Uchiha Obito Has Faith
Xian Er's attitude made Uchiha realize that this guy no longer seemed to obey him as before; his wings seemed to have hardened.
Although Uchiha doesn't know exactly how he and Xian Er got along in the other world, judging from Xian Er's current behavior, he is clearly full of hostility towards his counterpart in that other world.
Uchiha pondered to himself, unconsciously touching his chin before turning his gaze to Xian Er and asking slowly, "What was the situation in the Ninja World like when you arrived?"
Upon hearing this, Xian Er's lips curled into a slight smile, as if he had been prepared for this question. He replied calmly, "I activated Infinite Tsukuyomi. Presumably, they are now all trapped in an eternal illusion."
In that world, everyone can obtain the happiness they desire, and war will forever disappear from this world.
As he finished speaking, Xian Er's laughter grew louder and louder, as if he were incredibly proud of the "wonderful world" he had created.
"And I became the second Sage of Six Paths, the god of the Ninja World!" Xian Er's face was full of arrogance, and his laughter echoed in this space, as if it wanted to break through all constraints.
However, Uchiha was unaffected by Xian Er's laughter. His brows furrowed slightly as he pondered to himself. According to Obito's earlier statement, his counterpart from another world was the mastermind behind the Eye of the Moon Plan. So, what was this Xian Er now?
Could he really just sit idly by and watch Xian Er claim the spoils of victory for himself? Uchiha shook his head; he refused to believe he would give up so easily.
Just as Uchiha was pondering, Black Zetsu suddenly emerged from Obito's body like a ghost. Upon seeing Uchiha, Black Zetsu immediately bowed deeply, shouting, "Lord Madara, my master!"
Upon seeing this, Uchiha smirked coldly. If he hadn't already seen through Black Zetsu's true nature in this world, he might have been truly deceived by this fawning appearance, believing that Black Zetsu was loyal to him.
"Your mother has been rescued, she's over there." As he spoke, Uchiha pointed in a direction where Otsutsuki Kaguya was enjoying a meal with a smile on her face.
Black Zetsu trembled and immediately rushed in that direction. The figure he had longed for day and night had finally reappeared.
He burst into tears. "Mother! To revive you, Black Zetsu lay dormant for over 2000 years, and today I've finally seen you again!"
Otsutsuki Kaguya, who was enjoying her meal, paused upon hearing the crying. She looked at Black Zetsu, nodded, and said, "Thank you for your hard work!" Then she continued eating. It must be said, the food in the Ninja World was delicious.
I have no idea what those foods I ate in this Ninja World a thousand years ago were!
Compared to the food at Uchiha Kō's banquet, this was practically pig swill!
Black Zetsu's lips twitched. His mother was his mother, but he felt like he had never really understood her.
However, at that moment, another fierce battle suddenly broke out on the other side. Just as Xian Er was about to continue using his skills to repel Uchiha, a figure suddenly stood up.
Everyone looked closely and saw that it was Obito Uchiha! He looked at Uchiha with a resolute expression and shouted, "Sensei, get out of the way!" His voice revealed a stubbornness and defiance, and his eyes burned with raging anger.
Seeing this, Uchiha frowned slightly and said in a deep voice, "Obito, don't be reckless! Your strength in the other world is in no way inferior to mine, and you also possess the combined power of all the Tailed Beast. You are no match for him!"
It turns out that this battle plan was originally proposed by Uchiha, but Xian Er beat him to it.
However, Obito Uchiha seemed unconcerned, firmly replying, "Sensei, sometimes, conviction is more important than strength! In my eyes, he was simply blinded by overwhelming power and lost his true self!"
"There's absolutely no way someone like that can defeat me!" Obito Uchiha's voice was cold and confident, as if he had seen through everything about his opponent. Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stood up straight, exuding a powerful aura.
The next moment, he threw a Kunai without hesitation. The Kunai spun rapidly in the air, drawing a cold light as it flew straight toward his opponent. And on the Kunai, a name was clearly engraved—Lin.
The handwriting and name, like a bolt of lightning, instantly drew Xian Er's attention. In just a second, Xian Er's focus was completely drawn to this Kunai.
However, in that brief second, Obito Uchiha moved with the speed of a ghost.
His figure transformed into a streak of black light, appearing beside the Flying Thunder God Kunai like lightning.
Immediately afterwards, a giant Rasengan materialized in his hand, carrying boundless energy, and he slammed it towards Xian Er!
Xian Er was completely stunned; he had not anticipated that Obito Uchiha such a powerful attack.
In that instant, he forgot to defend himself and watched helplessly as the Rasengan hurtled towards him.
