Uchiha Setsuna was an ardent admirer of Uchiha Madara; he became incredibly excited the moment he saw Uchiha Madara.
He felt as if a dream had come true.
Now, hearing Uchiha Madara say he would entrust him with a mission and give him everything, Uchiha Setsuna became extremely excited.
Uchiha Setsuna suppressed his inner excitement and asked, "Lord Madara, what do you want me to do?"
"Sever the causality of the world."
"Huh?"
Uchiha Setsuna stared at Uchiha Madara, dumbfounded.
He wanted him to sever the causality of the world? How abstract is that?
How does one sever the causality of the world?
Uchiha Madara sat back down and said to Uchiha Setsuna, "Don't rush, I will tell you everything. I want to create a world where there are only victors, only peace, only love, a world where only these things exist.
This world is filled with regrets, many things don't go as one wishes, just like you. You hoped the Uchiha Clan would become the rulers of Konoha, but your arm was severed by Senju Tobirama, and you were imprisoned in Konoha's jail day after day.
Yet, what's even more ironic is that the Ninja guarding the prison are Uchiha Ninja; they don't see you as a hero, but rather, like those ignorant villagers, they see you as a rebel.
Perhaps you had selfish motives in doing all this, but who doesn't have selfish motives? You did all this for the Uchiha Clan, yet no one understands you. It's truly tragic..."
Uchiha Setsuna's eyes suddenly reddened.
He felt that Uchiha Madara truly understood him.
Indeed, he had a part of selfish desire in wanting to reclaim sovereignty from the Senju Clan, to live a better life, to be respected, to be loved.
But more than that, he hoped the Uchiha Clan could stand at the pinnacle of Konoha, able to suppress the Senju Clan, who had always held them down.
However, after he failed and was imprisoned, his clansmen, let alone understanding him, not even one person came to visit him.
Uchiha Setsuna's heart was also filled with grief and indignation.
Uchiha Madara continued, "But creating this world where there are only victors, only peace, only love, a world where only these things exist, is impossible in the real world, because all regrets have already occurred and cannot be erased.
Therefore, to create this world, it can only be done in a dream world. In a dream, you can mend regrets, you can obtain everything you desire, you are the master of everything!"
Hearing Uchiha Madara speak of that dream world where regrets could be mended and everything could be mastered, Uchiha Setsuna was greatly moved.
Uchiha Setsuna asked, "Then... what should I do, Lord Madara?"
Uchiha Madara beckoned to Uchiha Setsuna.
Uchiha Setsuna eagerly scurried to Uchiha Madara's front and squatted down.
Uchiha Madara reached out and pressed down on Uchiha Setsuna's head: "Because my Sharingan is already blind, I'll borrow your Sharingan..."
Uchiha Madara did not pluck out Uchiha Setsuna's Sharingan, but rather connected with Uchiha Setsuna through the power of the Demonic Statue, then used genjutsu, and at the same time, cast a sealing spell in his heart.
Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Setsuna arrived in a pure white space.
"This is my genjutsu space. Although it's still a blank slate, I can create and control everything by projecting my will. As long as I connect to the Demonic Statue and borrow its power, I can do anything, no matter how big or small, like this."
Uchiha Madara transformed from his aged appearance to his youthful appearance, and both of his eyes were Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
Uchiha Setsuna looked at Uchiha Madara in surprise, his idol was so handsome when he was young!
"Use genjutsu to create the most ideal world, and then just apply genjutsu to all of humanity and bring them in. Use the moon instead of the Sharingan to expand the scale of this jutsu, and you can create the dream world."
Uchiha Setsuna felt that this was no longer a matter of difficulty; he asked in a troubled tone, "Can this be done?"
A stone tablet appeared before Uchiha Setsuna, and Uchiha Madara replied, "To explain, we must first start with the Six Paths Sage and the Ten-Tails. To you, the Ten-Tails is a myth, but myths have their factual basis.
The Tailed Beasts scattered across the world were formed from the Ten-Tails' power, which was split by the Six Paths Sage.
After I obtained Hashirama cells, I transplanted it onto my wound. At first, nothing happened, until just before my death, I awakened the Rinnegan.
But at the same time, a certain seal was also broken. I learned to summon something, summoning the Ten-Tails' shell from the sealed stone. I called it the Gedo Statue.
And that sealed stone is what people call the moon.
After that, I immediately used the Demonic Statue's body as a medium to cultivate Hashirama cells with it..."
A giant flower pistil appeared before Uchiha Setsuna.
On the stem of the pistil, there were people hanging, identical to the white figures he had seen in the cave.
Uchiha Setsuna was almost dumbfounded by what he was hearing, feeling as if he was listening to a story.
Uchiha Madara pointed at a White Zetsu and said, "In other words, these artificial humans can be considered copies of Hashirama, although they are quite degraded.
Without both Uchiha and Senju powers, one cannot awaken the Rinnegan, let alone control the Gedo Statue. Later, when your left arm is fitted with a White Zetsu arm, an artificial human arm, this arm contains Senju cells, so even without awakening the Rinnegan, you should be able to control the Demonic Statue."
Uchiha Madara dispelled the genjutsu.
Uchiha Madara said to Uchiha Setsuna, "Setsuna, I will teach you the forbidden jutsu of the Uchiha, the Six Paths Sage's jutsu, and the Yin-Yang Release jutsu, and also him..."
Uchiha Madara looked at Black Zetsu, who was standing by the side: "The black part of that White Zetsu is the embodiment of my will. You can consider half of it to be me. This is also a degraded product. You can use these guys, created with Yin-Yang Release, as your pawns."
Black Zetsu gasped roughly. What 'degraded product'? He was a higher life form!
A black rod covered in sharp spikes emerged from the tree trunk: "That black rod is the physical manifestation of my consciousness. You can use it when employing the Six Paths Sage's jutsu."
"Alright, Black Zetsu can tell you the rest..."
The tubes behind Uchiha Madara broke, and Uchiha Madara instantly became incredibly weak, looking as if he was about to pass away.
"Alright, go. During this period before my revival, you shall walk the Ninja World in my name, Setsuna. You are now the savior..."
Uchiha Madara breathed his last.
Uchiha Setsuna looked at Uchiha Madara's corpse, his heart filled with a profound sense of mission.
He was now Uchiha Madara! And he, from now on, would act as the savior to rescue this Ninja World!
Uchiha Setsuna solemnly said, "Lord Madara, I, Uchiha Madara, will definitely achieve it! I will definitely fulfill your long-cherished wish!"
Black Zetsu looked at Uchiha Setsuna with a strange expression. This guy accepted his change in identity remarkably quickly.
