Naruto: I Can Take People Through the Ninja World in the Future

Lux tossed a golden wind chime, which Madara caught again.

"What's this?"

"A treasure that can connect you with your other Edo self."

"Connect with that foolish trash? What's the point?"

Madara showed undisguised disdain, clearly despising the Edo Madara at the bottom of the contempt chain.

"He's you decades later, fully mastering Hashirama's cells and the Rinnegan. Gain his experience and techniques, and I don't need to say more."

"I can awaken the Rinnegan soon?"

"Yes."

"But since Infinite Tsukuyomi is fake, what's the Rinnegan's use to me?"

"The Rinnegan can revive Izuna; your other self is working on this. Don't you want to bring back your brother? Or even go further and revive Hashirama?"

"Sss—!"

Madara's heart pounded fiercely, his blood boiling instantly.

No doubt, this offer struck Madara's weak spot!

It reignited his entire being.

"You're saying I can revive Hashirama and Izuna?"

"You saw Nagato's revival yourself, right?"

"Indeed!"

Madara took a deep breath, gulping more liquor, his cheeks involuntarily flushing.

From drunkenness or excitement, who knew.

"How about it? Motivated now? If you really don't want it, give it back…"

Lux deliberately provoked.

Madara's brows shot up, swiftly tucking the wind chime into his armor.

His actions spoke his stance.

Lux chuckled, continuing:

"But that Madara doesn't like you. Getting enough info from him to save your family won't be easy."

"Don't worry. As long as I can connect with him, I have plenty of ways!"

Madara was confident.

How could he not know how to handle himself?

He already had nine full ways to control himself!

Though he might sacrifice some things, reviving Hashirama and Izuna made it worthwhile!

"Then handle it yourself."

"So, the price for this item is letting me unify the ninja world?"

Madara confirmed again.

If so, for his beloved brother and someone else, Madara was willing to be an executioner again!

Even if the target was the entire ninja world!

"No, I don't like forcing. You can get the Rinnegan first, then revive your brother."

"As for unifying the world? Decide later; it's not too late…"

Lux didn't push; it wasn't elegant or necessarily safe. With a one-month binding switch cooldown, observing Madara further wouldn't hurt.

After Madara revives Izuna, if Izuna says: 'I want to be Hokage, to crush Tobirama.'

As his brother, could you refuse?

Would you not want to?

Believe it, without Lux urging, Madara would act ruthlessly himself.

This was an open conspiracy, nothing more.

"Good!"

Madara nodded heavily, too lazy to care why Lux wanted world unification. As long as he could revive Hashirama and Izuna, nothing else mattered.

"One thing to note: after awakening the Rinnegan, someone will likely come for you. Don't forget to finish them!"

"Who?"

"Black Zetsu!"

"Right! That disgusting Black Zetsu!"

At Black Zetsu's mention, Madara flew into a rage.

Though he hadn't met him, that creature could deceive his future self so badly, touching Madara's killing limit.

Such a scoundrel—killing him wasn't enough to vent his anger!

Even just killing him wouldn't satisfy Madara; he needed to cruelly deceive Black Zetsu back.

Let him taste betrayal's bitterness!

"He likely doesn't know your situation, so you can keep acting to lure him out."

Lux reminded again.

Their moon conversation didn't risk Black Zetsu eavesdropping.

With Lux's current power, if Black Zetsu dared appear, he could kill him instantly.

No chance to escape…

So, in Black Zetsu's eyes, Madara was still an excellent pawn.

As long as Madara didn't act too oddly, after awakening the Rinnegan, Black Zetsu wouldn't resist contacting him!

That was the golden chance to eliminate Parallel World 2's Black Zetsu!

Lux could also unseal Parallel World 2's moon-sealed Kaguya to find and kill Black Zetsu.

But if there were other options, this wasn't necessary. Black Zetsu was half Kaguya's son; though not as close as Hagoromo and Hamura, some feelings remained.

Using Kaguya to kill Black Zetsu would create tension.

