After Touring the Base, He Discovered Madara Was Trying to Poison His Son
Afterwards, Tianqi returned to his original form. Tianqi also marveled at how useful White Zetsu's copying skill was. Not only could it copy appearances, but it could also copy Chakra and Ninjutsu. Although it could not copy the Rinnegan, it could copy a typical Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
This skill is truly impressive. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, White Zetsu used this technique to hold off the Allied Shinobi Forces. If it weren't for Naruto's Nine-Tails Mode, the White Zetsu army would probably have won.
After returning to his original form, White Zetsu led Tianqi on a tour of the base. Soon, he brought Tianqi to a small room. "This is where Lord Madara keeps his weapons and Ninjutsu scrolls."
Tianqi glanced at the various weapons hanging on the wall and then flipped through the ninjutsu scrolls on display. He rolled his eyes. "No wonder the Uchiha clan in Konoha doesn't have any decent weapons or ninjutsu. It turns out he brought all the powerful ones here."
"Huh? Didn't Lord Madara say that when he left Konoha, he left you a lot of Ninjutsu and money at home?" White Zetsu looked at Tianqi with a puzzled expression.
"Leave me what?! I was too young to leave anything behind back then. That bastard Tobirama Senju took all my Ninjutsu and Tobirama Senju. He only left me a little bit of the Three Body Techniques and living expenses." Seeing White Zetsu say this, Tianqi rolled his eyes at him again.
"Is that so? Tobirama Senju is really shameless. How could he steal what Lord Madara left you? He's so shameless!" Upon hearing that Tobirama Senju had stolen Madara's things, White Zetsu immediately cursed him.
Seeing White Zetsu's state, Tianqi rolled his eyes at him again. "Damn it, Madara has defected and attacked Konoha. If he doesn't plunder your stuff, who will he plunder? If it weren't for Hashirama Senju, Madara's best friend, I'd probably be dead on the spot. How dare you insult others? Defecting without taking your own son with you, you should really reflect on yourself."
"Stop cursing here. These trivial matters are in the past and there's nothing to worry about. Let's take you to see other places instead," Tianqi said, walking out of the stone chamber where weapons and Ninjutsu were kept and onto the outer corridor. White Zetsu followed him out.
After walking for a while, Tianqi was amazed by the sheer size of the underground base. "I didn't expect it to be so big. Did they hollow out the surrounding land? How did you manage to build such a huge place? Judging from his condition, I doubt he even built it."
In response to Tianqi's question, White Zetsu explained, "Oh, you mean this? When I was first born, this place was actually quite small. Later, after we White Zetsu Clone, we expanded this place, and that's how it looks now."
Tianqi nodded in agreement. It was similar to what he had thought. Given Madara's personality and state of mind, he probably wouldn't spend time on construction. His mind was likely focused on the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan.
The two continued their stroll, eventually arriving at a Taiseki gate Hashirama Senju. Looking at the gate Tianqi asked White Zetsu in confusion, "Where is this?"
"Oh, you mean this place? This is where our White Zetsu Clone are. How about we go in and take a look at our White Zetsu Clone army?" White Zetsu didn't hold back at all; instead, he asked Tianqi if he wanted to go in.
"Okay, let's take a look then," Tianqi replied without hesitation, as he genuinely wanted to see how many White Zetsu there were now.
Seeing that Tianqi wanted to see, White Zetsu pressed a hidden switch next to him, and the Taiseki Hashirama Senju opened directly, revealing a dense crowd of White Zetsu. White Zetsu immediately started showing off, "How about it, aren't you shocked by so many people?"
Seeing so many White Zetsu, Tianqi was somewhat surprised, but he quickly frowned. "I remember the White Zetsu army should have 100,000," he thought. "There are many White Zetsu here, but at most only a thousand, not 100,000. What's going on?"
After thinking for a while, Tianqi relaxed his brow and slapped his head. "Oh dear, I'm such a dense idiot! Obito only created 100,000 White Zetsu Obito after obtaining the seven Tailed Beasts. The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path's Chakra is simply not enough to create so many White Zetsu. How come I didn't even think of that for a moment? It seems I've been in the ninja world for too long, and my memory has deteriorated."
"Let's go, there's nothing to see here." Not seeing tens of thousands of White Zetsu, Tianqi instantly lost interest and turned to leave.
"Hey, hey, hey, what do you mean there's nothing to see? This is an army of thousands! Wait for me!" White Zetsu hurriedly pressed the switch, closed the stone door, and quickly followed Tianqi.
After catching up with Tianqi, White Zetsu asked in confusion, "Tianqi, why do you seem uninterested in these thousand-man troops?"
"Hehe, if you've ever faced Allied Shinobi Forces of over 100,000, you wouldn't be interested in this thousand-man squad either," Tianqi chuckled, casually remarking before continuing on his way back. To be honest, there wasn't much to see here.
"Oh dear, how could I forget that this is a ruthless man who has faced the Shinobi World Allied Shinobi Forces? Why would he care about a thousand or so people? If his true form came, these thousand people probably wouldn't even be enough to warm him up. I was so careless," White Zetsu slapped his forehead and continued to follow Tianqi.
"It's almost time, let's go back quickly. I guess Lord Madara and the others have prepared food for you." After they had finished sightseeing, White Zetsu led Tianqi towards where Madara was.
"Them? Did they kidnap the cook to prepare food for me? No way, he's so kind." For some reason, Tianqi had a strange feeling in his heart; he felt that something bad was about to happen.
White Zetsu quickly brought Tianqi back to the location where he had just arrived at the base. Madara, who was connected to the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, couldn't go too far. If he hadn't been connected to the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path probably wouldn't have survived for more than two minutes.
"Sit down," Madara said indifferently, pointing to the stone bench in front of White Zetsu he returned with his son.
Tianqi sat on the stone bench, looking at the dishes on the table that looked decent. He was suddenly a little suspicious. Could it be that I was wrong and he really meant so much good? But my bad feeling still hadn't gone away. Could he have poisoned the food? The more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed. That damned Ban really is a leopard that can't change its spots. He doesn't even spare his own son. I'll see what tricks he can pull today! He immediately said with a gloomy face, "Come on! Eat one and show me."
Seeing Tianqi's sudden change in expression and tone, Ban was at a loss. He had kindly asked someone to prepare food for him, but Tianqi seemed ungrateful. Had White Zetsu said something bad about him? He immediately looked at White Zetsu, who was showing Tianqi around.
