Konoha

Outside the operating room of Konoha Hospital.

Naraku, who rushed over, looked at Kakashi, who was determined to return the eyes to Obito, with a serious expression, and finally asked to confirm:

"Are you sure, Kakashi?"

"Ah, now that Obito is back, I should return the Sharingan to him. It was a Jonin gift that Obito gave me, and I really don't like it at all."

Although Kakashi's face was covered by a mask, his right eye, which was visible, curved like a crescent moon. He continued in a relaxed tone:

"Well, Obito has just become Jonin. I don't know what gift to give Obito this time, but giving him Sharingan Obito probably suit him very well."

Kakashi looked languid, and after speaking, he even made a youthful gesture like Obito.

Obito's return seems to have helped Kakashi emerge from his gloom, and his cold demeanor has softened to some extent.

"Kakashi, this is not our power; it is what limits you. Originally, because of your best friend's entrustment, you had to use it to help your best friend continue to watch over this world."

Now that your best friend is back... I admire your decision.

Hatake Sakumo was pleased with Kakashi's decision. As one of Konoha's top ninjas, he had the insight to notice the advantages and disadvantages of Kakashi's eyes.

"The eye transplant surgery isn't complicated. Nohara Rin can continue to handle it; there's no need to worry."

Hospital director Tsunade explained the difficulty of the surgery, stating that Nohara Rin was skilled enough and experienced.

Namikaze Minato and Kushina both looked worried, but neither of them commented on Kakashi's decision.

Obito arriving at Konoha Hospital from Yakiniku Q, Obito remained silent with his head down. Obito unsure how to handle the situation, feeling somewhat lost and bewildered.

Upon hearing these words and seeing Kakashi's determination, Naraku said helplessly in a deep voice:

"In that case, alright! Kakashi, we respect your decision."

After Naraku finished speaking, he glanced at Obito beside him and said softly:

"Obito, the Sharingan is the Kekkei Genkai of the Uchiha. Without the Uchiha bloodline, the Sharingan is actually a burden for Kakashi, constantly draining his Chakra."

Naraku explained the Sharingan in a rather moderate manner, essentially agreeing with Kakashi's opinion with reluctance.

Naraku didn't want Kakashi to return the Sharingan to Obito.

This Kamui Sharingan, if it were in Kakashi's possession, could be taken away by Naraku at any time if he needed it. But in Obito's possession, it's not something that can be taken away so easily.

Although Obito had turned over a new leaf, Naraku still believed that it would be safest to observe him for a while longer.

Because Uchiha Obito possesses a demonic heart, it's possible that his thoughts could change and become distorted again due to other events, making him an Uchiha elite who requires close attention.

The power of Kamui Sharingan is something that only Obito and himself know; others probably wouldn't understand it.

However, Naraku knew in his heart that Obito wouldn't scheme to take this Sharingan; otherwise, he would have taken it long ago.

Furthermore, Obito a unique talent; the First Hokage Cells, which had an extremely high mortality rate, were perfectly inherited by Obito, who was still a loser at the time. This allowed the ultimate Yin Release Chakra spiritual power of the Mangekyō Sharingan to be of no burden to Obito's body.

Because Naraku absorbed the Uzumaki Akayuki, he mastered the First Hokage's Wood Release and the power of the Uzumaki, gaining a profound understanding of the Yang Power that represents the body's energy.

The First Hokage Cells grant ultimate physical strength. This physical strength represents the Yang Power in the Yin-Yang Shinobi World. With the power of the First Hokage Cells, Yin and Yang are in harmony, All Things in Nature. The negative effects of the Mangekyō Sharingan on the body are mitigated, and the eyes will never go blind.

"Then, let's begin the surgery."

Nohara Rin glanced at the two of them and spoke softly. Then she pulled them into the operating room.

Nohara Rin couldn't influence their decision, so she could only do her best to perform the surgery for them.

"With Rin in charge of the surgery, there won't be any problems. Besides, Konoha Hospital has spare eyes, so everyone doesn't need to worry."

Tsunade highly approves of Rin from the Medical Department, reassuring everyone present that there's no need to worry.

Namikaze Minato and Kushina sighed slightly upon hearing Tsunade's words. Losing an eye wouldn't necessarily prevent them from being ninjas, but it would certainly affect their strength.

