In the dark cave, only a faint light was projected, far from enough to illuminate the entire cave.
If one took a closer look, they would discover a hunched figure sitting on top of a protruding rock.
"Hihihihihihi-"
With a soft sound, a completely white figure slowly emerged from the ground behind him.
"Yes, their team has now reached the edge of Wood Leaf Village, and I'm afraid they will attack Wood Leaf soon."
White Zetsu said softly, his tone was very casual, as if he was talking about an interesting thing.
Hearing his words, the hunchbacked figure slowly turned his head, only to see a skinny old face in front of him.
However, on that aged face, there was a pair of incomparably deep eyes that were as dark as the night, making it hard for people to ignore them.
He looked at White Zetsu quietly and said with a hoarse voice.
"Inform Tokino to take advantage of this opportunity to let the Mist Village participate in this muddy water."
In this regard, White Zetsu froze for a moment, looked at him doubtfully, and said softly.
"Didn't you say that you want Tokino to hide in the Mist Village and secretly control it? After all, Nagato's position has been found. When the time comes, we just need to arrange an opportunity for Tokino to contact him."
The old man closed his eyes slightly and shook his head gently, his long white hair swayed with it.
His voice was hoarse.
"Tokino mentioned before that the Mizukage is getting out of control. We can take advantage of this opportunity to kill him in this war."
"Letting the Mist Village participate in the war won't expose us. What we really need to do is to find the most suitable replacement for the Mizukage."
"The Mizukage's people have been arranged for Column Force. Tokino mentioned him to me, and it seems that he has some doubts about our tracks. So, let's make him our puppet to control the Mist Village."
Hearing the old man's words, White Zetsu's face couldn't help but show a light smile.
"Madara -sama, you really have a bad taste, making the most loyal people of your village become the culprit of persecuting your own village … Just thinking about it makes me feel desperate."
Madara didn't care about White Zetsu's laughter, he just closed his eyes and continued.
"These are just insignificant things. In any case, we must ensure that Nagato is under our control."
At this point, he suddenly opened his eyes. A bright light flashed in his eyes as he spoke in a deep voice.
"You said that this war was started by that kid named Yuusuke Fuji. I really didn't expect that he could provoke several major ninja villages at such a young age …"
"Such a powerful guy, even in the era of Hashirama and I, was far from a nobody."
"But it's a pity that since Nagato is under his Las Noches Palace at this time, he can only be our enemy."
"I'm afraid that he hasn't discovered the true power of the Rinnegan …"
"Moreover, I don't think that the Las Noches Palace he formed alone can completely destroy Wood Leaf, let alone destroy the Ninja Era … This is not so easy …"
At this point, his eyes flashed, and he said in a hoarse voice.
"When the time comes, inform Tokino to cooperate with Nagato to deal with him together. After all … I don't like such an outstanding guy to be too active on this continent … This will interfere with my plan."
Hearing Madara's words, White Zetsu's eyes flashed slightly, and he whispered.
"I know what to do, Madara -sama."
Madara stretched out his thin hand and waved slightly, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Go down, and convey my order to Tokino. That kid is also a rare genius among the younger generation of the Uchiha clan … Unfortunately …"
Before he could finish his words, he slowly closed his eyes, looking like a doddering old man who was resting with his eyes closed.
White Zetsu glanced at him, and after leaving a spore, he slowly sank into the soil.
The cave once again fell into silence.
Just under the faint light, a huge shadow was standing in it. No one knows how long it has been there, but with the help of the faint light, the tip of the iceberg was faintly revealed, but it was terrifying.
.....
In a quiet forest, a group of people was quietly waiting here.
They were all wearing the same black and white clothes, and some of them were holding a golden coin in their hand, throwing it into the air from time to time and then catching it, looking bored.
Some of them closed their eyes and sat on the ground, practicing without being disturbed by the outside world.
Some of them looked around with an arrogant face, and only when they glanced at the back of the person standing calmly at the front, did they restrain themselves.
At this moment, his gaze on the back of the figure froze slightly, and he immediately shifted his gaze to the side.
He saw that the tall figure slowly opened his deep and calm eyes, and the corner of his mouth evoked an inexplicable smile.
"Ulquiorra, I'll leave for a moment, remember to guard this place."
"Whoosh!"
As the magnetic voice slowly fell in the field, the tall figure suddenly shook and instantly disappeared from the spot.
"I understand, Master Aizen."
Beside him, an expressionless young man bowed his head slightly with a respectful look.
Although everyone on the field was a little strange about Aizen's departure, they didn't say anything.
Seeing this scene, behind him, the old man who looked arrogant couldn't help but sneered and stared at the young man in disdain.
"Ulquiorra, you have always been so respectful to that guy, don't you have any thoughts about coming to this new world?"
Hearing the old man's words, Ulquiorra slowly turned his head and looked at him. His pair of green eyes were as calm as a lake, and he said calmly.
"Balegan, your desire for power is too strong. In human terms, you are an overly ambitious guy."
In response, Balegan smiled disdainfully and said in a low voice.
"This old man has the invincible power to look down on all creatures. I was born to be a king, isn't that good?"
Ulquiorra looked at him and said softly.
"But even so, you were easily defeated by Master Aizen. This proves that you are not suitable to be a king, and this crown belongs to Master Aizen."
Balegan's face was gloomy, but he still glanced at him and said in a deep voice.
"But that was in the past. In this new world, there is still room for everything, including you. The two of us can work together …"
Before he finished his words, he was interrupted by Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra looked at him indifferently and said in a flat voice.
"Master Aizen gave me power, and now I have found something that I have always been puzzled about."
At this point, he gently placed his hand on his chest and continued.
"However, in these complicated emotions, there is only one … ambition that you have. To me, assisting Master Aizen is my everything."
"The purpose of my life is to help Master Aizen achieve his dream … and you … Balegan, remember, everything in the past is in the past."
"Remember this firmly. If you dare to have such thoughts again, I will punish you on behalf of Master Aizen …"
"The members of the Ten Blades don't need ambition. We … just need to be a blade that is sharp enough to cut through all obstacles."
Ulquiorra said these words and stared at Balegan calmly. Under his indifferent gaze, Balegan's face was extremely ugly. He coldly snorted and said in a low voice.
"Hmph, I didn't expect you to become such a pedantic guy …"
.....
.....
"Forget it, this old man understands what you mean."
In the end, under Ulquiorra's gaze, Balegan was defeated and said unwillingly.
