Naruto Immersive Replay, The Curse of the Sharingan

Page 205

"She's yours? How laughable," Otherworldly Madara sneered. "A coward who doesn't even dare to admit his own feelings dares to say such things?"

Ban's eyes instantly turned dangerous. He slowly straightened up, but still shielded you behind him. "Looks like the imposter has delivered himself to our doorstep."

The two Uchiha Madaras faced off, their chakra clashing violently in the air, even dispersing the surrounding mist. Standing between them, you felt a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Wait, you guys—" You tried to mediate, but were interrupted by the otherworldly Madara.

“Nagi, stay away from him.” Madara from Another World stretched out his hand, his eyes suddenly softening. “Come to me, and I will tell you the truth about Hannya.”

Upon hearing the name, your body involuntarily leaned forward slightly. This subtle movement did not escape Ban's notice, and he grabbed your wrist.

"Don't be fooled by him." Madara's voice carried a warning. "So what if I'm from another world? Uchiha Madara is Uchiha Madara, and that will never change."

As Madara from Another World watched him grab your hand, a bitter look flashed in his eyes. How familiar this scene was. How long ago was it that he, too, used forceful methods to imprison Nagi by his side, thinking that he could possess her forever.

“You’re right,” Madara from another world suddenly laughed, his smile filled with endless desolation. “Uchiha Madara will never change, just like I did back then, using every means to keep her by my side, only to lose her in the end.”

These words made Ban pause slightly, and you took the opportunity to break free from his hand, only to fall into deeper confusion.

"What exactly are you trying to say?" You looked directly into the eyes of the otherworldly Ban. "If you truly understand Prajna, please tell me the truth."

Madara's gaze softened, and he took a step forward, only to be stopped by Madara halfway.

"Stay away from her." Ban's voice was as cold as ice. "I won't say it a second time."

Looking at the man before him, who was exactly like him yet not quite the same, Madara from Another World suddenly felt a sense of absurd irony.

Is this what he used to be like? So tough, so arrogant, believing that power could solve everything?

"Do you know?" the otherworldly Madara said softly, his gaze passing over him to look at you, "In my world, Nagi died in my arms, and I... I traveled through countless time and space, enduring the pain of my soul being torn apart, just to find her and make up for that mistake."

Your breath caught in your throat. The pain in Ban's eyes was so real that it made your heart clench. You involuntarily took a step forward, only to be pulled back by Ban.

“A touching story,” Madara sneered, “but Nagi is still alive here, and she doesn’t belong to you.”

"Just because she doesn't belong to me, does that mean she belongs to you?" the otherworldly version of Madara retorted. "You don't even dare to admit your feelings for her."

A flicker of emotion crossed Madara's eyes, but he quickly regained his indifference. "Emotions are the excuse of the weak. Nagi is my property, and that's enough."

"Own possessions?" Another World Madara suddenly laughed, but his laughter was filled with sorrow. "I used to think that way too, until the moment I lost her I realized... I can love, and I can love more madly than anyone else."

These words pierced Ban's heart like a sharp sword. His pupils contracted slightly, and the pressure on his hand unconsciously increased, making you gasp.

"You're hurting her." The otherworldly Madara's eyes turned cold instantly. "Let her go."

"Why should I?" Ban raised an eyebrow defiantly.

You stand before a long table, your fingertips lightly tracing the mountain of forbidden technique scrolls. Behind you are two Uchiha Madaras, one from the present world and the other from another, each occupying a corner, their gazes sharp as blades, silently clashing.

Otherworldly Madara sneered and tapped another scroll with his finger. "Impure World Reincarnation Improved Version. It can preserve consciousness, but it requires a living sacrifice."

Your fingertips paused slightly. "No." You raised your eyes and swept your gaze over them. "I won't trade someone else's life for hers."

The air suddenly solidified.

Ban narrowed his eyes, while Ban from Another World slightly curled the corners of his lips. Both of them read a certain obsession in your rejection, and this obsession just happened to be the one they were most familiar with.

“Nagi,” Madara’s voice suddenly softened, carrying a seductive undertone, “what if I said… I’m willing to be that sacrifice?”

Ban's pupils suddenly contracted!

You suddenly look up and see that the otherworldly Madara is staring at you, his eyes filled with emotions you can't understand—like madness, or like a kind of tenderness that is almost desperate.

"You..." Your voice trembled slightly.

