Konoha's task master

The territory of the Fire Country is the search range set by Yakumo.

Since Uchiha Madara's goal has always been Kyuubi, his base camp will naturally not be far away from Konoha Hidden Village, and may even be nearby.

But in the end, Yakumo determined that... there was no secret base of Uchiha Madara within a hundred miles of Konoha, which also made his plan fail.

Many shadow clones searched from high altitude and began to radiate to the surroundings further away. On the other hand, Yakumo's true body was in the secret base to soothe Uzumaki Kushina's emotions and restore her calmness.

A few hours later, Uzumaki Kushina's emotions gradually lost control. During the six months in the secret base, she had endured extreme loneliness. Her emotions were like a bowstring that had been tightened, and there were already signs of breaking.

Even though Kakashi and Nohara Rin came to comfort Uzumaki Kushina, her mood inevitably became extremely low, and she seemed to be suppressing the fire in her heart.

The disappearance of Namikaze Minato had a great impact on her. If it weren't for Naruto's existence, she might have lost her mind and gone out to look for traces.

At this time, the sky outside was getting dark, and the sun was about to fall into the horizon in the distance, leaving only an extremely huge black shadow. The turbulent air around him ruffled the broken hair on his forehead.

This place is already in a relatively desolate mountainous area. There is no platform concrete road, only rugged and uneven mountain roads, only one person wide. Due to the rain a few days ago, the ground is slightly muddy.

The person patrolling here was just a shadow clone, but he felt huge chakra fluctuations inside the mountain in the distance, like a towering mountain.

This smell is very familiar...it is Uchiha Madara.

"Finally found."

Inside the mountain, there is another stream of chakra, which is Namikaze Minato who disappeared from Konoha. His disappearance is indeed related to Uchiha Madara.

According to the established plan, the shadow clones split into new shadow clones, and at the same time, one of the shadow clones was dissolved. The memory recording the location here emerged in Yakumo's mind.

"I'm going to rescue Minato now."

A smile appeared on Yakumo's face and he said to the people in the distance.

"I will go with you."

Uzumaki Kushina's eyes turned red as she answered Yakumo, looking very nervous and waving her hands randomly as if they had nowhere to place them.

"Sister Kushina, please don't cause trouble."

Yakumo said unceremoniously that Uchiha Madara's ultimate goal of kidnapping Namikaze Minato was Kyuubi. If Uzumaki Kushina was allowed to participate in the rescue at this time, what would be the difference from door-to-door delivery.

Take a step forward at the same time.

His figure disappeared directly from the secret base, and the space seemed to open a door, infinitely shortening the distance between the two places...

Swish.

The space rotates and light and shadow move instantaneously.

The distance moved this time was very far. Yakumo was slightly dizzy and nauseated. This feeling was disappearing quickly. This move... probably consumed about 30% of his physical strength.

Many shadow clones can be eliminated directly!

Yakumo formed a seal in front of him, and all the shadow clones searching in the Land of Fire were dispersed, and huge chakra gathered towards Yakumo from all directions.

Under the vision of the soul's eye, Yakumo can see the hugeness of Uchiha Madara's chakra, which has reached the Six Paths level, and there is still an even larger amount of chakra inside his body.

"The incomplete version of the Ten-Tails?"

It has been thousands of years since the Nine-Tails separated from the Ten-Tails body. Naturally, some of the Nine-Tails' chakra has been lost due to various reasons. For example, the Golden Horn and Silver Horn of the Cloud Ninja Village have part of the Nine-Tails chakra in their bodies.

Tail Chakra.

Even if Madara Uchiha cannot obtain the Nine-Tails, he can still piece together an incomplete version of the Ten-Tails and obtain the power of the six paths carried by the Ten-Tails. However, the incomplete version of the Ten-Tails does not seem to be enough to support him in using the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

This means...Kyuubi is the target that must be harvested.

Yakumo quietly waited for the recovery of his chakra, and at the same time restored his physical strength through rest, hoping to return to his peak.

"Although the enemy is not far away, we must be cautious."

He began to calculate the methods he would use when the battle broke out, and how to restrain Madara Uchiha, who had the power of six paths.

This is the first battle after re-tempering the demon.

The sky is getting darker and the strong winds in the sky have become smaller. There are many green fireflies in the forest below, flying through the gaps in the branches.

They are natural spirits, carefree.

