Uchiha Madara?

Project Eye of the Moon?

Laugh to death.

If Obito knew Rin wasn't dead, he'd definitely become a simp on the spot. He understands her; didn't over 700 episodes of Shippuden already explain the answer?

Chapter 218 The Darkened Boy Has Nowhere to Go, So He Can Only...

With Ah Fei's help.

Obito's Wood Release began to awaken, and with the appearance of his Mangekyou Sharingan, he unleashed a powerful burst of chakra!

"Don't underestimate the ninjas of Kirigakure!" ×4

The Hidden Mist Anbu ninjas, each wielding a sharp blade, quickly appeared around Obito, their blades instantly piercing him.

"Strange, weird?"

"No, I can't feel anything?!"

Before the four Hidden Mist Anbu ninjas could react, Obito unleashed a powerful kick that sent them flying, and then rushed toward Rin Nohara's location. As he passed by, one of the Anbu tried to block him, but was instantly killed by Obito's Wood Release: Wood Spike Technique.

"An expert in the Anbu, huh? Pshaw." Shirahoshi spat as he passed by the Anbu.

Shirahoshi didn't stop Obito, and Obito naturally ignored him, even though he had seen this person before.

"But what is this chakra feeling? It's strange. Otsutsuki clan? It doesn't seem like Isshiki..."

Shirahoshi's gaze fell upon a location deep within the jungle, which, if he remembered correctly, was where Ban was.

......

Plop.

The white Zetsu, which was guarding the cave entrance, rolled onto the floor of the spacious cave interior.

A young man with fair skin, carrying a red fishing rod, walked slowly towards them.

"It should be right here."

"How strange, why is there the power of the Divine Tree here? Wow! That's amazing. It really is... eh. Just a shell. That's so boring." Ōtsutsuki Urashiki sighed slightly. It was just a shell; he couldn't reclaim it, and it was meaningless anyway.

His gaze fell on the old man sitting on the stone bench above the steps, who was scrutinizing him, and then he noticed the old man's Sharingan eyes:

"Oh! From the same clan as Uchiha Sasuke. Hello. And this white-haired old man from the Uchiha clan?"

Madara Uchiha was certain that he did not know anyone named Sasuke Uchiha.

If someone could easily defeat the White Zetsu clone that alerted him at the door, leaving the clone no time to respond, then that person's strength must be at least that of an elite Jonin.

and...

The other person even rolled their eyes!

"Who are you? A ninja from the Hyuga clan of Konoha?" Madara Uchiha asked.

"The Hyuga clan? Konoha? Oh! Right. I do look a lot like those ninjas."

At this point, Urashiki Otsutsuki's tone suddenly changed: "But you should be careful, those ninjas only have power because of Kaguya, they are not the same as us."

Kaguya?

Another name I've never heard of.

Madara Uchiha took a deep breath: "What is your purpose in coming here?"

Urashiki Otsutsuki calmly said, "I just went back in time to collect the Nine-Tails. I just don't know how I ended up in this place."

He looked around at his surroundings and pinched his nose in disgust: "Speaking of which, you're an old man from the Uchiha clan, and your strength doesn't seem weaker than those future ninjas. How come you're so poor that you live in a place like this?"

"Also, how come there's a member of the Otsutsuki clan with you?"

The person Otsutsuki Urashiki was referring to was Black Zetsu, who was hiding inside the wall.

Oh no! It's the extraterrestrial beings Mom mentioned! Why did they appear at this crucial moment?!

Black Zetsu panicked completely. If this extraterrestrial continued to speak, his identity might be exposed!

"The Otsutsuki clan... I remember that surname is... the Sage of Six Paths?" After thinking for a long time, Madara Uchiha finally remembered that he had seen this information in the ninja world history book left by his clan.

Kaguya. The Goddess of the Rabbit.

"That's right. The Kaguya you're talking about is the Kaguya of the Rabbit Goddess in our ninja history, isn't she?"

"Who exactly are you? How do you know all this? And who are the Otsutsuki clan members you mentioned?"

Upon hearing this, Black Zetsu could no longer remain seated. If Urashiki revealed the truth, his millennia-long scheme would be forced to restart. He quickly appeared beside Madara: "Lord Madara, I think we should defeat him first. To arrive before you unscathed, he must be incredibly strong, and he's in great danger for you right now..."

"Shut up." Madara Uchiha seemed to have figured something out, and if he made a move, not only would he not be able to capture the other party, but he would also be the first to die after the fight: "Speak."

"Tsk tsk tsk." Urashiki Otsutsuki clicked his tongue and said, "Judging from your chakra, it has a bit of Kaguya's feel to it. You should be from the same era as the Sage of Six Paths in the history of the ninja world, right?"

"Black Zetsu! Aren't you someone I created?!" Madara Uchiha finally understood what Black Zetsu was so anxious about.

He tried to use his Sharingan to control Black Zetsu, but Black Zetsu was faster, quickly traversing the ground, creating a large distance, and appearing on one side of the wall above, peeking out.

"Damn it! It's all your fault, you damned alien! You ruined my carefully laid plan!"

"I couldn't control myself. He was right all along. You really have been lying to me all along, Black Zetsu!" Madara Uchiha said breathlessly.

