Chapter 44 - 22) Obito's Death

Konoha – Uchiha Clan

Akira slowly opened his eyes and found himself once again lying in the familiar white realm.

The soft glow of the void-like room felt strangely comforting.

"System?"

"Am I dead in the One Piece world?"

Affirmative.

Akira blinked.

"So then… how did I lived? Did I actually find the One Piece?"

You must wait for your Life Level to grow to learn these answers.

He sighed.

"Yeah, yeah. I know. Just curiosity, okay?"

He rubbed his forehead.

"Two Lucky Simulations used… and I don't even know the outcome. System, I'm sad. Can you at least give me a consolation reward?"

Just when he thought the system might say something kind for once—

—he found himself abruptly back in his bedroom in Konoha.

"…Sigh.

Once again I have to wait for new Lucky Simulations."

Feeling defeated, he collapsed back onto his bed and drifted into sleep.

Next Morning

Akira woke early and sat cross-legged, waiting for the daily Simulation.

He had been planning something important:

How to kill Hiruzen without implicating the Uchiha clan—or himself.

He needed multiple Simulations to calculate the safest path.

"System, start Daily Simulation."

Daily Simulation beginning

---

Day 1

You write a letter to Itachi and send it through Kakashi.

---

Day 2

Nothing significant happened today.

You continue attending the Ninja Academy as usual.

---

Day 15

A massive explosion destroyed the Hokage Building.

Chaos spread through the entire village.

Anbu, Roots and ninjas rapidly reached the collapsed site.

---

Day 16

All of Konoha wore mourning clothes.

Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi died in the Hokage office yesterday.

All ANBU stationed in the building also perished.

No one knew the cause.

---

Day 20

Jiraiya returned to the village after hearing the news.

---

Day 21

The Hokage election began.

Uchiha Clan nominated Uchiha Fugaku.

Hyuga Clan withdrew.

All major and minor clans also withdrew.

Civilians and Jōnin hall nominated Jiraiya.

Jiraiya declined and instead recommended Tsunade, promising to find her within nine days.

The clans agreed—

If Tsunade didn't return, the next Hokage will be from the Uchiha Clan, Uchiha Fugaku.

---

Day 31

Jiraiya returned alone, visibly depressed.

Tsunade refused to come.

Fugaku Uchiha becomes the Fifth Hokage, marking him the first Hokage from the Uchiha Clan.

Dove and Hawk factions united and the Uchiha clan became the strongest clan in the world with two Kage level ninjas inside the village and one kage level ninja outside the village though that ninja betrayed the clan.

---

Day 391

Kakashi returned to the village with news of the growing Akatsuki organization with at least five S-rank criminals involved.

---

Day 500

You awakened your two-tomoe Sharingan.

---

Day 1400

You graduate from the Ninja Academy.

Your team is formed with Naruto and Sasuke with Kakashi as the teacher.

Sakura joined another civilian-oriented team.

---

Day 1420

Itachi succeeded Fugaku, becoming the Sixth Hokage at the age of 18—

Becoming the youngest Hokage in history.

---

Day 1450

You are promoted to Chunin at the age of 10.

---

Day 1600

You reached Jonin rank at age 11.

---

Day 1670

While on a mission, you encountered Obito Uchiha and Deidara.

You realized that you're being targeted—

Obito likely does not want another powerhouse rising from the Uchiha Clan, especially when both Fugaku and Itachi are Kage-level on the surface and Mangekyo Sharingan hidden.

---

Day 1671

You escape towards the Cloud's Shinobi Village as Obito and Deidara blocked your way to Konoha.

There you meet the Fourth Raikage and learn it is part of a larger scheme—

other young geniuses of Konoha may be targeted as well.

---

Day 1672

You escape again, severely injured, but awakened the three-tomoe Sharingan.

---

Day 1675

You are surrounded once again by Obito and Deidara.

You know this is Zetsu's doing as he is the number one intelligence gathering person in the ninja world.

Obito tries to recruit you into his plan to gather the Tailed Beasts,

but you know the truth:

A man who killed his own teacher and the woman who treated him as her son—

all for an illusion of revenge—

cannot be trusted.

He would kill you even if you surrendered.

And surrendering to him was pointless.

Madara controlled him through seals.

Obito could do the same.

He would kidnap your family, force betrayal, or use you as a pawn.

You wait as Obito approaches.

Your mind races with contingencies—

But suddenly, your knees hit the ground.

Your chakra collapses.

Obito notices instantly.

He steps forward, placing a kunai against your forehead.

"This is the end."

You can't move.

You can barely breathe.

But your mind remains clear.

And you still have one final technique.

Forbidden.

Suicidal.

But absolute.

As you were getting yourself prepared for death you recalled something you once read:

Moral luck

Moral luck is the idea that a person's morality is shaped by the circumstances they face—

not their inner virtue.

Someone might seem "good" only because life never tested them.

You once read an example:

In 1930s Germany, countless ordinary workers betrayed their Jewish neighbors to the Nazis and sent them to death.

Today they would be called evil.

But if the same people lived in modern Germany, with no such oppression,

they would seem harmless and "good."

So were they evil?

Or simply untested humans placed in a monstrous era?

This thought struck you deeply.

"People are not divided into good and bad.

Many are simply untested.

Their darkness appears only when the world forces it out."

Uchiha Obito fits this perfectly.

He wasn't a good boy who turned evil.

He was never tested—until the day he shattered completely and became a monster.

____

Your lips tremble as you whisper:

"Dust Release…

Detachment of the Primitive World."

A cube of annihilation erupts with you at its center.

Obito didn't even have the chance to activate Kamui or izanagi.

His body disintegrated into microscopic dust scattered into the wind.

Along with him, Deidara also died from the proud jutsu of his teacher.

Both are erased.

Silence.

Ash drifting across the forest.

Your final attack…

has succeeded.

You died.
