**********

Seeing Nagato's eyes healed by Bakorio's chakra, black Zetsu was more and more sure that Bakorio could help him revive Kaguya.

'Regenerating the eye is no easy thing to do, and it wasn't just the effect of his six paths chakra that allowed him to do it, he probably has a terrifying level of mastery over both the yin and yang releases as well… just like Hagoromo and Hamura!' he thought with a surprised look on his face.

Meanwhile, Bakorio had a satisfied look on his face glad with what he achieved, and said to Nagato "I already cut off your connection to the Gedo Mazo status and sealed it away, and now with the burden of having those eyes gone, you will slowly recover back to a normal state"

Konan's eyes widened in delight after hearing this and almost started cheering but she noticed the frown on Nagato's face and held herself back…

"What do you want from us after all of this? You are already so strong, having both you and the yellow flash in Konoha is already enough to deter any force that might try to oppose you" Asked Nagato while staring at Bakorio's blood-red eyes seriously and Obito too was intrigued by this question…

"My enemy is far beyond your imagination, and I need every single force I can gather just in the hope of maybe beating 'it' one day which is why I want you to join Konoha…" replied Bakorio with a sigh and Nagato couldn't help but ask in surprise

"There' no such a person that exists in this world… don't tell me" Nagato suddenly realized a little about what Bakorio was implying, his enemy wasn't something from this world…

Bakorio remained silent, and seeing this, black Zetsu suddenly asked "What do you plan to do with the Rinnegan?"

Hearing this, Bakorio smirked at him and said "Of course use it" and just as his words died down, 7 true clones of his appeared from his shadow, and they had one thing in common, they all had the Rinnegan on their eyes!

This was one of the abilities of the Rinnegan, it allows the user to use black rods which are also special receivers, and plant them inside 6 bodies which can then each use one of the six paths of the Rinnegan abilities.

In Bakorio's case, he used his own true clones since he couldn't find better bodies anyways… Although this might change in the future…

'What a monster, he can already control the Rinnegan to this degree…' Thought black Zetsu and Nagato before the latter asked "Aren't you feeling any strain from using the eye?"

Bakorio nodded at him and responded "Of course I do, but it's far less than what you felt because my clan's bloodline is more suitable for it than yours"

This answer made sense to Nagato and the others since the Uchiha were famous for their Dojutsu, but Bakorio decided to not tell them that this Rinnegan was the next evolution of the eternal Mangekyo Sharingan…

Nodding to Bakorio, Nagato said "Fine then, we are willing to join you, however I can't promise about the rest of the members of the Akatsuki"

Kushina couldn't help but ask curiously after hearing this "Who are the rest of the members of the Akatsuki?"

This time it was Konan that replied as she said "Excluding me and Nagato, the other members are Juzo Biwa from the mist, Sasori of the sand, Deidara, Kakuzu, Hidan, Orochimaru, and lastly Zetsu whom you already met… Kisame and Madara or as you call him Obito were planning to join us right now to deal with you but now it doesn't seem necessary anymore…"

Bakorio nodded at her and his eyes narrowed slightly at the mention of someone and he asked coldly "call for a meeting of all the members to this base, there's a bug I want to catch among them"

Seeing the terrifying cold look in Bakorio's eyes, everyone felt a chill, and Minato couldn't help but wonder 'What could make Bakorio-kun feel like this?' but that look quickly disappeared just like an illusion after Nagato nodded at him and used his astral projection Jutsu to communicate with all the members and set up a meeting with them…

After some time, Nagato spoke calmly "Some members are doing missions so the meeting will be held two days later"

Bakorio nodded at him and thought 'this is perfect' before he told Minato and the rest that they should leave and inform Fugaku that they were about to establish an alliance with the village hidden in the rain since Nagato was its hidden ruler before he gestured for black Zetsu to follow him…

After running to an isolated place, Bakorio set up new barriers to further isolate the area before he spoke "Zetsu, do you know everything about Kaguya's life?"

Zetsu froze slightly and was contemplating whether to lie or not but seeing the cold look in Bakorio's eyes, he decided not to and spoke truthfully "Yes, I do"

"Good, there's something that keeps bothering me… Why did she decide to reclaim her chakra suddenly after she gave it up?" Bakorio was really confused by this question especially since he didn't understand much about Kaguya's origins except for her having come from another world…

Zetsu contemplated silently before he spoke "Kaguya-sama isn't a resident from another world, she's a member of the Otsutsuki clan and you can consider her as an alien… And long ago when she came to this world, she didn't arrive by herself. Instead, she was accompanied by another member of the Otsutsuki clan, someone far stronger than her…"

Bakorio was startled by this sudden information and seeing the clear shock on his face, Zetsu smirked and said "You said you sealed the Gedo Mazo status right?"

Bakorio nodded at him " That's right"

"Do you know what that status is?" Asked Zetsu with the same smirk on his face and Bakorio responded doubtfully "Isn't it the husk of the ten tails? I believe this is what's left of the ten tails after Hagoromo sealed all of its chakra in his body and became the first Jinchuriki right?"

Zetsu nodded in appreciation "You really know a lot… However, where do you think the ten tails came from?"

Bakorio didn't know how to answer this since he was always confused regarding this matter and noticing this, Zetsu calmly explained to him "When members of the Otsutsuki clans arrive to a world, they only have one intention, and that's to absorb all the energy it has to strengthen their bodies. However, that would take a long time if done manually so the clan devised a method to hasten the process, and that method resulted in the creation of the ten tails!"

'So the ten tails isn't even something out of this world huh?' Wondered Bakorio as Zetsu followed up by saying " This method however doesn't just end here, instead the sacrifice of a member of the Otsutsuki clan is required for the ten tails to transform into a god tree which will then start consuming all the natural energies of the world and eventually produces a chakra fruit… and that's why the members of the Otsutsuki clan travel in pairs…"

Bakorio contemplated all of this information before he asked "What happened to the other member that came with Kaguya?"

Zetsu fell silent for a while before he said "It was planned that Kaguya-sama would be the sacrifice and he would revive her at a later date since he was a higher ranking member than her, but after coming to this world, something changed inside of her and she decided to sacrifice him instead and take the fruit for herself and give chakra back to the world

However, she feared that other members of her clan would eventually come to hunt them down after realizing that they didn't come back and tried to retrieve that chakra to fight them... but, it backfired on her in the end"

Hearing this, Bakorio fell silent as he remembered his meeting with Kaguya and concluded 'That darkness probably had a hand in this, after all why would it let a world under its control lose all of its energy… Not to mention that this was a great opportunity to create more darkness and negativity through Kaguya...'

With this in mind, Bakorio turned his attention to the moon and planned for his next move… Freeing Kaguya!
