-------------------------------------------------------------

The sun was warm, and birds flew freely among the branches, chirping about something unknown.

At this moment, amidst the peaceful forest, a soft chuckle suddenly broke the silence.

"Is that senior going to become my enemy?" As the chuckle echoed, Aizen, standing on a flat piece of ground, smirked slightly, his eyes filled with amusement as he gazed at White Zetsu.

White Zetsu remained silent for a moment before nodding slowly and speaking softly, "Madara said so. After all, Nagato is currently under control in Las Noches, and that's something Madara cannot tolerate. The Rinnegan's ability to control life and death is not something Madara would ever give up to anyone else."

After hearing this, Aizen smiled quietly and chuckled, "To think someone in such a broken body could still harbor such ambitions. I must admit, the Uchiha clan's seniors are truly impressive. Too bad he couldn't face death with the same courage."

At this point, Aizen's eyes flickered, a sharp light flashing as he spoke softly, "In that case, let's go along with his plan. After all, that man holds secrets we cannot easily uncover. Without him, it would be hard to reveal the mystery hidden in the history of the ninja world. In some ways, we are very similar."

Hearing this, White Zetsu was stunned, stammering in shock, "But… but, Lord Aizen, Madara's plan is to kill you! How can we allow that?"

Seeing White Zetsu's astonishment, Aizen's lips curled slightly into a smile, and he chuckled, "Is that such a difficult thing?"

As Aizen's teasing tone echoed, a shadow suddenly appeared beside him at a speed too fast for the eye to see.

"Lord Aizen, watch out!"

White Zetsu's eyes narrowed in shock as he urgently shouted.

But it was too late. The shadow's hand, crackling with black lightning, pierced through Aizen's chest.

"Zzzz—"

The sharp sound of electric currents echoed through the forest, and Aizen, whose heart had been pierced, suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He stared in disbelief at the attacker and said in a deep voice, "Shino… it's you!"

At this moment, the figure's appearance gradually became clear in White Zetsu's eyes—an indifferent face, long black hair, and a pair of blood-red eyes marked with three black blades. There was no doubt about his identity—Uchiha Shino.

Aizen, now pale, stared hard at the cold Uchiha Shino. As if realizing something, he turned his gaze towards White Zetsu, who stood frozen in shock, and rasped, "You... you've teamed up with him, Zetsu!"

White Zetsu's body trembled, unable to believe the scene before him, though everything was so real.

As Lord Aizen's voice, filled with despair, echoed in his ears, Zetsu panicked.

'But… I was supposed to serve Lord Aizen, so how did things end up like this!? How could this happen!?'

"N-no, Lord Aizen!"

White Zetsu stammered, his face pale. Then he glared at the cold Shino, his amber eyes flashing with fury, and growled, "Uchiha Shino, stop this at once!"

With that, he charged at Shino, who stood there indifferently.

Seeing this, Shino's eyes gleamed with disdain. The black lightning that had pierced Aizen's heart suddenly intensified!

"Zzzzz!"

The black lightning erupted like a blade, tearing through Aizen's body from the inside!

Aizen's expression froze, his face turning deathly pale.

With a faint smirk of disdain on Shino's lips, Aizen's body slowly collapsed backward.

Seeing this, White Zetsu's pupils shrank, and it felt as if something inside him had shattered.

Memories of past conversations flashed through his mind in an instant.

"You're quite the strange one. It's hard to believe someone like you managed to survive…"

"Relax. I know this isn't your true body, so I don't even have the slightest interest in attacking you. However, for easier communication, I'll restrict your movements first."

"Bakudō #61. Rikujōkōrō!"

"I'm very interested in the person behind you. If possible, tell me his name."

"Haha, Sōsuke… That man's name is not something a youngster like you can casually know!"

"Is that so? It seems you are quite loyal to the one behind you."

"…"

"Oh? It seems you don't even understand your own thoughts. Well, let's end the conversation here. I look forward to our next meeting. By the way, what's your name?"

"Zetsu, huh? Interesting…"

"So, you've caught me again, Sosuke. What a coincidence."

"Zetsu, it's been nice meeting you, but allow me to introduce myself. I am Aizen Sosuke. Don't forget it."

"…You've changed."

"Strange? Is that so? Anyway, let's skip the small talk. Can you take your seat? I'm not used to looking up to others."

"You… really have changed."

"You still won't reveal who's behind you?"

"I've told you many times—no way!"

"I recall you weren't that loyal to the one behind you. I don't believe I'm mistaken."

"…"

"Your existence is fascinating. Have you ever considered pursuing greater power? I can give that to you."

"You? Against the person behind me? You don't even have the right to resist, Aizen."

"You mean Uchiha Madara… Uchiha Izuna… or perhaps, Senju Hashirama?"

"How… how could you know!?"

"This is something anyone could deduce with a little thought."

"… You're terrifying, Aizen."

"Haha, you're the first person I've been patient with. Think carefully about what I've said. If you ever doubt yourself, I can give you the power to break free."

"You… Fine, I get it. We'll talk about this later."

As these memories of conversations played out in White Zetsu's mind, an unfamiliar emotion—rage—welled up inside him, almost uncontrollable.

"Boom!"

The plant-like vines on his body suddenly transformed into sharp, hard blades, wrapping around him defensively.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

His feet slammed into the ground, leaving craters with each step as he charged toward Uchiha Shino.

"Uchiha Shino, die!"

His amber eyes now looked like those of a wild beast, and his body was engulfed in a murky yellow chakra as he hurled a massive punch toward Uchiha Shino.

Facing the terrifying punch, Shino suddenly smiled and casually extended his hand.

"Boom!"

A shockwave of white energy rippled outward, and White Zetsu's beast-like punch was effortlessly blocked.

A magnetic voice softly reached his ears.

"Enough, Zetsu. Open your eyes and see clearly."
