Chapter 209 - Chapter 210: The Truth of the Past, Obito's Rage, Black Zetsu Wants to Use Edo Tensei on Madara

Naruto World, Konoha Village, inside the Hokage Office.

"..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi watched Danzo Shimura speak, appearing very calm, as if he hadn't heard a word the man said.

"As I thought, you found out from Itachi."

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's attitude, Danzo Shimura knew that the other already knew about this matter.

Aside from Itachi, only the members of Root who had acted with him back then knew about this.

"Yes."

From the day Danzo made his move against Shisui, Hiruzen Sarutobi had known. In fact, even if Itachi hadn't told him, Hiruzen Sarutobi would have known.

Hiruzen Sarutobi also knew that Shisui's death was related to Danzo; after all, he was the only one in the Village who would do such a thing. No one else would.

Seeing that Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't have much of a reaction, Danzo's heart sank slightly, but he continued: "Shisui's Mangekyo Sharingan possesses the power to change the consciousness of others."

"Naruto has a sense of belonging to the Village, so I'm not worried about him. After all, he is Minato Namikaze's son and has, in a sense, inherited his personality."

"But Uchiha Sasuke is different."

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't speak; he silently took a puff of his pipe. He knew what Danzo was going to say next, but he didn't argue.

Because the massacre of the entire Uchiha clan was something Danzo had orchestrated himself. Although he, as the Hokage, knew about these things, he had chosen to turn a blind eye for the sake of the Village.

In this matter, he had no right to say anything.

"He has no sense of belonging to the Village; instead, he has a feeling of hostility. In the video, he even voiced his intent to destroy Konoha."

Danzo looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said very seriously: "So I've decided to use Shisui's Mangekyo Sharingan to control him, making his heart forever loyal to Konoha. This way, no matter what happens, it will be of great benefit to Konoha."

This was an overt scheme; Danzo was speaking of the benefits of controlling Sasuke from Konoha's perspective.

Naruto would never betray the Village; his personality was excellent. In Hiruzen's words,

this child was just like his father and should become the Hokage in the future.

"What about the Six Paths Sage?" Hiruzen Sarutobi asked pointedly. "When you use Shisui's ocular technique, he might come out to stop you. What do you plan to do then?"

"Risks are unavoidable."

Danzo felt that as long as he controlled Sasuke, even if the Six Paths Sage appeared, it would be a bearable risk.

"Enough, get out."

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't want to hear any more of Danzo's words. He said sharply: "As long as I am alive, you are not allowed to have such thoughts. Danzo, let me tell you, my patience has limits. If you dare lay a hand on Sasuke, I will kill you myself."

After speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi stopped looking at Danzo. He stood up, turned his back to him, and looked out at the scenery of Konoha.

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi's attitude, Danzo was also somewhat enraged. Without another word, he threw open the door and shouted: "Tobirama-sensei was indeed wrong about you! Facing the naturally evil Uchiha, you actually believe they will change. You are not fit to be Hokage, Hiruzen!"

With that, Danzo slammed the door and left.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression remained unchanged. He looked at the multiverse projection ahead and silently opened a private chat with Itachi, telling him what had just happened.

As for what would happen later, Hiruzen Sarutobi decided that just like the Uchiha massacre night, he would see nothing and simply wait for the final result.

From the moment Danzo planned to use Shisui's Mangekyo to scheme against Sasuke, he had completely crossed Hiruzen Sarutobi's bottom line.

Because once the Six Paths Sage became angry, it would cause unimaginable damage to Konoha.

Similarly, if Shisui's Mangekyo Sharingan failed, Sasuke would also be disappointed in Konoha, so he had to stop the other man.

In a corner of Konoha Village.

"Eh?! EHHHHH!!!"

Naruto, who was still immersed in the fact that he was the son of the Fourth Hokage, now stared at the Six Paths Sage and fell into a brief contemplation.

Does this count as a massive jump in seniority for me?

"The Six Paths Sage? I never expected to see him with my own eyes."

