Obito narrowed his eyes at the Sharingan in Yue's hand and said, "A replica? What's the point?"
Seeing that Obito had recognized the origin of the Sharingan in his hand, Yue raised his brows in surprise. "Not bad, you can actually tell that much. That's right. The Sharingan replicated from your cells only has the empty shell of a Three-Tomoe, but it's enough to activate that forbidden technique of you Uchiha—Izanami."
"That's not right, is it? The forbidden technique costs eye power, not the eye itself. That replica of yours doesn't have any eye power inside. If I use my eye, I'll still go blind. What's the point of swapping it in?"
Yue nodded in satisfaction. His pointers had not gone to waste. Obito did not simply accept whatever he said as fact, but had begun thinking for himself. That was very good.
At the very least, Yue would not have to worry too much when cooperating with him. "Doesn't your Mangekyo Sharingan ability have Izanagi? After using it, just use Izanagi to alter the result. You don't need a full recovery, only a little, and the Hashirama Cells will take over from there. How about it?"
Obito's gaze flickered uncertainly beneath the mask. He was considering whether this was feasible.
Over the years, with Yue's help, he had crammed in a great deal of knowledge. Although using it for research would be difficult, analyzing the feasibility of this plan was not a problem at all.
After a long while, Obito snatched the Sharingan from Yue's hand and turned to leave.
"I understand. Make your preparations as well. Let me see the results of your research."
"Don't worry. I won't disappoint you." The corner of Yue's mouth curved slightly. He was very satisfied with the aptitude Obito had shown.
