Chapter 108 - Obito And Zetsu: An Untold Story

While sitting on a chair, Akihiko leaned forward as he stared at Nagato who was kneeling in front of him.

Konan was standing a meter away from both of them as she was told to stand there.

"Do you have anything to say?" Akihiko asked as Nagato nodded.

"Then, start talking."

"The Six Paths of Pain that I sent to Konoha… they were all corpses."

"Mm hmm." Akihiko just nodded as Nagato continued.

"One of them is my friend's corpse." Nagato said as Akihiko was indifferent

"Mm hmm."

"He died."

"You already told me that he's a corpse." Akihiko said as Nagato nodded.

"It seems my brain has suffered some damage from the "spar" I had before." Nagato said before he continued.

"As I was saying, he was my friend, well, me, him and Konan were childhood friends. But he was killed by Hanzo the Salamander." Nagato said as he continued.

"Now that I finished the sad backstory, I'll continue to the main part. The eyes that you saw on all of the 6 Paths are called The Rinnegan.

Those eyes were said to be the strongest dojutsu by my teacher, Jiraiya in the past."

"Our teacher." Konan added as Nagato continued.

"But while I was weakened when you defeated all the 6 Paths, Tobi betrayed me. He defeated me at my lowest and managed to take both of my eyes. As for the rinnegan, the Rinnegan can do many things.

I used the Rinnegan to control the 6 Paths and gave each path a part of my power. When we first met in Amegakure, Jiraiya-sensei told me that I fell on the wrong path.

It is correct in his point of view but for me, what I did was the right choice. I will do anything for world peace even if it means killing innocent people.

If I managed to get every tailed beast, I would have been able to complete the plan of world domination. Once everyone feels the same fear, loss and pain, there won't be any more wars in this world. Don't you think so?" Nagato asked as he looked at Akihiko who closed his eyes and supported his face with his hands.

"Nope. I don't think that will work. Not at all."

"Then, what do you think is the best way to get peace?"

"Peace. I never thought about it that much but I guess I'll become a villain. Become a villain so strong that the whole world has to unite to fight against you. Well, that would be disastrous too. They wouldn't even win against me even if I nerfed myself. Hmmm, it's difficult to answer since I never once thought about peace. "

Akihiko was silent for a while before he started talking.

"You know what? I don't even care about world peace. I'll just do whatever I can to help the people." Akihiko said as he got up.

'Did he just dodge the question?'x2

Nagato and Konan both had the same question in their mind as Akihiko asked them another question.

"So, what are you going to do now, Nagato?"

"If possible, can I go back to the Akatsuki base?" Nagato asked as Akihiko turned around and looked at him with a "Are you kidding me?" look.

"Nah. You're going to work your ass off, here. That includes you." Akihiko pointed at Konan.

"Work? Are you trying to make me a slave?" Nagato asked as Akihiko smiled at him.

"Do you want to be a slave? It's fine. I was going to give you some salary in the beginning but it's fine." Akihiko said as Nagato tried to negotiate.

"Ho-"

"Will you work here or will you die right now?"

Being asked this question, Nagato replied with a grim face.

"I'll work."

"Deidara! He'll be your assistant from now on!" Akihiko shouted as Deidara ran as fast as he could and stood near Akihiko.

"Yes, boss! Follow me, you newcomer. I, Deidara, will teach you what to do as your senpai." Deidara said proudly as he didn't know that Nagato was the one who was controlling the Six Paths of Pain.

Nagato didn't move as he thought, 'This guy….. he dares to order me?'

"Huh? Why aren't you coming along?" Deidara said as Nagato replied.

"Who are you to order me?"

Deidara leaned towards Nagato as he threatened him.

"Follow me or else I'll blow you up right now. I have reached a level where I can create extremely tiny bombs. While you opened your mouth earlier, I already placed the bomb inside your body."

'Hmph. Even though it's not that believable, it's best to stay low for now. I do not have the Rinnegan after all.'

"Oh ho ho. Good. I'll treat you nicely, my assistant." Deidara said with a hearty laugh as he patted or slapped Nagato's back. He then dragged him away.

'Well, my bluffs are becoming better and better.' Deidara thought as he was happy.