At this time, Yakumo's body has been replenished with chakra, and his physical fatigue has recovered over time. It is time for the final battle in the ninja world to break out.

After… Uchiha Madara was pacified, everything in the ninja world came to an end.

Yakumo's figure slowly descended from the sky. He did not hide his aura. It is estimated that it won't be long before Uchiha Madara notices Yakumo's arrival.

Under the night, Yakumo stood quietly on the treetops, watching the mountains in the distance begin to inject life energy into the trees at his feet. This was to prepare for the next use of the Wood Release Ninjutsu.

Not long after, the mountain-like aura began to move.

Whoa…

Uchiha Madara appears!

The white robe all over his body flows like liquid, and is covered with magatama patterns. He is holding a tin staff condensed from seeking jade in his hand, and seven black balls are flying freely behind him.

He also defeated gravity and mastered the ability to fly.

The robe condensed with chakra is very long, and the hem swings in the wind. It does look like an immortal, floating and ethereal.

The forehead is covered by a wooden horn-shaped structure. I wonder if it has grown at this time...a third eye that can activate the infinite Tsukuyomi.

When the two met again, there was not much tit-for-tat.

"Where's Orochimaru?"

Uchiha Madara took the initiative to ask after some thought. His aura was extremely restrained, not aggressive, but he had the calmness to win.

"Dead..." Yakumo replied.

"I guess he will pop up again every few years... He will be difficult to kill."

Uchiha Madara answered with a smile, not looking anxious at all.

"Splitting one's own soul is not the right path after all."

Yakumo answered noncommittally, and then asked again.

"You are talking so patiently, do you hope that Namikaze Minato, who is controlled by your genjutsu, can bring you the Kyuubi?"

When Madara Uchiha appeared, the aura belonging to Minato Namikaze inside the mountain completely disappeared. This was Madara Uchiha's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain.

"I didn't expect... to be discovered by you."

The spotted-headed Uchiha admitted, his face still very calm...

There is a fundamental difference between him now and before. Under the gaze of the Samsara Eye, any movement of the enemy will have no way to escape.

Yakumo also planned to ensure the safety of Namikaze Minato first, and killing Uchiha Madara was not a very important matter.

"Do you think you've got me?"

Yakumo chuckled and replied. Within two meters of his body, there were four dark shadows made of energy, faintly surrounding him in the center.

It is exactly what Uchiha Madara saw in his reincarnation: Children's Art, Rinne Tomb, and Border Prison.

Although the two of them had a simple conversation, they were actually at war with each other.

"Of course, you should have chased me without leaving any room at all."

Before the Rinnegan and the Ten-Tails, he admitted that he was no match for Yakumo, but now the situation was essentially different.

"Do you know why I didn't pursue you?" Yakumo asked with a smile.

"I have no idea."

Uchiha Madara shook his head. Being defeated by Yakumo was the second time he was so embarrassed. At that time, he even considered Kang's death, but in the end the pursuit of peace defeated the impulsive devil.

But he never thought...why Yakumo didn't follow him in the first place.

Good intentions...kindness, or simplicity?

"Because... no matter how powerful you become in the future, you will never be stronger than me. Just like now... I am stronger than you."

"Haha, your tone is very loud."

Uchiha Madara showed anger, but his anger was quickly covered up.

"I said back then...I would beat you, but you didn't believe it."

"As a result, you ran away in embarrassment."

"Today I said... I will defeat you, and this is the destined result."

Uchiha Madara still had a nonchalant expression. After mastering his Rinnegan, he gained absolute confidence in his strength.

"You just can't see clearly...the gap between you and me."

"Is your confidence just the energy bodies around me?"

Yakumo stretched out his finger and pointed at the dark figures not far away. These four puppet-like energy bodies could not be found with the naked eye, but they were very obvious from the perspective of the soul.

"Can you see it? You shouldn't be able to see it..."

When Yakumo pointed his finger at the puppet of the Rinnagaku side prison, Uchiha Madara somewhat broke his guard. Although the Rinnegura side prison was not his strongest method, it was his secret method that was directly exposed by Yakumo.

"Of course...why did you choose to let Namikaze Minato take action today?"

Yakumo is currently unable to determine when Namikaze Minato was taken away, but it should have been within the past few days, but it was not until today that Uchiha Madara officially implemented his plan.

"This question... Namikaze Minato's will is stronger than I thought. It took me several days to completely transform him into my tool."

