Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

Meanwhile, in a dark underground cave far from the Land of Fire.

"boom!"

Wearing a mask, Obito slammed his fist heavily onto the stone altar in front of him.

"It's still not working! The quality and quantity of chakra are far from sufficient!"

Obito's single eye was bloodshot, and his chest heaved violently.

Over the past three years, through the plundering by Kakuzu and Juzo Biwa, he has spent a vast amount of resources to finally build the basic framework for the [Limited Tsukuyomi].

This ninjutsu, capable of creating parallel universes, is logically perfect.

However, when he tried to imprint his "rules" into that imaginary space, he encountered rejection!

"Creating a complete world requires an extremely large amount of Yin Release spiritual power as an 'anchor point.' My single Mangekyou Sharingan and a few sacrifices from wandering ninjas are simply insufficient to support it!"

Obito tugged at his hair in frustration.

Do we really have to go and capture the Tailed Beasts ahead of schedule?

However, due to Loulan's intervention, the major powers are now extremely vigilant.

Once exposed, it would likely attract the attention of that monster, Uchiha Tsuki.

Just as Obito was trapped in a vicious cycle of despair and anxiety.

"His-"

On the stone slab beneath the altar, a pool of black mud slowly wriggled, eventually transforming into a black and white slab.

However, at this moment, Black Zetsu was extremely calm.

It was, of course, calm.

Just a few days ago, it was invited to witness the resurrection of its mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki, along with its parallel world counterpart. Therefore, it has been completely pacified.

For Black Zetsu, this "filial son" who has lived for a thousand years, as long as he can save his mother, he would wag his tail even if it meant betraying Obito or becoming a dog for Uchiha Tsuki!

"Obito, you look troubled," White Zetsu said in a flippant tone.

"Shut up. Don't bother me until I find a replacement for the Tailed Beast," Obito said coldly.

"Hehehe... Why bother targeting the Tailed Beasts when you're looking for massive Yin Release chakra?"

Black Zetsu's hoarse, deep voice slowly rose, carrying a perfectly seductive quality:

"Have you forgotten which clan in the ninja world possesses chakra that is inherently imbued with the most extreme Yin Release spiritual power?"

Obito suddenly looked up: "You mean... the Uchiha?"

"Yes."

Black Zetsu stepped closer from the shadows. "I just received top-secret intelligence from Konoha. The Uchiha clan is on the verge of collapse."

"From the night of the Nine-Tails' attack to Fugaku having his eyes gouged out by the moon, and now, the Konoha leadership's suppression of them has intensified. The Uchiha are now preparing to launch a coup that they have no chance of winning."

"The Konoha leadership, including Danzo Shimura and the Third Hokage, have issued the final order: await the Uchiha's defection and purge the Uchiha."

Black Zetsu's yellow eyes gleamed:

"Obito, think about it. The entire Uchiha clan has hundreds of Sharingan eyes!"

"If you collect the eyes of those Uchiha clansmen during the chaos on the night you take action in Konoha... this immense power of the eyes will definitely be enough to support the altar for activating the [Limited Tsukuyomi]!"

Upon hearing these words, Obito's eyes trembled slightly.

"The annihilation of the Uchiha clan..."

That's his family, the place that holds so many memories...

But Lin...

When he thought of Lin, he thought of the Dawn Squad.

No, that's not his Lin... Damn it, how dare she ruin my memories.

Moon, you just wait.

He quickly pulled himself back to reality and began to consider the feasibility of the plan in his mind.

Not only can he collect a massive amount of Sharingan and Yin Release chakra to complete the [Limited Tsukuyomi], but he can also take this opportunity to completely sever the last thread of his bond with that corrupt family!

He could even use this opportunity to get close to those geniuses, Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi, and pull them into his Akatsuki organization as a perfect pawn!

When does Konoha plan to make its move?

“In three days,” Black Zetsu replied hoarsely.

"very good."

Obito put on the spiral mask that only revealed one eye, and his voice sank completely into the darkness.

"Go and inform Kakuzu and Juzo to prepare a large-scale sealed storage scroll."

Watching Obito turn and leave, Black Zetsu tilted his head.

[Black Zetsu: Lord Yue, everything is as you predicted]

[Uchiha Yue: Well done, Black Zetsu. Come back and visit more often when you have time. Your mother wants to see you more often too.]

