A New World

Obito Uchiha

Obito warped inside the living room of the hideout and he gently placed Naruto's dead body on the floor.

"Oh hey cap- NARUTO-KUN! W-WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!", Fuu yelled, her being the only one in the room, besides a corpse and her captain with a sad look on his face.

"He's dead. But not for long"

"W-what?!", she said her voice trembling.

"You heard me"

"STOP BEING SO CALM! IT'S NARUTO AND HE'S LAYING DEAD ON THE FLOOR! AND YOU'RE-"

"Shut up! Shut up and let me concentrate", Obito said ripping the robe off Naruto, and placed two fingers on Naruto's heart. He closed his eyes and stayed there for a few minutes.

After a few minutes, he lifted his fingers and sat back, "Okay, it worked".

Fuu was crying but still managed to talk, "Can... Can you tell me, what in the fuck happened?".

Obito nodded, "Naruto faked his death".

"W-what?"

"Me and Naruto had a secret mission. That mission was to fake his death. Doing this, would change things drastically. And gladly, it worked"

"H-how did he do that?"

"He prepared seals. Temporary seals, these seals cut off all his chakra reserves including those with Kurama. He only left a small portion of it left in his body. With this portion, he used what was left of Kurama's chakra to intimidate them. But when he did so, he put them under a genjutsu. That genjutsu was supposed to bring out the person's hate towards Naruto. It so happened to be Kakashi. When Kakashi struck him with the lightning blade, the seals automatically absorbed some of the jutsu's chakra leaving Naruto's body still fresh and not dead yet. I had to bring him back here safely in under two minutes, infuse chakra on my fingers and place it on his heart, and wait. All we have to do is wait a couple minutes for his chakra reserves to open up again and for Kurama to heal him"

"S-so-"

"Yes, he's okay. He won't die yet. We know that"

"So this thing with the seals, were made to fake his death?"

"Yes"

"Why would you keep it a secret from the rest of us?"

"You'd be against it, despite the great outcome if it worked"

"True", she said lowering her head and held Naruto's hand.

"He should be up and running in a few minutes, so don't worry too much"

"Why did Naruto need to fake his death?"

"So the Five Great Nations would think we are at a disadvantage for losing our strongest jinchuuriki"

"How would that do us any good?"

"They'd lower their guard a bit. They'll underestimate the other jinchuuriki's abilities as well. They'll think that they have an advantage, when in reality, they're at a disadvantage. And of course, the Five Kage would have to fight Naruto and me"

"Is Naruto-kun strong enough to beat the Five Kage?"

"I believe so. If he doesn't hold back, then he has quite a good chance at beating them, but it'd be hard"

"What do you mean?"

"Knowing him, he'd fight them using just his normal strength, which is already Kage level power. But, he loves to enjoy his fights. And when he gets bored, he kills his opponents. That is, if they're even worth killing. With his normal strength, he can weaken them, but not defeat them. If he uses Kurama Mode, or combines that with Sage, he'd beat them, but still with a bit of difficulty. But, if he uses the gates, combined with Kurama and Sage mode, oh shit will it be a slaughter. Unfortunately, Naruto isn't like that. It's his greatest weakness"
