บท 213: Chapter 217 » Black Zetsu Is Not My Will? Impossible!
Yusuke knew that if Madara were to encounter Isshiki, even if he couldn't defeat him, he would fight with everything he had.
"Alright, that's all I know about Isshiki for now. Let's move on, I'll continue telling you about Kaguya. Aren't you curious why she, after obtaining the Chakra Fruit and becoming the Rabbit Goddess, still desperately tried to plant a new Divine Tree?"
Everyone's faces showed puzzled expressions, clearly intrigued by this mystery.
Through Yusuke's narrative, they had learned that Kaguya's power was incredibly formidable — she had become the God of Shinobi. As the strongest being in the ninja world at that time, she shouldn't have needed to take such actions.
"We are indeed curious." Hashirama said, his face full of bewilderment, "Why would Kaguya, already so powerful, need to do such things?"
Madara, Tobirama, Izuna, Orochimaru, and the others all turned to Yusuke with questioning looks.
Yusuke took a deep breath and, meeting everyone's eyes, continued with a smile.
"This matter isn't entirely about Kaguya herself. Having grown up in the Ōtsutsuki clan, her thinking wasn't as sophisticated as ours. At the time, she was preoccupied with the fact that she and Isshiki had come to Earth together, and according to clan tradition, she was meant to be consumed as his nourishment."
"Refusing to accept this fate, she used certain methods to seal away Isshiki. However, she knew clearly that even with him sealed, the Ōtsutsuki clan would eventually send others to investigate."
After saying this, he took a deep breath.
"To counter this threat, Kaguya's only option was to become even more powerful. She began cultivating her strength, though her methods weren't as clever as we might imagine. The army she created became what we now know as White Zetsu."
"Here's something crucial: these White Zetsu were once ordinary humans. They transformed only after years of exposure to the Ten-Tails' life force chakra."
Upon hearing this, Madara, who had awakened the Rinnegan before his death, stood up abruptly and stared at Yusuke in disbelief.
"That's impossible — isn't White Zetsu a product of the Ten-Tails?" He exclaimed incredulously.
This revelation shocked him deeply, as he had been the one to summon the Ten-Tails' Demonic Statue and command these White Zetsu. Now Yusuke was telling him that these beings had once been ordinary humans.
This sudden revelation, made him somewhat unable to accept it.
"Ah, Madara! There are many secrets you don't know — especially about Black Zetsu. You still don't understand. You're foolishly clinging to the belief that it is your will."
After hearing his words, Madara's expression darkened.
"Yusuke, even if White Zetsu was created by Kaguya through the Ten-Tails thousands of years ago and transformed from ordinary humans, that's one thing. But regarding Black Zetsu, I am absolutely certain — he is the manifestation of my will. How could he not be?" He shook his head firmly, "This is something I know without any doubt."
When Yusuke saw the confident smile on his face, he couldn't help but smile with amusement.
He knew that Madara was completely convinced that Black Zetsu was his manifestation of will.
Letting out a sigh and looking at Madara standing before him, he said helplessly.
"Madara, it's understandable that you don't believe what I'm saying. Anyone in your position would feel the same. After all, you awakened the Rinnegan through your own power and methods. You even managed to summon the Ten-Tails. Naturally, you believe the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path is completely under your control — that everything is within your grasp."
"But have you ever considered something? Why were you able to awaken the Rinnegan? Have you truly pondered this question?"
Hearing this, Madara fell into deep thought.
Why had he awakened the Rinnegan? It was because he had read the contents of the Uchiha clan's stone tablet. And those contents...
Taking a deep breath, he looked at Yusuke.
"Of course I believe it. I read the inscriptions on our Uchiha clan's stone tablet before awakening the Rinnegan. This method was left by the Sage of Six Paths on our stone tablet thousands of years ago."
Yusuke had expected this response. Madara placed complete trust in the Uchiha clan's stone tablet, never considering that someone might have tampered with it.
"Though this may be difficult for you to accept, I must tell you: the Uchiha clan's stone tablet can be completely rewritten. And the one who did it was Black Zetsu — someone both familiar and strange to you!"
Upon hearing this, Madara's face filled with shock and disbelief.
"That's impossible! This is the Uchiha clan's ancient stone tablet. How could it have any connection to a life form I created?"
At this moment, he showed an expression of intense disbelief. Even Hashirama beside him, and his brother Izuna's faces also showed expressions of disbelief.
After all, the Uchiha clan's stone tablet had existed since the Warring States period, preserved through countless generations.
When Yusuke revealed that Black Zetsu had tampered with their stone tablet long ago, they found it impossible to believe.
"I know this is hard to accept, but I must tell you very seriously: Black Zetsu is not your manifestation of will. As for its true identity, I'll leave that aside for now." He shook his head slightly.
He understood why Madara would react this way to such shocking news.
He continued.
"By then, Kaguya had begun to embrace her role among humans. After falling in love, she gave birth to two sons: Hagoromo Ōtsutsuki, whom you revere as the Sage of Six Paths, and his brother, Hamura Ōtsutsuki. Though Hagoromo possessed greater power than Hamura, they weren't born this strong. At first, they were completely obedient to their mother Kaguya, treating her words as absolute law. But everything changed the day a certain toad appeared."
Everyone's faces filled with bewilderment. None had expected a toad to play such a crucial role in their magnificent ninja history.
Tsunade was the first to make the connection, asking with surprise:
"Master, are you referring to the toad from Mount Myōboku?"
A warm smile spread across Yusuke's face.
"My clever Tsunade, you're absolutely right. The toad who changed the course of human history came from Mount Myōboku — none other than Gamamaru, the current Great Toad Sage!"
