New path away from shackles

Did you know?

Every 5* star review will save 1 cat on the planet.

.............................

After enjoying the company of four mermaids for an hour and their massage, I finally decided to leave their pleasant company.

"Obito-sama, why don't you stay, I'm sure you won't regret it..." Taya whispered seductively as she hung on my shoulder.

But gently lifting her waist I just put her back into the pool with a smile.

"I have urgent business right now, I'm sure the next time I visit the island we will be able to get to know each other better."

"I will remember your promise!" - giggling, she dived to her friends who were embarrassed to go out after the three of them could not deal with one rod no matter how hard they tried.

"See you later!" - shouting to them so that they would hear underwater, I went out through the window.

Feeling the wind blowing through the softened skin through the thin shirt and shorts, I still saw before me the nipples of the mermaids and their playful eyes. The way they squirmed, their big breasts, soft skin, hot tongues, and sleek tails.

Landing on one of the chapels, I closed my eyes and reprogrammed myself for the night and forgot about the mermaids. Suppressing fresh memories, I took a deep breath and exhaled. The smile slowly faded from my face and opening my eyes, looking with glassy eyes, I looked down.

"Shadow clons." - having folded the seal with my fingers I dispersed the chakra.

After releasing 30 clones in different directions, I sat down, waiting for information and restoring the chakra while meditating.

Receiving memories from the clones one after another, I watched the city immersed in thoughts and rearranged priorities. With my thoughts on another island, I carefully memorized what I needed to do and repeated it to myself.

Finally, the desired clone exploded in smoke, sending memories to me, finding the right person, and disappearing from the roof in a couple of seconds, moving silently over the roof, I grabbed the person and dragged him into the Kamui dimension without delay.

"Caribou, glad to see you're alive." I smiled and walked closer.

Not for a second scared, Caribou smiled and stuck out his long tongue and answered with a laugh.

"Boss, seeing your strength, I'm just delighted. You turned into a chop this pirate who started a rebellion. I heard from the soldiers that you did it so cruelly that when they dug him up, his body was torn from the inside like mashed potatoes. Hehehehe."

"Alas, he was too weak, I expected that he would withstand the blow. What were you doing all this time?" - crouching on a ledge nearby, I smiled looking at him analyzing.

"You heard that someone robbed Neptune's treasury, didn't you?"

Caribou licked his lips even wider with a smile. Nodding to him, I frowned for the sake of seeming not to understand what was being said.

Jumping off the low rocks, Caribou came out to a spacious place and raised his hands, releasing the swamp. Slowly, the mountain of treasures began to rise up, and looking squinting at the mountain, I found one casket in a pile.

Having jumped down, I went up to the mountain, standing with my back to Caribou and pulling out the box, making a collapse appeared again in its place. While Caribou was silently waiting for praise or something else, I slightly opened it, looked out of the corner of my eye at what was inside, and closed it.

"Well done Caribou. What you have done is truly incredible. Slip into the palace and rob the king himself! If there is something that you want for yourself from this heap of treasures, feel free to take it."

Overjoyed, Caribou went to the heap to watch and admire the radiance. For a pirate, he was too absorbed in the radiance of gold, and considering the precious stones that form only on the seabed, he thought hard about which ones to take for jewelry for his new cape. After all, he hadn't seen so many treasures at once in a long time!

Immersed in thought, he did not notice how I silently descended from the stone, quietly putting the box and went to him silently. Activating the Sharingan and pouring chakra into my palm, I chose one technique that was incredibly simple for any good medic.

Chakra scalpel.

Reaching into his cloak, sharply tearing it and the clothes underneath with my fingers, I felt the skin and muscles torn under my hand until I finally grabbed the heart. Pulling it out, I jumped back. After doing this in a split second i calmed down watching him with cold gaze.

Not feeling all this at first, Caribou only felt cold and only after pain. Clutching his chest where his heart was, he fell to his knees, trying to comprehend what had happened. Compared with me behind and the pain in his back, he turned slowly in disbelief, squeezing his chest with his hands even more. The smile disappeared, there was no fear of death in the eyes. Just not understanding like a child who saw something for the first time in his life.

"Why?" - He croaked, breathing slowly.

Each breath seemed to count down the remaining seconds. Falling face down on the treasure, he still tried to look at me.

"Wh.."

Not finishing he finally let out his last breath with regret and pain in his green eyes.

Dropping his heart, I dragged the body by the leg away until the blood had time to fill all the gold. Having raised one coin in the blood, the heart missed a beat, but immediately continued to beat again at a normal pace.

Remembering how Madara laughed holding my heart and lifting me, I was also once in his place. I knew how he felt. At the moment when the one you trusted betrays you, you will have resentment, anger, and rage on your mind, but the most important thing will be a question.

Why? Why me?

Alas, the fate of Caribou was sealed as soon as he robbed Neptune and pulled out this box giving me more mental troubles. If Big Mom will know this she will hunt me down personally and bring me troubles and only troubles.

