Chapter 1
"Uchiha Obito" said the old man who floated meditatively on the water in a soft and comforting tone.
He did not know why he was here, in front of this man who was known as a god to humans.
"I want you to save the world" the old man said softly although the touch of authority did not go unnoticed.
The one who murdered- massacre, tortured, deceit . thousands of people- guilty or not. including his own Clan. He was Obito, he was not Naruto, he was not the child of the prophecy much less a savior or an angel ... He was probably a demon.
"You are not a demon or a monster Obito"
Obito frowned "I do not deserve a second chance and honestly sending me is the worst idea that could have occurred to him, I am not a good person nor am I Naruto."
The old man gave him a small smile "I know you are not Obito"
Obito blinked in a daze "then...what do you wish?"
A wrinkled hand touched Obito's shoulder "Don't you think you deserve better than this? A life for example" Violet eyes looked at Obito's black ones "You're right you participated in the end of the world but, you weren't the one who did it. The beginning was Zetsu, the same creature that manipulated Madara into his path of pain and then dragged you "
Obito gave a dry laugh "Do you really think that I, who murdered his own Clan, wiped out almost a village, declared the Fourth World War and helped destroy the world ... deserves a chance? "
Hagoromo looked at him with sad eyes "don't be so hard on yourself Obito, this may not absolve you of your sins but in the end you saved the child of Prophecy" a sympathetic smile spread across his face "You chose a different path Obito, you chose the light over the darkness..The Uchiha Clan stands out for its love Obito, Izuna was the person Madara loved the most, upon losing him Madara fell into an abyss. You lost Rin who was your Light and you let yourself be dragged by Zetsu and Madara even knowing that everything in the end would be an illusion "the sage stroked Obito's head when his eyes got wet" with this opportunity you can redeem yourself Obito, you can change your life for those who are not there yet, for Kakashi, Naruto, Itachi...for Rin, you can even find love "
Obito glared at Hagoromo "how will I find love when I have only loved Rin? I am not going to fall in love with another woman you know?" the smile that the Sage gave him for some reason gave Obito chills.
"The world you come from is already over, even though you saved Naruto it was too late Obito, my mother had already killed Indra's reincarnation, the infinite Tsukuyomi could no longer stop ... but, that doesn't mean let it be the only world, there are actually many...thousands of them, and you will go to one of them "
"That doesn't make sense" Obito gave him a dry look "how will I use my knowledge of the Future if the other world is different, It's like I'm walking blind ”
“ It's because I know something that you don't Obito” Hagoromo kept his innocent smile “Don't worry about that, this world only has a small and tiny difference, as for the rest everything is the same Therefore, your knowledge will serve you”
Obito sighed “Good”
Kakashi deserved to grow up with his father and not see him die in front of him because of the cowardice of others.
Minato sensei and Kushina deserved to live to see their son marry and become Hokage.
Naruto deserved to have a family, to have affection, love and happiness.
Sasuke deserved to have his family, to have his mother, his father, and his brother.
Itachi deserved to grow up lovingly and not isolated, under pressure and alone.
The Uchiha Clan deserved a second chance, one that didn't take them to a corner of the village, one where they were loved and respected for who they were.
Akatsuki deserved to be what it had to be from the beginning, an organization for peace between the villages.
They deserved better, the world deserved better.
Obito is not Naruto, he is not a savior, he is not a Hero either ... he never will be but, if he can save them, he can redeem himself.
"What do you want me to do?" he asked after a while Sage
Hagoromo gave a little sigh of relief. Obito may not be the child of Prophecy but unlike Naruto, Obito had been walking in the shadows for a long time, he had first-hand knowledge, from actions in the darkness of the villages to the sales that occur in the market. black or the underworld and not only that, Obito was someone with a good heart, he was not pure like Naruto's but it was enough and there was the difference, Naruto hated killing instead Obito has no qualms about doing it when necessary. Obito would not hesitate to kill to keep the Peace.
The Sage extended in his hand a small blue orb "I will give you everything you had and know, in addition to something that will make you powerful, you must be careful this will attract Zetsu's attention without a doubt" Hagoromo put the orb in Obito's chest "I will give you something that will end the War, something that will unite the bloodlines of my children" he ran his hand through Obito's now black hair "I will give you the Rinnegan..one that includes the Sharingan tome, so you can use the Mangekyo without the consequence of going blind ”
Obito closed his eyes to calm the irritation, Obito understood very well the power that was being given to him, he only had one Rinnegan but it was more than enough to tire him and send him to exhaustion. Only one was enough to fight an army, although he could not use all his abilities but, having two ... that would make him a god among men "Do you know the kind of power you are giving me?" he asked the sage who stroked his hair.
"Yes, I know perfectly well" he replied softly.
Practically Obito would have the same Rinnegan that Sasuke had at that time, a Rinnegan with tomoes will allow him access to the Susanoo and the Amaterarsu ... this would elevate him to a very different level. . Obito was going to be very powerful. "What if I want to join Zetsu again? What if someone steals my eyes? Why do you give me so much power? Do I have to fight a god like Kaguya again?"
Hagoromo sighed, Obito was stubborn as a mule although all his questions had a point "I know you never join Zetsu..you will probably kill him the moment you see him, Your eyes have too much load for someone normal, I give you the power because you will need it and you will fight against many things in your way ... you need them "
Obito pursed his lips in a thin line and nodded, he knew that he was entering blindly in the plan of the Sage, Obito did not know how old he would be when he arrived, yes whether he was born into a Clan or would he be an orphan, what country will he grow up in or something...he didn't even know how his body would withstand the power of a Rinnegan with tomoes.
"It's okay I'll go to that world, eliminate Zetsu, end the War and bring as much Peace as I can." He
only had to trust Hagoromo Otsutsuki.
"I know you will Obito" The Sage smiled sweetly making Obito rigid "You will be the one to join the lines of my children"
Obito carelessly ignored the words thinking that he was talking about his Rinnegan...without realizing the truth hidden in them. that he saw
"Good luck Obito"
Obito only felt his body fall along with his consciousness and he was sucked into the abyss.
The last thing he saw was the glowing gaze of the Sage of the Six Paths.
White was the first thing his eyes saw, perhaps it was an endless expanse or a very bright room that he could not distinguish or identify.
He did an analysis of the situation realizing that he could barely move or that actually moving was very difficult and uncomfortable. As if an invisible force enveloped him and prevented him from moving freely ... that was how difficult it was.
A quick conclusion came to mind with some dread, he was a baby .
And Obito knew that the worst part of being a conscious baby is knowing that he is so vulnerable and dependent on others.
The sound of footsteps echoed to the side and he felt the need to cry as emptiness flooded his stomach, quickly Obito was gently taken into thin arms. "Shh, Shh it's alright darling, Okaa-san is here my little one" Obito as he could turn his face and looked at the woman who was holding him.
Big black eyes that shone with kindness greeted him along with a loving smile "My little Obito, my special boy, no matter what color your eyes are, I will protect you" the woman ... his Mother lulled him and fed him. Something that Obito has to admit was embarrassing.
Although deep down she can admit that being a baby may not be so bad especially if she has a mother like her.
