Unexpected People

"What's the point of saying all this? Everything has already been settled. The winner takes all, and the loser is condemned. You possess a more advanced Rinnegan than I do, so my loss is perfectly normal."

At this moment, Nagato accepted the reality of his defeat, but he still attributed it to his own Dōjutsu.

Shiyu shook his head and said, "It has nothing to do with eyes. Even without the Rinnegan, I could defeat you in your prime."

Shiyu was extremely confident; his strength was already at the pinnacle of the Shinobi World.

"It's too late. That woman will definitely have her Tailed Beast extracted. Once Nine Tailed Beasts are gathered, no matter how strong you are, you will still be defeated by Akatsuki," Nagato said firmly.

"That's absolutely impossible, because the Three-Tails is inside me," Shiyu said. "Who in the entire Shinobi World is my match?"

Before Nagato could refute Shiyu, at that moment, Shiyu saw spatial fluctuations accompanied by a vortex appear before his eyes. It was clear that Obito and Zetsu had brought out the already dead Kushina.

"This woman is useless now, here you go." Obito tossed Kushina's body to Shiyu, Shiyu naturally caught it.

However, at that moment, Obito, wearing a mask, immediately slammed his hand down and shouted, "Summoning Technique!"

What followed was a scene that shocked both Nagato and Shiyu.

A tall coffin slowly rose, accompanied by a cloud of smoke and dust.

Finally, with a loud "bang," the coffin lid was opened.

"This is!?" Shiyu was shocked. Before her was an old corpse, and although the corpse had white hair, it still had a certain domineering presence.

Although it was difficult to discern, Shiyu still managed to guess the identity of the person in front of her.

"Madara Uchiha? Obito, it seems you're no longer going to hide yourself!" Shiyu said to Obito, who was wearing a mask.

"No, Madara Uchiha represents not just a name, but the same will as him." Obito maintained his cold, mysterious, and dark demeanor, as if he had everything under control.

Obito, Madara, and Nagato also widened their eyes, seemingly realizing they had been deceived.

"What!?" Nagato suddenly realized that he could no longer move his body; something black seemed to have Nagato into his body.

"Black Zetsu?"

Unbeknownst to them, Black Zetsu had quietly approached Nagato and taken over Nagato body.

"What do you want to do? Zetsu, you're a member of Akatsuki Organization," Nagato asked.

"That's right, we are all members of Akatsuki Organization, but Akatsuki Organization serves Madara," Zetsu said sinisterly.

"Madara?!" Nagato was still somewhat confused.

"You're such a pathetic wretch. Don't you understand now? We just want to use you, to make you our pawn."

"Although you are nominally the leader of Akatsuki, in reality, Madara is the leader of the Akatsuki Organization." Zetsu glanced at Obito.

Shiyu, however, looked disdainful and thought to himself, "At this point, are they still pretending?"

Black Zetsu controlled Nagato's body and made a hand seal. Nagato immediately understood Black Zetsu's purpose.

"Hanzo is a cautious man, and it would be difficult to use him to kill Yahiko, but we still succeeded. You were blinded by hatred, and now we're going to extract your last remaining value. Of course, before that, we have to complete one last thing." Black Zetsu, controlling Nagato's body, said with a wicked smile.

"Shiyu! Please, kill me! Destroy my eyes! Their goal is to resurrect the real Madara!"

"At least, save Konan!" Nagato regretted it now, but it was too late. He shouted and tried his best to resist Black Zetsu his body.

"Konan, although she's a member of Akatsuki Organization, seems to have been misled just like you. Don't worry, I'll spare her life for now," Shiyu said calmly, this was the greatest leniency he could offer.

"Although I'm no match for you, I can at least hold you off for a bit." Obito appeared in front of Shiyu.

Shiyu laughed dismissively, "Ha, you? I'm too lazy to even fight you."

"Yomotsu Hirasaka!" Shiyu waved his hand, and a black cavity appeared. Shiyu opened a spatial passage and then temporarily put Kushina and Konan into it.

"Space-Time Ninjutsu?! When did he pick up Konan?! Could this be a power of his Mangekyō Sharingan?" Obito was clever and guessed some of Shiyu's abilities, showing some surprise.

"Ha! Whatever you want to do, it's too late now! Heretical Rinne Rebirth!"

Black Zetsu had completely taken control of Nagato's body and used the Outer Path - Samsara Heavenly Life Technique to control Nagato's body. Nagato's head, resembling the King of Hell, reappeared, and then opened its mouth. A soul emitting a strong green light rushed towards Madara Uchiha in front of it.

"Whoosh!" In the end, his soul merged with Madara Uchiha's body.

"Is he finally coming out? Madara Uchiha?" Shiyu stepped out of the Protostar Space opened by Yomotsu Hirasaka, a hint of anticipation in his eyes.

"Obito, Zetsu, what urgent purpose do you have in hastily controlling Nagato to revive Madara Uchiha? The Tailed Beast haven't been fully gathered yet." Shiyu crossed his arms and bluntly revealed Obito and Zetsu's true intentions.

"Hey! I know you seem to know a lot, and I admit we're no match for you, but Madara, let's see if you can handle it!" Zetsu seemed extremely confident in Madara Uchiha's strength.

"I'm afraid you'll be disappointed." Shiyu sneered, showing not a trace of fear.

At this moment, Madara Uchiha slowly walked out of the coffin, smelled the air, and took a deep breath.

Black Zetsu controlled Nagato and not only revived Madara using the Outer Path - Samsara Heavenly Life Technique, but also restored Madara to his full youth, placing him at his peak condition.

"Something feels off. Obito, Zetsu, is that you? And the other person is Nagato? And there's another person who seems to be from the Uchiha Clan." Madara slowly walked out, seemingly enjoying the speculation.

"I don't quite understand the current situation, but I find it quite interesting." Madara smiled faintly, a hint of amusement in his expression, a confidence that everyone knew belonged to an absolute powerhouse looking down upon all others.

"Lord Madara, due to certain circumstances, we have to revive you ahead of schedule. The person before you is that Uchiha Clan brat from before," Black Zetsu said, still possessing Nagato's body.

"Oh?" Madara seemed to possess a certain level of perception as well. After a few seconds of silence, he said, "His chakra is unusually strong. What's going on? Is he Jinchuriki?"

"After all this time, haven't you finished collecting the Tailed Beast yet, Obito? What went wrong with the plan?" Madara questioned.