"Anyway, my world is already destroyed," he chuckled. "If I could get her back, that wouldn't be so bad."

Madara's chakra surged instantly! His black hair moved without wind as he grabbed the collar of the otherworldly Madara, his voice icy cold, "Don't try to sway her with words like that."

The otherworldly Madara neither dodged nor flinched, but simply looked at him calmly, "What, are you scared? Scared that she'll really agree?"

"The Yin-Yang Release fusion technique should use the Tailed Beast's chakra as a medium." Madara leaned on the table behind you with one hand, pointing to a passage of text with the other.

“Foolish.” Madara from Another World sneered, his black haori sweeping across the scroll. “What is needed is the resonance of spacetime chakra.”

The moment their eyes met, sparks flew from the friction of chakra in the air. You abruptly slammed the scroll shut, the crisp "snap" finally breaking the silent standoff.

"Shut up, all of you." You rubbed your temples. "You're giving me a headache."

Surprisingly, both Uchiha clan leaders remained silent at the same time.

The resurrected Madara snorted coldly and retreated to the window, while the otherworldly Madara gently pushed a cup of hot tea toward you—

This subtle gesture sent shockwaves through everyone present. That was Uchiha Madara, and he was actually... showing consideration?

"What's going on?" Nagato whispered, pulling Obito closer. Obito's mask cracked open. "How should I know! That Madara from another world has been like this ever since he woke up!"

Before he could finish speaking, Madara from Another World suddenly turned his head and said, "Kid, hand over the scroll of the Flying Thunder God Technique."

This matter-of-fact ordering instantly enraged Obito. "Who are you calling a brat?!"

Otherworldly Ban didn't even bother to look up, lightly tapping the table with his finger, "Hurry up."

Madara suddenly let out a sneer, clearly enjoying watching his other self teach Obito a lesson.

You couldn't help but facepalm. These two were just on the verge of exchanging blows, and now they've actually reached a consensus on bullying Obito?

Ban suddenly walked up to you and forcefully put his arm around your waist. "Don't look at my woman like that."

Surprisingly, the otherworldly Madara did not get angry. "Don't worry... I only want her."

At night, you go out onto the terrace alone for some fresh air, only to see Ban from another world gazing up at the moon. It's not the blood moon of this time and space, corrupted by the Infinite Tsukuyomi, but the most ordinary, bright full moon.

“She loves the full moon,” he suddenly said, “saying that such moonlight…is perfect for changing dressings on wounds.”

Your heart skips a beat; this is one of Nagi's little habits.

"You know her very well."

Moonlight shimmered in the eyes of the otherworldly Madara. "Not enough understanding... otherwise, how could I not have noticed her secretly preparing a forbidden space-time technique?" He suddenly turned to you. "You can sense her presence, right?"

You pause for a moment, then gently press your hand to your heart. "Here... it's faint, but it definitely exists."

"That's enough." A genuine smile finally appeared on the lips of the otherworldly Madara. "I will wait until the day when the laws of spacetime allow it."

Ban appeared out of nowhere in the shadows of the pillars, arms crossed, and sneered, "Don't die in my world."

“Likewise,” Ban retorted from another world. “Don’t let her become a second tragedy.”

Under the moonlight, the two Uchiha Madaras looked at each other across the distance, with an eerie tacit understanding between them.

And as you look at them, you suddenly realize that no matter which timeline the Uchiha clan is in, their way of loving someone is always so clumsy and obsessive.

Chapter 195 Existence

Deep within my soul, some ancient resonance resonates.

Showa's figure emerged from the chaos, her pale fingers gently touching Uchiha Nagi's spirit, her eyes flashing with an almost morbid fanaticism.

“Finally… finally, it’s here…” Her voice trembled, as if a longing suppressed for a hundred years had finally found an outlet.

The power of Prajna from all around converged wildly like a vortex, and the dark energy transformed into tangible threads that wrapped around Nagi's body, seeping into her skin inch by inch.

Showa was so excited by this scene that he trembled all over, his fingertips almost digging into his palms.

"Is this... the birth of a miracle...?" she murmured, mesmerized, her eyes reddening and tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.

Nagi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and the next second, she suddenly opened her eyes.

What eyes they were!

His once jet-black pupils now gleamed with a golden luster, sharp and cold, as if they could pierce through all the illusions of the world.

She slowly sat up, her long hair cascading down like a waterfall, and the aura surrounding her made the air seem to freeze.

