["snort!"]
"They're still using the underground base I built back then."
"Are you afraid I won't be able to find it?"
"Huh?" Hashirama Senju blinked, then scratched his head.
"You mean, you've been hiding here ever since that battle?"
Madara Uchiha: "..."
[Sizzle—]
Madara Uchiha tears open the fabric covering his chest.
[The face of her beloved was revealed.]
[Hehe~]
He gave a cold laugh.
"That exhilarating feeling is really great."
["but."]
"Everything else is fine, it's just this Sage Mode."
"Still disappointing me."
"So-called Sage Mode is nothing special."
[Madara Uchiha was implying something.]
He looked down at the ashes that had appeared on his beloved's face.
Hashirama Senju: "..."
"Then come back, but don't smoke!"
Madara Uchiha raised his head.
[Arms crossed over his chest, gazing at the stone cave that serves as cover.]
[Back then, Obito Uchiha had half his body crushed by rocks right here.]
He looked down at them.
[Ignoring the incessant chatter of Hashirama Senju.]
["come out."]
"Obito."
"Black Zetsu."
[Buzz—]
[The instant the words fell.]
A large amount of blue chakra surged around Madara Uchiha.
[The Third Power: Susanoo!]
In the blink of an eye.
Madara Uchiha stood in mid-air.
[Oh oh oh~]
"So this is what it feels like inside Susanoo?"
"Not bad~!"
"No need for a hairdryer!"
"In the future, when you're working on a project, you can use this lighter and more flexible Susanoo to complete the task!"
"Vice-Captain!"
Madara Uchiha: "..."
["Shut up!"]
"Or I'll kick you off!"
Madara Uchiha didn't care at first.
[He even deliberately ignored Hashirama Senju.]
[The result was simply "vice-captain."]
Madara Uchiha almost broke through his defenses.
Why should I?!
What do you mean by "Vice-Captain of the Fencing Team in Konoha, the Land of Whirlpools"?!
[Shouldn't I be the captain, after all?]
Even if he's the vice-captain, this old bastard shouldn't be his vice-captain!
[How could this be repaired!]
The commotion above naturally traveled down to the underground.
The White Zetsu trembled in fear.
Kabuto looked utterly astonished.
"Uchiha Madara... he's still... he's still here?!"
"And it's not a state of Edo Tensei!"
Kabuto was genuinely shocked.
[After all, he personally resurrected Madara Uchiha using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.]
I know quite a bit about Madara Uchiha.
[This sensed chakra.]
[It has absolutely nothing to do with the Impure World Reincarnation.]
Especially.
[Madara Uchiha's Susanoo was something Kabuto Yakushi personally experienced using the reanimated body of the Second Tsuchikage, Mu.]
[Now. ]
Madara Uchiha has reappeared.
I thought that Madara Uchiha had been dealt with by Naruto Uzumaki.
Unexpectedly.
[It happened again.]
Moreover, judging from this situation...
[And in my senses, there's the humanoid tailed beast beside Madara Uchiha.]
Kabuto Yakushi took a deep breath.
He adjusted his glasses.
"This is bad."
"The mighty Madara Uchiha, actually changed his stance so easily?"
"Wasn't everything that happened today part of his plan?"
As he spoke, Kabuto looked at Black Zetsu.
Black Zetsu's expression seemed off at that moment.
[And its other half is the true form of White Zetsu.]
[He received a secret order from Black Zetsu.]
They separated immediately.
"I'll send White Zetsu to check on the situation."
[With that, the White Zetsu used the Mayfly Technique to pass through the wall.]
[However. ]
The most important thing it needs to do isn't to scout out the outside situation; it might even just send out a White Zetsu to buy some time.
What the White Zetsu's main body needs to do is to get the remaining majority of the White Zetsu army to leave and find a new place to hide.
A way out is essential.
This is Black Zetsu's consistent style of doing things.
Even though Indra has been partially resurrected.
Black Zetsu remains very cautious.
[Unless Kaguya Otsutsuki, the Goddess of the Rabbit, descends upon the ninja world once more.]
Otherwise, it would never have gone all in.
Kabuto Yakushi silently watched as the White Zetsu departed.
[Then he looked at Black Zetsu again.]
[His intuition told him so.]
Black Zetsu holds many secrets.
At this moment.
Black Zetsu was also somewhat anxious.
[Look at Indra, whose eyes are still covered with gauze, fast asleep.]
Madara Uchiha suddenly appears.
[And then suddenly switched sides at the last minute.]
This is absolutely impossible.
[unless...]
[Unless Madara Uchiha already knows everything!]
[what to do? ]
Now that it knows, it naturally won't let go of the person who has deceived it for so many years.
Madara Uchiha and Indra are different.
Indra and Black Zetsu are considered "friendly forces."
In comparison, Madara Uchiha was incredibly arrogant.
Black Zetsu can only rely on the Uchiha Stone Tablet.
[He taught Madara Uchiha how to create his own avatar of consciousness.]
Thus, Black Zetsu officially appeared before Madara Uchiha.
[result. ]
[Now tell Madara Uchiha that he orchestrated all of this.]
[Given Madara Uchiha's personality.]
Even if I escape to the ends of the earth, I will still be hunted down.
Madara Uchiha might say some nice things.
However, he will definitely keep looking for opportunities to get rid of me.
Just as Black Zetsu was panicking and anxious, Kabuto Yakushi reluctantly prepared for battle.
[To buy time for this most perfect work.]
[Strive to allow him to evolve to his most perfect form on his own.]
Suddenly.
[Tear—]
[The sound of gauze being torn is heard.]
Black Zetsu and Kabuto Yakushi both looked in the same direction.
[On the bed.]
Indra's hand was raised high.
Remove the gauze covering his eyes.
[but. ]
His eyes remained tightly closed.
"Black Zetsu."
"Are the beings outside my reincarnation and the reincarnation of Asura?"
"Yes!" Black Zetsu was taken aback, then quickly replied.
["very good."]
"So I don't have to go find it."
"They came together again..."
"However, it's somewhat incomplete."
"It's a reincarnation from the previous life. They should have died, but now they've been resurrected by this reincarnation of Asura!" Black Zetsu quickly said.
[They don't know the specifics, but that's the situation at the moment.]
The appearance of Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju is a fact.
Let's get through this crisis first.
However, looking at Indra's tightly closed eyes...
Black Zetsu hesitated.
"Indra, perhaps we should avoid a direct confrontation for now."
"Your eyes aren't yet..."
[Before the words were finished.]
Indra straightened up.
"Avoid their sharp edge?"
"Whose edge should I avoid?"
"My reincarnation?"
"There's also the reincarnation of Asura?"
