Naruto: From Capturing the Main Clan to Becoming the Mastermind

Chapter 62 Lin: I'm Cracked

After thinking about it carefully for a while, Ban found no trace of anyone interfering in the matter and stopped thinking about it.

"How is the plan going?"

"There were too few suitable targets, so only five ninjas were selected."

"Not enough, continue."

"yes!"

……

After hearing Kakashi's story, Kushina just wanted to rush to the medical unit and ask them how they managed to leave Rin alone on the battlefield!

But reason told her that this matter probably had nothing to do with them.

"Rin, Kirigakure, Obito, Mangekyou Sharingan, white creature, Madara Uchiha..."

Kushina felt like she could string a thread together, but something was still missing.

After a moment's thought, Kushina suppressed her grief and looked at Hyuga Yu, "Yu, how strong is Obito?"

Although I don't want to think this way, if we meet again, Obito will likely become our enemy.

Pulling himself out of his thoughts, Hyuga Yu said, "Very good. After experiencing some more battles and gaining more experience in using his eye techniques, he'll be quite formidable later on."

"Fugaku said that his Mangekyou Sharingan couldn't be used too frequently, otherwise he would go blind. Doesn't Obito have the same restriction?"

Kushina was somewhat puzzled.

"He used it very frequently; he kept using that move to dodge attacks."

The pill picked up the conversation, frowning as it said, "I'm afraid it won't take much to his health."

"And in the end, he sucked himself into a vortex and disappeared. The vortex appeared right next to his right eye, so I guess his eye technique is a space-time ninjutsu. But if that's the case, I can't figure out his ability to switch between reality and illusion."

"I understand." Kushina memorized Obito's information and turned her gaze to Hyuga Yu: "Yu, can you hold on?"

Upon hearing this, before Hyuga Yu could speak, Uchiha Yakumaru looked at him with a face full of question marks:

He's clearly fine.

"Not so good." Hyuga Yu glanced at the pills and said indifferently, "My chakra is almost depleted, but other than that, there aren't any major problems."

"It's not just a matter of chakra, is it? Even with the Byakugan providing a global perspective, one person has to analyze all sorts of information while dealing with a thousand ninjas. Then, you have to face Obito. It'll be mentally exhausting... Yu, you should go back to camp and rest."

Kushina shook her head and said softly, "Kakashi, you go back to camp too. Leave the rest to us."

Kakashi nodded.

His mind was in turmoil; all he wanted to know was why Lin had appeared on the battlefield.

"So you were just putting on a brave face."

Seeing that Hyuga Yu had tacitly accepted the arrangement without objection, Uchiha Yakumaru retorted, "I thought you were perfectly fine, just like the expression on your face. Coming to help in this state? Aren't you afraid of running out of chakra and getting killed by Obito?"

"I've reserved enough chakra to use the Flying Thunder God Technique, so I can leave if necessary."

pill:"……"

Space-time ninjutsu is really too overpowered. I need to continue to ask the Fourth Hokage for guidance when I get back, and try my best to master the Flying Thunder God Technique.

"Baby, you look so energetic, you should be able to continue the mission."

Kushina grabbed Yakumaru by the back of his collar, and amidst his speechless expression, walked in the direction Minato had left. "Let's go see how our Konoha's Three-Tails ravages these damn Kirigakure ninja!"

Those Kirigakure ninja who chased Obito and Rin were clearly one of the culprits behind this tragedy. Since she is currently unable to see through the truth behind the mist, she should let Kirigakure pay the price first.

Hyuga Yu and Kakashi, who remained where they were, exchanged a glance, and the former said, "I'll take you to the camp first."

"Thanks."

Using the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to the camp, Hyuga Hane glanced at Kakashi walking towards the medical unit's encampment, then turned and hurried towards a certain spot in the camp.

……

Hearing footsteps behind her, the girl sitting in the chair turned around with mixed feelings.

"Senior Yu."

Lin's lips moved, wanting to ask why the other person did such a thing, but thinking that she would have been dead if it weren't for their intervention, she couldn't bring herself to ask. She could only stammer, "..."

"Thank you for saving me."

"It was just an experiment, you don't need to thank me. How are you feeling?"

"...I'm a little weak, and it may take some time to recover."

Rin watched as Hinata Yu walked to the table, looked at the experiment log, and clenched her fists. "At the end, I think I saw Kakashi there. Senpai, you and Kakashi are teammates, so you should be together, right? Is Obito alright?"

Hinata Yu said calmly, "Physically, I'm very healthy. As for my mind, you know better than I do, don't you?"

"..."

Sometimes, the living suffer more than the dead.

How could she not know how sad Obito was?

Lin lowered her gaze and said with a wry smile, "If I had known back then that I was actually still alive, I would have told him."

"Obito will die there," Hyuga said.

Upon hearing this, Lin looked up and asked:

"Can you tell me the whole story?"

She doesn't know much.

Shortly after joining the medical unit, she was brought here by a ninja who demanded that she undergo an experiment.

Seeing Hinata Yu there, she agreed without much thought.

Surely the teacher's bodyguards wouldn't harm him?

And the result was exactly as she expected. Apart from being a little weak after waking up, there were no other changes.

only……

During the experiment, she was basically unconscious and had no idea that she had "split open"!

Her two bodies never met; each was assigned a different task: one stayed here, and the other returned to the medical unit to help.

It wasn't until recently, when her external body died and her memories returned, that Lin learned about her previous situation.

There were two versions of her living in this world, but she herself was completely unaware of it, and no one around her was aware of it either.

What a terrible drug...

After reviewing the experiment log, Hinata Yu added some notes, put it away, and looked at Nohara Rin, "Where do you want to start learning?"

Lin recalled the experiences of "another self" during this period, from the Hidden Mist Village's ambush on the medical team and her capture to Obito killing her.

She was silent for a moment, then murmured, "What happened to Obito after that?"

Approaching Rin, Hyuga Yu whispered, "He believed you were dead, and utterly despaired of the world, wanting revenge for you. So, in order to gain power, he attacked Kakashi, wanting to reclaim his other eye."

With each word Hyuga Yu spoke, Rin's face grew paler. When she heard that Obito and Kakashi were killing each other, her heart clenched, and she said in disbelief:

"A single Sharingan can only increase combat power to a limited extent; Obito wouldn't go that far for it..."

"The regular Sharingan won't work, but what about the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

Seeing Rin's confused look, Hyuga Yu explained calmly, "When an Uchiha with the three-tomoe Sharingan witnesses the death of their closest loved ones, they may gain even greater power—enough to control the Mangekyou Sharingan, a power sufficient to control tailed beasts!"
