  ...

  When the ripples of space-time reappeared, Uchiha Obito's battered figure emerged beh the Konoha Memorial Mo.

  Staggering, he followed the route in his memory and found a certain grave.

  "Rin..."

  Gazing at the young girl's photo attached to the tombstone-and beside Rin's tombstohere was anraved with his own name...

  Obito felt a moment of daze.

  He had deliberately left a mark at the Konoha Memorial Mo so that when his longing became unbearable, he could sneak back to take a look.

  Even though he was seriously injured, even if he was being hunted by all of Konoha, for Obito, nothing was more important thaly ing to see Rin one more time.

  He had left ten Kamui coordinates around the Konoha forest area. As long as he teleported to any of these spots, once Kamui's cooldown ended, he could teleport to even more distant pces.

  No matter how Konoha's ninjas searched, they couldn't capture him.

  The Konoha Memorial Mo was far from the Hokage Rock, far from where he po unleash the "ails' Attack." He would release the ails beh the Hokage Rock, destroying Konoha uhe gaze of the Fourth Hokage... But here, Rin would not be disturbed.

  Obito's haly touched Rin Nohara's portrait:

  "I no longer care about this world filled with despair."

  "Rin, wait for me. Soon, I will create a world with only you-a world of absolute peace..."

  "Bck Elbow: Death Star!"

  Just as Obito was immersed in his sorrow, a Bck Fsh like a meteor crossed the space-time distand appeared before him.

  Obito only saw a Bck Fsh fsh before his eyes, and a heavy elbow strike smashed into his mask. His body flew backward, crashing into the trunk of an aree in Konoha.

  "Ugh-"

  Cracks appeared on the hard mask, and through the gaps, one could glimpse the ravine-like wrinkles on half of Obito's face.

  White blood slowly oozed from the er of his mouth.

  "Damn it! Gojo Kaigetsu, you..."

  "Bck Elbow!"

  Obito was about to utter some harsh words, but Gojo Kaigetsu didn't py by any rules. Without a word, he unched another lethal elbow strike toward Obito's forehead.

  'He didn't reize me at all...'

  'His earlier performan the house was all an act. That kunai throwing was just a ruse. If I get hit by that taijutsu teique a few more times head-on, it could really kill me.'

  The bck fsh, shining alongside the Yellow Fsh, made Obito extremely wary.

  He didn't have time to think further and quickly activated Kamui to make his body intangible, narrowly avoiding Gojo Kaigetsu's elbow strike.

  After a brief exge, Obito shook his dizzy head, pushed off with his feet, and put some safe distaween himself and Gojo Kaigetsu.

  "Tsk~ Your eyes are really useful."

  "Obitoo~"

  Gojo Kaigetsu straightened up, marveling at the scary abilities of the Mangekyō Sharingan.

  Even at such cle, even after taking a Rasengan and being seriously injured, Obito could still activate intangibility to avoid his fatal strike.

  And this was just with a single Kamui.

  If he were to retrieve the eye from Kakashi... This guy is scary and must not be allowed to live.

  "Obito-!"

  Uchiha Obito's body stiffened abruptly. He subsciously raised his hand to his mask, realizing that although it had cracks, it was still firmly on his face.

  He had deliberately altered his voice; his height had increased dramatically pared to a year ago. His body was ed in bandages, his face covered by a mask, and the ninjutsu he used had nothing to do with Konoha...

  At most, the Sharingan was reized, but that could only firm he was from the Uchiha . In Konoha's records, Uchiha Obito was a deceased 14-year-old.

  Even so, Gojo Kaigetsu reized him?

  That's how Obito was.

  When people couldn't see his true face, he believed he held no p their hearts, so he could sever his past bonds without hesitation.

  But being casually called by his real name like this, Obito began to panic. He had goo great lengths to disguise himself just to hide his identity.

  It was like a child arguing with someone online and suddenly being tracked down in real life.

  Obito subsciously retorted, "Heh... Obito? Who's that?"

  "Stop pretending, Uchiha Obito. It's just you and me here; your little disguise isn't enough in front of me."

  Whether or not he could take down Uchiha Obito today, pnting a seed of fear in his heart would be good.

  'Gojo Kaigetsu... He discovered my identity! How did he do it?!'

