335 Learning Ninjutsu in a Glance
🕑 Added 2025-11-26 06:11:01 +0000 UTCThe ninja allied forces and Obito's tug-of-war over the tailed beasts were still ongoing.
Shinju felt that helping with the tug-of-war shouldn't count as participating in the battle, so he planned to go up and give it a tug too.
At that moment, a lazy little frog hopped to Shinju's feet and croaked twice, "Ribbit! Ribbit!"
Shinju was stunned: "You are… a messenger frog from Myoboku?"
The little frog nodded very intelligently, its belly swelling and deflating.
After a while, it opened its mouth and spat out a tiny scroll.
Shinju took the scroll and slowly unrolled it.
[Stay away from the battlefield, come to Myoboku immediately!]
It was written in Myoboku frog script.
Shinju couldn't tell whose handwriting it was.
He guessed it must have been written by Sage Fukasaku or Mr. Jima, otherwise it wouldn't be so tiny…
"The prophecy of the Great Toad Sage… (✘Д✘๑)"
Shinju murmured to himself, looking up at the allied forces struggling with Obito. He figured that even without him, Naruto and Sasuke could handle Obito.
So, Shinju chose to follow the frog's advice and left.
...
After Shinju disappeared, a massive pitcher plant sprouted from the ground where he had been standing!
"He just left like that… ◝₍ᴑ̑ДO͝₎◞"
"All that preparation to deal with him…"
"By the way, Shinju has been acting strange since the beginning of the battle. What has he been scheming behind the scenes…"
...
On the other side, Rin grasped the chakra dispersed by Naruto and joined the "tug-of-war"!
High above, Obito's expression changed the moment Rin joined the tug-of-war!
Inside the mental space.
Naruto and Sasuke stared at Obito not far away.
"Because our chakras are connected, you can enter my mental world…"
Obito murmured, "Stop struggling pointlessly. I told you, I've made up my mind to cast Infinite Tsukuyomi!"
Naruto: "Obito, when will you understand? We don't call this struggling, we call it resistance! ୧⍢⃝୨"
"And in this war, we are destined to win!"
Obito: "Stop spouting fancy words. It's just thanks to Shinju's chakra… ╮(╯▽╰)╭"
Naruto: "Then you should know, if Shinju himself were here, you wouldn't even have a chance to talk to us. (๑ت๑)"
"And isn't it also because of Shinju that you could see your past love…"
Naruto's expression was teasing.
When his chakra touched Obito's, he saw Obito's memories and understood the inner heart of this Ten-Tails jinchūriki.
Uchiha Obito's early personality was very similar to Naruto's—equally naive, equally passionate, equally aiming to be Hokage, equally kind-hearted…
On his way to pursue the dream of becoming Hokage, he met Rin Nohara, this gentle girl who was the light in Obito's world.
From the first time he saw her, Obito liked this beautiful, attentive, and understanding girl.
Later, Obito successfully graduated from the ninja academy and was placed in Minato Namikaze's class along with Kakashi and Rin.
At that time, it was the Third Great Ninja War, and the village was short on manpower. Even though they had just graduated and were very young, they were sent to the battlefield by the village's orders.
The turning point happened during the Battle of Kannabi Bridge in the Third Great Ninja War.
Minato Namikaze was sent to the front line to support, and Obito, Kakashi, and Rin were assigned to blow up Kannabi Bridge to prevent enemy reinforcements from reaching the front.
During this mission, Rin was unexpectedly captured by the enemy, and Kakashi and Obito disagreed on whether to go save her.
Kakashi insisted on prioritizing the ninja mission.
Because his father, White Fang of Konoha, Sakumo Hatake, had once failed to complete a mission to save a comrade. Upon returning to the village, he was mocked by the ninja and chose to commit suicide.
Obito chose to save his comrade.
He had also heard about Kakashi's father, so he said the words that would influence Kakashi's life forever—"In the world of ninjas, a ninja who doesn't follow rules is a failure, but one who doesn't cherish comrades is worse than a failure."
Ultimately, the rule-abiding Kakashi made the same decision as his father years ago: to save his comrade!
During the rescue of Rin, Kakashi was stabbed in the left eye by enemy ninjas while saving Obito. At that moment, the unawakened Obito instantly activated his Sharingan with two tomoe and killed the enemy instantly!
Later, the two found the captured Rin in a cave, but a treacherous enemy collapsed the cave with earth release. Obito, trying to save Kakashi, was pinned by a huge rock, severely injured, and helpless.
In this desperate situation, Obito decided to give his Sharingan to Kakashi as a gift for Kakashi becoming a Jonin.
This was the origin of Kakashi's left eye Sharingan.
In the end, the Battle of Kannabi Bridge was a great victory. Obito went missing afterward and was presumed dead by Konoha.
In reality, Obito had not truly died but was saved by the aged Uchiha Madara.
Madara used Hashirama's cells to repair Obito's severely injured right side and told him about his grand ambition, hoping Obito would serve him.
However, Obito, with his heart on Kakashi and Rin, refused directly.
For a long time afterward, Obito was kept in a secret room to adapt to his new body...
Until White Zetsu brought the latest news that Kakashi and Rin were in danger, Obito decided to rescue them.
Later, with White Zetsu's help, he successfully broke out of the secret room and headed to the battlefield.
But when he arrived, he coincidentally saw Kakashi's Lightning Blade pierce Rin's chest...
At that moment, Kakashi's left eye and Obito's right eye both awakened the Mangekyō Sharingan simultaneously!
Afterwards, Kakashi fell unconscious, and Obito went on a rampage, killing all the Mist ninjas present with Wood Release!
Rin's death dealt a severe blow to Obito, making him doubt everything in the ninja world.
Driven by hatred, Obito returned to Madara, embraced his ideology, and decided to help implement the "Eye of the Moon" plan.
After that, Madara taught Obito the skills of Yin-Yang Release and the Six Paths, dying exhausted after detaching from the Demonic Statue.
Obito then traveled the ninja world, and the more he saw, the more he was determined in his thought—to create a genjutsu world of true peace!
...
Naruto looked up at Obito, eyes blazing: "You regret it now, don't you?"
"When you just saw Rin, everyone could clearly sense your wavering!"
Obito flatly denied: "Impossible. Do you think I wanted to cast Infinite Tsukuyomi just for Rin?"
"What really disappointed me is this world!"
"This wrong world keeps producing tragedies! (｡•ˇ‸ˇ•｡)"
Naruto wanted to argue further, but Sasuke shrugged and said seriously: "Infinite Tsukuyomi may also be a way to achieve peace, but it's definitely not the best method at this stage."
Naruto nodded: "Because we are changing the world! ୧⍢⃝୨"
