As for Madara, he was also letting everyone dream. In dreams, everyone's wishes will be fulfilled. Because reality can't achieve it, should we chase after dreams instead? Feels a bit like escaping reality.
Among these people, he believed Nagato's wish was the most genuine and might even have some effect.
Reviving the Ten-Tails, gaining immense combat power, intimidating the entire shinobi world, and making the Five Great Nations dare not wage war ever again.
Whoever starts a war, control the Ten-Tails to crush them. In a way, this could indeed bring peace to the shinobi world for a long time.
It's just a bit unfortunate that Nagato was manipulated. Even Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito were also manipulated.
Because the so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi plan was actually just Black Zetsu's scheme to revive his mother, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
By having a wielder of the Rinnegan merge with the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, he would use them as a vessel to resurrect his mother.
Thinking back to the original plot, where Six Paths Madara was stabbed in the back by Black Zetsu, and Kaguya was revived using Madara's body, Ryosuke still felt a bit uneasy.
After all, he still had his own designs on Kaguya. So he couldn't agree with this method of revival.
If that's the case, he might as well split the moon open himself and directly rescue Kaguya's true body, that would be much better. That way, he could obtain the real Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.
But right now, it seemed he didn't have the power to split the moon. And even if he could, he probably still couldn't defeat Kaguya.
He had also considered whether to become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki. But the Ten-Tails was essentially the husk of the Divine Tree, which was Kaguya's incarnation.
That would make him a potential vessel for Kaguya's revival, meaning Black Zetsu might stab him in the back. That, of course, was unacceptable.
It was still too early to think about these things. For now, he just had to prevent the Akatsuki from successfully capturing the tailed beasts.
Now, it was time to take a good look at his son.
Newborns were still quite ugly, very thin, with no meat on them. But they'd look better once they grew up.

A few days later, Yuhi Kurenai regained her vitality and returned home, holding her child.
Looking at this little one, the fruit of her and Ryosuke's love, she felt a sweetness in her heart.
"Ryosuke, give the child a name."
Ryosuke also pondered what would be a good name.
Given his special circumstances, he would undoubtedly have many descendants in the future. Right now, Yakushi Nono, Nii Yugito, Mabui, Shizune, and even Tsunade were already pregnant.
As for Samui and Uzuki Yuago, he wasn't entirely sure. Samui was in Kumogakure, and Uzuki Yuago had disappeared, no longer serving in Tsunade's Anbu.
With so many children, it would be best to distinguish their order clearly. So the names had to be easy to count.
"How about Uchiha Daimoku?"
When Kurenai heard the name, the corners of her lips twitched slightly.
It was… unique.
But uniqueness meant this child would stand out, right?
"Let's go with that."
Looking at the child in her arms, she whispered softly, "From now on, your name is Daimoku. Grow tall and strong like a great tree."
"That actually sounds quite nice, with a good meaning."
As a mother, she naturally hoped her child would grow up healthy.
Hearing Kurenai's words, Ryosuke felt very happy.
He hadn't expected his randomly chosen name to carry such a meaningful message. It seemed he had a talent for naming.
Looking at Kurenai, he said, "Now that you've rested, it's time to go back with me to see Grandpa."
Previously, their family had only consisted of him and his grandfather. Now, with his bloodline, there was one more person. At the very least, it would make his grandfather happier.
Kurenai immediately agreed, "Okay."
Ryosuke had completely accepted her as family.
At that moment, a mechanical system voice rang in Ryosuke's mind.
[Congratulations, Host, on gaining a descendant. Reward: One Precious Treasure Chest.]
'Huh?' Ryosuke was surprised.
Yakushi Nonō, Nii Yugito, Mabui, Shizune, and Tsunade shouldn't have given birth yet.
If any of them had, he would have been notified. That meant it was likely Samui or Uzuki Yuago.
Samui was the more probable one. So, he had indeed succeeded in giving Samui Uchiha blood, something she had wanted, of course.
'System, open the Precious Treasure Chest.'
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, on obtaining one Sealing Vessel.]
Ryosuke was surprised, another Sealing Vessel. That meant he could use it to seal another tailed beast. Seemed he'd have to find time to leave the village and seal all the tailed beasts.
He had to get to them before the Akatsuki did.
When the Akatsuki finally made their move, only to find the tailed beasts gone, he wondered what kind of expression they'd have. The thought alone was amusing.
Without the tailed beasts, their plans would be impossible to fulfill.
And since Samui had already given birth, should he give her more of his blood? Truth be told, he still missed Samui's… taste.
He should also let Samui know the child's name. Based on his earlier naming convention, it should probably be Uchiha Nimoku.
———
Meanwhile, in Kumogakure's medical-nin hospital…
Samui lay on the hospital bed, having just given birth. The doctor carried the crying infant to her side, smiling as he said,
"Congratulations, it's a boy."
Samui felt complicated. What was there to congratulate? This was all because that man had forcibly given her Uchiha blood.
She hadn't really wanted it. But looking at this crying baby, she felt a strange connection, after all, this was flesh of her flesh.
Since it was already here, she could only raise it properly.