Jiraiya was equally surprised. Although he had seen various traces left behind by the Six Paths Sage from Mount Myōboku and all over the Ninja World,

and through those traces, Jiraiya knew that the Six Paths Sage was a being who longed for peace, and that he had created Ninjutsu Sect to create a world where people understood each other,

it was a pity that such a thing was fundamentally impossible.

If it weren't for the child of prophecy mentioned by the Great Toad Sage, Jiraiya would likely have felt despair toward this Ninja World filled with slaughter and resentment.

However, Jiraiya never expected that the legendary Six Paths Sage would actually be inside Naruto and Sasuke.

Even if he was only remaining in this world in the form of Chakra, was this the Six Paths Sage? He truly is incredibly powerful.

"Thank you, Naruto!"

Might Guy gave Naruto a thumbs up, revealing his snowy white teeth, and said with a smile: "You saved me!"

"Ah, Bushy-brow Sensei, that was power given to me by the Six Paths Sage."

Naruto scratched his head. He knew that the power used to save Bushy-brow Sensei wasn't something he possessed, but was given by the Six Paths Sage.

"But, is the final battle next?"

Kakashi looked at Naruto and Sasuke in the video, and then at Six Paths Madara ahead. He knew this might be the final battle.

"Perhaps it is."

Jiraiya looked at the Naruto-Sasuke duo and Six Paths Madara in the video. He said calmly: "However, both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages. Madara hasn't gathered both Rinnegan, while Sasuke and Naruto have just mastered this power and still need to get used to it."

"Lord Jiraiya, what do you think?" Kakashi looked at Jiraiya, feeling curious.

Although the No. 1 spot in the previous video had already revealed that Naruto and Sasuke were destined to win, the process was still worth analyzing.

For example, in the duel between Joseph and Kars, the difference in strength was huge. But if Joseph hadn't habitually picked up the 'red stone of aja,' causing Kars' Hamon/ripple to hit it, Kars wouldn't have been forced to stop thinking.

For example, in the duel between Light Yagami and L, both sides had wins and losses, and both fought with their lives as the stakes. In the end, L was a step ahead, writing his own name in the death note to make Light Yagami think he was dead, thus securing victory.

When the Blank Siblings fought Jibril, they exploited Jibril's personality and knowledge she didn't possess, and had been setting the stage from the very beginning to win.

These processes were all very thrilling, but there was one downside: now that they knew these things, others knew them too.

After Uchiha Madara is resurrected in the future, he can use these videos to analyze Naruto and Sasuke's strength.

Even if Naruto and Sasuke won in the video, the Naruto and Sasuke of this world's future might lose.

"I don't know. This kind of battle has already exceeded my predictions."

Jiraiya gave a helpless smile. He didn't think he was faster than Minato or stronger than Might Guy with the Eight Gates open.

So he had nothing to say about a battle of this level, other than analyzing the general situation.

"Sigh."

Kakashi let out a quiet sigh, feeling that he needed to become even stronger. Perhaps he really did need to pick up his father's sword techniques again.

The video continued playing.

Naruto and Sasuke looked at Six Paths Madara.

"Sage Art: Yin Release Lightning Dispatch!"

Finally, Six Paths Madara made his move. He formed a seal and extended both hands, purple lightning erupting from his palms and striking toward Naruto and Sasuke.

*Swish!!*

Naruto threw out a black rod, blocking the purple lightning.

"Hm?! Sasuke, he..." Six Paths Madara noticed that Sasuke had vanished. He was somewhat surprised, and then he saw Sasuke standing some distance away from Naruto.

'That left eye... I see.'

Sasuke placed his hand over his Rinnegan, roughly understanding what kind of power it possessed.

'That distance... Body Flicker?' Madara appeared somewhat surprised. He hadn't seen Sasuke move just now. Soon, he thought with a start: 'No, it wasn't movement.'

*Swish!!*

Naruto, biting a specialized Kunai, appeared above Six Paths Madara. He raised the black rod in his hand to attack the other, saying: "Don't look away!"

