"Was it you who led Hei Zi here?"
"Um, actually..."
After a brief explanation, Kyosuke learned that the old silver coin's persistent ghost had come back to haunt him.
Left with no other choice, Fūma Kōshi could only act as a mouthpiece for the other side.
The purpose is simple: to invite Kyosuke to the manor for a chat, or to the Uchiha's place if you prefer, it doesn't matter where it is.
What is this bastard up to now?
Kyosuke, skilled and daring, agreed to the meeting without much thought.
As for any potential ambushes, even the Moon Ambush couldn't do anything to him, let alone now that he's still in Konoha.
On the contrary, it is Black Zetsu who should be worried.
Kyosuke now, it's questionable whether it can even escape, let alone resist.
Soon, the two arrived at the territory of the Fūma and saw the Impure World Body under the control of Black Zetsu.
"As expected, the old silver coin isn't so easily overlooked." Kyosuke wasn't too disappointed.
If success were so easy, he wouldn't need to deal with it.
"Heh..." The moment the two sides met, Black Zetsu habitually wanted to let out a few sinister laughs.
Before it could even open its mouth, it recalled Kyosuke's previous threat and managed to suppress its laughter.
Today they've come seeking cooperation, so we can't afford to give them a bad impression.
Even though it knew that the other party must already hate it to the core.
"Please go ahead, I'll take my leave now." Fūma Kōshi was very clever; he understood that there were many things beyond his comprehension.
Knowing too much when you lack the strength often leads to trouble.
After he left, Black Zetsu immediately said, "Enough with the small talk, you should have seen your mother on the moon, right?"
"No." Kyosuke denied it without even thinking.
"Don't lie to me." Black Zetsu said in a dark tone, "I've examined the Space–Time Barrier you set up; there are traces of Mother's abilities inside."
"Although Kaguya is not proficient in Ninjutsu, her mastery of Space-Time manipulation is unparalleled. Without her guidance, you could not have achieved such a significant breakthrough."
"... You already know, why ask? Are you crazy?" Kyosuke rolled his Byakugan, then thought for a moment and retorted, "I've always been curious, why don't you go to the moon yourself to unseal Kaguya?"
"Heh, do you really think Ōtsutsuki Hamura is an idiot?"
Black Zetsu said with a serious expression, "I'm warning you, the Six Paths brothers won't perish so easily. If you dare to attack the seal, you will inevitably invite unpredictable and terrifying consequences."
"Don't let your current dominance in the Shinobi World fool you; let me tell you, your strength is still worlds apart from those two."
I believe that... Kyosuke tall and unmoved, seemingly undisturbed by the other party.
Seeing this, Black Zetsu gritted his teeth and revealed a very secretive piece of information. "I can also tell you that the Ninja Sect actually has a lineage that has been preserved, and there are quite a few people among them, many of whom possess extraordinary strength."
Ninja Sect?
This was a somewhat unfamiliar term to Kyosuke.
All he knew was that the Sage of Six Paths founded the Ninja Sect, which was later handed over to his Second Son, Asura, to manage.
Wasn't it disbanded a long time ago? How come there's still a tradition left?
After thinking for a moment, he asked, "What's the point of keeping it? To resurrect the Sage of Six Paths?"
Hmm... Black Zetsu was somewhat surprised. Why did it feel that the other party was unusually calm?
Those in power dislike situations that are beyond their control.
Whatever the Ninja Sect intends to do, it will inevitably have an impact on Konoha.
How come he doesn't seem to care at all? Is he so cunning that even it can't see through him?
"... All I know is that the Sage of Six Paths will indeed be resurrected someday in the future."
"He was acutely aware of the gap between himself and his mother, and for a thousand years, he had been trying to find a way to break through the shackles of life."
"I suspect that Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo has already found a solution."
The so-called solution is to break through to a level comparable to Divine Fire Level without consuming Chakra Fruit.
Only in this way could the Sage of Six Paths obtain the ability to kill the Ōtsutsuki.
Kyosuke understood that a powerful enemy at the Divine Fire Level would inevitably appear in the future, and how could Hagoromo, as the Sage of Six Paths, not know this?
As for the methods used, it seemed Black Zetsu didn't know, so he didn't bother to ask any further.
"You've come to me not because you want me to help you deal with the Sage of Six Paths, right?"
"Don't even think about it. Although your mother is indeed still charming, I'm not ready to be your stepfather."
Kyosuke didn't hold back in his sarcastic remarks.
In fact, if it weren't for his Impure World Body, he would have already attacked Old Silver Coin.
Let's talk about it after we've captured the other party.
Words like "stepfather" were not enough to anger Black Zetsu.
If it can't even tolerate this little thing, it doesn't deserve to be the mastermind behind the scenes who has dominated the Shinobi World for a thousand years.
After a long silence, it suddenly sighed and finally revealed the main point of its visit.
"Since you have seen your mother, you should know of the existence of Ōtsutsuki Isshiki."
"That guy has found a suitable Reincarnation Vessel and will soon be fully revived. At that time, Mother will face annihilation."
"Kyosuke, I know this is foolish, but I still want to ask you..."
"Please help me save my mother!"
The Filial Son lowered his head, his attitude appearing extremely sincere.
"I admit, many times I've been secretly targeting you."
"I promise you, from this day forward, I will never touch you or your family. Even if your mother were to be resurrected in the future, I will protect your descendants."
Oh ho, so you even know how to use your family to coerce me?
Isn't this moral blackmail?
Kyosuke didn't answer immediately; in fact, he was genuinely worried that the old silver coin would make a move on the two treasures.
That's why he repeatedly refused the two little ones' requests to go out and play.
Even with a Space-Time Sensing device, Kyosuke could reach the child's side in a second, but there was still a considerable risk involved.
If Black Zetsu can keep his promise, it would be a good thing. Besides, that Isshiki will definitely come looking for trouble in Konoha.
We'll have to deal with this sooner or later, so we might as well try joining forces with Black Zetsu.
There was no excessive haggling or deliberate obstruction; both parties understood the importance of the matter, and discussing anything else would have been foolish.
"Do you know where he is?" Kyosuke asked.
"... I don't only know." Black Zetsu sighed deeply, recounting his numerous actions over the past year.
Upon learning that Isshiki had sought out Yayoi Hyuga, it immediately guessed that the girl had probably obtained a perfect Reincarnation Container.
For its mother's safety, it abandoned its pursuit of the Uchiha and instead began a frenzied attack.
There's no need to kill the Monk Cixian; simply destroying the Vessel that hasn't fully matured will disrupt his Reincarnation Ritual.
However, the Impure World Reincarnation army, which Black Zetsu had high hopes for, suffered a complete defeat in front of Jigen.
No matter how strong an expert is, they cannot withstand more than two moves from the White-Robed Monk.
Even though he can only use one-third of his original power, Jigen still possesses combat strength at the peak of the Peak Super Kage Level.
Without the support of Sage Body Cells, the Impure World Reincarnation Army cannot pose an effective threat to the enemy.
Left with no other option, Black Zetsu ultimately had to seek help from outside forces.
That led to this conversation.
