"Use... the same method as 'Infinite Tsukuyomi'!"

"I will use the power of the 'Tomyo-no-Tama' to rewrite the rules of this world! I will ensure that all kind and hardworking people receive the life they deserve! I will completely eradicate parasites like you who take pleasure in humiliating others and leeching off the people's wealth!"

Towards the end, his voice carried a deep, almost obsessive tenderness and firmness:

"I want to build a world where...everyone in the village, all the kind and gentle people like a mother, can live happily forever!"

"This is my dream now! Your death is the beginning of the path I've embarked on!"

The Rubik's Cube lifted the silencing on the Lord.

"Aaaaaah!!! Monster! You monster! Someone like you shouldn't even exist in this world!!!"

The moment the lord could speak, he immediately used his last bit of strength to unleash the most vicious curses and screams.

The Rubik's Cube slowly shook its head, its voice returning to its previous coldness, yet containing a deeper meaning:

"You're completely wrong about that."

"It is precisely because this world... is so awful that I was born into this world."

"You will stay here and die slowly. In my expectation, you will meet your death in endless agony as the sun rises."

“Don’t worry,” he added finally, his tone flat yet chilling.

"I will not leave you with a corpse. Your existence will be completely annihilated in this space."

After saying that, the Rubik's Cube's figure disappeared completely from the dueling arena space called "Takamagahara," like an erased portrait.

Only the lord, nailed to the cross, endured excruciating pain, roaring silently, and would gradually be annihilated over a "long" period of time.

Chapter 75 Controlling Mei Terumi

Chapter 75 Controlling Mei Terumi

The Rubik's Cube's figure reappeared clearly in the blood-soaked banquet hall, like an ink wash painting.

The overwhelming sense of control and omnipotence he felt in "Takamagahara" quickly receded like a tide, and the physical rules of the real world returned to him, bringing a subtle yet clear sense of disparity. An indescribable emptiness and powerlessness quietly began to grow within him.

But he quickly took a deep breath, suppressing that moment of hesitation, and his eyes became firm and cold again.

His gaze fell upon Mei Terumi, who remained frozen in place. Looking at her posture, which resembled a finely crafted sculpture, a complex emotion welled up within him.

Unexpectedly, I ended up on a similar path to my cheap father, using the power of these eyes to forcibly control others.

"What bad luck, Kirigakure."

The kaleidoscope pattern on his left eye flickered slightly, and the powerful eye technique attached to Mei Terumi instantly dissipated.

The moment she regained control of her body, Mei Terumi stumbled and nearly fell, but she quickly regained her balance. Her sharp gaze swept rapidly across the entire hall.

The ground was littered with the mangled corpses of nobles and daimyo, the blue-eyed man who had died tragically after being stripped of his white eyes, and the only one standing, a terrifying figure wearing a red mask.

The fact that only Rubik's Cube remained made her instantly understand the current situation.

A bitter smile crept across her face, filled with self-mockery and helplessness. She never imagined that she, an elite member of Kirigakure and even the designated next Mizukage, would fail in such a seemingly simple escort mission, unable to even protect the target.

Is this the end for me?

The thought had barely formed in her mind when she abruptly extinguished it.

"No! I am a ninja from Kirigakure! I am the Fifth Mizukage, carrying everyone's hopes and about to shoulder the future of Kirigakure! Even if I die here, I must pass on this guy's information! I must expose the information about this culprit who has brought Kirigakure to this state!"

Mei Terumi was extremely clear-headed; she was far from naive enough to believe she could defeat this mysterious figure before her, who possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan and whose strength was unfathomable. Survival and the transmission of intelligence were her only and most important objectives at this moment!

Without any hesitation, without wasting a single second in assuming a fighting stance, the instant her body regained its freedom, she made the wisest choice...

She turned and ran away without hesitation!

Exposing the biggest opening behind her to the enemy is a cardinal sin for a ninja, but at this moment, speed is everything! Her figure shot off like an arrow, hurtling towards the damaged door of the banquet hall, trying to escape the gaze of the enemy's terrifying eyes as quickly as possible and flee this deadly spell zone!

Her actions were decisive and swift, demonstrating the judgment and execution capabilities expected of an elite ninja.

