Kakashi hurriedly jumped over many rooftops, almost brushing against the wisteria canopy above his head and jumped onto the platform in front of the Hokage's office building.
Amid the mocking and warning looks from his former Anbu colleagues, Kakashi jumped down from the platform and walked obediently through the main entrance of the Hokage's office building.
As soon as he entered the Hokage Building, he saw a person's back at the end of the corridor.
"teacher!"
The person in front turned around and saw it was Minato Namikaze.
"Kakashi? You're back too?"
Hatake Kakashi hurried over to the teacher's side. He hesitated to speak, his eyes showing anxiety and expectation, excitement and disbelief: "Is it really... him?"
Namikaze Minato patted Hatake Kakashi on the shoulder and said with a wry smile: "It shouldn't be fake, Shikaku saw it with his own eyes."
Hatake Kakashi was stunned, closed his eyes, and tears almost fell.
It’s Obito. Is it really Obito who has returned?
At this moment, the door of the conference room in front of the master and the disciple opened with a click, and a young man with long black hair and slightly fluffy ends walked out.
He was wearing a dark blue Uchiha clan uniform, black trousers, and a short sword at his waist.
It was Uchiha Obito who was said to have died in the First Ninja World War.
Hatake Kakashi was extremely excited. He subconsciously took a step forward: "Obito!"
The young man heard the sound and turned slightly to look over.
Just one look made Namikaze Minato's heart sink.
The Obito in front of him was completely different from the boy in his memory. His face no longer had the optimistic and sunny smile of the past, but was replaced by a cold and deep look.
The long black frizzy hair made Uchiha Obito look extremely unruly. Half of his face showed special patterns, like wood grain, or a carved mask.
Uchiha Obito looked at Hatake Kakashi. He didn't say anything. His eyes slid over Namikaze Minato who was standing on the side. He just sneered coldly and turned to look at Shizen who followed him out.
"It looks like you're no longer needed."
Shizune was Tsuna's secretary. She was originally in charge of receiving Uchiha Obito, but when she saw Hatake Kakashi and Namikaze Minato, she understood and said, "Then I won't bother you. If there is any news, I will send someone to notify you."
After saying that, Jingyin bowed slightly, took a step back and closed the door.
Uchiha Obito ignored the excited Kakashi, walked forward, passed by his teammates and teachers, and left in the opposite direction.
Kakashi felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured over his head, and he felt numb all over.
Namikaze Minato glanced at Uchiha Obito's back, groaned for a moment, and whispered, "Let's go, Kakashi, Obito should go to the memorial."
Kakashi suddenly realized that Obito had gone to visit Rin.
Thinking of the last teammate of the human team, Kakashi slowly lowered his head, looking extremely dejected.
He subconsciously raised his hands to cover his face: "Teacher... I, I am too embarrassed to see him..."
He did not fulfill his promise to Obito and even killed Rin himself. How could he have the qualifications to see Obito? No wonder Obito looked at him with such cold eyes.
Namikaze Minato could only sigh again: "Kakashi, it's not your fault. As your teacher, I didn't get there in time, which led to Lin's accident. I am also responsible."
He pushed his disciple's back forcefully, "Let's go, let's go to the memorial. Kushina is still waiting for us to bring Obito back for dinner. We have already lost Rin, and we cannot lose Obito."
Kakashi cheered up a little after hearing this. He followed Namikaze Minato out of the Hokage Building and headed for the memorial.
"Oh, teacher." Kakashi, whose brain was a little dull because of hearing that Obito was still alive, finally reacted, "I heard that Obito was working for the Fujisen Cult, and this time he came to negotiate with the village on behalf of the Fujisen Cult. What's going on?"
Namikaze Minato's face was a little solemn. He lowered his voice and said, "I heard Fugaku mention that the Kiri Ninja incident was somewhat related to Obito."
Kakashi was stunned, he used to be an Anbu, although he was recently transferred out and became a Jonin, but his past connections were still there, and he also heard some interesting news.
For example, Uchiha Shisui was forced by his clan to go on a blind date. The young man wanted to treat the Root as his second home. When the clan pressured him so much, he simply wrote a mission scroll with his left hand and a note to accept the mission with his right hand, and left the village under the pretext of doing a mission to avoid the spotlight.
But somehow, Uchiha Shisui actually wandered to the Hidden Mist Village in the Land of Water, and [happened] to encounter the Fourth Mizukage going crazy, and it is said that he even fought against a master.
That expert seemed to be from a ninja organization from the Land of Rain, and Jiraiya almost fell into their hands.
Fortunately, Uchiha Shisui was lucky. The Kirito Ninja seemed to be investigating the ninjas in the territory because the tailed beast was out of control. Uchiha Shisui simply said that he was a messenger of Konoha and got in touch with the Kirito Ninja.
