Extra 1: If there was Ugetsuki during the creation period (Twenty-seven)
Uchiha Izuna was secretly complaining in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.
But I couldn't help but have some strange thoughts that 'that guy is a bit evil'. Otherwise, how could he say it and then I really saw it?
Just thinking of what Shisui said, he even made appropriate expressions of 'warning' and 'questioning'.
He wanted to see what this thing wanted to do to Uchiha.
Black Zetsu, who transformed into a black shadow and pretended to be the 'consciousness of the Uchiha Shrine', did not mind the other party's behavior - it was normal for Uchiha Izuna to behave like this.
At the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good to be vigilant. Being vigilant is good, but being able to communicate is a good start.
Black Zetsu is also feeling miserable.
For a thousand years, the 'Great Cause' had been his alone.
Although White Zetsu can be used a little, he has no brains and his uses are always very limited. Most of the time he has to go to the scene in person to figure out how to act.
Although his focus is on Uchiha and Senju - the most important thing is Uchiha.
But the other ninjas can't relax either.
If the ninja world is not in chaos, how can he take advantage of the situation to achieve his goals?
After waiting for nearly a thousand years, the Uchiha and Senju finally worked together and produced people who could open the Mangekyō Sharingan and use Wood Release, basically meeting the prerequisite for resurrecting the mother.
He just wanted to prepare quickly and get the stage ready in advance. What if he could succeed with some effort?
Who would have thought that just because I hadn't paid attention to this side for a while, a third force would pop up?
And there are also the additions of Hashirama Senju and Uchiha Madara.
And it's not just the ninjas near the Land of Fire who have joined, they're just all coming together to take on missions... You can't say that ninjas are not allowed to take on missions across regions, right?
Black Zetsu was paralyzed on the spot.
How can he get involved in this?
He observed Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama for several days but couldn't find any suitable entry point.
He is indeed very good at sowing discord.
But the prerequisite is that there is an opportunity to take advantage of.
Now both of them were in the heat of the moment, there was no room for him to intervene.
If you get involved at this time, even if you succeed in sowing discord, it would be good if you don't get exposed.
In desperation, he could only choose to start with the people around the two people.
Compared to Qianshou
Tobirama, Uchiha Izuna, who has always disapproved of Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama being close, and who loves Uchiha more than anyone else, is the best candidate.
It was just that the timing was not right, so he could only act out this scene without any preparation...
Fortunately, although the other party was skeptical, he was still willing to communicate with me.
Maybe it's because he has been dissatisfied with the Senju for a long time. In this way, as long as he firmly states his position and shows that he and the Uchiha are in the same boat... then taking him down will only take a few minutes, right?
Don’t humans often say that as long as we have a common enemy, we can be friends?
Black Zetsu felt that his logic was perfect. After his thoughts became clear, he spoke diligently:
"You may not believe me, but you must believe the Uchiha Stele, right? I am the consciousness of the stele, the consciousness awakened by the Uchiha worshipers over the past thousand years."
"You said you are the consciousness of the stone tablet? Then why have you never appeared in any records?"
Uchiha Izuna crossed his arms and stared at each other with narrowed eyes.
If Yu Yue was there, he would find that his action at this time was the legendary "Let me see how else you can edit" special posture.
It’s a pity that she was not there, and the only one facing Uchiha Izuna was Black Zetsu, an old antique who had no idea of fashion.
He only interpreted the other party's actions as vigilance and dissatisfaction with himself, so he performed even more attentively:
"That's because I didn't have enough power before. I could only stay inside the stone tablet. Although I could sense some movements from the outside world, I couldn't show up in front of you, let alone communicate."
Afraid that Uchiha Izuna would not believe him, he also specifically mentioned the names of some Uchiha ancestors - some of whom died young, and would not be known to anyone other than the Uchiha clan.
"These are the ancestors of the Uchiha clan. There must be records of them in the clan. You can check them out yourself."
——Even this is correct?
The voice of Uchiha Shisui saying "he has been keeping an eye on the Uchiha for so many years" immediately appeared in Uchiha Izuna's mind.
Naturally, the following sentence 'I can't bear to see Uchiha doing well' also came to mind.
If one thing can correspond to another, it can be called a coincidence, but if two things in a row correspond to each other, it can be called a coincidence.
What about the last three or four items? Will there be any difference?
And the timing of his appearance was just too coincidental.
If it is really the consciousness of the Uchiha Stele, shouldn't it have appeared earlier and instructed all the Uchiha members on how to
Open your eyes and suppress the Thousand Hands?
It came neither earlier nor later, but just at this critical juncture when Uchiha and Senju were cooperating and heading towards another future.
Who would believe that there is no trick involved?
But Uchiha Izuna didn't show it on his face. He still stared at Black Zetsu with that stern expression of 'Just continue and I'll just watch your performance'.
Black Zetsu, who was performing with all his might, naturally didn't know that his story had already been told by Uchiha Shisui, and he continued to speak diligently and earnestly.
"So you have to believe me. I will never hurt you."
"I was born under the worship of the Uchiha clan, and I can't express my gratitude enough. This time I appeared in front of you because I finally gathered enough strength, and I also sensed the arrival of you, an Uchiha. If I really wanted to do something bad, I would definitely hide and act in secret, right?"
Although Black Zetsu has no mouth, after talking for so long, he felt like his lips were about to be worn out.
But Uchiha Izuna listened for such a long time without any reaction, which made him somewhat embarrassed - as if he was performing a one-man show.
"So... can you trust me now?"
Black Zetsu felt that it was about time.