Just as Mei Terumi was about to rush out of the broken banquet hall doors, and could even feel the night breeze on her face...

A figure, moving at a speed far exceeding her reaction limits, appeared silently and stealthily at the doorway, blocking her only path.

That cold red mask became the only focus in her field of vision.

"Oh no! Don't look him in the eye!"

The thought flashed through Mei Terumi's mind like lightning, but the momentum of her body and the incredible speed of the other party left her no time to make any evasive maneuvers.

It's already... too late.

That familiar, despairing sense of stagnation returned! Her body was like an insect thrown into amber, once again forcibly "stuck" in place, unable to move even a finger.

The only thing he could do was to be forced to look into the eyes of the Rubik's Cube's kaleidoscope Sharingan, hidden behind the holes in the mask, slowly rotating with eerie patterns.

The profound power in those eyes captivated her completely.

After a brief gaze, the kaleidoscope in the Rubik's Cube's left eye twitched almost imperceptibly, releasing the "Mitsubishi Soul" spell cast upon her.

Her body was free again, but Mei Terumi's eyes had lost their previous anger and vigilance, becoming empty and blank, like a delicate doll that had lost its soul. She stood quietly in place, waiting for instructions.

The Rubik's Cube spoke softly, its voice steady yet carrying an undeniable authority, as if promulgating an ironclad rule:

"From this day forward, you are an extension of my will."

"I need you to take actual control of the entire Water Kingdom and obey my orders to eliminate those useless old nobles."

Then, he took out a specially made kunai from his pocket, with the complex Flying Thunder God technique inscription clearly engraved on it.

"Although I'm not very proficient at using it yet,"

He continued, handing the kunai to Mei Terumi, whose eyes were vacant.

"But basic teleportation is still possible. If something unexpected happens that you can't handle on your own, just channel chakra into this kunai and I'll get to you in time."

"do you understand?"

With lifeless eyes, Mei Terumi mechanically took the kunai, held it tightly in her hand, and then nodded stiffly like a machine receiving a program.

"As for the report on this mission,"

Rubik's Cube added casually at the end.

"You have to figure it out yourself."

After explaining everything, Rubik's Cube disappeared without warning, vanishing from Mei Terumi's sight as if it had never existed, as if it had merged into the shadows.

In the empty, bloody, and deathly silent hall, only Mei Terumi with her vacant eyes and the wreckage scattered on the floor remained.

……

Almost the instant he left the banquet hall, Rubik's Cube appeared in a dense forest not far from the mansion.

He tilted his head slightly, his crimson Sharingan piercing through layers of leaves, precisely locking onto a direction.

He sensed it.

On the branches of a large tree not far away, a familiar yet irritating chakra lingered quietly, as if it had been waiting for a long time.

Beneath the demon mask, his brow furrowed almost imperceptibly as he muttered to himself, his voice tinged with impatience and coldness:

"So they haven't left yet? Those two guys..."

Chapter 76 Come to my side! Rubik's Cube

Chapter 76 Come to my side! Rubik's Cube

The Rubik's Cube moved silently through the moonlit woods, finally stopping under the giant tree.

Without uttering a word, he nimbly leaped onto the thick branch and landed beside the man wearing the swirling mask.

To his surprise, the other person wasn't wearing the iconic swirling mask. A single orange mask lay casually to the side, revealing a young face etched with endless weariness and numbness.

Those eyes stared blankly at the moon in the sky, as if gazing at some distant, or long-gone dream.

Obito seemed to have sensed the arrival of the Rubik's Cube all along. He didn't turn his head, still gazing at the cold moon, before slowly turning his gaze to his son beside him.

Under the moonlight, the boy exuded a strong killing intent, and his scarlet eyes held an unyielding hatred and obsession. The boy's appearance at this moment was so similar to the version of himself he remembered who had crawled out of the hell of Lin's death.

How similar the situation is... How ironic.

Obito's thoughts drifted for a moment. Once upon a time, Madara Uchiha, just like him, looked at himself, utterly despairing of the world, and used alluring words to describe the illusory beauty of the Eye of the Moon Plan.

And now, the roles have reversed, and it's my turn to be in Madara's position? Looking at another "self" filled with hatred for the world.

