As long as I have control over Uchiha Madara's body...
The future direction of the Ninja World will completely fall into Akihara Kagura's hands.
Because Black Zetsu needs Uchiha Madara to be resurrected to initiate the true Moon Eye Plan, a plan whose true form Uchiha Obito and Nagato cannot grasp.
Only Uchiha Madara can truly grasp it.
However, with Black Zetsu handing Madara's body over to Akihara Kagura, the initiative to start the Moon Eye Plan also fell into Akihara Kagura's hands.
If Akihara Kagura is unwilling to give up Madara's body, even Black Zetsu has no way to resurrect Madara.
Of course…
Black Zetsu believes that Akihara Kagura will certainly soil-resurrect Uchiha Madara.
But…
This time, Black Zetsu made a miscalculation.
Black Zetsu waited for news of Madara's resurrection but it never came.
Black Zetsu can contact Madara remotely, and once Madara is resurrected, he will surely reach out to what he sees as his will. Yet, this remote contact hasn't occurred.
To find out why Madara hasn't been resurrected yet, Black Zetsu and White Zetsu rushed to the Root Base, seeking to understand Akihara Kagura's reasons for hesitating to resurrect Madara quietly, only for Akihara Kagura to give them an answer that made their skin crawl.
"I want to conduct some research on Madara's body."
Akihara Kagura's answer made Black Zetsu somewhat anxious.
No…
You, this guy...
At this moment, doing research!
At the critical point of the Moon Eye Plan, what are you researching now?
Black Zetsu could only remind Akihara Kagura, hoping he might be more rational: "The Moon Eye Plan is about to succeed; we cannot lack Madara's power..."
This time…
This is the closest I've ever been to success!
Without Madara's resurrection, what's the point of resurrecting the Ten-tails? It will certainly draw the attention of the Six Paths Sage, who constantly monitors the Ninja World!
"No rush."
Akihara Kagura glanced at Black Zetsu and White Zetsu, refusing Black Zetsu's proposal: "I've studied Madara's body and discovered something surprising. The Rinnegan is the endpoint of the Sharingan's evolution. I want to research how to obtain the Rinnegan..."
"..."
Black Zetsu fell silent.
"I can tell you."
This creature, always claiming to be Madara's will, had no choice but to divulge a hidden truth of the Uchiha Clan: "To awaken the Rinnegan, the prerequisite is at least evolving the Mangekyo Sharingan into the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan..."
"Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan?"
Akihara Kagura seemed very curious about this name.
"Correct."
Black Zetsu nodded, actively explaining the method: "Excessive use of the Mangekyo Sharingan causes Uchiha to go blind, but the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan grants eternal ocular power. The necessary condition to gain the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan is for an Uchiha to awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan and then transplant a pair of Mangekyo Sharingan from a blood relative..."
Black Zetsu even used Uchiha Sasuke from the Root as an example: "For instance, if Uchiha Sasuke awakened his Mangekyo Sharingan, he could gain the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan by transplanting Uchiha Itachi's eyes, and the same applies..."
"I want to verify it first."
Akihara Kagura taps his fingers on the table carelessly, bringing up the matter: "Uchiha Sasuke has always wanted to kill Uchiha Itachi..."
"Let the brothers kill each other..."
Black Zetsu didn't disapprove of this matter and took the initiative to advocate: "Coincidentally, Uchiha Itachi has also always wanted to kill his brother and take his brother's eyes... Let Uchiha Sasuke awaken the Mangekyo Sharingan, let the brothers kill each other, to verify our truth."
Whether Uchiha Itachi or Uchiha Sasuke awakened the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, it could potentially add another pair of Rinnegan to the Ninja World in the future.
Thus…
It could also serve as a backup plan for the Moon Eye Plan.
"I hope what you've said is true…"
Akihara Kagura squinted, showing a hint of curiosity: "I hope this time I can also be dazzled..."
"Of course."
Black Zetsu dared not refuse Akihara Kagura's opinion.
"By the way."
Akihara Kagura suddenly asked while looking at Black Zetsu and White Zetsu: "I want to kill Uchiha Obito and Nagato and personally complete the Moon Eye Plan. Do you have any thoughts?"
"!!!"
Black Zetsu and White Zetsu were simultaneously shocked.
What's wrong with this group in the Ninja World?
Uchiha Obito was always secretly longing for control of the Moon Eye Plan, and now even Akihara Kagura wants to lead the Moon Eye!
Akihara Kagura looked at Black Zetsu and White Zetsu, earnestly proposing: "Only I can lead the Moon Eye Plan to success..."
"..."
Black Zetsu and White Zetsu were skeptical.
Yet, they couldn't speak the truth.
Just with Akihara Kagura's power, before the Ten-tails' full resurrection, he really could decide whether the Moon Eye Plan would succeed. However, handing over the Moon Eye Plan to Akihara Kagura seemed somewhat unreliable...
"Forget it."
Akihara Kagura shook his head, tapping his desk lightly: "Let's table this for now; let's prepare for the duel between Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke first!"
"Okay."
Black Zetsu and White Zetsu nodded.
Yet, after they left, Akihara Kagura revealed a mysterious smile that left the nearby White Zetsu Haku confused.
