"Ban, your plan is good, but how do you plan to lure out Black Zetsu?" Cat Fairy already understood Ban's idea, but was still puzzled about how he would draw the snake out of its hole.
"If everything follows the plot of the Naruto series, I know Black Zetsu has two opportunities to appear. The first time is after I leave Konoha, when he will bring the Nine-Tailed Fox to Hashirama Senju, and then we will have a great battle in the Valley of the End. This battle will be earth-shattering, and Black Zetsu will spy from a distance, unnoticed by both Hashirama and me. So, while Black Zetsu may not be very strong, his stealth skills are top-notch, not inferior to 'Stone Hat'!" Ban said with a glint in his eyes.
"Do you mean you're going to fight that idiot?" Cat Fairy asked in surprise.
"I've known Hashirama Senju for thirteen years and have never fought him. Since I obtained the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, I haven't had the chance to test it. This is a good opportunity, and even if it's not for Black Zetsu, I want to fight him." Ban lowered his eyelids, having already obtained the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, it was time to get the Wood Release.
Actually, he had many ways to obtain Hashirama's cells and didn't need to follow the old path, but he had to do it for certain reasons.
"But you don't have the Nine-Tails yet, right?" Cat Fairy had heard Ban talk about the tailed beasts before and knew a bit about the nine tailed beasts.
"It will be soon!" Ban smiled. He had studied the family records and collected information over the past ten years, so he already knew the location of the Nine-Tails.
At the time, he was preoccupied with the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan and had no time to deal with the Nine-Tails. Now it was time to meet the strongest of the nine tailed beasts.
"Oh!" Cat Fairy nodded, thinking for a moment, then suddenly asked, "When does Black Zetsu appear the second time?"
"This is more complicated and involves many future events. To put it simply, in the future, I will create a clone to do some tasks for me, but Black Zetsu is actually this clone, and I don't know it. In the end, he ambushes and kills me." Ban said with a hint of melancholy.
If the original plot is followed, he will activate the Rinnegan just before his death and save Uchiha Obito during the Third Great Ninja War, who later becomes the masked man Tobi. To supervise Obito in completing the task of resurrecting him, he will infuse his will into White Zetsu, thus creating the Akatsuki member Tobi—Black and White Zetsu.
The simplest way to kill Black Zetsu would be to wait until the Third Great Ninja War, when Black Zetsu merges with White Zetsu, and Ban can easily crush him.
Ban has made two plans. If he can't kill Black Zetsu this time, he will follow the original plot. In short, Black Zetsu must die.
To kill Black Zetsu, he has rarely been so serious, postponing many things.
"Ban, I really think you're overthinking it. Can't we just live happily like before? Why bother with Black Zetsu!" Cat Fairy sighed, sounding helpless.
"Humans live in their own obsessions. Black Zetsu is my obsession. Once I kill him, I can achieve enlightenment!" Ban smiled.
"Can you really achieve enlightenment just by killing Black Zetsu?" Cat Fairy asked hesitantly.
"Yes!" Ban nodded, noticing that Cat Fairy seemed troubled and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Ban, if that's the case, there's actually a third way!" Cat Fairy said seriously.
"Oh?" Ban raised an eyebrow.
"You already know the use of the Parallel World Travel Scroll. It can travel to any world, even two identical worlds." Cat Fairy explained slowly.
"Hmm?" Ban narrowed his eyes, already understanding what Cat Fairy was getting at.
"If you want to kill Black Zetsu, you don't need to go through all this trouble. You can just leave this world, use the travel scroll to go to another Naruto world, reach the time when Black Zetsu exists, and then..." Seeing that Ban wasn't surprised, Cat Fairy continued, stopping to look at him.
"I've already thought about this, but we only have one travel scroll. If I go to another Naruto world, I don't know when I'll get the next one, and my plans will be delayed. Most importantly, I must kill Black Zetsu in this world, the root of all tragedies." Ban's tone was calm, but his Sharingan eyes radiated a chilling killing intent.
Although the description of the Parallel World Travel Scroll on the mirror is simple, Ban already knew what Cat Fairy was saying. However, if he gets more travel scrolls in the future, he might visit a new Naruto world, but no matter what, he must kill Black Zetsu in this world.
"..." Cat Fairy stared at Ban, seemingly surprised. She thought Ban was just driven by simple hatred.
The two fell into silence. After a moment, Cat Fairy suddenly asked, "Ban, what kind of world do you really want to go to?"
"A very interesting place!" Ban looked up at the sky and said calmly.
"Fine, don't tell me!" Cat Fairy said, sounding annoyed.
"If I tell you now, you won't understand. It's more interesting to reveal the mystery at the end." Ban smiled.
"Is it not like the ninja world, full of war?" Cat Fairy asked worriedly.
"No!" Ban shook his head. The place he wanted to go was not full of war, but if a full-scale battle broke out, it would be devastating.
"Really?" Cat Fairy asked, not quite believing it.
"Are you afraid?" Ban teased.
"Pfft! What am I afraid of? I'm just worried about you!" Cat Fairy bristled at Ban's provocation, but when she saw his amused expression, she knew he was teasing her.
"Alright! With me around, what do you have to fear? I'm incredibly strong now!" Ban held Cat Fairy, squinting his eyes, eager to see that world.
"Hmph!" Cat Fairy didn't argue with Ban's narcissistic comment, knowing he was indeed almost invincible.
As the sky grew dark, Cat Fairy saw Ban lying on the cloud bed, and said irritably, "Hey! Get up! Are you planning to spend the night here?"
"Sure! This cloud bed is far superior to a tatami mat." Ban opened his eyes and smiled.
"It's like heaven and earth!" Cat Fairy rolled her eyes and took out a blue spray can from the fourth-dimensional space, which looked like the Condensing Cloud Gas, with a cloud printed on it.
"You stay here! I don't want to freeze into an ice block." Cat Fairy threw the spray can to Ban and jumped off his chest.
"Alright! You're right, it is a bit cold." Ban stood up, picked up Cat Fairy, and used his telekinetic power to float. The blue gas from the spray can liquefied the solidified cloud layer.
[Condensing Cloud Gas Restorer]
Item Description: Restores the cloud layer solidified by the Condensing Cloud Gas to its original state.
Item Evaluation: Look, God is falling!
"Let's go back!" Ban restored the cloud layer and instantly disappeared with Cat Fairy, reappearing at their residence.
