Chapter 550 Black Zetsu: I'm your good uncle!

Faced with Madara Uchiha's persistent questioning, Black Zetsu simply stopped arguing. The abstract black mud seemed lifeless, but it was rapidly pondering how much Madara Uchiha actually knew.

In the eyes of Madara and Obito, Black Zetsu was silently giving up.

This completely ignited the former's anger.

"You won't talk? Then disappear with your secret."

Madara Uchiha laughed in fury, then suddenly exerted force with his feet, kicking Black Zetsu away like a football.

Immediately afterward, Madara Uchiha completed the hand seals, and his chest swelled up high.

"Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation!"

A torrent of blazing fire erupted from his mouth, its orange-red light illuminating a large expanse of gray space.

The sea of ​​fire swept forward along the stone platform, engulfing Hei Jue in the blink of an eye.

The ever-increasing temperature scorched the stone surface, so high that even the surrounding floating stone platforms began to crack.

As the fire subsided, Madara Uchiha's brows furrowed slightly.

Surprisingly, Black Zetsu remained completely unharmed despite being scorched by the flames.

Madara Uchiha refused to believe it. A dark blue chakra rose from his body, solidifying layer by layer from his skeleton to his torso and then to his armor.

Susanoo!

In an instant, the giant chakra sword slashed down at Black Zetsu.

The sword struck the stone platform, sending large fragments of stone flying to both sides.

Black Zetsu was also crushed into countless tiny droplets.

However, before long, the droplets once again crawled along the stone surface in the same spot, gradually gathering together.

Madara Uchiha slowly retracted his Susanoo, somewhat puzzled.

Obito was even more dumbfounded, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became. He had thought that Madara Uchiha's strength was enough to crush everything.

Unexpectedly, even Madara Uchiha couldn't defeat this Black Zetsu.

If those attacks had hit him, he would have died countless times over without using his divine power to dodge.

Unexpectedly, Black Zetsu seemed to be immortal, and no method could have any real effect.

"What exactly is this thing?"

Obito murmured in disbelief.

Black Zetsu has been tormented for so long that he has realized there is no point in continuing to pretend.

Since Madara Uchiha couldn't kill it for the time being, it decided to throw out some half-truths and find an opportunity to continue to bewitch the two.

His body slowly reformed from the ground, and he arrogantly said, "Don't waste your energy, Uchiha Madara. It is indeed beyond my expectations that you were able to detect my presence. Unfortunately, you discovered it too late."

"Your methods can tear my body apart, but they can't kill me. No matter how strong you are, you can't do anything to me."

Madara Uchiha did not respond, but just stared at it coldly.

This thing lacked the vital points that flesh and blood creatures should have; no matter what kind of attack hit it, it was like a mud ox sinking into the sea. This existence that defied common sense filled him with deep disgust.

"What, finally had enough?"

Seeing that he did not continue to attack, Black Zetsu said confidently, "Now that you've vented your anger, can we talk calmly? With these methods alone, you'll never be able to kill me."

"Besides, strictly speaking, I'm your good uncle."

Upon hearing this, the Divine Might Space fell silent.

Upon hearing this, both Madara Uchiha and Obito were startled.

"Nonsense."

After a brief moment of surprise, Madara Uchiha's aura turned completely cold.

"I don't have an uncle at all. You, a rat who can only hide in the shadows and eke out a living, dare to spout nonsense here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hei Jue did not restrain himself; instead, he let out a low, mocking laugh.

"That's why I said you don't understand anything. The history you know is just the tip of the iceberg. However, as an elder, I don't mind your offense. After all, you are the descendant of my foolish older brother, so it's normal for you to have a little temper."

Obito quickly pondered the potential information hidden in Black Zetsu's words.

If Black Zetsu wasn't talking nonsense, how much of the Uchiha clan's history, which they've never encountered, is still hidden back to its earliest origins?

Madara Uchiha's murderous intent grew stronger.

He clearly didn't believe this absurd claim.

However, the Yin Release chakra emanating from Black Zetsu, which is similar to his own, remains an issue that cannot be ignored.

Black Zetsu continued, "Those things are not important, Uchiha Madara. As long as you are willing to put aside your temper and continue to cooperate with me, I can still guarantee that you will get the result you want in the end. I can also pretend that everything that happened today never happened."

Madara Uchiha snorted coldly.

How could Madara Uchiha, a man of such stature, possibly cooperate with someone who spouts nothing but nonsense?

Even if he can't kill Black Zetsu for the time being, he will never allow himself to become its pawn again.

"Don't be too smug." Obito, who had been silent all along, finally spoke. "You should know very well what kind of place this is. As long as I don't open the passage, you will never be able to get out of here in your lifetime. As long as you are trapped here forever, all your hard work and plans will be completely wasted."

