Chapter 76 - ch. 75 Haunted Past

Looking at his sisters blade moving effortlessly in the air, Chiba let out a melancholy smile.

She was already a phenomenal swordwoman, all it took was a couple of tips from Chiba and her swordsmanship evolved greatly. He secretly hoped it would've taken longer, he wanted an excuse to spend more time with his sister.

Chiba was proud of how strong she'd grown without him but couldn't help but feel bitter at not being able to see her growth firsthand. He could only smile bitterly about all the time he wasted, all the moments he missed with her.

Not wanting to interrupt her training, he walked away taking out a notebook and crossed off a task on his list.

[Train Koizumi ✔️

Rebuild chakra network

Speak with Kushina

Become Genbu's Jinchuriki

Conquer land of lightning

Go to the Sand Village and help

Go to the Mist for Koizumi revenge

Visit Itachi in Land of medicine

Stop the Akatsuki

Stop black and white zetsu

Go to Rock village

Unite the planet]

If others saw this list they would think Chiba was a delusional child, he wrote about conquering whole villages like it was a breeze. The thing was, it really would be a breeze for Chiba.

With just his Conquerors Haki alone all Chunin and below Ninja would be knocked unconscious leaving just a few Jonin to deal with.

Outside of the Otsutsuki, Chiba didnt worry about anything in this world, he only feared that another 'Invader' might appear to try and kill him.

He still desperately wanted to know what that was about, and for his questions to be answered, the system said he had to "conquer this worlds Challenge."

So he wrote a list on what he thought this worlds challenges were. He wanted to finish the list quickly so that his System can finally tell him about what "Tournament" he's in and what hes a "Candidate" for.

Chiba had already mapped out the most efficient path to cross off the list, after rebuilding his chakra network he'll immediately ask Kushina about the four corners seal and about how to become the Jinchuriki of the massive turtle island Genbu.

Sealing the Lightning Village's guardian animal inside of himself will obviously incur their wrath, so after defeating the Raikage, he might as well conquer them.

Chiba had supreme might compared to any other ninja, and with that might he planned on turning this planet into a utopia by force.

'Multiple people wish for peace in this world, they all tried different methods and they all failed. Hashirama wanted peace so he distributed the tailed beasts to the other villages as peace offerings, those tailed beast were just turned into weapons to wage a bloodier war.' Chiba looked at his calloused hands and gripped them tightly.

'Pain wished to use fear and misery to bring peace, Madara and Obito wished to use Genjutsu to bring about peace. They relied on these methods because they simply werent strong enough to bring about peace without death.'

Chiba knew that using dead bodies as the foundation for peace was impossible, if he truly wanted to create am era of peace he had to do it without bloodshed. And In order to build that utopia witho7t any death, he'd need overwhelming strength!

Sitting down in the middle of the park, Chiba felt the light breeze against his skin and grass on his hands, the enticing smell of the food market not far away filled his nostrils and the sound of laughter and birds chirping flowed into his ears.

These common day noises and sensations were beautiful to Chiba, he had long forgotten all of these everyday things inside of his sterile simulated world.

Crossing his legs and closing his eyes, Chiba tuned out all noise and sensations as he almost immediately entered a deep meditation. His Biokenisis was working 24/7 since waking up from the coma, it was only after all that time that he finally felt his Chakra network was complete!

With all of his chakra pathways finally rebuilt, Chiba now began to connect and intertwine them into the major tenketsu point in his stomach.

As the last of his pathways connected to his tenketsu point and completed the circuit around his body, Chiba began to feel the warmth spreading throughout his body!

The new pathways were sloppy and terribly inefficient, it was worst than a civilians but it would be fixed in just a moment.

As he felt the slightest amount of Chakra return to him, Chiba unsealed the storage scroll that housed Samehada. Using his blood that was still controlling it, he forced the blade to pour chakra into himself and fill up his sloppy network with chakra.

While he had less chakra than a genin, it would be enough! Using the tiny amount of chakra he activated his observation haki and began to use his Biokenisis to its full potential!

Previously rebuilding his chakra network was like a trying to do a solo open heart surgery in the darkness with only a candle, now it was like the worlds finest doctors all got together to remove a wart with every tool in the world at their disposal!

Now that he could "see" his chakra networks, Chiba began to heal fix them at an insane rate, he was losing chakra rapidly but Samehada was also feeding him chakra rapidly. It took Chiba all of 30 minutes before he not only fixed his chakra pathways, but made them more efficient than before the coma!

Opening his eyes chiba unleashed a level of chakra he never thought he'd attain naturally, he easily surpassed most Kage ninja in chakra capacity with just Hashirama probably beating him out.

Looking down at the shriveled up Samehada, Chiba picked it up gently.

"You played a major part in saving the leaf and drastically sped up my recovery process, for that I'll start taking it easy on you." Chiba felt the blade anger dissipate slightly before he sealed it once again.

Crossing off another task on his to-do list, he began walking over his Fuinjutsu masters house.

Like instinct, Chiba activated his observation haki only to realized his eyes had once again become obsolete.

"I guess I dont really need my eyes anymore." The 360° vision granted by his observation haki stretched into space and allowed him to see even the tiniest bug underground, Chiba took out a piece of black fabric and was about to cover his eyes when he stopped.

"Now that ive recovered my chakra and regenerated my original eyes, i could probably awaken my sharingan..."

Having already attained an overwhelming amount of strength, the benefits of the Mangekyou Sharingan didnt attract him all that much but he was curious about what abilities he'd get.

Without much thought he began using Biokenisis on his brain, Chiba flooded himself with Cortisol and epinephrine while depriving his body of serotonin and Dopamine. Overwhelming anxiety and fear overcame him.

1 Tomoe. 2 Tomoe. 3 Tomoe...

Feeling that this was the limits from the physical body alone, Chiba knew he needed an extra kick if he wanted to awaken his Mangekyou.

Pushing past the panic attack he inflicted upon himself, Chiba had to focus mentally. He began recalling his centuries of solitude in his simulated space.

Opening up the darkest recessing of his mind, the chakra unique to the Uchiha flared out of his brain and poured into his eyes like a broken faucet!

Suddenly the 3 tomoes began to sping together so fast they created a black circle! The black circle began to move and changed until lines began to connect into the shape of a star, revealing a pentagram!

Chiba collapsed to his knees, he didnt care about the newly awakened Mangekyou Sharingan as the Memories he locked away were now flooding his mind.

It was only because of deep meditation that allowed him to lock those memories away, that's how Chiba kept himself sane all that time. His careless act of trying to awaken his sharingan had removed those mental barriers and now he was forced to deal with his memories!
