Chapter 412: Unexpected Waves
Somewhere in a hidden underground hideout in Mountain's graveyard,
Swirl
Obito walks out of a swirling portal.
"Zetsu! Most of our plans underwent unexpected turns. We can't follow the original plan anymore. The betrayal of Nagato and the loss of most Akatsuki members have affected our plans negatively."
"Looks like you failed to capture the Nine-tails, again!" Black Zetsu walks out of the darkness.
"Until now, your performance was better than my expectations. But now how disappointing!"
"Things never go according to our comfort but run according to their schedule. Nagato's betrayal might have impeded our plans, but there is always a replacement."
Ayaka's face appears in his eyes.
"Initially, I planned to test the limit of the jutsu and perhaps capture the Nine-tails in the process. However, I managed to find a replacement for Nagato. Though it will be a bit tricky to capture her."
"Who?!" Black Zetsu narrows his eyes.
"It's this girl." Obito takes out a picture of Ayaka.
"Ayaka Uchiha, the younger sister of Izuna Uchiha! Her chakra reserves are bountiful and she is an Uchiha to boot. Also, her body seems strong enough to bear the burden of Rinnegan."
"Hmm" Black Zetsu ponders for a while.
"There are several other options in the Uchiha clan, but most of them are strong enough to repel any attempt at their life. And also, it's very difficult to control their mind." Obito continues.
"However, if we can capture this girl and plant an obedience seal in her mind, then we might control her."
"I don't think that's a good idea. Izuna Uchiha is a variable we don't want to mess with at such a time. He had foiled our plans multiple times and I don't want to risk the success of our operation on such a variable. Though he might not be here, he must have left something behind to ruin our plans. So, there is no need to risk it." Black Zetsu disapproves of Obito's plan.
"Also, it's not like we won't have an opportunity later. If there aren't any, then we have to make one ourselves."
"Hmm you are right! So, we are back to square one. Eight-tails and Nine-tails are still out of our grasp. It's about time we declare our intentions to the shinobi world. Activate the final phase of the 'Eye of the Moon Plan'."
Swirl
Black Zetsu enters the ground, and Obito disappears from the room in a swirling portal.
In an underground cavern,
"Kuku black what are you planning?" White Zetsu asks the Black Zetsu.
"Then how did you people cross the sea? If monsters have marked their territory, then it's unsafe to travel through the sea." Hanabi raises a question.
"There are multiple territorial monsters in the sea. However, a few of them doesn't mind the trespassing of humans and will allow ships to pass through their territory. All these years, many sailors have mapped such territories and drawn a nautical chart to allow other sailors to navigate through the sea.
We sailors have an association of our own and a sailor has to at least draw the map of a new uncharted territory or update the current existing nautical chart to qualify as a true experienced sailor."
The captain points towards the nautical chart on the table.
"This map is the result of the blood and sweat of my predecessors."
'Hey, Kurama! Have you seen those giant sea monsters?' Naruto questions the Yang Kurama.
"Of course, I have seen most of them. I even fought against a few and won. Back during the era of the Sage of Six Paths, a few sea monsters trespassed on the land. At that time, I valiantly fought against them and pushed them back into the sea."
Kurama narrates his heroic tale to Naruto.
"Alright alright! I will listen to your tales some other times. For now, just tell me the name and descriptions of a few of the sea monsters.
Those sea monsters sound interesting. I already fought a few monsters at Mount Myoboku. Now I want to see how strong are these sea monsters." Naruto telepathically communicates with Kurama.
"Hmm there are many of them from gigantic crabs, tuna fishes, giant killer sharks, giant octopuses no wait the latter is my younger brother." One by one, Kurama describes the appearance of sea monsters he fought against.
"Aside from them, there are a few stronger sea monsters, too. I never got a chance to fight against them. But they are serious bad news. These monsters are very powerful and I might lose against them if I fight in the water. They are Kraken, Leviathan, the terrible dogfish, Umibozu, Scylla, Charybdis and there are a few others.
The territorial monsters this human is talking about must be them. These creatures rarely make an appearance on the sea surface. However, when they do, they wreak catastrophe in their surroundings. Back then, the Sage of Six Paths killed one such sea monster called Cthulhu.
It was a giant ball of flesh with tentacles and dragon wings. Then there was also a giant sea serpent which was slain by the Sage of Six Paths. The Sage of Six Paths had to spend considerable effort to kill it. You can still find some of its remains in the Mountain's graveyard." Kurama ends his story.
"Woah, Kurama! You sure know a lot."
"Of course, brat, I have spent more years shitting than the amount of time you have spent living." Yang Kurama remarks.
""
Naruto's expression freezes.
'Damn! I am being influenced by the thoughts of my other half. Just what kind of things did he learn in these past few years?'
