Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 43 Obito is gone

Chapter 43: Obito is gone (Please continue reading)

"Haori, you've come."

At the Konoha camp in the Land of Grass, Minato Namikaze greeted Hagoromo with a warm smile.

"Sorry I'm a little late."

Yuri gave Minato Namikaze an apologetic look. He had indeed arrived a little late, just barely making it in time.

The distance from Konoha to the Land of Grass is not short, and since Hagoromo knew some of the actual circumstances of this mission, he was not in a hurry.

After all, he needed to think carefully about one thing: the identity of Uchiha Hikaru.

This problem is indeed troublesome if it is not resolved, especially after the war when Danzo will have the energy to turn his attention to this area, which will make things even more complicated.

Fortunately, Yuzhi also had an idea. The battlefield is the most chaotic place, and it is not difficult to find a suitable person and identity!

They chatted and laughed all the way to a small wooden house.

Kakashi, Rin, and others were already waiting here, along with many other ninjas.

Among them were many members of the Uchiha clan, and to Yuzhi's surprise, he actually saw that kid Uchiha Shisui!

"He came too? They really take this seriously."

Yuzhi muttered to herself, but upon closer reflection, it made perfect sense.

If the clan leader wants to compete for the Hokage position, then this operation will inevitably require the cooperation of the entire clan.

Especially since Fugaku Uchiha himself brought his eldest son to the front lines, both the hawks and doves will cooperate.

"Alright, everyone's basically here, let's begin."

After glancing at everyone present, Minato Namikaze spoke directly.

"This mission is very important and also very dangerous, but everyone here is a person who is aware and capable."

However, I still want to remind everyone to be careful, because in addition to searching for Kirigakure, you also need to be wary of Iwa ninja.

Everyone present nodded; they were well aware of the danger of this mission.

Just as Minato Namikaze said, they have all come to their own realization.

Seeing this, Minato Namikaze simply gave a few words of advice and rearranged the team.

He left everyone with a specially made kunai before departing, as he had other matters to attend to.

"Haori, it seems we've teamed up again."

After Minato Namikaze left, Kakashi and the others gathered around, and Rin said with some joy.

Yuri doesn't have a fixed team; last time, she teamed up with Kai and Aoba on a temporary basis.

Now that the two have returned to the team and were not called up for this mission, Yuzhi will have to form a new team.

Perhaps due to his experience fighting together last time, he did not team up with the Uchiha, but instead teamed up with Kakashi.

"So many people came to your house, I didn't expect you to not be with them."

Asuma, with a blade of grass in his mouth, shrugged and said something.

"They have a fixed team, so I won't get involved."

Upon seeing Asuma, Hagoromo couldn't help but ask jokingly.

"But you, I didn't expect you to come too. Isn't the Hokage worried about your safety?"

"Tch, just because that old man told me not to come, doesn't mean I won't come."

Asuma didn't mind Haori's teasing; he was used to this kind of thing.

Although his father was the Hokage, he did not "fully rely on his father".

Of course, this could be because the third generation wants him to set an example, or it could be that he has now entered his "rebellious phase".

Yuzhi remembered that this guy's rebellious period was very long and his rebelliousness was also very high.

"Oh, right, the haori."

Asuma glanced at Red beside him, and suddenly he thought of something and spoke up.

"We haven't had a chance before, so let's have a good competition this time and see who can find those Mist Ninja first!"

He had long wanted to compete with Yuzhi. Although Yuzhi used to be terrible, his reputation changed drastically after he went to the battlefield.

His mission to the Land of Grass in particular made him a hero of Konoha.

Many people in the village talk about him all the time, which makes Asma feel like he's hearing about "the neighbor's kid".

Most importantly, Hong talks about this guy all day long...

This made Asuma a little jealous, but he was also self-aware enough to know that he probably couldn't win in a fight, but finding someone shouldn't be too difficult, right?

"OK."

Yuri shrugged and smiled indifferently, but he still offered a reminder.

"Since you're interested, let's have a competition."

But as I said before, prioritize the task, and don't get carried away.

I believe you understand the significance of this mission for Konoha better than I do.

"I know."

Asuma pursed his lips, but in his heart he was thinking, "How can an Uchiha like you believe that old man's nonsense?"

Asuma's rebelliousness had its reasons; being born into the Hokage's family, he inevitably heard or witnessed many things.

These things also made him waver in his belief in the so-called "Will of Fire," and he eventually even became a rebel and became a "Daimyo Guardian Ninja."

After chatting for a while, the group left the camp after making their preparations.

Although Kakashi was nominally the captain of this operation, he was, after all, a genuine Jonin.

However, Kakashi clearly remembered the terrifying performance of Yuori behind enemy lines last time, so he was happy to follow Yuori's orders.

This made things much easier for Yuzhi, as she couldn't enter the Konoha camp right now, so she waited on the outskirts.

Yuri could easily lead Kakashi and the others in that direction, then let the light find them and follow behind.

"Haori, I didn't expect to be able to team up with you again so soon."

Three figures darted swiftly through the forest. Lin looked at Yuzhi and said with a smile.

"I wonder what I'll encounter this time. It should be a little better than last time."

"This time we don't need to go deep behind enemy lines, so the situation will naturally be much better than before, and the same thing will definitely not happen again!"

Kakashi nodded in agreement; the situation this time was much better than before.

Please, this mission actually happened again, and it's even worse than last time...

Yuzhi looked at the two of them and couldn't help but think to herself, "What do you mean?"

"Don't be too optimistic. If Kirigakure wants to sabotage the negotiations, the people they send are probably not simple characters."

He said it somewhat seriously, but in the end he laughed.

"But don't worry, I will protect you."

"Don't talk big. I'm a Jonin. It's my job to protect you."

"Haori-kun, I will protect you too."

Kakashi and Rin both spoke immediately upon hearing these words, their eyes filled with unwavering determination.

For them, Obito's matter was in the past.

Although they still feel bad because they failed to protect their companions.

But Yuri once told them that people should look forward.

Moreover, they must live on with the faith and will of their companions, so that when they enter the Pure Land, they can happily tell them that their efforts were not in vain.

Therefore, they all made a decision: they would never let what happened to Obito happen to them again!

The haori is not Obito, nor can it replace Obito.

However, in their hearts, Yuzhi had already subtly surpassed Obito!

Haori's gentleness, sensitivity, and humor, along with his intelligence and decisiveness when necessary, have deeply impressed them.

Moreover, having lost one Uchiha, they were given another by fate, which naturally made them cherish it even more.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. No matter what happens, we'll stand together."

Haori shrugged, then said with a smile.

"After all, we're comrades."

"That's right, we are comrades."

Kakashi and Rin nodded at the same time; that was enough.

The sunlight cast long shadows of the three of them.

The three of them looked like a real team that trusted each other.
