Indra Otsusuki

"I am Indra Otsusuki , your ancestor. And you are my reincarnation" Said Indra.

"My ancestor? Reincarnation? Are you an Uchiha?" asked Sasuke confused.

"I'm not an Uchiha, my descendants formed the Uchiha clan. About reincarnation means that you are me, meaning my soul reincarnated in your body" Indra said.

Sasuke looked at him confused and said "If you are me, how come you are talking to me now, where am I?"

"You are in your mental landscape. I mean, we are in your mind" Explained Indra when he was interrupted.

"Why is my mind so empty and dark?" asked Sasuke.

Indra looked at him and said "Your mental landscape wasn't like that, it used to be a surreal place worthy of a young and imaginative mind, everything was full of colors and joy. But something happened, someone tried to corrupt your soul and everything became dark and lifeless.

When that person tried to corrupt your soul it awakened my consciousness which was asleep," said Indra.

"I don't understand, how is it that you are me?" asked Sasuke.

"To explain this to you I must tell you my story. I am Indra Otsusuki elder son of Hagoromo Otsusuki and elder brother of Ashura Otsusuki.

In my childhood I was a cheerful person, just like you, I loved my father and my brother, and so I grew up until I met a mysterious person.

That person was kind at first he always praised me and praised me saying that I was an unparalleled genius much better than my brother and that one day I would surpass my father. The first few times he said that, I didn't mind too much, but over time those words made my ego grow and corrupted my mind.

I thought I was the best in the world and no one was worthy of my presence. One day my father summoned me and my brother, and told us that one of us would be his successor, I was indignant saying that I should be the successor for being the eldest and for being much more talented with chakra than my brother. But my father still made us go through a test to decide who would be his successor.

We took our tests and went back to our home, when the time came my father decided to choose my brother as his successor. I was furious to learn that my brother would be my father's successor and left the room followed by my followers.

I went to a cave and killed my followers to gain more power and evolve my sharingan.

After that I attacked my father's village and fought against my brother, but I lost. Losing to my brother only made my hatred increase even more, so I left the village.

After that I always fought my brother again and always lost. One day my father was on his deathbed and I went to talk to him. I promised him that I was going to reincarnate eternally to destroy my brother's clan and my father's ninshu. I guess Ashura has done the same to stop me" Said Indra.

Sasuke was saddened to hear Indra's story, he knew deep down Indra wasn't a bad person, but that doesn't take away all the evil he has caused.

"So if I am a reincarnation of you that means I will have to follow in your footsteps and try to destroy the world and fight Ashura's reincarnation. why is the world just endless sadness and sorrow, why can't we all live peacefully?" Sasuke asked

"When I woke up after they corrupted your soul, my first choice was to take your body so I could achieve my goal, but before long many memories invaded my mind. Memories of all my reincarnations.

Throughout these thousand years I have reincarnated ten times, most of them died in childhood, others were consumed by their hatred and were killed by their own family, some managed to grow up and fight against Ashura's reincarnation but due to their low talent they died quickly. Only one reincarnation managed to come close to me in talent and that was Madara Uchiha. Madara lived a life different from mine, while I lived in a peaceful world Madara lived in a world of war and desolation that I had created. Madara was a cheerful boy like you and longed for peace, and to live a happy life with his family. But, that did not happen, with the passing of time in the many wars he lost his brother and that made him prey to the curse of hatred, a curse that plagues all Uchiha created by me the day I awakened those eyes.

From the day of his brother's death Madara went dark, as did all my reincarnations and his fate would be no different than the others. He was killed by the Ashura of his generation Hashirama Senju.

And now there is you, I also saw your memories. Your relationship with your Ashura is very good, although I have to say that this reincarnation of Ashura is too strange. He has a monstrous talent, something that is not normal for a reincarnation of Ashura at a young age. It is even more abnormal than Hashirama senju. If you follow my path you will be erased instantly" Indra said.

Sasuke shuddered when he heard that Indra wanted to take over his body, then he was saddened to hear the stories of the other reincarnations and was astonished to hear that the legendary Madara Uchiha and Hashirama were reincarnations of Indra and Ashura. When he heard the ramblings about the Ashura of his generation Sasuke became thoughtful.

'Who is the reincarnation of Ashura today, do I know him, do I have a good relationship with him' Sasuke thought. 'Who is the Ashura of my generation?" asked Sasuke.

Indra who was thinking about the anomaly that is Naruto replied "I won't tell you, though if you think a little you will know who is he" Indra said.

Sasuke was a little frustrated that he didn't know who Ashura's reincarnation was

"As I was saying, when I saw the memories of my reincarnations I decided to finally put an end to this meaningless hatred, I will no longer reincarnate my soul eternally" Said Indra

Sasuke was surprised to hear Indra's words "Are you serious?"

"Yes, all this hatred is meaningless now, I don't want another one of my reincarnations to go through the same hatred again. Although that will depend entirely on you, I hope you won't follow in my steps nor those of my other reincarnations" Said Indra

Sasuke nodded at Indra's words.

Indra smiled as she saw Sasuke nod.

"Now let us talk about what has happened to you and what has caused my consciousness to awaken. A vile man has branded you with a strange seal, one that will attempt to corrupt the soul and cause you to enter into a relentless search for power," Indra said.

Sasuke began to sweat when he heard Indra's words.

"But what he didn't know was that you are one of my reincarnations and trying to corrupt your soul woke me up and I managed to stop it. I am going to offer you three choices.

One, I leave the seal, just as it is and do not remove that man's influence on you.

Two, I completely remove the seal from your body and leave you the same as before.

Three, I remove that man's consciousness from the seal leaving only the seal which will be a great power for you in the future" Said Indra.

Sasuke became thoughtful about which option to take 'The first option is discarded, I don't want that monster to influence my mind. Which option to take? The second one is good, but the third one seems better' thought Sasuke. "What can the seal do if I choose option three?" asked Sasuke.

Indra looked at him and said "I don't know, I don't know much about fuinjutsu only my brother and father were good at it. But, from what I have been able to analyze so far and from what the snake man said the seal will enhance your Natural talent and improve your body's chakra production. It will also increase your chakra power, plus you will be able to access Natural chakra when using the seal, which will give you a sage mode. That's all I know of the powers the seal will give you, but as far as I can see there may be more abilities, but those you'll have to discover on your own" Indra explained.

Sasuke marveled at hearing all that the seal can do. 'Just wait Naruto, Itachi-nii, I'll catch up with you soon' Sasuke thought.

'I choose the third option. I'll keep the seal, but I don't want that man to be able to influence my mind" Said Sasuke with a smile.

" OK, when you wake up it will be all done. But there is something else I would like to give you. I will remove the curse of hatred from your eyes, neither you nor your descendants will suffer from this curse. Furthermore, neither you nor your descendants will need emotional trauma to awaken your Sharingan, all you will need is training and talent," Indra said.

Sasuke was speechless when he heard what Indra had said "Thank you Oji-chan" Sasuke said as he hugged Indra who didn't know how to react, but smiled warmly.

Suddenly Sasuke started to fade away

"Hey, what's happening to me ji-chan?" Sasuke asked.

Indra looked at him and said "You're waking up."

Sasuke was about to complain because he wanted to spend more time with Indra, but Indra interrupted him

There is something to tell you Sasuke, the time you have been here I have protected your mind from the trauma you have received by suffering all that pain both in your body and in your soul. Once you wake up all that trauma will hit you at once. I hope you will be able to endure it and not become corrupted. Be strong little one," Indra said.

Sasuke nodded at Indra's words "It was good to meet you ji-chan" Sasuke said with a smile as he disappeared from his mental passage.