Although ninjas are suspicious, they are devoted to their family.
This can be seen from the fact that no matter how outrageous the situation is, they will follow the training and rules at home.
If you bring up the stone tablet of Uchiha Shrine to prove your point, it will naturally make people feel that you are a member of the same clan, right?
...believe in what?
You are a guy whose punctuation is suspicious?
Faced with Black Zetsu's questions, Uchiha Izuna was stunned for a while, but he was an elite in the ninja world after all, so he quickly adjusted his state.
"I will look into the matter of our ancestors, but anyone who has read the Uchiha profile will know that."
Uchiha Izuna tried hard to play the role of a 'warned but attracted' young leader.
"This only proves that you understand Uchiha, but it doesn't prove that you are the consciousness of the stone tablet. Legend has it that this stone tablet was left by an immortal thousands of years ago. As the consciousness of the stone tablet, you must be a little different, right?"
Black Zetsu: I do have one, but I can’t show it.
Although Black Zetsu has always looked down on humans, since he chose to use humans, he naturally understands humans' taboos.
For example, if he said that he could merge into other people's bodies, then
The person in front of you will be alert.
He could only pick out a less shocking ability and talk about it first:
"Because, because I was born from the consciousness of the stone tablet, I can pass through walls and escape underground."
"Then any ninja who is good at earth escape can do it."
Uchiha Izuna frowned.
After spending such a long time with Yu Yue, he had learned some of her ways.
No matter whether it is actually good or not, just suppress it first.
"You are the consciousness of the stone tablet left by the immortal. Are you only capable of things that these ninjas can do?"
Black Zetsu:?
This is not right.
Black Zetsu, who has always been the one to deceive people, was choked by the question.
Uchiha Izuna's words were not finished yet.
"You don't feel ashamed at all, even to this extent?"
Shame? Why should I be ashamed?
Black Zetsu's face almost cracked.
What are they talking about? Why do I feel like I don’t understand?
"No matter what you say, it is the consciousness of the stone tablet left by the immortal. Are you satisfied with this? Are you worthy of your status?"
"I……"
Why should I be worthy of it? I am not the will of that stone tablet at all!
But the lie had been told, and no matter how unwilling Black Zetsu was, he had no choice but to nod and admit it.
"yes……"
Uchiha Izuna: "Don't you have any pursuits?"
“What should I pursue?”
"Develop your power so that it can be put to good use. Don't forget, you are the stone tablet of the Uchiha Shrine. If you tell others about it, it represents the reputation of the Uchiha."
Uchiha Izuna continued, imitating Ugetsu's words.
"So you believe that I am the will of the stone tablet?"
Black Zetsu tried hard to grasp the key point from the words.
"That……"
"I didn't say that."
Uchiha Izuna had a look of disgust on his face.
"As the best among the ninja clans, how could there be someone as useless as you?"
Black Zetsu: “I…”
"If you want me to admit it, you can't rely on you saying a few words or reading a few names."
Uchiha Izuna's voice was cold, and coupled with his already stern face, the oppressive feeling it brought would have frightened an ordinary person to tears.
Black Zetsu never took ninjas seriously, so of course he wouldn't be intimidated by his aura. However, he felt a little less confident because he was caught off guard.
"Then how can you trust me?"
——How can I possibly believe someone like you who can't stand seeing Uchiha do well?
But as he just said, covert actions are the most difficult to guard against.
Rather than exposing him directly and letting him escape and act in secret, it would be better to keep him hanging. After all, I have Shisui's reminder and I am on guard.
What if someone accidentally gets caught?
Since this guy was able to keep an eye on Uchiha for such a long time without anyone noticing, he definitely wouldn't just have the ability to walk through walls and escape underground as he said.
Plus that sweet talk.
Sure enough, it is safest to keep an eye on it yourself.
So he cleared his throat.
"That depends on your performance."
"Performance?"
Black Zetsu was confused at first, then he was shocked.
Good performance!
For Black Zetsu, what he fears is not being forced to work, but not being forced to work!
After all, as long as you are sent to do something, connections will be established.
It is best to do the dirty work so that you can catch the opponent's weakness. As long as you have the weakness in your hands, you will not be afraid of not being able to pull the person on board your boat.
Just like he had done countless times in the past.
Thinking of this, Black Zetsu even became a little impatient:
"What do you want me to do?"
Espionage? Assassination? Or sabotage of the alliance?
He is very good at these!
"Then you should..."
Uchiha Izuna is stuck.
He really had no idea what he could get this guy to do.
After all, it looks suspicious and dangerous no matter how you look at it...
No, that's not right.
There is a job he should be able to do.
"Go take the job."
"……What?"
"We just need to find a way to get employers to give us all the work."
"Of course, the projects that we Uchiha are involved in must have the best and most missions."
Uchiha Izuna raised his chin and put on an arrogant expression.
"Only in this way can we prove that we Uchiha are truly number one in the ninja world."
This is a bit of an exaggeration, but considering that he is the younger brother of the clan leader Uchiha Madara, and the second strongest among the Uchiha clan... there is no problem at all.
Uchiha is like this.Jpg
"this……"
Black Zetsu was dumbfounded.
He has lived for a thousand years, but has never done this kind of hard work.
Shouldn't the ninjas have done this themselves ?
Facing his silence, Uchiha Izuna raised an eyebrow:
"Do you want to do it?"
"……Do!"
Black Zetsu gritted his teeth and agreed.
Isn’t it just asking people to hand in all their work here? How difficult can it be!
If there is no one here to do it, you can't blame him if you lose face!!
