Kakashi and Obito Didn't Disappoint, Fun Might Be Late, But It Won't Be Absent

Left 4 Dead is a purely "combat thrill" game. While there are some super-hardcore challenge modes, Uchiha Qi didn't include them in the trial version.

So, even though this Ninja World-specific version of Left 4 Dead is very realistic, its difficulty isn't actually that high.

Even the other three teams, mostly made up of ordinary people as players, were able to advance easily and kill to their heart's content after adapting to the zombie horde's impact.

As for the gore and horror scenes in the game, they weren't able to stimulate the players as much as in the real world.

It's not that the in-game experience isn't realistic enough; it's that the game offers players a certain degree of mental protection. Ordinary people or those with less robust minds are protected on a spiritual level. While in the game, they are deeply "immersed" in the roles they play, having long grown accustomed to scenes of carnage and not prone to nausea, vomiting, or emotional breakdowns from a little horror.

This is actually one of the new features developed after the Spiritual Network's control skill was upgraded, and Uchiha Jiri played a huge role in it. It was thanks to the power of the Three-Tomoe Sharingan that this kind of mental suggestion effect could be incorporated.

The Sharingan truly is a miraculous eye with infinite possibilities.

It makes sense that the Hokage series, before Boruto, was jokingly called the "Cosmetic Contact Lens Saga."

Of course, the other teams and Minato's Team were somewhat different. Minato's Team's game had already been quietly modified by Uchiha Qi.

This modification was inspired by the fun generated from Kakashi and Obito's initial argument, and the changes weren't extensive. Besides the monster spawn rate being slightly higher than other teams, the only other difference was "friendly fire" being enabled.

Yes, by default, friendly fire is disabled in this game; attacks against teammates directly fail. But Uchiha Qi had someone quietly enable friendly fire for Minato's Team—this was what Uchiha Qi had previously instructed.

Furthermore, players playing Left 4 Dead are completely isolated from the outside world, ensuring external sounds don't affect them and that players don't lose their immersion.

As a result, after battling their way through, the players were fully engrossed in the game, having forgotten about the outside world.

The other groups were fine, but Minato's Team, with friendly fire enabled, predictably ran into trouble.

"Dead last, was that on purpose?"

In the game, having arrived at a bridge and just experienced a zombie horde, Kakashi stared coldly at Uchiha Obito with dead fish eyes. In Kakashi's hand was a blood-stained Kunai, and there was a bloody hole behind his left shoulder, sizzling with blood.

Clearly, this injury was caused by a Kunai.

However, since it's a game with health bars, injuries are definitely different from the real world. For instance, though Kakashi's wound looked like it was constantly bleeding, his health bar only dropped by about 2%.

Facing Kakashi's question, Uchiha Obito's gaze flickered, "Who would intentionally hurt a teammate? I... I just made a bad throw."

Kakashi narrowed his eyes, "A mistake?"

"Yes, a mistake!" Obito's main strategy was to be stubborn.

Then, Kakashi glanced at Obito, said nothing more, and continued forward.

Obito breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had fooled him, then secretly chuckled sinisterly.

Nohara Rin, seeing that the two didn't argue as usual, paused for a moment before letting the matter go.

Only Minato Namikaze, as their teacher, seemed to want to speak but held back, then wanted to speak again, and ultimately said nothing.

After all, this was just a game, not reality. Even if they "died," they could be revived.

So, it was better to let them bicker—at least it was better than them having an internal conflict during a real-world mission.

Then, not long after, when encountering another group of Zombies, they were fighting well, when suddenly Uchiha Obito shrieked and jumped up, clutching his backside.

When he reached back in an angry panic, he pulled out a bloody Kunai, and whether it was psychological or not, Obito seemed to smell a faint, primal fertilizer scent.

An enraged Obito immediately glared at the person who threw the Kunai, and there, the dead-eyed Kakashi raised his left hand in an apologetic gesture: "Sorry, my hand slipped."

Obito (gritting teeth in anger)!

"Kakashi! What do you mean your hand slipped? I think you did that on purpose!"

Kakashi: "My hand really did slip."

With that, he turned to leave.

