"He now has four Tailed Beasts in his hands. Adding the Nine-Tailss in his body makes five Tailed Beasts. It saves us time in searching for Tailed Beasts."
Black Zetsu After listening, an imperceptible fluctuation flashed in his eyes.
Just as the two were about to leave, Madara Uchiha stopped and turned around to look at Kabuto Yakushi, who had been standing quietly in the corner of the cave.
"Kabuto Yakushi, right."
Kabuto Yakushi was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Madara Uchiha glanced around Kabuto Yakushi and slowly said, "You are too weak. Even if you master a forbidden technique of Impure World Reincarnation's level, it cannot cover up your own lack of strength."
"If you want to be my Madara Uchiha ally, I won't accept it if you don't have enough strength."
Kabuto Yakushi's face froze.
He pushed up his glasses and raised a meaningful arc at the corner of his mouth:
"You are really underestimated!"
"I specialize in collecting the body tissues of past generations. I have done everything that Lord Orochimaru couldn't do."
"Your current body was summoned using my improved Impure World Reincarnation. Without my technique, you would still be lying in that Coffin."
Before he finished speaking, he formed a seal with one hand to control Impure World Reincarnation, hoping to forcefully suppress Madara Uchiha and make it recognize who is the real master.
However, Madara Uchiha moved faster than him, and a complex set of interpretations was completed while his hands were flying.
"Impure World Reincarnation, solution!"
In an instant, Kabuto discovered to his horror that the Impure World Reincarnation contract between him and Madara Uchiha had expired.
"Impure World Reincarnation is Summoning Technique specially used to summon the dead, but this technique has a fatal weakness."
"As long as the summoned deceased knows the Hand Seals way to cancel the contract, he can actively cut off the Summoning Contract between him and the caster and become a free Reanimated Body that is not controlled by anyone."
"You rely too much on this forbidden technique."
Madara Uchiha took back Hand Seals's hands and looked at Kabuto condescendingly:
"Remember, never abuse forbidden techniques."
"For the sake of you resurrecting me, I won't kill you."
"But I won't be so polite next time we meet."
After saying that, Madara Uchiha turned around and walked out of the cave. Black Zetsu glanced at Kabuto Yakushi, then followed Madara and disappeared into the depths of the cave.
Kabuto Yakushi stood alone in the empty cave, Madara Uchiha's words "You are too weak" echoed repeatedly in his mind.
He remembered what Orochimaru once said to him, and how he had struggled for so many years in this Shinobi World, where the jungle was strong and the strong preyed on the weak, but he had always stood in the shadow of the strong and looked up to others.
Kabuto Yakushi pushed up his glasses and looked into the endless darkness deep in the cave, as if saying goodbye to his past self.
Maybe it's time to go to Ryūchi Cave.

After Naruto and Orochimaru left the territory of Land of Earth, they headed east and soon came to a huge lake that could not be seen to the edge.
The lake surface is sparkling under the midday sun. If it weren't for the vaguely visible lake shoreline in the distance, from an ordinary person's perspective, there would be no difference between this large lake and the sea.
"This is the junction of Grass Country and Amegakure."
Orochimaru saw that Naruto was interested in this lake, so he took the initiative to explain:
"Amegakure It rains all year round, and the rainwater is collected here through the dense drainage system in the village."
"After years of accumulation, this Shinobi World's largest inland lake has been formed."
"This lake is located at the junction of Grass Country and Amegakure. No Ninja Village has complete jurisdiction over it."
"Hozuki Castle Prison is in the center of this lake, right?"
Orochimaru nodded.
"Hozuki Castle is a special prison established and managed by Kusagakure jointly entrusted by Five Great Nations to detain felon ninjas wanted by various countries."
"The warden Mui is Elite Jōnin, the former Kusagakure. He masters the Fire Release Sky Prison Technique, which can impose a special kind of imprisonment Formula on the prisoners. Once they leave the prison, they will automatically burn."
"So there is almost no possibility of escape for the ninjas imprisoned in Hozuki Castle."
"Why, Naruto-kun is interested in this prison?"
"I have no interest in this prison, but I am a little curious about something inside."
After Naruto finished speaking, he stepped onto the lake and walked toward the center of the lake.
Orochimaru's eyes lit up slightly when he heard this, and he quickly followed Naruto's pace.
The two stepped on the lake and walked towards the center of the lake.
Soon, an island fortress slowly appeared on the horizon in the distance. As the distance got closer, the outline of the fortress became clearer and clearer.
This is a huge building with a watchtower on each corner. The towering walls completely isolate the entire prison from the outside world.
"Ahead is Hozuki Castle Prison."
"Hozuki Castle The water around it is full of water flow Uzumaki. Any ships approaching will be sucked to the bottom."
"If we continue walking past like this, we will soon be exposed to their perception Barrier."
Orochimaru stopped.
Naruto nodded and took out a Flying Raijin Kunai from the ninja bag.
He closed his eyes and probed Mind's Eye of the Kagura's perception into Hozuki Castle.
After a while, he locked his eyes on a small garden deep in Hozuki Castle that was not patrolled by guards.
Naruto Aim Flying Raijin Kunai in that direction and activate Heavenly Transfer Technique.
Kunai instantly turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the air, shooting towards the inside of Hozuki Castle and accurately nailing it into the soil in the back garden of the castle.
Naruto reached out and patted Orochimaru on the back.
"Let's go."
Flying Thunder God was activated, and the two figures disappeared from the lake in the next second.
Following a burst of space fluctuations, Naruto and Orochimaru appeared in the back garden.
Naruto picked up Flying Raijin Kunai, and at the same time activated Mind's Eye of the Kagura to completely cover up its own Chakra fluctuations.
Orochimaru also used his concealment method to hide his aura.
The two walked silently through the deserted corridor and arrived at a high place in the Central Tower building of the prison.
Through a thick iron-barred window, you can overlook the entire prisoner activity area of Hozuki Castle.
Naruto looked past the prisoners and locked onto the man with a majestic face standing in the center of the gathering place.
Hozuki Castle The city lord of prison, Mui.
Time passed bit by bit, and the sky gradually darkened.
The prisoners lined up and returned to their cells under the scolding of the jailer. The iron bars fell one after another, and the sound of collision echoed in the corridor.
Mui walked back to the office alone after a day of inspections. The moment he closed the door, the mask he had maintained all day completely collapsed.
What replaced it was pain and deep self-blame.
He walked to his desk, slumped down in the chair, and took out a photo frame from the depths of the drawer. In the photo, a little boy was smiling brightly at the camera.
"Mui City Lord, first meeting."
At this moment, a calm voice sounded in the office without warning.
Mui's pupils suddenly shrank, and his body instinctively jumped up from the chair.
But as soon as his fingers touched Kunai around his waist, several golden chains shot out from the darkness, binding him tightly from shoulders to feet.
The pressure of the seal from the chain caused all the Chakra in his body to solidify in an instant, and he could not even move a finger.
Mui mobilized Chakra to try to break free, but the power of the seal on the chain pierced into his meridian system like countless fine needles, locking Chakra in his body.
"Is this the blood extension limit Adamantine Sealing Chains of Uzumaki clan?"
"Are you Nine-Tails Jinchuriki Naruto Uzumaki?"