'Limbo!'

Six Paths Madara's Rinnegan widened slightly as he activated Limbo: Border Jail.

"?!"

Sasuke looked at Naruto and Six Paths Madara, asking in surprise: "What is that?!"

*Boom!!*

Naruto intended to strike Six Paths Madara with the black rod, but his body stopped in mid-air, as if he had hit something.

"Sage Art."

Six Paths Madara took a deep breath and spat out a purple beam of light from his mouth, instantly shattering the black rod.

"Storm Release Light Fang!"

'Here it comes again!' Naruto seemed to sense something.

"Over there?!"

Sasuke silently drew his kusanagi sword and threw it between Naruto and Six Paths Madara.

*Swish!!*

The kusanagi sword passed through the space between Naruto and Six Paths Madara without hitting anything at all.

*Boom!!*

In the next instant, Naruto was sent flying as if he had been struck by a heavy blow.

"Sasuke, it's going toward you!" Naruto, who had tumbled on the ground, regained his balance and shouted to Sasuke: "Something I can't see is darting around!"

"Is that so?" Sasuke said nonchalantly. "I can see it quite clearly."

Looking at Naruto and Sasuke, Six Paths Madara thought grimly: 'These two... they've indeed seen through my Limbo...'

"Is this... another Madara?"

In Sasuke's Rinnegan, there was another Madara standing in front of Six Paths Madara.

Six Paths Madara looked at Naruto and Sasuke, thinking: 'With the Rinnegan, can you finally see it? And Naruto, you can't see it, but you can sense it.'

"Naruto!" Sasuke spoke up, looking at Naruto. "It seems our physical attacks are ineffective against the other Madara."

At this moment, Six Paths Madara was somewhat surprised, because logically, it should be impossible to sense or observe Limbo: Border Jail from this world.

Yet Sasuke and Naruto had sensed it nonetheless. Moreover, how did they suddenly obtain such powerful strength?

Furthermore, that Uchiha Sasuke was the only one besides himself to awaken the Choku-tomoe Sharingan.

Six Paths Madara felt that Sasuke and he seemed to have some connection other than blood.

"In that case!" Thinking this, Six Paths Madara flew toward Sasuke, saying seriously: "Surely his left eye would be the most suitable eye for me."

*Hum—!!*

At that moment, Six Paths Madara showed a pained expression as his body was impaled by the kusanagi sword.

"Eh?!"

Naruto was surprised, unable to understand the situation.

"Is that the ability of your left eye?"

At this point, Six Paths Madara seemed to have gained some understanding of Sasuke's ability.

Naruto still wore a look of shock, while Sasuke slowly walked over. He looked at Six Paths Madara and said: "Let's test it then. You won't die from a small wound like this, will you?"

At the same time, Sasuke looked at Six Paths Madara and the shadow Madara, thinking: 'It's the same for the shadow Madara; attacks with Six Paths Sage Chakra are effective. The wound on his right arm was left when he initially defended against Naruto's attack.'

While Sasuke was thinking this, Six Paths Madara's shadow returned to his body.

"It seems your shadow returns to your body after a period of time," Sasuke said calmly, then looked at Naruto beside him and said seriously: "Naruto, when that guy's shadow appears again, you deal with it. I'll handle the one we can see. However..."

"Hmph~" Naruto said with a smile, "It's annoying to be ordered around by you; that habit of mine hasn't changed even now."

"Let me finish."

Sasuke appeared somewhat helpless as he said: "Listen, now is a good opportunity. I suspect he and his shadow will temporarily overlap. Prepare the next move with Sage power—any move will do, as long as it can seal his movements."

"Then let's use my Chakra to perform the Sealing Jutsu."

At this moment, the image of the One-Tail, Shukaku, appeared in Naruto's mind.

"Thanks, uh..." At this moment, Naruto fell silent, seemingly not knowing the other's name.

"My name is Shukaku!!"

Shukaku shouted loudly!

