Two days ago, Ren made Nagato face reality and went into hiding again.
Black Zetsu went to confront him, but was easily dismissed by Ren.
After separating, Black Zetsu discovered that he had been providing assistance to Ren since they started working together.
Whether it's Hiruzen Sarutobi and Itachi, or Kakuzu and Sasori.
Ren didn't give anything in return; he just made a bunch of demands by not causing trouble.
When retrieving the Tailed Beast, Ren will need to take a small portion of their Tailed Beast Chakra.
Black Zetsu needs to cover for Nagato and Obito again.
Now it's even worse; for a ridiculous reason, they're going to delay the Tailed Beast capture plan by one to five years!
If you give unconditionally without receiving anything in return, even the most devoted admirer will start to have other thoughts, let alone Black Zetsu, who is not an admirer at all.
Ren's greatest strength lies in his own power, which allows him to easily kill Tailed Beast and thwart the plan.
Black Zetsu, however, had no means to restrain Ren, and the two were unequal in their cooperation from the very beginning.
Just when hope was within reach, it was cut short by Ren himself.
Faced with Ren's increasingly audacious behavior, Black Zetsu could no longer tolerate it and decided to stop.
Knowing that Ren was not without weaknesses, Black Zetsu found Obito that very night.
"Madara, when Nagato was planning to implement his plan to capture the Tailed Beast, Uchiha Yushu came to thwart it, and now Nagato has retreated back to Amegakure!"
Nagato, Obito, and Black Zetsu may have different intentions, but they all share the same goal: to collect the Tailed Beast.
Obito, who knew nothing at all, immediately became serious.
"Black Zetsu, tell me more!"
Black Zetsu then described the battle process that White Zetsu had observed.
"Although we dared not get too close, we were certain that Nagato used Chibaku Tensei, but even so, he still failed!"
Obito, who also possessed information about the Rinnegan, knew that Nagato Rinnegan to its limit when he learned that Nagato had used Chibaku Tensei.
"But how did Uchiha Yushu learn about Nagato's actions?"
"It must be Hiruzen Sarutobi and Itachi Uchiha. White Zetsu has lost track of them many times!"
When faced with Obito's questions, Black Zetsu betrayed Hiruzen Sarutobi and Itachi.
Obito, who desperately wanted to create a world with Rin, could only rage in vain upon hearing this news.
At this point, Obito was even willing to revive Madara and relinquish control of the plan.
But Obito knew this was impossible; Nagato and he were not on the same page, and Nagato was destined not to revive Madara.
In fact, Black Zetsu could. Nagato, who had developed the Rinnegan to such an extent, could already be forcibly possessed and controlled by Black Zetsu.
However, Black Zetsu couldn't get close to Nagato and could only rely on Obito for a chance, but Black Zetsu wouldn't show his abilities in front of Obito.
Obito by Black Zetsu, Nagato wanted to tell Nagato about Hiruzen Sarutobi and Itachi, so that they could work together to kill the two scourges.
The idea was immediately rejected by Black Zetsu.
"Madara, killing those two will only make Uchiha Yushu more cautious; the problem isn't with those two spies, but with Uchiha Yushu himself!"
"I know, but we have no way to deal with Uchiha Yushu."
Seeing this, Black Zetsu quickly sighed along with Obito, but then his eyes lit up and he said.
"There might be a way to deal with Uchiha Yushu, but I'm not sure if it will actually work!"
Black Zetsu used a lot of vague words like guesses, maybes, and perhaps to describe how much Ren valued Natsuri.
The implication is that they could take Uchiha Natsuri and then threaten Uchiha Yushu.
Desperate, Obito and Black Zetsu started plotting together.
The conclusion drawn was that it would be difficult to succeed with only Obito and Zetsu; they would need more help.
The next day, Obito went to see Nagato alone, hoping to persuade Nagato to join forces and act together.
The result was obvious: Nagato rejected Obito.
Nagato knew he wasn't a good person, but compared to a madman like Obito, he was still a normal person.
Cast Genjutsu on everyone?
Nagato scoffed, "That's not what peace should look like!"
Nagato, who was Obito by Nagato, learned today that Iwagakure has designs on Konoha.
What's this called?
When you feel sleepy, someone brings you a pillow!
So, when Black Zetsu and Ōnoki's negotiations broke down, Obito couldn't help but step in.
Spiral spatial ripples, but only visible to the naked eye; Obito possessed no aura whatsoever, as if he were an illusory being.
This bizarre entrance was what stunned Ōnoki.
In fact, not only Ōnoki was stunned, but Black Zetsu was as well.
I haven't even called you, why did you come out on your own!
You don't actually think the Tsuchikage wants to leave, do you?
Black Zetsu then thought of Obito always only had Rin's brain, and his already dark face seemed to become even darker!
This is negotiation! These are the negotiation techniques that you hypocritical humans believe in!
If you don't understand, just listen carefully!
Obito, you idiot!
What's done is done, what could Black Zetsu do? He could only respectfully step back two steps like a little brother, stand behind Obito, and bow his head.
He told Ōnoki, "This is the important person I was talking about."
"And who are you?"
Faced with Obito, who was shrouded in mystery, Ōnoki had even prepared his Dust Release. If anything seemed amiss, he would immediately unleash a Dust Release on the two of them and then make a hasty escape.
Obito, who thought he made a cool entrance, slightly turned his head, revealing the blood-red Sharingan behind his mask, and spoke in a cold tone.
"My name is Madara Uchiha!"
