I have a hundred clones

In the darkness, Hei Jue was hiding in fear.

Did the Fifth Hokage know something... Will Madara's plan fail... Nagato probably hasn't realized all this yet, well, not yet...

Hei Jue comforted himself that he had waited too long. Thousands of years had passed before he saw a chance to resurrect his mother.

Black Zetsu is the third son born when Otsutsuki Kaguya was sealed. The eldest son and second son are the brothers of Six Paths Sage, who sealed Otsutsuki Kaguya.

Black Zetsu was born according to the will of Otsutsuki Kaguya, and his mission in life is to unlock Otsutsuki Kaguya's seal and help him break out.

But that requires the sacred tree and the infinite Tsukuyomi to release the reincarnation eye.

After the death of Indra and Asura, the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths, and before Madara Uchiha appeared, the Samsara Eye had never appeared in the ninja world.

Madara opened the Mangekyō Sharingan on his own, and later merged with his younger brother's Mangekyō to open the eternal Mangekyō Sharingan. In the final battle, he bit off Hashirama's flesh and blood - although Madara was defeated again in that battle. Hashirama - with the power of Hashirama's flesh and blood, Madara successfully opened the Samsara Eye.

It had been thousands of years, but only at this time did Hei Zetsu see hope of breaking the seal of his mother Kaguya.

Hence the plot of Madara being deceived and Obito being fooled. Madara had always believed that Black Zetsu was the product of his will, so of course he would not reject the Infinite Tsukuyomi Project.

The samsara eyes in Nagato's eye sockets are Madara's eyes. Because Madara is too old and will die soon. In addition to cultivating Obito as his successor, Madara also needs someone to warm up his samsara eye and keep it active, and Uzumaki Nagato is the suitable candidate.

Just in case, I have to tell Obito... But how can that guy Cao Ya be so powerful? Nagato can't even defeat him... That kind of power is a bit like celestial magic...

Hei Jue was full of doubts and couldn't figure out whether Cao Ya's power was magical or physical.

Or, both?

Black Zetsu sneaked into the ground and disappeared near here. Obito couldn't defeat Nagato, so naturally he couldn't defeat Cao Ya. But they could hide in the dark and stir up troubles and cause some things to affect the ninja world.

Black Zetsu is the best at this aspect.

Over the past thousand years, he had done this kind of thing countless times. Compared with him, Obito was like an immature novice.

However, Black Zetsu needs Obito's power, and Black Zetsu itself has no strength.

Cao Ya scanned it calmly. He had noticed Hei Jue's existence just now, but he didn't reveal it.

There is no need to kill Black Zetsu now, otherwise where can we find Obito?

Obito's Kaleidoscope is a divine power, a space-type ability, which is quite tricky.

Therefore, Cao Ya decided to let Obito and Black Zetsu come to him on their own initiative.

The words he just said were, firstly, to remind Nagato that the Rinnegan is not the power of the whirlpool, and to make him think carefully about why he has a pair of Rinnegan; secondly, they were to remind Black Zetsu to go find Obito. Then come and take a peek at his Hokage, figure out his weaknesses, and devise conspiracies.

Of course, if Cao Ya realizes that Black Zetsu and Obito exist at the same time, he will take action directly.

Glancing at Nagato, still deep in thought, Cao Ya said calmly:

"No matter where those eyes came from, they are your eyes now. Use them well. If anyone comes to dig out your eyes, kill them on the spot."

Nagato woke up from his dream. Yes, it doesn't matter how he got these eyes. It doesn't matter whether he was born with them or they were artificially transplanted. He just needs to make good use of the power of these eyes. Just strive for that goal and that’s it.

However, Nagato still felt a little wary.

He looked at Cao Ya and thanked:

"thanks for your reminder."

Cao Ya waved his hand, looked at the black sphere several miles away, and said:

"Nagato, can you release the Raikage and the two jinchūriki?"

Nagato was a little surprised and asked:

"Why?"

Xiao Nan was also surprised and said:

"The Cloud Hidden Village is here to attack Konoha. Just let them die. Why should we save them?"

Cao Ya sternly described the significance of Thunder Shadow to his follow-up plan. If the Kingdom of Thunder is conquered, if Lei Shadow admits defeat and is willing to continue to serve as the leader of the Kingdom of Thunder, then the people of the Kingdom of Thunder can be stabilized. Cao Ya Then we can cleanse the old nobles in a big way.

Otherwise, if the whole country of Thunder resists, too many people will die.

Cao Ya doesn't care about death, but if it can be avoided, why go on a killing spree?

Nagato said in shame:

"Alas, after Yahiko's death, I can't compare to you in this regard."

Xiaonan said fondly:

"If Yahiko is still here, he will definitely become your best confidant."

Cao Ya smiled:

"Maybe."

He also added:

"If the Raikage doesn't know how to look, then kill him on the spot."

Nagato nodded:

"good."

Later, Nagato recalled the Six Paths of Payne. Cao Ya was very careful when he took action and did not really destroy the six puppets, especially the hell path responsible for maintenance.

Nagato released the Earth Explosion Star Technique, and the Fourth Raikage Ai, along with the eight-tailed jinchuriki Kirabi and the two-tailed jinchuriki, fell from the wooden man into the broken mountain forest. Their faces were pale and they greedily breathed in the fresh air.

I almost... almost suffocated myself to death...

Lei Ying noticed something and stood up suddenly, but felt dizzy and almost fell down again.

Kirabi and Yumu were not in a hurry to stand up, and just sat on the ground.

Anyway, we lost the battle and almost lost everyone. Now that we have been rescued, no matter what the reason is, we can't fight against the attackers. Let's look at the attackers first.

However, they were still surprised when they saw Cao Ya, the two people beside them, and Six Paths Payne.

"The Fifth Hokage, are those your subordinates?" Raikage looked ugly and led his army to attack Konoha, but was almost beaten to death by Konoha.

Cao Ya shook his head and said:

"My friends, my allies, not my men."

After a brief introduction, he announced in a calm tone:

"Raikage, Cloud Hidden Village has been defeated."

Lei Ying muttered:

"I know, are you here to humiliate me?"

The three strongest of them all lost. If Cao Ya and those unknown strong men turned around and attacked Yunyin's large army, Yunyin Village would probably be destroyed.

For such a strong person, it is possible to defeat ten thousand with one.

Cao Ya smiled, waved his hand and said:

"Of course not. If you give an order casually to the lords and nobles of the Land of Thunder, you will be beaten to death. If it weren't for me, you would really be dead. Don't you have any idea?"

Lei Ying was startled for a moment, then suddenly understood, and said in astonishment:

"You want me to help you?"

Cao Ya corrected:

"Not helping me, but helping yourself."

After a pause, he said calmly:

"If you agree, the Kingdom of Thunder will no longer exist, but Cloud Hidden Village can still exist. You will still be the Raikage. In the future, you will be the boss of the Kingdom of Thunder."

Upon hearing this, Raikage's expression changed slightly.