He thought that if Black Zetsu really was from the era of the Sage of Six Paths, then the other party must have superhuman abilities.

Now that I see it, it's indeed true.

"Madara... Hmph. Madara, do you think you're so great? You're just an ordinary human whose lifespan is less than a hundred years. I, on the other hand, am a member of the noble Otsutsuki clan, with my mother's blood flowing through my veins."

Furthermore, Black Zetsu's tone shifted, his gaze turning to the amused Otsutsuki Urashiki: "This person's goal is to destroy this planet, to destroy all ninjas. Compared to Mother, they are truly cruel!"

Without saying another word, he crawled into the hole and made his escape.

Urashiki Ōtsutsuki didn't bother capturing something he couldn't devour. His goal had always been tailed beasts—things that were easy to digest and provided significant power boosts.

"What a pitiful old man."

"You just stay and guard this sacred tree's shell. I'll be going now."

"By the way, could you tell me which direction Konoha is in, poor old man?"

Urashiki Otsutsuki's tone showed that he didn't take this former ninja world demon seriously at all.

Madara Uchiha was furious, and when he learned that his plans might be a conspiracy, he was even more enraged.

But now, Black Zetsu's words have given him a wake-up call.

This person says he went back to the past, which means he is a ninja from the future.

The opponent's target is the Nine-Tails.

In other words, for a very long time to come, Konoha and Kurama will be fine...

'Did the plan fail?'

Madara Uchiha inwardly chuckled at himself, his eyes flashing with the image of him and Hashirama establishing Konoha Village.

In the end, he was willing to humble himself once.

"I'll help you. How about it? Since you said Black Zetsu has lived for so long, the Otsutsuki clan must be quite special, right? Don't you want to get the Nine-Tails faster?"

Upon hearing this, Urashiki Otsutsuki glanced at Madara Uchiha with surprise: "You old man are quite interesting."

As he spoke, he shook his head again: "I'm sorry, I don't have any ability to restore youth. Not to mention me, no one from the Otsutsuki clan can do that."

Of course, this is a lie.

They can, but they need to sacrifice their own power to restore youth to lower-class creatures...

Why? Why should I sacrifice my own strength to restore youth to someone weaker than myself?

"Eh? I do. Why don't you come to Loulan and learn from me, Mr. Otsutsuki Urashiki?"

Holding a Black Zetsu, Shirahoshi's head emerged from the wall at the cave entrance, still clutching a Black Zetsu that was foaming at the mouth and had fainted from fright.

"Who are you!"

Even when someone called his name, Urashiki Otsutsuki remained calm and composed. After all, he had never heard of any powerful figures in the ninja world.

"Me? I'm just a passing minister from Loulan. Coincidentally, I recently found a complete corpse of an Ōtsutsuki clan member, and I need it for a comparative experiment. Could you please help me, Mr. Ōtsutsuki Urashiki? I will definitely reward you!" Shirahoshi smiled.

"The light of Loulan has disappeared, and you've indeed returned." Upon seeing Shirahoshi appear and Black Zetsu easily captured by the other party, Madara Uchiha immediately expressed his thoughts: "As the most famous ninja in the ninja world, and proficient in all kinds of experiments, since you know this Otsutsuki Urashiki from the future, you should also know Black Zetsu, right?"

"Of course he knows him."

Before Shirahoshi could speak, a chibi version of Kaguya sat on Shirahoshi's shoulder and said, "Because Black Zetsu was my child. Of course, this one isn't."

Although they are both children, she didn't create this Black Zetsu, and she doesn't acknowledge it.

"What! Kaguya Otsutsuki! How are you still alive! Weren't you sealed in another dimension by the two strongest ninjas in the world?" Otsutsuki Urashiki shook his head again, "No. At this point in time, you should still be on the moon... What, what is going on?!"

"Mom!" Black Zetsu woke up and saw Kaguya, and immediately called out.

"I'm not your mother." Kaguya said, speechless. "Your mother is still on the moon."

"Impossible, you are my mother!" Black Zetsu tried to rush over and touch her, but was immediately pinned against the wall by Shirahoshi, making a cracking sound and leaving a deep dent in the wall.

Of course, Black Zetsu wouldn't feel any pain from this kind of force.

Never underestimate any member of the Otsutsuki clan.

"Damn it! You bastard, get away from my mother!"

Bai Xing's eyes hardened: "This is annoying. If you keep nagging, I'll refine you into something, believe it or not."

Black Zetsu: "..."

The fact that they could endure for a thousand years and remain hidden in the shadows for so long is enough to show that neither Black Zetsu nor Isshiki Otsutsuki were particularly daring.

Sometimes, Shirahoshi even wonders if Black Zetsu is Isshiki's child...

"Since you say so, Shirahoshi, then this person must be from outer space. Quick, kill him! We absolutely cannot let him escape!" Madara Uchiha's voice brought Shirahoshi back to reality.

Shirahoshi looked over and saw that Otsutsuki Urashiki had opened Yomotsu Hirasaka, but he couldn't even use the fishing hook on himself.

"I'm not stupid. Your chakra looks like you have more than Naruto's! Are you kidding me!"