  "How... did you know?" Obito dropped his voice disguise but didn't remove his mask. His words were filled with apprehension.

  He realized he couldn't uand Gojo Kaigetsu anymore.

  Before setting out, Bck Zetsu had emphasized that Gojo Kaigetsu was hiding his strength. Initially, Obito didn't care, but now... it seemed he was hiding far too much.

  "How did I know? Well, that's part of my personal intelligework, Obito. It's a secret I 't share."

  Gojo Kaigetsu shook his head:

  "Uchiha Obito, now I give you two choices."

  "Either, as Obito whose name is carved oombstone, you peacefully die here, being a wandering soul in the ninja world. Or, you be killed as the Akatsuki's 'Uchiha Madara' or 'Tobi.'"

  "The Choice Is Yours."

  Gojo Kaigetsu directly revealed his trump card, shog Obito immensely.

  He couldn't accept the dangerous Uchiha Obito into the vilge at this stage. Who knows when he might be influenced by Bck Zetsu again to take revenge on Konoha.

  Even if there was a one-ihousand ce, Gojo Kaigetsu wouldn't accept it.

  People with serious criminal records couldn't receive his fiveness even after serving their sentences.

  Once a severe threat to Konoha, always a severe threat to Konoha.

  Uhey waited for Naruto to be born and fully master the Talk-no-Jutsu to thhly ge him.

  He didn't attempt to persuade Uchiha Obito, who had goo extremes, to turn back. Except for someone like Naruto who mastered Talk-no-Jutsu, people ot ge another's will through words.

  And Obito's rea didn't exceed Gojo Kaigetsu's expectations.

  Obito wiped the blood from the er of his mouth and said disdainfully, "Kill me? With just you?"

  Gojo Kaigetsu spread his hands; hearing this expected answer meant there was nothing to discuss.

  He said unhurriedly, "Uchiha Obito, actually, you've known all along that the one who killed Rin Nohara wasn't Kakashi. You never hated him for pierg Rin's heart with his own hand."

  Obito was stunned, not uanding why Gojo Kaigetsu suddenly brought this up. His voice was low aful: "You, what do you know!?"

  "You never hated Kakashi for killing Rin; you always knew Kakashi couldn't kill her. You just hate him for standing by and not saving her..."

  "You loathe the deg system of the ninja world and the vilges. You hate this rotten world that forced Kakashi to kill Rin~"

  "The o fault isn't Kakashi; it's this ninja world. So you followed Uchiha Madara's orders, wanting to personally destroy this deg world and create a world where 'heroes won't stand at graves weeping in guilt'..."

  Gojo Kaigetsu showed no mercy, directly disseg Obito's plex and twisted psyche.

  Like a sulking child, wanting to sever his past bonds to prove his maturity but uo truly harden his heart to do it. So he targeted peripheral figures like him and the Minato couple, whose bonds were weaker.

  Really, did he have to be so hypocritical? If he had the guts, he should have killed Kakashi first! Gojo Kaigetsu hated two kinds of people most in his life: those who are hypocritical and those who don't let him be hypocritical.

  "Bastard, stop talking!" Obito ched his fists, his voice trembling slightly.

  Gojo Kaigetsu khat Obito realized he knew everything. Not only the superficial disguise but even his psychological defenses were useless in front of him.

  He even knew about his colboration with Uchiha Madara... Why? How much did he know? How deep was his intelligework?

  Had his long-term pns been as transparent as child's py in Gojo Kaigetsu's eyes?!

  An absurd feeling grew in Obito's heart.

  He always wao kill his childish and ast self. But now, even after awakening the Mangekyō Sharingan, he was still as fragile as a child before this former mentor.

  Not worth mentioning.

  Gojo Kaigetsu shook his head again, "Your thinking is too extreme now; I don't feel like reasoning with you. You're not worthy of it."

  "What I said above is just what you already know. There are some things you don't know. Do you want to hear them?"

  Things he doesn't know?

  "What?" Obito subsciously asked.

  Gojo Kaigetsu raised his thumb and poi his ow: "How did Rin Nohara die back then? Uchiha Madara pced a seal on her heart and imphe Three-Tails in her body."

  "Because of the seal, Rin couldn't end her own life. She could only find Kakashi to kill her, to avoid being used to destroy Konoha..."

