Meeting Obito Again

Unlike Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi wasn't a bit dim-witted.

Having received a good family education, Kurenai Yuhi understands the importance of repaying kindness. She knows that sometimes, it is necessary to repay the kindness shown to one's family.

But what could she possibly do, and what could she possibly give back to Yang Xing? This troubled Kurenai Yuhi somewhat.

Regardless of the circumstances, she should thank Yang Xing. Not counting the previous incidents, this younger brother had saved her several times, and she should properly express her gratitude.

But now that they're looking for Yang Xing, they suddenly discover that Yang Xing, who was always there, has suddenly disappeared.

They left without leaving a trace, making it impossible for Kurenai Yuhi to find them.

Where did Yang Xing go?

"That guy... oh, right, I just noticed he went over there." Asuma calmly pointed to a spot not far away. Although he really wanted to go, he understood his own strength, and coupled with his guilt over what had happened earlier, Asuma didn't want to invite trouble.

Upon hearing Asuma's words, Kurenai Yuhi ran towards the edge of the nearby woods.

The forest remained unchanged; the war, now over, had not caused much damage to this forest in the Land of Fire.

On the contrary, the sunlight shining through the leaves created a refreshing and bright feeling.

It evokes a beautiful feeling, like the sky after rain, where everything shines brightly.

As a girl, Kurenai Yuhi was indeed a very beautiful thing. Such a beautiful scene could attract her attention and make her slow down to admire the beauty of the forest.

But then she saw someone ahead and stopped, a look of surprise on her pretty face.

"Yang..." He stopped midway through his sentence, noticing that there was another person, Kurenai Yuhi, in front of Yang Xing. She had stopped and was hiding under a large tree, quietly watching without making a sound.

That person was very strange, but that's not the point.

What struck Kurenai Yuhi as particularly unusual was Yang Xing's expression. Why did her younger brother have such an expression? So serious, so solemn, with a hint of gravity, it was completely unlike his usual personality.

Yang Xing's younger brother really has another side.

This sight left Kurenai Yuhi stunned, unable to take another step forward, her heart pounding.

"I didn't expect you to come here?" Yang Xing's tone was heavy. He hadn't noticed anyone following him, and this person was actually an old acquaintance of his.

The person behind the spiral mask couldn't see their face, but the aura they exuded made Yang Xing realize that this was indeed Obito.

Obito, whom we haven't seen for a few days, has not only been resurrected, but is also stronger than before.

"Should I call you Madara or Obito?" Yang Xing frowned, and seeing that the other party didn't speak, he couldn't help but call out, "Hey, at least say one sentence?"

That jump, and you still have to get over it.

"Don't come any closer." The Masked Obito's voice, carrying a hint of coldness, exuded an aura that made Yang Xing sense danger.

He stopped abruptly, his brow furrowed.

"I don't understand, why did Madara let you out? Why are you here?"

"I asked him for a favor, and I also promised him something, so he sent me here." Masked Obito voice trembled slightly. "To see someone one last time."

"Oh?" Yang Xing sighed softly, his tone calmer. "Obito, you've really changed."

"Hmm." Obito raised his hands, looking at them, his voice trembling slightly. "Because without my knowledge, I discovered that my strength is terrifying."

"The Three Sharingan Tomoe Sharingan must have given you a lot, right?"

Obito didn't turn around, but instead looked up and asked directly, "Kakashi, how is he?"

"Very good, your strength has increased, at least not worse than your current level."

"Is that so?" Obito's face was expressionless, but his calm demeanor clearly made Yang Xing understand that this guy had indeed changed a bit.

"Kakashi, I won't forgive him. One day, I'll beat him up." However, the voice muttering to itself suggested that the hatred for Kakashi wasn't that great.

Hearing Obito's words, Yang Xing became a little puzzled. "Aren't you going back to Konoha?"

"I can't go back. He only gave me this one chance, and besides, I've been Cursed Seal, so there's no way I can go back. He's definitely watching me from somewhere right now." Obito's words were calm, but as he spoke, he looked up and glanced around, revealing the fear in his eyes.

That was the fear that Ban instilled in him.

"Then why did you take such a risk?" Yang Xing was confused; he truly didn't understand what this guy in front of him was thinking.

And what is that Ban thinking? These two are the hardest guys for him to understand.

"Boss, it's because of you." Obito's words still surprised Yang Xing a little. "I only understand now how powerful you are, boss. Even the Third Hokage Tsuchikage wasn't your match. Sure enough, from the beginning, boss understood that the agreement was one you would completely win."

Yang Xing frowned. Obito's expression was a little off. Was this kid's personality starting to mature because of his intervention?

"That's all I have to say," Obito said, and then turned to leave.

This made Yang Xing frown, and he finally couldn't help but yell at the surrounding trees, "Hey, what the hell are you up to? I know you're here, you better get out here, don't hide!"

Silence reigned all around.

After a long while, the hidden Ban finally emerged, his calm demeanor something only someone who had lived for hundreds of years could possess.

"Kid, I can tell you something now." Madara's voice was a little hoarse, and had a sinister feel to it. "You ruined my plans, so I'm going to change them."

"Plan changed?"

Ban is very smart. As such a big boss, he couldn't possibly be like other fools. Moreover, having lived for so long, this guy is a shrewd person, and his mind couldn't be rigid.

Madara should understand that Obito no longer sees Rin Nohara as important as before.

After all, Rin Nohara was already one of his people and liked him, so Obito couldn't possibly be unaware of it. If he continued to try to change Obito by manipulating Rin, it would be neither possible nor realistic.

In other words, this guy wants to change his target.

So, who did Obito value most, or rather, who was the one who could change Obito's entire life?

The answer is obvious.

"Haha, I'd really like to see what you're planning to do?" Yang Xing laughed, pointing at Ban, his laughter tinged with disdain. "Let me see your abilities and wisdom. I'm curious to know who will have the last laugh."

"Kid, this is the only time you can laugh."

Yang Xing pursed her lips, turned and left, not wanting to talk any further.

Given that he currently lacks the ability to hold Madara back, and with Obito still in this guy's hands, this treacherous individual will undoubtedly use Obito as a shield. If he rushes forward, it will certainly create a very awkward situation.

Since we can't fight now, we might as well leave decisively and save ourselves the trouble of arguing.
