Hokage: Ryo’s Path Chapter 384 - Rikudou Sennin’s Willpower.

Chapter 384, Rikudou Sennin’s Willpower.
“Black Zetsu, are you saying that the clay Rikudō Sennin is out of our control?”
Black Zetsu pondered and said. “There’s two possibilities. First, Inyoton’s power allows Rikudou Sennin to regain his consciousness. Second, Rikudou Sennin’s Willpower had taken control of the clay body.”
Hearing this, White Zetsu was silent. None of them was a good option. Especially the second possibility. If it’s truly Rikudou Sennin’s ability, something terrifying might happen.
Thinking of this, White Zetsu spoke to Black Zetsu. “Black Zetsu, no matter which it is, we can’t solve it! Let’s run away now while Yamanaka Ryo is busy!”
Black Zetsu hesitated but finally nodded. “You’re right, let’s run away first.”
Reaching an agreement, they returned to Obito.
Saw their panic, Obito asked in puzzlement, “What happened?”
“There’s a problem with the clay Rikudou Sennin. I have no idea how it could happen, but it’s dangerous. We’re here to tell you to leave.”
Obito frowned and pondered, he finally said, “You guys go first. I want to know what will happen. Besides, I have Kamui. I can leave anytime.”
Glancing at each other, Black White Zetsu agreed to let Obito stay.
……………..
At the same time, Yamanaka Ryo, Xiaolin, and clay Rikudou Sennin’s battle became more intense. With Xiaolin’s help, the Truth-Seeking Ball and Rikudou Senjutsu didn’t harm Ryo. After his attack mixed with Natural Chakra, Ryo could inflict damage on the clay body. As time goes by, the Truth-Seeking Ball behind the clay body decreased.
“Ryo! We’re almost close to victory! The clay Rikudou Sennin’s energy and Truth-Seeking Ball isn’t pure! Take this opportunity to defeat him!”
“Got it.” Ryo nodded and lifted Susanoo. Then, his Raiton Chakra Mode imbued with Xiaolin’s power broke out. The raging Raito Chakra gathered in Ryo’s hand. After loading up his Chakra, Ryo threw up a coin. At the moment the coin almost touched his finger, Ryo concentrated the accumulated Raiton Chakra to the coin, “Electromagnetic Railgun!”
Under Raiton Chakra’s power, the coin produced a destructive force. Breaking through Rikudou Sennin’s clay body. The clay cracked and shattered, stopping Rikudou Sennin’s movement.
Both Ryo and Xiaolin was relieved. But not long after, they saw a silhouette coming out of the broken clay body. It was blurry, but they feel its presence is different from the previous clay body.
Ryo raised his vigilance as he observed the figure. Creating a Spiritual link with Xiaoldin, he said, “Xiaolin, do you think it’s…”
“That’s impossible! You said it yourself! Rikudou Sennin has been dead for thousands of years. No one had the power to summon him!”
“What if he wasn’t summoned? What if he resurrected on his own will?”
“It… could be it…”
When Xiaolin and Ryo still discussing the silhouette’s identity, it talked first. “Indra’s descendants. Well done, especially the last one. I never expected Ninjutsu had advanced this far.”
Both of them exchanged a glance and said, “You’re… really… Rikudou Sennin?”
“My name is Otsutsuki Hagoromo, the founder of the Ninja…”
“Alright, alright! We know who you are. But why are you here?” Xiaolin impatiently interrupted Rikudou Sennin’s words.
“Uh… sorry about that. She has a bad temper.”
Rikudou Sennin waved his hand and said. “Maybe my way of speaking was outdated after all these years. Back to your question, I’m Rikudou Sennin.”
“Really? But how do they summon you?” Yamanaka Ryo was a bit skeptical.
Laughing, Rikudou Sennin said, “I was never summoned. I took control of this body. The creator simulated my power and created this body. Because the power imbued in this body was too similar to my own, I was curious and occupied it. I was planning to leave when I saw something interesting.” Finished talking, Rikudou Sennin shifted his gaze towards Xiaolin.
Noticed his gaze, Ryo protectively snuggled Xiaolin against his body. Still looking at the man with vigilance.
“Hahaha. Indra’s descendant, don’t worry. I’m not going to do anything to the little one. I was just curious, how did the Ninja World create another Juubi? Can you tell me?”
Hearing this, Ryo nodded. There were already too many people who know Xiaolin’s background. Adding one more person to the list won’t hurt. Moreover, it was Rikudou Sennin, who was asking.
After listening to Ryo’s story, Rikudou Sennin lowered his head and fell in deep contemplation. “From Ichibi to Kyuubi’s partial chakra, Juubi’s fragment of consciousness in the Gedo Mazo is this little fellow.”
Rikudou Sennin’s tone was calm, there was no other emotion in it, relieving Ryo.
“Indra’s descendant, thank you for telling me this.”
“And in return, would you also fulfill a request of mine?” Yamanaka Ryo asked with a smile.
“What’s the request?” Rikudou Sennin asked with a frown on his brow.
“It’s simple, I want a bit of your chakra.”
“My chakra? You already have the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, and the cells in your body were already similar to Asura’s descendants. Do you want my chakra for Rinnegan?” Rikudou Sennin saw right through the mountain’s faraway purpose.
“Un!” Instead of denying it, Yamanaka Ryo directly admitted it.
“Indra’s descendant, can you give me a reason?”
Rikudou Sennin didn’t directly refuse, that meant there was a chance. And after thinking about it, Ryo told Rikudou Sennin his truest thoughts, “You may not believe me if I say it. But my purpose for opening the Rinnegan is to solve the mess left by your mother!
Rikudou Sennin didn’t expect Ryo to give such an answer. His expression became serious, “How did you know about your mother?”
“Katsuyu and Gamamaru told me about it.”
Hearing the names Ryo mentioned, Rikudou Sennin looked somewhat reminiscent. “So they told you about that. Can you tell me how you plan to solve the problems left by my mother?”