"I heard that Kirishukakushi has selected the Fifth Mizukage. Teacher, are you saying that Shisui's visit to Kirishukakushi was not a simple matter? Obito has been in contact with the Root for a long time? Is he working for the Root?"
"Not necessarily." Namikaze Minato whispered, "Don't forget, in the early days, the Root belonged to Danzo-sama, and the Fourth-sama only had some Uchiha Anbu at his disposal, but she also had a force of her own."
Kakashi got the hint and quickly understood: "The Fujisen Cult's overseas chamber of commerce organization!!"
In the early years of Fujisenkyo, there were no ninjas in the sect, only merchants, believers, ordinary people, and some low-level nobles.
Later, the high priest Oberon came to Konoha in person to establish a blood relationship with the Fourth Hokage, and suddenly became a descendant of the Senju. Theoretically speaking, the Fujisen Cult also became the power of the Fourth Hokage.
Perhaps Fujisenjiao cannot help Tsunayoshi seize power in the village, but its extensive network of contacts and influence are enough to make up for Tsunayoshi's control over foreign intelligence.
It just so happens that Uchiha Obito is an Uchiha. If he faked his death during the war, escaped, joined the Fujisen Cult, and secretly worked for the Fourth Hokage, it seems that both the village and the family can make sense.
Kakashi's mood improved a lot. Even though Obito hated him, he was still the village's ninja. They still had common goals and visions, and that was enough.
Minato Namikaze understood Kakashi's excited look and sighed in his heart, but he was not as optimistic as Kakashi.
Namikaze Minato's position is higher than Kakashi and he received more comprehensive information. Uchiha Obito came here to negotiate with Konoha on behalf of the Fujisen Cult, and the bargaining chip is his surname: Uchiha.
Uchiha Obito told Tsuna without hesitation that he had been controlling the Fourth Mizukage because Nohara Rin died at the hands of the Kirigen Ninja and he went there to take revenge.
If Konoha cannot accept his proposal, Uchiha Obito will immediately make the matter public, making Konoha and the Kirito Ninja become mortal enemies.
Even if Konoha announced to the outside world that Uchiha Obito was a traitor, the other four ninja villages would probably not believe that secretly controlling the shadow of a village was a personal decision made by Uchiha Obito and had nothing to do with Konoha Village.
Unless Konoha Village abandons the Uchiha clan and kills all of them.
But is this possible?
...emmm, it cannot be said, it cannot be said.
In other words, Uchiha Obito was actually trying to control Konoha Village to achieve his personal goals.
Minato Namikaze is different from Kakashi. Kakashi simply wants to see his old partners again, but Minato Namikaze wants to ask Obito what he wants to do.
The memorial is a place to commemorate the ninjas who died fighting for Konoha. It is cleaned all year round and people come here from time to time to pay tribute to the dead. Overall it looks clean and quiet.
Surrounded by woods, the resting people are sleeping quietly among the trees. Occasionally, a bird flies across the sky, bringing a little relaxation and vitality to the frozen atmosphere.
Uchiha Obito stood quietly in front of Nohara Rin's tombstone. He placed a bunch of light pink lilies in his hand in front of Nohara Rin's tombstone. His eyes looked a little empty, as if he was lost in his memories.
At this moment, his arrogance and perverseness disappeared, and he seemed to have turned back into the pure and clean young man he once was.
Kakashi and Minato Namikaze stood a few steps behind, and no one spoke for a while.
After a long time, Kakashi said softly: "Obito, I'm sorry, I broke my promise."
The originally gentle breeze suddenly accelerated, and the wind blew up. Countless green grasses swirled into the sky, mixing with the lavender petals of the wisteria flowers falling from the canopy, making people's vision become chaotic and mottled in an instant.
"…Kakashi, you are a piece of shit."
Uchiha Obito finally came back to his senses. He said calmly: "Minato teacher, you are always one step short of catching up."
"It is my own stupidity to hand over the most important thing to others. I hate you, I hate Konoha, I hate this world, but if it is just hatred, I will never come back."
Kakashi said hurriedly: "Obito, it's all my fault. You can hate me, even kill me, but why do you hate the village?"
Namikaze Minato frowned slightly, he pressed Kakashi's shoulders and whispered: "You won't come back? What does that mean? Obito, let's not talk about Rin in advance. The village is your home, your people are also in the village, why won't you come back?"
Hearing the questions from his former teachers and partners, Uchiha Obito raised his head slightly, and his long black frizzy hair, which was very similar to Uchiha Madara's, swayed slightly.
"The village..."
In an instant, the words that Uchiha Madara once said emerged in Uchiha Obito's mind.
——Reality is full of disappointments, misery and loneliness. Everything in this world is the same.
——Where there is light, there is darkness. Where there is a winner, there must also be a loser. The selfish will to protect peace will lead to war.
