Right now, I was walking behind a black looking creature. That's right, I was finally able to get the attention of one of the strongest shinobi and possibly future villain Madara.
I was twelve years old at that time but I had many feats in the war which was going on right now.
First, war soon broke out between Leaf Village and Sand Village when Sasori became rogue and killed a Kazakage but Sand Village blamed it all on Leaf Village. Funny, isn't it? You could say that Leaf village was the US of shinobi world where you could all blame everything that was happening to Leaf Village.
Anyway, the monkey had to send me to war since Tsunade was out of the village and there was only I left as a healer. But I went to war for one condition that I will participate in the war on the front lines too. I was also appointed as Anbu shortly after I met Kushina. Despite my age, I was at the Hokage level since I copied many Hokage level skills throughout the war. I have also acquired all tail beast chakra since unlike the monkey, all other Kage had to use their Jinchūriki in war since Konoha had many Kage level Jonin. I didn't kill any major character since I dealt with masses only.
First I was appointed in Land of Wind to fight against Sand Village. Then Stone Village, Clod Village, and finally Mist Village where I got the attention of Madara through Zetsu. I was late when I arrived as Dai, Gui's father, already used the 8th gate to kill several ninjas of Seven Swordsman of Mistand died.
War was still at its last stage as many villages pulled their forces because of the large number of losses and their Daimo pressuring them. Well, everything was my doing as I worked secretly to increase the losses of every Daimo through publicly exposing their corruption and rebelling through my clones.
Another thing that was different from the original was that Orochimaru didn't become an asshole since I was able to befriend him with my own ideas on how to gain immortality. I have also got some White Zetsu clones, which were spying on every village, and gave all of them to Orochimaru for research. My idea was to make a new body from it, teach the user the Sprit Transformation Technique, and use it to transfer its soul to that clone but this method had way many flaws but workable.
"Quite the place you got there," I said as was walking with Black Zetsu. He didn't say anything and simply opened a door.
Inside it, there was a vast room there was sitting a man with long white hair. However, I was more focused on the thing behind him and the reason why I was even here, Gedō Mazō, otherwise also known as Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. Yes, I had all tail beast chakra but what I want was that thing. Even a part of it would be enough to get my very own tail beast.
"Greetings my fellow Uchiha," Madara said with closed eyes. I knew that he gave his eyes to Nagato but he could still fight. The reason he thought that I was Uchiha was that Zetsu saw me suing Sharingan once and reported it to him. It was intentional on my part because I wanted Madara to notice me.
"How wise of you. As expected from one of two founders of Leaf Village and strongest man alive, Madara Uchiha." I said calmly. Hearing his name from me, I could feel that Madara was now more focused. I could have acted surprised or scared but I knew that the moment I act like one, Madara would sense it and took me as an idiot. I could efficiently manipulate my nerves and mask my chakra but I knew very well that Madara was an experienced fighter and could sense emotion very well even without his eyes.
"Hoo? What gives you the impression that I am the same person? I am now very curious about you." Madara said.
"Haha, I have read the history. Madara dying in one on one fight? I have already known about the hidden attribute of Sharingan, Izanagi. I must say that you have my keen respect." I said calmly.
"Good thing that a fellow Uchiha can acknowledge me…" Madara was impressed. He summons a giant Susanoo hand smashed on me which I easily dodged using Flying Thunder God.
"Although I respect you for your strength, you are quite old to stand against the new better generation. Come back young then we will have a good fight." I said.
"Indeed I am old," Madara said with a cough. He then slowly started to explain his life journey and that he was on the right path to guide this world. I calmly responded to him as I wanted him with favorable conditions. Why? Because if I screw things here, the timeline will be changed and my mission would have failed. "Work with me," Madara said.
"Work with you? Be more specific Madara-san."
"You know your friend Obito right? I want you to protect him and also another person, Nagato. They are very important for my plan." Madara said.
"Deal but I want that thing behind you or at least a part of it." I immediately agreed since it was something that I knew about. He gave his eyes to Nagato as he will be the one who is going to use Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique to revive him again when Akatsuki will engage in war and acquire all tail beasts. As for Obito, he concluded a theory that the kinder the Uchiha is the stronger his Mangekyo ability will be. I knew that his ability could be considered a cheat simply because of its space type.
"You can." Just as he said that I vanished and cut one hand of Gedo Mazo and appeared on the same spot.
"Hehe, this baby is mine. I have to try some experiments on it, haha." I said then looked at Madara and Zetsu, who were looking at me like I was an idiot then wiped my drool and stood again.
"Well then…" Madara nodded at Zetsu who appeared near me to guide me to exit.
"There is one more thing that I want you to try," I said taking out a scroll. He also raised a brow but didn't guard up. With puff smoke, a bowl of ramen came out. "You see Madara-san, before everything else, I am a chef and I want a legend to try my cooking. You can ask this Black thing to taste it if you want but I can assure you that there is nothing harmful. Just pure spirit of a chef." I said and Madara nodded.
"But my lord-"
"It's okay Zetsu. I also heard he is quite a good chef. Let's see if this thing is good as it sounds." Madara said as he held chopsticks with shaking hands and put noodles in his mouth. Suddenly he felt warm and fresh memories of his younger days started to circulate around him. days he spends with his brother to his rivalry with Hashirama and finally founding the village that they so desired but then everything vanished as soon as he started to feel better and looked at the empty bowl in front of him.
"How was it?" I asked.
"Eatable," Madara said with a cough. At that time, I wanted to punch that man. I didn't know that he was a bigger Tsundere than Kurama. I swear at that time that I will bitch slap him during our final fight.
I sighed then walked to the door before I stopped and asked, "Madara-san, did you ever considered making a family like your rival?"
"Never had time for such impudent things."
"Or you were just afraid to lose someone precious again," I said and I could sense him flinch. "If you ever got a chance, would you?" I asked but again didn't get an answer. I sighed and simply decided to leave. That time I found out how much of a coward Madara Uchiha was. Just like me.
