Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 28: Information about Uchiha Mumei, and Hagoromo's Decision! (Please continue reading)

"So it really was the old man who saved me. Thank you."

In the dimly lit basement, after communicating with Madara Uchiha, Obito finally understood the situation.

Obito had thought he was going to die, but he was surprised to find that he was still alive, which stirred his emotions.

As long as he's alive, that's all that matters. Only by living can he be with Rin and Kakashi again!

For him, being with the two of them is the most important thing.

Although the old man in front of him spoke strangely, Obito was still filled with gratitude.

"It's too early to say thank you now."

However, Madara shook his head slightly upon hearing this, and calmly looked at Obito.

"Don't worry, you'll repay me in the future."

"Um, later?"

Obito paused for a moment, then asked with some concern.

"Could it be that the old man intends for me to stay and work as a maid to take care of you?"

"That's also acceptable."

Madara nodded calmly, wanting to see Obito's reaction.

"No, I can't stay here forever!"

Obito was somewhat discouraged upon hearing this, but he still spoke up.

"The war is still raging in Konoha, and my comrades are still waiting for me."

"I finally awakened the Sharingan! Now I can finally protect my comrades better!"

"To better protect our companions?"

Ban shook his head slightly and sighed softly.

"With your current physical condition, I'm afraid you can no longer be a ninja."

Furthermore, why do you feel that your companion needs your protection?

"What?"

When faced with Madara's questioning, Obito's face clearly showed his dissatisfaction.

"This won't do, I'm sure I can recover."

I finally awakened my Sharingan, and I believe I can create even more spectacular teamwork with Kakashi!

"Face reality: there are unsatisfactory things everywhere in this world."

Madara remained calm, seemingly still showing some disdain for Obito's words.

"The longer I live, the more I feel that reality is filled with nothing but bitterness, pain, loneliness, and betrayal."

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

Obito was getting annoyed by Madara's incessant chatter; he really didn't understand what this old man, who looked like a lunatic, meant.

What I'm trying to say is very simple.

Madara didn't care about Obito's feelings; his voice remained low.

"Everything in this world is the same; where there is light, there is darkness; and where there are winners, there will always be losers."

Similarly, where there is love, there is hate; where there is trust, there is betrayal.

It was because of your serious injury that someone was saved, but will your efforts really pay off?

Will the people you saved truly remember you?

"you"

Obito fell silent after being asked this question by Madara, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.

But Obito quickly snorted and shouted at Madara.

"I don't care what you want to say, I'm leaving here no matter what!"

I am so grateful to you for saving me. I will come back if the war ends.

"Let's talk about that later, since it happened so long ago."

Madara interrupted Obito, slowly turning around and walking to the side.

"You're free to leave if you want, but I hope you remember this."

You and I are both betrayed, and both forgotten.

"I never imagined that the Uzumaki clan was once so glorious."

As the sun set, Kakashi and Haori left Kushina's house together.

Kakashi, however, had some mixed feelings along the way. Perhaps because he was still young, he didn't know much about the Uzumaki clan.

He had only seen some of it in textbooks, and some from his father when he was a child, and later from his teachers.

However, today, he also accompanied Yuzhi to learn about the Uzumaki clan.

"Yes, the Uzumaki clan was indeed very glorious in the past, but the ending is a bit of a pity."

Yuzhi nodded. Although he said he felt sorry, he was actually very excited inside!

During their visit to Kushina Uzumaki's house, they didn't discuss sealing techniques in much detail.

With Kushina's consent, Hagoromo began to seriously peruse the history books of the Uzumaki clan.

He looked at it very carefully and attentively, and his actions piqued Kakashi's interest.

Kushina found it somewhat strange that a Uchiha named Hagoromo would be interested in her family's history.

After all, the Uchiha and Uzumaki clans have never been on good terms, and they have clashed many times.

However, as she said, it's not a bad thing that some people are willing to remember the history of the vortex, even former enemies.

And so an afternoon passed, and L-Haori found the information she wanted while seemingly casually flipping through the pages!

"Although it's from over a hundred years ago and the records are very blurry, the content is quite interesting."

According to the records, the Senju clan led other clans to find the Uzumaki clan, and they eventually joined forces.

Their target wasn't specified, nor was the extent of the loss clearly stated, but one sentence ultimately caught Yuzhi's attention.

"Operation Akizuki Valley was ultimately successful and dealt a heavy blow to the arrogance of the Uchiha clan."

Based on the timeline, this is quite close to the record in the Uchiha clan's dossier, and there is also an interesting piece of supporting evidence.

"Prior to this, neither the Senju nor the Uzumaki had any notable achievements against the Uchiha, but this time it's written like this."

This makes it hard not to evoke certain associations in the haori!

"Yes, that's a real shame. No wonder Kushina-sensei said that."

Just as Haori was pondering, Kakashi sighed and then asked with some curiosity.

"Haori, do you enjoy reading history?"

I'd say I like it.

Yu Zhi shrugged. As a time traveler, history was a subject he had to study.

"Understanding history allows us to know about the development and changes in the world, and thus understand why we have come to this point."

Just like the Whirlpool Clan this time, through history we know its past glory and how it has fallen into decline.

This also allows us to learn a lot from historical experience, thereby continuously improving ourselves.

Of course, it also allows us to remember some people or events that have disappeared into the annals of history, doesn't it?

Yuzhi's words were based on something that almost everyone had heard when he studied history in his previous life.

But for Kakashi, these words were somewhat thought-provoking, especially the last sentence, which left him speechless.

Perhaps he was thinking of his father, or perhaps he was thinking of Obito.

Yu Zhi's eyes also flickered, as if in the history he had learned in his previous life, the "remnants of the previous dynasty" never had a good ending.

Since I'm going to be a traitor to my family, why not go all the way?

Uchiha Setsuke and his hawkish associates clearly wouldn't pay any attention to the Haori; in fact, they'd probably rather control it.

Moreover, the influence they can exert is so great that it is a cause for concern.

Why did the Americans across the ocean kill the person who shouted "I have a dream" in the previous life of Yuzhi? The reason is simple.

If his appeals can get those black men to put on suits and protest peacefully, what if his appeals could get them to pick up guns?

"It seems that understanding history is indeed a very important thing."

Kakashi suddenly took a deep breath, and then he spoke seriously.

"Haori, I think I understand."

"Yes, I think I understand now."

Yuzhi nodded slightly, his gaze becoming exceptionally firm at that moment.

Although this was extremely excessive, it was the best option for him, a traitor.

Just then, new information appeared in his system.

[A new side quest has been obtained]

The groundwork is finally laid, time to get moving, and start recruiting!

As a newbie, I'm begging you to follow along! Following along now will determine everything about a book; neglecting a book too long can easily kill it.

Thank you all, Onz
