Uchiha: Starting as the Jinchuriki of Tobirama Chapter 660 - 225: Not a Beneficiary, But a Pioneer Betting

"What am I doing, haven’t I been telling you all along? Zetsu..."

Aomi glanced indifferently at the suddenly agitated Black Zetsu, speaking in an emotionless tone, "Did you not understand before?"

"How could I not understand! But why do you want to use Kaguya as a filter!"

Black Zetsu’s expression contorted with rage; it felt like Aomi was mocking it for amusent, claiming he wanted to burn himself to confront the enemy, as if sacrificing his life to protect Kaguya...

In the end, compared to the rebellious Six Paths Sage, Aomi was far more unreasonable!

The Six Paths Sage rely imprisoned Kaguya within the Chibaku Tensei...

This Aomi, he wants Kaguya dead!

After Black Zetsu understood the power of Gaia Consciousness and the God of Otsutsuki... it couldn’t imagine what fate would befall Kaguya if she were to bear that consciousness as a filter?

Would she go mad or be possessed?

In any case, the outco couldn’t be good...

Black Zetsu suddenly thought of a scene.

In those tis of masquerading as Uchiha Madara’s creation, servant, being at the beck and call of that old man, though ticulous on the surface, in its heart, Black Zetsu would often indulge in sinister fantasies—

The so-called savior Uchiha Madara, upon becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and releasing the Infinite Tsukuyomi, would imdiately beco the dium for Kaguya’s resurrection.

At that mont, Uchiha Madara’s expression would imdiately shift from satisfied to terrified in an instant...

Whenever Black Zetsu imagined this, an inner sense of joy would arise.

That would surely be a sight it enjoyed!

But the problem was, when Aomi revealed his plan, Black Zetsu involuntarily replaced the imagined disgraceful face of Uchiha Madara with Kaguya’s visage...

Truly, truly unacceptable to Black Zetsu!

"Zetsu, I find you have a bias against ." Aomi narrowed his eyes, shaking his head slightly, "Why do you think I harbor ill will towards Kaguya?"

"She is important to you, but she is equally important to ."

"I would not harm her."

Black Zetsu trembled with rage!

Uchiha Aomi, you claim to bear no ill will towards Kaguya! Look at what you’re planning; it’s as if you’re afraid she won’t die...

"Hold on, don’t be hasty, listen to ."

Aomi slowly walked towards Black Zetsu, placing a hand on its shoulder, "Co, sit down."

Though filled with anger, Black Zetsu, with its small stature, could do nothing against Aomi, who had recently smashed him with an Inflated Truth-Seeking Orb. It could only sit down aggrieved, silently praying internally.

Praying that Aomi was not a crazed lunatic!

"Do you think I want to use Kaguya as this filter? I just have no choice..."

A shadow crossed Aomi’s eyes, "The enemy is too powerful, and the ti left to is scarce! I don’t have enough ti to create a qualified firewall, so I have to let Kaguya take over..."

"I admit, it’s a gamble."

"But I have my reasons for doing so!"

"Even if you and Kaguya don’t understand , I still have to find a way to protect both of you... do you think I have been sharing my plans and abilities with you for re amusent?"

Aomi and Black Zetsu’s gazes t, his tone carrying a deep-seated exhaustion and an undertone of unshown restlessness:

"I want you to understand , Zetsu... fighting alone isn’t a pleasant experience."

Still in anger, when Black Zetsu saw Aomi’s expression, it trembled inside.

Over the millennia, Black Zetsu had encountered countless individuals... In its role as a competent hand influencing from the shadows, Black Zetsu had honed its ability to read expressions to the maximum.

From an expression, a look, a subtle action, Black Zetsu could uncover a genuine corner of a person’s heart.

If not for this, Black Zetsu could never have accompanied successive Indra reincarnations.

And Aomi’s eyes gave Black Zetsu an intuitive feeling that its brother, indeed, was trapped in a struggle within him, contrary to its persistent suspicion of a malicious mindset to toy with it.

Could it be that I’ve misunderstood Aomi all along?

This thought erged from the depths of Black Zetsu’s heart, unbidden.

"No way! How can I be misled by just a gaze! This is Uchiha Aomi, the most deceptive and cunning man in the Ninja World..."

Black Zetsu jolted back to reality, repeatedly warning itself internally not to fall for Aomi’s ploy, attempting to respond strongly against Aomi’s nonsense!

Yet, when it spoke, its tone inexplicably softened: "You... but why are you doing this? It’s not that I don’t understand you, just..."

Halfway through speaking, Black Zetsu couldn’t continue...

Why am I speaking so gently? The person before is a heinous villain intending to take Kaguya’s life!

Could it be that, deep down, I feel Aomi is actually a good person?

Even using Kaguya as a filter has unspeakable difficulties!? How absurd...

Black Zetsu was shocked by its abnormal behavior.

"A filter, though it sounds simple, finding a suitable candidate is exceedingly difficult..."

Aomi sighed, his gaze heavily fixed on the small brook before him. Watching the carefree little fish reflected within, he continued:

"This principle is similar to being a Jinchuriki... not everyone can be a Tailed Beast Jinchuriki, just as similar logic applies to why you’ve always selected Uchiha Madara..."
