Chapter 291: Chapter 291: Kabuto Wanted to Use Uchiha Madara to Intimidate Everyone, But It Didn't Work
Although Young Obito knew Kabuto meant well, moreover, during the Fourth Great Ninja War, Kabuto's Edo Tensei had allowed many people to see those who had passed away and fulfilled their dreams.
But Young Obito still mocked, "I don't need it. There's more than one method of resurrection that you know, and besides, Edo Tensei isn't true resurrection. I have no interest in it."
Kabuto pushed the dean's glasses he had just put on and said, "Is that so? That's really a pity. Looks like, there really are many things in the ninja world that I don't know. For example, your real age, it seems inconsistent with your appearance, right? Are you also an old monster who has lived a long time?"
Kabuto couldn't help glancing again at Rin beside Young Obito, thinking this little girl probably wasn't simple either.
Young Obito had no interest in going in circles with Kabuto and spoke bluntly, "That has nothing to do with you. Continue with your plan. We have other things to do."
Seeing this, Kabuto tried to save a bit of face for himself, "But I still have one Edo Tensei body that I want to show you. I hope when you see it, you won't be too surprised."
After speaking, he slapped the ground with one hand and chanted, "Summoning Jutsu: Edo Tensei!"
A coffin slowly rose up.
The coffin lid fell off, revealing inside a man with spiky hair and wearing red battle armor, Uchiha Madara.
However, contrary to his expectations, the crowd did not show shocked expressions; no one seemed surprised.
Even Young Obito couldn't help but say, "Madara, you're sleeping really deeply, huh. Well, once you're dead, you don't have that kind of awareness anymore. No matter how strong you were in life, after death, everyone's the same."
Yakushi Kabuto suddenly wondered if there was something wrong with his brain.
Inside that coffin was Uchiha Madara. That Ashura of the ninja world while alive. If not for a chance encounter, he couldn't have obtained Madara's flesh and cells.
Uchiha Madara was his most prized work, able to perfectly display Madara's full strength from his prime.
However, the Obito who had once impersonated Madara, and those two children who looked about ten years old, weren't even slightly surprised?
They could even joke about it.
Kabuto could barely restrain himself from immediately restoring Madara's consciousness to force Young Obito to reorganize his words.
He couldn't help but say, "About this, don't you have anything you want to say?"
Old Obito, after all, had a broken spirit and wasn't as cheeky as Young Obito. He just calmly reminded, "This is indeed a very powerful force, but the stronger the power, the harder it is to control."
"I'll just remind you of one thing, Uchiha Madara can break free from the Edo Tensei technique on his own and no longer be under your control. Whether you believe it or not, that's the truth."
Yakushi Kabuto's eyes flickered. He didn't see any fear or dread on Obito's face, which meant Obito acknowledged Madara's power, but didn't care if Madara was truly revived.
In that case, there was no need for Obito to lie to him. This was truly a kind reminder.
Since even his final trump card didn't achieve the shocking effect he hoped for, he could only say, "I'll take note of that. Well then, you're busy, I'll take my leave."
After saying that, Yakushi Kabuto retracted the Edo Tensei coffin and vanished with a teleportation jutsu.
Seeing him leave, Rin couldn't help but say, "So that's what Kabuto looks like when he grows up. I really wish he hadn't become like this. He looks creepy and kind of scary."
Then, as if remembering something amusing, Rin's lips curved into a faint smile.
"But you guys are really bad, Obito. You just drove him off in anger."
Young Obito said, "Who told him to suddenly summon Madara in front of me? It gave me a fright."
Old Obito couldn't help but shake his head. Being with Rin, Young Obito was becoming more and more like how he used to be as a child.
Was he also yearning for this kind of life? Otherwise, why keep playing the Tobi persona all the time?
Just as the atmosphere among the group turned delicate, the expressions of both Obitos suddenly darkened.
Old Obito said, "Black Zetsu, since you're here, come out."
As soon as he said this, a Black Zetsu suddenly burrowed out from underground and stood beside Old Obito.
"So you noticed. I thought, at such close range, it'd be impossible for you not to feel anything."
Old Obito said calmly, "Black Zetsu, the matter I asked you to investigate, have you found anything?"
Black Zetsu grinned and said, "No, I only found that the Nine-Tails is on a moving island and is being protected by the Allied Shinobi Forces. As for the Eight-Tails, he's missing, and I don't know where he is now."
After speaking, Black Zetsu paused and looked toward Young Obito and Rin, "Aren't you going to introduce your new friends to me?"
Old Obito glanced at Black Zetsu, his expression unreadable, but his voice carried a hint of undeniable authority, "Haven't you already figured out their identities? After all, information like this is impossible to hide from you."
Black Zetsu didn't deny Obito's words and instead said, "Didn't expect you actually crossed into another timeline and brought back the Obito from that world. Are you planning to abandon the plan?"
Old Obito said coldly, "Black Zetsu, probing is meaningless. As the will of Madara, you should know that I've never wavered from the beginning."
"It's just that now I want to ask you, the flesh of Madara that Yakushi Kabuto obtained, was it provided by you?"
"Can I still trust you now?"
Black Zetsu honestly felt a bit wronged. That was all Kaguya's will. Black Zetsu's doing? What did it have to do with them, the White Zetsus?
Black Zetsu had been worried that Obito wouldn't resurrect Madara and wouldn't advance the plan properly, so he left a backup.
But he couldn't explain that, so he could only say, "Of course you can trust me. After all, we are comrades."
Old Obito said, "In that case, I'm giving you a new mission. Watch Sasuke, see what he's doing now. As for other matters, you don't need to concern yourself."
Black Zetsu laughed, "Alright, I'll get on it right away."
After speaking, his figure once again slowly sank into the ground.
Seeing this, Young Obito said, "He's probably going to report to Black Zetsu. But this is exactly the result I want. If those two Black Zetsus don't team up, how are we supposed to catch them both in one go?"
Old Obito said, "We've seen Yakushi Kabuto. It's time to go get the Rinnegan."
Young Obito nodded. The group briefly rested and then set off again.

[Konoha, Obito's Transmigrated World, in an Unknown Dark Corner]
Black Zetsu, who had received the report, was muttering to himself.
"Another world, huh? Didn't expect that the ninja world actually has a power that can allow people to travel through time and space. This power is quite high-level. Could it be left behind by an enemy of Mother?"
"Looks like I need to investigate this. Since the Obito from another timeline can come over, then could the me from another timeline do the same?"
"He must miss Mother too. My plan here is nearing its end. He'll definitely come and help me."
"Mother, I wonder, after you break the seal and see that you have one more son, will you be surprised?"