Nagato didn't know this but he would slowly become close friends with Deidara.

"Wowwwwwww~"

The kids kept making impressed noises as they were looking at their mothers showing them cool tricks.

Haku created a large flower made out of ice while Pakura created several butterflies which were created from fire.

Anko showed them many snakes but the kids were not that interested except for Mirai. Mirai had her eyes shining as she asked Anko.

"Can I pet them?"

"Of course, Mirai." Anko replied warmly as Mirai touched the snake's head. The small snake slithered up her hands and then slowly climbed its way up on Mirai's head and sat there.

"Oh, it seems to like you a lot." Anko said as Mirai was playing around with the snake.

"Do you want it?"

"Mhm."

"Then, you can keep it."

"Thank you~" Mirai hugged Anko as Anko patted her. Even though Mirai and the others weren't her biological child, she and all the mothers already decided to treat all the children as if they were their own daughters.

Then, Kushina managed to get all of the kids' attention as a nine-tailed fox appeared on her shoulders.

Her tails were fluffy and she had a smug smile on her face.

"Huhu, Kushina, you finally decided to take me outside huh? It's been a long time. You also didn't reply to me for some time. Were you doing that intentionally?" Kurumi asked in a cute voice as Kushina just shook her hands.

"No way. Of course, I didn't do that intentionally. I just forgot about you."

"Wahhh! That's even worse!" Kurumi now had some tears in the corner of her eyes.

"I thought we were friends."Kurumi shouted as Kushina raised her right hand to touch Kurumi's small head.

"Hmph! I hate you." Kurumi just said that as she jumped from Kushina's shoulders to the ground.

"Ahhhh! Don't be like that." Kushina said with a smile but Kurumi just hmphed.

She closed her eyes and walked forward but she felt that all her tails were being grabbed as she opened her eyes and looked back.

The kids all grabbed one tail and were playing around with the tail.

"Unhand me."

"Fluffy."

Kushina was laughing at Kurumi's fate while the others were smiling at the kids being very cute.

"Wahhh, unhand me!" Kurumi shouted as she was prepared to leave the kids' grasp.

But then she was hit with a surprise attack. No, it was a combo attack.

"D-do you hate it?" Himeko asked with a stutter as Kurumi almost shook her head.

'No, I cannot give in to their cuteness.' She shouted in her mind with determination.

Kushina and Kurumi were connected so Kushina could hear everything Kurumi was shouting. She was laughing while holding for Kurenai for support.

Then, Kyoko attacked Kurumi with another surprise attack.

"B-but your tail is very fluffy."

"Can we really not touch it?"

Kurumi was bombarded by many attacks as she finally decided to give in.

"Fine. You can touch my tails. Be grateful that you get to touch the great Kurumi's tail." Kurumi said with a snort as the kids thanked her.

They then started rubbing their small hands on Kurumi's tail as Kurumi was slowly feeling relaxed.

The mothers just decided to sit on the ground and just watch the kids play with Kurumi. Anko took out several sake bottles from who knows where and the mothers started drinking the sake in moderate amounts.

[20 minutes later]

Itachi was standing near Akihiko who was eating apples and Konan who was holding a plate with apples on it.

"Akihiko."

*Crunch*

"Mm?" Akihiko asked as he was chewing a piece of the apple.

"Can I ask you to transplant my eyes?"

Akihiko nodded as he finished eating the piece of apple.

"Sure. Where are the eyeballs?"

"Here."

"Alright. Let me go wash my hands. We'll start the transplant after that." Akihiko said as Konan was deadpanning.

'Ah…. Uchihas and their infamous antics of exchanging eyeballs. They don't even flinch and just grab their eyeballs out of their eye sockets.' She commented in her mind.

Akihiko went and washed his hands. Afterwards, he and Itachi teleported away as Konan was left alone again.

'What should I do?'

-----

[In a dark hideout]

"Obito, are you alright?"

"Yes, I'm fine. Zetsu, implant the Rinnegan in my left eye. I'll keep the other eye hidden. After all, I cannot handle the power of both rinnegans at once."

Zetsu, who was currently half black, half white answered.

"Sure."

He started preparing as Obito wanted to know about the Uchiha Household in Konoha.