——In order to protect love, hatred will arise. This is a cause and effect relationship and cannot be separated.
As long as the world remains unchanged, countless Lins will continue to die, and there will be no point in resurrecting Lin using the Reincarnation Technique.
Therefore, Uchiha Madara wanted to create a new world, and for this he needed a successor who would inherit his will and help him perform the Infinite Moon Reading.
And Uchiha Madara chose Uchiha Obito.
The so-called Infinite Moon Reading means becoming the Ten-Tails Jinchūriki, performing the Infinite Moon Reading, and creating a world where no one is hurt, everyone's wishes come true, and their hearts are fulfilled.
In this world, there will be no distinction between ninja villages, no selfishness, no war and killing. From now on, the cause and effect fate will be completely cut off, allowing everyone to be happy.
Uchiha Obito admitted that he was really moved and approved of Madara's path at that time. After Uchiha Madara's death, Uchiha Obito firmly walked on this dark path.
But not long after, Obito met Oberon.
To be exact, it was Oberon who came to us on his own initiative.
When Oberon first came to this world, he preached among ordinary people, but this attracted the attention of a man with the Sharingan, so he turned to Tsunade for support.
After he solved the problem of backers and hired Konoha ninjas to guard the village where his believers were, Oberon began to track down the people who had come to take advantage of him.
Oberon followed him to the Land of Rain and accidentally saw Uzumaki Nagato.
At that time, Uzumaki Nagato was still a young man. He, Konan and Yahiko tried to gather like-minded partners in the Rain Country, and established a ninja organization called Akatsuki.
When Oberon saw the lavender Rinnegan in Uzumaki Nagato's eye sockets, he was immediately shocked. Wow! Circle eyes with magatama! They are very similar to Izawa Sugi's eyes!
So Oberon began to patiently observe Uzumaki Nagato's daily life.
Then he found that not only was he observing Uzumaki Nagato, but there was also a white, plant-like creature staring at Uzumaki Nagato.
Isn't this just following the clues and leading directly to Uchiha Madara's lair?
Oberon recognized Uchiha Madara. After all, he had seen the short film about Izawa Sugi's resume and remembered that Uchiha Madara was an elder whom Izawa Sugi trusted and respected very much.
Although this is a different world and the old man Madara in front of him should have nothing to do with Izawa Sugi, Oberon still retreated and deliberately avoided the base of old man Madara.
Oberon thought, I am such a good brother. For the sake of my younger brother, I will let go of the fact that the Fujixian Sect was being extorted.
...I'm not worried that this old man will use circle eyes to plant a sacred tree!
Well, mainly because Oberon felt that the old man looked quite old and still lived in a dark and damp cave. He probably didn't have many years left to live.
And he had just made contact with Tsuna, and needed to manage the development of the Konohagakure, so he couldn't take care of Grandpa Madara's affairs for the time being, so he put it aside for the time being.
This dragged on until the end of the First Ninja World War.
When Oberon found time to run to the cave to take another look, he was surprised to find that Uchiha Madara had died. Now the person who replaced Uchiha Madara was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old!
So what are you waiting for?
Oberon immediately used the art of dream-talking and figured out Uchiha Obito's ideals and goals in his dream.
"Let the whole world dream? I think your dream is neither realistic nor reliable."
Good guy, Oberon finally understood the reason why Ize Shan caused the Fairy Kingdom to fall into infinite monthly reading. It turns out that it was you, the sixth one, who set the example first!
Oberon's eyes rolled. "It's like this. Actually, our Tengxian Sect has records that the Purple Teng Immortal once performed the Infinite Moon Reading, but unfortunately, he failed!"
Uchiha Obito was shocked: "Oh? Why did you fail?"
Oberon generously told Uchiha Obito in the form of a dream about how Izawa Sugi transformed into a deer man and performed the Infinite Tsukuni Obito, but was unfortunately critically attacked by the Alien God.
[Izawa Sugi: ???]
Oberon pointed at the alien god that emerged from the sacred tree and swore, "The sacred tree is a scam. When you cast the Infinite Moon Reading, an alien god will emerge and take away everything from you!"
Uchiha Obito was stunned and confused on the spot.
Oberon didn't know that what he said was actually the truth. Seeing that Uchiha Obito really believed it, he was very happy and continued to deceive Uchiha Obito: "I have a solution that is not a solution. Listen to it first, and then do it if you think it is good."
Uchiha Obito slowly looked at Oberon.
Oberon said: "Establish a new country and, as the head of the Observer State Church, call on all countries in the world to unite and establish a coordination organization, which can be called the United Nations."
Oberon directly copied the world situation composed of ordinary people that he learned when he developed Fujisen Cult in the world of magic.
"And you become the chief executive of the United Nations, dedicated to maintaining international peace and security, how about that?"
