Don't Be So Extreme, Obito Uchiha-Rin Nohara Doesn't Like Teacher-Killing Scum
"What's there to talk about?" Obito Uchiha's feelings were complicated. He had been recognized right away, as if he had no secrets at all.
The young girl, Rin Nohara, was standing on Naruto's side, gazing at him with a complex expression.
Even though he kept repeating in his heart that Rin was dead, the Rin Nohara in front of him was just a fragment of her memory that had been interrupted at the moment of her death, and was not the real Rin at all.
But was the Rin Nohara from the past really Rin Nohara? This was something that couldn't be thought about too deeply. Almost instantly, a fine layer of sweat appeared on Obito Uchiha's forehead.
Naruto didn't care at all. He didn't care what Obito Uchiha was thinking. As he said, everyone had something on them, so why didn't they all sit down and talk?
He wasn't plotting anything; he was simply there to negotiate. Although he desperately wanted to kill Obito, his primary task was to rescue Ino and Hinata.
"Sit down, and we'll have something to talk about, Obito Uchiha." He looked at the figure wearing the orange swirling mask and said in a deep voice, "Masks will grow on your face if you wear them for too long."
"What does this have to do with you?" Obito Uchiha looked at him coldly.
"Obito! You've gone too far!" Rin Nohara, standing next to Naruto, suddenly spoke up, looking at Obito with a complicated expression. "How did you become like this?"
Upon hearing this, Naruto smirked and remained silent, ready to watch the show. He actually hoped that Obito would give Rin Nohara a good scolding, and preferably beat the Impure World Reincarnation Rin Nohara to a pulp.
Every person has a pillar of belief to support them in life. Rather than saying that Obito's weakness was Rin Nohara, it would be more accurate to say that the reason he kept convincing himself was Rin Nohara's death.
Obito was faced with only two choices: to regard the Impure World Reincarnation Rin as the real Rin, which represented the vibrant life of the young girl Rin Nohara before her death.
Or they insist that Rin Nohara is dead, and that the girl from the past Rin Nohara, is a fake.
If Obito chooses the former, then he will naturally have to face Rin Nohara's questioning. The war took everyone's lives, and she believed Obito was dead, but it turned out he wasn't.
"Obito, how could you do that to Minato-sensei? So many innocent people!" Rin Nohara clenched her hands tightly together and placed them against her chest.
"Innocent? There are no innocent people in this world. Everything is fake!" Obito Uchiha at Rin Nohara and said through gritted teeth.
"Reality is too cruel. I don't want to kill them. I won't die if they don't stop me."
"Obito... have you gone mad?" Rin Nohara stared at Obito in shock, feeling for the first time that the person in front of her was completely unfamiliar. "Why... did it turn out like this?"
Naruto stood aside and watched coldly. Although he did not agree with Rin Nohara's verbal attacks, he reluctantly expressed his understanding because she was just a naive girl.
"I'm not crazy! I just want to change this false world and create a new one. Is that wrong?" Obito took off his mask, leaving only a dark, empty hole in one eye.
"Ninjas only instigate wars and bring endless death. We are all executioners, puppets with no ideals or future."
"Rin, Kakashi stood by and watched you die. I can't forgive him, and I can't forgive myself either. If only I had done it sooner, even faster."
"It's too late to say all this now. In any case, I don't think what I'm doing now is wrong. In this hopeless world, I see no hope at all."
"Whether I am alive or not is no longer of any importance."
Rin Nohara froze, staring at the agitated and furious Obito, and involuntarily took a step back. Obito noticed this step and a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Lin, do you think I'm crazy?"
"It's gone!"
"Ino and Hinata have both disappeared?"
"Yes, Hyuga Clan Neji clan, sent someone to inform us. In addition, our people also discovered something unusual at the Yamanaka Flower Shop during their investigation."
"There were almost no signs of a struggle at the scene, nor any signs of them leaving on their own initiative; they all mysteriously disappeared from the room."
Uzuki Yugao's face instantly darkened as she looked at her Anbu subordinates. Someone had infiltrated Konohagakure silently, without anyone noticing.
Why did Naruto happen to return to the village at this particular time? And the invasion of Konohagakure, which only took Ino and Hinata, clearly targeted Naruto.
No, it should be said that they came for the Nine-Tails.
"Has the Sixth Hokage received the message?" she asked, looking up.
"Received," the subordinate replied.
