The fact that Orochimaru could so easily kill the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, and render the Dust Release, which Kekkei Tōta, utterly ineffective, undoubtedly shows that the powerful Rinnegan made Orochimaru arrogant.
Orochimaru's life experiences led him to distrust everyone except himself, which is why he could betray Konoha without hesitation and ruthlessly kill the Third Hokage.
If Naoki Senju had naively believed that a few collaborations would be enough to make Orochimaru submit, he wouldn't be alive and well to this day.
Therefore, when facing Orochimaru, who once again bares his Orochimaru and wants to know more about the Ōtsutsuki, Naoki Senju has a good strategy and experience in dealing with him.
"It's alright, I guess. Compared to the Rinnegan, I'd much rather see Madara Uchiha in his prime."
Naoki Senju materialized from the tree trunk, glanced at the lifeless and unconscious Nagato, and thankfully Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation Jutsu was not yet perfect, so for now he could only create a half-finished Impure World Reincarnation to make do.
This level of Impure World Reincarnation probably doesn't even have 80% of the strength it had in life, or conservatively speaking, about 60%. Only someone like Nagato, who was crippled later in life, might have stronger strength after Impure World Reincarnation than in life.
However, it still can't compare to Kabuto Yakushi's complete version of Impure World Reincarnation Tensei. Therefore, dangerous talents like Kabuto Yakushi should never be left unchecked; who knows what kind of trouble they might cause.
"As expected of Naoki-kun, his confidence is reassuring. However... we might actually witness Madara Uchiha at his peak this time."
Orochimaru casually stuck out his tongue, and his tone of voice made it impossible to tell that he had caused trouble; his confidence was enviable.
"You got tricked by Black Zetsu?" Naoki Senju smiled and exposed Orochimaru's wounds, showing no regard for his feelings.
Or rather, it was expected that Orochimaru would be outmaneuvered by Black Zetsu. Black Zetsu had been plotting in the Shinobi World for a thousand years, manipulating Madara Uchiha with ease. Even if he managed to launch a surprise attack using his precognitive advantage, Black Zetsu could quickly retaliate.
Furthermore, Orochimaru's arrogant and conceited personality makes him easy for Black Zetsu to exploit, the only difference being the extent of the damage.
Mentioning Black Zetsu, Orochimaru's expression instantly became complicated. To be honest, Black Zetsu isn't really that strong. Apart from being able to control White Zetsu and having a powerful self-destruction ability, Black Zetsu basically doesn't have any special abilities, at least he hasn't used any other abilities.
But even under such extremely unfavorable circumstances, Black Zetsu stole Madara Uchiha's Impure World Reincarnation body...
"We suffered a minor setback. Madara Uchiha's Impure World Reincarnation body was stolen by Black Zetsu, and somehow the connection to his Ninjutsu was severed. So, let's be careful from now on." Orochimaru's tone was unusually serious.
If Orochimaru could admit it was a small loss, then the actual loss must have been much greater. It's likely that, besides Madara Uchiha, Orochimaru lost quite a lot of things, all of which were helpful to Black Zetsu's plan.
The connection to the Impure World Reincarnation has been severed... In other words, Impure World Reincarnation Madara Uchiha has actively dispelled the Impure World Reincarnation. The current Madara Uchiha is essentially a user with unlimited data; he no longer needs Orochimaru as his Wi-Fi... Naoki Senju admires Madara Uchiha's ingenious actions.
Even the Second Hokage couldn't break the connection of the Impure World Reincarnation, yet Madara Uchiha, this 'evil Uchiha, ' managed to do it... The Second Hokage must be turning in his grave.
"I understand the situation roughly now. I was planning to play with Ōnoki a little longer, but now I can only wait for the main event to begin."
Naoki Senju found a spot with a good view and watched like a spectator Demonic Statue of the Outer Path sealed the last Tailed Beast, all that was missing was popcorn in his hand.
Having gained a deeper understanding of Black Zetsu, which is the Orochimaru of Otsutsuki Kaguya Chakra, Orochimaru had a direct and profound understanding of the Ten-Tails ' terror, and at this point, he was not as casual as Naoki Senju.
" Naoki-kun, are you really that confident you can seal the Ten-Tails? If the information you've provided is true, then the Ten-Tails is probably the source of Princess Kaguya's power."
Naoki Senju, who was watching the drama unfold, looked up and glanced at Orochimaru with surprise.
"The research has progressed this far? Black Zetsu's Chakra must be quite troublesome."
"It's indeed troublesome. Although it's separated from its original body, Black Zetsu's Chakra seems to still have consciousness, constantly trying to break free of its restraints. I believe the Ten-Tails also possesses a similar ability."
Orochimaru originally wanted a share of the spoils too; after all, which ninja wouldn't covet the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and the Sage of Six Paths?
However, after studying Black Zetsu, Orochimaru abandoned this tempting idea. If his will was not strong enough and his Chakra was not powerful enough, it would only be a matter of time before he was torn apart by the Ten-Tails 'Chakra.
Sealing ordinary Tailed Beast to become Jinchūriki is already one of the most dangerous things in the Shinobi World. Although Tailed Beast will actively try to break free from the seal, their Chakra is just Chakra, which can be used by Jinchūriki.
If the Chakra of the Tailed Beast also possessed consciousness, it would help the Tailed Beast break free from their seals. In that case, there would be no Jinchūriki in the Shinobi World, and any vessel attempting to seal the Tailed Beast would be shattered from the inside.
"The research direction is correct, but how can one possess power without risk? Now is the time to reap the rewards!"
roar--
The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path suddenly began to struggle violently, and the ten Impure World Reincarnation ninjas responsible for sealing the Tailed Beast were instantly thrown away. The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path clutched its head and howled in pain, its nine eyes wide open, as if something was about to burst out of its body.
Obito Uchiha's face instantly darkened as he donned a white mask. This was no longer the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, but the Ten-Tails about to be born!
But how could the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path transform into the Ten-Tails without the Seven-Tails?
Suddenly, Obito Uchiha realized the worst-case scenario: the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki was...
Obito Uchiha around and saw Naoki Senju waving at him from afar. Naoki's smile made Obito Uchiha a Gunbai.
It's Naoki Senju again, it's always Naoki Senju. Now, even the Eye of the Moon Plan, which we finally managed to get back on track, has been ruined by him and is out of control.
The Demonic Statue of the Outer Path's howl didn't last long; its body began to twist, fold, and grow...
Under the terrified gazes of the Iwagakure and Sunagakure Ninja, the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, which was originally a hundred meters tall, transformed into the Ten-Tails, which was even larger and more imposing!
For ordinary ninjas, the difference between the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and the Ten-Tails is only in size. But for a select few, the appearance of the Ten-Tails symbolizes the final struggle. There is only one Ten-Tails, and similarly, there can only be one Ten-Tails Jinchuriki!
Obito Uchiha, who was closest, jumped onto the top of the Ten-Tails ' head, connecting himself to the Ten-Tails in an attempt to control this strongest Tailed Beast.
But a familiar voice rang out behind Obito, instantly sending a chill Obito.
"You did well. I heard that Rin Nohara was also Impure World Reincarnation. Perhaps we can add one more spot for Rinne Rebirth."