Six Paths Madara silently pulled the kusanagi sword from his body, thinking calmly: 'The duration of Limbo and its activation interval, as well as the method to counter it—have they already figured it all out?'

'I see, you are very sharp, with calm analytical and judgmental abilities, and you've even awakened the Straight Tomoe just like me. If he had been born before Obito, I could have...'

Clearly, Six Paths Madara held Sasuke in high regard, feeling he was even more excellent than Obito.

However, Six Paths Madara quickly steeled his resolve: 'No, that doesn't matter now. Regardless, I must remember that these two in front of me are no ordinary brats. I'd better gather both eyes as quickly as possible.'

"Sage Art! Magnet Release Rasengan!"

Naruto took the lead using Senjutsu.

"I also have the Six Paths Power. Chidori." In Sasuke's palm, marked with a black crescent moon, a black Chidori flickered. He looked at Naruto and said, "Naruto, use that move to attack me! That will definitely work!"

Naruto looked at Sasuke with some impatience: "Even though it's a bit annoying, your words are beyond doubt."

Six Paths Madara was stunned by this scene, not understanding the current situation.

Swish—!!

The next moment, Naruto and Sasuke launched attacks toward each other.

And in that split second, Six Paths Madara appeared between them, taking the full force of both their attacks.

The people outside the video were slightly stunned, and the Six Paths Madara inside the video was also extremely shocked.

'How did I end up here!'

"Naruto!" Sasuke spoke up quickly: "Use that move the Six Paths Sage taught us, you understand, right!!!"

"Got it!" Naruto naturally knew what Sasuke meant and shouted, "Here it comes!"

Just as Naruto and Sasuke were about to do something, Six Paths Madara flew toward the sky.

"What?!"

"He moved?!"

The two appeared very surprised. Then, Sasuke looked ahead with his Rinnegan and found that the shadow Madara was trapped. It seemed Madara had used his shadow as a Stand?

"Over there!" Naruto also noticed the fleeing Six Paths Madara and said to Sasuke, "Sasuke, I'll pin this guy down, you go after the real body."

Sasuke didn't speak; his Rinnegan widened slightly, and then it began to tremble faintly.

Seeing this, Six Paths Madara thought calmly: 'From this far away, it seems the Rinnegan's ability cannot be used.'

'I'm starting to figure out the ability of your left eye, Sasuke.'

Six Paths Madara flew forward while Naruto said anxiously, "Hurry, Sasuke! The place Madara is heading—Kakashi-sensei is there!!!"

Just as Naruto finished speaking, Six Paths Madara had already gouged Obito's Sharingan out of Kakashi's eye.

Without a word, Six Paths Madara shoved Obito's Sharingan into his own eye socket. Accompanied by a green light, he opened his eye.

In another world.

Sakura Haruno raised her Kunai, intending to stab Obito's Rinnegan.

Obito said with a tremble, "Hurry and destroy the Rinnegan. I can no longer suppress Black Zetsu."

Just as Sakura Haruno took a deep breath and prepared to plunge the Kunai into Obito... Outside, Six Paths Madara looked at Sasuke rushing toward him and praised, "But your movements are truly fast, Sasuke."

Swish—!!

Holding the lightning-flickering kusanagi sword, Sasuke sliced Madara's body in half with one stroke.

'Kamui!!!'

But at that moment, a vortex appeared in Six Paths Madara's left eye, sucking half of his body into it.

"!"

Sasuke gritted his teeth; Six Paths Madara had actually only transferred his upper body.

Inside the Kamui dimension, Obito looked at Sakura Haruno and said, "Hurry."

"I understand." Sakura Haruno's Kunai stabbed toward Obito's Rinnegan.

Buzz—!!

The space distorted. Seeing this, Six Paths Madara shouted, "Delusional!"

Swish—!

A black rod flew toward Sakura Haruno.

"!!!!!! Kamui!"

Seeing this, Obito also activated Kamui, transferring Sakura Haruno out.

The screen faded to black slightly.