"Okay, continue searching around the village. Report any findings immediately." Uzuki Yugao nodded, then turned and left, heading towards the Hokage Building.
Under the moonlight, Uzuki Yugao leaped silently across the rooftops, then suddenly looked up and froze. With a soft thud, she landed on a rooftop and turned to stare intently at a spot.
That direction leads to the Hokage Rock, where Kakashi's statue was halfway completed when it inexplicably cracked.
Kakashi had clearly been dragged out of bed halfway through his sleep, his hair a mess, and he was now sitting in the Hokage's Office looking at the compiled clues.
As the Hokage, he had to stay in the village and could only make decisions based on intelligence.
Three knocks sounded on the door. Kakashi raised his eyelids and said, "Come in." Uzuki Yugao pushed the door open and walked in, getting straight to the point.
"Naruto has also disappeared. It's likely that the people who kidnapped Hinata and Ino released bait. They were obviously after Naruto, and their target was probably the Nine-Tails."
Upon hearing this, Kakashi stroked the paper and said.
"Things happened too suddenly. Naruto and the enemy should still be within the Land of Fire. If we go to investigate now, there's probably still a chance."
"I have already sent people to notify the Hyuga Clan, Aburame Clan, and Inuzuka Clan to provide reconnaissance support. The Anbu will need to assist from the middle. The mission level is tentatively set at S."
"Who would be doing this?" she asked again.
"I don't know. Unless we can find Naruto, he might know who the other person is now." Kakashi crossed his fingers, his mood not very high.
For some reason, he had a bad feeling.
"Oh, right, Kakashi." When no one was around, Uzuki Yugao still called him by his name, even though she knew that Kakashi was only filling in temporarily and had no real interest in the job.
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"The half-carved statue of yours on the Hokage Rock has cracked," Uzuki Yugao said, looking at him. "Could the crack be someone you know? An enemy or something?"
"It's cracked?" Kakashi was also stunned. He was a lone wolf with countless enemies, but now that he was Hokage, who would bother him?
The conversation ended there, and Kakashi still had no clue what to do.
Meanwhile, Sasuke had already learned the location of the Three-Tails and was preparing to capture it on a chosen day. However, he received a last-minute message from White Zetsu, instructing them to abandon their mission and head to the Land of Fire.
After the events at Kumogakure and Hidden Mist, even the most confident Sasuke but wonder if his team's whereabouts had been discovered beforehand. After looking around, he naturally began to suspect White Zetsu.
Of the four members of the Hawk Team, none of them seemed like traitors except for himself, so the intelligence must have been leaked from the outside.
"What? Sasuke Uchiha?" White Zetsu felt uneasy seeing Sasuke's scrutinizing gaze, as the order did seem rather abrupt.
The other party joined this broken Akatsuki Organization halfway through their career, and their cooperation is only temporary. If the other party goes on strike and disobeys orders, there's nothing he can do.
"Why give up now?" Sasuke glanced coldly at White Zetsu. "We've already prepared a plan to capture the Three-Tails, and we're going to make our move tomorrow."
"Something's happened in the Land of Fire. Uchiha Madara is planning to capture the Nine-Tails," White Zetsu explained. Sasuke was unaware of Obito Uchiha's true identity.
"Nine-Tails?" Sasuke frowned.
After White Zetsu left, Karin cautiously looked around, sensing that nothing was amiss, before turning to Sasuke and speaking.
"Are those guys playing us?"
Sasuke glanced at Karin but didn't say anything.
"Can't the Land of Fire handle the Nine-Tails' capture? Why do they have to send us over?" Suigetsu rolled her eyes and said in a sleazy tone.
"They're about to make their move here, and now they want us to Land of Fire? Those people clearly don't take the Tailed Beast seriously. What's the point of having us capture Tailed Beast then?"
Suigetsu's words, though rough, were not without merit. Sasuke frowned, and it took him a while to look up and speak.
"Perhaps something has happened over there that even Uchiha Madara can't handle, which is why he urgently wants us to go there."
"Sasuke, if even Uchiha Madara can't handle this, what's the point of us going?" Karin's expression darkened as she retorted.
"There's clearly something wrong here, especially the guy who relayed the message. He doesn't seem normal at all. He might be the one who's been causing us so much trouble lately."
Karin was somewhat dissatisfied, and Suigetsu was even more furious.
"Yeah, almost everything we do lately gets discovered. I would never believe it's a coincidence; someone must have tipped us off!"
