The Yamanaka and Hyuga Family Heads Appear Together, a Strange First Meeting

Obito Uchiha a very complex person. Perhaps because he often played different roles, his personality showed obvious signs of splitting.

Perhaps because he's used to wearing a mask, he can be the goofy Tobi, the ruthless Uchiha Madara, or the awkward and stubborn Obito.

This world is truly wondrous. Kabuto wore too many masks, desperately searching for his true self. Obito, discarded his true self and willingly donned the mask.

Even though he talks about grand principles of war and peace, and constantly talks about creating a new world, who can guarantee that Obito himself has never doubted those words?

Perhaps it was beyond their control, or perhaps they had stained their lives with too much blood and could not turn back.

But for Naruto, none of that mattered; he didn't empathize with anyone. Most people experience suffering in life.

Sasuke sees things clearly in this regard; it's black and white, he doesn't care what you think. My rules are my rules, I don't care what you think, I care what I think.

Naruto thought the same way, which is why he harbored a deep grudge against Danzo, Itachi Uchiha, Kisame Hoshigaki. He didn't care what their reasons were; he wanted to take revenge on them all.

However, he wasn't so serious about things that didn't concern him. For example, when Nagato saw Jiraiya looking troubled, he simply let him make the decision himself.

He lacked the awareness to be a savior; he even wanted to lie low and have women on both sides. However, as more and more people needed his protection, he could only be a shelter for a select few.

"I've already released him, you..." Obito Uchiha's gaze fell on the upright coffin. He couldn't understand how Naruto could so easily activate the Impure World Reincarnation.

He had previously heard Uchiha Madara mention that the Impure World Reincarnation was a sinister Forbidden Jutsu developed by the Second. During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Konohagakure was short-handed.

However, no sacrifices were needed back then, and the corpses produced by the Impure World Reincarnation had no consciousness; they were just living bombs with Explosive Tag strapped to their bodies.

Looking at it now, it seems like Naruto Uzumaki has really mastered the Second's legacy Ninjutsu.

"Okay, fine, I'm a man of my word." Naruto snapped his fingers, and the sliding coffin instantly disappeared into the ground, vanishing completely.

Since Obito Uchiha wasn't after his women, Naruto wouldn't be so greedy as to prey on Rin Nohara. The situation was urgent, and he couldn't think about anything else then.

Now that the matter is resolved, he should let go appropriately.

"Where is the Nine-Tails?" Obito Uchiha.

"Are you crazy or am I crazy?" Naruto's face turned cold. "I was just discussing this with you and you didn't respond, you're just showing off. Now you want the Nine-Tails? I won't give it to you even if it's a dog."

"And that Black Zetsu's hiding somewhere, you'd better tell him not to get any funny ideas about my woman, or I'll definitely put him back in his mother's belly."

Naruto's words were simple and crude, making Obito Uchiha feel a bit awkward. He gained a deeper understanding of Obito's character: a villain he couldn't beat for the time being, and one who had no bottom line when it came to his actions.

Obito Uchiha was speechless, but he was unwilling to continue the argument.

"Stop? Where are you going?" Naruto clearly didn't intend to let him off so easily, but unfortunately, he was worried about Ino and Hinata and didn't plan to get entangled with Obito Uchiha.

Black Zetsu's whereabouts are unpredictable; he's a ticking time bomb. This is the edge of Konoha Forest, and Hinata and Ino will likely have a long time before they reunite with the people of Konohagakure.

Naruto narrowed his eyes, his expression shifting between anger and uncertainty, if he were to encounter Black Zetsu secretly plotting against him. The important thing was that while he could kill Obito now, dealing with Black Zetsu afterward would be quite troublesome.

Obito must die, without a doubt. Whether it's for what he did to the Fourth Hokage or his attempt to kidnap Ino and Hinata, he must die.

That son of a bitch killed my master and mistress, and he still has the nerve to come back and persecute their orphan. What's even more infuriating is that he used such despicable means without any hesitation.

No matter how much you wash, you can never get rid of such a person; they are nothing but living beasts.

Therefore, Naruto didn't want to end his life so easily; a hasty death would be too lenient. He wasn't one to forget grudges either; to kill someone, one must also destroy their spirit.

Obito's only concern is undoubtedly Rin Nohara, and although Naruto has just promised Obito that he will never Impure World Reincarnation Rin Nohara again using Edo Tensei, he did not say that he would not revive her.

