Chapter 282Chaos. Complete and utter chaos.
As the will of the Kaguya, Black Zetsu naturally knew many things.
He also knew that his mother, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, had some terrifying enemies.
It was precisely to deal with those enemies that his mother, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, had created the White Zetsu and eventually fell out with his two "brothers," Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura.
And now, the leader of this mysterious organisation that had suddenly appeared might be one of his mother’s enemies, an enemy thought to be long dead!
Ōtsutsuki Isshiki!
This thought sent a chill down Black Zetsu’s spine.
“No, I must understand the truth about this organisation and find out if that person is truly Ōtsutsuki Isshiki!”
Muttering to himself, Black Zetsu’s form once again disappeared into the ground.
He could soon erase Uchiha Madara’s mental imprint completely. Once rid of Madara’s interference, he could stay close to this person at all times and determine whether the master behind him was truly Ōtsutsuki Isshiki!
…
At the same time, Uchiha Madara frowned, sensing his weakening mental imprint. He realized that soon, the imprint might be completely eradicated.
Without this mental connection, he might lose all traces of this mysterious individual.
This meant he needed to seize his final opportunity.
A cold smile appeared on Madara’s lips.
Did this mysterious individual really think he hadn’t noticed being diverted so many times?
He had been tracking that strange monk. Even when tangled up with Madara, the individual still followed the monk, proving that the monk was of great importance to him.
That strange monk was Madara’s last lead.
“Things are getting more and more interesting,” Madara muttered, following Black Zetsu once more.
Drip, drip, drip.
The sound of raindrops echoed in the cave where the Shadow Avatar was seated cross-legged, a gloomy expression on his face as he muttered incessantly.
“Sigh, still no suitable candidates. It’s been so many years now. I’m starting to doubt if I’ll ever find one in my lifetime.”
“I wonder how the master is holding up. How much longer can his body endure? Sigh.”
“This cursed weather, always raining and delaying my
…
Elsewhere, Uchiha Madara focused on the distant chakra, deep in thought.
The mysterious individual thought he had eluded Madara, but Madara had a rough idea of his location and his target.
Now that the mysterious individual was exposed and Madara remained in the shadows, how should he proceed?
Should he kidnap the target to lure out the mysterious individual?
No. If the mysterious individual abandoned the target, Madara would lose his only lead.
Even if the mysterious individual appeared, Madara might still be unable to deal with him.
Although he could once again imprint a mental mark, the mysterious individual could easily retreat to an unreachable place and erase it.
Madara pondered this dilemma. Unless he could control the mysterious individual’s target in secret…
Could he?
Thinking quickly, Madara recalled one of his techniques: the Forbidden Individual Curse Tag
This juinjutsu, capable of subtly influencing a person’s mind and manipulating them from the shadows, had been used by Madara before—on Rin Nohara and Obito Uchiha.
Although both eventually broke free, the technique had allowed Madara to achieve his goals, particularly with Obito.
Obito’s drastic transformation couldn’t be solely attributed to his despair; this technique had played a significant role.
