Chapter 579: You Choose
Five days later.
Deep underground on the border of the Land of Stone, Obito finally met the main body of White Zetsu.
Everything was according to Minato and Obito’s predictions. Or rather, Obito understood the foolishness and habits of these White Zetsu far better than anyone else.
Without the guidance of Madara and Black Zetsu, this remaining group of White Zetsu was nothing to fear.
After handing over Kakashi as a valuable hostage, White Zetsu truly let go of most of its doubts about Obito, successfully leading him to a secret temporary base located in the Land of Grass.
Then, after a few days’ delay, he moved from place to place until he reached the Land of Stone, where he met the main body of White Zetsu, which was now in control.
It was no wonder the main White Zetsu body was caught off guard, because it truly had no other choice.
Although it held the last Rinnegan, after losing Nagato, losing Black Zetsu... and other main forces, with only White Zetsu alone, it was completely unable to restart the Moon’s Eye Plan, nor could it bear the power of the Rinnegan.
The only possibility for it to turn the situation around was to reclaim Obito and find a pawn to continue the Moon’s Eye Plan.
For that, it sent many White Zetsu body parts to monitor Konoha Village. Unfortunately, they were completely unable to infiltrate Konoha, nor could they rescue Obito.
And now, since Obito had escaped, as their only hope, regardless of whether Obito was controlled or betrayed, it could only choose to contact him, attempting to restart the Moon’s Eye Plan.
