Chapter 82: Ambition and Arrogance Undiminished
That old fellow who barely survived the life-and-death duel with the God of Shinobi, Senju Hashirama.
Even though he has reached the point where his lamp is running out of oil,
He still possesses the resolve to overturn the Ninja World.
"What a pity!"
Aoyama Ryūun couldn't help but shake his head.
If it were Uchiha Madara in his prime,
Aoyama Ryūun wouldn't need the other party to think about him; he would have gone to find him himself.
But the current Uchiha Madara is running on fumes, relying entirely on the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path to transmit life force just to stay alive.
Who knows when he might drop dead.
Against such an Uchiha Madara, even if his imposing manner remains,
Aoyama Ryūun didn't have much desire to fight him.
However, if it were Uchiha Madara at his peak, that would be different.
"So, hurry up and implement your plan, I can't wait!"
Aoyama Ryūun couldn't help but mutter.
When Uchiha Madara stands before the entire Ninja World,
And at that time, Aoyama Ryūun drops a sentence...
That scene will definitely be very interesting!
...
"Achoo!"
In the territory of the Land of Earth, beneath the Kannabi Bridge.
In a gloomy underground base,
The elderly Uchiha Madara, sitting on a high seat with the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path connected behind him, suddenly sneezed.
"Is someone cursing me?"
Truly worthy of being a powerhouse, his intuition is sharp.
However, Uchiha Madara thought about it again; it seems that people from his era are mostly dead.
It would be good if anyone even remembered him,
Let alone curse him.
"Did I catch a cold?"
Uchiha Madara was a bit skeptical of himself.
After all, this answer was closest to the facts.
The Asura of the Ninja World actually catching a cold one day? Even Uchiha Madara felt it was inconceivable.
"Heh! Have I decayed to this extent?"
He laughed self-deprecatingly.
The current Uchiha Madara, if not for the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path transmitting life force every day, would likely have died long ago.
But even so,
Uchiha Madara looked as if he could pass away at any moment.
"Hashirama! I will prove that my way is the correct one. Before that, I absolutely will not die!"
Even though he was old,
The ambition and spirit in Uchiha Madara's eyes,
Had not diminished in the slightest compared to the past.
It was precisely because of this point that Uchiha Madara had been able to live until now.
"Lord Madara!"
At this moment, the figures of Black and White Zetsu slowly emerged from the ground.
Upon seeing Black and White Zetsu, Uchiha Madara retracted his extraneous thoughts.
He restored his usual arrogance.
"Have you found a suitable candidate?"
Uchiha Madara knew clearly that he couldn't live much longer.
Even with the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, it was the same.
But there was still some time before the plan could officially begin.
Simply put, he needed a tool.
"No!"
Black Zetsu was indeed doing his best to complete Uchiha Madara's order.
After all, this also concerned Black Zetsu's plan.
However, if he couldn't find one, he couldn't find one; he was helpless.
Currently, Black and White Zetsu had not yet noticed the existence of Uchiha Obito.
"Then go back and do it!"
Uchiha Madara, who originally had some expectations, instantly had his face turn dark.
He reprimanded them directly.
"So scary! Lord Madara is so terrifying!"
White Zetsu screamed out directly.
Black Zetsu was a bit speechless at White Zetsu's reaction, but was too lazy to pay attention to it.
He relayed the matters regarding Aoyama Ryūun that he had seen earlier.
"Strongest Creature?"
The name Aoyama Ryūun was somewhat unfamiliar to Uchiha Madara.
However, upon hearing that Aoyama Ryūun thrashed the Two-Tails and Eight-Tails,
A look of interest appeared in Uchiha Madara's eyes.
But it was just that.
One must know, Uchiha Madara in his prime could treat the Nine-Tails like a pet.
"Bloodline Limit: Dragon Transformation? What a truly peculiar Ninja World!"
A Bloodline Limit he had never seen before.
However, in the Ninja World, mysterious Bloodline Limits emerge one after another; anything is possible.
"Continue looking for the person who can replace me!"
After sighing with emotion, Uchiha Madara gradually calmed down and spoke faintly.
"Uh!"
Black Zetsu was somewhat at a loss for words.
"Then do I need to pay attention to this Aoyama Ryūun?"
He didn't know why, but Black Zetsu always felt that this Aoyama Ryūun,
Would affect the upcoming plans.
"What is there to care about!"
However, facing Black Zetsu's words, Uchiha Madara spoke with an arrogant tone.
"Wait until the plan is completed and I am revived. The 'Strongest Creature' is nothing but an ant!"
Having not formally witnessed Aoyama Ryūun's power,
The inwardly arrogant Uchiha Madara didn't take it seriously at all.
"The most important thing now is to start my plan, understood?"
"..."
He hesitated, but in the end, Black Zetsu nodded.
After all, in Black Zetsu's view, the existence of Aoyama Ryūun might be a trouble,
But as long as they wait until the plan is completed and Uchiha Madara is thoroughly revived,
At that time, even Aoyama Ryūun wouldn't possibly be Uchiha Madara's opponent.
Yes!
Thinking of this, Black Zetsu nodded secretly.
He put the matter of Aoyama Ryūun aside first and began to search for a replacement for Uchiha Madara.
It was impossible to know.
Whether it was Uchiha Madara or Black Zetsu,
Neither of them expected that the Aoyama Ryūun they ignored today would cause such trouble for their plans in the future.
At that time, they would really have nowhere to cry.
Of course, not everyone was thinking about this topic.
For example, White Zetsu.
Leisurely and carefree, humming a little tune to himself.
Looking at his relaxed appearance, it formed a sharp contrast with his other half, the serious Black Zetsu.
"Can you shut up?"
The plan hadn't officially started, and the person to replace Madara hadn't been found.
Black Zetsu was annoyed.
"Oh my, Black Zetsu, am I not bored?"
"Get lost!"
"We are one body, how can I get lost?"
"..."
Somewhat speechless, Black Zetsu felt there was no need to tangle with this idiot anymore.
