I, Uchiha: Split Konoha

puff!

Blood stained his clothes, and Naruto stood stiffly, looking down with disbelief at the familiar blade protruding from his body.

"Cough cough! How could that be!"

Then, looking at Sasuke landing in the distance with a crisp, muffled sound, it turned out to be a wood clone that looked exactly like Sasuke. When Naruto saw this, his pupils shrank.

Behind Naruto, Sasuke, with a cold expression, said hoarsely, "This is a wood clone. Even the Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan cannot see through it. What makes it even better than the Shadow Clone is its tactile sensation."

Shadow clones instantly turn into white smoke and disappear after being hit, but wood clones are different. More importantly, they have a tangible feel after being hit, making them indistinguishable.

"Naruto, never use the same old tricks against the Sharingan, and never leave your back to anyone."

Sasuke, gripping the chakra metal sword, had pain in his eyes, but he forced himself to speak in a hoarse voice.

"I was actually... attacked from behind..."

Naruto muttered to himself in disbelief. He could clearly sense malice, so why had he failed with Sasuke?

Seeing Naruto's incredulous expression, Sasuke Uchiha said in a low voice, "Naruto, it's not just Mount Myōboku that knows Sage Mode. The Sage Mode of the Fire Temple can make people merge with the heavens and earth, and they also have the concealment ability of Wood Release."

Upon hearing this explanation, Naruto Uzumaki looked enlightened; so that's how it is.

"Naruto, I must protect our village! No! Protect my village!"

As he said this, Sasuke Uchiha showed a determined look. "You have betrayed your village. No matter what happens, I firmly believe that protecting the village is the top priority. Protecting it is equivalent to protecting the people, protecting the ninjas and the children."

"Once the entire ninja world is unified and incorporated into our territory, your so-called hatred will dissipate with the passage of time. We will all be one family. The black demons of the Land of Lightning are a necessary product of the unification of the ninja world. Hatred needs to be transferred, and nobles need slaves."

"We don't want new nobles to abuse their privileges after they emerge. Therefore, the black-haired ninjas of the Land of Lightning, whose inherent vices are ingrained in the ninja world, are both sacrifices and necessities under the guise of peace."

As he said this, Sasuke Uchiha's crimson Mangekyou Sharingan spun rapidly in his eye sockets. "Therefore! Whether it's my friend, my brother, or even my family, anyone who opposes change will not be spared!"

puff!

As the blade was pulled out, blood splattered, and Naruto Uzumaki collapsed to the ground with a thud. At that moment, his eyelids felt as if they were being crushed by a mountain. His consciousness kept urging him to open them, but he could only slowly close them in endless exhaustion until he finally succumbed to darkness.

"Naruto!"

Just then, Sakura Haruno saw the chaotic scene after the two's final battle, and she ran over in tears and anguish.

"Sasuke, how could you kill Naruto?!"

Sakura Haruno stared in disbelief at Naruto lying on the ground, her face streaked with tears. The former Team 7 had come to this.

Uchiha Sasuke did not reply, but silently turned and ran towards the distant battlefield.

In the instant he turned around, he glanced back at Naruto's figure with lingering affection, and a drop of blood flowed from the corner of his eye.

Having severed his bonds with his own hands, his pair of scarlet kaleidoscopes began to spin, showing a tendency to develop towards purple, but unfortunately, he ultimately lacked the strength to evolve further.

Sasuke Uchiha was unaware of all this, as he had more important things to do at the moment.

"Obito!"

Uchiha Sasuke gazed at the terrifying Ten-Tails and Obito in the distance, his eyes filled with determination.

The war needs to come to an end. All that's needed is to eliminate the last enemy, and then the unification of the ninja world will be unstoppable.

hoohoo!

The giant ten-tailed fox disappeared.

Under the combined attack of everyone, Obito was severely injured. In despair, he frantically absorbed the Ten-Tails and became its jinchūriki.

Immortal Arts - Bright God Gate

At this moment, the First Hokage Hashirama Senju and the Fifth Hokage Tsunade joined forces to unleash their strongest sealing technique, summoning a vast number of red torii gates that descended from the sky.

Rumble!

A dense array of red torii gates appeared, but just as everyone's hope was about to be realized, they suddenly crumbled.

With five scales growing on his back and his body turning deathly pale, Obito coldly stared at everyone. At this moment, he had not yet fully controlled the Ten-Tails and did not yet wear clothes similar to those of the Sage of Six Paths.

Even so, the pressure it exerted on everyone was still extremely terrifying.