This wouldn't benefit Lux's trust and relationship with Kaguya.

One Kaguya was enough for now; after nurturing this one, he'd consider unsealing others.

Suddenly gathering seven would not only strain his time but easily spark conflicts.

Better one at a time.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

With Lux's instigation and provocation, Madara knew his next goals.

First: Find a way to awaken the Rinnegan quickly and revive Izuna and Hashirama!

Second: Seize the chance to find and kill Black Zetsu!

With clear objectives, Madara was suddenly filled with motivation and eagerness, itching to act and create the Rinnegan!

But he remained slightly rational, holding back.

He knew Parallel World 5's Edo Madara had just fought, possibly still in endless grief and rage.

Rashly 'calling' to 'borrow money' now?

Wouldn't that be asking for humiliation?

Even calling him foster father twice wouldn't solve it.

Though ready to sacrifice everything, Madara still needed some dignity.

"These moon Ōtsutsuki?"

"All trash! Claiming Hamura's descent, aside from slightly stronger power, no better than the earth's Hyuga clan…"

Madara glanced at the moon Ōtsutsuki warriors around, his eyes full of disdain.

He'd thought these pure descendants were strong, but they were just so-so.

Though far stronger than the earth's Hyuga clan, they weren't much beyond ninjas.

For years, they monitored earth's movements, observing, recording, and analyzing day and night.

Yet, they created rifts and conflicts between main and branch families, sparking war after war.

If not for his intervention, the branch family might've soon wiped out the main.

Claiming divine descent while acting like humans.

Madara naturally scorned these fools.

"What do you plan to do?"

"Kill them all! So they don't stay on the moon, threatening earth!"

Though Izuna wasn't yet revived, Madara was already unconsciously considering his future safety.

All potential threats to Izuna must be eradicated!

Never underestimate an 'Oni-chan's' abnormal protective desire!

"No need to kill them all. They're still useful; leave them to me."

"Then do as you please."

Madara answered indifferently, uncaring about these moon Ōtsutsuki's fate.

Lux activated an eye technique.

Amenominaka!

Instantly, across the moon, tens of thousands of Ōtsutsuki clan members vanished from their spots.

Lux transferred them to his original sphere space.

Seeing this, Madara's pupils shrank.

Incredible!

Forcibly moving tens of thousands, most bound by Wood Release, in an instant.

Was this a Sennin's power?

No, even Six Paths Nagato might not have such strength, right?

Where were these moon Ōtsutsuki moved?

Madara was too lazy to care what Tenshou Sennin planned, as long as it didn't affect reviving his brother. He lacked the power to stop it anyway.

◆━⊰✧⊱━◆

"Done?"

"Done."

Lux took the branch family's giant Tenseigan, leaving satisfied. A rare trip—he had to clean them out.

"Planning to return to earth?"

"Of course."

Madara only wanted to return to earth quickly, find a place to calm down, and research how to gain the needed knowledge and techniques from his Edo self!

"How did you get to the moon? The space-time tunnel built by the branch family—you shouldn't know about it, right?"

"Tunnel? I flew here myself!"

How did Madara reach the moon?

By flying with Susano'o, of course!

It wasn't easy; maintaining high-intensity Susano'o flight for long was tough even for Madara.

Luckily, he brought some Bijuu as chargers, or after reaching the moon, he'd have lacked chakra to conquer the moon Ōtsutsuki.

Madara prepared to do it again, ready to fly back to earth with Susano'o, grabbing the panting, scrawny Hachibi and Sanbi beside him.

"No need for trouble; I'll take you again."

Still bound to Parallel World 2 Madara, Lux could keep instantly transferring him.

With a thought, Lux brought Madara and the Bijuu, instantly transferring back to earth.

After escorting Madara, Lux didn't rush to leave Parallel World 2.

He planned to visit Konoha there to see the pathetic Parallel World 2 Tobirama!

Why couldn't he resist mocking Tobirama again?

Such a sin!

But those deserving scorn must be scorned!
