Although Mei Terumi had formed an idea, she did not leave to act on it. Instead, she carried on chatting with Uchiha Shunichi as though nothing had happened, talking about meaningless things.
According to the village's intelligence on Uchiha Shunichi, this young man was extremely powerful—already comparable to Uchiha Madara in his prime, or perhaps even... Hashirama Senju.
Although the widely circulated account in the Shinobi World claimed that their final battle had ended in a draw, nearly everyone believed Hashirama Senju had been stronger than Uchiha Madara.
Faced with such a powerful man, Mei Terumi naturally had some particular thoughts. Both as a woman and as the Mizukage...
However, Mei Terumi did not act immediately. She discussed the Three-Tails with Uchiha Shunichi in a perfectly normal manner instead.
Uchiha Shunichi noticed something unusual about Mei Terumi.
But he did not take it to heart. Back when he watched anime in his previous life, he had not been sensitive to the ages of female characters, but in reality, Mei Terumi was far older than him.
"Karin, is there any way to interrogate that White Zetsu?" After returning to the Konoha ninja camp, Uchiha Shunichi went to ask Karin first.
Uchiha Shunichi had not stored away all the White Zetsu he had captured. He had left one with Karin and asked her to use Sealing Jutsu to try sealing the ability that prevented White Zetsu from telling the truth.
For a goofball like White Zetsu, as long as there were real restraints, interrogation was practically unnecessary to obtain the relevant intelligence.
"No. Their minds are extremely abnormal. They're no longer human. I can't sense the presence of souls in their bodies, but there seems to be something similar."
"They're a bit like... puppets that can be freely controlled."
