Chapter 384, Rikudou Senninâs Willpower.
âBlack Zetsu, are you saying that the clay RikudÅ Sennin is out of our control?â
Black Zetsu pondered and said. âThereâs two possibilities. First, Inyotonâs power allows Rikudou Sennin to regain his consciousness. Second, Rikudou Senninâs Willpower had taken control of the clay body.â
Hearing this, White Zetsu was silent. None of them was a good option. Especially the second possibility. If itâs truly Rikudou Senninâs ability, something terrifying might happen.
Thinking of this, White Zetsu spoke to Black Zetsu. âBlack Zetsu, no matter which it is, we canât solve it! Letâs run away now while Yamanaka Ryo is busy!â
Black Zetsu hesitated but finally nodded. âYouâre right, letâs run away first.â
Reaching an agreement, they returned to Obito.
Saw their panic, Obito asked in puzzlement, âWhat happened?â
âThereâs a problem with the clay Rikudou Sennin. I have no idea how it could happen, but itâs dangerous. Weâre here to tell you to leave.â
Obito frowned and pondered, he finally said, âYou guys go first. I want to know what will happen. Besides, I have Kamui. I can leave anytime.â
Glancing at each other, Black White Zetsu agreed to let Obito stay.
â¦â¦â¦â¦â¦..
At the same time, Yamanaka Ryo, Xiaolin, and clay Rikudou Senninâs battle became more intense. With Xiaolinâs help, the Truth-Seeking Ball and Rikudou Senjutsu didnât harm Ryo. After his attack mixed with Natural Chakra, Ryo could inflict damage on the clay body. As time goes by, the Truth-Seeking Ball behind the clay body decreased.
âRyo! Weâre almost close to victory! The clay Rikudou Senninâs energy and Truth-Seeking Ball isnât pure! Take this opportunity to defeat him!â
âGot it.â Ryo nodded and lifted Susanoo. Then, his Raiton Chakra Mode imbued with Xiaolinâs power broke out. The raging Raito Chakra gathered in Ryoâs hand. After loading up his Chakra, Ryo threw up a coin. At the moment the coin almost touched his finger, Ryo concentrated the accumulated Raiton Chakra to the coin, âElectromagnetic Railgun!â
Under Raiton Chakraâs power, the coin produced a destructive force. Breaking through Rikudou Senninâs clay body. The clay cracked and shattered, stopping Rikudou Senninâs movement.
Both Ryo and Xiaolin was relieved. But not long after, they saw a silhouette coming out of the broken clay body. It was blurry, but they feel its presence is different from the previous clay body.
Ryo raised his vigilance as he observed the figure. Creating a Spiritual link with Xiaoldin, he said, âXiaolin, do you think itâsâ¦â
âThatâs impossible! You said it yourself! Rikudou Sennin has been dead for thousands of years. No one had the power to summon him!â
âWhat if he wasnât summoned? What if he resurrected on his own will?â
âIt⦠could be itâ¦â
When Xiaolin and Ryo still discussing the silhouetteâs identity, it talked first. âIndraâs descendants. Well done, especially the last one. I never expected Ninjutsu had advanced this far.â
Both of them exchanged a glance and said, âYouâre⦠really⦠Rikudou Sennin?â
âMy name is Otsutsuki Hagoromo, the founder of the Ninjaâ¦â
âAlright, alright! We know who you are. But why are you here?â Xiaolin impatiently interrupted Rikudou Senninâs words.
âUh⦠sorry about that. She has a bad temper.â
Rikudou Sennin waved his hand and said. âMaybe my way of speaking was outdated after all these years. Back to your question, Iâm Rikudou Sennin.â
âReally? But how do they summon you?â Yamanaka Ryo was a bit skeptical.
Laughing, Rikudou Sennin said, âI was never summoned. I took control of this body. The creator simulated my power and created this body. Because the power imbued in this body was too similar to my own, I was curious and occupied it. I was planning to leave when I saw something interesting.â Finished talking, Rikudou Sennin shifted his gaze towards Xiaolin.
Noticed his gaze, Ryo protectively snuggled Xiaolin against his body. Still looking at the man with vigilance.
âHahaha. Indraâs descendant, donât worry. Iâm not going to do anything to the little one. I was just curious, how did the Ninja World create another Juubi? Can you tell me?â
Hearing this, Ryo nodded. There were already too many people who know Xiaolinâs background. Adding one more person to the list wonât hurt. Moreover, it was Rikudou Sennin, who was asking.
After listening to Ryoâs story, Rikudou Sennin lowered his head and fell in deep contemplation. âFrom Ichibi to Kyuubiâs partial chakra, Juubiâs fragment of consciousness in the Gedo Mazo is this little fellow.â
Rikudou Senninâs tone was calm, there was no other emotion in it, relieving Ryo.
âIndraâs descendant, thank you for telling me this.â
âAnd in return, would you also fulfill a request of mine?â Yamanaka Ryo asked with a smile.
âWhatâs the request?â Rikudou Sennin asked with a frown on his brow.
âItâs simple, I want a bit of your chakra.â
âMy chakra? You already have the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and the cells in your body were already similar to Asuraâs descendants. Do you want my chakra for Rinnegan?â Rikudou Sennin saw right through the mountainâs faraway purpose.
âUn!â Instead of denying it, Yamanaka Ryo directly admitted it.
âIndraâs descendant, can you give me a reason?â
Rikudou Sennin didnât directly refuse, that meant there was a chance. And after thinking about it, Ryo told Rikudou Sennin his truest thoughts, âYou may not believe me if I say it. But my purpose for opening the Rinnegan is to solve the mess left by your mother!
Rikudou Sennin didnât expect Ryo to give such an answer. His expression became serious, âHow did you know about your mother?â
âKatsuyu and Gamamaru told me about it.â
Hearing the names Ryo mentioned, Rikudou Sennin looked somewhat reminiscent. âSo they told you about that. Can you tell me how you plan to solve the problems left by my mother?â