Outside the video.

Magical Girl Illya World.

"This is bad!"

Illya looked at Sakura Haruno being transferred out in the video and shouted, "This so-called Madara is about to collect both Rinnegan."

"Yes." Miyu nodded slightly, though she didn't show much emotion, saying calmly, "It was mentioned before that the so-called Sharingan needs both eyes to exert its true power."

"Before, Kakashi and Obito, with only a single Mangekyo Sharingan, could only use a portion of the power. With two Mangekyo Sharingan, the full power is unleashed."

"Now... this Madara will likely become even more powerful."

As Miyu spoke, Illya suddenly thought of something, her gaze shifting subtly toward magical ruby and sapphire.

Sensing Illya's gaze, magical ruby asked curiously, "Illya, what are you thinking about?"

"Um~" Illya looked at magical ruby and sapphire with a strange expression and said, "I was just thinking, are you two like that Sharingan? Are you only a complete entity when you're a pair?"

"While it's not exactly a 'complete entity'," magical sapphire spoke up, her tone very calm, "if Lady Illya or Lady Miyu holds both me and my sister, you will gain immense power. However... the price might also be very high."

"Extremely high, actually. The kind where you might die if you're not careful," the magical wand said with rare seriousness. "Unless you're in a life-or-death situation, Illya, don't even think about it."

"So it really is a thing!"

Illya was shocked. Although she had only recently gained this power and was just speculating, she didn't expect such a mode to actually exist.

"Yes."

magical ruby nodded slightly, then said in a subtle tone, "However, the current situation is a bit delicate. It feels like a typical shonen plot where the protagonists just manage to suppress the BOSS, only for the BOSS to enter phase two."

"Yes." Miyu nodded, also commenting, "Just as Madara gained the power to suppress everyone, the Six Paths Sage gave Naruto and Sasuke the power to fight him."

"Now that Madara has increased his power again, I expect the final conclusion is next."

Even Miyu felt that the final battle was approaching.

"Yeah, the final battle. Naruto and Sasuke will definitely win," Illya said. Having seen scenes of the future, she naturally knew Naruto and Sasuke would be the victors.

But even knowing the outcome, watching the process was still very exciting.

One-Punch Man World.

"The final mastermind has appeared. Is the final battle next?"

Genos frowned slightly. He felt something was off, but the current progression of the plot, from any angle, seemed to be telling him so.

The Six Paths Sage is the true mastermind, and Six Paths Madara is the Big Boss, based on the subsequent plot development.

After that battle is over, the Six Paths Sage will appear in the world to explain things to them.

Then Naruto and Sasuke will fight each other, and the final result is unknown.

"Doesn't it feel a bit too much like a cliché plot?" Saitama commented. Even he felt the story was getting a bit too traditional.

"Shouldn't reality be a bit more normal?"

Seeing Saitama's comment, Tatsumaki said calmly, "After all, judging by Naruto's level of shock, the Six Paths Sage should be a figure who died a long time ago. He's a character who lives in the lore."

Indeed, from the beginning, Uchiha Madara had spoken about the Six Paths Sage, foreshadowing his appearance.

And looking at that world, if the Six Paths Sage hadn't appeared, things would have gotten out of hand.

"Well, I feel like it's not quite satisfying enough," Saitama said directly, wearing a rather disappointed expression. If it's just the Six Paths Sage appearing, it doesn't feel explosive enough.

It feels a bit too plain.

There's no ideal plot twist. The previous ones all had major twists, but this one seems a bit flat.

"Yes, I was thinking the same thing."

Genos nodded slightly, impressed that his Master knew his thoughts. He felt the same way.

While ending it like this would be fine, it feels a bit too ordinary, not quite fitting the title of this video.

"Let's keep watching. Maybe there's another twist later."

Tatsumaki thought this was okay, but if there was a better twist, that would be great too.

Detective Conan World.

"I feel like something is wrong."

