Multiversal Chat Group: The Cultivator

A pierced heart.

An ordinary person would already be dead.

But Uchiha Obito was no ordinary person.

Half of his body was made of Hashirama's cells. Even with his heart impaled, he wouldn't die.

In the future, Kakashi would pierce Obito's heart with Chidori, yet Obito would survive and still become the Sage of Six Paths.

"I got you!"

Obito's voice rang out.

Learning from experience.

If Shisui Uchiha dared to use his life as bait—then so could Obito.

For the Eye of the Moon Plan, Obito had already gone mad.

A spiraling distortion appeared in his eye.

The space around them began to warp.

A terrifying force of suction locked onto Shisui.

Shisui's heart pounded. A deep, overwhelming sense of danger filled him.

If he got sucked in, something terrible would happen.

"Die, Uchiha Shisui!"

The pull intensified.

Without hesitation, Shisui released his grip on the sword, using his unparalleled Body Flicker to escape the vortex.

Though he had avoided the danger, the price was heavy.

His right hand, which had been holding the sword, was now grotesquely twisted.

"You really are decisive! As expected of Uchiha's genius."

With his left hand, Shisui pulled out a kunai from his pouch.

So what if he had lost his sword? He was still Shunshin no Shisui.

"I didn't expect it to be over so soon."

Obito spoke, the sword still embedded in his chest.

As he phased, the blade slipped out and clattered to the ground.

A single slash. A direct hit to the heart. These two injuries were enough to make Obito retreat for a while.

Continuing the fight was meaningless.

Without hesitation, Obito chose to leave.

"Goodbye, Uchiha Shisui. I hope you're still alive the next time we meet."

Another spiraling distortion appeared, this time pulling Obito into it.

And just like that, Obito vanished.

"What a terrifying ability… This power might even bypass barriers. I must report this to the Fourth Hokage immediately!"

Wasting no time, Shisui flickered forward, retrieving his fallen sword before disappearing into the building.

—-—

Naruto Uzumaki was born.

Kushina Uzumaki had given it her all.

Her face was pale.

"Waaah! Waaah!"

Naruto's cries were strong and loud—a healthy baby.

Sarutobi Biwako cradled the crying newborn.

"Congratulations, Fourth Hokage. He's a very healthy child."

A soft smile appeared on Kushina's lips, though tears slipped from the corners of her eyes.

"That's wonderful…"

For the first time, Minato Namikaze was a father.

Looking at Biwako, who held his healthy son, Minato felt an overwhelming happiness.

"Thank goodness, Naruto!"

Wrapped in a soft cloth, only half of Naruto's tiny body was visible.

His loud cries echoed through the room.

Three whisker-like marks adorned each cheek, giving him an adorable look.

A trembling, excited heart.

"Tsuch a good child… From today onward, I'm a father."

Seeing the newborn, Sarutobi Biwako smiled.

"Let the child see his mother first."

Minato Namikaze nodded.

Biwako carried the baby over to Kushina Uzumaki and placed him beside her head.

"What a lively child."

Kushina turned to look at her son.

"Naruto… I finally get to see you."

After giving birth, she needed to rest and recover.

Minato began reinforcing the seal.

At that moment, Uchiha Shisui appeared.

His right hand was twisted unnaturally.

"Fourth Hokage… something's happened."

Minato's body tensed slightly. Seeing Shisui's injuries, he immediately understood—Uchiha Obito had been here.

Shisui knelt on one knee and quickly reported everything that had just happened.

But when he mentioned the Uchiha Clan, he hesitated.

He also explained that the enemy could use Wood Release and had survived despite having his heart pierced.

Minato took a deep breath.

"You've done well, Shisui. I'll handle this matter. Don't worry—I won't give up on reconciling the Uchiha Clan and the villagers just because of this incident."

Hearing Minato's warm words, Shisui felt a pang of guilt.

Even though the enemy had been driven away, he hadn't killed him.

If the enemy wasn't eliminated, he would return.

That made the current situation even more dangerous.

"My apologies, Fourth Hokage… His abilities are simply too strange."

Shisui spoke seriously.

Minato continued suppressing the restless Nine-Tails.

Just then, an explosion echoed from the direction of the Hidden Leaf Village.

Minato's pupils contracted.

"What's going on?! Did he attack the village?"

At that moment, Konoha was engulfed in flames.

Countless White Zetsu emerged from the ground.

On the Hokage Rock, Black Zetsu and Uchiha Obito stood overlooking the chaos.

"Looks like I can't do this alone… I didn't expect Uchiha Shisui to be this strong."

Obito gazed coldly at the burning village.

Beside him, Black Zetsu shrugged.

"Konoha is the number one village in the ninja world. The Uchiha are its strongest clan. And Uchiha Shisui is the clan's most talented genius. It's normal that you couldn't beat him. Does your chest still hurt?"

Obito touched his chest. The wound that had been pierced through was already filled with Hashirama's cells.

"My heart hasn't felt pain in a long time. This fake world… should have disappeared long ago."

Though his ambush had failed, Obito didn't give up. Instead, he launched an even greater assault.

The White Zetsu Army—his hidden trump card.

Each White Zetsu had the strength of a chunin, and through fusion, they could form larger entities with jōnin-level power.

They could even absorb an enemy's chakra to mimic their abilities.

Caught off guard, Konoha was thrown into chaos.

The Uchiha Clan mobilized in full force.

Countless crimson-eyed warriors swiftly cut down the invading White Zetsu.

The White Zetsu, covered in sharp wooden thorns, attacked anyone they saw.

But Konoha's strength was formidable. Within moments, dozens of White Zetsu were taken down.

Yet, from underground, hundreds more White Zetsu emerged—some of them massive.

White spores drifted in the wind.

The moment they latched onto a ninja, they rapidly grew, draining their chakra completely.

At this point, the Anbu also joined the battle.

Regular ninjas focused on evacuating civilians.

Uchiha Itachi carried his younger brother, Sasuke, through the battlefield.

Uchiha Fugaku, after cutting down a White Zetsu, glanced at his son.

"Have the Uchiha help with the evacuation as well. This enemy… is not easy to deal with."
