In Konoha Village, Hiruzen used the negative energy of the Box of Paradise to gradually plunge the entire village into a gloomy and eerie atmosphere.
This prevented other ninja villages from seeing the true situation inside Konoha. For this reason, Hiruzen was exceptionally low-key and cautious in diplomatic affairs, and could even be said to have completely avoided all external conflicts.
Inside the Senju clan's territory, as night fell, Tsunade slowly rose from the ground, gazing at the backs of her great-grandfather Tobirama and Kakashi. After struggling internally for a long time, she finally spoke slowly.
"Second Grandfather... since the situation has deteriorated to this extent, why not use the Impure World Reincarnation to summon Great Grandfather back?"
As soon as Tsunade uttered those words, Tobirama, who was about to leave, paused, a strange look flashing across his face.
He slowly turned his head, gazing at Tsunade's face: "Tsunade, aren't you worried that after I really summon back my older brother, the first thing he'll do is suppress your teacher?"
Hearing Tobirama's direct question, Tsunade's face showed a trace of weariness and bitterness. She gently shook her head, her eyes filled with unspeakable pain and helplessness.
"Second Grandfather, of course I don't want to see a real conflict between you and the old man... But as you can see, Konoha Village has gradually become a place overrun by evil spirits."
Tsunade's voice was low and weak. She took a deep breath and slowly continued, "I know I'm powerless. I don't even have the power to stop the old man."
"I didn't even know that Jiraiya, that idiot, got into trouble... But at least, I still care about you all. I believe in you, Grandpa, and Kakashi; you'll definitely find a way."
Tobirama remained silent for a moment.
As for Kakashi, he remained quietly to the side without uttering a word...
"Tsunade, you need to understand that if we were to confront the entire Hidden Leaf Village head-on now, our chances of winning might not be very high."
Tsunade's expression darkened upon hearing this, and she was about to speak again when Tobirama suddenly showed a rare gentle smile, interrupting her.
"However... you don't need to worry too much, I have my own plans for this."
Although reviving our elder brother was a last resort, we must first gather more information and not act rashly.
At this moment, Tobirama understood that the threat he faced was not just Hiruzen Sarutobi of Konoha...
There's also Uchiha Abyss hiding behind the scenes, Uchiha Obito who's madly destroying the world, and even Danzo who's secretly plotting far away in the Land of Water.
Each of these people is a threat to the future.
In addition, Black Zetsu, who was allied with him, was also someone Tobirama was extremely wary of.
Although he only had brief contact with Black Zetsu, Tobirama had already sensed the man's sinister intentions.
He seemed to provide a lot of information about the Goddess of Rabbit, but in reality he concealed or even deliberately misled many key pieces of information.
Faced with such a complex and dangerous situation, Tobirama could not truly trust many people, and at this moment he suddenly missed the talented Orochimaru.
Although Tobirama secretly suspected that Orochimaru's soul might have already been sealed by Hiruzen's Reaper Death Seal, he still held onto a sliver of hope.
Thinking of the Shiki-Seal, Tobirama suddenly remembered that in his past, when he was still alive, only his sister-in-law, Mito Uzumaki, knew a little about how to break the Shiki-Seal, and the information was extremely limited.
But now, he believes that there may still be some information within the Thousand Hands clan's territory about the secret method to break the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique.
He must organize this intelligence as soon as possible. Perhaps only in this way can he truly gain more leverage to face the complex situation before him.
Looking at Tobirama, Tsunade finally felt a sense of relief.
At this moment, Tobirama looked at Kakashi and said, "Let's go, Kakashi... to the basement of our Senju clan."
Kakashi was slightly taken aback upon hearing this: "The basement?"
"That's where I sealed away the last batch of Sharingan from Konoha. Uchiha Ishihata's Sharingan was originally located there."
It was transformed into a painting by the sacrifice of the old patriarch of the Kurama clan.
Having said that, Tobirama stretched out his hand and quickly formed a hand seal. As the spatial fluctuations suddenly spread, a strange power quickly engulfed the two of them.
In the blink of an eye, they found themselves in a closed and hidden underground chamber.
Kakashi's gaze swept over the surrounding scenery.
The secret chamber was dark and somber. In the center of the chamber lay nine pairs of Sharingan eyes, now without their masters. These Sharingan eyes still emitted a faint yet chilling red light, filled with countless resentments and grievances, sending a chill down one's spine.
In the very center, where the Sharingan of the Uchiha Pillar should have been placed, although it was now empty, a strange and oppressive aura remained.
It makes one feel as if they are trapped in an invisible constraint and fear.
Tobirama stared at the scene before him, his expression extremely solemn. No one in Konoha, except himself, knew the true location of this place.
He looked up at Kakashi, his voice low but filled with strong expectation: "Kakashi, put the scroll back where the Sharingan originally belonged to the Uchiha Pillar."
Upon hearing this, Kakashi slowly nodded and solemnly took out the scroll that Tobirama had left behind at the Five Kage Summit from his robes.
