Black Zetsu's words were choked back, his head buzzing, and he forgot why he had come. The White Zetsu, meanwhile, started shouting.
"Hey, he knows!"
"He really knows!"
"Our plan is exposed!"
"What should we do?"
"Should we kill him to silence him?"
"Silence!" Black Zetsu snarled, his face grim, stopping the White Zetsu from leaking any more information. His eyes locked onto Uchiha An, radiating killing intent.
"Haha..." Uchiha An completely ignored Black Zetsu's killing intent, laughing wildly.
"Black Zetsu, I'm not interested in your affairs. I don't care if Kaguya is released, nor do I care if the ninja world is destroyed..."
"I don't care about anything!"
"I only care about one thing!"
"And that is, will Konoha be destroyed!"
Black Zetsu studied Uchiha An's crazed and twisted face for a long time before finally nodding solemnly and promising, "Don't worry, as long as you don't obstruct my plans, I can guarantee you that Konoha will definitely be destroyed!"
"Haha... That's good! That's good!" Uchiha An roared with laughter.
Zetsu's body slowly sank towards the ground but suddenly paused, hesitating as he asked, "Hey, An, did your eyes see the outcome?"
"In the future, did I succeed in rescuing Mother?"
"Hmm?" Uchiha An paused his laughter, tilted his head to look at Zetsu, and nodded with feigned seriousness, "You did!"
"Of course, you did!"
"But..."
Before Black Zetsu could show a surprised smile, Uchiha An's expression changed again, revealing a strange grin filled with naked malice, and he started laughing even more maniacally.
"But your elder brother, Sage of Six Paths Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo, suddenly reappeared and caused a fuss, sealing your mother Kaguya away again!"
"Haha..."
"Nani?" Black Zetsu became furious, trembling all over. He yelled in exasperation, "He's not dead yet?"
"That bastard!"
"He doesn't deserve to be Mother's son!"
"If it weren't for him and Ōtsutsuki Hamura meddling, how could Mother have been sealed?"
"I'm going to kill him!"
"I will definitely kill him!"
Black Zetsu cursed as he controlled his body to sink into the ground, disappearing from the room.
After Zetsu left, the smile on Uchiha An's face gradually faded, replaced by a look of deep-seated hatred.
He wouldn't let Konoha off!
He wouldn't let Uchiha Itachi off!
And he certainly wouldn't let Uchiha Obito off!
So why should Black Zetsu be spared?
Just because he didn't directly participate in the Uchiha clan massacre?
If one were to dig deep, Black Zetsu was the mastermind behind everything, the one who should be dealt with most severely!
However, revenge must be taken one by one, and things must be done step by step. It wasn't time to deal with him yet; he would be used for now.
Uchiha An sat on the bed, gazing absently at the empty space by the window, waiting for Uchiha Obito to come and kill him.
Nagato had forbidden him from provoking Obito, but if Obito broke the rules first, he couldn't be blamed!
Even though he had been on the run for days without sleep and had fought several battles, his body was extremely exhausted. He had also spent a long time treating Nagato, leaving his chakra and ocular power at a low ebb.
But just thinking about how he could soon make Obito suffer a great loss filled Uchiha An with energy, and he didn't feel tired at all.
As expected, it wasn't long before Obito arrived.
The Uchiha were always arrogant, and Obito was no exception.
He walked in through the main entrance as if it were his own home, his intangible body allowing him to ignore any obstacles.
"Yo, isn't that Obito?" Uchiha An leaned against the headboard, waving a greeting. "What, do you want to ask me about your good buddy Kakashi's recent situation?"
An understood Obito well and knew how to provoke him to the greatest extent.
As expected, the moment he heard Kakashi's name, Obito exploded.
"Don't mention that name to me!" Obito shouted furiously, "I'll kill him sooner or later!"
"Oh, is that so..." Uchiha An said understandingly, "That's simple!"
"I'm the type of person who loves to help others."
"I can help Itachi complete his mission and kill his brother. Of course, I can also help you achieve your wish and kill Kakashi!"
"When we attack Konohagakure later, I'll solve your problem for you."
"You don't have to thank me!"
Obito became even angrier, staring intently at An, and warned him menacingly:
"You're not allowed to interfere in my affairs!"
"Don't do anything unnecessary, or else... I'll kill you!"
"Oh my, oh my!" Uchiha An exclaimed in surprise, "I thought you were here to kill me right now!"
"So you have to wait until I've killed Kakashi before you come to kill me!"
"Obito, Obito, you really are a waste!"
"No wonder Rin ultimately chose Kakashi. Even when she died by Kakashi's hand, she still had a smile on her face. After all, she died in the arms of the one she loved most..."
"Shut up!" As expected, as soon as Rin's name was mentioned, Obito could no longer restrain himself. He lunged forward, opening his right hand and pressing it towards Uchiha An.
"Haha... I've been waiting for this moment!" Uchiha An roared with laughter, Susanoo rising from the ground and sweeping out a punch.
The small room was immediately shattered by the giant energy being, and broken stones and rubble rained down, only to be turned to dust by the blood-red chakra energy.
This commotion immediately alerted the surrounding people, and countless eyes were cast from the shadows.
Obito phased out and hid in the alternate dimension, dodging Susanoo's attack. He stood there with his head held high, proudly declaring:
"It's useless!"
"No matter what ninjutsu you use, you can't harm me, and I can patiently wait for your chakra to be depleted."
"You can't hurt me, but I can hurt you."
"You only need one failed defense, and it's all over."
"Is that so?" Uchiha An gave a sinister smile, reached behind him, and took down his medicinal herb gourd. He tilted it towards Obito, and a torrent of Phosphorus Corrosive Insects poured down like a waterfall towards Obito Uchiha.
Obito hadn't even figured out what was happening and was still boasting.
"It's useless!"
"You know this is a space ninjutsu, so no attack can harm me in another dimension."
"The Phosphorus Corrosive Insects can't either!"
"Haha... You idiot!" Uchiha An burst into laughter, mocking him, "Obito, you really are a dead last, your brain is definitely not working properly!"
"Since you know I have your information, you should also know that not only do I know your Kamui ocular jutsu is a space ninjutsu, but I also know that its maximum duration is five minutes!"
"Now, I've covered you with poisonous insects. I'll ask you, do you dare to come out of the Kamui dimension?"
"But it's a shame you're not stupid enough to use Kamui to absorb the Phosphorus Corrosive Insects into the Kamui dimension, otherwise, that would have been perfect for me!"
"I originally planned to have the Phosphorus Corrosive Insects make a nest in your Kamui dimension and settle down right there, but alas, alas!"
