No longer dwelling on her inexplicable extra daughter, or the nonexistent Imu and Celestial Dragons, Kaguya pushed down all the tangled thoughts in her heart and focused once more, watching the Sky Screen's unfolding story intently.
Unlike the bewildered Kaguya, Black Zetsu had suffered a complete mental collapse. He was utterly stunned.
Hidden in the shadows, Black Zetsu trembled slightly, screaming inside.
Wait, what?!
What was going on?!
Since when did Mother have a daughter named Hara?!
This entire story, from beginning to end, was completely fake!
It was slander fabricated out of thin air!
Of course Black Zetsu knew the truth of what had happened back then.
But now, the Sky Screen was openly rewriting it, forcibly giving Kaguya a daughter who had never existed and adding a whole pile of secrets he had never heard of!
Black Zetsu was panicking.
He had a vague sense that a pair of unseen hands was secretly throwing everything into chaos!
Yet there was nothing he could do!
Even though he knew it was fake, even though he knew the Sky Screen was mangling history, he had no evidence!
What made him despair even more was his acute awareness of his own reputation.
Ever since the Sky Screen had exposed all his schemes last time.
In the eyes of the entire Shinobi World, Black Zetsu was a thousand-year-old schemer who hid deeper than anyone, whose cunning was terrifying, and whose every word was a lie.
Even if he leaped out now and shouted that it was all fake, not a single person would believe him.
Everyone would simply think he could not accept having his plans exposed and had come out to deliberately stir up trouble.
Black Zetsu was frustrated beyond measure. Filled with helplessness, he had completely given up trying.
