Naruto: Dream to Immortality

Chapter 207: The Tune...

Title: The Tune...

..

-General POV-

Naruto's body trembles when he feels Yami's dangerous vibe. Yami then looks at Naruto in the eyes. "Next time ask me nicely, and by next time I mean one hour from now."

Naruto seems like he wants to refute this but the look on Yami's eyes promised something bad would happen. So Naruto listens to his instincts and goes outside.

As soon as he does Yami smirks. 'I am not someone who can just let people talk to me like that. I am the Hokage, I need to seem like above everyone else.'

'Anyway sadly I only have around twenty years to stay in power. By then people will be more educated and will see the uselessness of having a Hokage or even a Daimyo. By then njnja will just be turned to soldiers and the Hokage will just be the stronger soldier.' Contemplates Yami, he knows that the control he has over the world will just continue to slip away. Right now is the peak of his political power. He could kill anyone he wants and there would be no public persecution or anything like that. 

'But this isn't the absolute power I want. After all, The God doesn't need the permission of anyone to do anything. He can destroy the world... and the other beings can do nothing but accept their fate. So political power to me is just a tool. I don't even really need it. Power is only absolute when it is Omnipotent and Omnipresent.' Thinks Yami, as his eyes have a glossy look in them. He wonders what he will feel when he sits on that empty 'throne'. He knows that he will never be able to find someone to truly love in this world. Everyone he looks at seems like it will break and wither away as soon as he touches it.

He knows that he can't allow anyone else to be immortal like him. They will betray him with 100% certainty. He doesn't want that, even if he in a way cares for Yoruichi, he can let her go and die without a shock to him. After all, it is just the cycle of life, his first family will die too

He winces a little as he thinks of that. But he takes a deep breath. He understands what he has been and is currently doing. He will kill children and sleep like a baby the next day with no problem. He is selfish, greedy, cruel, hypocritical, lustful, gluttonous and every other sin someone can think of. And he knows that.

'It seems like I will be a little lonely if no WHEN I reach the top.' Thinks Yami, completely confident in himself. He knows that he will be either obliterated from the universe or reach Godhood. These are only two possible alternatives for him. But he has 100% confidence in himself for he can't allow his heart to waver.

He knows that he will either reach his goals in twenty years or he will never reach them. 

.

One hour later Naruto comes in, he has an angry look in his eyes. But this time he speaks with a respectful tone. "Sasuke has been kidnapped. We need to have a team to go and get him back."

Yami just nods his head. "I know, I have already sent Anbu after him. It has been discovered that he has gone with them willingly. If there is a confirmation of this, he will be killed, we can't allow the Uchiha Clan to be revived out of Konoha."

Naruto is shaking in anger at this. "What! How can you say that?"

Yami just looks at him calmly. "You think that just because you open your mouth you will be Hokage? That isn't how the world works Naruto, you will never be Hokage if you support a missing ninja. Konoha already suffered when a weak Hokage was sitting in this chair. Another one and  Konoha might not even survive."

Naruto seems conflicted at this. "But Sasuke is from Konoha. This village should help its ninja."

Yami sighs at this. "As I said, if Sasuke was really kidnapped, we will obviously help him. If he went willingly he will be eliminated."

"B -But.." Stammers Naruto, not knowing what to say.

"But what?" Says Yami as his voice becomes harsher. "By the look on your face you seem to not believe in Sasuke. And seem to know that he went by his own violation. If that is the case then you know what will happen. We can't sacrifice the many for the few, how many Konoha ninja do you think will die if an Uchiha Clan is developed outside of Konoha. It will be in the thousands and all of that blood will be in your hands. A Hokage must make hard decisions like this, not be unsure and stamper around like a headless chicken. As a Hokage it is my responsibility to look out for Konoha, not Sasuke Uchiha."

Naruto seems downcast by this. But Yami's eyes glint in a scheming light as he says. "But I will give you a chance."

"Really?" Asks Naruto with a joyful look on his eyes.

"Yes really." Says Yami, then he takes a scroll and throws it towards Naruto. "This is your mission, bring back Sasuke Uchiha, low difficulty A Rank Mission. If you can do that, Sasuke will only have his chakra pathways destroyed and won't receive the death penalty. If you can't do this, he will be hunted down just like every other missing ninja."

Naruto nods at this and goes outside with a heavy look on his face. Yami on the other hand smirks at this.

-Yami POV-

During my first life, I always wondered how someone like Naruto can exist. But now it makes perfect sense really. He isn't Naruto at all, he is just a child with a mask on his face. And that mask took him over, Naruto acted nice to everyone, he lied to himself and now the lies have become the truth. 

His mask took him over, Naruto used this mask too much and he now IS that mask. People trying to be nice become really nice when the mask takes over. This is the danger of the perfect act. Even I would be tricked by it if I didn't know the truth. 

So in a way the whole "Talk no Jutsu" that naruto gives is simply a lie.

It works in a way like I work, I give people hope due to my power and absolute certainty on what I do, so people like to rely on me. The same is with Naruto, people accept him and hive in his talks due to them all wanting to depend on someone like Naruto, who believes no he KNOWS of a better world. But what they all believe in is all just another giant lie, a lie that they tell to themselves so much until it becomes the truth.

It seems like the crown for the best 'actor' in Konoha goes to Naruto. The child who will never be, someone who can't even be considered a person anymore. He is just simply an ideal of a child. 

I know that Naruto can be dangerous to me in the future but he is also useful. He is someone who isn't wise or smart at all. So in general he is easily controlled. If I can control Naruto I can 

A smirk appears on my face

Let's see how this goes then. I have already put counter measures against something like that. Plus I have Kotoamatsukami and I have used it on multiple people already. I used to be just another scared Inuzuka, who was too afraid for his life but now I  am the man who has this world in his palm, and so the world dances to my tune, just like a monkey.

-General POV-

Naruto immediately goes, chasing after the one who 'kidnapped' Sasuke and he had a dog in his hands. Or more specifically he is currently carrying a ninken that Shiro gave him. This will help him track sasuke easier.

'Wait for me Sasuke, I WILL BRING YOU BACK.'
