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

At this point, nothing from the past matters anymore.

"spot!"

Just as Hashirama Senju was about to continue trying to persuade him, the latter stopped looking at him.

Seeing this, he knew that his best friend could not be persuaded by him, so he could only clench his fists in resentment and slowly lower his head.

Despite the excruciating abdominal pain and dizziness from blood loss, Lian Ye pulled out the black rod that had pierced her and casually stuck it into the ground.

He knew that for someone like Grandpa Ban, normal persuasion was completely useless.

Such people tend to believe only what they see with their own eyes, and no amount of persuasion from others can change their minds.

They're the type who won't turn back until they hit a brick wall.

Even if he were to summon the deceased Uchiha Izuna now, given the nature of the Uchiha brothers' relationship...

Izuna might even help Madara achieve his dream.

In any case, it's impossible to persuade Madara to give up the "Eye of the Moon" plan.

Although he didn't want to see Grandpa Ban die like this, there was no other way at the moment.

At worst, he can just wait until he catches Black Zetsu and then use Samsara to revive him.

In any case, with the Rinnegan, being resurrected from the dead is not difficult at all.

"The 'Eye of the Moon' plan is the only salvation... You'll understand sooner or later..." Madara Uchiha's voice trailed off, the light of his Rinnegan gradually dimming, "But before that... Renya..."

His gaze refocused on Lian Ye, but his eyes no longer held a cold killing intent.

Instead, it carries an indescribable expectation.

Or perhaps it's more like... entrusting something to someone?

"Use your eyes to see the truth of this world... and see what the future holds for everything you claim to protect."

The current peace in the ninja world is a facade; it is a peace maintained by Konoha's overwhelming military force.

As long as Konoha weakens, war will break out again!

Just like when Hashirama faked his death and left Konoha.

One day, Lianye will realize how ridiculous her actions in trying to stop her from achieving the "Eye of the Moon" plan were!

Madara Uchiha's body could no longer support him and he slowly fell backward.

"Madara!" Hashirama Senju rushed forward and caught Madara's fallen body, his face filled with sorrow.

Regardless of differing ideologies, the person before him is ultimately his closest friend.

You could say the two aren't brothers, but their bond is stronger than that of brothers.

Lian Ye stood there, clutching her wound, silent.

The current situation is completely different from what he once imagined; he has failed to ensure that Grandpa Ban can enjoy his later years in peace.

Instead, they let him leave ahead of time.

If Madara hadn't been misled by Black Zetsu, if Madara hadn't been so fanatical.

Things wouldn't have turned out this way.

He didn't complain about Grandpa Ban's ideas; everyone has different beliefs and perspectives.

In Renye's view, the "Eye of the Moon" plan was just a conspiracy by Black Zetsu to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki, and Madara had been deceived.

But in Madara Uchiha's eyes, the "Eye of the Moon" plan was the only way to achieve peace in the ninja world!

To Madara, Renya's obstruction was an attempt to prevent the achievement of peace.

The two had completely different ideas, making a conflict inevitable.

Just like the Valley of the End between Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, it was irreconcilable and inevitable.

The ultimate victor achieves his ideals, while the loser dies with regret.

But this time it was different from the Valley of the End; Madara Uchiha was really dead, killed by his own hands.

As Renya looked at Madara Uchiha's corpse, the scene of their first meeting flashed before her eyes.

That was the first time he had ever met Madara in the true sense.

Later, under the guise of a mission, he visited the two in the cave. During this time, Madara used his immense strength to help him complete many S-rank missions.

Then there's the scene of them sunbathing in their mansion in the Land of Iron.

Renya originally thought that she could let Madara live the same life in Konoha Village in the future.

Enjoying the sunshine with Uncle Hashirama every day, living a fulfilling retirement life.

But things backfired.

Chapter 510 Madara's Contingency Plan

Uncle Ban, whom I've known for decades, is dead. He died at my hands.

Renya stared blankly at Uchiha Madara, who had collapsed in Senju Hashirama's arms, and fell into a long silence.

He had always wanted to inherit Madara's Rinnegan, dreaming of possessing the Rinnegan and standing at the pinnacle of the ninja world.

But now that Madara Uchiha is dead, he has no intention of inheriting the Rinnegan.

It is undeniable that the Rinnegan is incredibly powerful, yet Madara Uchiha was killed by his own hands.

Under such circumstances, how could Renya possibly convince herself to remove Madara Uchiha's eyes?

Clearly, he couldn't convince himself to do such an inhumane thing.

It's important to understand that inheriting a senior's estate is completely different from killing a senior to seize their property!

He's not like Itachi Uchiha or Obito Uchiha, who are completely inhuman.

