Holding the Protagonist's Script, He Set Out on the Villain's Path

[The scene then shifts, and the once sunny and cheerful Obito is now lying in a dark corner.]

At this moment, half of Obito's body had been smashed, his entire body was wrapped in bandages, and the Sharingan in one eye had disappeared.

His entire face was covered in unsightly wrinkles, and it's safe to say that no one would recognize him as the boy who once aspired to become Hokage.

"Where am I?" Obito, who had just woken up, was extremely weak. He could barely open his eyes and notice the abnormality in his condition.

Am I not dead? Or is this already the underworld?

[Kakashi: Obito's appearance... could it be...?]

Kakashi suddenly recalled the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, where Obito was hit by a falling boulder while trying to save him.

Looking at the current situation Obito's appearance is almost exactly the same as it was back then.

This means that Obito didn't die back then, but was rescued. But who exactly did it? Why did Obito end up acting in the Shinobi World under the name of Madara Uchiha? And who taught him the Eye of the Moon Plan?

This matter is shrouded in so many mysteries, damn it! Why couldn't my future self have realized this sooner!

Kakashi's self-blame is useless now, because Madara has already set his sights on Obito. Only someone who is devoted to the village and full of love for his comrades becomes more terrifying when he loses something.

[At this moment, Obito was standing before an elderly man with white hair—the real Madara Uchiha!]

"A member of the Uchiha Clan, situated between the underworld and reality!" Madara Uchiha explained from the side.

At that moment, Obito actually mistook Obito Uchiha for Shinigami Madara Uchiha who controlled life and death, which terrified him so much that he screamed.

[Ōnoki: This is unmistakable, this is the real Madara Uchiha!]

As a man who had left a deep impression on Ōnoki recognized the white-haired old man at a glance.

But Madara died at the Valley of the End, so how could he possibly appear during Obito's time? There are so many years in between!

After learning the identity of the mysterious old man who had collapsed before him, Obito decided without hesitation to return to Konoha.

Only by joining forces with Kakashi can she protect Rin with her eyes.

Ban remained unmoved upon hearing this, and laughed to himself, "I've painstakingly planned this for so long, how could I possibly let you go back so easily? I don't have much time left to live."

Even if the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path provides a lot of Chakra, this body is already seriously old, and the Eye of the Moon Plan must begin.

"There are unsatisfactory things everywhere in this world. The longer I live, the more I feel that all that permeates reality is bitterness, pain, and loneliness." At this point, Madara began to try to brainwash Obito.

Little did Obito know that his mind was filled with contempt for the old man. What was he talking about? So mysterious! He needed to protect Rin and didn't have time to waste on this nonsense.

[Rasa: Even students at the Ninja Academy wouldn't believe this kind of thing. What is this so-called Madara Uchiha saying on the ground? He was defeated by Hashirama Senju and has been living a miserable life ever since. I have no idea what he's thinking.]

[Ōnoki: Rasa, let me warn you, it seems Lord Madara is also around at this time, but he hasn't shown himself for various reasons.]

[Rasa: Pshaw, so what if Madara is alive? In his current state, I could take on ten of him!]

Rasa said nonchalantly, "Madara Uchiha in front of me needs a cane to walk, I really doubt he can even lift the Gunbai behind him."

[Madara Uchiha: That Two Scales kid, huh? I've seen your analysis before, but I didn't expect him to be able to catch my Tengai Shinsei.]

At this point, Madara had been lurking underground, finally came out of hiding. Since the inventory had exposed him, there was no need for him to hide anymore.

[Ōnoki: Is that really Madara- sama?! It's unbelievable!]

It sounds a bit too far-fetched that someone could actually live from the Warring States period to the present day.

Then Madara continued, "Listen carefully, everything in the world is the same. Where there is light, there is darkness. As long as there is the concept of winners, there will be losers. The selfish consciousness of protecting peace will cause war, and in order to protect love, hatred will be born."

"This is a cause-and-effect relationship; it cannot be separated!"

Although Madara Uchiha talked on and on, it was still too difficult for Obito Uchiha, who was that age, to understand.

How many years have you lived? How many years have I lived? It's unrealistic to expect me to understand what you mean.

She had finally become friends with Kakashi, but she hadn't even had a chance to confess to Rin yet, and there was also Minato-sensei and Kushina.

They wouldn't stay here for their own sake.

"You're so long-winded! I don't want to stay here any longer!" Obito shouted.

"I don't care, you can leave if you want."

"I want to go back!" Obito rolled off the bed, his legs paralyzed and half of his body damaged.

However, Obito still wanted to return to Konoha and be back with Rin and Kakashi.

"You've barely escaped with your life, don't rush to your death. Besides, there's no way out from here," Madara Uchiha kindly reminded him.

[Hozuki Mangetsu: That old geezer is really wicked; he actually wants Obito to stay and keep him company!]

[Rin: No way, Obito will definitely show up, right?]

[Obito: Don't worry, Rin. No matter what that old geezer says, I won't believe him. I'm not that easily fooled.]

"Old man, you're a rogue Shinobi, aren't you? I know all the old ladies and gentlemen of Konoha!"

Madara Uchiha slowly walked to his seat and sat down. "I am the spirit of the Uchiha Clan, Madara Uchiha!"

Of course, Obito didn't believe this old geezer in front of him, but he really had no way to get out right now.

[Madara Uchiha: My wish is to sever the causal relationship in this world, making it a world without war or hatred, only true peace.]

[Obito: Sorry, I have no complaints about this world. If you're really bored, you can come to Konoha. I can retire with you. But don't even think about that Eye of the Moon Plan. I definitely won't agree to it.]

[Fugaku: Obito, Madara Uchiha is missing-nin, don't be misled by him!]

At this moment, Fugaku quickly reminded him, worried that Fugaku might take advantage of the Uchiha Clan.

[Madara Uchiha: After all this time, the Uchiha Clan is still the same as ever!]

Madara Uchiha spoke calmly, seemingly unperturbed by Fugaku's words. As for Obito?

Don't worry, your day will come eventually.
