Chapter 1070
"Orochimaru..."
Madara had indeed heard of a ninja named Orochimaru. Madara died very late; by the time he died, the Sannin had been famous for a long time.
Madara didn't notice anything unusual, but there was someone who knew the inside story, and that was Kabuto, who had reanimated Madara.
But even if Kabuto discovered that something was wrong, so what? He wasn't Orochimaru himself, and besides, would he choose to turn against Su Xiao for the sake of the reanimated Uchiha Madara?
And Su Xiao also knew one thing: soon, someone would help him silence the witness. Sasuke had already transplanted Itachi's Sharingan a few days ago. This was done deliberately by Obito so that Sasuke could become a major help in this war.
What Obito didn't know was that he had indeed succeeded, but he had helped the enemy increase their combat power.
Ten minutes ago, Kabuto had passed a piece of intelligence to Su Xiao, roughly meaning that the two brothers, Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Itachi, had joined forces and were now rushing to his hideout.
Kabuto was currently overwhelmed, so how could he have time to pay attention to the situation on the battlefield? Kabuto's goal was Sasuke, so he directly chose to meet the two brothers. Kabuto had a mysterious confidence in his own strength, confident that he could defeat Uchiha Itachi + the Eternal Mangekyou state of Sasuke.
Ignoring Kabuto's mysterious confidence for now, looking at the current situation, dumping the blame on Orochimaru was completely fine. Moreover, with Madara's arrogant personality, would he really go and verify these things with Orochimaru?
"What do you know?"
Madara's thoughts were unknown for the time being, but Su Xiao did indeed have the qualifications to negotiate with Madara. Before Madara was reanimated, Su Xiao had done too many things within the Akatsuki organization.
"What I know actually isn't too much. The most important thing is that Obito is not reliable. At least to me, Obito is no longer a competent collaborator. That guy always likes to watch from the shadows. When Nagato and I attacked Konoha, he was watching from the sidelines. When I killed the Fourth Raikage, he was also watching."
"Oh?"
Madara's eyes narrowed. He thought to himself that if what Su Xiao said was true, then what the other party said earlier about him starting this war didn't seem impossible.
"What have you done on the battlefield?"
Madara began to probe.
"Killing."
Su Xiao's answer was simple and easy to understand.
"Whether to collaborate with you, I cannot make a decision yet. As you can see, I am currently just a dead person reanimated by Reanimation."
It was obvious that Madara was much more sincere than before, but he knew nothing about Su Xiao. If he really wanted to collaborate with Su Xiao, he still needed to observe.
Su Xiao also knew this. If Madara continued with his previous attitude, he would turn around and leave. At most, he would just grab a haul and leave the Naruto World immediately.
"Madara, you first need to know what the God Tree is. I once saw a very interesting document in Orochimaru's laboratory. Whether it's true or false cannot be determined for now. Although that document is a bit too fantastical, it might just be the truth."
"What document?"
"A document about the Otsutsuki clan. According to the records in that document, this world originally didn't have this energy called chakra. One day, a woman descended from the sky."
"Wait."
Madara raised his hand, his gaze seeming to say, do you take me for a three-year-old child?
"I said it was a bit fantastical, just listen to it as a story. And the Five Kage under your feet will be completely paralyzed to death before long."
Su Xiao roughly introduced the origin of the Otsutsuki clan and the God Tree to Madara.
According to Su Xiao's understanding, the Otsutsuki clan was a race from another planet. Their life level was clearly higher than humans, so they could leave the planet they were on.
The Otsutsuki clan's most powerful technique was to plant a God Tree on other planets. This God Tree would absorb the life force and energy of all living things on that planet, including the planet itself.
The God Tree would bloom and bear fruit, and eventually, they would obtain the God Tree fruit. This was the root of the Otsutsuki clan's power. After eating the God Tree fruit, their strength would increase significantly, and they could possess a long lifespan.
One day, a member of the Otsutsuki clan came to the Naruto World and planted a God Tree here, but she was somewhat weak at the time and could only recuperate in the Naruto World, waiting for the God Tree to bear fruit.
However, this member of the Otsutsuki clan fell in love with a human in the Naruto World and gave birth to two sons. It was precisely these two sons that caused the God Tree planting to fail.
"The content of the document is basically like this. The names of the two sons were Otsutsuki Hamura and Otsutsuki Hagoromo. Some people also call Otsutsuki Hagoromo the Sage of Six Paths. This ability called chakra comes from the God Tree."
