Chapter 184 - 184 (2/2)

The latter took out his eyes, and placed the new Sharingans in his eye sockets. At the same time, great vitality was injected within his body from the Gedo Mazo.

With this vitality, the new eye immediately merged with Madara.

”White, how many Sharingans do we have left?” Madara asked.

”Madara sama, we did not collect many Sharingans in the 2nd and 3rd wars. Recently, you have used several pairs, and now we only have two pairs left.” Zetsu answered.

”Ordinary Sharingans cannot take that Dojutsu power. Every pair allows me to control Yagura once, before being destroyed.”

Madara touched his eyes, feeling slightly helpless and then said: ”How's Obito?”

”Rest assured Madara sama, his body has made a great recovery, and it has basically adapted to Hashirama's cells.”

Madara nodded and felt more at ease, as his future representative should not have any problems.

During this time, Madara was deepening his control over Yagura. In fact, maintaining control over the young Kage was no easy task for the current Marada.

He was close to 90 years old, and physically weaker than he had ever been. Even his own eyes were transplanted in Nagato.

In order to be able to keep his control over Yagura, Madara was summoning the residual power of his Rinnegan, using it through substitute Sharingans. Unfortunately, the Rinnegan's residual power was too much for the Sharingans he used handle. Every time he used Genjutsu on the Kage, he had to get his eyes replaced.

”Just a little more. When Obito completely adapts to Hashirama's cells, the next part of the plan shall begin.

”No hurry. It should take around a month to get Obito to adapt with his new body. During this time, you will send more Zetsu clones to observe the village. There will be an opportunity!” Finishing his words, Madara closed his eyes.

White Zetsu sank into the ground, and the hole restored its silence.

In Konoha, Minato and Kushina summoned everyone to the 3rd training ground.

On the previous days, Minato had been following the 3rd to learn more on running the village. Therefore, when Minato summoned them, everyone was surprised and felt that the matter should not be trivial.

”Minato, I have things to do you know, I'm busy gathering material for my books!” Jiraya hadn't been in Konoha for the few days following the election. He had been wandering around the country between hot springs and bathhouses.

”Yeah, why are we here, Ni-san?” Ryo urged Minato, and he was too busy running the hospital he had just taken over.

Minato looked at Kushina, and she became immediately shy and her face turned red. He smiled and said: ”Kushina and I have decided to get married!”

”Well congratulations. Then I'll be leaving to gather more mat….” With his focus on his ”material”, it took Jiraya a while before he actually realized how big the news was!

”So sudden! Really?” As the matter was not trivial, Ryo showed surprise.

”I have promised Kushina, during the war on the battlefield of the Lightning Country, that I will marry her as soon as the war ends.

At this time, no one could sit still! The news was so big and everyone gathered around the newly engaged couple showering them with question. Even the usually serious Sakumo couldn't help but smile.

Facing this rain of questions, Minato answered them one by one, and the usually feisty Kushina was blushing all the way through, not saying a word.
