"What the hell is going on?!!"
Uchiha Madara, who had been watching coldly with an indifferent expression, twitched at the corner of his eye. A bad feeling rose in his heart. His reason told him to stop Hiko, or something huge would happen.
"..."
Black Zetsu's mind had gone blank. Even with all his knowledge and experience, he found this unbelievable. Someone was actually directly absorbing the Ten-Tails' cells!!!
Was this some kind of joke?
Suddenly, Black Zetsu remembered how Hiko had once demanded Uchiha Madara's cells. His heart skipped a beat. Could Hiko possess some special method of absorbing other people's cells to strengthen himself?!
Looking closely at Hiko's meteoric rise, he had not only awakened the Mangekyo with ease, but had even obtained the Eternal Mangekyo while carrying many hidden secrets. Was that thing really so easy to acquire?
And there was Wood Style. Uchiha Madara had only been able to use Wood Style after transplanting Senju Hashirama's cells. Since Hiko could use Wood Style, did that mean he had absorbed Senju Hashirama's cells?
Then he had absorbed Uchiha Madara's cells, awakening the Eternal Mangekyo and the Rinnegan...
The possibility existed, though it sounded absurd. Yet Black Zetsu now felt that, absurd as it was, the chances were high. The more he thought about it, the more terrified he became.
"Lord Madara, no matter what, we cannot let him successfully absorb the Ten-Tails' cells. Even if we don't know how he is doing it, we must stop him!!!"
Black Zetsu believed they could not let this continue. Given Hiko's current state, it was entirely possible for him to become another Kaguya Otsutsuki or Sage of Six Paths. If that happened, their plan would be in danger.
"I know."
Uchiha Madara's gaze at Hiko turned cold and sinister. Anyone
