Indra Uchiha sat in the dimly lit basement of his home, lost in thought. The weight of his decisions pressed down on him like a heavy fog.
As he contemplated who to revive, names and faces flickered through his mind, each one sparking a new line of reasoning and doubt. The tension in the air matched the turmoil within him.
He first considered Hashirama Senju, the legendary leader of the Senju clan.
A fierce protector and a figure beloved by many, Hashirama had always embraced inclusivity, ensuring the Uchiha clan was not cast aside in the shadows of discrimination.
Indra felt a flicker of hope; Hashirama's presence could undoubtedly help safeguard the Uchiha from the impending threat of genocide.
However, he quickly dismissed the notion. Reviving Hashirama would be akin to handing over control of the village—a risk too great to take.
Indra knew he could not control Hashirama, nor would he want someone with such immense power working independent of his ambitions.
Next, he entertained the idea of Madara Uchiha, famously known as the "Dancing King" of the ninja world.
With Madara's formidable abilities and a potential return of his Rinnegan, Indra reasoned that he could confront any threat against the Uchiha clan.
Yet, a deeper instinct told him that Madara would not align with his goals.
The powerful Uchiha had his own agendas and was not one to be manipulated easily. The thought of Madara potentially joining the Akatsuki only exacerbated Indra's worries.
Accelerating the tailed beasts' capture could lead to chaos, not just for Konoha but for all ninja across the realm.
Indra's mind raced through other candidates. He briefly considered Izuna Uchiha, Madara's brother, who had been strong in his own right, boasting the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Yet, his untimely demise at the hands of Tobirama Senju rendered him an inappropriate choice. Reviving someone who had already met defeat seemed futile, a waste of the precious power Indra sought to harness.
Then Tobirama came to mind, and Indra shook his head vehemently.
Tobirama's notorious persecution of the Uchiha clan was well-known; reviving him would only exacerbate the conflict between their clans further.
Others such as Hatake Sakumo, the father of the famed Copy Ninja Kakashi, and Might Dai, the father of Konoha's "Blue Beast," were also considered and quickly dismissed.
Indra recognized they would similarly offer no support for his ambitions.
Each contemplated figure served to remind him of the obstacles he faced, but no candidate matched his desperate need for someone who could wield power without questioning his motives.
Deep in thought, a sudden stroke of inspiration surged through Indra. A wicked smile crept across his face as he reached for the reincarnation card.
A plan began to form, centered on someone who would not only fit his needs but also satisfy his ambitions creatively.
The air shimmered as he invoked the technique, summoning a blinding light that illuminated the entire basement.
With careful precision, he enacted the powerful ritual, knowing that he was breaking the boundaries set by life and death.
As the light began to fade, a figure emerged from the brilliance, and when the glow dissipated completely, a woman stood before him—her vibrant red hair cascading down her shoulders, framing a face that radiated warmth and strength.
It was none other than Uzumaki Kushina.
Kushina's eyes fluttered open, revealing a look of confusion as she scanned her surroundings.
The new environment was foreign, the walls of the basement uninviting in their simplicity.
Her gaze quickly fixed on Indra, who stood a few feet away, his presence commanding.
Color filled her cheeks as she took in his strikingly handsome features, a gift from the succubus system that had enhanced his charm to an extraordinary level.
"Where am I?" Kushina stammered, her voice soft but filled with curiosity. "I remember…" she trailed off, trying to gather her thoughts. "I was dead, wasn't I?"
Indra's expression hardened momentarily before he replied, "You were, yes. I revived you because I need you." His declaration hung heavily in the air.
Kushina was taken aback, blinking wide-eyed at Indra. "Need me for what?" she asked innocently, tilting her head slightly to the side.
That was when Indra took a step closer, his intentions clear as he leaned forward and pressed his lips against hers.
The kiss was unexpected, catching Kushina completely off guard.