Just as the Rasengan was about to hit Xian Er, a figure suddenly flashed through his mind—his teacher, Namikaze Minato.
Obito Uchiha's move was exactly the same as Namikaze Minato's! The speed of the Flying Thunder God and the power of the Rasengan reminded Xian Er of his former teacher.
So, Minato-sensei would actually pass on such powerful ninjutsu to me? But I...
A surge of indescribable pain and regret welled up in Xian Er's heart. He thought of his past self, his hands stained with blood, betraying those who were truly good to him.
The blood of his master Namikaze Minato and the eldest sister Uzumaki Kushina splattered on his hands.
His tears flowed uncontrollably, like a flood bursting its banks.
He offered no resistance to the attacks of this world version of himself, as if he had already seen through everything about Obito Uchiha, letting his Rasengan rain down on him.
In just a moment, Xian Er was violently sent flying by Obito Uchiha from this world.
His body flew through the air in an arc like a kite with a broken string before crashing heavily onto the ground in the yard.
Xian Er lay motionless on the ground, staring blankly at the sky.
His body was engulfed in intense pain, but for him, this pain was more like a reminder that he was still alive.
He didn't feel any pain, because compared to all the difficulties and injuries he had experienced along the way, this was nothing.
Looking back on those days, Xian Er was filled with emotion. During the battle at Kannabi Bridge, the Iwaya suddenly collapsed, and a huge rock mercilessly crushed half of his body, crippling him.
But even in the face of such a massive disaster, he did not cry.
Instead, he resolutely gouged out his own eyes and gave them to Kakashi Hatake as a gift.
During the Nine-Tails' rampage, in order to realize the Eye of the Moon Plan, he recklessly rushed towards Namikaze Minato.
Despite being thoroughly beaten by his teacher, who pinned him to the ground with the Flying Thunder God: Second Step Technique, he didn't shed a single tear.
His body was already broken and battered; the first time he cried was probably on... the day Lin died.
Originally, he was overjoyed, believing that he could finally break free from that old man's shackles and leave that suffocating mountain.
With the help of White Zetsu, the moment he successfully smashed open the cave, he was extremely excited, like a bird regaining its freedom.
During this time, he experienced a lot and grew a lot.
His strength has been greatly enhanced, and his once-damaged body has been fully restored under Tobi's meticulous treatment.
He felt he was strong enough to descend the mountain and roam the world, fighting alongside his companions and protecting them from harm.
However, fate always likes to play tricks on people. Just as he was descending the mountain full of anticipation, a strange unease lingered in his heart.
Despite his efforts to ignore the feeling, it was like an invisible hand gripping his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.
When he finally arrived at where Rin and Kakashi were, the scene before him struck him like a thunderbolt.
He watched helplessly as Kakashi unleashed the Lightning Blade without hesitation, the dazzling lightning piercing Rin's heart like a bolt of lightning.
At that moment, time seemed to freeze, and the world instantly lost its color.
Obito Uchiha's world completely collapsed, and his soul seemed to have been ripped from his body, leaving only an empty shell.
Kakashi's Lightning Blade not only killed Rin, but also the once innocent boy Obito. In that instant, the hatred in Obito's heart erupted like a volcano, and the seed of revenge was deeply buried in his heart.
After Kakashi was exhausted, he went berserk and used the abilities of Black Zetsu and White Zetsu to kill all the pursuing Mist Ninja without leaving a single one alive.
He walked up to Kakashi, but ultimately couldn't bring himself to do it, nor did he take back the Sharingan. He then walked alone towards the place where Uchiha lived in seclusion.
Having experienced a tremendous sense of loss and intense emotional fluctuations, his Three-Tomoe Sharingan had long since transformed into the Mangekyō Sharingan.
There is no light left in his heart; if there is, it is only for revenge, murder, and the Eye of the Moon.
He wished this world were an illusion; he wanted to create a world where Lin existed.
He had thought that by breaking through the dimensional barrier and coming to this world, he could finally get what he wanted.
However, seeing herself with Lin in this world made her uncomfortable, and she wanted to take Lin back.
At this moment, Xian Er was lying on the ground. In just a short while, he had thought about so much and was beginning to feel confused.
Namikaze Minato's voice suddenly rang out. "Obito, when you're hesitant, don't think about it anymore. Just act according to your conscience, and at least you won't regret it."
Suddenly, Xian Er realized something. He immediately stood up, took a deep breath, and looked at Namikaze Minato.
Namikaze Minato smiled at him but didn't say anything.
Xian Er's eyes welled up with tears; he really was a beast. However, he quickly composed himself. The past couldn't be changed, so dealing with the current situation was the most important thing.
