"This brat really didn't play by the rules. He actually wanted to just leave without caring about anything?"

Inside the Kamui Dimension, Black Zetsu stood with Obito and could not help complaining.

Obito snorted when he heard that before speaking.

"Hmph, that's why Konohagakure has become more and more rotten. Back then, we were willing to give everything for that village, especially Rin.

Now it seems Rin truly gave her heart to the wrong place. Hmph, Konohagakure."

Obito had spent so long in Kirigakure that he more or less knew why Rin had chosen to die by Kakashi's hand.

What had it been for? For the village, to prevent the Three-Tails from causing massive destruction in Konohagakure.

For that reason, she had even been willing to die!

But knowing was one thing. It did not mean he could forgive Kakashi, much less approve of Rin's will and her actions.

He had only one thought now: to create a world of his own, a world with the real Rin, Kakashi, and the others!

"..."

Obito was busy moving himself emotionally, but Black Zetsu merely glanced at him without a word.

That woman Rin Nohara was actually killed by us.

But he did not dare say that aloud. He knew just how crazily Obito had turned Kirigakure upside down. Put simply, he had been avenging that woman.

After all, Kirigakure had sealed the Three-Tails inside her, and it was Kirigakure's relentless pursuit that had made her choose to die at Kakashi's hands.

But unfortunately, Kirigakure had done all that under Madara Uchiha's orders!

Rin Nohara's death had been nothing more than a script arranged by Madara Uchiha. That fool Obito had merely been a tool.

Still, that tool had access to more and more resources now. Perhaps someday, he would uncover some of the truth.

"That kid's making a move."

Shaking his head, Black Zetsu could not be bothered to think any further. Obito had a "bomb" in his heart anyway. If the kid truly tried to resist, Black Zetsu would send him to reunite with Rin Nohara.

Black Zetsu looked toward Hidezawa and saw him pull out a kunai, leaving him somewhat puzzled.

"What is this kid trying to do?"

"Who knows."

Obito looked down from above with disdain as he replied calmly.

"Whatever he does is just pointless struggling. Does he really dare kill Itachi Uchiha?"

Yet the moment Obito finished speaking, he heard Hidezawa muttering to himself.

"Looks like someone's trying to frame me. Who could it be?"

Holding the kunai, Hidezawa tilted his head and thought seriously.

"And this guy left in the middle of the night. Was he carrying out a mission?"

"What is the person framing me after? What does he want?"

"But now, it seems I can't explain myself clearly either."

"There are no other traces, no clear leads, and no one else saw anything."

"I'm the only one at the scene. Whoever did this deliberately left him here with me. They may already have a thorough plan in place."

"When Itachi Uchiha wakes up, he'll probably assume I did it right away, won't he?"

"But aside from me, is there anyone else who can use the Flying Thunder God?"

"Perhaps it wasn't the Flying Thunder God, but a similar space-time technique?"

Not bad.

Hearing Hidezawa's muttering, Obito and Black Zetsu both nodded imperceptibly.

The moment he saw Itachi Uchiha, he had thought of so many possibilities and had even guessed some of their plans and intentions.

That alone proved the brat before them was quite outstanding. Analyzing intelligence had always been one of a ninja's most important abilities!

"Looks like there's no way around this."

"After all, I'm with Root, and Lord Danzo already hates the Uchiha."

"No matter how you look at it, I can't explain this clearly. I might even drag Root into it."

Hidezawa continued muttering as he slowly walked over to Itachi Uchiha.

The kunai in his hand glinted coldly, looking chilling and sinister!

"Sorry, I can't drag Root into this, so I'll have to trouble you."

"You just became a chunin, and I was the one who evaluated you. I do feel a little sorry about this, but you'd be willing to help your examiner, right?"

What did that mean?

What was this brat going to do?

Hearing Hidezawa's words and watching his movements, Obito and Black Zetsu both froze.

A terrible feeling immediately rose in their hearts, and then Hidezawa spoke again.

"You just became a chunin and were especially motivated. To prove that you were an excellent Uchiha ninja, you decided to carry out a mission alone."

"But unfortunately, the mission was more difficult than you expected. With no one to help you, you ultimately died outside the village."

No, are you fucking serious? You actually dare do it?

Obito and Black Zetsu were dumbfounded when they heard that. They truly had not expected this kid to be so decisive.

Although Hidezawa was in the Anbu, Itachi Uchiha's status was anything but ordinary!

This kid was the clan head's son. If he died, the impact on Konohagakure would be enormous.

Moreover, he now belonged to the Anbu and got along well with its members. In their eyes, this kid should have followed the Anbu's rules.

But now they realized this little bastard had no such intention at all. For his own sake, he dared do anything!

"Oh, right. You're also an outstanding Uchiha. I don't think the enemy would pass up your eyes, either."

Hidezawa waved the kunai in his hand, then seemed to think of something and continued.

"Don't worry. I'll take your eyes and live on properly while carrying your will!"

This time, Obito could not hold it together.

Why did those words sound so damn much like what he had said to Kakashi when he was buried beneath those rocks?

"Go in peace. Once your corpse turns to bones, I might 'accidentally find' it and bring it back."

Hidezawa seemed to have made up his mind, and his presence began to turn cold.

"Then you can be reunited with your family too, can't you?"

"Enough. It's time for you to go. Goodbye, Itachi Uchiha!"

Fuck, you really are a lunatic!

Obito completely lost it and began cursing wildly in his heart.

Itachi Uchiha was a seed he had his eye on, an extremely valuable chess piece. No matter what, he could not allow such a promising prospect to die here!

Yet it seemed he had personally gotten that prospect killed, and Obito could not take it anymore!

"Stop!"

Unable to endure it any longer, Obito let out an enraged roar. In the next instant, his figure shot out of the Kamui Dimension.

What he needed to do now was stop Hidezawa from going insane. And even if Itachi Uchiha had to be killed, he absolutely could not let Hidezawa handle it like this.

At the very least, someone had to witness it, so they could provoke Shisui Uchiha...

"Hm?"

However, the moment he appeared, a kunai flew rapidly toward him.

In the next instant, Hidezawa's figure vanished, while his voice arrived at Obito's ear along with the kunai.

"You finally came out, you bastard!"

New author begging for continued reads. Current reads determine everything for a book, and stockpiling chapters can easily kill one.

Thank you, everyone! Onz
