Chapter 294: Let Him Also Experience the Feeling of Having His Life Controlled
"My Will, tell me, what has happened in the years since I died?" Uchiha Madara looked at Tobi, who was disguised as Black Zetsu.
"Yes! Lord Madara," Tobi nodded. "After you died, Obito went to Konoha and released the Nine-Tails. However, he was killed by the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, at the cost of his life."
Hearing this, Uchiha Madara's expression changed slightly, and he cursed in a low voice, "Useless!"
He truly had not expected that the pawn he had spent so much effort cultivating would be killed just like that.
"In order for the Eye of the Moon Plan to proceed smoothly, I had no choice but to approach Lord Douhuan," at this time, the Black Zetsu played by Tobi moved aside a little, allowing Uchiha Douhuan to appear completely before Uchiha Madara. "Lord Douhuan is very supportive of the implementation of the Eye of the Moon Plan."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Madara once again sized up Uchiha Douhuan. Uchiha Douhuan, on the other hand, wore a slight smile, his eyes filled with reverence for this ancestor, Uchiha Madara.
Uchiha Madara's eyes narrowed. He then looked at Tobi, signaling for him to continue.
"Then, because of the exposure of Obito's identity, that scummy Shimura Danzō insisted that Obito was a death soldier specially trained by the Uchiha clan to subvert Konoha. The Uchiha and Konoha thus completely broke off relations. If it weren't for Lord Douhuan becoming the head of the Uchiha clan, leading the Uchiha clan to launch a coup, becoming the Fifth Hokage, and then purging the high-level officials of Konoha, the Uchiha clan would have been annihilated."
"Is that so?" Uchiha Madara once again looked at Uchiha Douhuan. "You are the Fifth Hokage now?"
Whether the Uchiha clan was annihilated or not didn't matter to Uchiha Madara. Anyway, when the Uchiha clan didn't choose to follow him back then, he no longer had any attachment to this clan. But now, an Uchiha clan member had actually become the Hokage, a position that even he had never held. This couldn't help but make Uchiha Madara look at Uchiha Douhuan in a new light.
"This junior is untalented and barely managed to become this Fifth Hokage," Uchiha Douhuan said with a humble expression. "Compared to the great achievements of Lord Madara in the past, there is still a long way to go."
Uchiha Madara looked at Uchiha Douhuan's appearance, his brows slightly furrowed. For some reason, he did not particularly like this young junior of the family before him. The feeling this young junior gave him was very similar to the scummy Senju Tobirama.
However, in the current situation, according to what his will had said, since Uchiha Douhuan was also willing to carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan, Uchiha Madara still intended to observe first.
"How far has the Eye of the Moon Plan progressed now?" Uchiha Madara asked.
"We already have six Tailed Beasts in our hands: the Two-Tails, Three-Tails, Five-Tails, Six-Tails, Seven-Tails, and Nine-Tails. It's only a matter of time before we get the One-Tail. The only ones not in our grasp are Iwagakure's Four-Tails and the Cloud's Eight-Tails," Uchiha Douhuan said.
"So many?" Uchiha Madara was also stunned upon hearing this. He had thought that Black Zetsu and this contemporary Uchiha clan head had reincarnated him because the Tailed Beast capture was not going smoothly. But he hadn't expected their speed to be so fast.
"Yes," Uchiha Douhuan said. "For the sake of the Eye of the Moon Plan, I, as the Hokage, have launched a war against the Land of Earth and the Land of Lightning. The war situation is very smooth. Soon, the Tailed Beasts will be captured."
"War?" Uchiha Douhuan frowned slightly.
"Yes. I know that Lord Madara, who co-founded Konoha with Lord First Hokage, may not like war. However, for the sake of the Eye of the Moon Plan, all these sacrifices are worthwhile. After all, in the perfect world created by the Infinite Tsukuyomi technique, everyone will be revived and will have everything they ever dreamed of, right?" A trace of fanaticism appeared on Uchiha Douhuan's face as he said excitedly.
Uchiha Madara nodded, the doubt on his face slightly lessened. To move forward without hesitation after establishing a goal—this was indeed the appearance that an outstanding junior of their Uchiha clan should have.
"Then why did you reincarnate me?" Uchiha Madara asked.
"Uh..." Uchiha Douhuan hesitated upon hearing this.
"Hmm?" A trace of impatience appeared on Uchiha Madara's face, and he frowned. "If you have something to say, say it. Why are you dawdling?"
