Kabuto smiled as he finished his preparations.
Tsuyu Uzumaki…!
Inheriting Orochimaru's will, he had wanted to take over Tsuyu's body. But she was already dead. So he could only let go. Maybe, in Infinite Tsukiyomi he would find his true purpose of his own.
Kabuto wanted to rob some more graves through her help of Flying Raijin, and that Tsuyu had a lot of secrets.
A coffin stood in front of him, containing white zetsu with seals containing Tsuyu's cells.
He made hand seals and activated the jutsu.
Edo Tensei!
…
?
Edo Tensei!
…
His chakra was wasted, nothing happened. Did I make some mistakes?
He did the hand seals more slowly, focusing hard.
Edo Tensei!
…
Why? Did Naruto seal your soul in some way?
…
Or are you… alive?
Kabuto frowned. He needed to tell Obito. Tsuyu potentially being alive was very dangerous. But…
Kabuto felt happy that Tsuyu was out there. Because he would want her body. But then he frowned. The Infinite Tsukiyomi...
…
Kabuto looked a little empty. If he had Tsuyu's body, he always wonder what then. It's as if he would lost his purpose. Because he already knew what it felt like, after Tsuyu's death.
Maybe... I will find my real dream. My real purpose…
***
"Alive…" Obito squinted his eyes. His expression hardened. He couldn't afford the risk.
But he felt it was unreasonable because Naruto was out there, being tracked by Zetsu all the time and there's no sign of Tsuyu. She wouldn't just let him be right?
Obito believed Tsuyu was sealed more likely, perhaps because Naruto couldn't kill her so he only sealed her in some way.
But that meant she might be released…
I don't have enough power…
Obito closed his eyes… his memory returned to Team Minato.
Kakashi… I gave you my eye, letting you carry the part of Obito… but I cannot have my plan risked…
Obito disappeared into Kamui.
Kakashi was in Konoha, in front of the memorial.
Rin… Obito… Sensei…
He placed the flowers down. All of a sudden, he felt a presence behind him.
"Who…?"
As he turned. A hand stretched out at fast speed, gouging his Sharingan out.
"Ah…!" Kakashi used Chidori and slashed at a man in a mask, but it simply passed through.
"Who are you!?"
Obito remained silent… He looked at Kakashi with his eyes, then at the grave.
You never moved on… Kakashi… don't worry. I would give us all a perfect world.
Obito simply fled with Kamui.
After the news spread Danzo quickly punished and really fired everyone in the barrier team. He was so done with their incompetence he really just threw the barrier entirely and created a new one and everyone in the village had to re-input their chakra signature and re-confirm with the previous chakra signature from the last barrier.

The Solar Eclipse was nearing. Chimera Technique can be done.
And once I achieve the body of God, I would launch a war against all nations to separate their forces. I would need time for the jutsu to activate since I only would have 7 tailed beasts, and the largest 8th and 9th were dead or missing.
A few months passed, and the world that had once reached an Utopia of peace from Her rule was dismantled.
Shinobi turned to conflict for their work. People couldn't understand each other.
This is the cruel reality. Peace can never be achieved on their own. You need someone to hold a leash on them. Only a dream can a perfect world exist… and I will make that dream all of reality… Rin.
Obito looked up at the sky as the sun was partially covered.
He lay down on the altar. He planted his extra Sharingan into Madara's old corpse, hopefully he would integrate it too. A pile of Hashirama cells and a Zetsu body. Lump of flesh of Gedo Mazo. Captured living shinobi with various Kekkei Genkai. Shikotsumyaku, Hyuga clan member, Ice Release, Storm Release, Steel Release, Dark Release, Swift Release, Crystal Release, Scorch Release - all trying to achieve the state of Kekkei Mora.
Kabuto had told him about his theory on Hashirama and Madara… descendant of Sage of 6 Path. To face a potential enemy of Tsuyu, he had to become God capable of fighting her. He was going to return to the origin of his ancestor, the strongest God through Chimera technique!
Hagoromo felt scared seeing the ritual was about to be completed without anyone interfering. He wanted to appear to call Tsuyu, but if he did, he wouldn't be able to appear again for a long time. He was afraid Kaguya would still be revived and he wanted to wait only for that moment.
No… they would stop him. Hagoromo hesitated and let Obito be.