Su Xiao actually didn't care whether Madara believed his words, because Madara would have his own judgment.
"These two brothers defeated their mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki, and sealed her in the moon. Coincidentally, Obito's Eye of the Moon Plan also seems to want to project ocular jutsu onto the moon. I'm just assuming, if Kaguya Otsutsuki is really sealed inside the moon, then what will happen when the Infinite Tsukuyomi is projected onto the moon?"
Su Xiao looked at Madara with some interest.
"What a... interesting story."
Madara looked up at the moon in the sky. He didn't know if the Otsutsuki clan really existed, but he knew one thing: the Sage of Six Paths did indeed exist. He had awakened the Rinnegan, which already confirmed this point.
In fact, Madara had always been curious: where did the Sage of Six Paths come from? Where did the chakra energy he passed to others come from? Could it be that the Sage of Six Paths suddenly appeared one day?
Rather than believing that the Sage of Six Paths suddenly appeared, Madara was more willing to believe in the existence of the Otsutsuki clan.
"By the way, let me tell you something even more interesting. That document clearly states that to break Kaguya Otsutsuki's seal, five conditions are required: Rinnegan + Demonic Statue of the Outer Path + God Tree + Nine Tailed Beasts + an exaggerated amount of chakra. Madara, you wouldn't be trying to break that so-called Kaguya Otsutsuki's seal, would you?"
Su Xiao's words made Madara freeze.
"Impossible. I learned these secrets through the Uchiha clan's stone tablet. You, based on just a document..."
"Stone tablet? Madara, did I say that the document just now was true? I was assuming the whole time. In contrast, how do you prove that the Uchiha clan's stone tablet is not problematic?"
"That stone tablet..."
Before Madara could finish speaking, Su Xiao interrupted.
"That stone tablet is right under Konoha. Anyone who transplants two Rinnegan can read the entire content on that stone tablet. Nagato once possessed two Rinnegan. If he wanted to, he could also read or modify that stone tablet; it doesn't require Uchiha blood. Nagato and I personally tried this."
"What!"
Madara's eyes changed, and killing intent surged.
"The viewing order of the stone tablet is Three-Tomoe Sharingan, Mangekyou Sharingan, Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, Rinnegan. It records various ocular jutsu; Susanoo, Izanagi, Izanami, Infinite Tsukuyomi, etc., are all included. Mangekyou also comes in many types, such as straight-tomoe, ring-tomoe, and the like."
Madara couldn't remain calm this time. Don't talk about Madara; even Bubu Wang looked at Su Xiao in surprise, his eyes seeming to say: "Master, when have you ever seen that stone tablet? That's amazing."
Su Xiao was actually secretly observing Uchiha Madara's reaction. He almost believed what he said himself. In fact, he had never seen that damn stone tablet at all; this information was all obtained by him through reading documents.
If Su Xiao didn't have his current combat power, he wouldn't try to negotiate with Madara. More importantly, there were two points: Madara's arrogant personality and Orochimaru's 'friendly' scapegoating.
There was no one else around; the Five Kage were all in a coma. Su Xiao was trying to see if he could fool Madara; after all, their information channels were no longer on the same level.
If he could fool him, Su Xiao would get rich. He was already prepared to land the finishing blow near Madara. This guy Madara always liked to beat people half to death and then go looking for the next strong enemy. If he landed the finishing blow, even if the rewards obtained would be greatly reduced, the quantity would be enough to make up for the quality.
If he couldn't fool him, Su Xiao would choose to turn around and retreat, and find a way to quickly disengage from the battle to leave the Naruto World.
The plot of the Naruto World had already progressed to such a late stage that the possibility of Su Xiao entering the Naruto World again was not high. Therefore, he was grabbing whatever benefits he could now.
It was impossible to completely fool Madara, and Su Xiao never thought that Madara would completely believe what he said, but as long as Madara became suspicious of that stone tablet, then things would be much easier to handle.
"So, choose: collaborate with me, who is full of suspicious points, or continue to blindly project the Infinite Tsukuyomi onto the moon."
"Full of suspicious points—what an appropriate term."
Madara, of course, wouldn't be easily fooled by Su Xiao, but Su Xiao's understanding of the Uchiha clan's stone tablet did indeed shock him quite a bit.
Just then, Su Xiao received a prompt from the Reincarnation Paradise.
【Prompt: The Hunter has activated a hidden mission.】