"The last time we invaded Kumogakure, we were almost killed. Those big guys chased after us like madmen. Last time we invaded Hidden Mist, we were discovered again, but luckily the enemy wasn't very strong."
"So, we've already fallen for their trap twice. Are we still going to Konohagakure? I could have predicted it. Before we even entered the village, a group of Konohagakure's Anbu surrounded us."
Jugo sat to one side, still silent.
Karin overheard Sasuke and Suigetsu's complaints, and his gaze became complicated. The fire in the distance had gone out, and the forest was quiet.
All three eyes were fixed on Sasuke, waiting for him to make a decision.
After a long while, Sasuke looked up and glanced at Suigetsu and the other two.
"Go, but don't enter Konohagakure territory. Just observe from a distance on the outskirts."
"Why?" Karin, puzzled. "We're about to capture the Three-Tails, everything's ready, and now we're just going to give up?"
Suigetsu didn't care; whether or not he caught the Three-Tails was none of his business. Not catching it meant less work to do, which was great; slacking off was always the most enjoyable thing.
"Catching the Three-Tails is pointless, and we can't completely trust that man who claims to be Uchiha Madara," Sasuke said. "But he's stronger than us, so we have to go and check it out."
"This world is too chaotic. If we want peace, we must eliminate all extremes, seal the Tailed Beast, kill the Five Kage, and become the ruler of the Shinobi World."
"Our strength alone is not enough; we need to make use of them."
The moment Obito Uchiha Ino and Hinata, the gears of fate in the Shinobi World began to turn. This meant that the supreme powers of the Shinobi World had officially stepped onto the stage and begun their face-to-face struggle.
It was as if a huge rock had been thrown into a deep pool, instantly turning the water murky.
The only beneficiary was probably the Three-Tails hiding at the bottom of the lake, who unknowingly escaped the disaster and continued to play underwater.
In the Konoha Forest, only seven or eight minutes had passed, and Naruto was still confronting Obito Uchiha. Rin Nohara was terrified by Obito, feeling both shocked and sorry for him.
He didn't care what Rin Nohara was thinking; he was more concerned about Obito Uchiha's situation. Naruto's goal was negotiation; everyone shouldn't be so extreme, and everyone should compromise.
Extremists never end well. If we're more peaceful, we can definitely sit down and talk.
As long as Ino and Hinata are safe, he can consider agreeing to any conditions. The personal safety of the two women is the top priority, and everything else can be dealt with later.
The key to breaking the deadlock now Rin Nohara. He doesn't expect this naive girl to be able to influence Obito Uchiha, this madman.
As long as Rin Nohara can influence Obito Uchiha's emotions, that's fine. After all, only in front of Rin Nohara will Obito Uchiha, this multifaceted person, take off his mask and say a few truthful words.
Otherwise, one minute it's Uchiha Madara, the next it's Tobi from Akatsuki Organization. People like that are used to impersonating others, and their inner beliefs are extremely firm.
Naruto's few words were unlikely to have a significant impact on Obito Uchiha's heart, especially without Rin Nohara opening Obito's heart. Even if they sat down to negotiate, the outcome wouldn't have been very good.
He could even imagine him rambling on and on about Rin Nohara. Hidden beneath layers of his identity, Obito Uchiha remained unmoved and even felt a little amused.
Looking back, he'd made the right bet; Rin Nohara's words had a good effect on Obito Uchiha. With just a few words, she forced Obito Uchiha a string of naive remarks.
The more agitated Obito became, the calmer Naruto's heart became.
The woman Obito Uchiha day and night Rin Nohara, was standing beside him, and he was now on the moral high ground, able to attack or retreat at will.
If it were the original Naruto Uzumaki, hearing such naive remarks, he would probably grit his teeth, clench his fists, and Talk no Jutsu. After all, he couldn't tolerate his parents being killed by such an ingrate.
Fortunately, Naruto was quite resistant to naive and immature remarks; he had heard even more outrageous and childish comments before. He remained calm throughout, watching Obito gradually become agitated.
Seeing that Rin Nohara's words were weak and she couldn't refute Obito Uchiha at all, and that the little girl was so timid and hesitant, Naruto couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
So he took a step forward, half of his body blocking Rin Nohara, and looked at Obito Uchiha not far away.
"Don't be so extreme, Obito Uchiha and Rin Nohara don't like the birth of someone who kills their teacher."
I didn't get caught because I stayed up too late; it took me a whole day to recover.
