Naruto: My Chat Group Spans History.

Obito immediately began to devour the food.

"It still tastes the same familiar flavor..."

Just as the two were enjoying the delicious dumplings and fried eggs, a new message came through the chat group, causing Obito to pause in his actions.

This is understandable; the number of people joining the group was quite unexpected for him.

He saw it...

Another version of yourself.

Madara Uchiha (Ten-Tails Jinchuriki) has joined the chat group.

[Itachi Uchiha joins the chat group]

[Uchiha Madara (white mask) joins the chat group].

Shinomiya Yuuki: "Everyone, wake up early! We have a new member joining the group, let's give them a big round of applause!"

Hashirama Senju: "Madara! You've come in too, hahaha."

Obito Uchiha: "Yo, another version of me, or should I call you Madara? Hmm, whatever."

Minato Namikaze: "Good morning, everyone. Whether it's morning, noon, or night, please accept this greeting."

-----Year 67 of Konoha-----

This past year has been full of stories and constant turmoil.

A mysterious masked man declared war on the entire ninja world, thus beginning the Fourth Shinobi World War.

He first defeated Konan and took the Rinnegan left by Nagato from her. Then, he used the bodies of the six tailed beast jinchūriki to revive the new Six Paths of Pain.

This batch of Pain Six Paths is ridiculously strong; they can even transform into tailed beasts, and are completely controlled by the masked man.

At this point, he had shed the disguise he wore during his Akatsuki days.

He changed into a brand-new robe, carried a huge Uchiha fan on his back, and wore a uniquely designed mask with a pure white background and three-tomoe eye patterns.

The Rinnegan embedded in his left eye shimmered with an eerie light, while his right eye remained his Mangekyou Sharingan.

With his power greatly increased, he used the name of Uchiha Madara to stir up trouble in the ninja world.

Furthermore, they joined forces with Kabuto Yakushi, using the Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon the souls of the dead, and combined this with an army of 100,000 White Zetsu to build a powerful force capable of contending with the Allied Shinobi Forces.

In a lush green forest.

The white-masked Pain, transformed into a Jinchuriki, confronts Naruto Uzumaki and Killer Bee, who have been tracking him all the way here.

The six Jinchūriki of Pain took turns attacking, with Roshi launching the first attack. Using his unique Lava Release: Scorching River Rock Technique, he spewed out rolling lava balls from his mouth, heading straight for Naruto and Killer Bee.

But the two reacted quickly, and with a light touch of their toes, they darted and dodged like forest sprites.

But the opponent has six Jinchuriki! Just as Rōshi's attack missed, Yagura's Water Mirror Technique followed closely, and two identical Narutos and Killer Bees flew out of the mirror!

Not only do they look identical, but their abilities are also the same as the original!

Not to be outdone, Yu Gao and Feng created a series of explosions with water bubbles while scattering blinding phosphorus powder, making the scene as chaotic as a battlefield.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mu Ren and Han Ze launched a fierce attack using physical skills.

Under the precise command of the White Mask, the Six Pains launched a series of interconnected attacks, forcing Naruto and Killer Bee to keep up with their attacks.

Suddenly, the white-masked man froze, his eyes filled with confusion.

This subtle emotional fluctuation directly affected Pain's offensive.

Naruto and Killer Bee seized the opportunity to retreat, standing on a large tree and watching each other warily.

"Be careful, he seems to be having problems," Naruto's deep voice rang out.

With the help of his mother Kushina, he suppressed the Nine-Tails and was able to use the Nine-Tails' chakra to transform into the Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, greatly enhancing his sensory abilities.

He could clearly sense that the man who called himself Ban was experiencing a turmoil of emotions, even vaguely revealing...

An unprecedented fear!

At this moment, in the chat group

Shinomiya Yuuki: "Strange, why is there no one talking here?"

"Hey, hey, hey? Is anyone there? @Uchiha Madara (Ten-Tails Jinchuriki) @Uchiha Madara (White Mask) @Uchiha Itachi, are you guys lurking?"

Minato Namikaze: "I guess... they're probably like we were when we first came in, thinking they've been under some kind of illusion, and are sweating bullets trying to find a way out."

Obito Uchiha: "That's quite possible."

Shinomiya Yuuki: "Wait, something's not right. Back when Six Paths Madara and White Mask were around, it should have been Konoha Year 67, during the Fourth Shinobi World War, right?"

"As the instigator of the war, shouldn't they still be fighting on the front lines right now?"

"I'm not too sure about the White Mask side, but the Six Paths Madara side is definitely fighting fiercely!"

"I wonder if he ate Might Guy's Night Guy."

"As for Itachi, let me see... Huh? Is his location Konoha Year 54?"

"Holy crap! It just so happens to be the night of the Uchiha clan massacre. Is he going to take down every kid with a single strike?"

Obito Uchiha: "Should we stop them? No, wait, I can kill them all with one strike from that timeline too."

