Chapter 230 - The Prophecy of Uchiha Izumi

You can start over, and if you can't, so what, at least you can just quit. It's just a game, does anyone die if they stop playing?

But he's a different matter. Even though it can reboot, it's a reality. Not a real game, but life itself. Uchiha Yue is a guillotine on the way to the future. If it is not stopped, then a new future will never be achieved.

Never. Forever spinning in this period of time, in an endless cycle, to the very end, to madness.

Just thinking about it made the hairs on his body stand on end.

Fortunately, Uchiha Yue, like him, was a migrant. Uchiha Izumi believed that once he got into that world and found Yue, he would certainly be able to convince him to abandon the destruction of the world and stop his current actions.

Time passed.

Soon, Ootsutsuki Isshiki and the others arrived in this world.

And then the question arose: under what pretext should he go to that world to convince Uchiha Yue?

That was the problem.

The prophecy!

After much thought, watching Ootsutsuki Isshiki's actions, he found the answer.

It is a prophecy. In the first, main world, Isshiki created a monstrous lie about the Child from the prophecy.

The Shinobi world believed this lie without hesitation, and everyone assumed that the Child from the prophecy really existed.

However, he knew that there was no Child from the prophecy. The so-called chosen one was just a vessel for Isshika's resurrection, and the prophecy itself was a fake from the very beginning.

But no one could prove that Ootsutsuki Isshiki was lying.

A lie, set up in a suitable setting, if it looks plausible, makes you instinctively believe in it, even if something doesn't seem right. And then this lie can become the truth.

Then it's not a lie anymore.

In the world where he came from, the greatest lies were the so-called gods and immortals, the underworld. All these wonderful fantasies were essentially a kind of lie. Initially, life was too hard, and therefore a group of people came up with a lie about the afterlife in order to give others spiritual solace. It was a lie for good, it described a beautiful world, and more and more people began to believe in it.

Eventually, this lie became a part of culture and civilization, and at a certain stage people deeply believed in it, considering it to be the truth.

A lie that couldn't be proven, but that everyone wanted to believe—that was what he needed!

- what? Are you saying you have a way to stop Uchiha Yue?

Senju Tobirama looked at Uchiha Izumi standing in front of him with disbelief. His voice rose to a scream, and he couldn't help but get excited.

— That's right. I had a dream. In a few months, this world will be swallowed up by darkness! Uchiha Izumi nodded. "And the only way to save him is for me." Just let me go to that world, find Uchiha Yue and stop him. This is the only way to save the world!

That's his lie. A prophetic dream. But no one could prove that he was lying, that there had been no dream. If he said he was, then he was.

Moreover, these desperate ninjas will instinctively want to believe him. Like a hopeless lover who, even after hearing dubious sounds, will deceive himself and believe any, the most leaky excuses of his goddess.

There were ways to read memory in the Shinobi world, but Uchiha Izumi was sure they wouldn't dare use them on him. He hadn't awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan yet, and they wouldn't take such a step.

Uchiha Yue alone was enough to cause despair. What if, after reading his memory, they accidentally provoke his awakening?

What if there's a new Uchiha Yue? What are they going to do?

Just wait for death!

Besides, he wasn't afraid of anyone finding out about his system. What's the point? He will die, and time will roll back.

Did anyone really think they could change his will and turn it into a tool for rolling back time?

Impossible!

In addition to the usual memories, when time rolled back, all negative effects were erased from it. Even if his mind is controlled, his will is broken, and his memory is altered—none of this will matter.

It was precisely because his safety was absolutely guaranteed and he knew about these people's fear of Sharingan that he dared to come forward and utter such lies.

They'll believe it.

Senju Tobirama was silent.

"Are you serious?" Was our world really destroyed?

The two Ootsutsuki Isshiki stared at Uchiha Izumi with expressions of utter disbelief on their faces. However, seeing his confidence, they began to doubt.

— Yes, I saw everything. Eternal darkness has engulfed this world, everything has disappeared! Uchiha Izumi stated confidently. "Only I, only I, can save this world. Mr. Jigen, I need your help so that I can meet Uchiha Yue. As soon as I see him, I will definitely be able to convince him to stop destroying the world! Then everything will be back to where it started!

Faith does not require proof!

Although, to tell the truth, there were plenty of reasons. Prophecies really existed in the Shinobi world, and besides, what was the point of Uchiha Izumi lying?

Anyone understood the danger of traveling to the main world. Has no one seen Uchiha Yue? Sarutobi Hiruzen, Nagato from the main world, they all saw him. And what is the result?

They almost died. And now someone is coming out and claiming that by standing in front of Uchiha Yue, they can convince him to stop destroying the world.

If he really doesn't have a way, isn't he playing with his own life, isn't he looking for death?

This Uchiha Izumi didn't look like a madman.

That's why they believed. They believed in the prophecy of this Uchiha Izumi. It was necessary to check whether this was true or false.

It's not like any of them are going to die. This Uchiha Izumi volunteered himself, no one forced him.

And if he succeeds, he will become their hero. They began to create equipment — equipment that would allow Uchiha Izumi to meet Uchiha Yue.

Senju Tobirama and others have already created similar equipment before. Even an Absolute Demonic Mecha could get to Uchiha Yue, it just didn't make sense before.

Throw all your strength just to get close to the enemy? To fight? That would be suicide!

With the current technology of the Shinobi world, it wasn't difficult to create a set of equipment that was even more powerful, durable, and effective against Uchiha Yue's energy absorption.

And so…
