Chapter 263 Black Zetsu and Kabuto form an alliance
Therefore, prophecies are completely unreliable, especially those from half-baked figures like the White Snake Sage and the Toad Sage.
If Black Zetsu knew that the White Snake Sage thought he was plotting to revive Madara Uchiha, he would probably be overjoyed.
Is it trying to revive Madara Uchiha?
It believed that Madara Uchiha was the best vessel for resurrecting its mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki. Resurrecting Madara Uchiha was not important; resurrecting Kaguya Otsutsuki was Black Zetsu's lifelong dream!
"Let's cooperate, Kabuto!"
"You possess the greatest talent in the entire ninja world. Whatever you need to do, you'll always need some comrades, won't you?"
Black Zetsu certainly sensed the gaze of the White Snake Sage, but so what? If you're so capable, White Snake Sage, come and kill me. As a creation of Yin-Yang Release, even Uchiha Izumi's Judgment Flame couldn't kill it. Black Zetsu is extremely confident now!
It was confident that no one or no ninja beast in the entire ninja world could truly kill it, unless it was someone who had also mastered Yin-Yang Release!
"Black Zetsu, White Zetsu—"
"A member of the Akatsuki!"
Kabuto Yakushi was no stranger to Black Zetsu and White Zetsu. He had followed Orochimaru and Sasori, so he was quite knowledgeable. He had even sneaked into Akatsuki meetings.
"So, your Akatsuki organization is planning to recruit me after Orochimaru-sama?"
Kabuto's eyes flickered. He was no stranger to the Akatsuki organization, but he couldn't quite figure out why he needed to cooperate with them.
"No, no, no, it's not cooperating with the Akatsuki, it's cooperating with me!"
"Or rather, cooperate with Uchiha Madara, Lord Madara!"
Black Zetsu smiled sinisterly. It had already figured out that this guy named Yakushi Kabuto was ambitious. Although it didn't know what his ambitions were, as long as he had ambitions, then there was a basis for cooperation!
"Uchiha Madara?"
"Isn't he already dead?"
Kabuto frowned. Was this strange-looking guy playing a trick on him?
Who in the entire ninja world doesn't know that Madara Uchiha was killed by Hashirama Senju in the battle at the Valley of the End!
"Lord Madara is indeed dead, but who says the dead can't be brought back to life?"
Black Zetsu continued to smile sinisterly. It didn't say anything else. It was betting that this guy named Kabuto Yakushi might have some feelings for Orochimaru and might be tempted after hearing the news of his resurrection.
In fact, Kabuto's heart did skip a beat after hearing Black Zetsu's words.
But unlike Black Zetsu, the first person Kabuto thought of was Yakushi Nonou, the head of the orphanage, the head of the Konoha orphanage whom Kabuto regarded as his mother, and who even inherited her surname!
"You... can resurrect the dead?"
Yakushi Kabuto was feeling parched, and his voice was becoming somewhat hoarse.
"The Art of Reincarnation and Heavenly Life!"
"You were also a member of Akatsuki, albeit only a peripheral member, but you should know that the leader of Akatsuki possesses the Rinnegan, right?"
"The Rinnegan is the legendary eye of the Sage of Six Paths. Possessing those eyes allows one to activate a technique called Rinne Tensei!"
"As long as you resurrect the person you wish to revive using the Impure World Reincarnation Technique, anyone can be resurrected!"
Black Zetsu laughed more and more happily. It wasn't afraid of Kabuto's difficult request; it was afraid that Kabuto wouldn't make any request. Kabuto's behavior was practically telling it that there was someone he really wanted to revive!
"Resurrecting the dead can't be without a price, can it?"
"Even if the leader of Akatsuki possesses the eyes of the Sage of Six Paths, I don't believe he can resurrect people without paying a price!"
Kabuto wasn't as easily fooled as Obito. Having spent years following Orochimaru in playing with forbidden techniques, he knew very well that all forbidden techniques in this world came with a price; it was just a matter of how big that price was!
Kabuto doesn't believe that the price for a technique that can revive the dead, or rather, manipulate life and death, is small.
"It does require a great price, you could even say it requires the Akatsuki leader to sacrifice himself in order to revive someone else."
Black was absolutely certain that he had no intention of trying to trick Kabuto by promising to create a new world. Although he was young, he was clearly not as brainless as Obito.
"So, how did you convince the leader of Akatsuki to sacrifice himself?"
"And on what grounds does he have to sacrifice himself to resurrect someone he doesn't even know?"
Looking at Black Zetsu in front of him, Kabuto felt that the other party was just offering him a pie in the sky that was impossible to achieve.
Moreover, this guy probably wants to revive Uchiha Madara more. Reviving Yakushi Nono is probably just an empty promise from the other party!
"Just because the leader of Akatsuki can't do something doesn't mean Madara can't!"
"After all, the Akatsuki leader's Rinnegan doesn't belong to him!"
In order to gain Kabuto's trust, Black Zetsu revealed information that even Nagato himself was unaware of.
What does Nagato know?
It's simply that he knows he can summon the Gedo Mazo, and that the Gedo Mazo he summons can absorb the power of the Tailed Beasts, thus growing into a terrifying being capable of destroying a country with a single blow.
He still harbored the naive idea of using the Ten-Tails to intimidate the ninja world and force everyone to make peace!
Little did Nagato know that his entire life was scripted by others. His life seemed to be walking on thin ice, but there was absolutely no chance that he would be able to reach the other side!
"The Akatsuki leader's Rinnegan doesn't belong to him?"
Hearing Black Zetsu's words, even someone as cunning as Kabuto Yakushi was somewhat alarmed.
When Orochimaru was still alive, he heard from Orochimaru that the three founders of Akatsuki were Jiraiya's disciples, and that the one named Nagato already had the Rinnegan when Orochimaru and Jiraiya met him as children.
It was precisely because he coveted the Rinnegan and was curious as to why the Rinnegan appeared in Yahiko's eyes that Orochimaru joined the Akatsuki.
Unfortunately, Orochimaru died before achieving his goal.
"Those are Lord Madara's eyes; of course they can't belong to him!"
"To help Lord Madara heal his eyes, the Akatsuki leader's body is almost completely worn out!"
"Rather than watching him die like that, it's better to let him use the Samsara Rebirth Technique to revive Lord Madara, and then Lord Madara can revive whoever you want to revive!"
Black Zetsu continued to tempt Kabuto Yakushi, who was arguably the most important figure in his second plan.
Or rather, in the current ninja world, perhaps only Kabuto Yakushi has the ability to help him perfect, or even carry out, a second plan. After all, since Orochimaru died, Kabuto Yakushi is now the only person in the ninja world who has mastered the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
"So, what do I need to do?"
Kabuto's snake-like eyes flickered; the other party's promise was very well made, and he was somewhat tempted!
