288The most tragic death of ObitoAI Model: gemini-3.0-flashChapter 288: The Most Tragic Death of Obito
[host, please specify the gacha keyword. (-_-) (-_-)]
"Scouting."
Naruto spoke.
Actually, if it were for killing, he could have gotten a long-range curse technique, like the Nail Head Seven Arrows Book or the Soul-Falling Grass Man.
These are all divine powers from the "Investiture of the Gods".
In the Ninja World, they would definitely be existences beyond forbidden jutsu.
But Naruto also had another idea: he wanted to keep track of the Ninja World's situation at all times.
Because according to the plot, people from the Ōtsutsuki Clan would descend.
They are powerful, and it would be very dangerous if they remained hidden.
[Keyword detected, drawing card... Congratulations to the host for obtaining an item card.]
[item card: Clairvoyance]
[Description: Permanent special divine power, from "journey to the west". It allows one to see for a thousand miles, patrol the human world, and leave nothing hidden within sight.]
Naruto couldn't help but show the smile of a Gacha King.
It could be said that whatever he thought of, he got.
With Clairvoyance, "a thousand miles" was just a figure of speech; in reality, it was far beyond that.
After Naruto equipped the item card, he began testing it.
It was almost exactly as he had imagined.
There were two ways to use it.
One was like a radar, with himself as the center, scouting the surroundings.
The downside was that there was too much content, making his head a bit dizzy.
The other was to select a specific target for tracking.
The only drawback was that it consumed more Chakra.
But for Naruto, this was no big deal.
He quickly found Obito's location.
Land of Grass.
The underground base where Uchiha Madara once relied on the Gedo Statue to prolong his life.
According to the location, it should be at Kannabi Bridge.
Obito's place of sorrow.
Naruto was slightly surprised.
But it was also within reason.
For Obito, Kannabi Bridge was an extremely special existence.
Naruto didn't go to find him immediately.
Mainly because Kamui and Izanagi were too convenient, making it easy to escape.
So he had to find someone to help.
Konan.
Uzumaki Menma had prepared so many exploding tags for her; it would be a waste not to use them.
Naruto was waiting for Konan's submission.
Another half-day passed.
[Congratulations to the host for achieving the 'First Herrscher' achievement, obtaining one normal draw and three destiny stones.]
"Hmm?"
Naruto was stunned for a moment; what was this?
Where did the achievement come from?
Just as he was puzzled, he received a chat message from Karen.
They had already returned to Konoha.
Naruto immediately used the Flying Thunder God Technique and appeared before Nagato, Konan, and Karen.
"Junior brother."
Konan took the initiative to greet him.
She had changed from her usual cold demeanor.
Because she had obtained the Perfect Doll Blueprint.
If one were to ask what Konan felt most guilty about, besides Yahiko's death, it was Nagato's terrible physical condition.
Looking back, she was the cause of it.
Back then, to save her from being kidnapped by Hanzou, Nagato forcibly summoned the Gedo Statue, consuming excessive Chakra and life force.
Now that there was a chance to restore Nagato's body, she was naturally very happy.
Naruto nodded and arranged a place for them to stay.
Right in the Hyuga Main House.
Anyway, there were plenty of rooms.
"Senior brother, important members joining the Tianming Organization all have a code name."
Naruto looked at Nagato and said, "I think you can be called Otto, how about it?"
"Sure."
Nagato didn't understand what the code name Otto meant at all.
But he didn't care about these empty titles.
After settling them in, Naruto took Konan to Kannabi Bridge.
"I heard Uzumaki Menma say you have a Ninjutsuspecifically designed to deal with that Uchiha Madara."
"I do, but hasn't Uchiha Madara already been killed by you?"
Konan didn't think Obito could escape her junior brother's clutches.
"He's right under our feet."
Naruto pointed down and said, "In the Uchiha Clan, there is a Ninjutsu called Izanagi. Uchiha Madarawas able to survive Senju Hashirama's hands back then because of this Ninjutsu; it can negate any unfavorable factors, including death."
Konan immediately showed a surprised expression.
This kind of Ninjutsu was truly ridiculous.
"But it has a time limit."
Naruto spoke up, "I brought you here precisely to have you set up your Ninjutsu up here, while I go down. With the two of us working together, Obitowill definitely not escape."
Besides that, he had another method of verification.
Edo Tensei.
As long as Obito didn't die, he would use Clairvoyance to find him again and do it a second time.
Even if he had obtained many Sharingan on the Clan Massacre Night and could perform Izanagimultiple times.
It wasn't infinite.
Actually, Naruto could use Sealing Jutsu.
But he had to avenge Minato and Kushina after all.
"Alright."