Showa laughed maniacally to the side, then suddenly knelt down, covered her face and cried out in pain. Her emotions surged violently like a storm, as if she had been waiting for this moment for far too long.

Nagi looked at her calmly, her expression indifferent.

“Sandalus…” Nagi murmured the name, her voice as soft as a sigh, yet carrying an unwavering resolve.

Even knowing that the next choice will lead to an uncontrollable separation...

Even knowing that she might never be able to return to Madara's side... she still made up her mind.

Black Zetsu was pinned to the stone wall by the black rods of Yin-Yang Release. His pitch-black body writhed restlessly, and his white eyes contracted violently when he saw the two spots in front of him.

"What...what's going on?"

Its sound was like it had been sanded, with an unbelievable tremor.

Having just been resurrected by Madara and forced to reveal the truth through his Rinnegan, Black Zetsu now faces another Madara Uchiha from another world. For the first time, Black Zetsu experiences true despair.

Madara took a step forward, the hem of his black haori brushing against the ground with a soft rustling sound. His right Rinnegan was covered in cracks, yet it still exuded a suffocating sense of oppression.

"What is the true intention behind Project Eye of the Moon?" he said softly. "Tell me."

Black Zetsu's body convulsed violently, and thick black liquid seeped from his wounds. "I... I already said... it was to save my mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki..."

In the corner, Ban sneered and leaned against the wall with his arms crossed. His gaze swept over everyone present.

A hint of shock flashed in Nagato's Rinnegan, the cracks in Obito's mask widened, and even the usually calm Itachi unconsciously tightened his grip on his kunai.

“Otsutsuki…” Nagato repeated the surname in a low voice, and images of the Sage of Six Paths appeared in his purple Rinnegan.

Madara's expression was surprisingly calm. He thought he would be furious and lose control when he heard the truth with his own ears, just like when he found out about Hashirama Senju's betrayal.

But at this moment, all he felt was a desolate calm.

"So, your pawn is the reincarnation of Indra." Madara's voice was flat.

Black Zetsu sneered, "That's right, from Indra to Madara, and then to Obito... you were all my tools!"

Madara's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his chakra pressed down on him as if it were a tangible force.

"Tools?" he sneered. "With what?"

Black Zetsu was intimidated by his imposing aura and instinctively shrank back, but quickly laughed sinisterly again, "But you did act according to my plan, didn't you? Uchiha Madara, you think your ideals are yours? No, they were instilled in you by me!"

Ban suddenly chuckled softly, "How ironic." He said in a low voice, "The ideal I pursued all my life turned out to be a deception."

His tone was indifferent, yet it sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.

"Ban." You suddenly spoke, walked to his side, and gently took his hand.

Your fingertips were slightly cool, yet carried a certain unwavering strength. "Your ideals have never been fake," you said softly. "Even if you were being used, your desire to change the world was real."

Ban was slightly taken aback.

The gaze of the otherworldly being fell on your clasped hands, his eyes dark and unfathomable.

Obito scoffed, "Hey, hey, talking about love at a time like this?"

You ignored Obito's teasing and just looked at Madara with focused eyes, "So, don't deny yourself."

Ban was silent for a moment, then suddenly reached out and gripped your fingers tightly.

Black Zetsu watched this scene and suddenly let out a sinister laugh. "How touching... Too bad, did you think it would end like this?"

Its body suddenly began to twist, its dark form writhing like liquid as it tried to break free of its restraints.

"The power of motherhood... is reviving! You cannot stop it!"

"Shut up," Madara said coldly, raising his hand to unleash a Myriad Manifestations Pull, tearing Black Zetsu's body apart instantly with an invisible force, causing him to let out a shrill scream.

The otherworldly figure looked at you and asked, "What do you plan to do?"

You walk up to Black Zetsu, your black eyes fixed on it.

"Black Zetsu, you made a mistake," you said softly.

Black Zetsu struggled to lift his head, "What... mistake?"

A slight smile played on your lips. "You shouldn't have let me know about Kaguya's existence."

"So, I'll help you make your dream come true. Surprised?"

Your voice is so light and cheerful, as if you're discussing today's weather, rather than unleashing something powerful enough to destroy the world.

Black Zetsu's pupils suddenly contracted. "What...what are you saying?"

You tilted your head. "It'll help you see your mother sooner! You're welcome!"

His tone was so relaxed it was almost naive, as if he were simply sharing a fun game.

The cave fell into a deathly silence.
