Chapter 436: Never Lost in Verbal Combat

The appearance of Black Zetsu almost gave Obito and Nagato a fright.

However, the "Dad" that Black Zetsu called out caused everyone present to break their composure.

"What is the situation?"

"Isn't Black Zetsu the will of Uchiha Madara?"

"How can Black Zetsu call Senju Xingye 'Dad'?"

"This is too unbelievable!"

Although everyone knew that Senju Xingye had many children, after all, they had been working with Black Zetsu for so long.

A ninja as young as Senju Xingye could actually have such a big "good son" like Black Zetsu.

This was too unbelievable!

Black Zetsu seemed to have noticed the doubts of Nagato and Obito.

"Don't worry, I am actually not the will of Uchiha Madara. I was previously controlled by his dōjutsu, and it was Senju Xingye who saved me."

Hearing this, Obito and Nagato gasped at the same time.

There was actually such a layer of reason.

"Alright, since everyone has cleared up the misunderstanding, it seems we can proceed to the next step of the plan."

Senju Xingye came before Nagato, and looking at the pale-haired, withered Nagato, the corners of Senju Xingye's mouth curled into a smile.

"The vitality of the Uzumaki clan is very tenacious, yet even so, you have been sucked into this state. It seems the Rinnegan is a great burden on you."

"At your current physical condition, I fear you won't last much longer."

Senju Xingye paused, noticing Nagato's solemn expression, and his tone carried a hint of comfort:

"But you don't have to worry. As long as you replace the Rinnegan, I have the confidence to help you heal your body."

Only at this moment did Nagato fully understand Senju Xingye's intentions.

"So you were after my Rinnegan from the very beginning?"

At this time, Uchiha Obito corrected him: "Let me correct you. Actually, this Rinnegan was awakened by Uchiha Madara himself after he seized Hashirama's cells, and it was I who transplanted it onto you."

Nagato's expression was one of surprise: "It was you?"

Actually, Nagato wasn't completely unaware, but he had been in the suspicion stage before, and today he finally confirmed it.

"Then the establishment of the Akatsuki organization was also pushed by you?"

Uchiha Obito did not intend to hide it: "That's right, I used you before, but this was all Uchiha Madara's intention. If you want to blame someone, blame Uchiha Madara."

Nagato lowered his head, lost in thought, and Konan beside him also frowned deeply.

Senju Xingye saw that the atmosphere was a bit tense, so he stood up to adjust the mood:

"Although the establishment of the Akatsuki organization was Uchiha Obito's plan, the destruction of your village was not Obito's design."

"Think back carefully. Your village was caught in the cracks between great nations. For hundreds of years, it has been in constant war, always a battlefield for the great nations to compete. For so many years, the flames of war have never been extinguished."

"Obito is not very old now; even if someone really did attack your village, it should have been Uchiha Madara."

Senju Xingye's words cleverly attracted the hatred toward Uchiha Madara.

Of course, all of this was not Senju Xingye's nonsense; there was still some basis behind it.

Black Zetsu, who witnessed the entire conversation, admired his "Dad" Senju Xingye even more in his heart.

He originally thought his own years of scheming were enough to be devious, but he didn't expect this cheap dad of his to be even more ruthless when it came to fooling people.

It was clearly a plan to revive his mother, Kaguya, yet in the eyes of Obito and Nagato, it could evolve into two versions...

It must be said that Senju Xingye is the greatest fooler.

Regardless, Senju Xingye's words still dispelled the hostility Nagato and Konan had toward Obito.

"It seems we now have a common enemy. Let us work together to deal with that legendary Madara. What do you think?"

Black Zetsu reminded them at this appropriate moment.

The atmosphere at the scene eased once again.

"Tell us, what is your plan?" Nagato's tone became very calm.

Senju Xingye decided to explain the legends of the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki and the power of the Six Paths to Nagato.

And he analyzed the situation of this world in great detail.

It was also the first time Nagato heard that there were many strange and bizarre worlds beyond the great seas.

There is the Germa, an assassin organization that relies on technology.

There is the kingdom in the clouds, the God's Skypiea.

There is the sunken kingdom on the seabed, Fish-Man Island.

And the animal kingdom carried on the back of a giant elephant on the sea.

Strange and bizarre, everything is there.

Besides their current world, somewhere in the world, there also exist the Hueco Mundo and the Soul Society. ===== CHAPTER 440 =====
