"Black Zetsu."
Before long, Imu learned of this and was somewhat surprised.
He had not expected Black Zetsu to come knocking on his own, breaking into Wano Island on the Sea Star Homeworld.
"Oh, it must be for the tailed beasts."
Imu immediately guessed Black Zetsu's intentions.
To awaken Kaguya Otsutsuki, he had to gather all nine tailed beasts and fuse them into the Ten-Tails.
As it happened, Imu also wanted to awaken Kaguya Otsutsuki, and Black Zetsu was the only piece still missing.
If Black Zetsu really escaped Wano Island and slipped into the sea this time,
he would probably have to pull out the Star Map and hunt him down personally.
Fortunately, Sea Ninja Village had not disappointed him. Fugaku Uchiha had fulfilled his duties as the Fire Minister.
Now, all that remained was to wait for the Biochemical Research Institute's artificial humans to be cultivated.
Then they could officially begin awakening Kaguya Otsutsuki's true body.
As for Nagato Uzumaki's Rinnegan, the discussions had gone even more smoothly than expected.
Nagato Uzumaki was only twelve this year.
Yet, as a "gifted student," he had skipped grades into the Shinobi World's Sealing and Barrier Specialized Ninja High School.
Together with Hatake Kakashi, who had skipped grades into Fire Style Comprehensive Higher Ninja School, and Might Guy, who had skipped grades into Physical Arts Specialized Higher Ninja School, he was known as one of the "first generation of geniuses in the ninja school world."
Apparently, this had left the Uchiha clan, which had always produced geniuses in abundance, quite displeased.
Unfortunately, at this point in time, they truly did not have any particularly outstanding talents.
Shisui Uchiha was only nine this year, while Itachi Uchiha had only just been born.
Obito Uchiha's performance also made it difficult to regard him