Konan agreed without hesitation.
After waiting for three minutes, Naruto entered the underground base.
In the dim corridor, he walked unhurriedly to the hall at the end.
"This place of yours is really terrible."
"Who is it?"
Obito suddenly stood up, "It's you, Uzumaki Naruto. How did you find this place?"
"Speaking of which, you might not know that my teacher is Kakashi, right?"
Naruto didn't answer his question and changed the subject.
Hearing Kakashi, Obito frowned, but since he was wearing a mask, no one noticed.
"Did he tell you about Kannabi Bridge?"
He knew Naruto had the Nine-Tailed and Sage Mode, and his sensory abilities were top-notch.
"In a way."
Naruto smiled, looked at him, and said calmly, "You're still wearing a mask here. Do you really think you're Uchiha Madara?"
"What does it have to do with you?"
Obito's face darkened as he asked.
"Let me think, you probably really want to break away from the identity of Obito, right?"
Naruto said unhurriedly, "The Uchiha Obito of the past, who was weak, unloved by Rin Nohara, impatient, and held pathetic ideals."
"Shut up!"
Obito roared.
"Did I hit a sore spot?"
Naruto didn't care about his attitude at all and continued to stack buffs on him.
"Do you know? Kakashi-sensei often mentions you to me. He said you were the one who helped him overcome the influence of his father's suicide and made him understand the importance of comrades, because those who don't know how to value their comrades are worse than scum."
Obito's heart trembled.
These last words were exactly what Kakashi had said to him when he was pinned under the giant rock back then.
"Now it seems Kakashi-sensei is a good judge of character."
Naruto said with a smile, "You truly are worse than scum."
"You're looking for death!"
Obito was furious, and countless branches sprouted from his hand, stabbing toward Narutolike sharp swords.
"Why are you angry?"
Naruto appeared behind him.
"You could even lay a hand on your master and mistress; why would you be angry because of my words?"
"I'm not angry!"
Obito said in a low voice.
"I know the reason you kill."
Naruto suddenly started laughing, his smile full of irony.
"Because you believe the people you kill will be reborn in the Infinite Tsukuyomi, right? Whether it's Rin Nohara, your teacher, or your clansmen, they can all be resurrected because of your so-called mercy."
Obito didn't refute.
He indeed had such thoughts.
He wanted to create a world of his own to make up for all regrets.
For this, he didn't hesitate to kill everyone.
"How ridiculous."
Naruto said in a disdainful tone, "There is no such Ninjutsu in this world. Infinite Tsukuyomi is essentially still a Genjutsu; it's fake."
"Impossible!"
Obito's anger had reached its peak.
He might have doubted the Infinite Tsukuyomionce, but he couldn't turn back and could only believe in Uchiha Madara.
In the original work, he would have to wait until Zetsu used him to resurrect Uchiha Madara before he suddenly realized he had been deceived.
But Naruto wouldn't let him realize it, or rather, wouldn't let him be redeemed.
"You're wavering."
Naruto acted nonchalantly, but for Obito, it was like bullets piercing his heart.
"If you really fully trusted it, you wouldn't act like this. In your heart, you also understand that such a Ninjutsu is impossible. If it existed, how would it be your turn? Would Zetsu and Uchiha Madara really be so kind-hearted?"
"Hehe, think about it. For the sake of the so-called Infinite Tsukuyomi, you killed your friends, your clansmen, and your teacher. How would Rin Nohara look at you?"
"The one she liked was Uchiha Obito, that clumsy but serious and brave hot-blooded youth who aimed to be Hokage, not the current you."
Naruto raised his voice, looked at him, and questioned: "Do you dare to see her? Uchiha Obito!"
"Shut up! Shut the hell up!"
Obito roared in a breakdown.
He had lost control.
Naruto could clearly see his trembling body, the killing intent in his eyes, and the veins on his arms.
This was a manifestation of extreme anger.
Naruto's words were truly heart-piercing.
Everything Obito cared about, felt guilty for, and the weakness hidden in his heart were all exposed.
"I'm going to kill you! Go to hell!"
Obito rushed over frantically.
He had lost his mind.
He adopted the most primitive Taijutsu attack instead of Wood Release or Fire Release.
Naruto didn't use the Flying Thunder God Technique because it wasn't necessary.
He looked at the approaching shuriken, pulled out Enma, and effortlessly thrust it into Obito's heart.
Blood sprayed.
Obito's face turned pale due to the pain, but he still didn't care and shouted, "Go to hell!"
He used all his strength to aim the shuriken at Naruto's heart and stabbed down.
Only a clang was heard.
Obito felt as if he hadn't stabbed a heart, but a hard diamond.
