Chapter 738 Redemption

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Hearing Kakashi's words, Madara can’t help but fall into contemplation.

He began to think about it.

‘That’s right, since when did I completely abandon Konoha and my friendship with Hashirama.’

‘Is it because I heard Tobirama’s prejudice against me that time?’

‘No, that's just a small thing.’

‘It's not that I don't know about his prejudice against me.’

‘That is something that has always existed.’

‘So, what is the reason?’

He doesn't know since when, but an inexplicable voice echoed in his mind.

And the content on the stone tablet seems to be driving him to follow such a path.

‘Is it Genjutsu?’

When Madara thought about it at this moment, he couldn't help but released a cold sweat.

Before this, Madara has always thought that he already had such a decision even before seeing the stone tablet. But at this time, he recalled that when he saw the stone tablet, his thoughts have undergone tremendous changes.

The bond that had been re-established between him and Hashirama was destroyed by the stone tablet.

"Did you get it?" Kakashi asked softly.

"It's really weird, but... Black Zetsu... how is it possible?"

Madara is still in disbelief.

After all, he believed that Black Zetsu was created by him, so how can it control him.

"Black Zetsu is Ōtsutsuki Kaguya’s will, which was left when Ōtsutsuki Kaguya was sealed by Sage of Six Paths."

" Ōtsutsuki Kaguya’s will?"

Kakashi nodded and said: "Yes. He exists for much longer than you think. So he has enough time to find the stone tablets left by Sage of Six Paths and tamper the content. Infinite Tsukuyomi, in ancient times, it was just a forbidden technique that turned people into White Zetsu."

"Turn into White Zetsu?" Madara exclaimed in shock again and he still couldn’t believe it.

“The truth is, Infinite Tsukuyomi will extract all the people's Chakra and finally turn them into White Zetsu. And the completion of Infinite Tsukuyomi will summon Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, which is sealed on the moon, back to Earth. This is Black Zetsu’s purpose."

At this moment, Madara and Hashirama’s faces were full of shock as they listen to Kakashi’s story.

For them, everything Kakashi said was very shocking.

Especially for Madara.

If everything that Kakashi said is true, then his whole life has been spent as Black Zetsu’s puppet.

"Then what did I do it for..."

Madara looked at his own hands with eyes full of regrets.

‘These hands, how many things were planned with these, and how much blood was stained on these.’

But in the end, it turned out to be a joke.

What an irony this is.

When Kakashi, Madara and Hashirama were talking, no one noticed that the huge God Tree had slowly stopped growing.

It has recovered its normal form.

"Madara, it's still not too late. Things have not reached the worst."

Kakashi put his hand on Madara's shoulder with a smile on his face.

Madara looked at Hashirama and whispered softly: "Hashirama..."

Seeing that Madara had understood, Kakashi couldn't help but relax.

‘As long as Madara gave up on Infinite Tsukuyomi’s plan, I believe that with Black Zetsu alone, he would not be able to set off any storms for a lot of time.’

‘Things seem to be over now.’

At this time, Naruto and Sasuke ran over towards Kakashi.

"Kakashi-sensei! Is the battle over?" Naruto asked.

Kakashi smiled and said: "Yeah, it is over."

“Really? That’s great!”

Naruto exclaimed excitedly and Sasuke also smiled.

“What about the others?” Kakashi asked.

"Hokage-sama and the other Kage’s injuries are quite serious, and their Chakra are also almost consumed, so they all rest on the back. Shisui-nii and nii-san stay there to take care of them," Sasuke explained.

Kakashi nodded and didn’t say anything.

As for why Naruto and Sasuke come here? After seeing the battle here has ended, they can't help but come over and see the situation.

“Kakashi-sensei, what should we do about Madara?” Sasuke asked.

When Kakashi heard this, he looks at Madara that is communicating with Hashirama with their eyes and said: "Let's deal with it later, just leave it to me. For now, let’s clean up the battlefield. The Fourth Shinobi World War is over."

"Okay!"

Kakashi was a little grateful now that the Fourth Shinobi World War is over.

The war seems a lot easier than the war he imagined.

At this time, a green figure rushed towards him from the distance.

"Kakashi!"

With the rough voice and the youthful feeling, it is none other than Guy.

“Guy?” Kakashi said in surprise.

"Kakashi, where are the enemies? I just defeated my opponent and hurried over."

Guy said while looking around, trying to find the enemy.

After seeing the ruins around, he was a little surprised.

‘How destructive the battle here to leave such an aftermath.’

Kakashi smiled and said: "Guy, you are late. The battle is over."

Upon hearing this, Guy’s expression changed. He then hugged his head and howled: "What? It’s over? What about the enemy? That masked man? Has he been defeated by Kakashi?"

"That’s right, Thicker eyebrow-sensei, you are late. Kakashi-sensei has solved everything." Naruto said with a smile.

"How could this be!"

Guy looked up to the sky and wept in despair.

"As expected of my eternal rival. I didn’t expect you to solve the battle so quickly. Damn it, if wasn’t moved far way by those Edo Tensei’s people, I wouldn't have missed this battle.”

Guy said with face full of regrets.

Kakashi just smiled when he saw this.

‘Fortunately, Guy is not here. Otherwise, he would have already used the Eighth Gate just now.’

If that is the case, when he came back from Kamui’s Dimension, Guy would be already died.

‘In any case, I have at least avoided Guy being crippled.’

In the distance, the five Kage and the others are recovering.

"It seems that the battle is indeed over." Tsunade muttered.

"Yeah, I didn't expect Kakashi to be so strong. Now, the next step is to find that Orochimaru bastard."

Jiraiya said while clenching his fists.

He still has complicated emotions in his heart for his former teammate.

"It’s really a tough fight, but it’s finally over.” Shisui said with a smile.

However, Itachi was not as optimistic as Shisui.

"Shisui, I don't think it's that simple."

"Huh? Why?"

"Orochimaru."

Shisui was taken aback when he heard Itachi’s word. ‘That’s right, Orochimaru has spent so much time helping Obito and Madara. It's strange that he hasn't shown up yet.’

“Damnt, it seems that we need to discuss it with Kakashi,” Shisui said.

At this time, a black shadow slowly creeps in the God Tree.
