Konoha: Who's the good guy?

Yamanaka Keigo carefully memorized the details of the Iron Country map in his memory palace, and repeatedly reviewed the sketches of the mountain graveyards before putting the documents back into the file folder.

The documents were archived, bidding farewell to San De, who was still patiently sorting through fragmented information and rewriting intelligence.

Yamanaka Kei retrieved the black umbrella, suppressed his restless heart, bid farewell to the intelligence department members, and once again stepped into the rain.

To obtain accurate information about Madara Uchiha's hiding place so quickly was a complete surprise to him.

Similarly, he wasn't planning to go looking for trouble with the other party today.

That was Madara Uchiha, after all!

Whether it's the memories from the original works or the family records of the mountain clan.

Everything speaks to this man's strength!

A powerful taijutsu honed through countless trials, a terrifying fire jutsu that incinerates everything, an unparalleled Susanoo, and a world-destroying Heavenly Meteor...

This is a man whose name alone can make the entire ninja world tremble.

Even if Yamanaka Kei had a hole in his head like Danzo, he wouldn't recklessly rush in without considering the consequences just because he received the news.

The light rain continued to fall.

The misty rain and fog, like smoke and gauze, made the distant Fire Shadow Rock appear somewhat hazy.

"Meow~ Meow meow~!"

While lost in thought amidst the mountain scenery.

The urgent meows and the sound of overturned objects, mixed with a series of footsteps wading through puddles, came from the alleyway on the left.

A slender calico darts, its face filled with panic, darted out of the alley.

He darted to the other side of the street after a few turns and haphazardly piled up a three-meter-high heap of miscellaneous items in the corner.

And after the three flowers disappeared.

Three young ninjas, who looked to be under ten years old and had youthful faces, chased after them from the alley, their clothes soaked through.

"Damn it! It got lost again! That cat is so cunning!"

Obito Uchiha complained with a face full of resentment.

"If it weren't for some idiot insisting on wearing goggles in the rain and then yelling that he'd been hit by a mist concealment technique after spotting the target, the mission would have been accomplished."

Kakashi Hatake mocked Obito's unreliability.

A pair of lifeless, emotionless eyes scanned every corner of the street.

They wanted to find any clues as to how the cat escaped.

"Damn it! If I hadn't found that cat first, you still wouldn't have seen the mission target!"

Obito Uchiha felt he had lost face and immediately turned red.

Just as she was about to roll up her sleeves and have a serious talk with Kakashi Hatake, Rin Nohara stepped forward, stood between the two, and began to mediate in a soft voice.

"Okay, okay~ It's alright! Let's keep trying!"

Obito Uchiha reluctantly turned his head and gave a soft snort.

Kakashi Hatake's gaze didn't linger on Obito for even a second.

His eyes scanned every alleyway, every step, and every hiding place for the cat, searching for any trace of the mission target.

"Huh?! Senior Yamanaka Kei!"

As soon as Obito Uchiha turned his head, he immediately noticed the mountain scenery not far away, where someone was holding an umbrella and watching the three of them.

He, Kakashi, and Rin Nohara had previously visited the Jonin apartment where Minato Namikaze now lived.

While browsing through the photo album, I saw many photos of Minato-sensei and this senior, Yamanaka Kei.

There are photos of them entering the Ninja Academy together, photos of them graduating from the Ninja Academy, and photos of them both surviving the Second Shinobi World War, covered in wounds...

According to Minato-sensei.

This person was his closest friend, someone he could entrust his life to!

Thinking of this, Obito Uchiha smiled brightly and jogged over to Yamanaka Keishin.

"Senior Kei! I am Obito Uchiha, a disciple of Minato Namikaze! Did you see a cat with three different colored markings run by here just now?"

"A pile of junk".

Looking at the child with a bright, sunny smile, a subtle, complex emotion flickered in Yamanaka's eyes. He then pointed to a pile of junk where a cat was hiding.

......

Name: Uchiha Obito

Occupation: Ninja

Entry: Deeply affectionate (blue), kind (green), friend of the elderly (white), wise second (gray)

......

There are no malicious entries like those for Danzo Shimura, who is clearly a villain.

There are no overpowered, talent-related attributes either.

Being truly emotional and genuine means being authentic, unpretentious, and rich in feelings, enhancing spiritual energy growth, and slightly increasing the power of Fire Release and the ability to unleash power in times of crisis.

A kind, pure, and simple heart increases approachability and improves interpersonal relationships.

Being a friend of the elderly significantly increases the likelihood of encountering people over 50, increases the probability of being late, and greatly improves the elderly's goodwill towards you after helping them.

Xian Er's independent thinking ability has declined, making him prone to making some foolish decisions.

Foolish, kind, unpretentious, genuine, popular with the elderly, and capable of turning into a monster in a crisis...

These personality traits—aren't they typical of a shonen manga protagonist?

As long as they grow up normally and gradually.

With the encouragement of teachers, the companionship of peers, and the care of those around them.

Even if they can't become heroes who save the world, people with this title should still be the kind of characters who shine with the light of humanity!

Who could believe that this person would later become a "birth"?

"Kenji..."

Looking at the three people not far away, Shan Zhongjing felt somewhat sentimental about the cruel twists of fate.

To be honest, he had considered whether or not to just kill Obito Uchiha.

However, one could kill a child who has not made a mistake because of something that has not happened.

This somewhat violated his conscience.

Secondly, Madara Uchiha didn't want Obito Uchiha.

He was merely a tool that could be brainwashed and used to carry out the Eye of the Moon Project according to his instructions.

Obito's "Awakening Talent" might be good, but it's definitely not the only option.

Even if he dies, he'll appear in the future with water, fire, thunder, and girls...

But, really, we won't intervene?

Shan Zhongjing glanced at the "Brother, you smell so good" entry on the system interface.

In the original work, Obito was completely brainwashed and determined to carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan because he witnessed his beloved Rin Nohara having her heart ripped out by Kakashi.

if......

Was Kakashi Obito's sweetheart?

"...My damned moral fastidiousness, how can I not bring myself to do something so tempting?"

Shan Zhongjing glanced at his personal panel several times, noticing the unactivated entry for "Brother, you smell so good".

I stood there, secretly conflicted for a while.

Not far away.

Kakashi summoned three ninja dogs using the Summoning Jutsu, and together with Rin Nohara, they blocked the calico cat's escape route on the ground.

He jumped onto the roof to prevent the calico cat from escaping from a height.

While arguing with Kakashi, Obito Uchiha started moving the junk in the pile, trying to force the calico cat out.

When Sanhua realized that her hiding place was no longer safe, she jumped out from the pile of debris.

Obito reacted quickly, crouching down and lunging to hug Sanhua. Before he could even gloat, he crashed headfirst into a pile of junk.

Boom!

The already haphazardly piled-up junk collapsed with a roar, burying people and cats alive underneath.

The continuous raindrops couldn't cover up the huge plume of smoke and dust that rose up.

Yamanaka Kei had a pained expression on his face.

Obito closed his eyes and sensed the bottom of the pile of debris. He knew he had been hit quite hard, but he still forced himself to bend over to protect the kitten in his arms.

He sighed inwardly.

"Obito, always be kind from now on!"
