Madara Uchiha walked step by step towards Shin. Nawaki and the other Kage, surprisingly, didn’t try to stop him.
“Leave this to Shin. We’ll deal with the others,” Nawaki said to Ōnoki and the rest.
“I’ll handle my former sensei. You guys take care of the others.” Ōnoki then charged towards the reanimated Second Tsuchikage.
Fighting his former teacher… one wonders if Ōnoki had some rebellious thoughts.
Actually, no. It was precisely because he knew how formidable his teacher was, Ōnoki chose to face him personally.
———
“Madara, it hasn’t been easy for you to be revived.”
Shin stood atop the Ten-Tails’ head, arms crossed, looking at Madara Uchiha.
“Indeed. Since I’ve been revived, we should proceed with our plan. Give me the Ten-Tails.”
Madara Uchiha squinted at Shin. If he could obtain the Ten-Tails without a fight, Madara Uchiha would certainly prefer that.
If he really had to fight Shin, Madara Uchiha had no confidence at all. Though he had reclaimed his full power, he was still no match for the previous Six Paths Obito.
Madara Uchiha wasn’t at the Six Paths level yet, but he was infinitely close. Unfortunately, even infinitely close, the gap between the two levels was still immense.
“Madara, that’s not very honest of you. With just a few words, you expect me to hand over the Ten-Tails? You’re dreaming a bit too big.”
Shin sneered. Madara Uchiha was dreaming of a beautiful thing.
“Then what do you want? Don’t forget our previous collaboration,” Madara Uchiha frowned.
“Collaboration? What collaboration? I’ve already forgotten about it. Let’s not mention that. But if you want the Ten-Tails, that’s fine. Just ask me ‘nicely’, and I’ll give it to you. How about that?”
Shin asked mockingly, trying to see if Madara Uchiha had the determination. Shin felt Madara Uchiha might not…
The reason was simple: Madara Uchiha was too proud. He would never beg Shin.
Though they hadn’t interacted much, Shin understood Madara Uchiha’s personality well.
“<Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!>”
As soon as Shin finished speaking, the grim-faced Madara Uchiha attacked him.
Beg Shin Uzumaki? What a joke!
“I knew you wouldn’t agree. But don’t get so worked up. We can discuss anything. What’s the meaning of attacking at the slightest disagreement?”
Shin looked at Madara Uchiha with displeasure. When the trees reached Shin, they were directly pushed away by Shin’s repulsive force.
“<Fire Release: Majestic Destroyer Flame!>”
Madara Uchiha used Fire Release, igniting the forest he had created, forming a sea of fire. The surrounding temperature rose rapidly due to the sea of fire.
“Do you think these petty tricks will work on me?”
Shin’s eyes flickered.
The sea of fire was cleared away by his repulsive force. Such petty tricks were only effective against average ninja.
Using them against him… Shin found it rather amusing.
Madara Uchiha was very calm. He also didn’t think he could cause any impact on Shin Uzumaki. This was just Madara Uchiha’s habitual probing.
“Actually, if you want the Ten-Tails, I can give it to you.”
Shin himself removed the Gracious Deity Gates that restricted the Ten-Tails, controlling the Ten-Tails to move towards Madara Uchiha.
However, facing the approaching Ten-Tails, Madara Uchiha, instead of being pleasantly surprised, warily distanced himself.
There’s definitely a scheme…
Madara Uchiha didn’t believe Shin Uzumaki would be so kind as to give him the Ten-Tails.
“Look, I’m giving you the Ten-Tails, and you don’t even dare to take it. Isn’t that too embarrassing? I’m even embarrassed for you—”
Shin smiled faintly and said.
“SHIN UZUMAKI, WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR PURPOSE???” Madara Uchiha asked Shin directly. He didn’t like to beat around the bush either.
“Heh, Madara, you really make me look down on you. The Ten-Tails is right in front of you, yet you don’t have the courage to take it.”
Shin sneered coldly. It seemed Madara Uchiha wasn’t as he had imagined.
“Hmph! I’m not someone you can look down on.”
Madara Uchiha snorted coldly. Though Shin Uzumaki’s strength was great… deep down, Madara was still extremely proud.
“Is that so? Then show me.”
Shin made a “Please” gesture. The Ten-Tails was a gift from Shin to Madara Uchiha. There were no traps at all.
Shin was still waiting for Madara Uchiha to become the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki and release Kaguya Ōtsutsuki. So there were no traps…
If there was any scheming, it was Black Zetsu scheming against Madara Uchiha, which had nothing to do with Shin.
“Lord Madara, let’s get the Ten-Tails first. Otherwise, we’ll be too passive,” Black Zetsu said to Madara Uchiha.
Black Zetsu couldn’t wait for Madara Uchiha to become the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki and quickly carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan.
Delays breed trouble…
Black Zetsu always felt that Shin Uzumaki knew too much, perhaps even his plans. So, it was better to complete the plan quickly.
As long as the plan was completed and his mother Kaguya Ōtsutsuki was released, even if Shin Uzumaki’s strength was greater, they could definitely handle it.
In Black Zetsu’s heart, his mother’s power was supreme. Absolutely no one could defeat his mother.
As for the Sage of Six Paths and his brother… those two were just despicable. Otherwise, they couldn’t have sealed their mother.
Compared to Black Zetsu, the filial son, the Sage of Six Paths and his brother were unfilial sons.
Madara Uchiha finally nodded. Black Zetsu was right. No matter what tricks Shin Uzumaki had up his sleeve, obtaining power was the only way to fight him.
“<Six Paths Ten-Tails Coffin Seal!>”
Using the technique to seal the Ten-Tails, he directly sealed the Ten-Tails within his own body. The process was very smooth, so smooth that even Madara Uchiha couldn’t quite believe it.
Looking at Shin Uzumaki, who hadn’t made any move, Madara Uchiha’s frown deepened.
“What exactly is your purpose?” Madara Uchiha asked Shin again.
All along, Madara Uchiha didn’t know what Shin Uzumaki’s purpose was.
Ruling the Shinobi world he had mentioned to Shin Uzumaki before… thinking about it now, it absolutely couldn’t attract Shin Uzumaki.
“Purpose? I have many purposes. But why do you care so much now? Aren’t you going to cast Infinite Tsukuyomi?” Shin said with a light chuckle.
Madara Uchiha was very cautious. Before figuring out Shin Uzumaki’s true purpose, he was a bit afraid to cast Infinite Tsukuyomi.
The other party didn’t seem to fear him using Infinite Tsukuyomi at all, and even seemed to be looking forward to it.
What exactly was Shin Uzumaki anticipating?
Madara Uchiha hesitated…
Black Zetsu was so angry. Since Shin Uzumaki is giving you this chance, what are you thinking so much for??
Hurry up and use Infinite Tsukuyomi!
