Chapter 299 It's you, Obito!
under night.
Although Konoha Village has a strong defense, it is all outward-facing. As an elite ninja in the village, Kakashi could see it without anyone stopping him.
Chiyo quickly followed Kakashi and easily left Konoha Village.
To his surprise, although Hiruko was remotely controlling Kakashi, Kakashi did not go very far.
They even came to a stop just after leaving the forest area of Konoha.
A figure emerged from the woods opposite—Obito, wearing a mask.
Chiyo didn't get too close to Kakashi, and Obito didn't notice him either.
Upon seeing him appear, Chiyo was certain that Hiruko and Obito were together.
When Obito came to take Kakashi's eyes, was it for his own use or to give to Hiruzen?
Chiyo turned these thoughts aside and watched Obito approach Kakashi.
I'm planning to take down Obito when he materializes.
But just as Obito walked up to Kakashi, Kakashi's blank eyes flashed with an astonishing light the instant he saw Obito.
A flash of light slashed across Obito's neck.
Kakashi also jumped backward several times, getting out of Obito's attack range.
Obito paused for a moment and touched his neck.
Although he was in a ethereal state just now, the bone-chilling cold still seemed to sting him.
Or perhaps Kakashi acted without hesitation, stinging him.
That Hiruko is really useless; he actually managed to wake Kakashi up.
In the distant Mount Sumeru, Hiruko, who was controlling Kakashi, trembled, and the talisman shattered.
He looked astonished: "How did Kakashi break free of the Puppet Curse on his own?"
Hiruko looked towards Konoha, worried about whether the Sharingan could be brought back.
……
Kakashi, who had jumped away, was covered in a cold sweat. He didn't even know when he had been hit by the Puppet Curse.
Fortunately, I learned how to concentrate from my father's notes, and I was able to snap out of it when I saw the masked man.
Obito let out a cold laugh:
"So what if you've come to your senses? Do you think you can escape?"
However, Kakashi's reaction on the other side greatly surprised him.
"It's you, Obito." Kakashi's hands hung at his sides, his eyes calm and unwavering as he stared at Obito.
Kakashi had imagined countless times that he would meet Obito again, and he thought he would be very excited, but he wasn't.
Obito hadn't expected that Kakashi seemed to have already recognized his identity.
He was stunned for a moment, unsure whether to admit that he was Obito.
Kakashi seemed to know what he was thinking, and he said confidently:
Whether you admit it or not, it doesn't matter, I know it's you.
On the black market, Madara Uchiha's tiger skin had long been torn to shreds by the Akatsuki organization.
In this situation, Obito slowly removed his mask.
Kakashi's gaze lingered only on Obito's wrinkled half-face for a moment.
There wasn't much of an expression on his face.
Seeing Kakashi's expression, Obito said in a deep voice, "Why aren't you surprised?"
Kakashi calmly looked at Obito: "Why should I be surprised? Chiyo already told me your identity."
"We're enemies now. What, do you still want to reminisce?"
Kakashi's voice wasn't loud, but it was like a sharp knife piercing Obito's heart.
Suddenly, Obito felt a surge of anger and charged towards Kakashi.
A black rod appeared in his hand, which he swung at Kakashi.
Kakashi stepped back, and his short sword clashed with Obito's, unexpectedly producing a crisp clanging sound.
Obito didn't use Hollowfication; instead, he directly clashed with Kakashi using taijutsu.
His expression was ferocious, and his eyes were filled with rage.
Kakashi, however, remained calm and methodically received all of Obito's attacks.
Chiyo was originally prepared to take action directly, but he keenly sensed that Kakashi's breathing was getting slower and the sword light was getting faster.
He watched the two fight with interest and stopped his prepared attack.
It seems Kakashi is undergoing a transformation.
Kakashi's short sword dance was impenetrable, but Obito, without his Hollowfication ability, found himself at a disadvantage.
He looked at Kakashi with utter disbelief.
Kakashi showed him no mercy, no remorse, nothing at all.
All that's left is focus.
The two of them were making a clanging noise, but Kakashi's eyes were incredibly bright.
With a crisp clang, the black rod in Obito's hand flew high into the air.
With the next strike, Kakashi's blade was aimed straight for Obito's neck.
Obito subconsciously used Hollowfication.
Kakashi's blade pierced through Obito's head.
Kakashi, having missed his target, twisted his body, flipped to the side, and left Obito's side.
He looked at Obito with an icy expression:
"Obito, you used the Nine-Tails to cause chaos and killed your teacher and his wife. Today I will bring you before Rin to repent!"
Obito's eyes were filled with disbelief and rage:
"How dare you still have the nerve to use Tilin's name!"
"Why don't you feel any remorse at all!"
A flicker of pain crossed Kakashi's eyes, but his expression remained remarkably calm.
"Why should I feel guilty!? Did I want to kill Lin?"
"You don't know, back then..."
"shut up!"
Obito's eyes glowed red, and the ferocity within them seemed to be ready to devour anyone who might harm him.
"If you think I did these things because of you and Lin, then you are very wrong."
"I know everything."
"Lin rushed towards your Raichite on her own; she chose death herself."
"At that time, Rin was captured by Kirigakure and forced to become the Three-Tails Jinchuriki."
"You successfully rescued Lin and brought her out, but that was actually part of the Mist Shadow Operation Plan."
"Their goal is merely to feign pursuit and force you back to Konoha."
"Once Rin returns to Konoha, Kirigakure forces the Three-Tails within her to go berserk."
"The objective is to attack Konoha."
“Lin knew their purpose very well, so she used the Raiche you fired at the enemy.”
"He committed suicide."
"I am determined to die at the hands of the person I love most, all for the sake of protecting Konoha."
"No matter what you say, to me..."
"You who didn't protect Lin are imposters. Deep down, Lin shouldn't have died."
"Therefore, the deceased Lin was also an imposter."
"Lin is only truly real when she is alive."
Unexpectedly, Kakashi was not affected; instead, he roared angrily:
"Since you knew that Lin committed suicide, why did you launch the Nine-Tailed Fox attack?"
"Why did you have to kill your teacher and his wife?!"
"Hahahaha..." Obito laughed maniacally:
"Because the root cause of all this tragedy is the ninja system, the village, and the ninjas!"
"What truly makes me despair is the world itself."
"It's this hypocritical world!"
“All that was left of me was sorrow, so I abandoned everything: the Uchiha clan, the Fourth Hokage, Kushina…”
"I want to change the world!"
