How could he not react to Madara's name?
Yuuki immediately showed even more exaggerated shock than when he heard Black Zetsu was Indra's will, and began to murmur to himself.
"It's Senior Madara. This also explains why Senior Madara would leave the Konoha Ninja Village he single-handedly established."
Yuuki, who was performing to himself, suddenly had sharp eyes and spoke again.
"This Indra...."
Yuuki's performance naturally made Black Zetsu despise him in his heart again. As expected of an Uchiha clan member!
No matter how much they pretend normally, if they really have to call someone who is not as strong as them an ancestor, even if it's true, they would probably be unwilling!
If it weren't for the act, Black Zetsu wouldn't have thought of such a reason, and since Yuuki provided an opening, Black Zetsu took it.
After all, the name Indra sounded very harsh to Black Zetsu!
"Let bygones be bygones. I am merely a condensation of will, not Indra himself. Hokage-sama can call me by my current name, Black Zetsu."
Yuuki nodded naturally in agreement.
"Mr. Black Zetsu, the information revealed in your words just now, that Senior Madara is the reincarnation of Ancestor Indra's Chakra, is something I am very concerned about."
As he spoke, Yuuki hesitated for a moment, then, as if having made up his mind, he spoke again.
"To be honest, after receiving the enlightenment from the stone tablet, I also tried to transplant Senju Hashirama's cells into myself, but besides increasing Chakra, there was no sign of awakening the Rinnegan at all!"
This was the part Yuuki wanted to understand. In the original work, it seemed that an Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan user could awaken the Rinnegan after obtaining Hashirama cells.
Both Madara and Sasuke were like this, but both of them were reincarnations of Indra!
Now that the expert was in front of him, it was better to ask clearly. Even in the worst case, it could speed up Sasuke's training!
Black Zetsu inwardly disdained Yuuki's actions. Did he really think the Rinnegan was that easy to awaken?
If it were that simple, would I have only succeeded once in a thousand years?
Although you, Uchiha Tomoki, are abnormally strong, as you are not the reincarnation of Indra's Chakra, you are destined to have no connection with the Rinnegan!
Thinking of this, Black Zetsu once again discovered the benefits of cooperating with Yuuki. Anyway, he couldn't awaken the Rinnegan, so telling him a little more of this useless information didn't matter.
Black Zetsu quickly formulated his words and then spoke.
"Indeed, the Rinnegan is a Kekkei Genkai unique to the Six Paths Sage, and Indra and Ashura, as the sons of the Six Paths Sage, did not awaken the Rinnegan."
"It's even more impossible for ordinary Uchiha clan members and Senju clan members. Only the reincarnation of Indra has the possibility of awakening the Rinnegan."
After speaking, Black Zetsu did not forget to praise Yuuki.
"Hokage-sama, you are the Uchiha clan member with the strongest bloodline I have ever seen. If even you can't do it, then no one else can!"
Black Zetsu's words were also subtly telling Yuuki, 'Do you want peace in the Ninja World?'
If you want it, join us! Only we have the Rinnegan; you can't achieve it yourself!
Then Yuuki asked how the Infinite Tsukuyomi should be specifically cast.
Black Zetsu naturally wouldn't reveal the Eye of the Moon Plan entirely.
He only told Yuuki some key but not so crucial information, such as the Nine Tailed Beasts, the God Tree, and the Ten-Tails.
As for how to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and how to cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi, Black Zetsu did not say.
After both sides reached a consensus on the grand goal, the real negotiations began.
Black Zetsu first proposed the demand that Yuuki hand over the Six-Tails and the Nine-Tailed.
Yuuki smiled and said everything was negotiable, but he must be notified every time a Tailed Beast was captured.
Black Zetsu was very puzzled by this. You don't have the Gedo Statue, nor do you have the Rinnegan, so why are you so concerned about the Tailed Beasts?
Yuuki said very pretentiously,
"Who said that later generations must be inferior to their predecessors? Give me time, and I, Uchiha Tomoki, will surpass my ancestors, and even the Six Paths Sage. Giving up before trying is not my style!"
Then he proposed that he also wanted to collect parts of the Tailed Beasts' bodies and Chakra.
Black Zetsu originally didn't want to agree, after all, what if his mother fell into weakness after being revived if Chakra was distributed!
Therefore, Black Zetsu's refusal was exceptionally firm.
Yuuki then threatened that if he didn't agree, he would kill every one of the Nine Tailed Beasts he saw. As long as he was alive, they could forget about collecting all Nine Tailed Beasts.
In the end, Black Zetsu reluctantly compromised, saying that collection was fine, but it must only be a tiny bit.
Yuuki agreed to this. It was just an excuse for himself; otherwise, collecting Tailed Beast Chakra for no reason would seem very strange.
The real purpose was to control the progress of the other party's plan.
And by the way, to collect some body tissue and Chakra to see if he could discover anything.
Subsequently, after discussing many details, the two people, each with their own ulterior motives, finally reached a cooperation.
Before Black Zetsu left, Yuuki suddenly said,
"By the way, Konoha will soon have a new S-rank rogue ninja. You need to help the Akatsuki Organization accept him!"
