"Hmmm so the village that will support Yami and even if he defects Konoha, will most likely be one of the small ones..." -Says Orochimaru as he rubs his chin. Thinking about which village would accommodate Yami.

"Agakure (Hidden Rain) is out of the question because that place is too unstable, and Hanzo wouldn't risk having soone like Yami in there... Takigakure (Hidden Waterfall) is also out due to its alliance with Konoha, so it would be either Kusagakure (Hidden Grass) or so other village that would be too far away... Like Morigakure (Hidden Woods) or sothing like that..."

Hiruzen's face morphed into a smirk when he heard Orochimaru say that. He can't help but praise Orochimaru's genius. It's sothing that many people fear, but Hiruzen only feels proud of his student.

So Hiruzen just nods at this: "You are correct. It is Kusagakure. He has absolute control over it. My spies have proof that Yami has Kusagakure's new leader under his thumb. Whether they have a partnership or Yami is subtly manipulating him, it is unknown. But what is known, is that the connection between the Kusakage and Yami is undeniable."

Orochimaru just shrugged his shoulders when he heard this. After all, they were stuck, they couldn't do anything to Yami, and neither could they intimidate him. So they could only treat him nicely and hope he stays in the village but that option only exists for Yami because if anyone else who doesn't have the power would be simply killed and the public would simply know that 'he was poisoned by our enemies'.

.

While this was happening, Yami on the other side was lying down on his bed, in his tent. He had his eyes closed as he had headphones on his ears. Listening to the conversation Orochimaru and Hiruzen were having.

He smiles a little at this, things were going just as planned. Even though he didn't have high hopes of this working, he still tried expressing his strength and daring anyone to challenge him. Obviously, this is a little crude form of manipulation, but he also has the power to be able to pull that off, so he did it.

'Or maybe they already know that I am spying on them. So Hiruzen and Orochimaru said that only to make let down my guard. Knowing that I was spying on them all along.' -Thinks Yami, his thought process calculating a counter plan in case sothing like that happens. After all, even with all of his power that he currently holds he never underestimates anyone. He knows better than to do sothing stupid like that.

Now if only he can find where Zetsu and Madara's Cave is. That will allow him to take counterasures in case his Plan G fails in the future. Yami had seven plans on how to reach his goals, he is not following just one. In case one fails he has six others, and every now and then, he creates a new plan in case all seven of his plans fail.

'I also need to be careful of those underground White Zetsu. They are a great source of Hashirama cells. But I already have a lot of those, plus I don't want to notify Madara and Black Zetsu that I know of anything about their existence.' -Contemplates Yami, as he shifts in bed slightly, trying to find a comfortable position. Soon another of his two children will be born. Contrary to Hachi, they will be useful and have the Inuzuka na...

'Also Guy will soon co to know of his father's death... Truly, the Eight Inner Gates in an amazing technique. Allowing a diocre genin like Duy to instakill so of the Seven Ninja Swordsman and make them flee... So many plans So many wonderful things to learn about... This world truly is amazing. It literally has no limit on how much soone can grow. When I understood that, I even had a revelation and I now have a theory on how I ca to this world. If what I assu is true then hehehehehe...' -Yami laughed inwardly, satisfied with his recent progress.

'I must always seek to evolve, that is the only way I can reach my dream to omnipotence and omniscience. I can already imagine myself sitting on a throne laughing at the trivial things happening in the world...' -Contemplates Yami, due to his plans lately going so good. He too is in a good mood.

He brings his hand in front of his face and he uses so chakra. Slowly a little lava started appearing in his hand. He had only let i Terumi escape because she was no longer useful to him. Escaping Yami is truly impossible. Even if Kaguya magically descended from the moon to save i Terumi, she wouldn't be able to do so due to the counterasures Yami has in place against leaving loose ends.

Plus, he even deleted the mories of the horrible tortures he inflicted on her, trying to figure out how to keep her alive while he obtained her Kekkei Genkai... So now i Terumi is just one more of his pawns She just doesn't know it yet. Which is even better.

'Around another five years and the war should be over I must get so more benefits from this war. My shadow clones are already plundering the world for But that isn't enough. I need so more Hmmm, how did Itachi get sothing like the Yamata Mirror and the Totsuka Blade? Also, I need to start researching more on souls, I have hit a roadblock there But I need more. After all, I too would like to have my own Susanoo. I know that the Susanoo is actually in the 'nose' of the human soul. But unlike replacing a physical nose, I must learn and investigate more about how the soul works...' -Thinks Yami, as he rembers the strange research results that he got, he didn't even know that sohow a soul-body form even existed That shows how much in the unknown he is researching.

'Hmmm, I wonder how people will react when they learn of what happened in the Hidden Mist. Tsunade will definitely be hysterical once she learns of Hachi's death She will most likely leave the village again and drown in alcohol. But Hachi's death might influence her even more Will she maybe beco a hindrance to my plans? Or will she maybe even join Akatsuki in the future, if they promise to revive her loved ones? This is honestly a real possibility but maybe not so much Given that Nagato will not take to inviting her due to the risk of Tsunade recognizing him and figuring out his powers...'

'Or maybe she will join hands with Orochimaru in the future Both of those outcos would be horrible...' -Thinks Yami as he plans out bad possible future outcos, and how he will handle them in case they happen.

'I also can't put sothing like an explosion seal on her or she will definitely notice it. Plus my mory manipulation techniques are crude and unrefined. Truly, coming up with plans and sches is a hurdle. Plus, I would like the tiline to continue as close to canon as possible, in that way I can sohow predict the future and not just run around blindly... My future knowledge is an absolute tool of mine. If I have to kill Tsunade for it, to keep it on track then. So be it..." -Calculates Yami, while contemplating which people he should kill and which ones he should keep alive

*Author's Note*

The last part was also a look back into Yami's ways, on how he plans things and how he emotionlessly contemplates whether he should kill certain people or not.

P.S: Just because he contemplated if he should kill the people, it doesn't an that he will definitely do it and kill them.

ANNOUNCENT: For every 1000 Power Stones in this story, this will get 1 extra chapter plus the daily chapter.
