Chapter 499 Confirming the Information, Obito's Great Mission
The Third Battle of Konoha, Uchiha Naga Shrine.
"Well, have you noticed any changes? Sasuke, Obito, Kakashi." In front of the brightly lit stone tablet, the Fourth Hokage turned to the three men with bloodshot eyes and asked nervously.
Behind him were Ishikawa and Nohara Rin.
"It has appeared. The legend of the Sage of Six Paths mentions his mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki, and his two sons, Indra and Ashura." Sasuke hesitated, his right eye flashing with a six-pointed star, causing the Fourth Minato's expression to change drastically.
Is Kaguya Otsutsuki, whom Black Zetsu mentioned, the mother of the Sage of Six Paths?
"And there's more! The battle for the inheritance of the Ninja Clan between Indra, who inherited the Sage's Eyes, and Ashura, who inherited the Sage's Body, eventually turned into a brotherly war of reincarnation that caused internal strife! The Uchiha and Senju are descendants of Indra and Ashura!!" Obito, who also witnessed everything, gaped in astonishment, never expecting the truth behind the stone tablet to be like this.
No wonder the interstitial cells could suppress the side effects of the kaleidoscope effect; now I understand...
The so-called "myriad phenomena" refers to the gathering of the powers of the Senju and Uchiha clans, ultimately leading to a return to one's ancestral roots and the inheritance of the Six Paths.
"The Sage of Six Paths left instructions on it, advising the reincarnations of Indra's chakra to stop the endless cycle of war. Furthermore, there are legends about the Ten-Tails on it," the Fifth Hokage Kakashi added, making the Fourth Hokage's eyes light up.
"Ten-Tails, what does the text say about the Ten-Tails and Kaguya?"
Everything else is secondary; these are the key points.
"A being from beyond the heavens. The Sage of Six Paths said that Kaguya Otsutsuki was a being from beyond the heavens, who came to the ninja world with some kind of mission, but he didn't know what it was. As for the Ten-Tails? It was a tool that Kaguya brought with her, a terrifying being that harvested the ninja world's resources to condense its chakra into a fruit."
Before the Fifth Hokage could speak, Sasuke quickly explained, then frowned, "According to what's said above, the Ten-Tails is a beast with an eye that brought the world to destruction. Therefore, the Sage of Six Paths broke with his mother and sealed the Ten-Tails to save the world."
"But Black Zetsu wants us to collect the tailed beasts and become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, that is, the second Sage of Six Paths! He said that only in this way will he tell us the follow-up information to save the world."
"So, who is telling the truth about this information?"
"Heh, it's possible that Black Zetsu is just lying to us. Didn't he say he was Kaguya's will? Reviving the Ten-Tails might be some kind of conspiracy!" Obito chuckled, expressing his opinion.
"But why would Black Zetsu do this?" Kakashi, the Fifth Hokage, frowned and shook his head in denial. "If showing us this would confirm that the Ten-Tails is the source of the disaster, then he wouldn't have bothered doing it!"
“That’s right, Kakashi.” The Fourth Hokage nodded with a smile, praising him generously. “Leaving aside the Ten-Tails and the Sage of Six Paths, you may have overlooked one thing: Kaguya’s mission!”
"Kaguya's mission!!" Instantly, everyone except Ishikawa was stunned for a moment, then their faces lit up with joy as if they had been enlightened.
That's right, this is the only secret in Black Zetsu's heart.
Aside from this, they already know all the other information, and it's impossible for them to revive the Ten-Tails and put the world in danger!
"So, what exactly is the reason? Is it possible that this is also a conspiracy by Black Zetsu to revive the Ten-Tails?" Seeing the others expressing their opinions, Obito secretly glanced at Rin, not wanting to be outdone.
Although he didn't know what he was saying, as long as he could outdo Ishikawa, that was enough!
"Well, whatever the conspiracy or trickery, we have confirmed the existence of Kaguya Otsutsuki. This shows that the world is not as simple as we imagined, and there may be unimaginable terrifying beings behind it."
"Then let's start with Kaguya. Let's find Kaguya's palace first, and then we can talk about the rest." Ishikawa suggested, a strange glint in his eyes, to raise everyone's vigilance.
The threat from the Otsutsuki clan is imminent; we must begin preparations now…
"But Black Zetsu said that to find Kaguya's palace, one must be the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki with the Rinnegan. Does that mean we have to collect the Tailed Beasts and revive the Ten-Tails first?" Obito questioned, implying that this was falling into Black Zetsu's trap of reviving the Ten-Tails.
But if one doesn't become the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki, one can't find Kaguya's palace. Isn't this a vicious cycle?
Everyone looked troubled, and for a moment they were caught in a dilemma!
"Hehe, the icy otherworld that Black Zetsu mentioned is basically something similar to the Kamui dimension. So Obito, perhaps we have another way to handle this..." Ishikawa gave a wicked smile, making Obito's scalp tingle and giving him a vague sense of foreboding.
"Ishikawa, you mean to say?" On the other side, the Fifth Hokage suddenly realized something, his face lighting up with surprise and understanding. The Fourth Hokage next to him also reacted and looked at Obito with hopeful eyes.
"You'll probably have to work hard this time, Obito."
Instantly, everyone understood and turned to smiles, causing Obito to take a step back, his face turning deathly pale.
"No, no way! My Kamui can only go to the Kamui dimension, how could what you're saying be possible?"
"Why not?" Ishikawa directly denied Obito's attempt to back down. "The so-called ice and snow other world is, in essence, a small world that Kaguya opened a spatial portal to and attached to our world. If Kaguya could find it, so can you. Although it may take some time and effort, we can find it by searching one by one."
What a joke! When Obito was redeemed and relied on the dual Kamui to defeat Kaguya, he found the other five small worlds through the interconnected Ame no Mikasa.
Although Obito is not in Kaguya's Amenominaka and cannot be found through the network cable, Sasuke with the Rinnegan was not there either, but in the end, they still found him!
"But I reckon I'd go blind before I even find my eyes using that needle-in-a-haystack method..." Obito's last desperate struggle; this was no easy task.
Seeing this, a resolute glint flashed in the Fifth Generation's eyes, and he stepped forward, saying, "I will give you this Mangekyou Sharingan, so that your left eye can become the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan."
"Uh, no, that's not what I meant." Upon hearing this, Obito hurriedly shouted and stepped back, his face showing no joy but rather a resentful look.
Damn it, Kakashi, don't cause trouble right now!
"Teacher, there's really no need for that." Seeing that the Fifth Hokage was about to offer his left eye, Ishikawa quickly stopped him with a smile, which made Obito instantly relieved and happy.
But before his smile could fully open, Ishikawa continued calmly, "If you're worried about going blind due to insufficient chakra and eye power, Tobi can temporarily use it on Obito. Anyway, this is a long-term mission, so there's no rush. If you feel tired, just take a break."
Obito's face darkened upon hearing this, especially when he thought of Tobi's talkative nature, which made him even more resistant. Just as he was about to refuse, he saw Nohara Rin suddenly turn her head and blink her big eyes.
"This is a mission to save the world. Obito, I'm counting on you..."
Looking at Rin Nohara, whose eyes were full of gentle expectation, Obito's words of refusal stuck in his throat and he could no longer utter them.
"Damn it, there's absolutely no way to refuse in this situation! I'll risk it all, this mission is mine, Obito!"
