Killing his way through the ninja world, starting from being adopted by the second generation!

In the silent space, only his soft breathing could be heard.

Ever since Renya told him that his identity had been exposed, he left the mansion in the Land of Iron.

We arrived at the spot that had been prepared from the beginning.

This underground space was a hiding place that Ban had chosen long ago.

As for the other positions in the ninja world, they are merely a means to deceive others.

In the minds of Renya and Hashirama, they would probably think he was hiding deep in the mountains.

That's not the case; he was hiding dozens of meters underground.

This location ensures that no one can find it.

After an unknown amount of time, Madara Uchiha slowly opened his eyes.

A pair of purple Rinnegan eyes quietly appeared.

It emitted a faint, indifferent, godlike purple glow.

"With these eyes, peace in the ninja world will no longer be an ideal!"

With the Rinnegan in hand, achieving peace is no longer out of reach; for him now, it's just a matter of time.

But for him right now, time is the most precious thing.

Madara Uchiha felt himself aging, and a trace of resentment appeared in his eyes.

Why didn't the Rinnegan appear sooner?

Why did he only acquire it when his strength had significantly declined?

Although the Rinnegan greatly enhanced Madara's strength, the aging of his body was still inevitable.

He has grown old.

His physical condition was not good enough to support him in completing the "Eye of the Moon" project alone.

Time is something that even the strongest person fears.

He can silently cause a strong person to gradually decline from their peak.

Until finally, when the oil ran out and the lamp went out.

Everyone's lifespan is different.

Some people can live to ninety, while others can only live to eighty.

He felt that he didn't have many days left.

"I want to see the day when the ninja world achieves peace. I cannot die before that day!"

A rare hint of emotion flickered across Madara Uchiha's usually indifferent face.

In his view, whether or not he personally achieved peace was unimportant.

The important thing is that he wants to see it with his own eyes!

Madara Uchiha extended a withered hand and formed several special hand seals.

"Summoning Technique: Demonic Statue of the Outer Path!"

The deep voice echoed in the grotto, containing an unquestionable will.

above the moon.

The main family and the branch family, who were facing off, stopped simultaneously.

The demonic statue of the heretic not far away vanished without a trace in an instant.

"The Demonic Statue of the Heretic has disappeared!"

The Otsutsuki clan members on the moon, whether from the main family or branch families, all looked grim.

They were responsible for guarding the Gedo Mazo to prevent Kaguya Otsutsuki from being resurrected.

But now the Demonic Statue of the Heretic has disappeared!

"Main family, the Outer Path Demon Statue has disappeared. It must have been those Earthlings who did it!"

The Otsutsuki branch family member said with dissatisfaction.

"The world created by our ancestors is a failure. The Earth's ninja world uses chakra as a weapon, and wars are constant. We should destroy the Earth and create a new world!"

"No, we cannot do such a heinous thing!"

The head of the Otsutsuki clan was a middle-aged man in his thirties.

He refuted the argument about separating the family without hesitation.

The main family believes in maintaining the peaceful world created by the Sage of Six Paths and upholds the ideal of peace.

However, the family members who separated from each other did not think so.

The two have been arguing about this for an unknown period of time.

"You've been to the ninja world, don't you know what it's like there?"

The elder who led the family division stepped forward and loudly rebuked them.

The clan patriarch remained silent upon hearing this.

When he was young, his father sent him to the ninja world for training, just as the branch family had said.

The ninja world is full of conflict.

But this is not a reason for the branch family to plan the destruction of the ninja world!

"If you continue to be stubborn and refuse to see the light, don't blame me for being sentimental."

The head of the main family's gaze was icy; he had already decided to kill the branch family.

"Ootsutsuki Hiroki, you'll regret this sooner or later!"

The elder from the branch family snorted coldly, angrily leading his clansmen away.

The branch family is no match for the main family now.