"It's like this, Lord Madara. In the process of collecting the Tailed Beasts, we encountered a fellow named Ōtsutsuki Isshiki. That fellow calls himself a god. He is also collecting the Tailed Beasts. We had a conflict with him, and unfortunately..." a trace of shame appeared on Uchiha Douhuan's face. "I am not his match."
"You are not his match?" Uchiha Madara frowned. During the Third Great Ninja War, it wasn't that he hadn't observed the situation on the Mist's side. He still remembered the sight of Uchiha Douhuan oppressing an entire village by himself. Uchiha Madara admitted that at the other's age, he definitely did not have such strength. But now the other was actually asking him for help because his strength was insufficient?
Uchiha Madara did not doubt Uchiha Douhuan's words, because in terms of the Uchiha's character, if it wasn't truly impossible to defeat, one would never admit one's own weakness.
"Yes, his strength is too strong. The dōjutsu of my Mangekyo Sharingan is no match for him at all," in Uchiha Douhuan's eyes, there were three parts shame, three parts unwillingness, three parts helplessness, and one part expectation for Uchiha Madara.
Uchiha Madara frowned, then understood. Compared to himself, this junior before him had no living close relatives, so his Mangekyo Sharingan could not be promoted. So his strength improvement had gotten stuck?
"What is your dōjutsu?" Uchiha Madara asked at this time.
"My dōjutsu is a technique that enhances my perception and the destructive power of my ninjutsu. It's nothing special," Uchiha Douhuan said.
Of course, Uchiha Douhuan would not tell the other the true effect of his dōjutsu. Anyway, if he didn't say, others wouldn't be able to see the specific function of his dōjutsu.
"Is that so?" Uchiha Madara nodded. No wonder when he was observing Uchiha Douhuan back then, he found that the other could remain untouched under the siege of enemies several hundred times his number, as well as his far-beyond-ordinary Lightning Release power. So it was this kind of dōjutsu effect.
"If my dōjutsu were a little stronger, I wouldn't have been so helpless against that guy," Uchiha Douhuan said through gritted teeth.
"Hmph, don't attribute your own weakness to your dōjutsu. My dōjutsu is also a similar type that enhances the physical body," Uchiha Madara said with a cold snort.
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Douhuan was silent for a moment before saying, "Lord Madara's lesson is right."
"Hmph," Uchiha Madara snorted coldly again, then sat up. "Does the enemy you encountered have any tricky abilities?"
"He has an ability to freely control the enlargement and reduction of matter from a distance. And then, he can open a special space-time gate and summon a kind of extremely powerful black cube to attack," Uchiha Douhuan said respectfully.
"I see. I understand," Uchiha Madara moved his wrist, then turned his head abruptly and stared deadly at Uchiha Douhuan. "One last question, junior. You are so enthusiastic about the Eye of the Moon Plan. Don't tell me you want to become the Jinchuriki of the Ten-Tails?"
As Uchiha Madara's voice fell, the atmosphere in the cave instantly became tense. Uchiha Madara's chakra began to surge. When it came to the Ten-Tails, Uchiha Madara did not trust anyone, especially when he had no way to counter Uchiha Douhuan.
However, facing Uchiha Madara's pressure, Uchiha Douhuan's expression was as usual. At the same time, a slightly embarrassed expression appeared on his face again. He scratched his head and then said, "Oh, by the way, Lord Madara, there is another very important matter for which I reincarnated you. And that is, the final Infinite Tsukuyomi technique may need you to complete it."
"Oh?" Uchiha Madara's brow furrowed upon hearing this, but he slightly restrained his aura. "That is the power of the nine Tailed Beasts combined into one, the Ten-Tails. Aren't you tempted at all?"
"Compared to getting the Ten-Tails, I would rather revive Uncle Kaito, who died protecting me in the war," Uchiha Douhuan said.
"Heh heh, besides, Lord Madara, you may not know, but the fact that Lord Douhuan is not good at genjutsu, although it is a secret of Konoha, has been known throughout the ninja world for these past few years," at this time, the Black Zetsu disguised by Tobi said with a sly smile from the side.
"Hey! Give me some face in front of Lord Madara!" Uchiha Douhuan said to Black Zetsu, a look of annoyance on his face.
"You're not good at genjutsu?" Uchiha Madara's eyes widened instantly. "As a member of the Uchiha clan, you've even awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, yet you're not good at genjutsu?"
Uchiha Madara did not doubt Black Zetsu. After all, in his cognition, Black Zetsu was the incarnation of his will that completely obeyed his orders.
