"Has the Hyūga clan co knocking?"
"No, impossible. The Hyūga clan is almost wiped out already, and they couldn't possibly give this strong a sense of danger!"
"That person… that person feels like he could actually kill ?"
Black Zetsu's emotions were extrely complicated right now. Even he knew very little about the Ōtsutsuki clan on the moon. After all, the moon's Ōtsutsuki never appeared in the shinobi world, so Black Zetsu couldn't imdiately think of their existence.
And Black Zetsu's feeling wasn't wrong.
Ōtsutsuki Toneri really might be capable of killing him.
Or rather, even the current Uchiha Chizumi could also completely kill Black Zetsu.
After all, Black Zetsu was ultimately only a product of Yin–Yang Release. Ordinary ninjutsu might have a hard ti killing him, but power that also used Yin–Yang Release could indeed erase him completely.
"Sothing happened at the base where the Tenseigan is stored?"
"Did Uchiha Chizumi find us?"
Almost instinctively, the mont Obito heard Black Zetsu's words, he thought of Uchiha Chizumi.
Or rather, in the current shinobi world, Uchiha Chizumi was the only person who could make Obito this unwilling to face him.
Obito had to admit that in front of Chizumi's eyes, he seed to have no secrets at all. Even the weakness of his Kamui was sohow known to the other man.
"It's not Uchiha Chizumi. It's soone else I've never seen before."
"But from him, I sense a threat no weaker than Pain."
Black Zetsu had no intention of hiding anything right now. His own strength was simply too weak. When faced with an enemy who could truly threaten him, Black Zetsu felt it was better to let Obito handle it.
"A threat no weaker than Pain?"
When Obito heard that, he froze as well. Just like Black Zetsu, he couldn't help wondering how soone on Pain's level had suddenly appeared in the shinobi world for no reason.
"If possible, take back the Tenseigan."
"We've already developed a fair amount of its power. If we keep developing it, Kimimaro's strength can continue rising."
Black Zetsu seriously warned Obito.
And when Kimimaro was ntioned, even Obito couldn't help nodding.
Kimimaro was simply too perfect as a tool.
Especially after they gave the Great Tenseigan to Kimimaro and his bloodline disease began to improve, his loyalty toward them beca obvious to the naked eye.
A powerful tool who might one day catch up to the Deva Path of Pain was sothing even Obito found hard not to value.
While Obito and Black Zetsu rushed toward the base where the Great Tenseigan was being kept, Ōtsutsuki Toneri had already touched the eye before him.
The instant Toneri touched it, the Great Tenseigan reacted just as it had when it t Hinata. It emitted a soft sapphire glow, almost as if it had been waiting for Toneri for a very long ti.
"Uchiha Obito… Black Zetsu, the manifestation of Uchiha Madara's will… and Kaguya Kimimaro of the Kaguya clan…"
Toneri pressed his palm firmly against the Great Tenseigan. As he did, everything the Tenseigan had experienced unfolded before his eyes—including the fact that Kimimaro had used it to awaken the Byakugan.
"So the Hyūga clan has been exterminated?"
"And that man nad Uchiha Chizumi… his strength can actually rival a second-stage Tenseigan…"
Toneri felt Tenseigan chakra flowing through him.
Even though he still had no Byakugan of his own, he had directly entered Tenseigan Chakra Mode.
Toneri's bloodline had regressed so far toward the source that even the true Ōtsutsuki clan would acknowledge him.
"Perhaps I should first find that man called Kimimaro and transplant his Byakugan into my own sockets."
"Those Byakugan may not be enough to let awaken the Tenseigan, but they should improve my strength considerably and allow to use the Tenseigan's power to so degree…"
After sensing Uchiha Chizumi's existence, Toneri had already realized how difficult it would be to take Hinata away from Konoha.
Buzz…
Just as Toneri was thinking about how to find Kimimaro, space began to distort behind him.
As the distortion spread, two figures appeared one after another behind Ōtsutsuki Toneri.
"Tenseigan Chakra Mode?"
"How is that possible?"
The mont Black Zetsu and Obito arrived at the base, Black Zetsu imdiately saw the sapphire Tenseigan chakra surrounding Toneri. He almost instinctively cried out in shock.
"Black Zetsu… and Uchiha Obito, descendant of Ancestor Hagoromo?"
At Black Zetsu's startled shout, Toneri turned around.
Only then did Black Zetsu and Obito realize that this person using Tenseigan Chakra Mode had his eyes closed.
No—not closed.
He had no eyes at all.
"Ancestor Hagoromo?"
"You're a descendant of Ōtsutsuki Hamura?"
While Obito tensed like he was facing a great enemy, Black Zetsu imdiately caught the key information in Toneri's words.
In the shinobi world, nearly all information about Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura had long since been erased by Black Zetsu. Since this man called Hagoromo "Ancestor," and since he could use the Tenseigan, Black Zetsu realized that he was probably one of Hamura's descendants from the moon—the people tasked with watching over his mother, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
"Why do you call Ancestor Hamura by na?"
"If you know Ancestor Hamura, and you are the manifestation of Uchiha Madara's will, then you should address Ancestor Hamura with respect as well."
Ōtsutsuki Toneri looked at the two before him with empty eye sockets—or rather, he looked at Black Zetsu.
He wasn't sure whether it was his imagination, but he sensed malice from Black Zetsu.
And yes, after realizing Toneri's identity, Black Zetsu indeed felt malice toward him.
Others might not know, but Black Zetsu knew very well that after Ōtsutsuki Hagoromo and Ōtsutsuki Hamura sealed away his mother, Kaguya, Hamura had gone to live on the moon. His descendants were then given the mission of watching over it.
In other words, to Black Zetsu, the Ōtsutsuki clan on the moon were nothing but jailers guarding his mother.
And they were also descendants of Ōtsutsuki Hamura, the traitor who had betrayed his own mother.
Under those circumstances, how could Black Zetsu possibly feel any goodwill?
"Ancestor… Hamura…"
Even so, Black Zetsu gritted his teeth and forced himself to respectfully call Hamura "Ancestor."