She pushed him away with a mix of surprise and indignation, her voice rising in an aggrieved tone. "You! Why would you kiss me? I'm a married woman! I have a child!"
Indra couldn't help but laugh at her reaction. "What does that have to do with anything?" he countered, the playful glint in his eye no longer concealed. "All I need is your body."
Kushina's cheeks flared with embarrassment, but her spirit shone through her initial shock as she declared with determination that she would make him "pay" for such an affront.
In a rapid motion, she summoned her adamantine chains, a technique reflective of her formidable powers as an Uzumaki.
Indra, however, was unfazed; he activated his Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan with practiced ease and effortlessly countered her chains.
With every flick of his wrist, he proved his superiority in combat, swiftly bringing her to her knees.
Still gripping her chin gently but firmly, Indra locked eyes with her, his expression shifting to a more serious demeanor. "I already revived you," he said, his voice low and compelling.
"You should compensate me,don't you think? After all, shouldn't you be concerned about your son?"
Kushina's eyes widened in realization, the mention of her son igniting a fire of concern within her heart. "What have I done?" she murmured under her breath, her thoughts racing as the memories of her previous life rushed back. "How could I forget about Naruto?"
Indra observed the shift in her demeanor, a glint of amusement flickering in his eyes. "It's been eight years since your death," he replied, allowing a pause to build tension before adding, "You should see it with your own eyes."
In that moment, Indra decided to assist Kushina with a transformation technique.
As he guided her through the process, he watched her body shimmer and morph, adopting a new appearance that would allow her to navigate the streets of Konoha without drawing unwanted attention.
It was essential that she acclimate to the drastic changes that had occurred while she had been gone.
Once completed, they stepped out of the basement together, emerging into the bustling streets of Konoha. Kushina was immediately overwhelmed by the sights and sounds around her.
The village was alive with vibrant colors, the air filled with the laughter of children and the playful chatter of merchants hawking their wares.
Her eyes scanned the familiar yet altered surroundings, noting the impressive buildings that seemed to have sprung up in her absence.
"Indra, this place…it's changed so much!" Kushina exclaimed, a hint of awe lacing her voice as she took in the scene.
Shopkeepers greeted Indra with warm smiles and waves, showcasing the newfound respect he had earned among the villagers.
Kushina's heart swelled with doubts and confusion—when had the Uchiha clan gained such admiration?
"It seems the villagers appreciate my changes," Indra said with a smirk, his tone dripping with pride. "There have been many reforms implemented to lower the crime rate and build a stronger community."
Kushina felt a myriad of emotions wash over her, pride intermingling with disbelief.
She had always known about the tensions between her clan and the Uchihas, but seeing the respect Indra commanded was a far cry from the hatred and fear she had expected.
Indra, being only fifteen, already held the title of Konoha's Guard Captain, a remarkable achievement for someone so young.
The duality of his status was perplexing as Kushina observed him, walking confidently through the streets of Konoha while she quietly followed, taking in every detail of her transformed homeland.
Their journey eventually led them to the Konoha Academy, where the echoes of school bells rang out sharply, signaling the end of the day.
A rush of children poured out of the building, laughter and shouts filling the air as they all excitedly gathered with their parents or friends.
Among the throng, a familiar figure caught Kushina's eye—a boy with blond hair, bright blue eyes, and distinct whisker marks adorning his cheeks.
Recognition struck her like a bolt of lightning as she identified her son, Naruto.
Her heart raced as she moved closer to get a better look. She could feel the powerful pull of maternal instincts overwhelming her senses.
The waves of chakra emanating from Naruto were unmistakably hers, and she felt a surge of happiness flooding her heart as she witnessed him alive and well. "That's… Naruto!" she exclaimed, her voice barely above a whisper, filled with both disbelief and joy.
Indra observed her closely, gauging her reaction with a calculating expression.
The moment seemed charged with anticipation, his interest piquing as he considered how Kushina would process her son's life without her.
Would it be joy or regret?
Indra smiled evilly
