Chapter 199 Hibernation

Kirigakure, secret laboratory.

A violent chakra riot occurred, and the entire laboratory was instantly pierced by countless wooden spikes.

However, the guards around seemed to be used to it and just dodged to the side to prevent themselves from being injured by the flying wood spikes.

Inside the laboratory, Obito, or Black Zetsu, was struggling to get up.

In the original story, Obito has a very buggy place. That is, his Kamui seems to be used casually. There is no sense of consumption at all.

This could be explained by the fact that he had Hashirama cells in his body. But in fact, after Aoba transplanted Hashirama cells, he realized that this was impossible.

Even with Hashirama's cells, the Mangekyo couldn't recover so quickly.

The only possibility is that Madara or Kuroko did something to Obito's body.

Aoba is more inclined to believe that Obito's body was transformed by Black Zetsu using Yin Yang Release, which is why he has such a strong recovery ability.

This method is definitely not something that can be used lightly. Obito was the most important chess piece at the beginning, so Black Zetsu spent a lot of effort to transform his body.

But in the previous battle in Konoha, Obito's body was completely damaged. Not only that, Black Zetsu himself also lost part of his body.

This caused Black Zetsu to fall into a weak state after escaping. Obito's body can be repaired. All he needs is a White Zetsu to make up for it.

But Black Zetsu's body was separated from Kaguya's, and he couldn't recover it by himself.

This is also the reason why Black Zetsu likes to be the sixth. Once its body is damaged, no one in the entire ninja world can repair it.

It took several months and hundreds of White Zetsu, and Black Zetsu could only recover about 70%.

For the remaining 30%, there is no hope unless Kaguya is resurrected.

This made Black Zetsu even more silent. Kumogakure and Iwagakure were defeated, and Konoha became the leader. He was also unmoved. There was no other way, the last trip to Konoha had dealt him too much of a blow.

For a guy who was used to being the sixth, that ambush really scared Black Zetsu.

It decided to hide behind the scenes again. Now that Uchiha Madara had appeared, it could just manipulate Uchiha Madara to continue advancing its plan.

But Madara is not so easy to manipulate. Because at present, Uchiha Madara does not seem to have any interest in catching the tailed beast.

He focused all his energy on regaining the Rinnegan and truly resurrecting himself.

However, due to Aoba's intrusion, Black Zetsu lost his position in the Akatsuki organization, which made it difficult for him to approach Nagato.

Obito's Kamui is not absolutely invincible. Moreover, he only has one eye. Facing Nagato's Samsara Eye, Black Zetsu instinctively felt a little weak.

Fortunately, Madara did not count on the incomplete Black Zetsu. He prepared to go into battle himself, take back the Samsara Eye, and then use the Samsara Natural Technique to revive himself.

However, dealing with Nagato is not as easy as imagined. After all, the other party now controls the Rain Country.

And after Xiaonan's governance over the years, the Rain Country is much stronger than in the original plot, and was not affected by the last war.

To take back the Rinnegan from Nagato means going to war with the entire Rain Country.

As for the Rain Country where the Akatsuki organization is stationed, it is no exaggeration to say that it ranks second in the entire ninja world except Konoha.

Apart from anything else, even if any two of the Kage-level masters in the Akatsuki organization were to leave, it would take a large ninja village to resist them.

Black Zetsu sent a large number of White Zetsu to sneak into Rain Village for reconnaissance, but the result was not optimistic.

"Are there no loopholes?"

"No, it's not that there are no loopholes. With Madara-sama's strength, the defense line of the entire Rain Village is actually full of loopholes. But the high-end combat power of this village is somewhat beyond imagination.

According to my intelligence, the leadership of Rain Village has a close relationship with Konoha's Kamikawa Aoba. In addition to having a lot of high-end combat power, they also have a complete sealing team. "

Uchiha Madara frowned after hearing this.

He is very strong now, but he himself dare not say that he is invincible. Compared with the Impure World Form in the plot, Madara is even weaker now.

Because Black Zetsu summoned Madara in advance, in order to prevent Madara from being difficult to control, the sacrifice he used to summon Madara was not the best White Zetsu. This caused Madara's strength to shrink.

The Filthy Earth Body is not afraid of nothing.

The power of Yin-Yang Release can actually hurt or even seal Madara. At the same time, the sealing technique performed by the advanced sealing class together is also a threat to Madara.

If Madara hadn't fought that battle with Aoba, he would have absolutely no taboos and would have directly rushed into the Rain Village to fight Nagato.

Because deep down, he had never looked down upon the ninjas of this era.

But after the battle with Aoba, he realized that he was not yet invincible in the ninja world.

Once he openly attacked an independent ninja village, he would be exposed to the entire ninja world. At that time, he would be directly besieged by the entire ninja world.

If he was defeated and sealed in the Impure Earth Body, he would never be able to recover.

So, in the end, Madara was able to hold on.

Konoha, Hokage's office.

"I still don't understand, why don't we just announce the truth to the entire ninja world?"

Tsunade was confused by Aoba's cover-up. What she wanted now was to announce the truth and gather the power of the entire ninja world.

Whether it's Uchiha Madara or Black Zetsu, just kill them in one wave and then everything will be fine, right?

"Announce what truth? Tell the entire ninja world that the mastermind behind this is Uchiha Madara, or the son of a chakra ancestor from ancient times?"

"Why not? We already have a lot of evidence in our hands. We can definitely..."

"Hokage-sama, I understand what you mean. You want to use this evidence to prove that what you said is right. And then use it to unite the entire ninja world. But I can tell you clearly.

Even if everyone believes what you said, the ninja world will never be completely united. Because the power of uniting the entire ninja world does not depend on right or wrong, but on...interests. "

"Uchiha Madara threatens the entire ninja world. Isn't it in our common interest to defeat him?"

Tsunade is not stupid. What she said is actually completely correct. A common enemy of the ninja world. Naturally, the ninja world needs to defeat it together.

"Can you prove that Uchiha Madara threatens the entire ninja world? He's doing nothing now."

“But he always does it.”

"Yes, but that's the truth. Even though everyone knows that Uchiha Madara is the enemy, and everyone knows that he will threaten the entire ninja world. But before he does it, it is absolutely impossible for the ninja world to unite.

Sometimes I feel ashamed of being a human being. Because humans are such fucked-up creatures. Unless a knife is put to their neck, they won’t react.”
