sensible!
Uchiha Nan smiled and then said:
" Otōto, since you've taken the initiative to ask, I'll accept it."
With these White Zetsu, my chances of rescuing my mother have increased a little more.
Uchiha Nan skillfully employed his "pie-in-the-sky" technique—painting a grand promise to Black Zetsu, hoping to make his own greed more palatable.
Did I take in your White Zetsu for my own sake?
no!
That was for your important task, Black Zetsu —to rescue Kaguya Otsutsuki!
"Brother, I understand!"
"If we brothers work together, we will surely be able to rescue Mother!" Black Zetsu nodded and said.
As long as my elder brother can rescue Mother, I'll do anything!
"It's good that you understand. To save Mother, we must spare no effort!"
Uchiha Nan uttered flowery words.
Only by using the pretext of saving Kaguya Otsutsuki can Black Zetsu be made to work wholeheartedly for him.
Black Zetsu's intelligence-gathering ability is in no way inferior to that of Konoha, and he still has too many unknown secrets in the Ninja world in his mind. We need to extract value from Black Zetsu little by little.
"I will unify the Ninja world Ninja world, and then gather all its power to save Mother!"
" Otōto, since you excel at intelligence gathering, I will arrange for Konoha's intelligence department to cooperate with you."
Uchiha Nan entrusted the task of gathering information about the Ninja world to Black Zetsu, Black Zetsu nodded in agreement without hesitation.
His elder brother is now the Hokage of Konoha, possessing immense power; capturing the Tailed Beast will be a piece of cake for him in the future.
I only regret that my martial prowess is insufficient, and I can only offer my meager assistance to my elder brother.
Full of enthusiasm, Black Zetsu couldn't wait to get to work, while Uchiha Nan looked at Black Zetsu with great satisfaction.
What an excellent source of labor!
Black Zetsu, carrying a handwritten order from Uchiha Nan, went to report to Uchiha Tomita, where he was specifically responsible for intelligence gathering for the Anbu.
Members of Konoha's Anbu, as well as spies and secret agents lurking throughout the Ninja world, all had to cooperate with Black Zetsu's intelligence work.
Meanwhile, Black Zetsu possesses an independent intelligence organization ( White Zetsu ), which is not subject to the control of Uchiha Tomita and is directly responsible to the Hokage.
Uchiha Nan even gave Black Zetsu a nice-sounding codename—"Agarwood".
"You're just going to let Black Zetsu go like that?"
Tobirama Senju watched Black Zetsu's departing figure, his tone tinged with worry.
"Otherwise, Black Zetsu's intelligence network is spread all over the Ninja world. It would be a waste not to bring it under Konoha's control!"
It's important to know that the White Zetsu under Black Zetsu are engaged in espionage activities, and Konoha doesn't even need to provide them with operating funds.
They are purely motivated by love and are self-reliant!
Uchiha Nan loves this kind of employee!
"Hmph, that really suits your personality!"
Tobirama Senju glanced at Uchiha Nan with disdain. He was always scheming, using nice-sounding names to squeeze the surplus value out of his employees.
Now it's gotten even worse; they're unwilling to give even a little bit of funding for activities.
I'm starting to get it for free!!
Beast!
"Was everything you said to Black Zetsu tonight true?"
Who exactly is Black Zetsu's mother?
Why were they sealed on the moon?
Tobirama Senju inwardly berated Uchiha Nan Uchiha Nan, then, like a curious child, bombarded him with a series of questions.
The conversation between Uchiha Nan and Black Zetsu tonight revealed a wealth of information.
Tobirama Senju the gossip he was getting.
The reason why the Sage of Six Paths sealed his mother is unknown.
Black Zetsu infiltrated the Ninja world for a thousand years, stirring up trouble between the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths and interfering in the thousand-year feud between the Senju Clan and Uchiha, all in an effort to save his mother.
Was Uchiha Nan's goal in unifying the Ninja world also to save his mother?
When did this Ninja world become so absurd?!
"Of course it's all true!"
"Are you really the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths?"
"Real!"
Look me in the eye when you speak!
"I'm watching!"
Uchiha Nan looked at Tobirama Senju with sincere eyes.
After a quick glance, Tobirama Senju realized that Uchiha Nan was lying.
But Tobirama Senju had no evidence!
"So you really want to rescue Black Zetsu's mother?"
It's true.
Uchiha Nan nodded; he would indeed rescue Kaguya Otsutsuki.
Of course, this comes with certain conditions.
Uchiha Nan would only consider releasing Kaguya Otsutsuki from her seal when his own strength was comparable to Kaguya Otsutsuki's.
