359. Tentacle Monster

He entered the room and the woman instantly stopped shouting.

"Haha, continue you two. I just came to give little Naruto back to you." He said. The husband and wife got embarrassed by his words.

He walked up to Kushina and tried to hand over Naruto.

"WAAAA"

But Naruto wouldn't leave his arms and held on to his beard. Every time he would try to give him to his mother he would make noise to relay the message that he was uncomfortable.

"It's okay, Naruto. She is your mom. Go to her." He tried to talk to the baby. But Naruto still won't budge. So, he made him fall asleep.

"It seems he got too attached to me," he muttered.

Kushina looked at Naruto in a judging manner to see why he wouldn't return to his own mother.

"Thank you, Lord Sage, for saving her. I owe you everything. Please tell me if I can do something for you." Minato bowed to him.

"Actually, I think you can do something not just for me but also for the village or even the whole world," Alexander replied.

Minato looked at him with a confused face. He was trying to imagine what Alexander was going to ask.

"And how can I do that?" He asked.

"Simple. By letting me become the Hokage. I am going to unite the world and stop all the wars. Bring an era of peace. An era where there are no tailed beasts left to exploit." Alexander claimed.

Kushina and Minato's eyes widened.

"B-But you are not a citizen of Konoha, you can't become the Hokage. Not to mention, you need affirmation from the clan leaders and Daimyo." Minato argued.

"Ah, leave that to me. I don't think anyone would say no to me. I've got enough strength to win over anyone. I am not even counting all the tailed beasts yet. So, you decide what you want to do. If you don't want to do it, it's all right. I'll just go to Sunagakure and become the Kazekage. The Daimyo of Wind country is a good friend of mine." He said shruggingly and started leaving.

"Tell me your decision in a few days, I'll be staying in Konoha till then." He said and left.

Kushina and Minato looked at each other conflictingly.

"What are you going to do?" Kushina asked.

*Sigh*

"I don't know,"

...

Obito's room in the hospital.

He remembered everything now and wanted to see Rin and Kakashi. He didn't have many people he could say he was close to. If he were to count, they could be counted on a single hand. His Grandma, Minato, Rin, and Kakashi.

*Knock Knock*

"Come in," he said.

The door opened and the people he was craving to meet came in. Obito's face grew huge smiles.

Then suddenly Rin ran to him with tears in her eyes and hugged him. "You are alive,"

Obito had somehow matured a lot in recent times. Normally, his face would have turned red with embarrassment right now. But he already understood by now that his love was one-sided and there was no need to be over the top all the time. Seeing her happy and alive was enough.

He patted her back and smiled, "Yeah, it's crazy but somehow, I survived."

Rin then looked at his face. Half of it was twisted in spirals. She didn't feel disgusted and touched his face, "I am sorry if I was a better medical ninja then maybe..."

Obito quickly put his finger on her lips and shook his head, "No, it was not your fault. It was nobody's fault. Let's just be happy that I'm alive and not cry about my face. Don't make me feel bad about it now, you guys."

They finally felt a bit of old Obito's image in him.

Kakashi then stepped closer. He didn't know what to say to Obito.

But it was Obito who spoke first, "I was there when Kiri Shinobi attacked you two. I know what happened. Thankfully, that old man stopped Rin from killing herself."

Rin looked down and didn't say anything in embarrassment. Kakashi, on the other hand, was shocked.

"You were there? Why didn't you come to us then?" Kakashi asked.

Then Obito went on to tell everything that happened to him after he was saved from under the boulder. After hearing his story. Both Rin and Kakashi were shocked. To learn that one of the strongest Shinobi in history was still alive was a shock.

After calming down, Kakashi turned serious, "Obito, I... you can take your eye back."

Obito punched Kakashi in the guts. "Who takes back birthday presents? I am happy with just one, you take care of the other. If you die of old age before me, I'll take it back. Besides, I look cool this way, isn't it right, Rin?"

Kakashi smiled hearing that. It had been a while since he last smiled.

...

Meanwhile, outside, the tailed beasts had mostly healed everyone and now were playing with all the children there. All the adults were confused on what to think about this.

When the beasts were done there, they decided to check patients in each room and treat them. They were too serious in their roleplay as doctors. They finally entered the room of Obito in a neat line.

"Team Bijuu-vengers is here to heal everyone. Oh... look, his face needs healing. Let's go my brothers." Chomei led the entourage.

One by one, they all hopped on to the best.

"So cute," Rin exclaimed seeing the small tailed beasts.

"Lay down, patient." Son Goku ordered Obito.

At the same time, they all gathered around his right arm and the right side of his face.

"Hmm, this looks weird, I've never seen a human body like this. It's like there are two bodies in one." Saiken evaluated.

"Yeah, this guy is very weird," Shukaku added.

Their small talk was funny and made Kakashi and Rin laugh at Obito.

"Hey, you guys. What are you doing here? Go back to your old man." Obito complained and retracted his arm.

"Hey, we are tasked to heal people by our best G-Chan" Chomei scolded him.

Seeing the intense gazes of all the tailed beasts he let them check it again.

While they were checking it they suddenly noticed the arm's texture changing.

"Oh, look. It's moving in weird ways." Kurama pointed.

*POOF*

All of a sudden, Kurama disappeared. They all looked at what happened and saw a small white tentacle coming out of the arm.

Then the Tentacle moved towards the other tailed beasts. One by one they all started disappearing.

"Run my brothers, the tentacle monster is after us," Chomei shouted. Only he could fly and get away easily.

But he looked back and all his siblings were gone. He angrily looked at Obito's arm, "Give my brothers back you monster."

He dived at the tentacle to attack but the next thing he knew,

"Oh no!" he also disappeared.

Kakashi, Obito, and Rin were shocked at what happened. Then they saw the whole white part of Obito's body detaching itself from the body.

Obito was quick to recognize it, "Zetsu"

"Obito, you betrayed Madara-sama. I thought we were friends." Zetsu said in a sorrowful tone.

"Cut it out with this act of yours. You were just using me. I will kill you this time." Obito was enraged.

"Oh, how will you do that? I am the only thing keeping you alive. The moment I go away, you will die." Zetsu threatened.

"I don't care." Obito firmly said.

"So be it," Zetsu started to completely detach himself.

"Are you sure about that?" A voice came from the door.

Everyone looked at it and saw Alexander standing. Zetsu seemed like he was shaken to the core and tried to get away as fast as possible.

"Won't help. I will be keeping you this time and getting all the information necessary out of you." Alexander said and walked forwards.

He pointed his palm at the Zetsu and started motioning like he was squeezing something.

Soon, Zetsu's body started to twist and compress into a ball-like shape. Then Alexander took out a vial and put him in it. "This will be your home from now on."

"Hahaha, you are naive if you think I am the only one. You cut one head and another will take its place." Zetsu crazily laughed.

"Are you feeling the urge to chant 'Hail Hydra' too?" He asked.

"What's that?" Zetsu asked.

Alexander scoffed and put the vial in his pocket. He looked back at Obito who was having trouble breathing as half of his body was gone now.

He walked up to him and poured vials upon vials of medical potions in his mouth. Then he used natural energy and magic to heal him.

In front of their eyes, little by little, Obito's limbs grew back. It was a bit weird when they were in their baby stage though.

By the end of the 20th minute, his body was as good as new.

"There, all healed and back to perfection. Treat this old man to lunch will ya, now I gotta go and see how my potatoes are doing." He said that and disappeared.
