Naruto: I became a super shadow in the Anbu.

Chapter 413 Grandma's Corpse

On an ordinary afternoon in Konoha Village, an old woman collapsed on the road.

She dropped the bag of eggs she was carrying, spilling many yolks.

The egg yolk was covered in dust and looked particularly dirty.

"What's up with her?"

A young man was standing nearby, about to help the old lady up.

His companion grabbed his shoulder.

"Look at the tribal crest on her clothes!"

Upon closer inspection, the young man recognized the Uchiha clan's fan emblem and immediately stopped his impulse to help.

"It's the Uchiha! It's those damned Uchiha..."

The young man glanced at a section of Konoha wall covered by scaffolding in the distance, thought of his deceased cousin, and looked at the old woman Uchiha with hatred.

Damn the Uchiha clan, they produced a rogue ninja like Madara Uchiha who attacked Konoha.

During the Susanoo Rebellion, the young man's cousin was killed by White Zetsu.

If the Uchiha clan only produced rogue ninjas, that would be one thing. But large ninja clans all have some dark history, and it's not uncommon for one or two dissatisfied traitors to become rogue ninjas.

However, the Uchiha clan completely disappeared during the Susanoo Rebellion and did not fight Madara Uchiha.

Are they unable to bring themselves to harm their own clan leader?
Are they thinking of seeking refuge with their clan leader, Uchiha Madara?
During the Susanoo Rebellion, the entire security force did only one thing: evacuate civilians.

They acted like they were on fire, treating civilians extremely badly.

With rogue ninja attacking Konoha Village from the outside, coupled with the emergency evacuation in the middle of the night, things were already chaotic, and it was inevitable that some people would lose their way. The Uchiha ninjas from the security department were extremely rude.

That night, more than 20 Konoha villagers died from being trampled to death.

It's one thing to be crushed to death by Madara Uchiha's Susanoo, but due to poor evacuation, he trampled more than 20 people to death. How could he not hate the Uchiha Police Department?
Afterwards, a notice was posted at the Hokage Building announcing the disciplinary action taken against the security department.

The evacuation of Konoha civilians was inadequate, and Uchiha Zhong, the head of the Security Department, bears significant responsibility. All the ninjas in charge of the Security Department have been given demerits.

After a month of escalation, fueled by certain forces, the villagers' discontent with the garrison has reached its peak.

If you see an old Uchiha woman lying on the ground, you'd have to admit you have high moral character if you didn't stomp on her.

The old woman lay on the ground, groaning at first, but then she fell silent.

Her spine appears to be broken.

Some Konoha villagers stopped and watched from a distance with furrowed brows, while most villagers simply left.

Serves them right! It's so satisfying to see the Uchiha clan suffer.

On his way home from the ninja academy, Obito Uchiha saw an old woman lying in the middle of the road.

He rushed towards the old woman, shouting as he ran, "Why are you all just standing there? Why aren't you helping her?"

After taking more than ten steps forward, Obito suddenly stopped.

Isn't she... his own grandmother?

The person I need to save is not someone else, but my own grandmother.

The other person who stood by and did nothing was also his own grandmother.

Obito quickly sped up and rushed to his grandmother's side.

Upon seeing that it really was his grandmother, Obito Uchiha's pupils suddenly contracted.

"Grandma! Grandma!"

Obito Uchiha tried to help his grandmother up, but found that her waist was at a strange angle, as if her lumbar vertebrae were broken.

"Someone help me! I can't lift this up by myself!"

Obito turned his head and looked at the crowd around him.

"Auntie! I've been looking after your child for you, can you help me instead?"

The woman in the distance felt a moment of pity, but remembering her aunt who had been trampled to death, she remained motionless.

Disappointed, Obito turned to another older man.

"Uncle, I held the ladder for you, please help me, okay?"

That uncle knew Obito. Once, when he was repairing the eaves, Obito helped him hold the ladder, which caused him to miss school.

But thinking about the Uchiha clan's terrible reputation, the uncle was furious.

Obito's heart sank even further. He looked at an old woman and said, "Grandma, I've gotten milk for you many times. Please help me, okay?"

The old lady was about to step forward when her daughter-in-law stopped her from behind.

Her daughter-in-law stared at the Uchiha clan crest on Obito's clothes with hatred in her eyes.

She used to sell dumplings along the street, and her cart was forcibly confiscated by the Uchiha Police Department. Obito looked around, no longer searching for any specific person, but scanning the group of people with unfamiliar, empty eyes.

Is this the neighbor he treats with such kindness every day...?
On his way from home to school, his eyes are like radar, always able to find people who need help.

He couldn't even remember how many people he had helped along this road.

He used to think that he was very important to the people on this path.

So it was all fake all along!
My self-help is fake, and my self-satisfaction is also fake!
A faint sound came from beside me.

"Obito... Obito..."

Obito immediately lay down.

Grandma's last words came:

"Obito, you must live on..."
You've never met your parents, but they love you just as much as I love you...

They were unlucky; they died in the Fourth Shinobi World War, never having the chance to love you...

Obito, you must live on...

Grandma's breathing grew weaker and weaker. She bent over, kneeling on the ground. Blood rushed to her brain, causing a brain hemorrhage, and she died in the middle of the street.

"Grandma! Grandma..."

Obito's vision was blurred by tears.

"Ah! Grandma! Don't die..."

After a long time, Obito finally confirmed that his grandmother was indeed dead.

Obito gently laid his grandmother flat on the road.

The wind blew in garbage bags and trampled paper, which fell on Grandma's body.

Du Mumu reached out to stop them, not wanting these dirty things to touch Grandma.

However, no matter how hard he tried to stop it, he couldn't stop so many pieces of trash.

He slowly stood up.

By this time, a crowd had already gathered on the street.

Everyone stood there with furrowed brows, coldly watching Obito Uchiha in the center and the old woman's corpse on the ground.

Obito discovers that his grandmother's cold body is the only warmth he finds.

In that instant, Obito felt that everyone was very, very far away from him.

The people around quickly dispersed.

He stood as if he were all alone in the middle of a vast, boundless square.

Isolated and helpless, filled with fear and anxiety.

The people standing around looked as small as ants.

Actually, it's not that the people around him have become farther away, it's that he has shrunk.

Obito Uchiha's eyes were changing rapidly.

The two tomoe quickly transformed into three tomoe.

The three tomoe spun rapidly, and the black markings merged, transforming into a pair of Mangekyou Sharingan.

A vortex-shaped spatial ripple appeared between Obito Uchiha's eyes.

His and his grandmother's bodies disappeared.

Six Uchiha Security Force ninjas arrived late.

They arrived at the open circular space in the middle of the road and were surprised to find that an old man and a child, whom they had just seen in the distance, had suddenly disappeared.

A security ninja rushed into the crowd, grabbed an older woman, and demanded, "Tell me! What just happened!"

The woman struggled, but found that the security ninja was very rough, as if he was about to break her arm.

"I don't know! It has nothing to do with me! Let go of me!"

The ninja from the security department exerted force again, and the old woman cried out in pain before she could recount what had just happened.

A Uchiha boy saw his grandmother die, and then she mysteriously disappeared.
When Obito Uchiha reappeared, he was already far outside Konoha Village.

He looked down at his grandmother's corpse, his eyes filled with only ferocity.

After an unknown amount of time, White Zetsu slowly emerged from the large tree opposite.

He looked into Obito Uchiha's eyes; they were a pair of beautiful kaleidoscopes.

"Obito, I've searched so hard for you. Come, let's go see Lord Madara. Lord Madara will answer your questions, Lord Madara will give you the power of revenge..."