Uchiha Madara did not hide, but answered directly.

"Because love...makes people strong?"

Yakumo thought for a moment. "But this is not reasonable."

"I also think it's unreasonable, but that's the fact."

Both of them were waiting for the situation in the secret base to end. He had left a shadow clone in Ryūchi Cave, and together with Masako Mori and Chiyuki Sangoku, it was not a problem to block Namikaze Minato.

Of course, the ultimate goal is to safely control Minato Namikaze, and then use the shadow clone to remove the influence of Uchiha Madara's genjutsu.

Yakumo once again separated a shadow clone and sent it into the Ryuji Cave. Madara Uchiha did not stop him. In his opinion...a mere shadow clone was not enough to change the final result.

The two of them stopped talking and stood quietly.

Under the shadow of the moon, both of them looked very calm. Uchiha Madara just wanted the Nine-Tails to piece together the Ten-Tails and completely open the third eye...use the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

The reason why Uchiha Madara is so confident is because he split his own will and possessed it in Namikaze Minato. That is the real trump card to bring out the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki.

"You snatched the tail beast and entered the Sixth Path... just for your peace?"

"That's right."

Uchiha Madara was very confident when he said that the Infinite Tsukuyomi Project was the goal he had been pursuing for half his life...for true peace.

"Unfortunately... the content on the stone tablet in the Uchiha clan has been modified. Infinite Tsukuyomi is not a true art of peace. The principle of that art is to use the sacred tree to collect the chakra of everyone in the ninja world."

"Those who have been deprived of chakra will not survive more than three days."

Yakumo deleted, deleted, and revised what he knew, and finally told Madara Uchiha the truth behind the infinite Tsukuyomi.

"This is impossible..."

Uchiha Madara immediately retorted that the words on the stone tablet were recorded by the Sage of Six Paths. They not only recorded the promotion formula of the Sharingan, but the most important thing was the truth about the ninja world.

But... what Yakumo said doesn't sound like lies.

"Whether you believe it or not, your plan will never succeed."

Yakumo said very straightforwardly that the shadow clone he had left in Ryuji Cave had controlled Minato Namikaze, and the others were cooperating to capture Black Zetsu.

He did not expect that for the safety of the plan, Uchiha Madara would actually send out Black Zetsu disguised as his will clone. Its special body composition made it extremely difficult to capture.

No matter how you put it, he won in this sentence.

After all... Minato Namikaze is safe.

"My plan will definitely succeed."

True peace is Uchiha Madara's only goal in life. He has long since abandoned many human emotions, and he is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve this goal.

"I don't think so..."

Yakumo looked up at the full moon in the sky. Due to his intervention, Otsutsuki Kaguya should have no chance of getting out of trouble. Today would be his final battle with Uchiha Madara.

He was once a fan of Uchiha Madara and recognized the hero who had been fighting for peace for hundreds of years. But when he truly existed in the ninja world, Uchiha Madara's existence became the source of turmoil in the world.

Even if he confirms the truth of the Infinite Tsukuyomi Project, as long as he lives, he will still find ways to create true peace in his heart. This is the only motivation for him to live.

Uchiha Madara's somewhat extreme personality is extremely dangerous to most people in this world. Who knows... one day he will start to use extreme means to create peace again.

Yakumo likes the current situation very much. Each major ninja village has its own concerns and restrains and influences each other. The Fire Nation's economy is booming.

"It seems like we both made the same decision."

Uchiha Madara's tone was very dull. The truth about the Infinite Tsukuyomi that Yakumo said made him shaken, and he soon changed the subject.

"Even if I may change my plans in the future, I believe... you will definitely destroy my plans, so tonight this place is destined to be your graveyard."

"You think so too, right?"

Uchiha Madara has already felt that the genjutsu mark he set has disappeared, which means that there is a problem with the memory he made up for Namikaze Minato, which means that someone has lifted the genjutsu he carefully prepared.

This meant the failure of his plan tonight, but if Yakumo could be killed here, then he would not be considered a complete failure.

"That's right...Actually, what I pursue is just stability. In order to prevent the future from being affected by your plans, you should die here tonight."

Yakumo replied with a smile, and slowly pulled out the Fumo from the Glory Sword Box.

"The moonlight is beautiful tonight and the scenery here is nice."

"Suitable for a funeral."