Looking at the coin from which the blood dripped on the empty stones I still couldn't figure it out. Why, having lived two lives in darkness and finally found freedom, do I still want to return to this path?

A picture flashed through my mind of Luffy sitting at the table on Sunny and stealing food from the others from the plates while the team yelled at him and protected the remaining food.

I immediately understood one thing.

I am not at the table.

And never will be there.

Living in darkness and madness as Obito, manipulating and being a puppet.

Having lived in a cold and merciless world as Alex, the son of a Russian drug lord who was killed when Alex was 14, and hunted for half his life until he escaped to another country and began to live under a false name, always hiding and working as an ordinary bug in a small company.

I could no longer perceive the light pretending that nothing was happening in the shadows.

Now I'm the new Obito.

And nothing will hold me back from taking what will be mine.

Throwing a coin with a flick on the body of Caribou, I watched with the sharingan as the coin, spraying blood, turned over in the air, ringing from a finger strike. Having folded the seals slowly, gaining air and squeezing it to the maximum pressure, I released a fireball that covered the entire body. Burning it to the ground like a candle that was melting, I watched as only bones remained, but soon they turned into ashes also.

Approaching the box, I pulled out a small cube and put it in my pants pocket, and shook my hand from the blood.

Leaving Kamui dimension, I got to the seawater and washed my hand.

Returning to the palace where I heard music and songs from afar, I decided not to go to them, but to take a walk around the courtyard. Walking along the empty corridors, only occasionally meeting the guards who bowed and did not ask unnecessary questions.

Having reached the passage between the underground towers, I realized that there were two people in front, and leaning against the wall, I crossed my arms listening to their conversation. Looking stupidly at the floor, I did not feel that I was interested in any of this, and only a couple of times I heard the key words I returned to their conversation. The conversation between Neptune and Robin was really quite voluminous, but, I already knew everything and there was nothing new for me.

Taking the cube out of my shorts pocket, I looked at it carefully.

They were ponyglyphs no doubt, but again, I now knew only one person who could read them. While contemplating whether I should give her or keep for myself, I finally realized that they finished talking.

Flickering under the ceiling, hiding, I watched Neptune walking away sad. After sitting for a while, I realized that Robin was not going to leave, and, having landed, I also went to the exit.

"You've overheard enough, don't you?"

Stopping, I looked in the direction where Robin was. Sighing, I walked back to her.

"I was walking around the palace and accidentally stumbled upon you. I still didn't hear almost anything because I was thinking about my own. " - calmly said, I looked at her with matte eyes.

"That's how. You've changed somehow. Something happened?" Robin became too wary.

Looking at me, she lost that kind of relaxation. Apparently, my soulless look frightens her a little.

"A couple of things. Met CP agents and found this on the way back." I pulled out the cube and threw it into her arms. - You can keep it. I'm not interested in that anyway for now. If in the future I will need it back I will find you."

I turned around and walked back towards the exit.

"Robin." - turning before leaving yet deciding to say right away, I distracted her from the emotional shock that she now felt. - "Tell Luffy and others that my journey is over with your team. Good luck to you. Now I will walk my own path."

As soon as I left flickering into the shadows and out of the palace, I put the thoughts of straw hats out of my head. The thought of One Piece didn't interest me as much as the poneglyphs. It happened so I already knew enough.

What I already understood is where One Piece is hidden. Roger never found it, he was just a trigger for the real owner to show up. And perhaps he himself understood this before his death and gave Skanks a mission to prepare a floor for the new king.

I had a hunch about what the government was hiding, about their mistake 800 years ago, drop by drop of information that I had after 2 years in this world and years of living as Alex.

I was only concerned about the future, not the far-forgotten past, however.

"Let's see..." - activating the Mangekyo, I looked at the moon and smiled widely, freeing myself from the shackles and prejudices that I had shackled myself in two years ago.

Okay, so apparently I will be away soon for 4-5 days, and I'm not sure if I will be able to write new chapters.

And the good new's is I finally decided about a Romantic relationship with your help in this story!!

3 Girls. You can try to guess their names if you want.

Robin

(Not only because she won, but I personally like her alot. Her character, her motivations, and her back story. She is one of my 2 waifu in One Piece. The second is on the list also.)

??????

??????

If you somehow will write their names correctly i will reveal them next chapter tommorow xd.

I will try to make a happy family in the end but don't worry I am not going to make stupid Harem. I am going to risk it and each relationship will have a back story.

I am not going Berzerker with it like many other fanfics with 100 wives that love MC because he saved them or smelled good, or some other bullshit.

I have seen your questions about current HQ admirals, Sakazuki, and others. I know that Sengoku retired but not here. I loved his fruit and didn't want to let him go that easy.

Why genjutsu not working on Kizaru will be explained in later chapters.
