After months of continuous fighting, Kaguya Otsutsuki was ultimately no match for the combined power of her two sons and was sealed away by the Sage of Six Paths, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, using "God: Chibaku Tensei".

However, at the last moment before the seal was sealed, Kaguya Otsutsuki gave birth to her third son, who is now known as Black Zetsu.

Black Zetsu wandered the ninja world for a thousand years, enduring humiliation and hardship, always trying to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"August 70"

Based on the information in Black Zetsu's mind, Uchiha Ryosuke and Uchiha Obito could see it very clearly.

The Sage of Six Paths had two sons: one named Indra Otsutsuki and the other Ashura Otsutsuki.

From that time onward, Black Zetsu had been trying to use them to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki.

So he set a trap and instigated Indra and Asura, causing the two brothers to clash and fight for many years.

However, neither Indra nor Ashura succeeded in growing according to Black Zetsu's plan, and ultimately they were unable to help him revive Kaguya.

In the long years that followed, Black Zetsu tried to use similar methods to bewitch the offspring of these two, but he never succeeded.

Until one day decades ago, he got his chance, infiltrated the Uchiha clan's Naga Shrine, and left misleading information on the stone tablet.

The reason Black Zetsu did this was because he knew very well that the current Uchiha clan was actually a descendant of the Sage of Six Paths.

The Uchiha clan are descendants of Indra Otsutsuki, the eldest son of the Sage of Six Paths.

As for the Senju clan, they are descendants of Ōtsutsuki Ashura, the second son of the Sage of Six Paths.

The information left by Black Zetsu successfully misled Madara Uchiha, allowing him to awaken the Rinnegan and also giving rise to the idea of ​​using the Infinite Tsukuyomi to create a truly permanent peaceful world.

At this point, the truth has been basically clarified.

These sealed memories from Black Zetsu's mind also all vanished.

Before Uchiha Ryosuke and Uchiha Obito's eyes, they reformed into a memory obelisk identical to the surrounding structure.

And it was automatically covered by a sealing shackle, with patterns covering the entire memory obelisk.

Seeing such an amazing scene, even Obito Uchiha couldn't help but marvel.

"Should we examine any other memories?"

Uchiha Ryosuke turned around, looked at Uchiha Obito who hadn't said a word, and asked with a smile.

He personally felt it was unnecessary.

Unless Obito Uchiha is not very bright and hasn't figured out the truth of the matter yet.

Fortunately, Obito Uchiha wasn't really a fool.

After a moment's hesitation, he took a deep breath and shook his head: "No need."

"I have learned everything."

"What you said is true. Black Zetsu is the real mastermind. He is trying to control everything and resurrect Kaguya Otsutsuki."

"Now I believe what you're saying."

At this moment, Obito Uchiha felt a deep sense of powerlessness and exhaustion.

Goosebumps uncontrollably appeared all over my body.

I never imagined that the peace I longed for and the plans I had always believed in were nothing but a hoax.

Black Zetsu's goal is to revive Kaguya Otsutsuki.

If he actually succeeds, then the world will face not peace, but destruction.

Humans, as nourishment for the divine tree, will be drained dry.

Since everyone has died, there will naturally be world peace.

But does such peace still have any meaning?

At this moment, Obito Uchiha was plunged into deep self-doubt.

He was a little annoyed, unable to understand why the plan couldn't be real, why it had to be a scam.

"I just wanted to create a world with Rin..."

He muttered to himself.

Then, he suddenly looked up at Uchiha Ryosuke and asked, "You want to unify the ninja world, but how will you then fight against Uchiha Madara?"

"The world will still fall into collapse."

Faced with the other party's doubts, Uchiha Ryosuke simply shrugged indifferently: "Don't worry, Uchiha Madara is not our biggest threat, nor is Otsutsuki Kaguya."

"If you're worried they'll get in our way if they're resurrected, then just don't let them be resurrected."

"Our real enemy is not them."

Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Obito Uchiha remained silent, instead staring at Ryosuke Uchiha, waiting for him to continue.

Seeing his confusion, Uchiha Ryosuke countered, "Don't you wonder how Kaguya Otsutsuki got here?"

"According to the information and memories in Black Zetsu's mind, as you have seen, she seems to have suddenly descended into this world from outer space, which means that she did not originally belong here."

"Since she wasn't born on this planet, she must have some origin, right? For example, she came from some planet in outer space, or some other dimension? Something like that."

After finishing his sentence, Uchiha Ryosuke shrugged: "So I think the power behind Kaguya Otsutsuki is what we should be wary of."

As he said this, Obito Uchiha's heart tightened.

As he delved deeper into Uchiha Ryosuke's words, he indeed felt a chill run down his spine.

It's probably not an accident that Kaguya Otsutsuki came here.

Moreover, Uchiha Ryosuke is right. Since Kaguya Otsutsuki did not come from this world, she must have an origin, and there is more likely a huge organization or family behind her.

The ninja world is the target of their invasion!

After staring at Uchiha Ryosuke for a while, Uchiha Obito couldn't help but admire him.

He shook his head, once again feeling self-mocking for his past naivety or rather, foolishness. What eternal peace? This world is indeed full of lies.

"So you've already come up with such a long-term plan?"