The instant the scroll was placed firmly in the empty space, a strange chakra fluctuation surged from all directions, quickly filling the entire secret room.
Kakashi clearly felt the space around him gradually distorting, and an indescribable sense of oppression kept assailing him.
"Lord Tobirama, leave the rest to me."
Before he could finish speaking, Kakashi decisively drew out Uchiha Abyss's right Mangekyou Sharingan.
He clenched his fist slightly, then unhesitatingly channeled his powerful chakra and activated the Kamui Sharingan within him.
A violent and sharp eye power suddenly poured into Uchiha Abyss's right Mangekyou Sharingan, causing the entire basement to shake violently!
Stimulated by Uchiha Abyss's eye power...
A strange change occurred throughout the room.
The scroll seemed to come alive, and suddenly it slowly floated up.
The content depicted on the scroll seemed to gradually come to life, and an even more intense and eerie dark aura began to emerge around the scroll.
It quickly spread towards the two of them, completely enveloping them.
Kakashi trembled slightly in the darkness. He suddenly realized that, unlike the illusion he had experienced during the Nine-Tails Night, his sense of touch had become exceptionally clear and real this time.
It seems to be crossing a boundary between reality and illusion, entering a deeper and more complex limited Tsukuyomi world.
As this dark power continued to surge in, some blurry and strange images gradually appeared in Kakashi's mind.
Kakashi took a deep breath, trying his best to maintain his composure and rationality.
Outside the secret chamber, Tobirama intently and quietly observed everything before him, his expression complex and solemn.
Venturing into the deeper layers of the limited Tsukuyomi world is their only chance to find crucial clues.
The very instant Kakashi and Tobirama entered the limited Tsukuyomi genjutsu world!
Their consciousness seemed to have been completely stripped of reality and plunged into a deeper, more distorted world.
It was pitch black. Gradually, their vision adjusted, and a long and oppressive corridor began to emerge from the darkness.
The corridor was heavily shadowed, and the air was filled with a strong, nauseating smell of blood.
Accompanied by screams and cries from the depths of the corridor, Kakashi and Tobirama gradually felt an incredibly real sense of oppression.
Upon closer inspection, the two witnessed a shocking scene before them.
"It was the night the Uchiha clan was massacred..."
During the massacre, Itachi Uchiha was in charge of the clan's internal affairs, while Obito Uchiha focused on destroying the Uchiha Guard.
Their movements were swift, decisive, and ruthless; each swing of their blades was accompanied by splattering blood and the desperate screams of their people.
The last goal:
Obito Uchiha quickly ran towards Uchiha Gen's office, as if his real target was the person inside that office.
Kakashi and Tobirama immediately realized what was happening and arrived at Uchiha Gen's office ahead of time.
However, to their surprise, the office was empty, and there was no sign of Uchiha Gen at all.
The only thing that could prove this place was connected to Uchiha Abyss was the pair of solitary square-shaped Sharingan eyes quietly placed on the table.
As the two were still reeling from the scene before them, the door was suddenly pushed open gently, and Obito's figure slowly entered the room like a ghost. However, Obito's first words were so eerie that Kakashi and Tobirama were instantly plunged into deep fear.
"What did you do?"
Obito's voice was low and cold, and his gaze was empty as he stared into the office. Strangely, there was no one in front of him, and he was talking to himself in the air!
This scene was extremely eerie, and Kakashi and Tobirama felt a chill run down their spines, filled with utter horror.
Tobirama even whispered on the spot, "This is impossible! Danzo clearly obtained Uchiha Gen's body afterward, there's no way this place would be empty!"
Just as their doubts and shock had not yet subsided, Obito spoke again, his tone suddenly becoming gentle and calm, as if he were recounting something extremely ordinary:
"Let me give you a simple example. Take Uchiha Shisui, for instance. His greatest wish in life was for the village and his clan to live in peace."
As he finished speaking, Obito's tone gradually became stranger, colder, and more insane.
"And the ability of my left eye is just right to amplify this concept and desire, and can even further enhance the power of Shisui's Mangekyou Sharingan."
"But this is only my left eye. ::"
Obito said in a low voice, a strange smile appearing in his eyes.
He then spoke again, but this time his tone completely resembled that of Uchiha Gen.
"Now, let me tell you about the abilities of my right eye."
As he spoke, Obito tapped the table lightly in the tone of Uchiha Gen, as if he were having a self-talk or dialogue: "When the owner of the Mangekyou Sharingan, which was enhanced by the ability of my left eye, dies, the concepts and desires he possessed in his lifetime will be permanently transformed into the abilities of my right eye."
Obito suddenly paused, then his tone instantly returned to his usual self, carrying a clear hint of confusion and doubt: "What does this mean?"
This scene was extremely bizarre, completely beyond Kakashi and Tobirama's expectations, and they felt a chill run down their spines.
Obito Uchiha's soliloquy seemed to reveal an even more terrifying truth.
