The persona Aomi previously established not only made Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito hesitant to act against him but also turned the Konoha and Hidden Mist Ninja he cultivated into a protective moat for him, buying as much time as possible for Aomi to do something about Kaguya...
When Aomi adopted the stance of sealing himself, even the Six Paths Sage may hesitate to act against him, opting to watch for a while instead...
Zetsu felt as though he had been taught a lesson by Aomi.
A heavy lesson!
Leaving no strategy unturned, he manipulated everyone like pieces on a chessboard, becoming victims of his machinations.
Even the Six Paths Sage was no exception...
Illusions even appeared in Zetsu's eyes.
In the sky above, Aomi's face appeared, eyes flashing with a terrifying crimson glow, smiling at it—"Kaguya, I've taken her away..."
No!
Please, not something like this!
Zetsu's mind whirled; things couldn't continue like this!
"Uchiha Aomi sealed himself, there must have been an interruption in this process by someone else..."
Zetsu thought frantically:
"If only Senju Tobirama were alive! Then I could devise a way to mislead Uchiha Madara and the others into believing this was the handiwork of the Second Hokage, concocting a story that makes them break the seal to rescue Uchiha Aomi!"
"How to make them believe it's Senju Tobirama who did this?"
While Zetsu pondered this issue...
More terrifying news arrived, White Zetsu informed Zetsu that Aomi had indeed revived Senju Tobirama before sealing himself!
It was as if...
Aomi had crossed this vast distance and space and saw through Zetsu's very thoughts.
"My foolish little brother... I've left vulnerabilities for you, but do you have the courage to exploit them?" Zetsu once again hallucinated, hearing Aomi's voice, his whole body trembling.
Having been mentally manipulated deeply once by Aomi, Zetsu now had a severe stress response.
What on earth should be done?
In despair, Zetsu looked towards Uchiha Obito...
The sense of helplessness made it greatly miss that little home in Konoha Village and the Uchiha Clan Land.
There, Zetsu could use Uchiha Rin's identity, to relieve its inner pressure with Obito...
As for dealing with Aomi, Zetsu no longer wanted to think about it, it only wanted to temporarily unite with Obito!
The huge problem concerning Aomi couldn't be solved...
It can always be done step by step.
If reconciliation with Uchiha Obito is possible, Zetsu would willingly sacrifice itself to enhance his strength!
Uchiha Madara was special because he had Indra's chakra...
But who was Zetsu?
It was a lifeform created by Kaguya, and if it gave its all, it could also enhance the potential of Uchiha Obito's power!
The Rinnegan couldn't be relied on...
But in terms of a pair of Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, Zetsu was willing to exhaust its last reserves to try to make progress...
However, compared to the difficulty of enhancing Obito's power...
The true despair for Zetsu was, how to handle the bait Aomi had thrown out?
The appearance of Senju Tobirama was too bizarre!
Knowing Aomi's "true identity," Zetsu could never believe Aomi would have a Senju Tobirama within him...
Meanwhile, Orochimaru, having witnessed this scene that would surely go down in Ninja World history, was breathing heavily.
This is it!
It was like a world-shattering storm that gave meaning to Orochimaru's limited and mundane life!
At this moment, even if Uchiha Izuna didn't compel him...
Orochimaru was willing to spare no effort to help Uchiha Madara regain his form!
He wanted to witness a peak battle from the Immortal, to see the ultimate and the unimaginable secrets hidden within this Ninja World!

Above the sea of the Land of Water.
Otsutsuki Isshiki was shocked to find that he couldn't sense Kaguya's aura or chakra anymore...
Since when did Kaguya possess such a trick?
With her combat intelligence and mastery over power, leaking her aura was expected by Isshiki.
But this kind of concealment didn't seem like Kaguya's handiwork.
Otsutsuki Isshiki gazed at the sea, and after failing again to sense Kaguya's chakra, his expression turned serious.
After using "Dojutsu: Sukunahikona" to shrink himself, he covertly located a Hidden Mist Ninja at the shore and probed their memories of Aomi sealing himself...
Only then did Otsutsuki Isshiki finally understand!
It wasn't Kaguya acting, but rather that Ninja called Uchiha Aomi did it to seal her!
If he could lock onto Kaguya's position...
Then even with the Six Paths Sage watching, a fully-powered Otsutsuki Isshiki was confident in swiftly defeating Aomi and capturing Kaguya to enhance himself, becoming the most unbeatable in the current Ninja World!
The issue was that Aomi's Fuinjutsu was so formidable that it had genuinely suppressed the incomplete form of Kaguya...
"You wretched woman, you truly are a disgrace to the Otsutsuki, defying your superiors and even letting a mortal ride over you..." Otsutsuki Isshiki lamented bitterly.
If only Kaguya could break Aomi's seal, Isshiki would have acted now!
Yet, Aomi had sealed himself and Kaguya silently in the ocean's depths, making it a difficult situation...
Unless Otsutsuki Isshiki called upon all his powers to search, finding them would be like finding a needle in a haystack, almost impossible.
But due to Kaguya's aura having been too obvious moments ago, Isshiki believed that the Six Paths Sage must be paying attention to this location!
