What is the essence of Infinite Tsukuyomi?
Obito frowned, thinking to himself, "Isn't Infinite Tsukuyomi just a large-scale Genjutsu?"
Senga gently brushed aside the stray hairs on her forehead, and then, a blood-red Magatama Rinnegan opened.
Upon seeing this scene, Minato and Obito were instantly stunned. That blood-red Rinnegan possessed a captivating power that made one feel drawn into it just by looking at it.
Fortunately, Senga quickly deactivated the Rinnegan on her forehead, which brought the two of them back to their senses.
After recovering, Obito still looked somewhat dazed. He asked blankly,
"What was that just now? Was I under Genjutsu?"
What level of Genjutsu would it be to Genjutsu for someone like him who has the Mangekyo eye?
Minato, also looking shaken, spoke up.
"Senga, did you just use Genjutsu on me? It felt like a dream."
Senga nodded and said softly,
"That's the so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi. As long as I project the Pupil Power of my Rinne Sharingan onto the moon, I can activate this technique. Any living being, whether or not they see the moon, will be affected and trapped in a dream forever."
"What?! This is terrifying. Making everyone live in a dream—is this Uchiha Madara's goal?"
Obito stared blankly at Senga. As far as he knew, to activate Infinite Tsukuyomi, one had to collect all the Tailed Beast Chakra to revive the Ten-Tails, and then use the Ten-Tails to activate Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Judging from Senga's words, he can activate Infinite Tsukuyomi right now?
Obito couldn't help but ask,
"Then why haven't you activated Infinite Tsukuyomi yet? Is it related to the 'essence' you mentioned?"
"Of course, do you think Infinite Tsukuyomi is just a Genjutsu? Once a creature falls into its trap, its Chakra will be continuously drained, causing the Ten-Tails to bear Chakra fruit, which will then be consumed by certain people."
Obito's expression grew increasingly grim, and he continued to ask,
"The creature Infinite Tsukuyomi will die soon?"
"Hehe, it's not exactly death. They will transform into another form, and you should be very familiar with that form."
What is it!?
"Those White Zetsu, and that Tobi who was attached to you before."
Obito was struck dumb; this completely overturned his understanding. In the end, was everything he had done merely to provide people with that so-called Chakra?
He said with a ferocious expression,
"So Uchiha Madara's real goal was to eat that so-called Chakra Fruit?!"
"You're wrong again. Madara's goal is the same as yours: to use the Infinite Tsukuyomi to create a world without war. But unfortunately, he was also deceived."
"What?! What's going on?!"
Obito was already somewhat delirious; he and Madara had both been deceived. Who had tricked them? The Sage of Six Paths?
"Didn't you notice anything strange about Black Zetsu?"
"Black Zetsu? Wasn't he created by Madara?"
"That's just what he made Madara believe. Could Madara, in his state at the time, really have done that?"
Minato stood to the side, his face completely bewildered. One moment it was White Zetsu, the next it was Black Zetsu —what was all this about?!
Obito, however, became increasingly alarmed as he listened, as if he had discovered a new continent.
"You mean Black Zetsu is the one manipulating everything? And what is his purpose?"
"His goal was simple: to save his mother." (Tianlai Novel Network)
"?"
Obito, thinking of Black Zetsu's appearance, couldn't imagine what kind of creature his mother could be. Could she be the Ten-Tails?
At this point, Senga had lost interest in continuing. Explaining the Otsutsuki family was too complicated; it was enough to let Obito know that everything he had done was heading in the wrong direction.
Obito was silent for a moment, then looked up at Senga and said,
Is everything you've said true?
Senga shrugged and said nonchalantly,
What good would it do me to lie to you? Believe it or not.
After saying that, Senga grabbed Minato and left the Door-Door Space.
After the two left, Obito lowered his head, his gaze unfocused, and murmured,
"Was I... really wrong?"
After Minato followed Senga out, he immediately asked,
"Senga, what are you going to do with Obito?"
"We'll see. What, you want to plead for your good apprentice? He's the one who killed you and Kushina."
"But it seems Obito was also deceived. You had contact with him back then, and he really was a good kid!"
"So you've chosen to forgive him? Did you ask Kushina about this?"
"Um, speaking of which, there's actually something else I wanted to ask. Senga, is there any limitation to your revival technique...?"
Minato looked at Senga with hopeful eyes, almost as if he was about to tell her directly about reviving Kushina.
Senga glanced at him and said irritably,
"What's wrong? Feeling lonely without a wife?"
As she spoke, Senga flicked Minato's forehead with her finger. As Minato clutched his head and cried out in pain, Senga turned and left, leaving behind only one sentence:
"You should know where Kushina's body is, right? Find her in the next few days, and you don't need to worry about anything else!"
Minato paused for a moment, then suddenly jumped up from the ground, shouting excitedly.
"Okay, okay! Senga, you're the best!"
After saying that, Minato ignored the mountain of documents piled up on the table and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to run away. He was going to take Naruto to dig up graves!
Amegakure
Deva Path Pain frowned deeply, looking at Zetsu before him with displeasure, and said...
"You mean Uchiha Madara went to Konoha and hasn't returned yet?"
Black Zetsu and White Zetsu are still connected. White Zetsu remained silent, only Black Zetsu answered with a solemn expression.
"Yes, Madara knows Space-Time Ninjutsu, so he shouldn't have been gone for so long without any news. I suspect he's encountered some trouble in Konoha!"
"Hmph! You kept telling me to be careful of Konoha, but you went Konoha yourself and got captured?"
Black Zetsu looked at Pain's disdainful Pain and cursed inwardly.
"What are you? If Obito gone, do you think an idiot like you can complete the plan? Can my mother be brought back to life?"
Black Zetsu suppressed his anger and said calmly,
"Bandit shouldn't be caught, but just to be on the safe side, I think we should still send someone to gather information, and it would be best if they could provide backup for him!"
"Aren't Hidan and Kakuzu near Konoha? Let's send them to scout around!"
Upon hearing these two names, Black Zetsu fell silent. He couldn't help but think...
Are those two really reliable?
