Naruto: The Way of the Great Lord
Chapter 21 Difficult Choices

The lightning that would wipe the Hidden Village on the Leaves from the world stopped.

"Master has brought the Warden into his world! Warden says hello to Mister!" A little creature that looked like Me But, a Negative version similar to the old picture movie appeared before me.

"Slip? Whoareyou? and what's going on?" I was confused and completely frightened by the things in front of me.

"Warden is a manifestation of Master's fear, and Master has used the Mangekyo Sharingan!" The warden applauded me and praised me for my outstanding performance. Strange, but happy to know my Mangekyo is so strong.

"Can you explain to me my Mangekyo strength to my Warden?"

"But of course Master!" Warden bowed gracefully then began his explanation, "Your MS has the ability to bend and control Time with your right eye, and Space with your left eye. You have just used your right eye to stop the attack your father launched with blind anger. But, The sad part is your father is much stronger than you so the cost of quitting is your years, not the Chakra."The words Warden spoke were like cold water running down my head. My liv. This was my second chance, but it was shortened before I could even begin my plan.

"How many years?" I am worried and afraid this is my life we are talking about.

"20 years! But don't Worry Master When you open the first gate, your life span will be extended! However it is not recommended to use this continuously on opponents who are beyond your current strength." Warden said this while looking at his Master with a worried and respectful face. If his Master died, he too died and would no longer have the ability to play with the Trinkets that Master had given him.

Ichizo shook his head and understood the cost of using such a powerful jutsu. If used carelessly this justu can end it, it is truly a double-edged sword.

"And what about controlling space?"

"You can direct the jutsu to any area in your view at the expense of extreme amounts of chakra depending on the jutsu and the strength level of the caster. Similar to controlling Time if an enemy is above your level, your lifespan will be used as a supplying force." Two powerful double-edged swords could kill him if used carelessly. For the time being.

"What do we do about this?" Ichizo turned around and pointed to Lightning a few inches away from the impact.

"So that's how it works." Ichizo looks around to find his father. When he did, he was shocked by the anger on the man's face, He's as red as a Tomato. I looked at him and asked him to melt.

"NOW...YES? Ichizo?" The anger on his face disappeared as he looked at his son's face. 'Mangai!' He stared at the eyes that were as if they contained the Solar System, 9 'Planets' revolving around the 'Sun' in his eyes.

"Dad....I can understand your anger but you almost killed all of us, I think my eyes have proved it enough." Ichizo said this calmly to his father and watched as his heart filled with guilt.

"I...." No words could come out of Fugaku's mouth the regret that controlled his consciousness. He looked oppressed and sadness filled his young-looking face."I want you to get rid of Jutsu because I can't." He turned around and walked back towards the Grand Lightning that came out of the sky. Fugaku followed slowly behind while regretting his actions.

Ichizo walked to the entrance of the courtyard and sat down while looking at his father standing under the Lightning.he then asked "You Ready?" his father just nodded his head still very agitated with his actions.

Time Continued and just before the lightning would strike Fugaku waved his hand as if driving away the flies. The Lightning and Dark Clouds disappeared without a trace.

"Orochimaru you're lucky my son needs you or I'll erase you from your existence." Fugaku said so then carried a chair from the house to the courtyard and sat in a corner to ignore the conversation between his son and Orochimaru. Also, keep your distance from the snake. Otherwise, he might repeat the mistake he just made, when he saw his son when the world froze, he realized the cost required to stop him.

Ichizo Bangun, walk to the crater to see the deformed Orochimaru inside. Sitting alone on the edge of the crater he called a servant and asked him to bring him some fruit. The waiter returned a while later with a bowl of chopped apples. Placing the bowl on her lap, she started eating the apples and swinging her legs like a pretty little boy.

With a mouthful of apples, he looked down on Orochimaru and began to speak, "I asked my father to bring you here today to tell you some things and let you make a decision." Even displaying a childlike quality of authority in the voice was indisputable, his tone was not asking for a polite request. His tone was like a superior speaking to subordinates, there was no room for negotiation.Orochimaru did not speak, he knew no matter how many tricks he had, he knew, he would die before he used any of them. The monster sitting in the corner exuded an almost real hostility, even if he thought of doing something that would harm the child staring at him, he would die like a dog.

“I know about the experiments you did, I also know where all your labs are located. So you have two choices, Work for me or die and all your deeds will be revealed. The choice is yours, whichever you choose don't regret it."

Orochimaru looked at the Child who ate the apple happily as if he was the True Snake of the two of them.