Kudo Shinichi lay back on his bed, watching the scenes in the video, his eyes narrowing. Although the Six Paths Sage appeared, he gave Naruto and Sasuke new power.

The so-called Six Paths Power allowed Naruto and Sasuke to fight Six Paths Madara.

But Kudo Shinichi felt something was very off, even though the story development seemed perfectly normal.

Receiving power from an old man and then powering up to fight a mighty BOSS is quite standard.

"There's another twist coming."

Kudo Shinichi was certain there would be another twist, perhaps even a massive one.

Maybe that twist involves the Six Paths Sage's mother, the so-called Ōtsutsuki Kaguya.

Because she appeared at the very beginning, and later when Six Paths Madara and Obito conversed, her existence was mentioned. The Six Paths Sage also mentioned her when he appeared.

This constantly mentioned existence made Kudo Shinichi feel that she would definitely make an appearance, and in a very shocking way.

Thinking of this, Kudo Shinichi couldn't help but show an interested smile. As expected, the multiverse projection is very interesting.

These are things hard to see on TV. This mysterious software connecting countless worlds might truly allow him to become the 'Holmes' of the Heisei era.

The video continued playing.

Six Paths Madara held Uchiha Obito up, his hand sinking into Obito's chest near the heart. He said with some surprise, "The Cursed Puppet Tag I placed in your heart is gone. How did you remove it? You shouldn't have been able to harm yourself."

At this point, Six Paths Madara was missing the lower half of his body, yet he still floated in mid-air.

Obito looked at Six Paths Madara, his voice trembling slightly: "Kakashi pierced my body and removed the tag!"

The scene shifted briefly to Obito and Kakashi piercing each other's hearts.

However, Obito seemingly had no intention of killing Kakashi, because if he had truly pierced Kakashi's heart, the latter would have died long ago instead of still being alive and well.

But Kakashi did indeed pierce Obito's heart, and in doing so, he conveniently removed the Cursed Puppet Tag inside.

Obito continued, "Because if I wanted to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, I had to remove that thing. I gambled with my own life, but I won't let you have your way!"

"Hahahahahaha!!!!"

However, Six Paths Madara laughed darkly. He looked at Obito with pride and said, "Your actions have been perfectly in line with my plan, even exceeding my expectations."

Looking at the laughing Six Paths Madara, Obito was very confused: "What's so funny?"

Six Paths Madara continued: "The Cursed Puppet Tag placed inside a puppet—if you try to remove it from within, the curse will suppress that action. You seem to know that, Obito."

"I placed Cursed Puppet Tags inside both of you. Naturally, you couldn't commit suicide, because you are my important pawns."

"Both of... us?!" Obito looked shocked, staring at Six Paths Madara in disbelief.

Boom!

At this moment, crimson lightning appeared, illuminating Six Paths Madara's back.

Six Paths Madara let out a cold sneer. Looking at Obito with his crimson Rinnegan and Mangekyo Sharingan, he said, "I wonder what kind of karma led you two to use the exact same method to erase it. Truly interesting."

"!!!!!!"

Obito's pupils shrank, because the so-called'same method' made him think of a certain scene.

That was when Rin's heart was pierced by Kakashi.

"Rin!"

Obito shouted that name.

"Exactly," Six Paths Madara answered. He looked at Obito and continued, "Making that girl the Jinchuriki of the Three-Tails and planning for her to run wild in Konoha—that was my plan, not the Hidden Mist Village's."

"She used Kakashi's attack to sacrifice herself and protect the Village. That was also part of my plan, all to make you fall into darkness and become my pawn."

Obito's pupils trembled as he said in a furious voice, "You bastard! You intentionally made me..."

Six Paths Madara held Obito high up and continued to sneer, "I specifically chose the time when Minato was on another mission, leaving Kakashi alone, had Rin kidnapped, and manipulated the Hidden Mist Ninjas to hunt them down. This was all my plan!"

"This was also to observe how much power you could release. The White Zetsus egging you on to leave the underground at just the right time—do you really think that was all a coincidence?!"