……

Meanwhile, in Konoha Village.

"I've already spoken with your father. The date for the massacre is set for three days from now. Get ready, Uchiha Itachi. You should know the details of the plan by now, right?"

In the dimly lit basement, Uchiha Yue tossed a scroll containing a special technique onto the table.

Standing opposite him was Itachi Uchiha, who was only thirteen years old but had already awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Unlike the boy in the original work who was burdened with extreme pain and despair, Itachi at this moment, although his eyes were still deep, did not have that deathly stillness in them.

He had very mixed feelings about this "enemy" who had shattered the pride of the Uchiha clan, but ultimately, influenced by his father, he chose to cooperate.

"I understand, Senior Yue."

Itachi bowed slightly: "In order to completely eradicate the cancer attached to the Uchiha clan, and to lure that masked man hiding in the shadows into a trap... I will play my role as a 'traitor' and a 'butcher' well."

"very good."

Yue nodded in satisfaction. "Your task is to keep him calm and make him think that everything is under his control. As for the external coordination, the higher-ups in Konoha—the Third Hokage and Danzo—will follow the 'script' to withdraw the Anbu and Root from the edge of the Uchiha clan's territory, leaving him a seemingly unobstructed road."

In the corner of the room.

The "otherworldly youth Sasuke," whose chakra had been sealed, was staring intently at the scene before him, his mind buzzing.

"Script...acting?"

He looked at his brother, who should have been shedding tears of blood on this night, but was now discussing the positioning and lines for the "Night of Extermination" with a stranger.

"What...what are you doing?"

Sasuke gritted his teeth, on the verge of collapse: "Itachi! Did he brainwash you with genjutsu too? That was the night of the massacre of the entire clan! And you treated it like a game?"

Hearing Sasuke's roar, Itachi turned around and looked at his much-grown "younger brother," his eyes filled with complex emotions.

Although he knew this was not Sasuke from his own timeline, the bond of blood still caused him a pang of heartache.

"Your name is Sasuke, right?"

Itachi slowly walked up to him: "I don't know what tragic fate the Uchiha suffered in your future. But in our world... Senior Tsuki gave us a perfect solution that allows the Uchiha to be reborn without sacrificing anyone."

"Just wait and see."

Chapter 240 I'll take you to the unaltered Night of the Genocide when I have time.

Three days later, night fell.

A crescent moon, half-hidden by dark clouds, hung high above Konoha.

On a utility pole on the outskirts of the Uchiha clan's territory.

Uchiha Itachi, dressed in his Anbu uniform, squatted there quietly.

"Oh, it seems you've made up your mind, Itachi."

A ripple of spatial distortion appeared behind Itachi, and Obito, wearing a spiral mask, slowly emerged.

"Tonight, I'll take care of those troublesome guys in the security force for you. In exchange, you'll join my organization after it's done."

Itachi didn't turn around, but merely tightened his grip on the hilt of his sword.

"As long as you keep your promise and don't touch Sasuke, you can do whatever you want with the security forces."

"make a deal."

The two reached this cruel pact, their figures simultaneously turning into afterimages as they split into two groups, merging into the darkness of the Uchiha clan's territory.

The massacre (performance) has begun.

"Pfft!"

The dull thud of a sharp blade slicing through flesh echoed in the silent night.

Obito moved through the secluded streets like a ghost.

"Divine power!"

He snapped the neck of an "Uchiha patrolman" and watched him fall into a pool of blood. He then skillfully reached out and gouged out the pair of scarlet three-tomoe Sharingan eyes, throwing them into a specially made sealing scroll.

"Hmm? The smell of blood..."

Obito frowned slightly, glanced at the blood on his hand, and felt that the texture was a bit strange.

"It's just an illusion. After all, they're all inferior products abandoned by the times."

Obito didn't think much of it; his mind was now completely occupied with the upcoming completion of the [Limited Tsukuyomi].

Once he gathers enough Yin Release chakra and Sharingan, he can create a perfect world!

He charged towards the core of the Uchiha clan's territory, the garrison headquarters, and the Naka Shrine.

Along the way, he saw many Uchiha clansmen lying in pools of blood, the work of "Itachi".

Obito casually "picked up" some bargains and stole dozens of Sharingan eyes.
