Chapter 601 The Contractor of Mount Myōboku

at the same time

Deep underground, Uchiha Madara tossed Killer Bee's corpse onto the ground as if it were a tattered sack, then gave an order to the White Zetsu beside him:

"White Zetsu, dispose of this Eight-Tails Jinchuriki's corpse. Don't let him pollute this place."

After saying that, a mocking smile appeared on Madara Uchiha's lips.

"This Eight-Tails Jinchuriki is a little mouse who is good at escaping. If I hadn't already awakened the Rinnegan, I might have been fooled by his little tricks."

Upon hearing Madara Uchiha's words, Black Zetsu's gaze also turned to Killer Bee's corpse, and a low, hoarse voice rang out.

"This Eight-Tails Jinchuriki can be said to be the most perfect Jinchuriki in history. No one knows what methods he has. It is indeed difficult to see that he can use the tentacles of the Eight-Tails to create his clones."

If it weren't for Madara, he really would have escaped.

White Zetsu also curiously poked Killer Bee's corpse with his finger, and after hearing Black Zetsu's words, he nodded repeatedly, shouting in agreement:

"Yeah, yeah, this Eight-Tails Jinchuriki is really a cunning guy. He usually hides in Thundercloud Canyon, and even the White Zetsu clones can't get close to him, so they can't gather any information about him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have almost gotten away."

Madara Uchiha naturally wouldn't care much about such a trivial matter. After hearing their words, he waved his hand arrogantly, then turned his gaze to the Gedo Mazo not far away. Seeing that eight of its eyes had opened, he couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.

"Alright, there's no need to talk about these trivial matters. Anyway, we've already put the Eight-Tails into the Gedo Mazo. Now the most important thing is to retrieve the Nine-Tails. That way, we'll only have one step left to complete my plan."

At this point, Madara Uchiha turned his gaze to White Zetsu beside him, his brows furrowed slightly as he asked:

"Where is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, White Zetsu?"

Upon hearing Madara Uchiha's question, White Zetsu, disregarding his examination of Killer Bee's corpse, hastily stood up and stammered:

"Well, a while ago, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki returned to Konoha with Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin. Since then, that brat hasn't appeared again."

At this point, White Zetsu looked away guiltily, no longer daring to look at Uchiha Madara.

After all, it was Madara Uchiha's source of intelligence, and it itself possessed hundreds of thousands of White Zetsu clones, yet the intelligence it obtained was less than satisfactory.

Upon hearing White Zetsu's words, Madara Uchiha fell silent.

Prior to this, Madara Uchiha had sensed his Rinnegan in that location in Konoha.

In other words, his Rinnegan is very likely in the same place as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

At that moment, Obito Uchiha, whose face was grim, suddenly interjected:

"I remember the intelligence report said that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki had signed a contract with Mount Myōboku, and that Jiraiya's lineage had a tradition of going to Mount Myōboku for training."

Therefore, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki may not necessarily be in Konoha Village right now, and he is not the kind of person who can stay in the village peacefully.

In other words, it's highly likely that the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is currently hiding in Mount Myōboku, training.

As he finished speaking, Obito Uchiha's face twitched slightly.

You know, he was also a disciple of the Fourth Hokage, but he didn't get a contract from Mount Myōboku, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

Upon hearing Obito's words, Madara frowned slightly.

Although he wasn't particularly fond of those supposedly sacred sites like Mount Myoboku, Ryuchi Cave, and Shikkotsu Forest, he was well aware of how troublesome they were.

After all, his old rival, Hashirama Senju, only became more troublesome after learning the Sage Mode of Shikkotsu Forest.

Moreover, those sacred sites are hidden in some remote corners, and without a local guide, they are impossible to find.

If that Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is hiding in Mount Myōboku and doesn't come out, then things could get really troublesome.

Thinking of this, Madara Uchiha lightly flicked his fingers and then asked:

"Who else is the contractor of Mount Myōboku? Is it possible to find his whereabouts?"