In an instant, countless prepared narratives surged through his mind: about the falsehood and suffering of this world, about the eternal peace and beauty brought by Infinite Tsukuyomi, about creating a perfect dream where there is no sorrow, no loss, and where cherished people can live happily...

He believed that the boy, who had experienced killing his enemy tonight, witnessing the filth of humanity, and feeling the death of those he cherished due to the persecution of this false world, must have understood his thoughts.

He must now feel the same way he did back then: utter hatred for this filthy world and a yearning for radical change.

This is the best time.

He took a deep breath, turned his head, and prepared to speak, pouring out those seductive and tempting words to completely pull this powerful blood relative with the kaleidoscope power into his camp and make him a fellow traveler in the Eye of the Moon Project.

However, when his gaze truly met the Sharingan eyes of the Rubik's Cube, which were cold yet held a hint of barely perceptible weariness, and when that face, so similar to his own in his youth, came into view...

Those carefully crafted rhetoric, those alluring blueprints, those profound philosophies... all got stuck in my throat and then melted away like snow under the sun.

What came out of my mouth was a greeting that was completely unplanned, dry, and even a bit clumsy and stuttering:

"Are you...are you...okay?"

The moment the question left his lips, Obito felt a sharp pang in his heart, a huge and bitter question flooding him like a tidal wave:

Why... back then... did no one... ask me that question?

At the moment Rin died, at the moment Kakashi's Lightning Blade pierced her chest, at the moment he personally caused the Nine-Tails' rampage, at the moment he witnessed the deaths of his teacher Minato Namikaze and his teacher's wife Kushina... why did no one ever simply and sincerely ask him, "Are you alright now?"

There wasn't even a hint of feigned concern.

Rubik's Cube was clearly taken aback by this completely unexpected question; he had imagined countless scenarios for what would happen if they met.

Fighting, questioning, recruiting, or a cold standoff... but he never expected such a seemingly caring remark.

What he saw on the face of the head of the largest criminal organization in the ninja world, a fanatical savior with unfathomable strength, was not scheming or seduction, but a strange, almost panicked clumsiness and a trace of... indescribable weariness and concern.

He stared at Obito in astonishment, the tomoe spinning in his crimson Sharingan seemed to slow down slightly, and for a moment he didn't know how to respond to this abrupt yet heart-touching greeting.

Only the rustling of the night wind through the leaves remained in the forest, and an indescribable, complex, and subtle silence spread between the two.

The Rubik's Cube lowered its head, seemingly unaccustomed to Obito's direct, unambiguous concern. Slightly awkward, it replied in a voice slightly lower than usual:

"I'm fine... just a little tired."

This is the first time that the Rubik's Cube has shown its vulnerable side in front of Obito, his last blood relative.

His voice carried an unmistakable weariness, a kind of youthful languor buried deep beneath killing and hatred.

He had only ever felt this sense of being cared for and loved since his mother, Chino, passed away, with his generous yet gentle master, Jiraiya.

That was the purest care from family and elders, untainted by any self-interest or calculation.

Hearing this simple answer and looking at the boy with his head down, Obito felt a gentle touch on the softest part of his heart.

At this moment, he didn't even want to talk about the Eye of the Moon project or the changes in the world. He just wanted to ask the child how he had been all these years, what happy memories he had of his mother, whether he had made any close friends, and whether, like him in his youth, he had ever had a girl he loved from the bottom of his heart, a girl with a radiant smile.

Lin......

The thought pierced my heart like a needle, bringing a familiar dull pain.

What am I thinking right now?

Obito suddenly realized that these boring and trivial matters were meaningless to the Eye of the Moon Plan! What I need to do now is to bring him into the plan and use his power to complete the Eye of the Moon Plan faster!

However, another, even stronger voice seemed to be crying out in his heart:

I want this child to accept me; I want to walk the same path with him. Not just using his strength, but as family, as father and son, truly... side by side.

The man who took off his mask seemed to understand his true feelings at that moment. He let down his guard and no longer hid his deepest desires.

He realized at that moment the loneliness he had been suppressing for so long, and the longing for someone he cherished to understand him.

He needed the approval of others, and the Rubik's Cube, the son who carried his bloodline, was proof of Obito Uchiha's existence in this world. His approval was undoubtedly extremely important to him.

He needs a Rubik's Cube.
