He understood that Kawasaki and Obito were already irreconcilable enemies.
It took a lot of determination for me to come here today.
In fact, Kawasaki knew that Kakashi would pay the price for this—
Because he had already received feedback from the system:
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for significantly altering Kakashi's destiny.]
Reward: Raikiri x1
[Ding! Congratulations on successfully recruiting Kakashi into your team.]
Bonus: Swordsmanship Talent Boost
Upon seeing the list of prizes, Kawasaki realized that Kakashi had staked everything on obtaining the power of the Impure World Reincarnation.
Once you pledge allegiance to someone, you will never change.
Therefore, Kakashi's life has undergone a tremendous change.
The most practical one is the Lightning Blade, after all, Kakashi has learned many special techniques using the Sharingan over the years.
This is precisely Kawasaki's next research goal: to fully understand property changes.
Having such a template for reference is not bad.
Seeing Kakashi's talent, Kawasaki couldn't help but marvel at how well he had inherited it.
Although focusing on using the Sharingan over the years almost caused me to neglect my other skills, it should still be not too late to pick them up again.
Like everyone else, Kakashi was certain that Obito would come looking for trouble.
Therefore, specifically accompanying someone is one of the fastest ways to find them.
Even if persuasion fails, you must stop them from continuing to cause harm, since you also bear responsibility for it.
If this doesn't work, let's try another method—Kakashi turned around and looked at the figure next to him whose eyes were always tightly closed.
His cracked face seemed oblivious to their earlier conversation.
“Obito has appeared, he’s about a kilometer to our west and is heading this way.”
Nagato, who was still sitting with his eyes closed, spoke to deliver the news.
Upon hearing this, Kawasaki revealed a playful expression and said:
"Let's go, Kakashi."
"Let's go see how that old friend who obtained the Rinnegan is doing?"
With the addition of those eyes, Obito's keen insight quickly made him notice that there were many spies and informants from various forces lurking around him.
It was clearly aimed at him, or more precisely, at his left eye.
Using his divine power and extraordinary abilities, he quietly broke through the blockade without attracting attention.
Fortunately, these spies didn't want to cause trouble and didn't get too close to the Uchiha.
Standing atop the treetops, looking down at the densely packed, moving figures of his clansmen below, Obito felt a chill run through him.
Anyone who blocks my way shall die!
Just as he was about to unleash a fire jutsu to deliver a heavy blow, a familiar voice came from afar:
"Obito!"
Putting down his hand gestures and turning his head, he saw Kawasaki's backup, Hachi, and Kakashi rushing over.
The former waved his hand, signaling everyone to step back, and said:
"Leave this to me, please leave now."
Upon seeing their leader arrive, the Uchiha members bowed and left.
Support is superfluous and will only become a burden.
Kawasaki smiled half-jokingly and looked at the person opposite him, saying:
"How did you stoop so low as to even prey on ordinary people, Obito?"
Obito ignored Kawasaki and turned to look at Kakashi.
Obito was prepared for Kawasaki's arrival; he even set fire to the place to lure Kawasaki over.
He wanted to know how many people Kawasaki could protect.
But to everyone's surprise, Kakashi was also in the team.
Kakashi said with a sorrowful expression:
"Obito, how did you become like this?"
"How have you survived all these years? Why haven't you come looking for me?"
Kakashi's feelings for Obito were complex.
They were once teammates and could be said to be friends who had gone through life and death together.
If Obito hadn't saved him, he would have been crushed to death by the boulder long ago.
Before his death, Obito gave his Sharingan to Kakashi.
Obito's last words before he died were to ask him to take care of Rin.
However, the situation later changed, and in order not to harm other villagers, Rin chose to die at Kakashi's hands.
This was a huge blow to both Kakashi and Obito.
However, this was Lin's own decision.
Kakashi felt extremely guilty towards Rin and Obito.
His teacher and his wife subsequently died in the Nine-Tailed Fox's rampage, causing him to suffer a mental breakdown.
Without Kai's daily care and help, he probably wouldn't have been able to persevere.
He lived like a walking corpse every day, unable to find any sense of belonging.
Because the people I care about are no longer here.
However, Kawasaki later revealed a fact: the Nine-Tails' rampage was actually caused by Obito.
At first, Kakashi was unwilling to accept the truth, but reality is always cruel.
So Kakashi looked at Obito with deep sorrow, hoping to find out the reason.
Seeing the pain on Kakashi's face, Obito became very impatient.
"How I survived is completely unimportant."
"However, since you want to know the reason..."
Rin's smile flashed through Obito's mind.
Chapter 268 Obito, you bastard! Kawasaki's disdain!
"It's because you didn't save Lin."
Hearing this, Kakashi felt heavy-hearted; it was indeed because of Rin.
Kakashi shook his head and said:
"That's not how it is, Lin is on her own..."
"Shut up, Kakashi!"
Obito was furious.
"Do you think I don't know that Lin willingly sacrificed herself at your hands?"
Kakashi's eyes widened in disbelief as he said:
"Since you know that, then why did you..."
Obito closed his eyes and spread his hands out.
"What's the point of complaining now that things have come to this?"
"I don't care about this hopeless world anymore."
"Pfft... Hahaha."
Kawasaki couldn't help but laugh.
Obito recalled being mocked in the same way many years ago, and then glared at Kawasaki.
"What are you laughing at, Kawasaki?"
Kawasaki also spread his hands and said:
You said this world fills you with despair.
"So you framed my Uchiha clan, launched the Nine-Tails attack, and even killed your own teacher and his wife?"
"Just because Lin died?"
"It seems you love Lin very much."
If you really care about her that much.
"Then why don't you think about how kind she was when she was alive? Do you think she would want you to look at the world with such a negative gaze?"
Obito never told Konan and Nagato about the Eye of the Moon plan, believing it was a well-kept secret.
I won't bring it up now.
Obito simply sneered:
“There is no point in living in this place full of suffering.”
"It would be better to let everyone be free."
Lin has already left. Wouldn't it be better for the teacher and his wife to go with her sooner?
Kawasaki looked at Obito with even more disdain.
But he didn't say anything more.