"Judging from the memories in Black Zetsu's head, that guy named Kaguya Otsutsuki is incredibly powerful."

"If that's the case, then the power behind her is probably far beyond our imagination..."

This guy has clearly started to immerse himself in his identity now.

Give up resistance, give up illusions.

They began to stand on the side of Uchiha Ryosuke, or rather, Konoha, and to think about the problem from the perspective of representing the entire human world in the fight against the unknown.

Seeing that Obito Uchiha had come to believe him and that his inner fantasies were beginning to crumble, Ryosuke Uchiha couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

"Of course, we'll take it one step at a time. The most important thing right now is to stop Black Zetsu's plan."

Hearing this, Obito Uchiha's heart stirred: "What do you plan to do?"

"Kill him."

After speaking, Uchiha Ryosuke's consciousness had already left Black Zetsu's mind.

Obito Uchiha immediately withdrew from Black Zetsu's mind.

He glanced at Nagato and Konan, who were still watching him. Black Zetsu was still bound and unable to move, but there was no sign of Ryosuke Uchiha.

"Has this guy already reached this level...?"

Obito Uchiha was surprised.

Without physical contact, one can infiltrate another's mind to spy on everything, and even forcibly control another's thoughts and behaviors.

As far as he knew, only the heads of the secret clans of Konoha possessed this skill.

For example, the Mountain Clan is one of the best among them.

However, it is clear that Uchiha Ryosuke, as a member of the Uchiha clan, should not normally possess this ability.

In any case, this man has once again broadened my understanding of the world.

Obito Uchiha looked at Nagato Uzumaki and Konan and said to them, "We just found out that Black Zetsu is a traitor to Akatsuki, harboring huge ambitions and planning to use us to achieve his own personal goals."

"Don't believe anything he said before..."

"We're now unsure whether to trust you or him, or whether you're both lying."

Konan calmly looked at Obito Uchiha and said.

"So, you're questioning me."

Obito Uchiha still intended to fool these people.

But just then, Uchiha Ryosuke's voice came from behind: "You haven't made a move yet? You're really dragging your feet."

As the voice rang out, a figure walked directly through the tree disguise created by Xiao Nan and entered.

Upon seeing Uchiha Ryosuke, Konan and Nagato immediately became alert, while also looking at Uchiha Obito with suspicion.

"So, you're actually a Konoha ninja?"

"I suppose so. Well, since you all already know the truth, let's just be frank: I am indeed not Uchiha Madara."

"Furthermore, I have just learned the truth, so the plan we made is null and void, and the Akatsuki organization is to be disbanded on the spot."

Obito Uchiha shrugged and replied.

"Akatsuki never belonged to you, and it's none of your business to decide how to disband it. Since you no longer acknowledge yourself as a member of Akatsuki and have been deceiving us all by claiming to be Madara Uchiha, let's just go our separate ways."

Nagato Uzumaki said in a deep voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, Uchiha Ryosuke immediately chimed in, "You can leave. If the Akatsuki wants to exist, then let them continue to exist. But the Tailed Beasts must be handed over to me."

"This is impossible."

Nagato Uzumaki flatly refused.

Xiao Nan also instantly became alert.

At this moment, the subdued Black Zetsu laughed: "Heh... Nagato, this is the result of your not cooperating with me. In any case, Akatsuki is destined to fail now."

"Because you simply cannot contend with the entire Hidden Leaf Village. They already control most of the ninja world, right? Heh..."

"If you want to continue realizing Yahiko's ideals and create a truly peaceful world, you must resurrect the real Uchiha Madara. Obey my instructions honestly, and perhaps there will still be a chance to salvage the situation, Nagato—"

Black Zetsu hadn't finished speaking; he was still trying to persuade Nagato to use the Outer Path Samsara Rebirth Technique to revive Madara Uchiha.

But at that moment, his voice suddenly stopped.

A sharp dagger pierced his throat.

Then a flash of cold light appeared, and the blade sliced ​​his head in two.

"It's so long-winded."

Uchiha Ryosuke casually sheathed his short sword, then looked up at Uzumaki Nagato and Konan.

"I plan to unify the entire ninja world, to integrate all countries and all people into one big family, and from now on we will all be compatriots of the same country, bound by blood."

"In this way, there will be no more conflicts of interest between nations, and the ninja world will usher in permanent peace."

He said this to Nagato and Konan.

Upon hearing this, the two were slightly taken aback.

Isn't Uchiha Ryosuke's ideal goal the same as the original intention of their Akatsuki organization?

Slightly different is that Yahiko's original goal was to create the Akatsuki organization and monopolize all wars by accepting all commissioned missions.

In this way, they can prevent wars from happening and create a truly peaceful world.

Therefore, they later devised a plan to capture the nine tailed beasts as strategic weapons.

In other words, they intend to use force to compel the entire ninja world to return to peace and stability.

The idea proposed by Uchiha Ryosuke is to first integrate all the countries, large and small, in the entire ninja world into one whole, so that the people on this continent will no longer be distinguished from each other, and everyone will be compatriots of one country.

In this way, there will naturally be no dispute.

Although it seems like a relatively mild approach, it essentially requires conquering all the countries by force first, making their leaders willingly submit to their people.

This is a case of different paths leading to the same goal.
