Hearing Obito Uchiha's words, Uchiha Yansheng could not help but sigh.
Sure enough, Shisui Uchiha's Mangekyo Sharingan ability had still been leaked. Only Shisui Uchiha himself would likely have told anyone about something like that.
As fellow Mangekyo Sharingan users, Obito Uchiha could not possibly have used genjutsu on Shisui.
Black Zetsu... was unlikely as well.
Given Shisui Uchiha's strength, unless he had encountered an ambush or betrayal, he should not have been captured.
In the original story, he had only lost one Mangekyo Sharingan to Izanagi's sneak attack. Even then, he had activated Susanoo and broken out. There was no way he could have been captured without a sound.
As for whom he had told, leading to this outcome, that was hard to predict.
All that could be said was: if you did not court death, you would not die.
"Fine, I give up! Let Shisui die, bye-bye~"
Uchiha Yansheng said casually. The next second, his body turned into a cloud of white mist and vanished, leaving only a stunned Obito Uchiha behind.
"He... just left like that?"
Obito Uchiha spoke helplessly.
At that moment, Black Zetsu suddenly emerged from the ground beside him and slowly said, "He never intended to come in person. That was only a Shadow Clone Technique."
"Obito, it seems you've been played."
As Black Zetsu spoke, the surrounding ground suddenly split open, and swarms of Exploding Flies burst out, beginning a large-scale chain of self-destructions.
When creating the Exploding Flies, Uchiha Yansheng had specifically enhanced their flight speed.
That was how he had been able to wipe out five bodies of Pain in one stroke not long ago.
And now, it kept Obito Uchiha from entering the Kamui Dimension in time, leaving him no choice but to phase through the attacks.
Explosions rang out one after another without pause.
Obito Uchiha maintained his phasing state like this for roughly five minutes.
As for the "white-and-black" Zetsu that had just emerged, it had already been blown into black sludge scattered everywhere.
The White Zetsu within the "white-and-black" Zetsu had long since died in the explosions.
Unfortunately, although Black Zetsu's body had been blasted to pieces, with clumps of mud-like black matter scattered everywhere, they still twitched desperately, as though they could gather back together.
More than five minutes had already passed. Obito Uchiha could no longer endure it and could only use the Three-Tomoe Sharingan Madara Uchiha had left behind to activate Izanagi.
Six minutes later, the explosions stopped, timed perfectly.
But under Izanagi's effect, Obito Uchiha reappeared completely unharmed, while Black Zetsu, which had been blown into piles of sludge, began gradually gathering itself back together.
At that moment, Uchiha Yansheng rushed over from Konoha Village again. Seeing this, he did not hesitate to take out an exquisite sealing scroll and press it toward the ground.
But unfortunately, at the crucial moment, that sludge seemed to have suddenly learned the Nara Clan's bloodline limit, turning into shadows and sinking underground...
No, perhaps the Nara Clan's secret technique had also come from Kaguya Otsutsuki long ago.
"What a pity. Is this thing really Madara Uchiha's will? It's so hard to catch. I really want to study it properly."
Uchiha Yansheng spoke regretfully.
The next instant, an ink-black palm pierced through Uchiha Yansheng's chest, and Black Zetsu appeared behind him.
Bang!
With a burst of smoke, Uchiha Yansheng vanished without a trace, leaving only Black Zetsu, whose ambush had failed.
Clearly, this Uchiha Yansheng had also been a Shadow Clone Technique.
Obito Uchiha did not care about Uchiha Yansheng's Shadow Clone Technique disappearing. Instead, he gave Black Zetsu a strange look before using Kamui to return to the Kamui Dimension.
When Obito Uchiha had used Izanagi just now, he had intended to include Black Zetsu in Izanagi's reality-altering genjutsu as well.
But clearly, Izanagi had failed.
Izanagi was a forbidden technique that required consuming a Three-Tomoe Sharingan. Its principle was to cast genjutsu upon the entire world, thereby evading predetermined crises, even death itself.
Yet this level of ninjutsu had failed to affect Black Zetsu. Was it because Madara Uchiha had awakened the Rinnegan, allowing the Black Zetsu he created to ignore Izanagi's reality-altering genjutsu?
Although he had found himself a perfect excuse, Obito Uchiha still began paying attention to the Black Zetsu he had always overlooked.
In Konoha Village, Uchiha Yansheng, who was looking through documents at the Konoha Library, suddenly froze before nodding in understanding.
After shaking his head to clear the brief confusion, Uchiha Yansheng put down the book in his hand and began walking toward an utterly ordinary house in Konoha Village.
According to what Hiruzen Sarutobi had told him, this house was Kushina Uzumaki's current residence.
Standing at the door, he had not even knocked before it opened.
"A few years ago, I met you. Minato also told me about you..."
Upon seeing Uchiha Yansheng, Kushina Uzumaki immediately began speaking impatiently, her words coming extremely fast.
"Uh, aren't you going to invite me in to sit?"
Uchiha Yansheng stared at the diamond-shaped mark on Kushina Uzumaki's forehead and could not help becoming lost in thought.
It seemed he had changed quite a lot.
Kushina Uzumaki had actually learned the Yin Seal. Combined with the Yin Nine-Tails...
Good grief, Kushina Uzumaki was probably Konoha Village's strongest person now!
"Oh, oh. Sorry, sorry! Please come in..."
"Ever since Minato fell unconscious, I haven't gone out for a long time. I've been terribly neglectful."
Kushina Uzumaki's attitude was surprisingly friendly. It seemed she was not on Hiruzen Sarutobi's side, which was not bad news.
It seemed Hiruzen Sarutobi was not as foolish as Danzo Shimura.
He was barely a competent politician. Knowing Uchiha Yansheng's attitude toward him, he had arranged for someone else to use a conciliatory approach. That was a smart decision.
"Wait, Minato is unconscious? He isn't dead? I thought he was the one who used the Reaper Death Seal."
While thinking, Uchiha Yansheng suddenly noticed Kushina Uzumaki's words and could not help asking.
Hearing that, Kushina Uzumaki was briefly stunned before saying, "It seems you still don't know this."
"That makes sense. Minato was once the Fourth Hokage. If news of his coma were leaked, it would be quite troublesome."
As Kushina Uzumaki spoke, she led Uchiha Yansheng to a place that looked like a storage room.
But after pushing open the door, he discovered that it concealed something entirely different. All sorts of advanced medical equipment monitored the life signs of the person lying in the hospital bed, making Uchiha Yansheng feel as though he had transmigrated again.
This had to do with the unique worldbuilding of the ninja world. All kinds of technology already existed here, and in some aspects, it was not much worse than Uchiha Yansheng's previous life.
But because of ninjas, these so-called technological devices had never truly developed and had almost no presence at all.
"Kushina, may I take a look at the Fourth Hokage's current condition?"
