Indeed, Yagyu's plan to capture Black Zetsu was a ruse. His true goal was to capture the White Zetsu clone and extract the Mayfly Technique and Impersonation Technique.
In Yagyu's view, these two techniques were on the level of divine abilities in terms of support ninjutsu.
When combined with his Red Eye Illusion and Wood Clone Technique...

At this point in the battle, Uchiha Sasuke held the absolute advantage.

After defeating Hidan, Yagyu immediately took out a storage scroll, sealed away Hidan's corpse, and issued orders to Neji and the others.
As soon as he finished speaking, Yagyu was the first to leap away.
Neji quickly carried the weakened Lee on his back, while Tenten and Team 8 followed closely behind.

Hidan gripped the chain connected to his blood-soaked triple scythe, spinning it like a deadly weapon. His face, which had once shown the warm enthusiasm of a server, now twisted into a bloodthirsty grin. He looked excitedly at Yagyu and his group, shouting loudly, "Kakuzu, are both of those with the white eyes your targets?"

Yagyu exchanged some polite words with the noble's steward, then both handed over their travel permits to the Chunin gatekeepers. After several days, Yagyu was leaving Konoha once again.
Yagyu never saw the noble throughout this entire process, and it seemed that the noble had no intention of meeting him either.

With Hanabi leading the way, Yagyu soon met the head of the Hyuga Clan—his future father-in-law.
Dressed in a white kimono with a serious expression, Hiashi Hyuga sat before Yagyu, who respectfully bowed.
"Hm, sit."
Hiashi maintained a stoic expression, though he didn't show any hostility. It seemed he was simply upholding the dignity of an elder.
"Jiraiya-sama, welcome back." "Tsu... Tsunade-sama?!"
Three days later, Yagyu and his group of seven finally returned to Konoha.
The Chunin on duty at the village gates were still Izumo Kamizuki and Kotetsu Hagane, the famous gatekeepers.

When Yagyu finished washing up and came out, Karin immediately brought out the dishes she had covered.

Watching Tsunade's fists, which could shatter the earth and had once nearly killed him, Jiraiya instinctively swallowed and quickly said, "I'm not joking.