If Konoha Hospital has spare eyes, then Kakashi and Obito will both shine.

Outside the operating room were the Fourth Hokage, Uchiha Nara; Namikaze Minato; Hatake Sakumo; Uzumaki Kushina; Tsunade —almost all pillars of Konoha.

The series of events involving the Team Minato were keeping these people on edge.

"I understand your concerns about the Sharingan being out there, Fourth Hokage. I'm happy that Kakashi has such determination."

Kakashi's father, White Fang Sakumo, spoke apologetically to Naraku beside him in a soft voice.

"No, Sakumo, I have never been worried. Kakashi is a ninja with the Will of Fire, and the future of Konoha needs Kakashi to carry on the legacy. Moreover, it was Obito's dying wish, and it should be respected."

"I should be the one apologizing for subjecting Kakashi to the exploitation of the Sharingan."

Naraku gentle and spoke softly.

"Fourth Hokage, Konoha has entrusted its future to you. I believe it will be a glorious chapter in Konoha's history."

At this moment, Sakumo felt a deep respect and admiration for Naraku's gentle and refined manner.

Tsunade looked at Tsunade's expression with disdain, giving her a look that said, "You're still pretending, kid."

Naraku stunned by Sakumo's heartfelt admiration for only a couple of seconds before noticing Tsunade's gaze. He pursed his lips, somewhat speechless.

After chatting and waiting outside for a while, the eye transplant surgery in the operating room was over.

Nohara Rin pulled Kakashi and Obito out.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the surgery was a complete success."

Nohara Rin reported gently to the people in the room.

"That's good, Lin."

Tsunade didn't hold back in praising Rin from the Medical Department.

"Kakashi, Obito, how are you two feeling?"

Kushina looked at the two of them with a worried expression.

"I'm fine, I'm alright."

Kakashi's usual listless expression seemed to have lessened, Naraku felt that Kakashi seemed to have regained some radiance, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.

"Kushina- neechan, with Rin performing the surgery for us, of course everything will be fine."

Obito had boundless trust in Rin.

"In that case, I'm relieved. I'm leaving."

Naraku waved his hand and said something, then walked towards the Konoha Hospital Director's Office.

Tsunade waved back and left alongside Naraku.

"Kakashi, come with me."

Hatake Sakumo gave a shout and turned to leave.

"Sorry, I'll come later!"

Kakashi, hearing his father's call, waved to the group and turned to leave.

"I have to go now. If you need anything, come find me at the Hokage Building."

"I have to go back to take care of Naruto. We'll have Yakiniku Q again tomorrow. This is my way of congratulating you on your reunion as your older sister! It's not Minato paying the bill~"

Seeing that everything was normal, Namikaze Minato was relieved. There were still many matters to be dealt with at the Hokage Building, so after giving his instructions, he turned and left.

Kushina had to take care of the child. Seeing that things were almost settled, she finished arranging the dinner party for tomorrow, waved goodbye, and left with Minato.

Only Nohara Rin and Obito remained in the arena.

"Um, Lin..."

Obito this rare opportunity, Obito's cheeks flushed red. He rubbed his hands together, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back.

"Obito, congratulations on becoming Jonin. I'll prepare a gift you'll like."

Nohara Rin has a gentle face, like a female version of Namikaze Minato, and always brings warmth to people.

"Ha, a gift? I have a gift? Hahaha, I knew you were the best, Lin."

When Obito heard that Rin would prepare a gift he liked, he couldn't help but smile, swallowing back what he was about to say.

After leaving Konoha Hospital with Kakashi, Hatake Sakumo walked along a quiet path.

"Kakashi, I can feel that your Chakra is no longer disappearing into thin air. The Sharingan limited your ninja abilities, and I am truly proud of you for making this decision."

Hatake Sakumo remained calm. As a father and son, he didn't know what to say, simply pointing out Kakashi's current condition.

"Those are Obito's eyes. I want to help him continue to see this world."

But now that Obito is back, it's better to let him see the world for himself.

After all, that's Obito... I believe Obito will bring peace to Konoha, and even to this world..."

Kakashi is known as a genius, and he respects no one but the underdog Obito.

Obito's will is that of an era.

"That child, indeed, is just as you said."
