Naruto: Help Madara rejuvenate and launch a counterattack on Konoha

Ban frowned, somewhat displeased. He was only interested in the Box of Elysium, but not to the point of absolutely needing it.

Madara had only heard of the legend of the Box of Paradise. During the Warring States period, the Land of Grass almost ruled the world with the Box of Paradise.

Legend has it that opening the Chest of Bliss can grant any wish.

However, Madara believed that such legends were untrue; if any wish could truly be granted, then the Land of Grass would not have ultimately failed.

The Box of Bliss doesn't actually have that much power.

Liao Wu, displeased with the appearance of the stigmata, released a powerful electric current that shocked the group of people in Kusagakure.

Immediately, the people of Caoyin were electrocuted by Liaowu and screamed, begging for mercy.

"Hmph, are you all just freeloaders? Don't you know that all leaders are pigs, unable to move an inch?"

"Why didn't you bring the Box of Elysium from Hozuki Castle earlier?"

"..."

Ban squinted, a current surging through his hand. Was Liao Wu calling him a pig?

Shirakawa, sweating profusely, explained to Liaowu, "Lord Liaowu, the Box of Bliss is very large; it's not something an ordinary person can move."

"Moreover, the Land of Rain is currently under blockade by the five great nations, making it difficult for us to go out."

Liao Wu ignored all explanations, his lightning-based technique transforming into a whip that lashed at Bai Chuan: "How dare you! Who gave you permission to explain? Do I care about your explanation? If I say you're wrong, then you're wrong."

"Very well, Lord Liaowu, we were wrong, we are guilty!"

Liao Wu was finally satisfied when he saw the people of Kusagakure submit.

It seems that the only option now is to control the Seven-Tails to fly to Hozuki Castle, and then release the Box of Bliss in Hozuki Castle to release the demon Satoru.

But Ban was a little unhappy: "The Box of Bliss is probably not a very useful thing, so let's not bother with it."

"These Kusagakure people are useless, drag them all away and kill them!"

"ah?!"

The people of Kusagakure were all trembling uncontrollably. They said that Ryougo was a beast, but Madara wasn't much better.

Liao Wu pleaded on behalf of Kusagakure, saying, "Ancestor, the people of Kusagakure also went to Takigakure to capture the Seven-Tails. It was thanks to their intelligence that Konan and Nagato were able to successfully enter Takigakure."

"These people have worked hard, even if they haven't achieved anything great!"

Spot nodded: "That makes sense, let's continue using it then!"

Liao Wu then said, "Ancestor, I think Kusagakure's suggestion is still feasible. Hozuki Castle is not far from Kusagakure."

"Although we are at sea, we have seven tails that can fly."

"Tomorrow I will control the Seven-Tails to go to Hozuki Castle and retrieve the Box of Elysium for you, fulfilling your wish!"

Ban stroked his chin and pondered for a moment.

The Seven-Tails' chakra hasn't recovered yet, but we can wait.

Anyway, Madara has been waiting for almost half a century, so a little more time won't matter.

"Alright, go and fetch the Box of Bliss tomorrow."

"Remember, you're not allowed to make a wish in secret, or I'll chop off your head!"

Liao Wu quickly nodded: "Don't worry, Ancestor, I will definitely not use it."

Liao Wu said this on the surface, but he had already decided to take the Box of Bliss for himself tomorrow.

Madara thought the Box of Bliss was just a flashy but impractical ninja tool, but Ryogoku knew that Satoru was sealed inside the Box of Bliss.

The original plan was for the people of Kusagakure to retrieve the Box of Bliss, for Madara to inject the tailed beast's chakra to unseal Satoru, and then defeat him with the Rinnegan and create a summoning beast for the Animal Path.

However, the people of Kusagakure couldn't transport the Paradise Box to Amegakure because it was too large.

In this way, Liao Wu can subdue Madara before Madara discovers his strength, thus gaining a great advantage.

This is a huge intelligence operation against Madara!

Black and White Jue watched the group of people below from the Takigakure Ancient Tree, and listened to their conversation.

White Zetsu asked, "Can the Box of Elysium truly grant people's wishes?"

Black Zetsu sneered inwardly. As a shadow who had lived since the time of the Sage of Six Paths, Black Zetsu couldn't possibly be unaware of the Box of Elysium.

It wasn't a tool for granting wishes at all; it contained a demon called "Enlightenment."

That demon can drag people into the Box of Bliss, brainwash them, twist them, and turn them into puppets of enlightenment.

The people of the Grass Country nearly ruled the world by controlling Satoru through the Box of Elysium.

Once the people of Kusagakure opened the Box of Bliss, they knew that it was not the wish they had hoped for, but a demon that could destroy them.

Black Zetsu really wanted to see the despair of Kusagakure when they discovered the truth.

On the other hand, Gosho is powerful enough that ordinary Kage or Tailed Beasts are no match for him.

But freckles are okay.

Once Ryogoku goes to Hozuki Castle to retrieve the Box of Bliss, Madara will use his Rinnegan to turn Satoru into a puppet.

Now we're even more confident of defeating the Allied Shinobi Forces.

Because the Seven-Tails will be used, the One-Tailed Shukaku will have to be sealed inside the Gedo Mazo.

Madara then used genjutsu to control Shukaku, sending him to the underground space to seal Shukaku inside the Gedo Mazo.

Liao Wu asked Ban, "Ancestor, don't you need our help to seal it?"

Madara shook his head: "I can handle sealing Shukaku, who has the least chakra, all by myself!"

In the original story, the Akatsuki organization gathered ten top-tier ninjas and spent several days using the Nine Seals of the Illusionary Dragon to extract the tailed beasts from the Jinchuriki's body and seal them within the Gedo Mazo.

Even Shukaku, who had the least chakra, needed to be sealed for three days.

However, Ban doesn't need that many people.

He is the true host of the Rinnegan and the absolute master of the Gedo Mazo.

During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Madara directly controlled the Gedo Mazo to release the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, instantly sealing the nine tailed beasts within it.

You might say that this is conditional, since the Gedo Mazo has already sealed the seven tailed beasts beforehand, and it already has a suppressive effect on them.

Obito was able to control the Gedo Mazo to release the seven tailed beasts and then easily put them back in.

This shows that once a tailed beast is sealed inside, it is not a one-way transformation, but a two-way process, and it can be released at any time.

However, Obito's situation was different from Madara's. The Eight-Tails and half of the Nine-Tails had not been refined by the Gedo Mazo, and Madara still easily sealed them into the Gedo Mazo.

Ultimately, Nagato's use of the Rinnegan was too crude; he never truly mastered its power.

After Madara left, Liao Wu became more assertive: "Men, to celebrate our victory in this Tailed Beast battle, we'll have a celebration banquet tonight."

"All expenses will be paid by me, Young Master Liao!"

The people of Kusagakure were immersed in the joy of opening the Chest of Bliss tomorrow, and were somewhat uninterested in Liao Wu's suggestion, but they pretended to be very happy and agreed with Liao Wu.

They were now thinking of not even sleeping, and would go to the Ghost Lantern Castle that very night to retrieve the Box of Elysium.

But one must take things one step at a time, and with the Rain Country currently under blockade, it won't be easy for them to get out using their own strength.

I can only take Liao Wu's car to Ghost Lantern City tomorrow.
