Indeed, that Uzumaki Clan was the mastermind behind the Hollows!
The Land of Lightning this time has probably provoked someone they shouldn't have.
To provoke the Uzumaki Clan for selfish desires, and unexpectedly encounter such an enemy... The Two-Tails felt a bit of schadenfreude.
Ever since being handed over to the Kumogakure by Senju Hashirama, the Two-Tails had suffered no less torment in the Kumogakure.
Therefore, regarding the Land of Lightning's predicament, the Two-Tails felt more schadenfreude.
Uzushigakure, Rukongai.
A black and white pitcher plant quietly emerged from the ground.
"Huh? Is this the Uzushigakure? Did we come to the wrong place?"
The white half of the body chattered incessantly, like a motor mouth.
Black Zetsu whispered, "Shut up, do you want us to be discovered?!"
After reminding White Zetsu, Black Zetsu carefully observed the situation in the Uzushigakure. He also had many doubts in his heart.
He had been to the Uzushigakure before, but it was completely different from the current Uzushigakure.
Or rather, in his opinion, these were two completely different countries!
If he hadn't been certain he hadn't taken a wrong turn, he would have expressed the same confusion as White Zetsu.
Is this... really the Uzushigakure?
Black Zetsu controlled his body, using the Mayfly Technique to evade the patrol's sight and quietly infiltrate Rukongai.
Upon entering the street, Black Zetsu didn't feel anything particularly special.
He just felt that it was somewhat desolate.
And the people living here seemed a bit strange.
Dazed and listless, their movements seemed to be pre-arranged, giving off a mechanical feeling.
Black Zetsu had seen this condition on many White Zetsu.
Are these people... really human?
Black Zetsu's heart filled with doubt.
This Uzushigakure was giving him an increasingly unfamiliar feeling.
And when he had come before, the Uzushigakure only had the Uzumaki Clan.
But now there were many other people.
Well, the Uzushigakure had been destroyed once, so it couldn't possibly retain only the Uzumaki Clan.
It was just that the speed of the Uzushigakure' re-emergence was too fast, which gave him the impression that the Uzushigakure had never fallen.
Bypassing the outskirts of Rukongai, Black Zetsu walked further inward.
The deeper he went, the more complete and beautiful the buildings in Rukongai became.
And unlike the people on the outskirts, the people here truly possessed a sense of life.
Everyone's faces also showed various expressions.
The interior of Rukongai and its outskirts seemed to have a sense of hierarchy, like two different worlds.
Strange! Too strange!
This Uzushigakure gave him a very unfamiliar feeling.
It wasn't just the unfamiliarity with the previous Uzushigakure, but an unfamiliarity with the entire Ninja World.
Black Zetsu buried these doubts deep in his heart and continued forward.
When he arrived at the gates of Soul Society Court, a look of shock flashed in Black Zetsu's eyes.
Having lived for so long, it was his first time seeing a country with such architecture.
He first wandered around casually, wanting to see if he could find Uzumaki Nagato.
Although the strangeness of the Uzushigakure made him very eager to investigate, the immediate priority was still Uzumaki Nagato.
After all, the Rinnegan was related to his future plans, and after waiting for a millennium, there could be no more accidents this time.
A moment later, Black Zetsu arrived at the Soul Reaper Academy.
"Is this the Uzushigakure' Ninja Academy?"
But the people of the Uzushigakure didn't seem to be called Shinobi; instead, they had a profession called Shinigami.
He secretly snuck in and listened to a lecture for a while, quickly becoming drowsy.