"Lord Madara, I really don't have any talent in this area... I have brought shame to the family," Uchiha Douhuan lowered his head in shame.
"Hmph, my Uchiha clan has dominated the ninja world with Fire Release and genjutsu since ancient times. As the current clan head, how can you walk with a limp?" Uchiha Madara snorted coldly and lectured.
Uchiha Douhuan: ...
If you really count it like that, then it's not that I'm limping on one leg, but that both my legs are broken.
However, although Uchiha Madara said so, he felt much more at ease with Uchiha Douhuan in his heart. After all, someone like Uchiha Douhuan, who had an obsession with reviving a relative and posed no threat to his position as the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki, was the best kind of tool, wasn't he? You must know, back then he had to use a curse seal to guard against Obito. And Uchiha Douhuan's genjutsu proficiency couldn't support the Infinite Tsukuyomi. If he wanted to use the Infinite Tsukuyomi to revive his relatives, then he could only be loyal to him.
"Inform me of the detailed intelligence on that fellow later," Uchiha Madara looked at Black Zetsu and instructed. "As for you, go and handle the matters on the battlefield first. Since you've become the Hokage, then don't tarnish this name. Understand?"
"Yes! Lord Madara! Loyalty! Sincerity!" Uchiha Douhuan stood at attention and saluted.
"What's this?" Uchiha Douhuan's action directly stumped Uchiha Madara, and he immediately frowned.
"Lord Madara, this is the latest etiquette of Konoha. Douhuan is paying his respects to you," Tobi said.
"There's no meaning in doing these formal things," Uchiha Madara said with a cold eye. "Just do your own things well."
After speaking, Uchiha Madara got up and walked out of the rock cave, not noticing at all the expression on Tobi's face, which had instantly changed after hearing his words.
"Lord Madara, where are you going?" Uchiha Douhuan asked hurriedly upon seeing this.
"Of course, to take back my own things," Uchiha Madara said.
"Uh, before that, aren't you going back to Konoha to see the clan? There are many children in the clan who admire you very much," Uchiha Douhuan asked.
"There's no need for that," Uchiha Madara said.
For Uchiha Madara, since the Uchiha clan did not choose to go with him back then, he couldn't be bothered to worry about them now.
"Then is there anything I can do for you?" Uchiha Douhuan pressed.
"Just do what you should do. If there is a need, I will naturally come to you," Uchiha Madara said as he walked out. After walking a few steps, Uchiha Madara suddenly turned back. A pair of purple Rinnegan appeared in his eyes. He stared at Uchiha Douhuan and said, "Also, junior, there was one thing you said wrong just now. I do not hate war."
With that, Uchiha Madara left the rock cave without looking back.
After Uchiha Madara left, the humble expression on Uchiha Douhuan's face instantly vanished. He said with a cold laugh, "The old thing is quite an actor."
"Kaka, that old fellow has fallen for it," at this time, Tobi also came to Uchiha Douhuan's side and said with a smile on his face.
"The old thing has only taken the bait initially. In the future, I'll have to trouble you to continue maintaining the plan. I'll be going first. You guys can have fun with him in this Kamui world," Uchiha Douhuan nodded and said.
"Yes! Kaka, mission guaranteed to be completed!" Tobi immediately stood at attention and saluted. "Loyalty! Sincerity!"
"Loyalty," Uchiha Douhuan returned the salute.
Soon, the pattern of the Mangekyo Sharingan in Uchiha Douhuan's eyes changed for a moment, transforming into the appearance of the Kamui Mangekyo Sharingan, and his body also slowly disappeared.
Outside, Uchiha Douhuan's figure slowly emerged. Kakashi had been waiting on the side for a long time.
After Uchiha Douhuan appeared, Kakashi immediately applied a Transcription Seal of the dōjutsu that opens the Kamui space to Uchiha Douhuan.
After doing all this, Kakashi then asked, "Was that just now Uchiha Madara?"
"Yes," Uchiha Douhuan nodded. "An old thing who hides in the shadows, thinking he can control everything. It can be said that all the tragedies of you and your teammates were planned by this old thing."
Upon hearing this, Kakashi's pair of fists instantly clenched tightly.
"If you want, the two of us can go in right now and grind that old thing to dust," Uchiha Douhuan said.
"No need," Kakashi took a deep breath and calmed down, then said with a cold laugh. "Just as you said, let him also experience the feeling of having his life controlled."