Upon hearing Obito's words, Black Zetsu's arrogant demeanor instantly froze.

Having worked with Obito for many years, he was extremely familiar with Kamui's abilities and therefore understood that these words were not a threat.

The art of the mayfly allows it to blend into soil and rocks, moving rapidly between different mediums, but it cannot cross the boundaries of space itself.

Without Obito actively opening the exit, it truly cannot leave this place.

Madara Uchiha also spoke up at this moment: "You are hard to kill, but you have no power to attack head-on. Just like just now, no matter how I tortured you, you could only passively take the beating like a piece of slime from beginning to end, without even a decent counterattack. A piece of trash like you is no threat at all except that you can't be killed."

Upon hearing this, Black Zetsu's body stiffened instantly. Although the movement was extremely subtle, it did not escape Madara Uchiha's eyes.

Obito quickly realized that from the moment he was captured and taken into the Kamui dimension, Black Zetsu first pretended to be pitiful and show his loyalty. After realizing that the pretense was useless, he took advantage of his inability to be killed to talk back.

Despite Madara Uchiha's relentless attacks, it never took the initiative to retaliate.

The fact that they didn't fight back even after being beaten to this extent speaks volumes.

"I see."

Obito looked at Black Zetsu and laughed mockingly, "You really are just a guy who only knows how to hide in the shadows and play tricks. All you have left is a mouth."

In an instant, Black Zetsu's expression turned extremely ugly.

Madara Uchiha was right about its weakness.

As the last embodiment of her mother's will hastily left behind before being sealed away, it inherits her obsession and mission, rather than the power to suppress the ninja world.

Over the years, it has not relied on force.

Over the long years, Black Zetsu's greatest strengths lie in stirring people's hearts and manipulating situations from the shadows, as well as his unparalleled patience.

Currently trapped in the Kamui dimension and being targeted by two of the most elite Uchiha clans, it doesn't have many cards left to play.

However, Black Zetsu has one more trick up his sleeve.

Madara Uchiha's will is too strong; a direct assault at this moment would be unwise.

But Obito is the one who can take it away from here.

If we can possess Obito's body, even if we can't control him immediately, we still have a chance to force him to open the exit to reality.

"You're right." Black Zetsu suddenly laughed after figuring it out. "I may not be able to defeat Uchiha Madara, but—"

Before he could finish speaking, the entire mass of black mud stretched into a long, narrow black shadow and shot towards Obito, instantly reaching him.

Unexpectedly, it seemed that Obito had been prepared all along.

The moment Black Zetsu tensed up, he had already identified his target and darted to the side and back, skimming close to the stone.

Black Zetsu crashed headfirst into the stone surface behind him.

Obito stopped a dozen meters away, his kaleidoscope firmly locked onto it.

"I was prepared for this."

He said smugly, "After working with you for so many years, do you think I don't know your true nature? Did you really think I'd be completely unguarded listening to all this nonsense? You're too naive!"

Black Zetsu was both shocked and furious, his body surface undulating like boiling mud.

The current situation is extremely unfavorable for it.

At this point, Madara Uchiha had lost his patience.

Black Zetsu was clearly only willing to utter half-truths, and continuing to drag things out wouldn't yield any results.

To trace its origin, we need to start from the outside.

"Since you're unwilling to talk, then stay here and sober up."

He ignored Black Zetsu and turned to Obito, saying, "Take me out of here."

Obito glanced at Black Zetsu, who was huddled in the distance.

The other person remained huddled in the corner, staring at them menacingly.

Obito knew perfectly well that such a thing was lost in his Kamui dimension.

It's like keeping a poisonous snake locked up in your own home.

However, there was no safer way, so Obito finally nodded.

Without saying much, he raised his hand and placed it on Madara Uchiha's shoulder.

The spatial vortex opened, engulfing both of them.

The Divine Might Space returned to silence.

Only Black Zetsu remained in the boundless void.

Inside the underground cave, Madara Uchiha and Obito reappeared.

As soon as the two landed, they saw a jet-black ninja crow perched on the armrest of a stone chair not far away, seemingly having been waiting for some time.

A crimson glint appeared in the eyes of the ninja crow. It tilted its head and looked at Obito with its crimson eyes.

Obito spread his hands towards it and said helplessly, "We've caught the person, but there's not much we can do about it for now. That thing is very strange; no matter what attack we use, it has no effect on it."

Madara Uchiha, standing to the side, remained unusually silent. He stood alone in the shadows, his aura incredibly low.

Anyone would find it hard to accept suddenly learning that the grand plan they've poured their life's blood and soul into, even at the cost of betraying everything, turned out to be nothing more than a manipulated scam.