Obito's pupils shook violently as those scenes from the past flashed through his mind. His expression was one of shock and disbelief.

Six Paths Madara continued, "I just didn't expect that little girl to die by Kakashi's hand. Regardless, I had originally intended for the puppet Ninjas to kill her."

"Obito, didn't I teach you? To manipulate the human heart, you must exploit its darkness."

At this moment, Obito's expression was one of unwilling resentment. He gritted his teeth, his face full of rage.

Six Paths Madara continued to smile and said, "If there is no darkness, it can be manufactured. Did you really think you were the only one who was special? Isn't that thought laughable?"

"WHY!!!!" Obito finally couldn't take it anymore. He shouted in a voice bordering on a breakdown, "Why choose me?!!"

Six Paths Madara looked at Obito with a hint of appreciation and said, "Because from the bottom of your heart, you were full of kindness and love for others. Weren't you very good at taking care of the elderly?"

"For Rin, for your comrades, for the Hokage, for the ninjas—you loved them deeply. Once you fall, this love transforms into a profound hatred for this world."

"The deeper the love, the deeper the hate."

Saying this, Six Paths Madara pulled Obito in front of him and continued, "I still need a few more things to get my way. Give me back my left eye."

Outside the video, in the Naruto World, Konoha Village.

"This..."

After seeing this scene, Kakashi's pupils also shook. His body couldn't help but tremble. He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, erupting with an unprecedented rage.

Originally, Kakashi thought this was the work of the Hidden Mist Ninjas because they wanted to conduct Tailed Beast experiments, so it was normal not to use their own villagers.

But now, although he hadn't finished the video, Madara's words made Kakashi realize that everything was Madara's plan.

To make Obito fall, the enemy specifically let him see the scene of Rin's death, and 'happened' to see it at that exact moment.

"Rin, Obito."

Might Guy was also somewhat dazed. He clenched his fists and stared intently at Six Paths Madara, saying, "The next time I burn my youth, I will kick your head off!!!!"

Might Guy was furious. Both Rin and Obito were his comrades, and one of them had died because of this guy.

Now, the still-living Obito had fallen into darkness because of the other's plan. How could Might Guy not be enraged?

"..."

Naruto didn't speak. He looked at the angry and pained expression on Obito's face in the video, and at Six Paths Madara's rather hideous face.

For some reason, the image of Sasuke's death flashed through Naruto's mind.

Because back in the Land of Waves, during the fight against Haku, Naruto had seen Sasuke seemingly die.

It was also at that time that Naruto grew. He didn't want Sasuke to die, so the Nine-Tailed power within him erupted.

Now, looking at Obito, who shared many similarities with himself, falling into darkness because of this guy and becoming an existence that disrupted the Ninja World...

Empathizing slightly, Naruto felt his heart ache, so he said calmly in his mind, "Kurama, we must kill him!"

This was the first time Naruto wanted to kill someone.

Although as a Ninja, he should have had this resolve long ago, now Naruto truly wanted to defeat and kill Six Paths Madara.

"Yeah, that's right. This guy especially cannot be let off." Kurama also nodded slightly at this moment. Looking at Uchiha Madara, he said very seriously, "However, you're too weak right now. Master my power first, then go participate in the Chunin Exams before talking about this."

The Chunin Exams were about to begin, and Kurama didn't want Naruto's ranking to be too low, so he simply wanted the boy to master the Nine-Tails Mode before fighting.

"I need to become even stronger."

Naruto nodded slightly. He felt Kurama was right. To defeat Six Paths Madara, he had to become stronger, and the Chunin Exams were one path to that strength.

"Sigh." Jiraiya let out a deep sigh.

From the video, his disciple Nagato was Madara's pawn, and Obito was also a pawn. This self-exposure was actually a good thing.

Because although the multiverse projection was accessible to relatively few Ninjas, those with names and reputations had more or less obtained it.

He believed that Obito and Nagato, currently hidden in the Akatsuki Organization, had already seen Six Paths Madara's plan and true face. He hoped they would disband the Akatsuki on the spot.