The sky turned dark as the Solar Eclipse happened.
Tsuyu looked up, across the gold barrier hiding her existence.
A natural phenomenon that occurred only once every tens of years. A rare sight. Maybe I could gain inspiration for a new technique.
The sunglasses were made from Creation of All Things as she appreciated the sight of nature leisurely with a warm gourmet coffee in her hand.
Hagoromo would have a stroke if he saw Tsuyu so relaxed and at peace even when the Shinobi World was facing a crisis.
***
Obito laughed madly as the purple jelly-like substance devoured all the flesh, living shinobi and corpses.
Just like how Otsutsuki create chakra fruit containing a dense mixture of chakra and DNA of living organisms, Chimera technique touches its essence.
"I WILL BECOME GOD!"
The solar eclipse reached its climax. The purple blob digested all materials, all genetic data and existing chakra inside of them. The natural energy from the Solar Eclipse, from the volcano, gathered like a tide around Obito.
The earth rumbled as an aurora, a representation of the vast natural energy that appeared above the sky of the Land of Iron.
Chimera Technique! Devour!
The purple blob containing genetic data and chakra devoured Obito, letting him be baptised and his flesh changed. His Rinnegan activated to its maximum potential, drawing in as much natural energy as possible, keeping the balance of chakra, the DNA, and the natural energy in a balanced state. The aurora flickered as all the natural energy was directed into him!
AHHH! Obito screamed as his genetics were transformed. His Rinnegan flared. The purple blob turned into a cocoon resembling wood wrapping Obito completely.
The Cocoon was as if alive.
Badump… badump… As if a heart that was beating, Obito was undergoing transformation.
***
Tsuyu took off her sunglasses, looking at the Solar Eclipse with a little doubt.
Why does natural energy around the air seem to be siphoned into a certain direction? Eh. Whatever.
She put the sunglasses back on, maybe it was just an unknown natural phenomenon she didn't know.
***
A day passed, and no one in the Shinobi World noticed.
The Cocoon of wood withered slowly. Crack, crack.
A white flawless hand stretched out from it, breaking them completely. Obito's figure appeared, his entire body pale white, his hair as well, though slightly longer. His pair of Sharingan remained. In his forehead, a slit opened, revealing a purple Rinnegan.
He took a breath in, the brimming power.
The power of God…
My body feels powerful.
Obito moved his hands. Ice release! A glacier was created tens of meters around him. The constant natural energy going into him was akin to Hashirama in Sage Mode. His body contained chakra as if he was a Bijuu.
He looked down on his body, feeling a little heavy.
SO BIG!?
Cough… Godbito blushed slightly. He didn't expect not just his power and chakra to grow. But also something else. He took the robe, covering his bare body. His eyes turned cold.
This world shall have peace…
With both Kamui in his eyes, he activated partial majestic Perfect Susanoo, creating a pair of blue wings of Susanoo.
This World bore a new God. I will bring all Dreams into Reality!
Kamui! Godbito disappeared through Kamui, and reappeared right above Konoha. His blue wings spread out, radiant blue light spread out as he blocked the sun.
As if a new God descending.
The people of Konoha trembled. Danzo looked up in shock and worry. Sasuke looked up in the sky, his mangekyo flickered.
Tsuyu…! Konoha needed you! Danzo was panicking. He had no way to contact her!
"This World was filled with despair and hopelessness… I would end it all. And give salvation to all. The Purge, the 5th Shinobi War… will cleanse the filth from this Earth!"
Godbito clasped his hands, awakening the tens of thousands of Zetsu all over the lands. Kabuto received the signal, make hand seals.
Edo Tensei! Coffins appeared from the ground, summoned one by one.
***
Orochimaru was humming as he was researching white zetsu, when suddenly as if it was awakened it went crazy.
Orochimaru frowned and slapped its face with his hand.
Seal!
He looked at the Zetsu struggling. And noticed all Zetsu samples in cages and bindings were all the same.
Their chakra running amok… what's happening…
Orochimaru frowned. But he took the sample and quickly ran it through the latest machineries Danzo sponsored him with. He looked at the surveillance of the outside world, his eyes widened seeing someone on top of Konoha with Blue Wings acting like God. How many people have been acting like Gods recently.
Orochimaru decided to go out to see what's really happening. He didn't want his peace and research disturbed.
