What it truly means to be an Uchiha

Chapter 46

New teacher?

Toga was crying her eyes out as she was in Tobirama warm embrace, since just a few moments ago they both thought that they would be losing each other forever.

While still in Tobirama's heartfelt hug Toga looked upwards to him before seeing him give her a happy and genuine smile. He scratched the back of his head before awkwardly stating "It seems like we'll have more time to play father and daughter"

This just caused her to gain a cheerful smile while she closed her eyes and leaned her head into his chest. She nodded her head and in a joyful tone said "I wouldn't have it any other way dad." which just caused Tobirama to smile more as he caressed the top of her head.

They then heard someone cough as if they were trying to gain their attention *Ahem Ahem*. Which caused both of them to turn around towards where the sound originated, only to see a blood-soaked smiling Izuku standing right beside them.

Izuku had finally caught both of their attention. He had a wide smirk plastered on his face before teasingly stating "I really don't want to interrupt the newfound father and daughter moment that you're having, but do you guys care to help me with demolishing this place? So that we can finally go home."

It took them less than 10 minutes to demolish the whole base. After that they used their earth, water and wood style jutsu to cover up the whole area surrounding the base, making it seem like the base never existed to begin with.

When Izuku was about to teleport to the base, he was quickly interrupted by Tobirama. Seeing his confused expression made Tobirama state one thing "We need to make a tiny stop before we can go home." This caused Toga to jump up and down in excitement which just made Izuku even more perplexed, but he just shrugged his shoulders before nodding.

Meanwhile everyone at the house was in full panic. Izuku who'd been comatose for over two months had suddenly vanished about one hour ago, and the problem was that they didn't know where he went.

They looked back at the security footage for safety reasons, and saw Izuku stand up as soon as Itachi left the room. Afterwards they then saw him 'steal' Itachi's robe while mouthing out a sorry to the camera and then teleporting away.

Everyone was maniacally running around the house, when they suddenly heard someone enter through the side entrance. Once near the living room, they saw an exhausted and happy Toga getting carried piggyback style by a smiling Tobirama.

After he'd put her down they heard her say "Thanks dad" before seeing him ruffle her hair while saying "What kind of a father would I be, if I didn't take care of my precious adorable daughter" which caused everyone to smile in awe, while also making Orochimaru snap a few pictures with his phone.

They didn't want to interrupt their sweet moment, so all of them stood in the room next to them while observing their interaction. They were deep in thought, wondering how all of this happened when all of the sudden they saw a blood-soaked Izuku entered behind the two.

However surprising and adorable Toga's and Tobirama's newfound relationship was, it was easily topped by a blood-soaked Izuku who had now a Rinnegan in his left eye.

Madara pinched the bridge of his nose while walking towards them. He then with an unamused facial expression looked at Izuku before stating in an exhausted tone. "How are you already covered in blood? It hasn't even been an hour, since you woke up from your coma."

Izuku just shrugged his shoulders before saying "It's not my fault." causing Madara to groan in annoyance, Izuku then stated "I sensed that Toga was in a lot of pain with the link that Kurama and Matatabi are sharing. Knowing that, I immediately teleported to her since I couldn't wait for you guys."

Madara just crouched down in front of Izuku before hugging him tightly, not even caring that Izuku was covered in blood from top to bottom. With a genuinely happy and caring tone Madara stated.

"When I was still alive I lost everyone I cared about, which made me feel anger towards reality. But then I met you Izuku, you are the one who caused me to discover how it felt to be a father. I love you too much son."

This caused Izuku to tear up as he hugged his father back, making his hands clutch tightly onto Madara's back before sniffling while stating "I *Sniff* I love you *Sniff* dad".

Izuku cried into his dad's shoulder for a while before calming a bit down, his voice then changed to one filled with pain and loneliness as he said with a sniffle "You guys *Sniff* have no idea *Sniff* how much I've missed you all *Sniff*. You guys were the only thing that's helped me keep my sanity for all those months."

What he said caused them all to become confused to which Izuku saw. After calming himself down he told them how he'd been wandering aimlessly around his mindscape for months, how the echoing voice kept pulling him into the darkness, how at one point he gave up, and how he slowly was losing his sanity day in and day out.

All of them had experienced isolation at one point in their life, but the difference between that and his was that if they wanted they could still interact with other living beings, or even go outside and enjoy nature, but Izuku didn't have that. He was literally walking in an endless void, which was constantly trying to make him give up at living and submit into the darkness.

He wanted to lift up their moods, so he told them that he could feel and hear every time they interacted with him, or just were in his presence. He then gave his million watt smile before telling them that he's only alive because of them.

Izuku then asked if he could be excused to take a shower, to which everyone agreed in a laughing manner due to him sitting there covered in dried blood this whole time. After showering he came down to the others only to be met by a hugging toga, which didn't want to let go of him so he just carried her to the library while following the others.

Orochimaru then asked Izuku how much he knew about the Rinnegan, which caused Izuku to remember something. Izuku then told them about meeting Hagoromo, and how he and Hagoromo talked a lot about previous reincarnations of Indra and Asura, which caused Sasuke to sigh in defeat before telling him that he also had that meeting.

After a lengthy talk about what the Rinnegan is and It's possibilities, it had already become midnight. So they all went to bed after deciding to continue Izuku's Rinnegan training in the morning.

When Izuku woke up he felt that his chest was heavy, so he pulled up the bed covers only to see Toga sleeping with her head on top of his chest. Not wanting to wake her up he carefully pulled her to the side before getting out of the bed and getting fully clothed.

On his way down he heard Orochimaru talk to someone who he didn't recognize the voice of. This was weird since in all of time Izuku had been there, he'd only meet the tailed beasts, the animals from the summoning jutsu and the people Orochimaru reanimated.

Judging by the voice he quickly understood that it was a human, which could only mean that Orochimaru had summoned someone else back from the dead. Izuku tried to figure out why his sensei would do it, only to understand that it might be a new teacher for his Rinnegan training.

With that he ran towards the kitchen before opening the door widely. He then looked towards the voice and saw a new reanimated person, not wanting to come off as rude he gave his million watt smile before reaching out his hand while saying "Hello! My name is Izuku Uchiha and it's nice to meet you."

~Author note~

I'm glad that people loved the two last chapters with brutal and badass Izuku, thank you for all your positive feedback and reactions <3 .

I could have done the training time skip in this chapter, but I kind of wanted to see if you guys can guess who Orochimaru revived back from the dead.

I also have an assignment to deliver tomorrow, so sorry for the short chapter. I'll be looking forward to your guesses.
