Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 37 Friends (Please continue reading)

The next morning.

The girl lying on the bed trembled slightly with her eyelashes, and then opened her eyes.

"Wow, she's sleeping so soundly!"

The girl looked around before sitting up.

Only then did she realize that she was lying in bed, and that there were sheets and blankets on the ground not far away.

"Do you sleep on the floor by yourself?"

She seemed to understand everything now, and she found that she had slept quite soundly last night.

Even though it's the same as before, she still keeps having the same nightmares once she falls asleep.

The hideous faces of those Uchiha clan members still appear in her dreams.

But this time, she didn't feel that intense fear. She seemed to be able to face everything calmly, which was something she hadn't expected.

She shook her head and stood up, trying to find Yuzhi.

But strangely, the room was unusually quiet, which made her frown.

But when she got to the table, she suddenly noticed that breakfast had been prepared in advance, along with a note.

She was a little puzzled, then picked up the note and started reading.

Sorry, you were sleeping so soundly, so I didn't want to disturb you.

I have to get up early to attend the village funeral today.

However, I've prepared some breakfast for you, remember to eat it.

Your body is still quite weak; I hope you recover soon.

Your friend: Haori

"Friends?"

She put down the note and murmured something under her breath.

She looked up and gazed out the window.

Although the weather wasn't good today, with a gloomy sky and rain falling.

But the drizzle seemed to be cleansing her soul, giving her a unique sense of peace.

"These are some really unfamiliar words."

-

"Ugh, how boring. Every time I wake up, I wish it were all a dream."

In the dimly lit underground base of the Land of Grass, Obito sighed helplessly; he himself couldn't even remember how many times this had happened.

However, he still held some hope in his heart. Since he was not dead, he must return to Kakashi and Rin's side!

So even though he has almost lost half of his body, he has been working hard to improve his balance and coordination.

He believed that he would definitely recover.

"Yo, Obito-kun, good morning!"

At this moment, the figure with the swirling face appeared right on time, waving and greeting Obito.

"Getting up so early, are you going to start exercising again?"

"Hello, swirl face."

Obito said listlessly, then stood up.

"Yeah, I need to leave here as soon as possible. I can't stand this place!"

"Obito-kun, who are Rin and Kakashi?"

Just then, another White Zetsu appeared beside him, asking with a curious expression.

"So, you want to go outside and touch the bells?"

"Oh, and there are plenty of idiots, idiots, idiots, and more idiots."

At this moment, White Zetsu with his swirling face touched his chin and said with a look of reminiscence.

"Occasionally, there will be idiots like Kakashi mixed in. By the way, what is an idiot Kakashi?"

I remember this being repeated over and over since you arrived: Do they owe you a lot of money?

"How embarrassing that I would talk like that in my sleep."

Obito looked embarrassed, but just as he was about to change the subject, the vortex-faced man spoke up again.

"By the way, you seem to only be talking about them. Don't you have any other friends?"

"Forehead"

This question momentarily stunned Obito. He seemed to think of Minato Namikaze, and Kushina, who had taken good care of him.

But he quickly shook his head and spoke before the vortex-faced man could say anything more.

"Why do I only see the two of you today? Where are the others?"

During this time, he also saw quite a few White Zetsu.

Those people all looked exactly alike, and many of them would chat with me.

Even though they were all like idiots, Obito still managed to get along quite well with them.

"They've gone out to gather intelligence," another White Zetsu casually replied.

"What? They can get out?" Obito's face showed surprise; he really didn't know that.

"Hey, didn't I mention that to you?"

Bai Jue scratched his head, thought for a moment, and then began to explain.

"We can move through the soil, so we can go out. We've been sent out to gather intelligence for a long time."

Actually, we can see you fighting and all that, we just don't get involved.

"Honestly, why are you only telling me now? It's so important."

Obito clenched his fist, then quickly asked.

"So, do you know about Kakashi and the others? They're my teammates!"

You must have seen me when you rescued me!

"You mean, the guy with the white hair, and the girl with the brown hair?"

The man with the swirling face looked at Obito with curiosity, then stroked his chin as if lost in memories.

"If it's them, then I actually know quite a bit about them."

After all, they had been following Yuzhi all along, and Kakashi and Rin were right beside her, so it was hard not to know about this.

The words of the vortex-faced man immediately excited Obito. Although he couldn't get out, it was still good for Obito to learn about them!

"Tell me quickly, how are they doing? They're my best friends!"

Obito asked excitedly, eager to know the whole story.

"They must be feeling terrible right now, after all, they've lost their best friend."

"It's okay, I'll definitely speed up my recovery so I can get back to them soon!"

"Well, although I don't want to interrupt your fantasy, well..."

Seeing that Obito seemed to be lost in his own world, the swirling-faced man scratched his face and finally said with a hint of helplessness.

"They are all doing well now. There is sadness, of course, there was some sadness after you were buried."

However, they recovered quickly, thanks to a kind and strong person who arrived in time to save them.

And afterwards, he even went on missions with them and constantly encouraged them.

Upon hearing the words of the vortex-faced man, Obito's body stiffened slightly. Had Kakashi and Rin already recovered?

What... what exactly is this?

"Is that the teacher? Is it Minato Namikaze?"

Obito pursed his lips and forced a smile as he asked.

"If she's a teacher, then she's indeed very gentle and very capable."

"It's not him, it's someone like you, a member of the Uchiha clan."

White Zetsu, standing next to Obito with the vortex-shaped face, peeked out, looked at Obito, shrugged, and smiled.

"That guy is much better looking than you. He is indeed very gentle and capable. He saved your former teammates."

And it wasn't just one rescue; their relationship seems to be very good, even better than yours back then.

Oh, right, wasn't that guy's name Haori?

Haori

It's you again!

At this moment, Obito really couldn't hold back anymore. Why was it this guy who saved Kakashi and the others? Why him?

Suddenly, he remembered something Ban had said to him before.

"Both you and I are betrayed, and both are forgotten."

Obito clenched his fists tighter and tighter, and those words kept echoing in his mind.

After a while, he suddenly raised his head, his eyes turning incredibly bloodshot.

"I don't believe it! I'm going to go out and ask them properly!"
