An Invitation!

I arrived at the Naka Shrine, I just needed to get the quest over with so I could get the next one, although the conditions to evolve my eyes would be through the system rather than a friendly eye-swap with my brother. Doing the unsealing Jutsu I entered the Naka Shrine, activating my sensing I searched and found the place to be empty so I quickly scanned the stone tablet.

...

A lot more of the story was revealed now, like how while selecting his heir, Hagoromo chose Ashura Ōtsutsuki as his heir, resulting in a feud between his brother and him to be the inheritor of Ninshu, how Ashura and Indra both created Ninjutsu by combining Ninshu with Physical energy. How in the end Ashura went for the darker path as he thought about how his father was afraid of the power his own mother possessed so he was afraid of the talents that Indra possessed and made Ashura the heir to Ninshu.

The story then detailed about how Indra became powerful, and how he managed to achieve that power, the tablet then mentioned the EMS, how it would stop your deteriorating eyesight, in the case of Indra as he was the true inheritor of Ninshu, he was able to supplement his eyes with his own emotions and spiritual power to get to the next level, and as his descendants, although you do have the capacity of EMS, it would be better served if you replaced your eyes with someone, a close relative of yours whose MS compliments your own.

'What the fuck is this bullshit... now that I think about it how did Indra use perfect Susanoo without a pair of eyes to swap too... I'm pretty sure he only awakened the Mangekyo before he attacked Ashura and then was defeated with the power of friendship or something...'

I sensed him moments before he started speaking, "It's puzzling isn't it, knowing so much of our history is buried under a shrine with few people even capable of reading it, oh how far the clan had fallen since the days..." I activated my Mangekyo as soon as I turned and faced him, he was wearing his orange mask, the older version with black tattoos on it.

My Kunai went sailing towards his face as I concentrated on Kamui and tried to see if I can get a feel for his dimension, but Obito grabbed the kunai and tucked it in his pouch, "Now now, let's not ruin this nice reunion between the two true descendants of the Uchiha clan... as I was saying, it is interesting isn't it, the story of Ashura and Indra, two brothers destined to fight while the rightful heir lost his throne," Obito mentioned to the side and I saw Zetsu emerge from the ground, my senses have failed to detect him, his chakra was perfectly melded with the ground until he left it.

"Do you wanna know what is written on the stone after this, its the plan to salvage the Uchiha clan... you see how we are being treated by Konoha, one of the founding clans, the rightful heir to the seat of Hokage, but to avoid a war, they had agreed to murder you, an eight-year-old kid and use him as a tool to wave the flag for peace and prosperity..." Obito was a really good actor I'll give him that, maybe he was channeling his anger from somewhere else, "BECAUSE When I and HASHIRAMA created this village it was so that the kids won't have to fight a war they don't have to so that they could have their light for a few more years... not to be used as tools to avoid a war that was never going to happen," he shook his head sadly and I stammered out, "M-madara Uchiha" my reaction to his identity should be appropriate, I pulled out my swords and flared my Mangekyo, "What are you doing here, how are you even alive." my words conveyed in a rush as I stared at the man responsible for killing Fujii's parents.

I know I had nothing to do with the kid and his family, but the hatred I suddenly felt bubbled at the surface before it was quashed by the gamer's mind, the Uchiha curse of Hatred was really annoying to deal with, thankfully Gamer's mind helped with that, "You aren't asking the right questions young Uchiha," Obito spoke and I internally cursed at the masquerading bastard, he should be 16 right, who gave him the right to act so high and mighty.

'Right Madara did, anyway... what do I do with this...'

"What is written on the tablet?" I asked and I could see his grin behind the mask, "written in the tablet left by our ancestor Indra are the instructions on how to salvage this broken world, a world where everyone kills everyone, It tells of a plan on how to achieve peace, but achieving peace isn't easy, I have been working on the plan for decades and it finally is about time to start preparations for it, will you join me?"

I stared at him for a second as another quest appeared in front of me.

...

[Legendary Chain Quest Received: Join Akatsuki]

[Objective: The Akatsuki is a powerful organization once created by the three surviving Orphans under Hanzo's reign, the organization was twisted by Yahiko's death and Obito's manipulation. The new goal of the organization is to gather all 9 bijuu's and create a weapon to force the Shinobi nations to surrender.]

[Quest Clear Condition: Join the Akatsuki.]

[Hidden Objective 1: ??]

[Rewards: 1x Level]

[Hidden Rewards : ???]

...

My gaze lingered at the quest as I thought about what to do, 'how did it come to this... I mean seriously how did it come to this...'

"I know you seem to be unsure, but I know you'll change your mind, you are too powerful and the Konoha Hierarchy would soon become paranoid regarding your powers, you'll soon realize that you are alone in this world, and then I'll come to find you once again, offering a purpose, to finally bring peace in the elemental nations..." A swirl erupted from Obito's eye and I tried to link it to his Kamui dimension.

A loading screen appeared in front of me indicating that it would take 12 minutes to synchronize with his dimension before the notification disappeared and both Obito and Zetsu were gone.

'At least Obito's gone... I don't know about Zetsu...' I gulped before moving out of the room, the original chain quest out of my mind as I realized that my simple genin life is about to get a whole lot more complicated than that...
