Naruto: The Abstract Strategist of the Akatsuki

"I'll give it a try. Black Zetsu's memories are very confused. I can't stay in contact with him for too long, or I'll easily go insane."

After a moment of silence, Obito agreed to Dark Naruto's suggestion.

On the surface, he wanted to maintain his persona as the naturally kind-hearted Uchiha Obito who had reformed.

But in reality, Obito meant what he said sincerely.

He was genuinely a little worried.

Everyone says that illusions are fake, but there is actually one thing that is real in illusions, and that is memory.

If one suffers mental trauma during an illusion, then that trauma is real.

Just look at Sasuke. Whenever Sasuke is trying to heal his childhood trauma, Itachi will come out and give him a Tsukuyomi, making Sasuke even more determined to go down the path of mental illness.

After Obito was possessed by Black Zetsu, he would involuntarily call other people "Mom," and this alone was enough to terrify him.

Compared to the previous world, he used Kakashi's identity, which caused him to experience physical discomfort without Kamui. This loss of mental control made Obito even more vigilant.

Black Zetsu has gone mad. Sharing memories with a madman could very well lead to his corruption.

So you have to be careful.

With this sense of caution, Obito attempted to access Black Zetsu's memories.

While Obito was examining Black Zetsu's memories, Karin brought food and, along with Fu, the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki who had mentioned coming today, to the room where the two were.

"Naruto, let me introduce you. This is Fu, the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki you wanted to be friends with."

"Fu, this is Naruto Uzumaki, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. He shares the same interests as you; you both love making friends."

Karin acted as the middleman and introduced the two to each other in a friendly manner.

"Hello there."

"Hi, you like making friends too? That's great!"

Fu shook hands with Naruto, her face beaming with excitement.

Just looking at this scene, it's so harmonious; it's like a sunny, cheerful, and outgoing little girl has found a companion.

But Dark Naruto always felt that something was wrong.

If he can pretend to be a good person, then why can't others pretend to be?

but……

Naruto carefully observed the expressions on their faces.

He still hasn't noticed any flaws.

Unfortunately, Obito has yet to find the relevant memories.

"Um, what is your friend doing?"

Karin pointed to Obito beside her and asked Naruto.

At this moment, Obito was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his head twitching from side to side.

Anyone who didn't know better would think he was Doctor Strange looking at fourteen million possible endings.

"What is he doing...?"

Just as Naruto was about to make up an excuse, Obito suddenly stopped what he was doing and opened his eyes.

"Mother!"

Obito looked at Fu and said this in front of everyone.

Everyone was stunned.

Fu was also stunned.

She's here to make friends, not to take in a son, right? What's going on?

Once Obito regained his senses and saw Karin and Fu, he didn't hesitate for a moment and pounced on Naruto while the others were still stunned.

"Kamui!"

The two were instantly sucked in and transferred to the Divine Might Space.

After landing on the ground, Naruto was momentarily stunned. Regaining his senses, he immediately looked around warily. Finding nothing amiss, he whispered to Obito, "Why did you bring us in here? Is it any more dangerous outside than Isshiki Otsutsuki here?"

"That makes sense, but you have to understand that no matter how dangerous it is, there are various buildings in Konoha Village that can block your view and senses, so the danger isn't real-time."

But it's different outside. Those two guys are right next to us, danger is imminent. If we don't leave, we're going to suffer soon!

Obito tried to explain to Naruto.

"So, you really did find relevant information from Black Zetsu's memories?"

Naruto understood immediately after hearing what Obito said.

"That's right, I..."

"etc."

Naruto interrupted Obito, who was trying to explain, and looked outside the house with a worried expression. "You just said that the buildings in Konoha can block the view, but I remember Isshiki Otsutsuki has the Byakugan, right? Does that really work?"

"...Although Otsutsuki Isshiki has the Byakugan, he is inhabiting Ichiraku-san's body and cannot switch freely. In addition, he has gone mad, and his eye techniques remain those two special eye techniques, making it impossible for him to revert to the ordinary Byakugan."

Even if his eye technique still includes the Byakugan's abilities, there won't be any problems if he doesn't actively use it, so it should be safe.

Obito explained the reason to Naruto, but in the process, he began to doubt Naruto.

First of all, Dark Naruto inherited the memories of the original body; this is fundamental.

In that case, here's the question.

According to the intelligence he gathered, Ōtsutsuki Isshiki never displayed the Byakugan.

He used the Great Black Heaven and the Young Name Buttocks from beginning to end, and his upper and lower eyes always maintained the shape of black and gold eyes.

Logically speaking, the other eye that has never been opened should be the white eye.

However, the intelligence report made no mention of the Byakugan.

Information from the ninja world only states that Kaguya Otsutsuki was the progenitor of chakra, but it doesn't mention that she possessed the Byakugan.

So, where did Naruto learn that the Otsutsuki clan possessed the Byakugan?

On the contrary, in the real ninja world, those people, in order to give him a chance and make him "repent," eventually told him a lot of things.

This includes their past battles against the Otsutsuki clan, in which Naruto was among them.

In other words, only Naruto in the real ninja world knew that the Otsutsuki possessed the Byakugan!

Is this a design flaw in the Tsukuyomi seal, or is this Naruto actually the Naruto from the real world?

He said something felt off.

Kakashi said Naruto is a lot like him, and that's Kakashi in real life saying Naruto is a lot like him in real life.

How could the Naruto in the Tsukuyomi world be imprinted like him in reality?

Now it seems there is a problem.

Obito suddenly realized that there was no mission this time. It wasn't that the mission objective was what he had thought, such as activating the Infinite Tsukuyomi or destroying the Otsutsuki.

In this world, he wasn't the one doing the mission at all.

So those people put him in the first world so that he would "suddenly realize the truth".

Why was Naruto brought in?

Needless to say, the biggest function of this thing is to help people change and accumulate experience.

So, they probably want Naruto to gain combat experience and mature.

A wicked thought gradually began to emerge in Obito's mind.

"I see. Obito-san, please continue. What information did you obtain?"

Dark Naruto, still innocently urging Obito to continue recounting the information from Black Zetsu's memories, was completely unaware that he had already revealed the most crucial information about the original body.
