Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 166: Senju Tobirama's Heart Was Shocked

After Huang Tu left the office, Ohnoki slumped in his chair and sighed secretly.

Judging from Kumogakure's actions, they already have a solution to their dilemma.

What about Iwagakure Village and the Land of Earth? What is their way out?

The Fire Nation model doesn't suit them.

The Water Nation seemed to be well prepared, and the Fire Nation completed the transformation not long after the change, but it was not suitable for them either.

The daimyo did not understand military affairs, and the Kingdom of Wind had already failed because of this.

Only the Land of Lightning is left... He hopes the other party can give him an answer, so that the relationship between Iwagakure and the Land of Earth can be eased.

……

"Obito captured one."

In the dark and damp cave, Madara listened to White Zetsu's report and smiled.

"He has already started to act, and it is time for me to temporarily leave this world."

If it wasn't for buying him time, on the day of the Fourth Hokage's death, Black and White Zetsu would have given Nagato the opportunity to take revenge and summon the Outer Path Demon Statue at the same time.

But delaying until now has reached the limit, and it is time to move on to the next step.

Madara's gaze turned to the unconscious old ninja in the dark corner, his eyes narrowed slightly.

But it's a pity that after all his research, he still hasn't found the best sacrifice for Impure World Reincarnation.

Just make do with this guy.

In order to heal the opponent's injuries, he was also injected with the power of the golem and White Zetsu cells, which should increase the "strength" slightly.

Thinking of this, Madara said to the White Zetsu in front of him and on the land around him:

"Hide my body and show it to Obito. When the time is right, let Zetsu come back to revive me..."

"Yes, Madara-sama!"

After arranging everything, Ban stood up from the stone chair and walked forward.

Boom!

Behind him, several pipes connecting the golems broke in an instant. The exhausted Ban slumped down on the stone chair, looking at Bai Zetsu with a gasp, "After this... I'll leave it to... you guys."

White Zetsu nodded and kept staring at Uchiha Madara until the other party completely lost his voice.

At this time, one after another White Zetsu figures slowly emerged from the ground, staring at Madara's body calmly.

The corpse was silent, and the air around it was so heavy that it could almost be cut.

This scene lasted for several minutes. As if to make sure that Madara would not "speak" again, White Zetsu whispered:

"Madara-sama is dead."

The other White Zetsu nodded:
"Alright, once we've gathered the individual intelligence information, we'll send Madara-sama to 'there'."

In the end, he gave them a reason for losing the body. Uchiha Madara was really considerate.

If Madara’s body cannot be found in the future, it will be Obito’s problem and has nothing to do with them.

Although by that time, Madara probably wouldn't need this corpse anymore...

The White Zetsu looked at each other, and one of them took the initiative to step forward and left with Madara's body.

The other White Zetsu saw this and turned their gaze towards the unconscious ninja in the corner.

In the days before Madara's resurrection, this guy needs them to watch over him.

Although there are Madara's illusions and seals, the opponent is a well-known ninja in the ninja world, so he needs to be cautious.

But using a demigod as a sacrifice... Madara is really extravagant.

A White Zetsu secretly sighed. …

In the hidden laboratory, under the dim light, a chilling scene appeared on the experimental table.

What was once a living being was now just a gruesome wreck.

Most of his body had been stripped away, leaving only a network of red nerve fibers that were intricately intertwined like an eerie abstract painting.

These red nerve fibers flickered with an unnatural luster under the dim light, as if they still retained a trace of life.

They trembled slightly on the experimental table, as if silently telling of their past pain and struggle.

On the edge of the laboratory table, drops of dried blood recorded the cruelty of the operation, and the whole room was filled with a pungent smell of chemicals and preservatives.

The rest of the laboratory was shrouded in shadow, with only the faint electronic sounds of sporadic instruments providing a stark contrast to the scene.

In such an environment, time seems to have stopped, and one cannot help but wonder whether this is the boundary of science or whether one has already stepped into forbidden territory.

The door of the laboratory opened, and Hinata Yu walked in. Looking at the scene, he said:

"Your research is truly chilling, Tobirama-senpai."

"They're not living people, they're just unconscious clones."

In front of the experimental table, Senju Tobirama glanced at Hinata Yu, "And you have no right to say that to me. In terms of research scale, there is no difference between you and me. It was you who first proposed this project."

Hinata Yu did not refute. He observed the humanoid red nerve fibers for a while and nodded slightly, "Good progress."

"You didn't come here to see this, did you?"

Hearing this, Hinata Yu turned his gaze to Senju Tobirama, "I have obtained a good research subject. Weren't you upset about missing out on researching Black Zetsu before? Do you want to take a look?"

Senju Tobirama paused in his movements.

……

"The best research subject to replace Black Zetsu is Uchiha Madara's body?"

"I'm not interested."

"I have almost finished my research on the Uchiha clan."

Senju Tobirama narrowed his eyes at the corpse on the experimental table and said in a low voice: "And for the information of the Eternal Mangekyo, I once thought of taking Madara's corpse. But my elder brother stopped me before he died."

As for the death of his eldest brother, Hashirama Senju... he was busy with the increasingly chaotic situation in the ninja world, and eventually died together with Kinkaku and Ginkaku, and had no time to investigate the affairs of Uchiha Madara.

Now that I think about it, it was really a failure.

If he had realized earlier that Madara was still alive, he could have left more warnings and made more preparations, and even if the Impure World Master had come out, he would not have chosen to die in that battle.

He was just lost in memories of the past, feeling sad for a moment, and then Tobirama Senju came back to his senses because of Hinata Yu's words.

"Madara has changed a lot, you will gain something from it." Hinata Yu said.

Senju Tobirama observed Madara's old face and felt that there was indeed a big difference between him and the impression he had of him, so he couldn't help but nodded secretly.

The changes are indeed huge. The former Uchiha Madara was domineering and arrogant, but there are no traces of that on his current old face.

Thinking of this, Senju Tobirama uncovered the clothes on the corpse's chest, and his face turned dark in an instant.

A familiar face grew on Uchiha Madara's chest, so weird...

Uchiha Madara, that bastard, actually carved his eldest brother’s face on his body?
Is it the influence of Wood Release Chakra?

It should be the transplant of my eldest brother's cells, and it was a perfect transplant...

But no matter what the reason is, Uchiha Madara does have the face of the eldest brother!
Looking at the face on Madara's chest, Senju Tobirama's expression was extremely complicated, and he felt his soul was shocked.

There is always a strange feeling that I want to be with my elder brother even if I die...
