Chapter 283: Chapter 283: Young Obito Took Rin Away, Old Obito Only Has Kakashi Left
Rin hesitated, conflicted. In fact, she hoped that the Obito from the other world would also stop, because then not so many people would die, and after all, Infinite Tsukuyomi was just a scam, wasn't it?
But she knew even more clearly, once a bow is drawn, there's no turning back for the arrow. If you think about the problem from the perspective of Old Obito, you'll find that he has no way back.
If he gives up now, his whole life will live in the shadows, without light.
Better to go out with a bang, fight a grand battle, and even if he dies, to still bloom with blazing light.
Just as she was about to say something, beside her, a figure suddenly appeared.
It was Young Obito who had come.
Young Obito immediately grabbed her hand, holding it tightly in his palm, "Rin, I'll handle this guy's matter. You don't need to worry."
Although Old Obito was blind, that didn't mean he couldn't sense what Young Obito was doing now.
Originally, his emotions were stirred up, ready to go all out, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that he was like a clown, always playing a supporting role.
But, what could he do? He could only try his best to reduce his own presence.
Slap!
At this time, Rin had already slapped Young Obito across the face.
After slapping Young Obito, she tearfully threw herself into his arms and said, "I'm sorry, I hit you. It clearly wasn't your fault. Obito, you can hit me."
Young Obito stared blankly at Rin's broken-down appearance. It was his first time seeing the usually emotionally stable Rin also have a breakdown, and he felt deep heartache. He hugged her in return.
"Rin, it's okay. I told you, I was the one who acted on impulse."
Rin lightly pounded Obito with her little fists, "It clearly wasn't!"
Young Obito looked at Rin's somewhat spoiled behavior at this moment, and suddenly felt, 'It is quite nice.'
Rin was so gentle, so gentle that she never acted spoiled with him before, but... he also wanted Rin to act spoiled with him.
He softly asked, "Just now, what exactly happened?"
Rin was a little embarrassed and said, "I wanted to play a joke on him and test my own strength. At first, he was very angry, but he didn't mean to hurt me. It's just that later, maybe I pushed him too hard, and he got a bit agitated, then..."
Young Obito couldn't help but clutch his head. What kind of personality Sasuke had, even if he didn't know the full picture, he at least knew the general idea.
He couldn't help but ask, "Rin, you didn't try to persuade him to give up on his hatred, did you?"
Rin looked even more embarrassed, "Actually, at the time he was fighting with Kakashi. I just wanted to find a way out, to get both sides to stop fighting."
"Because Tsuande-sama often deals with similar scenes and has a lot of experience, I subconsciously imitated the way she speaks."
Young Obito couldn't help but pat his head, 'Imitate Tsunade's way of speaking? How was Konoha destroyed by Nagato again?'
He seriously suspected it was because Tsunade said something inappropriate.
Those ninjas from the Five Great Shinobi Villages, the ones who always appear high and mighty, arrogance was etched into their bones.
Especially kind people, they often say some naive and innocent words that stab deeply into those who live in dire suffering.
Because, these naive and innocent words make those living in pain more aware of one thing, 'Why is your life so blissful, while mine is so miserable?'
'Won't that fill the anger bar instantly?'
So, Young Obito said seriously, "Rin, never imitate what Lady Tsunade says. She is indeed a heroine among women, but she's also the noble Tsunade of the Land of Fire. In a sense, she's incapable of understanding people like Sasuke."
"As for Sasuke's situation, I understand. If you really feel bad about it, I'll give him compensation, a substitute."
Only then did Rin feel at ease. She suddenly realized that Old Obito was still nearby, and feeling a little guilty, she pushed Young Obito away.
Following Rin's gaze, Young Obito looked toward Old Obito and saw him closing his eyes, covering his face, exuding a gloomy aura all over.
He understood this kind of emotion too well, after all, Old Obito was still young, and hadn't experienced many things yet.
So, with a hint of smugness in his tone, he asked, "I was the one who got hit. Why are you covering your face?"
Old Obito was almost exploding with rage. The one who knew how to infuriate him the most really was himself.
He stretched out a hand, "Enough!"
Rin couldn't help but knock Young Obito on the head again, "Obito, you're not allowed to use me to make fun of yourself."
However, Old Obito broke down even more, "You all, enough already!"
Kakashi suddenly felt sympathetic and walked up to Old Obito, inviting him, "How about ignoring them, come back with me. I'll make fish for dinner tonight."
"Oh right, want to check out Icha Icha Paradise? I was reading it just now, and honestly, it's not bad. If you can't see it, I can read it to you."
Old Obito's tears flowed unconsciously.
Seeing this, Kakashi looked over at the two already holding an umbrella, Obito and Rin, and also raised his own umbrella, handing it to Old Obito, "The rain is too heavy, and you're too tall. I can't reach. So you'll have to hold the umbrella for me."
Old Obito numbly took the umbrella and held it up.
Kakashi saw the rainwater on Old Obito's face increasing and reminded him, "This umbrella is big enough, it can cover more than just me."
But Old Obito shook his head and said, "Kakashi, this isn't rain. It's tears."
Kakashi sighed, "In the end, you still got hurt by those two, huh? Makes sense, even I, as an outsider, can't bear to see scenes like that sometimes."
Old Obito shook his head again, this time with a faint smile at the corner of his mouth, "No, it's just... you guys can still laugh and joke like this. It's nice."
"I also once wanted to create a world like that."
At this time, Young Obito and Rin also walked over. Rin likewise invited Old Obito, "Come back with us. We're all members of Team 7. Tonight we'll eat Kakashi's cooking."
Old Obito wanted to refuse, but he couldn't say any words of refusal. Just like that, he silently followed behind Young Obito and Rin with Kakashi, quietly walking back.
Kakashi looked at the silent Old Obito along the way and tried to comfort him, "Obito, can I still call you like that?"
Old Obito blankly said, "You can."
Kakashi narrowed his eyes and looked at Obito's heart, "Over there, is there really nothing left? Completely empty?"
Old Obito still blankly said, "Yeah."
Kakashi's gaze revealed a hint of teasing, "But just now, I clearly felt it hurt a little."
Old Obito looked at Kakashi with a bit of frustration, "You guys are even more irritating than I remembered."
Kakashi slowly said, "Yeah, because the version of you in this world is really irritating. Without realizing it, we learned bad habits from him too."
After a pause, Kakashi changed the subject, "But, if it still hurts, that means you don't really not care about everything."
Old Obito sighed, "Kakashi, you in this world are pretty open-minded. Clearly, right now, you're just a kid. I should be the one enlightening you."
Kakashi snorted, "Are you talking about my father? He already enlightened me. And besides, right now, Danzo is already dead. I've come to terms with my father's death."
Then Kakashi became curious again, "Just now, that Sasuke... will he really become my student in the future?"
Old Obito finally found a point to counterattack and said, "A former student. He thought your teaching skills were trash and ran off with Orochimaru. Kakashi, you really are a failure."
Kakashi narrowed his eyes and looked at Obito.
Obito felt Kakashi's gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"
Kakashi said, "Rin was right. You should think more about your younger self. People shouldn't live such exhausting lives."