"Zetsu, you once said that you were suspicious of the Uchiha Household in Konoha right? Tell me more about it."

"I cannot enter the house. I was repelled by the seal."

"What? Didn't you say that you can infiltrate any place you want?"

"Yes, but this time it's different. It's most likely that the person who made the seal is extremely skilled at fuinjutsu."

"Do you have any idea who made it?"

"I continued on spy on the house for quite some time. Lots of people are living in the house, including the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki. There are even children."

Hearing Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, Obito remembered about Kushina and the newborn child on the day of the Kyuubi attack that he initiated. However, he dismissed it.

"Then, who's the person who made the seal?"

"It should be the man named Akihiko."

"Akihiko? Never heard of him."

"He's an extremely strong person hidden in Konoha. Most people would think that he's quite weak but if you can sense the energy inside him, you would get probably get terrified."

"With the Rinnegan and Kamui, what are the chances of winning against him?"

"40." Zetsu answered as Obito frowned.

"He defeated all the Pain today. And without breaking a sweat. He even survived an explosion of around a billion explosion tags." Zetsu answered as he tried to stalk Akihiko every day.

"Does he seem to have any close relationship with the other jinchuurikis?"

"Of course. He is close to Yugito, the Two-Tails Jinchuuriki and after a little bit of snooping around, I heard that he's also close to Bee."

"I see. Leave the Eighth Tail for a while. We can capture it after we capture the Nine-Tails. Use the Two Tails as bait. When he leaves the house, we'll use Kamui to enter the house and capture the Nine-Tails."

"Be careful, Obito. Do not get defeated."

[30 minutes later]

Itachi finished his eye transplant and he was amazed with the design of his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

"This…. I like it. This looks good."

"Well, it's a lot similar to Sasuke's Eternal Mangekyou too." Akihiko said as Itachi nodded seriously.

"That's even better. We will have matching eyes." Itachi said as Akihiko shook his head.

"Anyway, wanna go and test out your power?"

"No. I have something much more important to do. My power which was lost when my sharingans were taken."

"What is it? Susanoo? Amaterasu?"

"No. My skills to cook a perfect egg."

"*sigh* Let's go. Don't forget to make lots of them. Today's dinner will be on you." Akihiko said as Itachi nodded.

They teleported as they entered the house. They saw Kushina, Mikoto, Yugao, Izumi, Anko, Pakura, Haku, Kurenai, Ayame, Sasuke and Karin talking to each other. Konan was still a bit awkward but she was also talking from time to time.

Jugo was also sitting near them as he talked in a low voice. He's shy to talk to them.

"Oh, hello Akihiko. Itachi." They greeted them and right immediately, they noticed something different about Itachi.

"Congratulations. You got your eyesight back!"

"Thank you." Itachi bowed before going to the kitchen and starting to make perfect eggs.

"I'm back. I'm tired today." Akihiko said as the wives smiled in a playful and flirtatious manner.

"Well, you won't be tired in a few hours~"

"Yeah, right." Akihiko closed his eyes and smiled as everyone else in the circle knew what they were talking about, except for Sasuke.

Even though he swears, he doesn't know the meaning of the word, fuck.

"Where are the kids?"

"They're in the bedroom."

"I'll go check on them." Akihiko said as he walked to the kids' bedroom. He opened the door slowly as he saw the kids all sleeping close to each other. In the middle, a fox was also sleeping with her tails being grabbed by the kids.

Akihiko smiled before closing the door quietly again. He went back and talked with the adults while Itachi has already wasted 20 eggs trying to cook the perfect egg. At last, he managed to make one.

"Here. I have the perfect egg." He said as he showed the egg.

"Oh, that's nice. Can you make one for all of us?" Mikoto said as Itachi nodded.

"I'll follow your command, mother."

That day, Itachi managed to waste over 150 eggs and got scolded by Mikoto for a long time. Sasuke was having fun watching this as he was grinning widely. The kids also woke up after a few hours and got to eat the perfect egg.

This is the best sibling relationship one could ask for.

Then, the day finally ended but it didn't end without Akihiko and the wives' snu snu section.

[a/n: Please give them privacy. This is definitely not because I'm too lazy.]
