After Wang Han's shadow clone found Obito Uchiha, it said directly, "Obito Uchiha, you have failed to capture the Nine-Tails."
Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha looked at Wang Han's shadow clone with considerable surprise and asked, "With your strength, it shouldn't be possible for you to fail in capturing him. Has some powerful enemy appeared?"
“There are no formidable enemies.” Wang Han’s shadow clone shook his head and said, “After all, it was just a shadow clone that went to capture the Nine-Tails, so it’s normal to fail. We’ve already captured the Eight-Tails.”
'He only sent a shadow clone. It seems he was held back by the energy in the ruins and his main body couldn't leave. This is an opportunity.' Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha quickly calculated in his mind and said, 'If we fail, I won't give you what you want. After all, the original deal was to capture the Nine-Tails and the Eight-Tails.'
“It doesn’t matter. I won’t make a move for now. Consider the Eight-Tails a gift from me.” Wang Han’s shadow clone shook his head and said, “I’m here for something else.”
"Oh, what is it?" Obito couldn't help but ask. For the black-armored man to abandon his plan, the matter must be quite significant.
"You should know that the Five Great Nations are preparing to form an Allied Shinobi Forces," Wang Han said. "I won't be taking action for the time being, but I'll recommend someone to you: Kabuto Yakushi. He has mastered Orochimaru's modified Impure World Reincarnation technique, which allows him to summon many powerful deceased individuals, even members of the Akatsuki and Kage from various countries. He can help you deal with the Allied Shinobi Forces of the Five Great Nations."
"I will contact him." Upon hearing this, Obito nodded and said that he did indeed need a group of strong individuals as high-end combat power.
"In that case, I'll take my leave," said Wang Han's shadow clone, canceling the shadow clone technique and disappearing in a puff of smoke.
"What exactly is his purpose? Is it also to become the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki?" After Wang Han's shadow clone disappeared, Obito couldn't help but ponder carefully. The black-armored man was too powerful, his purpose was definitely not simple, and he knew too much. He had always been wary of the black-armored man.
“At least for now, he’s still our partner,” Zetsu said. “While he’s busy right now, let’s get started on the next phase of our plan as soon as possible. Otherwise, once he’s free, his power to fight for the Ten-Tails will be a huge problem.”
"Hmm." Obito Uchiha nodded; Black Zetsu was exactly what he was thinking. "However, Kabuto Yakushi was the one he recommended, so we still need to be careful."
………………………………………………
“Kabuto.” On the other side, Wang Han’s other shadow clone also found Kabuto Yakushi.
"What a rare guest! I haven't seen you since Lord Orochimaru died. I heard you recently attacked Konoha and Mount Myōboku, and even killed the Great Toad Sage." Kabuto Yakushi said with a smile when he saw Wang Han, "You must have something to discuss with me this time, sir."
“I do have something to discuss with you,” Wang Han’s shadow clone said. “I’ve found you a very good partner, Uchiha Madara.”
“I am very grateful to you, sir. I am currently wondering how to cooperate with him,” Kabuto Yakushi said with a smile, his expression revealing neither joy nor sorrow.
“Now there’s no need to worry. The five great nations are preparing to attack Akatsuki, and he happens to lack high-end combat power.” Wang Han’s shadow clone said, “And you, who can use the Impure World Reincarnation, are the most suitable candidate for him. He will come looking for you soon. You should have found the real Uchiha Madara by now.”
"Yes." Kabuto nodded. He had found Madara Uchiha's body.
"The method to break the Reaper Death Seal lies in the Uzumaki clan's Namen Hall. There, you'll find a Shinigami mask. Wear the mask, summon the Shinigami to cut open your stomach, and you can release the souls devoured by the Shinigami. The Fourth Hokage also possesses half of the Nine-Tails' Yin chakra," Wang Han concluded, then dispelled his Shadow Clone Technique. This last sentence wasn't just for Kabuto; it was also for Orochimaru, who was hidden within Kabuto's body. Although Orochimaru hadn't had his hands and soul sealed by the Third Hokage, Wang Han believed he would go to the Uzumaki clan's Namen Hall to break the Reaper Death Seal.
Kabuto didn't think too much about it, assuming that Wang Han was telling him that he wanted him to retrieve the Nine-Tails' chakra from the Fourth Hokage, or to resurrect the Hokage who had been eaten by the Shinigami using the Impure World Reincarnation technique.
………………………………………………
"The Fourth Shinobi World War is about to begin. All we need to do is wait for Kaguya Otsutsuki and Hashirama Senju to appear." Receiving the message from his shadow clone, Wang Han, who was using his thieving ability to steal dragon vein energy, laughed. He only needed to wait until the opportunity to maximize his gains before making his move.
…………………………………………
In the time that followed, Wang Han continued to steal the power of the dragon vein within the ruins, leaving only a shadow clone to observe the situation. The world's will, having had its power of the dragon vein severed by Wang Han's theft cheat, remained unawakened.
Outside the ruins, the Fourth Shinobi World War has broken out. Unlike the previous three wars, this time all the shinobi in the world are united against Obito Uchiha's army of 100,000 White Zetsu and the powerful shinobi summoned from the Pure Land by Kabuto Yakushi using the Impure World Reincarnation technique. As the war escalates, Madara Uchiha is also resurrected by Kabuto Yakushi using the Impure World Reincarnation technique as a trump card.
As time passed, just like in the original story, Kabuto Yakushi was ultimately outmaneuvered by Itachi Uchiha, whom he had resurrected using Edo Tensei, who used Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan to manipulate him into canceling the Edo Tensei technique.
Kabuto Yakushi was also successfully controlled and resurrected by Orochimaru, who was hiding within his body. The resurrected Orochimaru then went to the Uzumaki clan's Namen Hall. As Wang Han had expected, after breaking the Reaper Death Seal, Orochimaru not only did not control the Hokage he had resurrected through Edo Tensei, but instead sided with the Allied Shinobi Forces.