At this moment, Kakashi couldn't help but wonder whether the limited Tsukuyomi world they had entered was a real memory or some kind of more complex illusion and dream.
They exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with barely concealed fear and unease.
"Who...who is Obito talking to?"
Tobirama paused for a moment, then said, "I'm afraid things are more complicated than we initially thought."
The two personalities of Obito and Uchiha Gen kept alternating within him, to the point that they could no longer distinguish who the Obito in front of them was.
Then, Uchiha Gen's voice returned...
"Obito, is your wish to create a perfect world where only Rin exists?"
Upon hearing this familiar name, Obito's heart trembled. After hesitating for a moment, he finally nodded slowly.
"The contract is fulfilled."
"As expected, he does seem a bit dim-witted."
"What did you do?"
"Don't worry, what I just did was very simple; I simply enhanced your eye power."
The footage is in reverse order...
Just as Kakashi and Tobirama were staring at the bizarre scene before them, the view suddenly began to shake violently...:
As if the flow of time had been forcibly reversed, scene after scene rapidly reversed.
The scene before me gradually blurred, then quickly became clear again, returning me to that blood-soaked and painful office on the night of the massacre.
"No! You're a madman!"
Obito let out a heart-wrenching scream in extreme pain, clutching the Mangekyou Sharingan belonging to Uchiha Abe tightly in his hand, and fled in panic and terror.
He seemed to see something extremely frightening.
According to Kakashi's speculation, it must have been a vision of the asteroid reaching the ninja world and destroying everything.
As for Tobirama, he continued to ponder and observe.
His observations went beyond just the conversation; he meticulously recorded everything in the room, including all the furnishings and other useful information.
Just as Obito's figure completely disappeared into the night, the previously dark room was suddenly illuminated by a faint candlelight.
A gentle, hazy light slowly illuminated a figure; the real Uchiha Gen had once again appeared silently in the shadowy corner of the room.
His handsome face and aloof smile seemed to be mocking something...
Standing where shadow and candlelight intertwine, his eyes had long lost all luster, empty and deep, like two black holes swallowing all light.
He quietly raised his head, sensing the direction Obito had gone, a meaningful and radiant smile gradually appearing on his lips, as he softly murmured to himself:
"How absurd...this world is."
His words, though soft, carried a chilling disdain, as if he had already seen through everything in this world.
Then, he slowly reached out and took out an old and strange small Buddha statue from his pocket. With a calm and unpredictable expression on his face, he quickly formed several complex mudras.
As the last seal was completed, the Buddha statue instantly emitted a faint light, then transformed into a soft yet swift beam of light, rapidly returning towards the distant Temple of Fire.
After the Buddha statue disappeared, dense and hurried footsteps gradually came from outside the office. A large number of Root members quickly rushed into the room, searching vigilantly, trying to find the clan leader who should have died.
When they saw Uchiha Abyss standing before them, everyone showed indescribable fear and shock, and some even could not believe what they were seeing.
Uchiha Gen stood there quietly, his smile growing even colder.
He slowly raised his hand, and a strange and sinister chakra fluctuation suddenly surged from his body.
In an instant, it enveloped all the Root members, their eyes filled with an eerie red light.
Almost simultaneously, the members of the Root organization went berserk and began killing each other, wildly swinging their weapons at one another.
The entire office descended into a brutal massacre, with screams and the clash of blades echoing throughout, and the stench of blood filling the air.
It was as if countless rivers of blood crisscrossed, staining the floor, walls, and even the ceiling red.
The entire room gradually transformed into a scene of carnage, with countless streams of blood flowing wildly, seemingly threatening to devour everything.
However, Uchiha Gen remained oblivious to the horrific scene before him.
She quietly rose, her steps steady and elegant as she crossed the blood-red battlefield, slowly walking to the window of the room, her gaze fixed on the cold moon outside.
"Shisui... I really respect you... after all, I really want to fulfill your wish for world peace."
The moonlight was cold and frosty, and its pale silver light fell on Uchiha Abyss's pale and indifferent face, making his expression appear even more gloomy and profound.
After a long while, he finally sighed softly, as if talking to himself, or as if whispering something to the world.
He slowly formed a strange hand seal, and in an instant, countless eerie, fiery red moths emerged from the void, slowly dancing around his body.
Those fire moths, carrying a strange and eerie power, began to devour Uchiha Yuan's body, soul, and even consciousness little by little. His figure gradually became blurred and illusory. Uchiha Yuan raised his head, his signature smile on his face.
This made Kakashi and Tobirama, who were observing, feel very uncomfortable.
"This world is inherently filled with absurdity and lies..."
His voice was gradually swallowed up, and his body and consciousness finally merged completely into the fire moths, transforming into faint rays of light.
It slowly sank into the depths of the earth and disappeared without a trace.
Inside the office, the killing gradually subsided, and the last Root member fell into a pool of blood, plunging the entire room into a deathly silence.
Tobirama's attention was now focused on the Go board...
The chess game... seems slightly different from the one I saw last time...