If that wasn't possible, even becoming a mercenary organization would be fine, as long as they stopped trying to destroy the Ninja World.

On the other side, within the Akatsuki Organization.

"Ah, it's over." White Zetsu said those words with a look of despair.

"..."

Black Zetsu didn't know what to say at this point. Uchiha Madara, why did you have to reveal your plan at that time?!

He had originally been confident that he could stabilize Obito and have him continue the Eye of the Moon Plan, but now it was completely impossible.

'I'll have to use Edo Tensei. The nature of the plan has completely changed now.'

Black Zetsu frowned slightly. He had wanted to play it safe, letting Obito and Nagato develop slowly before reviving Madara.

Now he could only use Edo Tensei to revive Madara first. Black Zetsu knew Obito's personality; seeing this, the man would likely come looking for him immediately.

"Madara really is ruthless. This move... directly turned an originally kind youth into an existence that started a war."

Deidara commented with some emotion. Looking at the'story' of Six Paths Madara and Obito, he said with some repulsion, "Although this move of his was beautiful, it's not artistic at all."

Sasori let out a cold sneer and spoke, "The legendary Uchiha Madara seems to be just another lunatic for his own goals. He's no different from us."

Like Deidara, although Six Paths Madara's move was brilliant, even they felt that Madara doing such a thing was somewhat beneath his status.

But considering he was near death at the time, his urgent desire to find a successor was understandable.

"Itachi-san, what do you think?"

Seeing his current superior being screwed over so badly by Six Paths Madara, Kisame remained as calm as ever.

Because he didn't care about the Eye of the Moon Plan. He was a pure Ninja; as long as he found someone worth serving, he would sacrifice everything, including his life.

"Me?" Uchiha Itachi looked at Six Paths Madara and Obito in the video and said calmly, "This is the Uchiha curse."

"Curse?"

Pain was puzzled. He looked at Uchiha Itachi and asked calmly, "How so?"

"The Sharingan is inherently like this." Uchiha Itachi felt a sense of empathy. He slightly closed his eyes and said indifferently, "The deeper the love, once the loved one dies, the original love transforms into intense negative emotions. That is how the Mangekyo Sharingan is born."

"Obito saw Kakashi kill Rin with his own hands, evolving from a Two-Tomoe Sharingan to a Mangekyo Sharingan. I can probably imagine how much Pain he was in at that time."

"With him like that, I wouldn't be surprised by anything he does."

Pain didn't speak. He seemed as if he had frozen up.

"Pain?" Konan also vaguely sensed something was wrong. Why had Pain stopped talking?

At this time, he should have given a casual 'Mn' and then continued to remain silent.

But he didn't say a word. Had something happened on Nagato's end?

In the Naruto World, Hidden Rain Village.

"HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!! MADARA!!!!!"

Uchiha Obito laughed madly. A terrifying Chakra erupted from his body, and the Three-Tomoe Sharingan in his eyes spun wildly.

Hatred! Madness! Murderous intent! All sorts of negative emotions appeared on Obito.

Obito, who had originally intended to comfort Nagato and continue the Eye of the Moon Plan, completely snapped at this moment.

"Obito?"

Besides Deva Path Pain, the other five Pains surrounded Obito. For a moment, they actually didn't know what to say.

Nagato could roughly understand the other's feelings, but could he please calm down? This level of Chakra was about to destroy the walls.

"Black Zetsu! White Zetsu! Madara!!! You all deserve to die!!!!"

Originally, Obito had resented the video creator for exposing him, but now he was very grateful to the creator. Now, he was going to kill someone!!!!!

Black Zetsu and White Zetsu must die!!!

"Woom—!!!"

Obito jumped directly off the high tower. He activated Kamui and disappeared into mid-air. Nagato wanted to manipulate the Pains to stop him, but unfortunately, he couldn't stop him at all.

"Sigh." Nagato sighed quietly, his expression looking somewhat helpless.