Even if they were dissatisfied with the main family's actions, they could only swallow their anger and resentment.

“Clan leader, our conflict with the branch family has reached an irreconcilable point,” a member of the main clan stepped forward and said. “We should make preparations as soon as possible.”

Yuuki Otsutsuki didn't speak, but simply gazed at the distant ninja world.

"Is the disappearance of the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path related to you?"

Deep underground in the ninja world.

Rumble—!!!

The earth trembled violently, and immense chakra tore through space.

A humanoid monster, resembling a withered tree trunk, with no face, only empty eyes and a mouth, and multiple arms, appeared behind him.

This is the demonic statue of the heretics!

Madara Uchiha turned his head to look at the Gedo Mazo behind him, and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Having the Rinnegan naturally leads to knowing how to use it.

Under his control, the Gedo Mazo extended several chakra chains that pierced straight into his back.

The Gedo Mazo can provide a continuous supply of chakra.

To stop his body from aging further.

In this way, he can live to see the day when the ninja world achieves peace!

Next, we can utilize the power of the Gedo Mazo.

Madara Uchiha manipulated the Gedo Mazo, combining its life energy with Hashirama's cells.

The roots of the demonic golem pierced the earth like living things, beginning to catalyze and nurture...

The pale, humanoid embryo took shape on the roots like a fruit.

boo——

The first white Zetsu, with indistinct features and a completely pale body, appeared before Madara.

"Madara-sama!"

It spoke respectfully to its creator.

Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan gazed upon this first creation.

"White... Absolutely..."

He gave them names.

For some reason, he felt that this thing should be called White Zetsu.

Then came the second, the third... hundreds and thousands of White Zetsu were produced in an endless stream, filling the entire underground space.

Madara Uchiha looked at the White Zetsu army he had trained, his aged face revealing an expression of complete control.

"Go," he commanded softly, his will conveyed to each White Zetsu through the Gedo Statue.

"Infiltrate underground, go to every corner of the ninja world... become my eyes and ears, my hands and feet..."

Like worker ants receiving instructions, countless white zeolites silently merged into the rocks and sank into the ground, beginning their silent infiltration and lurking.

After doing all this, Madara Uchiha closed his eyes again.

However, he did not notice at all that a black substance in the shadows had also silently left.

"Madara has finally awakened the Rinnegan!"

Black Zetsu looked excited; everything was proceeding smoothly according to plan!

It believed it would soon be able to rescue its mother!

"By the way, it's been a long time since I've visited the cook."

With that, it immediately headed towards Konoha Village.

Chapter 415 The Tragedy of Small Countries

Konoha Village, Tobirama Senju's residence.

Black Zetsu nodded in satisfaction when he saw Lian Ye still lying in the courtyard sunbathing.

"Sure, the cook certainly knows how to enjoy life."

As long as you're in a good mood, living to 100 is perfectly fine.

However, over the years, the chef's appearance seems to have remained unchanged.

Black Zetsu stared intently at Lian Ye's face, and couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised.

It's been almost seven or eight years since it last saw the cook.

As a result, the cook's appearance was not much different from back then, as if time had not left any trace on his face.

Black Zetsu was even more satisfied now.

Although I don't know how the chef manages to fight aging, it's a good thing for him.

The longer Lian Ye lives, the more delicious food she can make for her mother.

It didn't want the cook to be an old man when its mother came out.

Wouldn't that mean Mother wouldn't be able to enjoy delicious food for many more years?

However, it once infiltrated Tobirama Senju's laboratory and learned that it contained ninjutsu for summoning the dead.

If Renya really dies one day, she can be recalled using ninjutsu.

We'll figure out a way to revive them later...

While enjoying a sunbath, Lian Ye was completely unaware that his sugar daddy was plotting how to make him work hard in the future.

Madara Uchiha awakened the Rinnegan, but the cook's body was still in peak condition.

I believe it's only a matter of time before my mother is resurrected.