Shinomiya Yuuki: "I'm going to fight Shichi-san. Don't turn around. I am Uchiha Izumi."

Uchiha Itachi: "No, I was just watching the video in the group chat."

Shinomiya Yuuki: "..."

Obito Uchiha: "Haha, that's hilarious."

The night of Konoha in 54.

Inside the dimly lit room, Itachi Uchiha leaned against the door, his gaze piercing through the quiet courtyard and landing on the ripples of the pond, his expression as calm as still water.

However, the barely concealed anger in his eyes revealed the turmoil within him.

Was I... wrong?

Uchiha Itachi slowly clenched his hands until his nails dug into his flesh. He seemed to forget the pain, and his face remained cold and stern.

The future depicted in the group video undoubtedly cemented his image as a pathetic clown.

If this magical group chat hadn't suddenly appeared, he might have followed the known trajectory and, for the sake of the village and his younger brother, ruthlessly carried out the order to exterminate the Uchiha clan.

"Shimura Danzo..."

Uchiha Itachi uttered the name slowly and deliberately, through gritted teeth.

A crimson light surged in his eyes, and the Mangekyou Sharingan awakened!

Amidst the intense emotional turmoil, his eyes silently underwent a transformation.

Originally possessing only three tomoe, Itachi only awakened his Mangekyou Sharingan after the sacrifice of his close friend Shisui. At this moment, Shisui was still alive and well, not yet facing Danzo alone, so Itachi's Mangekyou Sharingan had not yet been awakened.

But after witnessing that distorted future, Itachi miraculously awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan ahead of schedule!

After a brief moment of self-reproach, Itachi Uchiha straightened his back, the moonlight shining down and illuminating his resolute face.

"This decaying Konoha needs a complete overhaul..."

"I want to become Hokage!"

He stared at the screen, gazing intently at the names of Hashirama Senju and Minato Namikaze, his eyes flashing with determination.

Chapter 47 is too boring, I want to see rivers of blood.

Uchiha Itachi: "@Senju Hashirama, @Namikaze Minato, my two seniors, I... want to become Hokage!"

"I no longer want to be a pawn manipulated at will by the Konoha leadership, and I cannot bear to sever my clan's bloodline and leave Sasuke alone to face that bleak future."

"I want to lead the Uchiha clan out of the shadows and wholeheartedly integrate them into Konoha. I hope that you two seniors can give me some advice."

Itachi's gaze was unwavering; he no longer trusted those lofty shadows and was determined to tear away the corruption himself, allowing Konoha to be reborn.

He knew that violence alone could not secure his position as Hokage; it was a truth he had come to understand after seeing into the future.

As he later said:

It's not that only becoming Hokage can earn people's recognition, but rather that only those who earn people's recognition can become Hokage.

At this moment, he longed for the approval of the two Hokage in the group. Although they did not belong to this timeline, Itachi still looked forward to their insights.

Especially Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage who was like a brother to his father Fugaku Uchiha, whose reputation resounded throughout Itachi's mind.

Meanwhile, inside Ichiraku Ramen in Konoha Village.

The Senju brothers, Hashirama and Tobirama, are enjoying the legendary Ichiraku Ramen that runs throughout the story.

Hashirama gently nudged Tobirama, who was focused on slurping noodles, and whispered, "Tobirama, there's an Uchiha kid who wants to become Hokage. I'd like to hear your thoughts."

Tobirama didn't even lift his eyelids, continuing to enjoy the delicious food: "Who? Madara? Then let him do it, it'll make things easier for me too."

This ramen is truly unique.

Hashirama smiled and shook his head: "It's not Madara, it's a little guy named Itachi from another timeline. He's incredibly strong, and his talent is almost on par with Madara's."

"Itachi?" Tobirama seemed somewhat surprised.

"Let him be. How others live in their world is none of our business. Brother, you always worry too much."

"You can't say that. The fact that they came to ask me shows that they still respect us, the Hokage."

Hashirama Senju pondered for a moment, then responded in the group chat:

Hashirama Senju: "Young man from the Uchiha clan, I suggest you pursue your dreams bravely. Don't even mention becoming Hokage; there's nothing you can't do if you want to dominate the ninja world."

"But you must be careful, the era you live in is exceptionally delicate."

"With the Fourth Hokage's sacrifice and the Nine-Tails' rampage just over, there is a shortage of high-end combat power, morale is low, and there are external enemies all around. If we want to become Hokage, the road is fraught with danger. One wrong step and Konoha may be doomed."

"Haha, of course, we will lend you a hand at the crucial moment and will never let Konoha be destroyed."

After reading Hashirama's reply, Itachi Uchiha's eyes flashed with deep thought: "Is that so..."

Indeed, Hashirama's words hit the nail on the head. The Uchiha clan is currently eyeing the village covetously, eager to make their move while Konoha is somewhat weakened.

If I were to reveal my desire to become Hokage, the elites in my clan might be eager to drape the Hokage's cloak over my shoulders the very next day.