Forget it, I'll give up the Rinnegan.

Tobirama Senju came to Renya's side, looked at Renya's sad expression, and said softly.

"Kid, don't blame yourself, you made the right choice."

Madara Uchiha had unwavering beliefs and witnessed countless hardships and deaths in war, experiences that shaped his worldview.

Furthermore, his unwavering desire to realize the "Eye of the Moon" plan makes him an extremely idealistic individual.

She is not influenced by other people's opinions at all, so it's normal that Lianye and her older brother's attempts to persuade her failed.

The more you say that, the more counterproductive it may be, making them even more convinced of their own beliefs!

Sometimes, the people who understand each other best are often our enemies.

……

Tobirama Senju knew about the relationship between Renya and Madara Uchiha. Seeing Renya's sad expression, he subconsciously offered to comfort her.

He took one last look at Madara Uchiha's corpse, then turned and beckoned the Konoha ninjas to leave.

Now let the eldest brother and Renye spend some last moments with Madara.

Although Tobirama Senju hated Madara Uchiha, he did not gloat over Madara's death.

He disdained to do things that would humiliate the dead.

As for researching the Rinnegan, he had already given up hope.

The elder brother could not possibly agree to him disposing of Madara's corpse, just like after the battle at the Valley of the End ended.

However, this time he will regularly examine Madara's body to prevent him from using Izanagi to fake his death again!

Soon only Renya, Hashirama, and the Three-Tails, which was controlled by genjutsu, remained in the arena.

"Renya, what should be done with Madara's body?"

Senju Hashirama felt the gradually cooling corpse in his arms and looked up at Renya for her opinion.

"Let's find a secluded spot and bury Lord Madara," Lianye said in a deep voice.

Madara Uchiha's body must be properly buried and kept secret from others.

To prevent anyone from finding his body years later, he was summoned using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

For example, Yakushi Kabuto.

Even if his existence changed the course of the ninja world, who can guarantee what will happen in the future?

Even if it wasn't Kabuto Yakushi, it could have been someone else.

It's important to understand that Madara Uchiha's death did not mean the end of the matter; Black Zetsu, lurking in the shadows, never actually appeared.

As long as it exists, the "Eye of the Moon" project will not disappear!

Who knows, that guy might be secretly watching their every move.

With Madara Uchiha killed, Black Zetsu must be furious and very likely wants to tear him to pieces.

In reality, Black Zetsu was indeed present, but he wasn't as furious as Lian Ye had imagined.

"Madara Uchiha really lost to the cook," Black Zetsu muttered to himself.

He never expected that the powerful Uchiha Madara would lose, to the cook he had carefully chosen for his mother!

The way things unfolded was unexpected, yet also perfectly logical.

Ultimately, Madara Uchiha was too old and was no longer in his prime.

It's not surprising that he lost to a younger chef.

"It seems we have no choice but to proceed according to plan." Black Zetsu glanced at the Three-Tails, which was controlled by the Sharingan.

Eight of the nine tailed beasts' chakra have already been absorbed, and now only the chakra of the final three-tailed beast is missing.

The reason Black Zetsu didn't fly into a rage is because it had already foreseen Madara's defeat.

Or perhaps Madara knew he would fail...

Three days ago, in a cave in the Land of Iron.

"Afei, do you really think I can defeat that kid and collect all the tailed beasts to start the 'Eye of the Moon' plan?"

Madara Uchiha, feeling his condition steadily declining, subconsciously asked a question.

"Lord Madara, I believe you can definitely defeat Lord Renya, collect the Three-Tails' chakra, and successfully realize the 'Eye of the Moon' plan!"

Ah Fei said with a look of admiration.

In its mind, Lord Madara is the strongest person in the ninja world.

Even if Lady Renye possesses the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, she still wouldn't be a match for Lord Madara!

Madara Uchiha nodded slightly upon hearing this.

He didn't really want to get an answer from Afei; he just wanted to give himself some comfort.

Although Madara was confident in his strength, his physical condition was not as good as before, and he could not accept the consequences of defeat.

Only the "Eye of the Moon" plan can change the ninja world!

If he truly fails, death is his only option.

Death was not frightening to Madara Uchiha; what was frightening was the inability to realize his ambitions!

How could he die without bringing complete peace to the ninja world?!

To prevent the plan from failing, he needed to have a backup plan...

Even if you really fail, you still have a backup plan to make a comeback!

Madara Uchiha closed his eyes and began to think about his plan.

The answer came quickly.

He beckoned and summoned a White Zetsu, then placed his hand on the White Zetsu under A-Fei's questioning gaze.

Soon, something shocking happened.

Half of the white Zetsu's body turned black!

This is the embodiment of Madara's will!
