Abdication

Time was a straight line. Along that line, they could find traces of Uchiha Yū's existence. With the detailed clues provided by the Time-Space Travel Device, they soon followed the space-time passage and saw scene after scene.

"This is... Lord Yū when he was young..."

Muichiro Tokito stared at one of the scenes. It showed Uchiha Yū still in Konoha, with a little girl following beside him. Uchiha Yū was training Anko Mitarashi. There were many scenes like this. Now, they had to consider how to erase these traces left behind by time.

"This is quite a problem."

Orochimaru, standing at the very front, surveyed everything. He had no interest in Uchiha Yū's private life. How to erase all these traces was the only trouble they needed to resolve.

"I advise you not to erase those traces either, lest you cause irreversible consequences for yourself."

The Time-Space Travel Device poked its head out at that moment and stared at the deep-in-thought Uchiha Yū. His ideas were wildly imaginative, but the danger involved had long exceeded expectations. Even the Time-Space Travel Device had no way to erase a person's traces from time and space.

"Besides, that only treats the symptoms, not the cause. As long as you live within this time and space, you will leave traces. No matter how you erase them, they will remain. Do you intend to drift away from the Ninja World, away from everyone, and become a wandering ghost? Those abandoned by time often meet miserable ends."

Over its countless years of existence, the Time-Space Travel Device had seen people who tried to toy with time, hoping to manipulate it without restraint and create the present they wanted. Unfortunately, their actions never achieved the results they deserved. Even a tiny stone could stir up monstrous waves.
