"To kill one's own teacher and teacher's wife is truly heinous and inhuman."
"Recently, they attacked the Uchiha clan chief, seriously injuring him and causing heavy losses to the clan."
"By unanimous decision of the entire Uchiha clan, Obito Uchiha will be removed from the clan register, and a permanent manhunt and bounty will be placed on his head!"
"Anyone who kills Obito can claim a bounty of 300 million rupees from the Uchiha clan upon presenting his head! This declaration is valid indefinitely!"
If the previous news surprised everyone, then what follows is undoubtedly a bombshell.
Was Obito the mastermind behind the Nine-Tails' rampage?
Konoha suffered heavy casualties during the Nine-Tails' rampage, including the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze and his wife, the genjutsu master Kurenai Yuhi, and Iruka's parents.
There's also the Third Hokage's wife, Sarutobi Biwako.
Akimichi Torifu was also seriously injured and retired at that time.
The number of ordinary villagers killed or injured was countless; countless families lost loved ones and friends on that day...
That was Konoha's largest casualty incident during a period of peace.
Many villagers even believed that the Nine-Tails' rampage was an accident caused by the Jinchūriki's seal breaking.
As a result, many people either beat or scolded Naruto.
After reading the Uchiha's announcement, people realized that the Nine-Tails' rampage was actually a deliberate act.
Despite the notices being posted everywhere, the crowds gathering in front of each notice board have only increased.
Fortunately, members of the Hyuga clan's security force were on the sidelines maintaining order, preventing the situation from spiraling out of control.
In recent years, the Hyuga family has been in charge of security patrols.
Some villagers who were familiar with Hyuga asked them about Obito.
The Hyuga clan had already prepared their explanation:
"Obito was an orphan from a young age and was raised by the Uchiha clan. Later, he became a disciple of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, along with Kakashi and Rin Nohara."
"She went missing after the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, was presumed dead in battle, and was later murdered by Kirigakure through a conspiracy."
"Obito deeply loved Rin Nohara, and after learning of her death, he began to take revenge on everyone."
"He launched a nine-tailed rage and killed his teacher and his mistress."
The onlookers were stunned: "Shouldn't he take revenge on Kirigakure?"
"Why would you target your own village and kill your teacher?"
"He has already taken revenge on Wuyin."
"He retaliated against Konoha because he believed that even the Fourth Hokage, the fastest ninja in the world, couldn't save Nohara Rin, so he took his anger out on the Fourth Hokage..."
"Isn't this just plain stupid? Is this guy insane?"
The Hyuga clan members chimed in, "Who says otherwise...?"
Kawasaki did not reveal the deeper reasons behind Obito's Nine-Tails rampage, but simply showed Obito's madness.
The Hyuga clan members' words successfully diverted the attention of the onlookers.
"You have no idea how much blame the Uchiha clan has been taken for."
"On the night of the Nine-Tails, the Uchiha clan members were clearly helping non-combatants evacuate."
"However, rumors spread that the Uchiha clan had stood by and done nothing that night, and many people condemned the Uchiha clan..."
"Some people even spread rumors that the Nine-Tails' rampage was caused by the Uchiha clan members in the village."
"This is outrageous..."
"Didn't Obito also have the surname Uchiha?"
“How can this be the same? He attacked the head of the Uchiha clan, and besides, he has already been expelled from the clan register.”
"A bounty of three hundred million, wow, that's a lot of money..."
"Hey, what are you thinking? Fugaku Uchiha is seriously injured, do you still want to grab this bounty...?"
The bombshell revelation dropped by the Uchiha clan shocked the entire Hidden Leaf Village and even the entire ninja world.
Unlike ordinary villagers, the ninja clan received more detailed intelligence.
Intelligence indicates that Obito is mentally twisted, proficient in space-time ninjutsu, and harbors hostility towards the entire ninja world.
Kirigakure has already suffered greatly at Obito's hands.
He also had a habit of impersonating Uchiha Madara, using Madara's name to swindle and deceive people.
All the major ninja clans in Konoha received invitations to the celebration, and a grand ceremony will be held for Kawasaki to take over as clan leader.
Other ninja villages were also invited to attend the ceremony.
In contrast, many ninja clans are more concerned about information about the mastermind behind the Nine-Tails' rampage.
Almost all the major ninja clans of Konoha participated in the Nine-Tails' Night, suffering varying degrees of losses.