"Hmm?" Obito's expression was not good, and he did not want to waste time with Naruto.

"You can't command Black Zetsu?" Naruto, somewhat surprised. "So, what exactly is your relationship? Since you've been together for so long, you must have noticed something, right?"

"What does this have to do with you?" Obito coldly.

"It has nothing to do with me, but," Naruto retorted, "Then why don't you think about who killed Rin Nohara in the first place? Why should Uchiha Madara help you?"

"You've known the true nature of the people around you all these years, haven't you? Yet you witnessed Kakashi killing Rin Nohara, and you don't have any doubts about that?"

"Kakashi told you?" Obito frowned, staring coldly at Naruto. "What do you, an outsider, know?"

"Then I'll be blunt, take it or leave it. Rin Nohara's death was a trap set for you by Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu. Uchiha Madara placed Cursed Seal on Rin Nohara's heart and sealed the Three-Tails inside her body."

Naruto ignored him and continued speaking to himself.

"Rin Nohara willingly died at Kakashi's hands for the sake of the village. And the reason why Uchiha Madara went to such lengths to set up this scheme was for you."

"In other words, the person who killed Rin Nohara is you, you brain-dead idiot. If you had died directly, Rin Nohara wouldn't have died. So, think about why you weren't the one who died?"

"What evidence do you have?" Obito his eyes, still showing no reaction.

"Idiot." Naruto smiled dismissively.

Obito Uchiha fell silent, staring at the sneering Naruto for a long time, his expression shifting. He stood there silently for two minutes, lost in thought.

"So what?"

"Hmm?" Naruto narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"

"Even if that's the truth, so what? It's already happened, Rin is dead," Obito said. "It's all meaningless now, what's the point of saying all this?"

"This world."

"Stop! Don't spout any more platitudes. Obito Uchiha, you're not worthy." Naruto gave in and immediately stopped him. "The world will keep turning even without you. Who do you think you are?"

"The only savior of the Shinobi World? The return of the king?"

"Let's stick to the facts and stop with the empty rhetoric. This world is indeed cruel. It's true you lost someone you loved, but others didn't."

At this point, Naruto took a deep breath and revealed his ultimate goal.

"I don't have time to waste with you. I'll just ask you one question: do you want to revive Rin Nohara?"

Upon hearing this, Obito was completely stunned, his pupils dilated slightly, and he stared at Naruto in disbelief.

"What?"

"Rinnegan, trade your life for Rin Nohara's life." Naruto glanced at him. "Before you die, you might be able to see her one last time."

"Are you going to change it or not?"

"How could such a technique exist?" Obito Uchiha.

"If I say it's there, then it is. I have no reason to lie to you, after all..." Naruto pondered for a moment, then looked up at Obito Uchiha, his pupils flashing with a sharp light.

The next moment, a huge white phantom appeared behind him. Instantly, Obito Uchiha, for before him was the phantom of a blue-faced, fanged Death Reaper.

A massive white robe was torn away, revealing a gaunt, emaciated body and a white dagger biting into the jaws of Death Reaper. The oppressive aura of death instantly enveloped the surroundings, plunging everything into silence.

The birdsong ceased, as did the rustling of insects. Utter silence reigned; death, like a merciless reaper of life, plunged the surroundings into stillness.

"Is this the Reaper Death Seal?" Obito was no stranger to this Forbidden Jutsu; the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, had used it to seal the Nine-Tails.

Naruto was pleased with Obito's reaction. If he could cut off one of Obito's arms and his soul right now, he would have done so already. Unfortunately, that guy was fast, and the skill had a wind-up animation.

If he were to Obito Uchiha would most likely have to hide in the Kamui Space again.

After thinking it over, I realized that a small act of impatience could ruin a bigger plan, so I decided to wait until he fell into the trap. If Obito was willing to trade his life for Rin Nohara's, I definitely wouldn't let him die so quickly.

Try to keep him alive, treat him like a dead dog, let him experience the feeling of collapse. Perhaps we can keep it from Rin Nohara, so she can stab Obito without knowing.

Although it felt cruel to Obito, Naruto's resolve hardened instantly when he thought about how he almost had to endure the same pain as Obito.

Whatever suffering this man endured, it was all deserved!

"Resurrecting someone who has been dead for many years may be impossible for others, but if I could summon Rin Nohara's soul."

