At this time, Black Zetsu asked, "Madara, what should we do next?"
Obito strongly demanded he call him Madara.
Black Zetsu didn't need to have conflict with Obito over such a matter. His current identity was as someone created by Madara and left behind to assist Obito, so there was no need for him to make decisions.
Obito was thinking about the next action. It was one thing that this guy had the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, but now he was even collecting Tailed Beasts, wouldn't that ruin his Eye of the Moon Plan?
Wouldn't that stop him from creating a world with Rin in it?
A guy like that deserves to die.
And what exactly is the opponent collecting Tailed Beasts for? Just simply using them as weapons to increase power? Or is there some other purpose?
Right now, everything is still completely unclear.
He looked at Black Zetsu and said, "You go notify Nagato. We must start collecting the Tailed Beasts. We can't let this fake Uchiha Madara collect the Tailed Beasts before us. Otherwise, our plan won't be able to proceed."
"Okay."
Black Zetsu agreed with this plan. Starting to collect the Tailed Beasts meant that the plan to resurrect Mother was officially beginning. He felt a little excited inside.
"But what about the Eight-Tails that the opponent already collected?"
Obito replied, "Just leave it with him for now. It's best to collect a few more first, and then we'll snatch his later. That'll be fine."
"Not bad, that even saves us the effort." Black Zetsu strongly agreed.
With the Akatsuki's powerful combat strength, not only did they have Nagato with the Rinnegan, but also the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. If it really came to it, they could even summon the real Madara.
That fake Madara couldn't possibly be a match for the real Madara. Otherwise, he wouldn't need to hide his true face.
Immediately, he began to burrow underground and headed to the Hidden Rain Village to notify Nagato.
After Black Zetsu left, Obito began cultivating White Zetsu. This was one of his important trump cards. It was just a bit dull.
But to be able to create a world with Rin, all of this was worth it.

On the other side, Hidden Cloud Village ninja Darui led several ninjas quickly toward Konoha.
This was an order given by the Fourth Raikage.
They had to inform Konoha Village about Uchiha Madara's whereabouts. After all, Uchiha Madara had defected and fled from Konoha Village.
The other purpose was to request help.
A guy like that couldn't be handled by Hidden Cloud Village alone. If they faced him alone, they might pay a heavy price. Uchiha Madara was a man who once shocked the entire ninja world.
At full speed, after a few days, they arrived at the gates of Konoha Village.
After informing the Konoha ninjas guarding the gate, a designated person led them into the village, heading to the Hokage building.
After entering Konoha Village, seeing the lively and peaceful village, and the villagers with smiling faces, he felt a little envious.
Compared to this, Hidden Cloud Village was much more desolate. All because of the mistakes during the previous war. If only he had stopped it back then.
Now, there was no good solution either. He could only make do with daily life. They absolutely must not cause trouble for Konoha again. That would be seeking death.
Inside the Hokage building, Nara Shikaku was focusing on handling the village's affairs.
Currently, all the routine matters in the village were handled by him. After two years of rest and recovery, Konoha Village not only regained vitality but also began to prosper.
Commissioned missions in the village had also increased, and the ninjas' income had risen a lot.
Likewise, public security was very good, almost no one dared to commit crimes.
A rare era of peace.
It was a completely different scene compared to when the Third Hokage was in power.
It was just that he was a bit exhausted, now he felt like he was the one truly in charge of the village.
Only when there were major matters would Uchiha Fugaku, Hyuga Hiashi, and Lady Tsunade make decisions together.
Other small matters were usually handled by him.
Maybe back then, the Third Hokage fearing the Uchiha clan would seize power was a mistake. Because Uchiha Fugaku never showed any intention of fighting for power. Even when there were major matters, it was the three elder advisors discussing and making decisions.
As for Lady Tsunade, she might be pregnant again, otherwise, she wouldn't have taken leave.
Thinking of this, Shikaku couldn't help but smile bitterly. That Uchiha guy was really something. He actually managed to completely win over the princess of Konoha.
You have to know, the former Konoha Princess had such a fiery temper that few dared provoke her.
Hard to imagine, now she already has a second child.
If a woman is willing to have two children for a man, it's enough to prove that this woman has completely submitted.
While sighing, he also received notice from the Hokage building staff, "Elder Shikaku, the envoy from Hidden Cloud Village, Darui, requests an audience."
Hearing this, Shikaku was a bit puzzled. 'What did this guy come for?'
Previously, they were defeated by the Uchiha clan and had to pay ransom that almost shook the village's foundation.
"Let him in."
To know their purpose, a face-to-face talk was necessary. But he wasn't afraid of Hidden Cloud Village having any agenda.
Even though that Uchiha Ryosuke had disappeared for two years, Hidden Cloud Village shouldn't have forgotten being beaten by him, right?
Even without that man, with Konoha's current strength, it would be enough to crush Hidden Cloud Village.
They had enough resources and ninjas. More importantly, unprecedented harmony.
Under the guidance of the staff, Darui went alone into the Hokage office. Ahead, there was a man with braided hair waiting.
He immediately bowed respectfully and said, "I'm Darui of Hidden Cloud Village. This time, I bring important news to inform your village and wish to meet the Fifth Hokage, Lady Tsunade."