  "Kid, did you know this?"

  Did he know?

  Obito was momentarily lost.

  His instincts told him that this was likely true.

  This kind of thing-Uchiha Madara could do it, Rin could do it, Kakashi could do it. Only this way could expin why Kakashi would kill Rin with his own hands...

  But Obito didn't want to believe it was true.

  If all this was true, then he had been a all along, ag out a ridiculous performance as a pawn in a predetermined script.

  Revenge was fake, hatred was fake, ideals were fake. The pn to create a new world for Rin fually lost its reason...

  At this moment, Obito's ninja way... colpsed.

  He roared frantically, "Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!"

  "You bastard, what do you know?! Don't think you trick me with this!"

  "Die, die!"

  Obito ighe strain on his Mangekyō and activated Kamui again. His heavily injured body once again burst forth with astonishing speed, rushing tojo Kaigetsu.

  He raised his palm, aiming straight fojo Kaigetsu's head.

  Kamui: Full Release!

  As long as he touched him, he would absojo Kaigetsu into the Kamui dimension to starve to death! Or directly dismember him!

  Uchiha Obito thought madly.

  If he couldn't solve the problem of his ninja way colpsing, then he would elimihe person who caused it.

  As long as Gojo Kaigetsu died, the turmoil in his heart would calm down!

  Gojo Kaigetsu seemed to be scared stiff, standing there dazedly. But just as Obito was about to touch him-

  "Genjutsu: Infinite Void!"

  "Ninja Art: Purple!"

  Gojo Kaigetsu flicked his fihe two opposing space-time teiques, "Blue" and "Red," bined, f an energy wave that tore through space-time and shot straight out.

  Without deviation, aiming directly at Obito's heart.

  Uchiha Obito had been guarding against any hidden ninjutsu that Gojo Kaigetsu might not have used yet.

  Having learned from his previous mistake, he feared that Gojo Kaigetsu might throw a shuriken to summon Minato again. Therefore, even though he inteo kill, he was alrepared to activate Kamui's intangibility to avoid any potential deadly ninjutsu.

  But...

  He still uimated Gojo Kaigetsu.

  As everyone knows, "Infinite Void" is a meic-type genjutsu. Although its parameters don't reach the limit, with this meism, even an ōtsutsuki alien would be momentarily stunned.

  When chakra, infused with this meism, transformed into genjutsu and hit Obito's brain, everything ged.

  In Obito's eyes, tless repetitive images were forced upon him-

  Ses of Rin being killed by Kakashi.

  The Sharingan is ahat embodies emotions. The Mangekyō Sharingan is the ultimate maion of those emotions.

  After seeing those tless repeatih ses, Obito's despair and anger erupted again. His ocur power surged untrolbly, iirength into his frail body.

  But he was momentarily distracted.

  Although it was only an instant, and he used intangibility in time upaining crity to avoid most of "Purple's" damage, his left chest still showed a small, smooth circur hole.

  His heart ierced-!

  Their figures crossed, standing back to back like a cssic samurai duel.

  Blood untrolbly flowed from the er of Obito's mouth.

  An appalling hole appeared where his heart was.

  Uchiha Obito was pletely defeated!

  There was no time to think about his ninja way being overturned. If he didn't go back to find White Zetsu for treatment... he would die!

  The severe pain from his chest reminded Obito that his life was nearing its end. Although he could use his right eye as the price to activate Izanagi to avoid this death, but...

  If he lost this eye, he'd be like a stray dog; anyone could e and kick him. He couldn't possibly go to Kakashi and ask for his left eye back, could he?

  He'd be nothing.

  "Cough cough cough-"

  Obito coughed up mouthfuls of white blood, and from the er of his eye, he saw the bck fsh rushing toward him.

  Uhe stimution of "Infinite Void," his ocur power's limit and current amount were both enhanced, preventing him from fag a situation where he couldn't use Kamui due to depletion.

  Obito didn't dare dey any longer. He immediately activated Kamui agaiing the coordio teleport to.

  And what greeted him was-

  "Enemy spotted!"

  "Chidori!"

  "Enemy spotted!"

  "Susanoo... Hmm? He escaped?"

  "Intruder, where are you running?!"

  "Rasengan!"