When Uchiha Yoru, who was fighting Uchiha Madara in the distance, saw this scene, a smile appeared on his lips.

"The Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, looks interesting."

Turning his head, Uchiha Yoru looked at Uchiha Madara and smiled calmly, "Madara-senpai, you seem to be inferior to me in ninjutsu, genjutsu, and taijutsu."

Faced with Uchiha Yoru's words, Uchiha Madara felt somewhat aggrieved, but he had to admit that this junior, who had only awakened the Rinnegan for a short time, was already more proficient in its mastery than him.

"Young man, you haven't used your full strength yet!"

Madara Uchiha wasn't a sore loser; what made his expression grim was that he realized the junior before him, after fighting him for so long, was still at his peak.

"The reanimated body possesses inexhaustible chakra, and you!"

Uchiha Yoru smiled with relief upon hearing this. "Heh, after waiting so long, it's finally here."

At this moment, Madara Uchiha's expression was extremely ugly. "Junior, you've been plotting against the Ten-Tails from the very beginning, or what?!"

"Heh, how could I not have seen the Uchiha's stone tablet? Besides, what I saw with these eyes is exactly the same as what you saw."

Uchiha Yoru pointed to his own eyes and smiled. "I think I can guess your plan. The Rinnegan transplanted into Nagato is meant to achieve your Infinite Tsukuyomi plan through resurrection."

"But Nagato failed long ago, and although he still has one Rinnegan, the methods he left behind have long been deciphered, so Obito became your alternative plan."

"You use Obito to observe the situation of becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki to confirm whether it is true. Once confirmed, you then use methods to control Obito to revive yourself using the Outer Path of the Rinnegan: Rinne Tensei Technique."

At this point, Uchiha Yoru clapped his hands in admiration and said, "A very good plan, a plan that has been conceived over several decades. I really admire you. In this respect, you are better than the First Hokage. However, your so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi ultimately dragged down the overall plan."

When the topic of Infinite Tsukuyomi came up, Uchiha Yoru shook his head and said, "If I were in charge of this plan, I would have secretly taken away a portion of the Uchiha elites back then and secretly lurked in other ninja villages in the ninja world to slowly accumulate strength."

"Once the plan is implemented, I won't bother with Infinite Tsukuyomi. What kind of bullshit plan is that? It's just an eternal illusion. Regardless of whether it's real or not, after achieving so-called peace in the illusion, all life in the real world will be extinct a hundred years later."

"So, is your so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi a plan for peace, or a plan to destroy the world?!"

Madara Uchiha's face turned ashen as he was criticized by this junior, Uchiha Yoru, for his years-long plan. He said coldly, "What do you know, junior? Your so-called world destruction is just about fearing the extinction of life. Have you forgotten genjutsu? Under genjutsu, the body's instincts will continue..."

"And what happens after you die?" Uchiha Yoru's casual remark stunned Madara.

Seeing Madara Uchiha's stunned expression, Yoru Uchiha sneered, "Even the Sage of Six Paths died. Do you really think you can live forever?"

"You might say that immortality is achieved through the Impure World Reincarnation technique, but I have some bad news for you. Orochimaru's research has revealed that a person's spiritual body, also known as the soul, will age and die over the endless passage of time, although this process may be very slow."

"When your spirit completely disappears from this ninja world, will the Infinite Tsukuyomi disappear? Of course, you can cultivate a successor before that, so that all ninjas can live forever in your so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi genjutsu world."

Regarding Madara Uchiha's plan, Yoru Uchiha shook his head and said, "Do you think they would be willing? Of course, I cannot deny that there are too many cruel realities in the ninja world. Countless people would be willing to live in the Infinite Tsukuyomi you have created, where they can escape reality, have all the lost loved ones, and have the most fulfilling life."

"But there are also many more people who never like being controlled in a false world." Uchiha Yoru said this while looking deeply at Uchiha Madara.

"Let's cooperate. After I unify the ninja world, you can use your so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi in one place. I think there will be many people in the ninja world who want to escape reality there."

Faced with Uchiha Yoru's attempt to seduce him, Uchiha Madara sneered disdainfully and sat down imposingly on a rock.

"Junior, you should defeat Obito, who will become the second Sage of Six Paths, first."

The proud Madara Uchiha would never admit that his plan was wrong, but his current actions already indicate that he is considering the so-called alliance plan of that brat Yoru Uchiha.

Whose plan was wrong? There's no need to deny others' mistakes; time will tell.