"Based on the Impure World Reincarnation, you use the Rinnegan revive her body, and then merge her body and soul into one. The Impure World Reincarnation can be instantly canceled."

"Life and death are never things that are too far away, nor are they a fantasy. The question is, would you dare to trade your life for another?"

Naruto's words echoed in Obito Uchiha's ears. He hesitated, looked up at Naruto, and seemed to want to verify the truth of what he said.

"Don't look at me, this is your own choice."

The night wind howled as Ino led Hinata toward Konohagakure. Throughout the journey, the two remained silent, their faces filled with anxiety, not daring to stop.

Hinata couldn't help but want to turn around and look, but Ino pulled her back and stopped her.

"Don't look back!"

Ino took a deep breath and said solemnly as she quickened her pace.

"That's the man who captured us. We're far too weak compared to him. Even if we stayed, we'd only be a burden."

"Ino, but Naruto..." Hinata's tears were almost falling.

"He'll be alright. We need to get back to the village safely now." Ino's expression turned serious. "Although I don't know how that guy did it."

"Although he is usually unreliable and dishonest, we can only trust him to solve the problem now."

"Okay." Hinata didn't care about her own safety, she was only worried about Naruto, but with Ino here, she couldn't say anything else.

Fortunately, the two women soon encountered the Konohagakure Anbu reinforcements, and Ino breathed a sigh of relief. She was also worried about Naruto, but she couldn't disregard Hinata's safety.

She knew why Naruto had asked her to take Hinata away—it was simply because she was calmer than Hinata and wouldn't act impulsively or delay. Now, she had finally met the Hidden Konohagakure's Anbu.

She couldn't help but look back at the dark forest, her eyes filled with worry. Ino was most afraid that Naruto and that person had made some kind of deal that would harm her, perhaps some kind of compromise.

This night was destined to be anything but peaceful; Konohagakure was in turmoil, like water boiling in a pot. The disappearance of two young ladies from noble ninja clans was no small matter.

"What? We found it?" Kotetsu Hagane, one of Konohagakure's former gatekeepers, shouted with delight.

"Quickly report to the Sixth Hokage!"

"Do I need you to report? The message from the Anbu has definitely already been delivered." One of the gatekeepers, Izumo Kamizuki, shrugged and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Konohagakure dispatched almost all of its personnel to conduct a large-scale search along the direction of the village entrance, as if they wouldn't give up until they found the person. Fortunately, in the end, everyone was happy.

The Yamanaka couple were overjoyed; Ino was their only daughter. Even if she were to disappear, or even lose a single hair Inoichi Yamanaka would swear to kill the culprit.

Naruto should be thankful he's still alive, considering he's already given Ino quite a bit of trouble. The only reason he's still alive is because their secret relationship hasn't been fully revealed yet.

Not only the Yamanaka couple, but even the usually stern-faced Hyuga Hiashi waited at the village entrance early, his expression tense. Even though his face remained expressionless, he privately asked his servants over a dozen times where everyone was.

Hinata is the eldest daughter of the Hyuga Clan no matter what. No matter how stern Hyuga Hiashi is, he cannot change the fact that Hinata is his first child.

People tend to devote more attention to their first child, even if they can't shower them with affection, they still occupy a large part of their hearts. No matter how old-fashioned Hyuga Hiashi was, he couldn't help but worry about Hinata.

As dawn broke, the distant Konoha Forest was shrouded in a layer of bluish-black light. The darkness that had enveloped the sky slowly receded, gradually thinning.

"They're here!" someone suddenly shouted.

Sure enough, several figures appeared on the horizon. Besides the Anbu Ninja in uniform, there was Ino Neji Hyuga, followed by Ino and Hinata.

The two women walked together, their shoulders touching. Seeing that their parents had arrived and were waiting, and seeing their joyful expressions, the two women felt both touched and a little embarrassed.

After all, this intricate relationship always feels...

Hinata secretly glanced at Ino's parents, a thought involuntarily popping into her mind: what if they found out about her current relationship with Ino and Naruto?

Ino, who was being pulled into Yamanaka Rino 'Ino arms, felt somewhat helpless and could only reluctantly comfort her mother, who was crying her eyes out, while her gaze fell on the rigid Hyuga Clan.

Hinata's father seems to be a very serious person; they probably won't accept it. That day will come sooner or later, and how should she face it?