The counterforce caused his wrist to throb with pain.
"Ah!"
The next moment, he saw a flash of blade light.
The Mangekyo Sharingan was gouged out, and darkness descended.
Naruto looked at the painfully curled-up Obitowithout any pity.
"This strike is for Kakashi."
"This strike is for Rin Nohara."
"This strike is for Minato Namikaze."
"This strike is for Uzumaki Kushina."
Strike after strike.
Blood splattered all over the floor.
Finally, Obito stopped moving.
Naruto took off his mask; his expression actually contained a sense of relief.
"How could it be that simple?"
He turned and went to Otogakure.
"Yakushi Kabuto, come with me."
Naruto spoke straight to the point, "Don't ask why; I don't have time to answer you."
His voice was ice-cold, and the smell of blood permeated the surroundings.
Yakushi Kabuto subconsciously swallowed his saliva and nodded.
Scene shift.
"Is this that Tobi?"
Yakushi Kabuto identified him carefully; if not for that familiar mask, he almost wouldn't have recognized him.
Good heavens!
He didn't know where he had offended Naruto to die such a miserable death?
"Use Edo Tensei to summon him."
Naruto said.
Yakushi Kabuto's body trembled; he was truly infinitely curious in his heart.
Just what did Tobi do?
He wouldn't even let him go after death.
How terrifying!
Yakushi Kabuto didn't dare ask more and hurriedly began the Edo Tensei ritual.
"This is the sacrifice."
Naruto threw out a White Zetsu.
It was one he had captured earlier when he went to see the Jinchuriki.
And Yakushi Kabuto had been present too.
Truly an acquaintance.
Along with the fluctuations of Chakra, a moment later, Obito appeared.
"It seems you've truly died. Bringing you back isn't to torture you, but to give you a message."
Naruto raised an eyebrow, looked at him, and said word by word, "Rin Nohara has seen your actions in the Pure Land, so she's waiting for your explanation."
"No, no, no! Don't!"
Obito's voice trembled as he spoke, "I beg you, don't let me go to the Pure Land. I'll stay here, I can help you!"
"Release."
Naruto spoke calmly.
Yakushi Kabuto immediately released the Edo Tensei, leaving only a dead White Zetsu.
After finishing, he asked cautiously, "Is there anything else you need me to do?"
It was the first time he had seen Naruto in this state; it was truly terrifying to the extreme.
"There is one thing."
Naruto took out the Shinigami Mask and said, "Do you recognize this?"
"I do."
Yakushi Kabuto nodded and said, "It's the Uzumaki Clan's Shinigami Mask."
Following Orochimaru, he naturally knew about the Reaper Death Seal.
And he had seen it with his own eyes.
"You've done many things, and I can let bygones be bygones."
Naruto threw the mask to him and said, "But you must release Minato Namikaze's soul and the other half of the Nine-Tailed sealed within the Shinigami. In return, I'll allow you to serve as the director of the Konoha Orphanage."
Yakushi Kabuto's body shook.
He didn't expect Naruto to actually know about the orphanage.
After a long silence, he nodded and said, "Alright."
"I'll wait for you in Konoha."
Naruto returned to the surface.
"How was it?"
Konan appeared immediately and asked.
"Obito is dead. You can recover the exploding tags."
"Okay."
Konan didn't doubt him and began the recovery work.
After all, they were expensive items.
Leaving them here would be a pure waste.
After waiting for a few minutes, Naruto took Konanback to Konoha.
"By the way, I plan to set out tomorrow to collect materials with Karen."
Konan said at the entrance of the Hyuga Main House.
She couldn't wait to help Nagato replace his body with a healthy one.
"If you need help, you can contact me anytime."
Naruto understood her feelings, so he didn't try to make her stay.
Immediately after, he turned and rushed to Kakashi's small house.
"How do you have time to look for me?"
Kakashi asked with relief.
Because he had already learned about the situation outside.
Originally, he had planned to help.
But Naruto said his stamina was poor and he would only be a hindrance after a few minutes.
If he could beat him, Kakashi would definitely give this kid a good lesson.
"Hokage-sama will handle it."
Naruto shrugged and said, "I brought you a gift."
"Oh? What is it?"
"It's a Mangekyo Sharingan."
Naruto handed him Obito's eye in a glass bottle.
Kakashi was stunned for a moment.
But he shook his head and refused, saying, "One Mangekyo Sharingan already makes it hard for me; I can't bear two."
"It's okay."
Naruto smiled and said, "I've found a mission for you: the Ryūmyaku."
The Ryūmyaku contains Chakra no less than that of a Tailed Beast; it's quite suitable for Kakashi to use as a power bank.