Hashirama Senju's ideal of peace has been proven by time. The frequent Shinobi World Wars that broke out less than a century after his death starkly demonstrated his failure.

"It seems that Obito is gradually slipping out of control."

As Uchiha Yoru headed towards Obito's battlefield in the distance, Uchiha Madara sat alone on a boulder, lost in thought.

He never thought his plans and ideas were wrong, but something the kid said touched his heart.

"Back then, I wanted the ninja world to have only one voice, just like this kid. But at that time, we didn't have a concrete plan to overthrow the daimyo and unify the ninja world! This kid really dares to dream, and he even dares to do it."

Looking at the distant battlefield and seeing Uchiha Yoru's back, Madara Uchiha seemed to see his former self.

No! This is a boy who is even more outstanding than I was in the past.

He didn't have such a perfect plan to unify the ninja world back then. He just had a rudimentary idea that the ninja world should only have the voice of Konoha.

"Hashirama's so-called peace of balancing the power of the tailed beasts has failed."

Madara Uchiha couldn't help but think back to the past years. Although he didn't agree with Hashirama Senju's idea of ​​peace back then, he couldn't deny that they were both working towards peace.

No one dares to say that what Hashirama did was wrong; only time will tell whether it was right or wrong.

Time has proven that Hashirama Senju's plan has failed.

"So, how will this brat's plan to unify the ninja world actually go?!"

Madara Uchiha, resting his chin on his hand with an air of dominance, fell into deep thought, even considering what the brat had said.

Together, he established his own Infinite Tsukuyomi in one place, drawing those in the ninja world who were lost and escaping reality to this place.

Both sides are implementing their own peace plans, and only time will tell whether they are right or wrong.

"Heh, you brat Uchiha Yoru, if you were in my time, there wouldn't be so many problems, and Hashirama wouldn't have become the First Hokage."

Thinking of this, Madara Uchiha revealed a look of anger. If the two of them had lived in the same era, they would have already pacified the ninja world together. At this point, it would be clear whether the plan was right or wrong.

Rumble~

On the distant battlefield, as time passed, facing the backlash from the Ten-Tails, Obito, now bloated and swollen, suddenly roared in fury.

"Lin!"

Faced with the overwhelming consciousness, he could lose everything except Lin. In the end, under the obsessive roar of his spirit, his powerful spirit began to suppress the Ten-Tails.

Six Paths Obito appears.

Nine Truth-Seeking Balls appeared and floated behind him. He was draped in part of the Six Paths Sage's attire, held the Six Paths Staff, and only three scales remained on his back, the other two having moved to his front shoulders. Moreover, only the scales on his back emitted Six Paths Sage Fire Chakra.

In this state, Obito (Six Paths) cannot use Kamui. His weakness is that he cannot counter Sage Mode.

When Obito, the Perfect Six Paths, appeared, Yoru Uchiha also arrived just in time.

"Be careful, only Sage Mode will work on Obito, who became the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki."

When Uchiha Yoru arrived at the battlefield, everyone hurriedly shared information.

"Obito! You are a disgrace to the Uchiha clan."

However, when facing Six Paths Obito, Uchiha Yoru sneered disdainfully.

"What do you know!"

Six Paths Obito spoke with a cold laugh, as if no one could understand his pain.

However, Uchiha Yoru scoffed, "Obito, I heard that you went directly from the two-tomoe Sharingan to the Mangekyou Sharingan when Rin died. It's quite ironic."

"When your parents and your grandmother died, you heartless wretch only shed fake tears. You are such a selfish and ugly person, with only Lin in your eyes."

"For Rin, you gave up the Uchiha clan that gave you birth and raised you, you gave up the village where you grew up, and you gave up all your classmates!"

At this point, Uchiha Yoru sneered, "Back in the class, everyone called you the bottom of the class, but at that time I was the only one who didn't think you were. But now I think I was wrong! When you were willing to give up your clan and village for Rin."

"You're a complete waste of space, being at the bottom of the class is beneath you."

"Uchiha Yoru!" In response to Uchiha Yoru's mockery, Six Paths Obito revealed a cold, indifferent glint in his eyes.

"I now possess the power to change the entire world; I now call the shots!"

"Is that so! You piece of trash, Obito."

Uchiha Yoru sneered, his hands slowly forming a hand seal. The familiar seal was none other than the Impure World Reincarnation.

Boom!

A coffin suddenly appeared. Although the coffin lid was not open, a large character "琳" was clearly written on it.

This scene filled Obito with disbelief! (End of Chapter)
