The Valley of the End, decades ago, an earth-shattering war took place here.
The protagonists are Konoha's first Hokage, Senju Hashirama, and Uchiha Madara, the leader of the Uchiha clan. These two ninjas, whose strength has surpassed the level of the ninja world, destroyed the terrain here to pieces, or later. The ninjas rebuilt the place and built two huge sculptures to commemorate the duel.
Among them, at the top of the sculpture that symbolizes Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Madara wearing a golden mask sat at the top of the head, looking at the huge Senju Hashirama sculpture, and couldn't help but laugh sarcastically.
"Did you see that? Hashirama? The world you expected has not come in the end. Even if it is because of huge external threats, they are still fighting for their own interests... "
"If there is no one to guide us, the era of mutual understanding and mutual tolerance will never come. This is the conclusion I have reached in my decades of career."
He slowly took off his mask, but the face revealed was shocking.
The originally aging face was no longer there. At this moment, he looked only about fifty years old. Although he had not yet returned to his prime, it was much better than before, when he looked like he was about to be buried.
"Although I don't know whether what that guy said is true or not... but it does not conflict with my previous plan."
Whether it was his original Eye of the Moon plan or the later human completion plan mentioned by the mysterious man who called himself Kaz, the core basis was the Infinite Tsukuyomi. According to his estimation, when he became the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, Then you can completely rely on your own judgment to decide which one to choose.
But now there is a very real problem facing the ninja world, and that is the invasion of demons.
Originally, according to his idea, when he retrieved the Samsara Eye and captured the nine tailed beasts, even the so-called demons would not be his opponent.
But there is a big problem before him, and that is life span...
Ripple Qigong can only delay his aging, but cannot guarantee that he will return to his peak. With his current strength, if he finds that brat Nagato, even if he can defeat him and retrieve the Samsara Eye, it will not be an easy task.
However, he still didn't know whether Black Zetsu had ulterior motives as Kaz said, and the demons might not watch him collect tailed beasts, so he followed Kaz's suggestion and hid behind the scenes. Like Black Zetsu and White Zetsu Obito, he conveyed the illusion that he was dead and completely hid it.
He has been faking death in the ninja world for decades, and he doesn't care if he continues to fake death in the eyes of Black Zetsu and the others. For the success of the plan, everything is worth it!
"Why are you looking for me at this time?"
Feeling a sudden movement from behind, Madara frowned, then turned his head and found that it was Kaz who was coming.
"Of course I'll let you know if I have anything to do."
Facing Madara's questioning tone, Kaz didn't take it seriously and just replied lightly.
Madara put on the mask again and said in a low voice, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"The leader of the Shichibukai is finally going to take action."
"The leader of the Shichibukai? Another unplanned variable."
Regarding the Shichibukai, Madara also learned a lot about it. He and Minato had similar ideas. They both believed that the leader of the Shichibukai was very likely to be a strong man beyond the Kage level, perhaps comparable to his own peak.
If such a strong man intervened in the ninja world, all Madara's plans would have to be redesigned.
"His dispatch should be for the so-called Five Shadows Conference... Haha, let me see which one is stronger, the leader of the Shichibukai or the Holy Lord of the Demon Clan."
Madara has no plans to intervene in this war between humans and demons, at least not at first.
"Maybe you can't stay out of it as you think." Kaz shook his head. "Do you know what the full name of the Shichibukai is?"
"Hmph, I'm not interested in knowing." Madara squinted his eyes. He hated others making excuses in front of him.
Fortunately, Kaz didn't mind either, and just continued, "It's the King's Shichibukai..."
"Your Majesty...?" Madara raised an eyebrow. "Perhaps you should tell everything you know. The prerequisite for cooperation is the sharing of information."
Kaz spread his hands, "But you didn't want me to follow you, didn't you?"
Madara paused, turned around and said, "Stop talking nonsense, let's first talk about the so-called King's Seven Martial Arts."
"Haha." Kaz said helplessly, "Let's start with the so-called king."
"This king is not the famous ones today, but a king who ruled the world in ancient times. Now we call him the Spiritual King."
"Spirit King?" Madara frowned, "Could it be another apostle?"
"Rather than saying he is an apostle, I would rather turn him into a wedge." Before Uchiha Madara could ask, Kaz added, "At that time, after the war between many apostles, the world was in pieces. In order to repair the world, the ancestors who ate the fruit of wisdom and the world After signing the contract, they made the Soul King a wedge to maintain the world to maintain the balance of the world. Once the Soul King dies, the Ninja World, Underworld, and the Psychic World will collapse."
"Reputation value from Uchiha Madara +2458."
"What does that have to do with the Shichibukai?"
"Of course someone must protect such an existence. Otherwise, once someone kills the Soul King, wouldn't it cause the collapse of the three realms?" Kaz shrugged, and added, "The Shichibukai is the secret service organization responsible for guarding the Soul King. "Originally, in ancient times, there were tens of thousands of people guarding the Soul King, and there were thirteen squads. However, after so many years, only the current Oishi Shichibukai is left of the originally huge organization."
There was sadness in his voice. Thinking about it, why wasn't he like this back then
SEELE was all like-minded partners at first. In order to find the Son of Destiny and implement the plan to complete the human race, he was left alone to trek for thousands of years. Who knew this hardship
"It sounds quite tragic."
Originally, with the strength of these people in the Shichibukai, if they were placed in the outside world, they would definitely be guests of various forces. How could they not be as famous as they are in the Shichibukai
But even though he said that, Madara didn't reveal any emotion in his words.
Having seen everything in the world, he has long passed the age where someone can make his blood boil with just a few words.
"It's tragic, but they are very likely to stand in our way." Kaz fanned the flames and said, "If we want to implement the human completion plan, we must use infinite moon reading to mix everything in the world into one, and this will lead to the The Spirit King of Chuzi was damaged, which is unacceptable to the Qibuhai, and after countless years of hard work, they already know many mysteries, so they will definitely come to stop us!"
Madara was silent for a moment, and then said, "... What do you mean..."
Kaz's words were concise and to the point, "I need you to find out how strong the leader of the Shichibukai is."
Madara looked at Kaz, then smiled and said nothing, but the meaning was obvious.
Madara knew that Kaz in front of him had the ability to bury the souls of the six shadows, and he also wanted to know how strong Kaz was...
But Kaz just shook his head and said, "If I take action, they will definitely guess my identity... By then the Shichibukai will be more wary of us, which will have an adverse impact on our next plan." …”
