Heart of Steel Half-Morph Sword Saint, Madara is willing to call me the strongest

The capital of the Iron Kingdom.

In a courtyard with unique decorations.

Uchiha Yi closed his eyes and absorbed the natural energy around him.

The activation of Sage Mode allowed his perception to evolve.

With his body as the origin, all fluctuations within a range of nearly ten meters around him cannot escape his perception.

As the natural energy was absorbed, Uchiha Yi's perception passed through the yard and continued to spread into the distance.

"Huh? There's a strange energy fluctuation underground?"

Uchiha Yi perceived a strange figure hidden underground nearly twenty meters away.

In the past, he would not be able to detect any abnormalities underground, but with the Sage Mode activated, there was still natural energy underground, so the abnormalities underground could not escape his perception.

"Who is this guy? Is he from Iwagakure?"

Uchiha Yi first suspected the Iwagakure, hiding underground and launching surprise attacks was their best tactic.

No matter who it is, if they dare to secretly monitor me, they will have to pay the price.

Uchiha Yi opened his eyes, stood up, rubbed his shoulders, and walked out of the yard as if nothing had happened.

Walking slowly to a cherry tree outside the yard, his eyes suddenly became stern.

The next moment, his figure leaped into the air, and then he punched the ground hard.

"boom--"

As a punch landed, the entire ground suddenly cracked apart, leaving several long and narrow cracks. The cracks spread out in all directions like a spider web, revealing a two-meter-deep pit.

In Uchiha Yi's perception, the figure under the ground suddenly froze, and then quickly fled to the northwest.

"Humph, it's not that easy to escape."

Uchiha Yi's figure immediately flashed and he chased after the figure underground.

The figure fled very quickly, and a few minutes later Uchiha Yi had chased him into the deep forest outside the capital of the Iron Kingdom.

Seeing that he had already chased into the deserted woods, Uchiha Yi no longer concealed the power of Sage Mode.

The aura around him suddenly rose, two orange-red eye shadows appeared around his eyes, and his pupils turned golden.

In an instant, a layer of golden fairy chakra wrapped around his right fist, and a powerful and terrifying aura came from it.

"boom!"

As a punch landed, golden fairy chakra suddenly burst out with tremendous force. Under the terrifying aura, ripples formed in the air around the ground.

A deafening roar echoed through the forest. The ground shook continuously. A deep pit appeared on the ground with countless cracks around the edges, spreading over an area of ​​more than ten meters.

Under this horrific bombardment, White Zetsu was forced to emerge from the ground.

Uchiha Yi did not give him a chance to escape again. He dodged and grabbed White Zetsu's neck with his right hand and lifted him up.

"So it's you, White Zetsu?"

Uchiha Yi frowned and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

This guy is actually spying on me.

It was obvious that it was Uchiha Madara who asked White Zetsu to monitor him.

I hadn't practiced magic before, so I didn't realize it. It was very likely that White Zetsu had been monitoring me for a long time.

It seems that Uchiha Madara has already set his sights on him.

"How do you know who I am?"

Bai Zetsu trembled all over, opened his eyes wide, and his pale face was filled with uncontrollable shock and astonishment.

In this world, Uchiha Madara should be the only one who knows his identity.

He had never revealed his identity before. How did Uchiha Yi know his name?

Bai Zetsu's heart was shocked. He had always thought that everything about Uchiha Yi was under his surveillance.

But today, he suddenly discovered that the secret of Uchiha Yi was far more than that simple!

Who is this guy Uchiha Yi?

"Did Uchiha Madara send you to spy on me?"

Uchiha Yi loosened his right hand, stepped on Bai Zetsu's chest with one foot, his eyes cold.

"You even know about Madara's news?"

Bai Zetsu's eyes were full of surprise.

Then he couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart, and asked in a hoarse voice: "How do you know about me and Uchiha Madara? In addition to knowing our identities, what else do you know?"

"Hey, you're not qualified to ask me questions now."

Uchiha Yi stared at Bai Zetsu with a slightly cold gaze, and said in a cold voice: "Why are you monitoring me? Does Uchiha Madara have any purpose towards me?"

"There is nothing to tell you about this. When the time is right, Madara-sama will tell you."

Bai Zetsu shook his head and said in an extremely cold tone: "We have no ill will towards you. Perhaps we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

"Huh, do you think I will believe you?"

A scarlet glow appeared between Uchiha Yi's eyes, and three black magatama began to spin rapidly.

"Do you think I will fall for your illusion? Don't underestimate me!"

Bai Jue moved suddenly, and his body suddenly underwent a strange change. His originally pale skin was divided into two distinct halves in an instant.

One half still retained its original paleness, while the other half quickly turned into a deep black, as if eroded by some dark force.

Immediately afterwards, White Zetsu's body expanded at an incredible speed, rapidly increasing in size, inflating like air.

Uchiha Yi immediately realized that something was wrong and wanted to withdraw, but he was still a beat too late.

As the White Zetsu's size increased dramatically, a powerful repulsive force burst out from its body, and Uchiha Yi was thrown out by this force, tumbling in the air like a fallen leaf.

"Shh-"

Uchiha Yi steadied his body and landed on the ground more than ten meters away. He stood up quickly and stared vigilantly at the White Zetsu in front of him, or rather, the hybrid of the Black and White Zetsu.

At this time, White Zetsu had completely changed his appearance. His body was several times larger than before, the black part dominated, his eyes flashed with a cold light, and his whole image looked extremely terrifying.

The origin of Black Zetsu is extremely shocking, and it is related to the final big boss - Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Although Black Zetsu's combat power is not very strong, he is the product of Kaguya Otsutsuki's will after all, so it is hard to say whether he has any hidden moves.

Black Zetsu was seen with his hands spread out, without making any obvious hand seals, but in the next moment, the ground suddenly shook violently.

Then, the ground beneath his feet slowly cracked open, and thick wooden stakes broke out of the ground and grew rapidly. In the blink of an eye, these stakes gathered together and formed a huge wooden giant that was tens of meters tall.

This giant exudes a cold aura, giving people a sense of oppression.

The next moment, the giant waved his huge arms and attacked Uchiha Yi with a whistling sound. The speed was so fast that it was unbelievable.
