Black Naruto: Shadow Moon

In a secret and deep cave in the Ninja World, Uchiha Madara sat quietly in a dark corner. His body was extremely weak, almost to the point of lingering on.

The Outer Path Demon Statue behind him continuously supplied chakra through thick tubes, maintaining his life which was as weak as a candle in the wind.

There was a gleam of determination in Uchiha Madara's eyes. Although he was old and frail, his heart that refused to surrender was still extremely strong.

His plan had already penetrated into his bones and became the only motivation for his survival.

A few years ago, Madara realized that his life was coming to an end. In order to continue his will, he transplanted his precious Rinnegan to Nagato Uzumaki, a member of the Uzumaki clan who possessed the body of an immortal.

Uchiha Banban knew very well that the sage bodies of the Uzumaki clan possessed extremely strong vitality, which was enough to nourish the Rinnegan and bring it to its best condition.

Uchiha Madara's plan was to let Nagato use the Reincarnation Technique to resurrect him at the appropriate time. To this end, he had already left multiple backup plans on Nagato to ensure the smooth implementation of this plan.

However, during the long period of waiting for resurrection, Uchiha Madara needed a spokesperson who could carry out his "Moon Eye Project".

He monitored the dynamics of the entire ninja world through the Yin-Yang Release he created, the Black Zetsu, and the intelligence network composed of White Zetsu.

White Zetsu's floating technique gave him extremely strong covert reconnaissance capabilities, allowing Uchiha Madara to grasp the movements of major forces in the ninja world.

After a period of observation, White Zetsu sent the detailed information he had collected on the Uchiha clan members to Uchiha Madara.

Uchiha Madara carefully read through the information, looking for the right pieces to carry out his plan.

Just as Uchiha Madara was about to make his next move, Black Zetsu appeared in front of him and calmly and obscurely put forward his own suggestions: "Master Madara, among all the Uchiha clan members, there is a young man named Uchiha Kagezuki who is particularly special. Not only does he possess the Uchiha clan's Mangekyō Sharingan, he also has the blood of the Senju clan, and has demonstrated extremely powerful Wood Release abilities."

Black Zetsu's voice was low and slow, and his concern for Shadow Moon was obviously more than that. According to Black Zetsu's speculation, Uchiha Shadow Moon had the potential to awaken the Rinnegan.

If he could be used to become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki and then use the Rinnegan to activate the Infinite Tsukuyomi, the success rate of resurrecting his mother Kaguya Ōtsutsuki would be greatly increased.

Black Zetsu believed that Uchiha Kagezuki's talent was extraordinary, and even at one point Black Zetsu thought he was the reincarnation of Ashura Chakra.

However, since the reincarnation of Indra of this generation is still alive, it is unlikely that Ashura's chakra will be reincarnated into him. Without the reincarnation of Indra and Ashura's chakra, he has such powerful strength at this age.

Therefore, Black Zetsu believes that Shadow Moon is an extremely rare genius in a thousand years, and his potential is far more than that.

However, after listening to Black Zetsu's advice, a cold light flashed in Uchiha Madara's eyes.

He slowly put down the information in his hand, and after careful consideration, he finally rejected Black Zetsu's proposal: "Uchiha Kagezuki is indeed very powerful, but because he is too powerful and too smart, he is not suitable to be the executor of the 'Moon Eye Project'. People who are too smart are not easy to control, and are not suitable to be my pawns."

Uchiha Madara's voice was low and full of majesty, his eyes penetrated Black Zetsu, as if he saw through everything: "I prefer Uchiha Obito. This kid is sunny and cheerful, not very smart, this kind of person is easier to guide and manipulate. Moreover, he has extreme love, once it is broken, it will turn into extreme hatred. As long as he is allowed to experience enough pain, he will definitely awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan."

Uchiha Madara knew very well that a simple and emotional young man like Obito was the most ideal chess piece in his plan.

All it takes is a carefully planned conspiracy to lead Uchiha Obito into the abyss of darkness, making him the key to his resurrection and the realization of Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Although Black Zetsu was unwilling in his heart, he could only endure and accept Uchiha Madara's decision.

He secretly decided that even though Madara had chosen Obito as a pawn, he would not give up his attention on Uchiha Kagezuki.

Uchiha Kagezuki's talent is so dazzling that Black Zetsu vaguely feels in his heart that Uchiha Kagezuki will inevitably become an important variable in realizing his plan at some critical moment in the future.

"Since Lord Madara has made the decision, I will do my best to assist in the training of Uchiha Obito." Black Zetsu said, his tone still calm, but the turmoil in his heart had not subsided at all.

He knew that this huge chess game involving the fate of the ninja world had just begun.

In this gloomy cave, the conversation between Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu quietly led the future destiny of the ninja world to an unknown direction.

The chosen Uchiha Obito has not yet realized that he will be involved in a huge conspiracy from which there is no turning back.

As time went by, Uchiha Madara's life gradually came to an end, but his obsession with the "Moon Eye Project" remained firm.

Black Zetsu is secretly planning his own plan, and the future of the ninja world is already shrouded in this long conspiracy and darkness.

As night falls, Konoha Village appears particularly peaceful under the cover of darkness.

However, in a secret courtyard in the Uchiha clan's territory, the lights were on.

Uchiha Yingyue stood in the yard with a deep look in his eyes, and he was surrounded by documents related to family affairs.

These documents record the affairs of the Uchiha clan, the movements of the clan members, and the content of their communications with the Konoha high-level officials.

Uchiha Yingyue put down the last document, took a deep breath, and finally completed all the clan affairs for the day.

Uchiha Yingyue did not relax because of this. He knew in his heart that although Konoha Village seemed calm at the moment, future threats were looming over him like a dark cloud.

He knew that Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu were secretly planning a huge conspiracy, and the Otsutsuki clan would be their biggest enemy in the future.

Especially after noticing the loss of contact between Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and Isshiki Ōtsutsuki, other members of the Ōtsutsuki clan will inevitably come to Earth to explore. Their arrival will bring unprecedented disaster to the ninja world.

Uchiha Kagezuki realized that although he was already one of the top strong men in the current ninja world, he was still vulnerable when facing a being of the Six Paths level.

In order to survive and win in future battles, he must constantly improve his strength.

So, Uchiha Yingyue came to the training ground in the backyard of the clan's land. This was where he practiced daily and also where he conducted various forbidden techniques experiments.

He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to circulate his chakra.

The power of Wood Release slowly flowed through his body, and he felt the pulse of the earth, as if the entire land was resonating with him.

As his training progressed, Uchiha Kagezuki began to try to combine his Wood Release with the power of the Sharingan, attempting to develop more powerful ninjutsu.
