Black Zetsu really didn't expect that Obito would come up with such a terrible idea.
He wants to hold back Senju Tobirama?
What a joke.
Not to mention that the Akatsuki organization hasn't officially started capturing tailed beasts yet; it still needs to stay hidden.
Just looking at the lineup on Konoha's side, it's not something Black Zetsu can handle.
The Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama; the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi; the Fifth Hokage, Jiraiya; and Orochimaru, known as Cold Lord.
Any one of these four would be too much for Black Zetsu to defeat.
Yes, he is almost immune to all physical and ninjutsu attacks.
But he doesn't have any attack ability himself.
Plus, he's somewhat afraid of sealing techniques. If he really goes after Tobirama, he'd most likely get sealed.
The Four Symbols Seal and the Eight Trigrams Seal are manageable; he can gradually wear down those seals with his own abilities to break free.
But if it's the Reaper Death Seal, then he's really done for.
"Damn Obito, just wait. Once I save Mom, I'll make sure to tear you into pieces."
Just as Black Zetsu was secretly cursing Obito, a stunning figure appeared outside the Hokage building, instantly grabbing his attention.
"What? Is that Uzumaki Mito?"
Seeing this figure, Black Zetsu rubbed his eyes hard.
After confirming he wasn't imagining things, he began to feel conflicted.
Clearly, Uzumaki Mito's appearance was definitely abnormal.
She, like Senju Tobirama, was someone who shouldn't exist in this era.
So, there were definitely things happening here that it didn't know about.
At that moment, it wanted to follow Mito and see where she was going.
Maybe it could find clues about their appearance in this era.
But Obito had gone to follow Kakashi, and if it left too, there would be no one watching the Hokage Building.
When Obito came back and saw he was gone, would he be even more sure that he was being played?
To prove his innocence and prevent the relationship between him and Obito from worsening, which could affect their future plans, Black Zetsu could only choose to stay put and keep an eye on the Hokage Building.
Before long, Obito returned with a strange expression.
Seeing him back, Black Zetsu immediately excitedly said, "Obito, you won't believe who I just saw."
Looking at Kakashi entering the Hokage Building, Obito replied impatiently, "Zetsu, you should call me Madara. And I don't have time to play guessing games. If you have something to say, say it quickly; if not, forget it."
"I saw Uzumaki Mito."
"Who is Uzumaki Mito?"
"She's the wife of the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama."
"Is that so? What does it matter to me that she's the First Hokage's wife? Don't tell me you like her. Tsk, I never expected you, this dark blob, to have such tastes. Wait, you're Madara's will, so does that mean Madara likes Uzumaki Mito?"
Saying this, Obito seemed to discover something important and continued with a strange laugh, "Let me guess, Uchiha Madara liked Uzumaki Mito, and then Uzumaki Mito married Senju Hashirama. Madara, feeling disgruntled, fought Hashirama fiercely, but in the end, he lost to Hashirama. Finally, he used Izanagi to fake his death and escaped from Konoha in a sorry state. Haha, I'm a little logic genius!"
"…"
Obito's words left Black Zetsu speechless.
It really wanted to say to Obito, "What nonsense are you talking about? That steel-hearted guy Madara liking Uzumaki Mito?
Why not say he likes Senju Hashirama instead? That would be more believable."
Taking a deep breath, Black Zetsu repeatedly told itself: Don't get angry, he's just a tool. Once Mother is revived, he will be useless. Don't get angry, no need to be mad at a dead man.
After calming down for a while, Black Zetsu finally said, "Besides being Hashirama's wife, Uzumaki Mito is also the first Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails."
"Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails? What does that have to do with me? Don't tell me the Nine-Tails is sealed inside her. Don't joke around; if the Nine-Tails is in her, then what's inside Naruto Uzumaki? A husky?"
"…"
This was also a strange point for Black Zetsu.
With its perception ability, it indeed sensed the presence of the Nine-Tails from Uzumaki Mito.
However, just as Obito said, if the Nine-Tails is in her, then what is inside Naruto?
Whether it's the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama or the first Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails, Uzumaki Mito, both of their appearances in this era are very bizarre.
If this matter isn't clarified and dealt with, then last time it was Senju Tobirama who was resurrected, and now it's Uzumaki Mito.
Who will be resurrected next? Senju Hashirama?
If Senju Hashirama really comes back, will its plan continue?
It certainly doesn't believe Nagato can be a match for this god of ninjas.
Thinking of this, Black Zetsu encouraged Obito, saying, "Obito, just because I can't enter the Hokage's office doesn't mean you can't. Why don't you try sneaking in and listen to what they're saying?"
"Black Zetsu, do you think I'm an idiot?"
"Ah?"
"What 'ah'? I don't have your level of stealth; if I show up in the Hokage's office, they will definitely notice me."
"Then you can still use Kamui to escape, right?"
"Escape? Have you ever seen Uchiha Madara run away?"
"…No."
"Then that's settled. I'm Madara now; running away would damage my reputation."
What the hell.
You're Obito, not Madara.
At this moment, Black Zetsu was genuinely feeling a bit broken and could hardly maintain even the most basic expression.
To avoid being discovered by Obito, Black Zetsu had no choice but to burrow underground.
"Hehe."
Watching Black Zetsu disappear underground, Obito let out a cold laugh.
Did he really think Obito was stupid?
Back when he attacked Konoha and started the Nine-Tails' Rampage, he thought his Kamui could easily defeat Minato Namikaze. In the end, he was the one who got nearly killed.
That battle taught him that Kamui wasn't invincible.
Inside the Hokage building were dangerous people, including Jiraiya, the teacher of Minato, and the Third Hokage, and even Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju.
With so many dangerous individuals inside, unless Obito had lost his mind, no one would be foolish enough to enter.
"They're coming out."
After a while, Black Zetsu adjusted his mindset and reappeared in front of Obito.
Just then, the Third Hokage and the others walked out of the Hokage building.
"I knew I wasn't seeing things. The one at the front with white hair and wearing the tengu mask is definitely Tobirama Senju."
"What are they going to do?"
"Not sure."
"Let's follow them and see."
"Okay, I also want to know why so many people are moving together."