-

No one disturbed Madara Uchiha, who was lost in a deathly silence.

Obito recounted the entire confrontation that had just taken place in the Kamui dimension, as well as everything Black Zetsu had said.

After listening, Ninja Crow nodded slightly.

Itachi's voice followed: "Since conventional methods can't kill him, we can try sealing techniques."

Madara Uchiha shook his head at this moment and said, "Sealing won't solve the problem. Kamui Dimension itself is a prison. We don't know whether it is the mastermind or a pawn left behind by some more ancient being. What it knows is more valuable than itself. If we don't find that guy hiding in the shadows, even if we seal Black Zetsu now, a second or third Black Zetsu will definitely emerge in the future."

Upon hearing Madara Uchiha's analysis, Obito nodded in deep agreement.

The cave was quiet for a while.

Madara Uchiha suddenly looked up, his sharp gaze falling on Obito, and asked abruptly, "You've spent quite a bit of time with it, and in all these years, you haven't noticed anything unusual?"

Obito shook his head nonchalantly and shrugged.

"You really can't blame me for this. Jue is always burrowing underground, appearing and disappearing whenever he wants, appearing and disappearing like a ghost. How could I possibly find anything unusual?"

"Besides, you created it yourself. Even you didn't see the problem, how would I know?"

Obito's words were very blunt, even somewhat defiant.

Madara Uchiha's expression darkened slightly, but he did not retaliate.

That statement is harsh, but it's not wrong.

Black Zetsu's greatest strength is concealment. Even he has been deceived for so many years, so how can we expect Obito, the kid he tricked into the scheme halfway through, to see through it?

The scene froze.

Obito suddenly had a flash of inspiration and analyzed, "However, thinking back on it now, there is indeed something wrong."

"According to what you told me, Black Zetsu was created by you after the Battle of Kannabi Bridge. Yet it is excessively familiar with the Rinnegan, the Gedo Mazo, and even some things from the era of the Sage of Six Paths. I used to think they all came from you, but now it seems that may not be the case."

"And when it comes to collecting the tailed beasts, it's always more eager than anyone else."

Madara Uchiha narrowed his eyes and made a mental note of these two points.

After a moment of silence, Obito's unconventional thinking led to a strange conjecture.

"Speaking of which, could it be that Zetsu wasn't lying just now?"

"Could it really be that uncle you've never met?"

Madara Uchiha's face darkened instantly, as if he had suffered a great humiliation. He angrily retorted, "How could that be! My father has no brothers, so where would an uncle come from?"

The crow looked at him for a while, then calmly spoke in human language: "Since it's impossible by blood, is it possible that you have an identity in this world that you yourself don't even know about?"

This statement may seem irrelevant, but it hits the nail on the head regarding a point that Madara Uchiha had been overlooking.

He frowned, recalling once again the scene of the shadow being forced out of his body.

The Yin Release chakra on Zetsu's body was almost identical to his aura, making it difficult to distinguish.

This phenomenon, where even their chakra is identical, is by no means accidental; there must be some kind of connection between them.

The ninja crow gently shook its wings and continued, "I will consult some documents next. There are many ancient books passed down in the ninja world. Perhaps we can find some clues."

After explaining his destination, Itachi looked at Obito and said, "You can try your luck in Sunagakure. Sasori is now the Kazekage, so he should have access to the documents preserved in Sunagakure. If Zetsu is really related to some ancient beings, there might be records in the old archives of the Land of Wind."

Upon hearing this, Obito immediately felt displeased.

When did Itachi start teaching him how to do things?

He's the boss, okay?

Moreover, he hated that godforsaken place, Sunagakure, from the bottom of his heart.

Before Obito could retort, Madara Uchiha gave him a cold glance and made the decision: "Do as he says. He's much more reliable than you."

Obito was taken aback by those words.

He wanted to retort, but after meeting Madara Uchiha's frighteningly calm eyes, he swallowed his words.

He wasn't afraid of Itachi, but there was no need for him to go and provoke Madara when Madara had just realized he'd been fooled for most of his life.

Madara Uchiha leaned back in his stone chair and continued, "During this time, I will also investigate the White Zetsu. The Black Zetsu has problems, and the White Zetsu is definitely not clean either, but they are still useful for now."

He had made up his mind to recall the White Zetsu scattered in various places in batches. Before the situation was clear, he would only make limited use of their existing intelligence network and would not allow any White Zetsu to come into contact with the core deployment.

Upon hearing this, Obito immediately thought of Orochimaru, "If we want to investigate White Zetsu, perhaps we can go to Orochimaru."

Madara Uchiha looked up at him, signaling him to continue.

Obito continued, "Orochimaru has been studying White Zetsu for quite some time now. With his abilities, he might have already discovered something about White Zetsu."
