Orochimaru

In a certain hideout.

A man with a white mask on his face was currently sitting on the edge of the roof.

One leg dangled freely while the other was propped up as this man thought to himself.

One of his eyes was closed, but the other one had the famous Uchiha bloodline trait, the Sharingan.

This was Uchiha Obito.

And at this moment he no longer called himself Madara.

'Sigh,'

At this moment he was waiting for a certain someone while thinking about various things internally.

One of which was the recent complete defeat they had suffered.

He wasn't an aimless person, and he hadn't sought to create that group just for fun.

The manipulations go deeper.

Way deep. Enough that he had even managed to fool Nagato into doing as he wished. His manipulations ran so far, that the whole Akatsuki became enthralled in his plans along with Madara.

But now, it was all for nothing.

'That guy…' It was Ren. He and his group were the main points everything had failed.

To this day he didn't know how they were able to teleport all over the place and thwart every plan he had.

'He'll get his own share of troubles sooner than later,' Obito knew this.

Well, at any rate, it wasn't for nothing, as he didn't fail the mission at least.

The purpose he was gunning for wasn't completely achieved but it nonetheless was reached.

He would have liked to get the tailed beasts. But it seemed like due to some annoying people, he couldn't reach that end.

So now, he had to settle for the tailed beasts he already has, and for the rest just their chakra to finally start his final world peace plan.

But the plan he agreed with Madara on…

Nagato, the pawn they were going to use for that plan, was no longer just a pawn.

He rebelled, and now he couldn't convince the guy to go with 'that' plan.

'And I won't do it myself!' A resolute look flashed across Obito's eyes. Especially since the side effects weren't something he could bare himself.

It seems Madara's plans were going to get shelved for now.

'Even if Nagato was still on our side, whether I'll go with your plans Madara or not…'

Obito even before was undecided, but now he was resolute in his choice.

There was a huge chance he wasn't going to follow that plan of Madara before, but now it was100%.

'The plan 'You' had Madara… I'll take it upon myself to do it!'

His one open eye glinted with a fierce resolute light.

'And this time, no one can stop me!'

Whoever stepped in his way for world peace… he would kill them. SSS rank? At that time, they would be like children to him.

His hands clenched as he waited patiently.

Just as he was thinking to himself, another person suddenly came near.

"You're here," Obito didn't turn around to greet him as this person joined him on the side and also gazed at this city from atop the hideout.

At this moment, his power wasn't something that can be underestimated by anyone, which is why the person near him was slightly respectful of him and didn't dare attack or look down on him.

But nonetheless, he lived up to his name as he shook the feeling away and smiled with ease.

"Obito Uchiha, such an interesting person… I have been meaning to meet you for a while," This person looked at him sideways and spoke.

But as expected, Obito didn't react at all.

"Such a cold response, hehe…" The person laughed with an irritating voice that grated on Obito's mind.

"Cut the crap,"

Obito's response was cold.

"No need to be so angry, hehe, I have come to hear the plan you have in person as you wished after all,"

This pale-faced person, had his arms laid down gently and his posture wasn't too rigid as if he was calm at this moment.

A purple Obie was tied on his waist, and his long hair was draped on his back.

This person was Orochimaru!

And he had been contacted by Obito for some plan he had.

"Orochimaru, it seems like you are as confident as usual,"

At that moment, seeing Orochimaru near him acting this way, Obito suddenly opened his second eye.

In it, the Rinnegan gleamed menacingly, and it brought shivers on Orochimaru's body as soon as he saw Obito look at him with it.

'It's true,'

Orochimaru didn't know about it before, but now he was finally sure that Obito had the legendary eye of the six paths sage.

That was one dangerous ocular power to have, and Orochimaru knew it was way better than the Sharingan he was after.

Still, it won't do to provoke Obito who has very troublesome abilities he can use…

"Then, what's the plan you wish to say?"

He got to business as he asked Obito.

It seemed that while the Akatsuki trouble was finished for now, Obito was nowhere near done.

Meanwhile, while trouble, as usual, continued on brewing in the world…

Ren was having a fun time today as well.

After his day in his mansion which in the end it turned into an orgy with many of his girls joining so actively in the morning, Ren had his fun with them, and they then went about their days.

For him though, today was the date day with a certain blue-haired girl he had made the schedule with on the phone.

And it was someone that both Sakura and Tsunade knew.

That was Sicily.

For her, he had planned a very amazing date, much like before with Momo.

He devised a plan where he'll take her around various places where they could have fun and taste some delicious foods, and even take some amazing pictures together, and finally, for the main part, there was a certain underwater park that required special tickets to enter.

Of course, since he was SSS rank, it was easier for him, but it wouldn't be the same for others unless they had a lot of money to spare.

At any rate, this underwater park would enable them to see various marine lifeforms that would otherwise be very hard to see in general.

One would ride in an underwater ride, and while playing the in various fun rides, you would also observe the tamed marine lifeforms, which Ren had found out was something very important to her from Sakura.

Sicily liked everything to do with water, and even more so for marine pets and exotic aquatic animals.

Right now, he just entered the cafe where they were going to meet.

And then he saw her.

She was simply stunning.

In terms of beauty, she definitely wouldn't lose to any girl Ren knew.

And while she didn't exude a high amount of sexiness, her face was full of the kindness she was made of.

Her personality was also good, which made him interested in her very much so.

As today was a sunny day, she was wearing a sun dress and simple sandals.

This led to her toned legs being shown all the way, and Ren certainly admired the view.

Her surprisingly full breasts were also shown enough through her dress, and Ren found himself attracted to her.

"Mister Ren, over here,"

As if noticing his form nearby, she suddenly stood up with one hand on the table and waved for him with the other one.

She had a bright smile on her face as she looked at him.

And it was infectious as Ren gave one back.

He then started climbing to the second floor where she was located.

'Well, let's have a cup of coffee first'

He decided to first chat with her for a bit, and only then would they start their fun day.

When he stepped closer to where Sicily was, and after he ordered from a nearby waitress, Ren went next to her and greeted.

"Sicily, how have you been?"

She had long told him to say her name directly, and he wasn't about to do the opposite.

"Hehe, Ren, I've been good, but not as much as you,"

She giggled as she got up and gave him a hug.

Ren returned her hug before the two then sat down.

"You've gotten really famous this time, Ren"

She was talking about his newest rank reveal, which dubbed him as the youngest ever SSS rank.

Of course, no research went into that to verify it deeply, but if someone reached it before him, they must have hidden it at least.

At any rate, Sicily told him with a smile.

But it was clear that something was on her mind in regards to that, so Ren smiled to ease her.

"Oh, pay it no mind, and by the way, I saw you at that fight, yeah, but you were very busy, so we didn't have too much time to chat,"

Ren said easily and calmly, and it seemed to work as Sicily sported a smile.

"That's right, I was very busy, and I also saw you, but the circumstances didn't permit us to meet… At any rate, I couldn't thank you at that time, so I wish to do it now,"

Sicily adopted a deep look of concentration on her face and Ren stayed silent to allow her to speak.

"I'm very thankful for you saving us, and saving master Tsunade's agency, and generally all the people there at that time, if it wasn't for you, we would have all died. So, thank you, Ren!"

When she finished, she stood up and once again reached for a hug.

Ren didn't let her down.
