"Kid, what you're doing is meaningless."
Uchiha Madara quietly retracted his shadow and simply watched Renya constantly dart and shift across the battlefield.
In his heart, he sneered that this kid really wasn't very bright.
"With your strength, you can't stop me from realizing my ideal. So why do you still oppose me?"
Faced with the Flying Thunder God Technique invented by Senju Tobirama, Uchiha Madara truly didn't have a very good way to deal with it.
As long as Renya kept insisting on stalling for time, sooner or later he would be able to wait until Madara's condition declined.
There was no helping it—he was old now, and his condition was definitely not as good as when he was young.
When that time came, offense and defense would reverse.
With that kid's personality, he would definitely choose to strike with full force…
Uchiha Madara could only try to persuade Renya to hurry up and roll back to Konoha Village before his condition declined too severely.
Stop wasting time here.
"Madara-sama, I already told you—your plan has huge loopholes, and whether it's real or fake is still unknown!"
Renya's voice came from all directions. He didn't dare stay in one place for too long, lest he be ambushed by an invisible shadow.
At this moment, he didn't know that Madara had already withdrawn the shadow.
Actually, Renya had originally wanted to directly tell Uchiha Madara that the "Eye of the Moon" plan was a conspiracy orchestrated entirely by Black Zetsu.
But with Madara's stubborn personality, he definitely wouldn't believe something so outrageous.
So he could only switch to a more moderate approach.
Unfortunately, this approach didn't have much effect either.
To Uchiha Madara, the "Eye of the Moon" plan was the ideal he had upheld for all these years.
If someone told him that his ideal was fake, no one would be willing to believe it.
As for whether it was true or false? You'd only know after seeing it!
Renya knew very clearly in his heart that Madara at this moment was like a gambler who had lost his mind—until he lost everything, he would never stop.
And realizing the "Eye of the Moon" plan was his final chip.
Faced with the stubborn Uchiha Madara, Renya had no good solution.
He could only defeat him first and take him back to the village to talk later.
"Kid, go back. Don't try to persuade me." Uchiha Madara said in a deep voice. "Whether the contents on the stone tablet are true or not, I must give it a try."
"Do you know? The 'Eye of the Moon' is the ideal I've held onto for many years…"
Renya:
"…"
He gave up. After saying so much, none of it had gone in.
He was really out of options.
Damn it, the simple Madara-sama really had been fooled crippled by the naturally evil Black Zetsu.
That damned Black Zetsu—don't ever let me see you!
Otherwise it'll be dead, dead, dead!
Actually, Renya could understand Uchiha Madara's way of thinking—nothing more than a gambler putting all his hope on this single hand.
Then going all in, betting everything, waiting for the moment of success.
Renya stopped using Flying Thunder God to dodge at high speed. He could tell that Madara-sama no longer had any desire to fight.
"Madara-sama, do you really think that making everyone fall into a genjutsu world can achieve peace in the ninja world?"
He stared straight into Uchiha Madara's Rinnegan eyes, trying to see even a trace of emotion within them.
Unfortunately, there was none.
Those eyes held nothing but calm.
"The real world is too painful. What's wrong with a genjutsu world?" Uchiha Madara said expressionlessly.
As long as everyone fell into a beautiful genjutsu world, the ninja world would no longer have war, pain, or death.
Is there really anything wrong with that?
He couldn't understand why Hashirama and Renya both refused to acknowledge his plan.
It could only be said that the two of them had lived in comfort for too long, knowing only the gentle haven of Konoha Village, completely forgetting the suffering of others in the ninja world.
Senju Hashirama's peace was selfish!
It could only temporarily allow the people of Konoha Village to live in a peaceful world, but his plan was different from Hashirama's.
The "Eye of the Moon" plan was selfless—it could allow everyone in the ninja world to live the happy lives they dreamed of.
"Madara-sama, how about this—let me cast a genjutsu on you, and let you spend the rest of your life in a happy genjutsu world. How about it?"
Seeing that persuasion was useless, Renya could only adopt another method.
If the problem couldn't be solved, then solve the person who raised the problem.
As long as Madara-sama entered a genjutsu world and spent the rest of his life there, the crisis of the ninja world could be resolved without sacrificing a single soldier.
I'm simply a genius!
Unfortunately, Uchiha Madara didn't appreciate it.
"Letting only me live a happy life would be too selfish. I want everyone in the ninja world to live happy lives as well!"
Renya: "…"
Good grief—absolutely good grief!
Since when did Madara become so selfless?!
Faced with Madara, Renya was truly completely out of options.
He couldn't win in a fight, and he couldn't win in words.
Could it be that he could only let Uchiha Madara carry out the "Eye of the Moon," this world-destroying plan?
If that really happened, he'd be hung on a tree and wrapped into a mummy in minutes, then spend the rest of his life happily inside Infinite Tsukuyomi.
Tch—thinking about it carefully, it actually sounds pretty nice!
Wait… no!
Renya hurriedly shook his head, throwing out the unrealistic thoughts in his mind.
He didn't believe Infinite Tsukuyomi could last an entire lifetime. Maybe after a few days, he'd be assimilated by the God Tree into a White Zetsu, then die inexplicably.
You had to know that the current White Zetsu were formed from people who had been hung on the tree by Ōtsutsuki Kaguya thousands of years ago.
A living, breathing person turned into a weapon without emotion or pain.
The existence of White Zetsu was entirely an army Ōtsutsuki Kaguya used to counter the possible arrival of other Ōtsutsuki clan members.
The real situation was definitely not as beautiful as described!
Renya seemed to find a breakthrough. He looked at Uchiha Madara and suddenly raised a question.
"Madara-sama, do you know how White Zetsu are formed?"
Uchiha Madara didn't understand why Renya was asking this, but he still patiently explained.
"White Zetsu were cultivated by me by combining Hashirama's cells with the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. Is there a problem with that?"
White Zetsu were creatures he had personally overseen the creation of, so he naturally knew the entire process…
"Madara-sama, you're only half right!"
Renya pointed at the densely packed White Zetsu around them and asked curiously.
"Think carefully first—did you really create that many White Zetsu?"
Uchiha Madara looked at the densely packed White Zetsu around the base and suddenly froze.
That's right—did he really create that many White Zetsu?
The number of White Zetsu before his eyes had already far exceeded the total number he had created back then.
Madara hadn't continuously created White Zetsu without stopping. He had stopped once a certain number was reached.
So where did all these extra White Zetsu come from?!
"Kid, do you know something?"
Uchiha Madara looked at Renya and asked the doubt in his heart.
Since this kid had brought it up on his own, he must have discovered some unknown secret.
"Madara-sama, this matter involves the 'Eye of the Moon' plan…"
