetsu certainly had his own ideas, but he had no idea what Obito would do.

After all, Obito seems to have become a bit more shrewd now, and he's not so easy to fathom.

"It's very simple. First, we need to further integrate the forces in Kirigakure. Then, through slow guidance, we can gradually gather their hatred. It won't take too long, at most a few months. By then, if we don't take action, these insects in Kirigakure will be demanding a retaliatory attack on Hidden Light Village. You know, before, it was only because the 'Yuan Shi' was suppressing them that we were able to barely restrain ourselves. Now that the 'Yuan Shi' himself has chosen to remain silent, or even fuel the flames, do you think those Kirigakure ninja will still tolerate it?"

Obito sneered, looking at the White Zetsu that had completely imitated the appearance of a Yuan Shi, and said in a cold voice.

"The power of hatred is terrifying."

In this ninja world where wars constantly break out, the struggle for interests is of course the most important thing. The initial conflict between Indra and Ashura was because Hagoromo Otsutsuki recognized his youngest son and allowed Ashura to inherit the Ninjutsu, which led to Indra's dissatisfaction and thus started the thousand-year struggle between the two brothers.

This is one type of conflict of interest.

But similarly, it is also in the midst of constant struggle.

The derivative forces brought about by hatred should not be underestimated.

I won't say more.

Obito himself is the best example. He said all the right things, that everything was for the purpose of building a peaceful world, but in the end, Obito chose to fall into darkness, wasn't it because of Rin Nohara's death?

Isn't this a manifestation of hatred?

Obito himself understood this point so well that he was able to fully grasp and unleash the power of the evil hidden within human nature.

He firmly believed this.

"I see... So, you'll definitely contact Konoha, Iwagakure, Kumogakure, and the like again then, right?"

Hei Jue nodded knowingly and said.

"That's only natural. With a ninja village leading the charge with great enthusiasm, neither Konoha nor Iwagakure will let this opportunity slip by. I know the true colors of these ninja village leaders all too well. They are inherently opportunistic and forget righteousness. Isn't the secretive contact between Iwagakure and Konohagakure the best proof of that?"

Obito said dismissively.

The clandestine connections between ninja villages could be kept secret from others, but it was difficult to hide them from Obito. White Zetsu were natural-born spies, not to mention Black Zetsu, who was the commander-in-chief. The phrase "everywhere" perfectly describes the White Zetsu under Obito's command.

The truth is that the individual combat effectiveness is still relatively weak.

Otherwise, White Zetsu would truly be invincible.

Even so, the White Zetsu's combat power is comparable to that of a regular Chunin, which is why Obito could be so arrogant. Madara left him a full 100,000 White Zetsu.

In the case of direct combat.

One hundred thousand White Zetsu are enough to destroy all opposing forces.

This thing is not afraid of death; it is a first-rate weapon of war.

One of the reasons Obito was so confident was the 100,000 White Zetsu. Compared to the original story, he had also regained control of Kirigakure.

Obito was almost ready to declare his success.

"Yes, you're right."

Black Zetsu nodded in agreement.

Black Zetsu has seen through this ugliness that exists among humans over thousands of years.

The feasibility of Obito's plan.

Black Zetsu is 100% convinced.

This great battle ensued.

Then there are 100,000 White Zetsu as basic combat force, as well as the powerful members of the Akatsuki organization. Black Zetsu was filled with joy at this moment. Such an achievement was worthy of his thousands of years of hard work.

"I'll stay here for a while. Try to find out as much as possible about the situation outside. I'll also entrust you with contacting Nagato. Tell him that the plan will start in the second half of this year or early next year, and that he must make the final preparations."

Obito looked at Black Zetsu with a deep expression and said in a focused tone.

The integration of Kirigakure's forces will take at most three or four months, and with the addition of communication with Konoha and Iwagakure, it will take at most less than six months. Taking other preparation time into account, in any case, a major war should be able to be triggered before the end of the year.

With his previous foundation in place, Obito wasn't worried about anything else.

The most important thing is the preparation on our own side.

As soon as the time is right.

They will immediately launch a plan to capture the tailed beasts.

Obito absolutely could not allow the Ten-Tails' revival and the release of the Infinite Tsukuyomi technique to fail.

"Yes, I understand, don't worry."

Black Zetsu nodded.

After responding, he attempted to slip away and leave.

"Oh, right, we still need to keep a close eye on Uzumaki Menma. He already has four tailed beasts there (Obito only knows about the Two-Tails, Six-Tails, Seven-Tails, and Nine-Tails so far), which is our biggest target in our future plans. We absolutely cannot have any problems with intelligence gathering!"

Obito seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and then said in a deep voice.

"Ah, no problem!"

After a pause, Black Zetsu responded again.

After deliberately pausing for two or three seconds, and seeing that Obito had given no further instructions, Black Zetsu then burrowed underground and disappeared into the distance.

"What a pity for Madara and Obito, both such intelligent children... But you were destined only to become nourishment for Mother to unleash!"

A person who schemes against others.

There will eventually come a time when you will be outmaneuvered by others.

Madara and Obito at this point have absolutely no way of knowing that their so-called peace plan is merely a basic condition for a special woman to break free from her seal.

The darkness and malice that gradually emerged.

It also quietly spread throughout the entire ninja world, but unfortunately, almost no one was aware of it.

And it was only after Obito successfully completed his efforts over the past few months that he achieved this.

When they regained control of Kirigakure.

The eastern district of Guangyin Village, located in the heart of the mainland.

Menma finally had the opportunity to meet with Nara Shikaku, the greatest strategist of Konoha.

Nearly five days had passed since the end of the celebration.

It should be said.

Such patience was somewhat beyond Menma's expectations. You see, in Iwagakure, Koto had already made a request for a meeting on the third day after the festival ended.

As expected.

During this meeting, Tsuchikage discussed various aspects of cooperation between the two villages, including but not limited to the provisions of the previous alliance. He even subtly mentioned Konoha and Kumogakure. It can only be said that the old Tsuchikage somewhat underestimated Menma's temperament and intelligence-gathering ability.

He truly acknowledges Menma's excellence.
