"As long as you do your best to contribute to the Gods Alliance, I'll do everything I can to give you whatever you ask for."
Yechen's words were directed at these people, and that was precisely his intention.
"Divine Lord, you asked me to keep watch on Black Zetsu. I've found something," Obito Uchiha said, stepping forward.
"Oh? Tell me. What has he been doing?"
Hearing this, Yechen immediately perked up.
"Black Zetsu wants to work with you to complete the Eye of the Moon Plan. He probably thinks I can't carry it out, so he's been looking for opportunities to approach you lately."
The Nine Tailed Beasts were all in Yechen's hands now, though news of their evolution had not spread. To complete the Eye of the Moon Plan, the Ten-Tails had to be awakened.
Using the power of the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki to cast Infinite Tsukuyomi would be the most crucial step in Black Zetsu's efforts to save his mother.
Unfortunately, he lacked even the prerequisites. Without the Nine Tailed Beasts, how could there be a Ten-Tails Jinchuriki?
Black Zetsu also knew that, given Yechen's strength, force was out of the question.
"Then how does he intend to work with me?"
"That's still unclear. He'll probably offer you something."
Obito Uchiha was telling the truth. Black Zetsu saw no hope in him, so naturally, he would not share much information with him.
"All right, understood."
Yechen acknowledged this and decided to meet Black Zetsu to see what he intended to offer him.
"Divine Lord, save me!"
To everyone's astonishment, Kakuzu crawled in from outside, looking utterly bedraggled.
Who was Kakuzu? The chief steward of the Gods Alliance, a man with more authority than some elders. Who here was bold enough to frighten him into such a state?
