"Alright, you can go."
"White Zetsu will notify you if there are any missions."
After giving his instructions, Madara had White Zetsu escort Kenshi out.
Kenshi was happy to leave. He didn't want to stay in the secret chamber with an old man who could take his life at any moment.
As he walked outside, Kenshi learned from White Zetsu that it was a year after he had passed out.
"Remember, you must never reveal any information about Madara-sama."
Before parting ways, White Zetsu solemnly reminded Kenshi.
"Understood."
Kenshi smiled. Then, seeing White Zetsu about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and asked White Zetsu, "Did the Uzumaki girl from the barrier die back then?"
Guimo had been sealed with the Inner Four Symbols Seal to save him and Ayase, the wife. He wondered what had happened to her daughter, Yezi.
"She didn't die." White Zetsu shook his head.
"Where is she? How is she doing?" Kenshi continued to ask.
If she was doing well, he wouldn't bother her.
After all, being by his side might not be safe.
White Zetsu shook his head again and said, "She was taken away by the Third Raikage. I don't know what's happening to her now, but I imagine she's not doing well."
Back then, shortly after the Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki unleashed his ultimate move, Dust Release - Limit Separation Technique, the Four Red Yang Formation barrier dissipated.
Yezi escaped immediately.
But unfortunately, she happened to be going in the same direction as the Third Raikage.
The Third Raikage, who was worried about not finding any advanced sealing techniques from the Uzumaki clan, wouldn't let go of Yezi, a member of the Uzumaki clan, when he saw her. He immediately kidnapped her.
"Are you going to go to Kumogakure to save that girl?" White Zetsu asked.
"Yes." Kenshi nodded. After all, Guimo had saved his life. Her daughter, Yezi, was still alive. He couldn't just ignore her. Even if he died, he would avenge her.
"You better not make too much noise and make the enemy think of Madara-sama." White Zetsu warned.
He felt that Kenshi had a knack for causing trouble.
But Madara-sama needed to stay hidden now, and the Rinnegan hadn't been nurtured to maturity yet.
Everything needed time. He didn't want too many things to happen that were outside the plan.
"Don't worry, I've always been very low-key... " Kenshi said, suddenly frowning. Then, he looked thoughtfully at White Zetsu.
In Katō Dan's memories... it wasn't someone from Konoha who found him back then!
"You know what's good for you." White Zetsu said and sank into the ground.
Kenshi stared at the ground where White Zetsu had disappeared, his expression gradually turning grim. A cold glint flashed in his eyes.
In his chakra perception, after White Zetsu completely submerged into the ground, he couldn't sense any Wood Release chakra on him anymore. It was as if White Zetsu had become part of the earth.
In his soul perception, he couldn't sense any soul aura on White Zetsu either.
"Bang!"
Kenshi's expression was grim. He thought for a moment and condensed a white bird using Earth Release chakra. After injecting Explosion Release chakra into it, the white bird flapped its wings and carried Kenshi into the air, eight thousand meters high.
"At this height, that White Zetsu guy shouldn't be able to sense me."
"Grass!"
Kenshi stood on the back of the clay bird, unable to hold back a curse. His expression was constantly changing. He had always thought that it was people from Konoha who had found him. He hadn't expected that this might have been Uchiha Madara's operation from the beginning.
It felt really bad to have your life controlled by someone.
But it felt even worse to be manipulated by fate.
Grass!
"What kind of trick did that Madara guy play on me?"
After cursing a few times, Kenshi began to examine his body. Just relying on the Uchiha chakra fluctuations emanating from his chakra shouldn't be able to control his chakra.
Otherwise, he would have been able to control the chakra of the small life inside Ayase, the wife.
So, Madara must have left other means to cooperate.
What kind of... wait.
Kenshi suddenly thought of Obito. Then, he carefully sensed his heart.
"My heart must have been cursed by Uchiha Madara, just like Obito's. It's a curse that can kill me at a critical moment."
Kenshi thought to himself, but no matter how he sensed, he didn't find anything wrong with his heart. He couldn't sense any unusual chakra.
If this had happened before, Kenshi might have thought that there was nothing wrong with him. But after seeing how White Zetsu disappeared from his chakra perception, Kenshi understood that he couldn't sense it because Madara's methods were too advanced.
"It should be... a Six Paths level chakra curse."
Thinking of the giant Outer Path's Demonic Statue in the secret chamber, Kenshi had a faint conclusion in his heart. Only a curse cast by Six Paths level chakra could nullify his chakra perception.
White Zetsu, in a way, was also a lifeform created by Six Paths level Yin-Yang Release. His ability to become one with nature should also be a special ability at the Six Paths level.
With Kenshi's current strength, he obviously couldn't sense Six Paths level jutsu chakra yet.
"I didn't expect that Madara could use some Six Paths level abilities now!"
Kenshi frowned slightly, but after thinking about it carefully, he thought it was reasonable.
Whether it was Madara or Obito in the original work.
They controlled Six Paths level kekkei tōta chakra. The foundation was the Rinnegan combined with the chakra of the nine tailed beasts.
Kenshi guessed that the fusion of the nine tailed beasts' chakra could increase the intensity of the chakra's nature to the Six Paths level.
The Outer Path's Demonic Statue is essentially the husk of the Ten-Tails.
The chakra it carries is the chakra of the nine tailed beasts fused together.
Madara's Rinnegan can summon the Outer Path's Demonic Statue. He gains the power of the Outer Path's Demonic Statue's chakra. He is actually already at the Six Paths level.
It's just that his body is severely aged and he can't exert much strength, so he created White Zetsu to help him.
"For example... tell the Five Great Nations of the ninja world about his hiding location!"
The clay bird flew north. Kenshi was organizing the memories he had obtained from Katō Dan.
Back then, Katō Dan burned his soul to restrain Kenshi's body. His spirit chakra was devoured by Kenshi's Adamantine Binding Chains, and a large part of his spirit memory was absorbed by Kenshi.
Through his memories, Kenshi learned that Katō Dan had used the Spirit Transformation Technique, which he had been looking for.
Soul perception was also a special perception ability of the Spirit Transformation Technique.
Kenshi's shadow clones were seen through, and his main body was always locked because of the unique soul perception ability of the Spirit Transformation Technique. It could distinguish the different soul strengths of the shadow clone and the main body.
Now, Kenshi had copied the spirit chakra from when Katō Dan's spirit invaded his body.
Half an hour later.
Katō Dan's memories were organized. Kenshi, who had obtained the complete memories of the Spirit Transformation Technique, along with the copied spirit chakra, could now use all the abilities of the Spirit Transformation Technique.
At the same time, through Katō Dan's memories, Kenshi had also confirmed that the people who found him in the island near the Arctic Circle weren't from Konoha or the Five Great Nations.
The news came from the underground bounty hunter organization.
Katō Dan and the others had also received the news and went to the area near the Arctic Circle before finding Kenshi.
So, who was more powerful than the Five Great Nations' Anbu in investigating intelligence and finding people, who could find him in the remote Arctic Circle?
Before this, Kenshi had always thought that his chakra perception ability was awesome. As long as someone or something carried chakra, they couldn't get close to him without being detected.
Katō Dan's appearance made him think that someone had mastered a powerful jutsu that could sense him from a long distance.
Until he saw White Zetsu sink into the ground and couldn't sense anything, Kenshi began to have doubts. Now, having obtained Katō Dan's memories, he could finally confirm that it was White Zetsu who had leaked his location.
The purpose... was to control him. That was the biggest purpose.