Such a half-hearted lie made Uchiha Obito laugh in furious disbelief. Then, with a flick of his hand, he exaggeratedly pretended to slip, shouting, "Ah~ I fell!"

At the same time, three Kunai flew out.

Kakashi, having been prepared, dodged immediately. However, constrained by the "frail" body of the elderly character he was currently controlling, though he realized what was happening, his body ultimately couldn't fully evade, and he took a "Thousand Years of Death" to his right buttock.

Seeing this, Obito couldn't keep up the act and burst out laughing on the spot—he couldn't help it. He had thrown three Kunai with no real aim, not even knowing where they might hit Kakashi, but Kakashi's sudden dodge resulted in him getting hit in the butt, which was too hilarious.

Instantly, Kakashi saw red. The searing pain from his backside made his anger surge. Then, pulling out the Kunai, he threw it back at Obito: "Dead last, you're looking for a fight, aren't you?"

Obito shrieked as a Kunai hit his knee, forgetting to laugh. He immediately stood up in anger and threw at Kakashi: "Bastard Kakashi, who's afraid of you? Since you started it, bring it on!"

Kakashi: "You started it! Idiot dead last!"

Then, the two stood a distance apart and began throwing Kunai at each other. Because their in-game characters' bodies weren't as agile as their original ones, their dodging ability was greatly reduced, making it difficult to avoid each other's Kunai. Soon, they were both covered in Kunai, looking like porcupines.

But due to the nature of the game, it was just a moment of pain; their actions were completely unaffected, only their health bars were continuously dropping.

However, their ridiculous behavior of arguing while throwing Kunai at each other created maximum comedic effect, filling the real-world audience with laughter. They were truly amused by this bickering pair.

Nohara Rin was initially nervous and scared watching them throw Kunai, but once she realized they wouldn't actually be harmed, only losing health, she became tearfully amused. She could only helplessly try to calm down the two mischievous livewires.

Minato Namikaze, having anticipated this, stood by with his hands on his hips, his expression a mix of annoyed and amused. In the end, he could only throw his hands up in resignation at his two students.

In the real world, Uchiha Qi smiled, applauding with great pleasure.

Indeed, Kakashi and Obito, those good buddies, didn't disappoint him. After giving them "special treatment," they certainly created some fun.

Right? It's not a strategy walkthrough live stream; a show that's merely "plain and simple" with no entertaining elements isn't worth watching.

This kind of laugh-filled development was the effect he wanted.

Uchiha Qi's joyful and satisfied demeanor was observed by the Uchiha Clan members guarding him in the shadows. Uchiha Jiri's heart stirred, and she called over a subordinate to convey Uchiha Qi's wishes.

"Lord Qi is very pleased with Uchiha Obito's performance. This might be beneficial for our Uchiha Clan to integrate into Konoha."

This distorted interpretation was successfully conveyed. When the Uchiha Clan elders learned of it, their hearts immediately stirred, and they watched the laughing audience with thoughtful expressions.

It seems that sometimes, our clan members being 'mocked' isn't such a bad thing after all.

Come to think of it, each of Konoha's major Ninja Clans has its unique characteristics, but the popular ones often have some more 'approachable' members, even if that 'approachability' seems embarrassing.

So that's it, is Uchiha Obito the kind of person who has emerged within our Uchiha Clan?

In that case, teaching Uchiha Obito a lesson can be set aside. Pass the word: no one is to bother Uchiha Obito. Tell the clan members, this is the combined will of our leadership and Lord Qi.

And so, the Uchiha Clan elders quietly completed their instructions to the clan members, and Obito was spared the trouble of being disciplined by the clan for his public embarrassment.

Afterward, when Obito learned what had happened behind the scenes, he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a lingering fear and quietly thinking how close he'd come. Following that was gratitude towards Uchiha Qi. After all, everyone in the Uchiha Clan stated that it was Uchiha Qi's protection that saved Obito from a clan punishment.

Yes, the kind of protection Uchiha Qi himself was completely unaware of.

Of course, all of this would happen later. For now, the fun and underlying purpose of Left 4 Dead had already been demonstrated by the players in the four teams. It was directly listed by the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, as a Genjutsu Game that future graduating Ninja teams must play.