"Watch me"
"Stop looking, I swear it's true."
Uchiha Nan waved his hand, directly interrupting Tobirama Senju.
"Oh~ then that sentence above is false!"
Tobirama Senju's face revealed a cunning smile.
He knew that Uchiha Nan, that naturally evil Uchiha brat, was up to no good!
He's spouting nothing but lies!
That idiot Black Zetsu actually believed Uchiha Nan's nonsense.
"Tch, believe it or not!"
"If I weren't the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths, how would I know so many secrets of the Ninja world?"
Hmm. That makes sense too.
Tobirama Senju suddenly lost confidence again.
" Tobirama, are you really that unwilling to accept the fact that I am your ancestor?"
You Filial Son!
"Go to hell!!"
"With your character, you absolutely cannot be the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths."
Tobirama Senju didn't bother arguing with Uchiha Nan about this issue; he simply refused to believe that Uchiha Nan was the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths.
"Who is Black Zetsu's mother?"
"The legendary Rabbit Goddess, named Kaguya Otsutsuki, descended upon the Ninja world a thousand years ago. She is the true progenitor of Chakra in the Ninja world and gave birth to two sons: one named Hagoromo Otsutsuki, also known as the Sage of Six Paths, and the other named Hagomoro Otsutsuki."
"Later, the Mother and Son and son had different ideas, just like Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju."
The Hagoromo Otsutsuki brothers, Hagomoro Otsutsuki, engaged in a protracted and life-or-death battle with their mother Kaguya Otsutsuki. In the end, the two sons emerged victorious, unleashing a powerful Sealing Jutsu to seal Kaguya Otsutsuki.
The moon we see is a product of their Sealing Jutsu.
" Black Zetsu is a child born to Kaguya Otsutsuki before she was sealed away, so let's just call him a child. He bears the heavy responsibility of saving his mother."
Uchiha Nan is in a good mood today and doesn't mind answering Tobirama Senju's questions.
Tobirama Senju frowned, processing the information given to him by Uchiha Nan.
A difference in values arose between the Mother and Son.
Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, Hagomoro Otsutsuki —their surnames all belong to Otsutsuki Uchiha Nan. It was once mentioned that the Ōtsutsuki Clan would invade the Ninja world Ninja world in the future to seize its hidden treasures.
Tobirama Senju the fragmented information and connected the dots, he seemed to have uncovered the hidden truth about Uchiha Nan.
" Kaguya Otsutsuki and the Ōtsutsuki Clan will invade the Ninja world in the future, they have the same goal, don't they!"
"Perhaps Kaguya Otsutsuki was among the first Otsutsuki to invade the Ninja world."
"You're so clever, Tobirama!"
Uchiha Nan clapped his hands and praised Tobirama Senju.
Tobirama Senju's mind is truly remarkable; he can piece together a vague truth from fragmented information.
"Of course, I am Tobirama Senju!"
I'm currently reading the latest chapters!
A smug look appeared on Tobirama Senju's face.
What else did you guess?
Uchiha Nan couldn't help but become curious.
"You just mentioned that Kaguya Otsutsuki and her two sons had a conflict due to differing ideologies, which eventually escalated into a violent fight, even a life-or-death battle."
They are Mother and Son!
Mother and Son could engage in a life-or-death battle!
This could absolutely not be a simple difference of opinion; there must be enormous interests involved!
Because of her nature, a mother would never intentionally harm her own son, so I believe it was definitely the Hagoromo Otsutsuki brothers, Hagomoro Otsutsuki, who struck first.
Tobirama Senju analyzed with great seriousness that this dark-hearted old man believed only immense benefits could turn Mother and Son against each other, making them see each other as thieves.
Kaguya Otsutsuki, as a mother, inevitably played the role of a pitiful person.
However, upon closer reflection, Kaguya Otsutsuki was indeed a pitiful person; her life was truly tragic!
Kaguya Otsutsuki was born into the Ōtsutsuki Clan. She wasn't particularly strong. She came to the Ninja world with Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, and in the end, she was nothing more than a sacrifice to the God Tree.
The instinct of living beings is to survive. Kaguya Otsutsuki did not want to die, so she seized an opportunity to ambush Ōtsutsuki Isshiki and sacrificed him to the God Tree. Then she ate the God Tree's Chakra Fruit and gained power she had never had before.
However, Kaguya Otsutsuki knew very well that killing Ōtsutsuki Isshiki was merely a temporary fix. The God Tree's cultivation period was very long, Ōtsutsuki Clan might not be able to detect it for the time being. But they were just slow to react; given time, they would eventually come to Earth to investigate, and at that point Kaguya Otsutsuki would not escape death.
