Sharp Talents Emerge: Obito

After the initial shock, everyone quickly came to their senses.

Isn't it perfect that there are so many things here and the facilities are fully equipped?

Uchiha Obito was the first to jump out, looking at Kakashi Hatake while laughing wildly.

"Kakashi!"

"I told you I was going to challenge you! This time, I'm going to beat you until you're crawling on the floor!"

Uchiha Obito's voice was filled with confidence, which excited Sarutobi Asuma, who didn't quite understand the situation.

He had seen the battle between Kakashi Hatake and Yuki Yuichi, so he knew a bit about their strength, but he knew nothing about this Uchiha boy.

However, members of the Uchiha clan were synonymous with genius at the Ninja Academy, so he assumed Uchiha Obito was the same.

"What a highly anticipated battle." Sarutobi Asuma watched the two with expectation.

Yuki Yuichi listened from the side and gave him a strange look, but didn't say anything.

If you like to imagine things, then keep imagining.

Is Uchiha Obito strong?

Among commoners, Uchiha Obito's strength isn't bad—one could even say it's quite strong—after all, he is an Uchiha.

But among the ninja clans or the descendants of established ninjas, his strength doesn't really measure up.

He belongs to that category of being better than the worst, but worse than the best.

Kakashi Hatake glanced at Uchiha Obito, pondered for a moment, and then nodded.

"Fine."

"But the one getting beaten will be you, Uchiha Obito!"

Under the expectant gaze of Sarutobi Asuma, the two stood in the center of the arena and performed the Seal of Confrontation.

Yuhi Kurenai whispered to Yuki Yuichi, "Yuichi, who do you think will win?"

Yuki Yuichi didn't even turn his head, keeping his eyes fixed on Kakashi Hatake and the other, "It's obviously going to be a draw."

"Eh?"

"But isn't Uchiha Obito a genius of the Uchiha?"

Yuhi Kurenai was confused. Although she wasn't particularly clear on many things, she had heard the rumors that the Uchiha were all geniuses at the Ninja Academy.

Yuki Yuichi turned to look at Yuhi Kurenai and smiled, "Obito's talent is very strong."

"But his talent doesn't lie in ninjutsu or taijutsu."

Yuhi Kurenai was even more confused now, blinking her large eyes curiously as she looked at him, hoping he would explain.

Seeing this, Yuki Yuichi didn't say much, instead reaching out to mess up Yuhi Kurenai's hair again.

"Heh, just go home and ask Uncle Shinku this afternoon, and you'll know."

Compared to ordinary people, the talent of the Uchiha is also reflected in their personality.

The kinder they are, and the more emotionally rich they are, the stronger their talent becomes...

Many Uchiha are like this.

Take Madara Uchiha, for example; he first awakened his eyes when he "broke up" with Hashirama Senju.

One can say Madara Uchiha is powerful and arrogant, but one cannot say he lacks emotion.

Then there are Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi, both of whom were rich in emotion.

Among them, the most representative one is...

Yuki Yuichi cast his gaze toward Uchiha Obito.

He is the most emotionally rich Uchiha, bar none.

At this moment, the two had already begun to move.

Kakashi Hatake held a wooden sword, looking at Uchiha Obito with vigilance.

He hadn't had much contact with Uchiha Obito and didn't know his true strength or talent, so he treated him as an Uchiha genius.

Seeing Kakashi Hatake act this way, Uchiha Obito felt quite smug.

"Prepare yourself, Kakashi!" Uchiha Obito shouted, charging straight toward Kakashi Hatake.

Seeing his movements, Kakashi Hatake frowned slightly; how could these movements be full of openings?

Is he doing this on purpose to show off to me?

Kakashi Hatake thought, a nameless fire rising in his heart.

"Don't look down on me!"

With that, he gripped his wooden sword and charged forward as well.

"It's starting, it's starting!" Sarutobi Asuma held his breath, his eyes fixed on the two without blinking.

"Bang!"

The wooden sword struck Uchiha Obito squarely on the head, instantly raising a prominent, throbbing bump.

Uchiha Obito immediately clutched his head and crouched on the ground in agony.

Kakashi Hatake looked at the wooden sword in his hand, then at the crouching Uchiha Obito, and finally turned his gaze toward Yuki Yuichi, suddenly at a loss for words.

So, you weren't intentionally leaving an opening for me just now?

Sarutobi Asuma, who had been watching intently in hopes of seeing a brilliant duel, felt his expression freeze on his face.

Who am I, where am I, and what am I doing?

He had only seen the two of them charge at each other, expecting a spectacular clash, but in his eyes, Uchiha Obito had caught Kakashi Hatake's wooden sword with his own head.

That's right, it wasn't that Kakashi Hatake had hit his head, but rather that his head had hit the wooden sword...

"Obito..." Yuhi Kurenai, standing beside Yuki Yuichi, witnessed this scene and, gentle as she was, couldn't bear to look.

"Obito, you... I... sigh..." Yuki Yuichi walked over to Uchiha Obito, hesitated for a long time, and finally let out a sigh.

He had expected the kid to lose miserably, but he never imagined he would lose by catching a wooden sword with his head.

This was truly a situation where one wouldn't even know where to begin with the roasting.

Uchiha Obito crouched on the ground clutching his head for a while, then stood up with the large bump still on his forehead.

Seeing everyone looking as if they had something to say but were holding back, he immediately turned bright red and argued, "I just wasn't prepared!"

At this moment, the boy's blushing face spoke louder than anything else.

Yuki Yuichi gave him a meaningful look, and just as Uchiha Obito thought he was being understood, Yuki Yuichi nodded and patted his shoulder, saying, "It's alright."

"We all understand."

Yuki Yuichi's words prompted both Yuhi Kurenai and Sarutobi Asuma to nod in agreement.

"It's okay, Obito, just win it back next time!" Sarutobi Asuma walked up with a smile, slinging an arm around his shoulder. "Never giving up is the creed of a ninja!"

Sarutobi Asuma was trying to comfort him, but to Obito's ears, it only made things feel worse.

"You just wait!"

"I will definitely defeat you!" Uchiha Obito pointed at Kakashi Hatake. "Once I awaken my Sharingan, I'll definitely beat you to a pulp!"

As he spoke, Uchiha Obito pulled a bottle of eye drops from his pocket, tilted his head back, and applied them.

Sarutobi Asuma asked curiously from the side, "Is that a special potion for awakening the Sharingan?"

Before Uchiha Obito could speak, Kakashi Hatake pointed at the bottle, which clearly read 'Eye Drops', and said, "No, those are eye drops."

With that, Kakashi Hatake gave him a deadpan look and mocked, "Give it up, you'll never be better than me in this lifetime."

"I've never heard of anyone awakening their Sharingan with eye drops."

"Trying to awaken the Sharingan with eye drops is nothing short of idiotic!"

He had barely finished speaking when he saw Uchiha Obito looking at Yuki Yuichi with a strange expression.

Yuki Yuichi, meanwhile, walked up to him with a chuckle and slung an arm around his shoulder. "Copy Ninja, are you talking about me?"
