Eavesdropping? Kanami's setup?

"It seems that choosing Obito as a pawn was both a very wise and a very foolish choice."

Madara Uchiha couldn't help but comment.

The statements that seem contradictory are actually not contradictory upon careful analysis.

The wise thing is that Obito Uchiha was a problem child, easy to trust and easy to control.

The folly lies in the fact that Obito Uchiha such a problematic child that it made it seem highly questionable that he was made Madara Uchiha's will in the Shinobi World.

This is also why Nagato and Konan never believed he was Madara Uchiha from the beginning.

"Mm," Kanami nodded.

Madara Uchiha:?

"Hmm? What do you mean by 'hmm'? What comes next?"

"What comes after what?"

Madara Uchiha frowned. "What are you trying to do by saying that? You haven't even answered me yet."

Kanami scratched his head. "Haha, I thought I could get away with it. You're the first person I've met who wasn't swayed by my attempts to change the subject."

"Hmph, what exactly is your purpose? You couldn't possibly just be trying to belittle Obito in front of me, could you?"

Madara Uchiha his arms.

Kanami: "Then let's go back to the topic of our previous collaboration."

"Black Zetsu, what you call your will, is it really your will?"

What!

Madara Uchiha's expression changed drastically. "You even said Black Zetsu is the embodiment of my will... That's right, you killed Obito, it's normal that you know about this."

He glanced warily at Kanami's right eye, at the Illusion Technique that Mangekyō Sharingan had used on him earlier, which he could clearly sense was an attempt to forcibly change his will.

Fortunately, he possessed the Rinnegan and had a very strong will, which allowed him to break through Kanami's Illusion Technique.

It looks easy, but in reality, no one else could solve it.

After all, this is Kotoamatsukami, which even Otsutsuki Toneri could control.

"No, I mean, Black Zetsu isn't the embodiment of your will; rather, he's impersonating your will to deceive you."

"Impossible, you're joking, you're just making me doubt myself."

"After all that talk, you were just trying to mislead me and make me believe what you said," Madara Uchiha sneered. "Do you think I don't know whether he was born from my will?"

"Black Zetsu is myself. He is the will that automatically arose after I Rinnegan and mastered Yin-Yang Release. He can only be my will."

Kanami looked calmly at Madara Uchiha: "No, you're too confident, Madara Uchiha."

"He is not the embodiment of your will; he is a being from a higher dimension."

As he spoke, a gleaming Rasengan materialized in Kanami's hand.

Madara Uchiha slightly. "Distract me, then ambush me? You've forgotten I'm Impure World Reincarnation..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Kanami's lips curl slightly and he vanished from his sight in an instant.

"Rasengan!"

He aimed at a spot on the ground dozens of meters away and instantly unleashed a Rasengan!

Not good!

"Damn it, how did he even discover my Mayfly Technique?!"

Black Zetsu instantly transformed into a black streak and rapidly slid down towards the ground.

The Rasengan instantly blasted a large crater in the spot where he had just been standing.

Madara Uchiha frowned slightly and approached Kanami. "What are you doing? Why did you suddenly use Ninjutsu here?"

He didn't quite understand the meaning behind Kanami's sudden action.

Could it be that someone was eavesdropping on our conversation?

"You're right," Kanami nodded, patting himself to brush off the dust. "Guess who that person was?"

Kanami asked with a smile.

Madara Uchiha frowned even more deeply when he saw him like this.

"How could I possibly guess? Without giving a range of possibilities, anyone could come up."

"Then I'll give you a range: people you know."

"I know him..." Madara Uchiha hesitated for half a second before speaking, "The White Snake man who just left."

He's the only one most likely to leave something behind to eavesdrop on their conversation.

Besides, no one else he knew knew that he had been resurrected through the Impure World Reincarnation technique, so he was certain that it was none other than himself.

"Haha, unfortunately, it's not."

Kanami smiled. "You can't guess it, and even if you did, you still wouldn't be able to."

Madara Uchiha quickly understood the profound meaning behind those words.

Black Zetsu.

He was talking about Black Zetsu.

He knew that Black Zetsu was someone he had thought of, but no one would guess.

At this moment, Black Zetsu had already used his Mayfly Technique to escape three or four miles away.

He was mainly too scared. Once is never enough, and he wasn't sure if he would actually get hit by the Rasengan a third time!

He is very fragile, only slightly stronger than White Zetsu, and could be easily killed.

This is the main reason why, even though he possesses Wood Release Ninjutsu, he rarely uses it and instead acts as an intelligence agent for Akatsuki Organization from the rear.

Madara Uchiha looked down at Kanami, "You're right, I couldn't have guessed it."

Kanami smiled; he knew that Madara Uchiha had already thought of Black Zetsu.

"Let's assume first, if he really is Black Zetsu, the embodiment of your will, then why didn't you sense his location when he appeared here, even though you share the same origin?"

"Therefore, it can't be Black Zetsu," Madara Uchiha without even thinking, firmly believing in his own idea.

Thinking leads to suspicion, and suspicion leads to problems.

Once suspicion arises, the charge is essentially established.

This statement is not without merit.

"Wait, how did you sense Black Zetsu's presence?"

Madara Uchiha suddenly thought of this pointed question.

"You're setting me up, trying to mislead me. There was no one attacking me here at all."

He quickly recalled a scene from Kanami's confident smile when he condensed the Rasengan.

It was all a scheme orchestrated by Kanami.

Kanami pointed to his head, "Red hair, Uzumaki Clan, super strong Chakra and the Mind's Eye of the Kagura attached to his super strong bloodline, super strong perception, plus some special physique that I can't tell you about, so Black Zetsu's concealed aura is just a slightly dimmer Chakra in my eyes, and I can still detect it if I look closely."

If he hadn't activated Mind's Eye of the Kagura earlier, he might not have been able to find Black Zetsu's location, or it would have taken him much longer to confirm that it was Black Zetsu.

Madara Uchiha frowned at Kanami's answer.

He could choose to believe it or not, because what the other party said was generally without flaws.

After a while.

Madara Uchiha spoke up, "Continue, go on with your purpose. Let's skip the question of Black Zetsu is an embodiment of my will for now."

Kanami smiled. "Of course we can skip that, but the next topic is still related to Black Zetsu."

"This topic could overturn the path you've believed in for so many years. Are you sure you want to hear it?"

Madara Uchiha, saying, "You tell me, I will judge for myself."