Therefore, her act of eating the fruit of the God Tree without authorization made her crime even more serious.
However, Kaguya Otsutsuki had no choice but to follow a path to the bitter end.
Kaguya Otsutsuki could not possibly withstand the power of the Ōtsutsuki Clan on her own, so she used the God Tree to create her own army, the White Zetsu army.
This approach is definitely useless.
But regardless of whether it would work or not, with the mindset of "let's try our luck, "Kaguya Otsutsuki did just that!
In any case, the dead are all local natives. It is an honor for the natives to be able to sacrifice their lives and become materials for creating White Zetsu!
After all, the Ōtsutsuki Clan members are all top-tier social elites who regard those weaker than themselves as nourishment. It is not surprising that Kaguya Otsutsuki has this mentality.
However, Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hagomoro Otsutsuki, these two filial Filial Son, had never experienced the family atmosphere of the Ōtsutsuki Clan and could not accept Kaguya Otsutsuki's disregard for human life and her wanton creation of innocent and weak humans into White Zetsu.
After repeated attempts to persuade him failed, a violent act of filial piety occurred, during which he suppressed and sealed away his own mother.
From Kaguya Otsutsuki's perspective, all she ever wanted was to survive. She killed Ōtsutsuki Isshiki to save her life, ate the Chakra Fruit to protect herself, and created the White Zetsu army to protect herself as well.
She just wanted to live, what could she have done wrong!
Her own clansmen wanted to bully and kill her, and even her own sons wanted to join in the fun!
Then let's fight!
It would have been better to have two pieces of char siu than two of them.
Since her two ignorant sons couldn't help her, Kaguya Otsutsuki had no choice but to kill them and reclaim their Chakra.
Unfortunately, Kaguya Otsutsuki's combat ability was low; her strength relied entirely on numerical values, and she was tragically sealed away and taken offline.
"Okay, please continue."
Uchiha Nan recalled Kaguya Otsutsuki's tragic past and gestured for Tobirama Senju to continue.
He was genuinely curious about what interesting truths Tobirama Senju could possibly conjure up in his mind.
Tobirama Senju accepted that Kaguya Otsutsuki was a victim, and since there was a victim, there would inevitably be a persecutor.
Tobirama Senju glanced at Uchiha Nan, recalling Uchiha Nan's usual behavior and his claim of being the Sage of Six Paths.
" The Mother and Son's falling out must be for a hidden treasure in the Ninja world."
"The mother gave birth to two sons, and as a mother, she certainly hoped to share the treasures of the Ninja world with her sons."
Perhaps the two sons became greedy and dissatisfied, leading them to fight with their mother and commit an act that cannot be forgiven by the world.
If we analyze it this way...
Uchiha Nan could indeed be the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths, sharing the same evil personality and the same wicked behavior!
Tobirama Senju revealed the truth he had pieced together, awaiting Uchiha Nan's reaction.
"Wonderful!!!"
"I guessed right?"
A look of joy appeared on Tobirama Senju's face.
"It's not that they're almost identical, but rather that they're completely off-topic; they haven't gotten it right at all from beginning to end."
Tobirama, if you switched careers to become a screenwriter, you'd definitely be a top-tier elite in the industry!
Uchiha Nan sat up from the sofa and clapped. "As expected of the number one scientist in the Ninja world, his imagination is so rich. He might become a leader in the screenwriting industry if he changed careers!"
"I guessed wrong. Uchiha Nan, why are you clapping so enthusiastically? You even stood up to clap!"
Want to see me make a fool of myself?
Tobirama Senju's face fell, and he said with an embarrassed expression.
"Of course not, Tobirama!"
"I'm simply amazed by your imagination; it's so rich!"
"Uchiha Nan said sarcastically."
"Stop talking nonsense! You just want to see me make a fool of myself. Tell me the truth now, and I'll settle things with you!"
Tobirama Senju Uchiha Nan that his face turned red, but he still patiently spoke in a calm tone.
"Want to know the truth?"
"Then work hard for me!"
"When I'm in a better mood, I'll give you more information, and then you can use your imagination to piece together the whole truth."
Uchiha Nan maintained his riddle-solving style as always!
If you want to know the truth, you need to work hard!
"Go to hell, you born evil Uchiha brat!"
"If you really are the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths, then the Sage of Six Paths certainly wasn't a good person either!"
How could you say that? The Sage of Six Paths is your ancestor!
You wicked, Senju old devil, you've completely forgotten your roots!
After finishing his sentence, Uchiha Nan patted his behind and left, departing from the underground laboratory, leaving Tobirama Senju alone in the laboratory, sulking.