The identity of the murderer has remained unknown for years, and Konoha has been investigating without any leads.
But now the Uchiha have discovered it.
Chapter 96 Kawasaki Returns to Konoha! Mei Terumi! Akatsuki! Dust Release! Onoki! Gaara!
Aside from being Minato's disciple, Obito was not particularly outstanding in the past.
Later, he disappeared and was identified by the enemy as having died in 17 out of 37 battles, and was thus forgotten.
But he gave his eyes to Kakashi before he died.
Kakashi became famous because of this eye, but only a few people remembered him.
Unexpectedly, when news of him came again, it revealed that he was the mastermind behind the Nine-Tailed Fox rampage.
Some people went to the Third Hokage for verification, while others went directly to the Uchiha clan for verification.
The Third Hokage, anticipating the uproar that Obito's identity would be revealed, had prepared his response well in advance.
This indicates that everything is still under investigation and no conclusion has been reached.
However, the Third Hokage was quite surprised by the Uchiha clan's proposal to change the clan leader.
The replacement of the Uchiha clan was originally a minor matter.
But at such a crucial moment, the Uchiha's invitation to outsiders to witness the ceremony was tantamount to stabbing the Third Hokage in the heart.
Now, people from other ninja villages can openly come to Konoha to gather intelligence.
Moreover, according to custom, all Uchiha clan members should return to the village when the clan leader changes.
This means that the more than one hundred elite soldiers that Zhishui led away will return to the village.
This puts immense pressure on the third generation.
The Third Hokage even worried that Kawasaki might have other motives.
...
Unlike the delaying strategy adopted by Konoha.
When the ninja clan came to verify the authenticity of the news.
The Uchiha clan gave an affirmative answer and informed everyone.
Kakashi was attacked by Obito, who wanted to get his eyes back.
Kakashi has completely seen through Obito's identity; if you don't believe me, you can go and verify it with Kakashi.
Then, a large group of people sprang into action, searching everywhere for Kakashi's whereabouts.
Kakashi had just found a secluded place for Rin to bury her.
As soon as he returned to Konoha, groups of people came to his door, wanting to confirm whether Obito had orchestrated the Nine-Tails attack.
Kakashi had a bitter pill to swallow, even though it was indeed Obito's doing.
But he simply couldn't believe that his companion had turned out to be such a person.
Just then, Konoha issued a gag order, so Kakashi simply hid in the Anbu's headquarters.
But a series of setbacks left him disheartened, and he became depressed and withdrawn.
After losing an eye, Kakashi's strength was greatly affected.
With limited visibility, even when using the Rai-chi, the speed is too fast to accurately lock onto the target.
Although his chakra was no longer as scarce as before, Kakashi had almost lost his passion for fighting.
He stopped accepting assignments and stopped visiting the memorial.
Every day I just lie in bed, immersed in pain, wandering around like a ghost.
.....
In the Hidden Cloud Village, in the Raikage's office.
"Uchiha Kawasaki returned to the village and announced that he would take over as the head of the Uchiha clan in a month. The Uchiha clan sent out invitations to all the ninja villages to attend the celebration."
"The Uchiha clan has declared Obito Uchiha the mastermind behind the Nine-Tails' attack, expelled him from the clan, and issued a permanent kill warrant with a bounty of 300 million!"
"It is particularly emphasized that Obito is skilled in space-time ninjutsu, often impersonates Madara Uchiha, and harbors deep hatred for the entire ninja world. Kirigakure in the Land of Water has already suffered retaliation."
"No official news has been received from the Land of Water yet."
"The Uchiha clan's official invitation will arrive soon."
The efficient Mabui reported the latest intelligence she had gathered to the Raikage.
The Raikage tapped the table lightly: "I just sent someone to investigate Uchiha Kawasaki's whereabouts, and he's already back in the village. Isn't that too much of a coincidence?"
"We need to keep a close eye on Obito. Anyone who has mastered space-time ninjutsu is not someone to be trifled with."
"At the same time, continue to investigate the movements in the Land of Water to find out exactly how Obito will retaliate against the Land of Water."
Holding the documents, Mabui asked, "Should we send a representative to the Uchiha festival?"
The Raikage laughed loudly, "Of course, isn't this a perfect opportunity to investigate Konoha?"
As long-time rivals, Kumogakure and Konoha can take advantage of the Uchiha's celebration.
