Madara, You're the Easiest Uchiha to Fool I've Ever Met!

Kagami Uchiha didn't delay much. He slowly began to speak, "Back then, along with your mother Kaguya, there was another person who came to this planet. That person was named Ōtsutsuki Isshiki, Kaguya's superior. Kaguya's original fate was to become a sacrifice for the Ten-Tails; however, your mother was unwilling to wait for death, so she betrayed Isshiki and ambushed him, severely injuring him."

"But Isshiki managed to escape and is still alive in the Shinobi World."

"What? Ōtsutsuki Isshiki?" Black Zetsu exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this.

Is that you, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki?

Are you your mother's mortal enemy?

Most importantly, this guy survived his mother's sneak attack.

Upon realizing this, Black Zetsu immediately asked urgently, "Is that person named Isshiki still in the Shinobi World?"

"Why have I not heard any news of this person in the past thousand years?"

Seeing this, Kagami Uchiha smiled slightly and spoke earnestly, word by word. "Ever since Ōtsutsuki Isshiki ambushed Kaguya Isshiki, he has been parasitizing a monk named Jigen, and he can discard this vessel and unleash his full power whenever the time is right."

At this point, he looked at Black Zetsu's increasingly solemn face and continued, "Think about it, as Kaguya's superiors and fellow members of the Ōtsutsuki clan, you should know how terrifying their strength is, as Kaguya's offspring."

"By then, even if your mother Kaguya were to return to the world, having just been released from her cage, facing Isshiki at his Isshiki, I think you can imagine what would happen."

"What can you do with your meager strength?"

"As Isshiki of the Ōtsutsuki Clan, Ichishiki won't be fooled by your tricks."

As the words fell, Black Zetsu's expression grew increasingly panicked. Kaguya was the most important person to it, and Kagami Uchiha was right. Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's strength was terrifying. Even if her mother descended upon the Shinobi World again, how could she possibly resist an enemy who had waited for her for so many years?

With this thought in mind, Black Zetsu, despite his severe injuries, immediately knelt before Kagami Uchiha and pleaded respectfully, "Lord Kagami! Please save my mother!"

"Therefore, I am willing to serve under your command and be at your service from now on!"

Upon hearing this, before Kagami Uchiha could even speak, Madara Uchiha couldn't help but interject, "Hey! Kagami! This beast is a complete schemer, don't fall for his tricks!"

Hearing this, Black Zetsu tilted his head slightly, his expression disdainful, and sneered, "Heh... do you think everyone is as stupid as you?"

"To be honest, in all my years in the Shinobi World, I've seen countless descendants of Indra, most of them outstanding and intelligent. But you, Madara! You're the easiest Uchiha I've ever met to be fooled!"

Before Madara could even react, Kagami Uchiha immediately spoke up, "Black Zetsu! You've been hiding in the Shinobi World for a thousand years, all you wanted was to rescue your mother."

"To be honest, I have the utmost respect for people who are filial to their mothers. In this respect, I would call you the most filial son in the Shinobi World!"

At this point, Kagami Uchiha's expression turned serious as he continued, "If you are valuable enough, I might be able to help you rescue your mother!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the Black Zetsu opposite it trembled violently and struggled to raise its head. "What did you say?"

"Are you really willing to help me rescue my mother?"

Seeing this, Kagami Uchiha nodded calmly and said indifferently, "Of course, go ask around in the Shinobi World and see if I, Kagami Uchiha, have ever gone back on my word."

"However, all of this must go according to my plan, and before that, I need to take something from you."

As soon as he finished speaking, Kagami Uchiha's right eye Mangekyō Sharingan, suddenly activated its eye technique, and a strange and profound aura immediately emanated from it.

Ame-no-Minaka!

Since its inception, this eye technique has possessed the power to forge, purify, refine, and transform all Chakra and bloodline essence.

At that moment, a faint light emerged from the depths of the right pupil, and an invisible suction force was born out of thin air.

The Black Zetsu on the other side immediately felt an irresistible force tearing at its core. It was the Ōtsutsuki Kaguya gene, hidden deep within its body, which was the life foundation that had sustained it for thousands of years.

"Ugh--!!"

With a hysterical scream of pain, excruciating agony instantly engulfed Black Zetsu's entire body. It writhed wildly on the ground, countless black liquids thrashing about, trying to break free from the pull, but the suction force emanating from the Ame-no-Minaka firmly locked onto its essence.

As Ame-no-Minaka continued to absorb, a faint silvery-white essence was forcibly extracted from Black Zetsu's body and flowed into Kagami Uchiha's right eye through the void.

As this immense power of the Ōtsutsuki's original bloodline flowed into Uchiha's right eye through the void, the already extremely rich Uchiha bloodline within his body instantly boiled over.

His right eye, having absorbed the essence of the Ōtsutsuki bloodline, immediately began to tremble violently, constantly emitting a deep purple light, slowly transforming towards a higher level, taking another big step closer to the true Rinnegan.

After a few breaths, the suction force slowly dissipated.

Kagami Uchiha slowly closed his right eye, and when he opened it again, all the strange phenomena in his eyes had disappeared, as if nothing had happened.

Having had its origin absorbed, Black Zetsu collapsed weakly to the ground as its eye technique was deactivated. Its entire body became abnormally thin, and waves of fear rose from its heart.

Looking at the dying Black Zetsu, Kagami Uchiha lowered his head slightly and calmly said, "I didn't take everything from you, I only borrowed a small part."

"I suppose, for your mother's sake, such a pledge of allegiance means nothing to you."

Upon hearing this, Black Zetsu's weak and feeble voice rang out. "That's right, as long as we can rescue Mother, this fatal wound is nothing!"

At this moment, Madara Uchiha, who had been silent all along, spoke calmly and coldly, "Heh... I didn't expect that such an oddball like you would have such filial piety. Looking at it this way, you do have some redeeming qualities."

At this point, he turned his gaze to Kagami Uchiha and said with certainty, "That feeling just now, it was the Rinnegan, wasn't it, Kagami!"

"I didn't expect you to be about to awaken the Rinnegan at such a young age. It seems you have more potential than me!"

Upon hearing this, Kagami Uchiha remained calm and said, "You flatter me, Madara-senpai. If I didn't have such magnanimity, how would I dare to come to you alone?"

"Furthermore, without such confidence, how can I talk about bringing peace to the Shinobi World?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Madara Uchiha changed drastically, and his tone became urgent. "What? Kagami, you also want to bring peace to the Shinobi World?"

What are your plans?

Can you tell me?

I'm willing to help you!

Seeing Madara Uchiha's impatient expression, Kagami Uchiha couldn't help but smile.

Indeed, Lord Madara is a true peace lover.

What a lovely old man Deng...
