"Ah, well~, did we fail?"
The Masked Man ninja scratched his head and looked toward Yahiko, who was being given emergency treatment.
"What should we do next? Should we just kill him?"
"..."
Black Zetsu eyed the fellow who had once again started acting strangely. Ever since he had put on Tobi and personally witnessed the person he loved most die before his eyes, the guy had become somewhat abnormal.
He often used an innocent, childlike tone to say utterly ruthless things.
Of course, none of that mattered. He only needed to use his abilities, not have him as a person. Why bother with anything else?
As long as he acted according to his wishes, just like Madara...
Besides...
The Uchiha Clan... having some issues with their personalities was perfectly normal~
He looked over the battlefield, where the fighting had already ended, especially at the enormous statue standing in the middle of it—the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "Forget it. Acting now would expose too much. Besides, that Uzumaki kid summoned the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path according to Lord Madara's instructions."
"So... did we complete the mission? Zetsu, then can we—"
"That counts, I suppose~, but we can't possibly attack at a time like this. Besides... grief is only truly painful the first time." Zetsu cut him off directly. "Tobi... Obito, now really isn't a good time to act. Perhaps we'll need to change targets next time!"
"No, no... Black Zetsu, that's not what I meant, okay~? I was asking... can I go back to painting now?" the Masked Man ninja said excitedly. "Ever since I merged with Obito, I haven't had a moment of freedom. Obito is just too incredible. He leaves me exhausted every day~"
"..."
Zetsu speechlessly
