Some things can only be understood through experience; how can one understand light without experiencing true darkness?
Kakashi was reminded of his past self by Uchiha Sora's words. For a time, Kakashi felt like he was living in hell. However, he was puzzled as to how Uchiha Sora, who had never experienced it, knew so much about it.
Kong said with a profound and inscrutable expression, "There are people in the world called geniuses, who can know even without experiencing it."
[Kakashi has a familiar feeling; Ku is as shameless as ever.]
[Kong felt somewhat helpless. How could ordinary people understand his great heart and vision? The so-called senior Jonin was just an ordinary member of the masses.]
Kakashi felt a bit itchy to fight, and his previous urge to punch someone resurfaced. He hadn't expected Uchiha Ku's acting skills to be so refined; he was easily outmaneuvered.
Sora said, "Kakashi-sensei, the Akatsuki organization is still around, and I don't know how many strong members they have. If they can recruit a strong person like Uchiha Itachi, then the others are probably not weak either."
Furthermore, they were reportedly searching for Orochimaru because he had once been a member of the Akatsuki and had taken something from them.
Uchiha Sora has now mastered the art of diverting attention to an unparalleled degree, leaving no trace, like a gazelle's horns hanging in the air.
Kakashi didn't bother arguing with Ku. He had a pretty good grasp of Ku's temperament; aside from being annoying, he was a mature young man with his own principles.
Sora simply chuckled and said, "Although I, Uchiha Sora, am exceptionally talented, I also understand that sticking to one's principles is a fundamental element of becoming a strong person."
Kakashi sighed helplessly; he knew this would happen.
"I wonder what Akatsuki's ultimate goal is, the Nine-Tails? Or something else?" Kakashi asked, puzzled.
Uchiha rolled his eyes. Kakashi-sensei's topic change was so abrupt! Couldn't he have made a smooth transition? He's just an ordinary person after all; he doesn't have the fluency of a conversation with Nara Shikamaru at all.
[Alas, loneliness is like snow, and the higher one climbs, the colder it gets. Uchiha Sora felt somewhat alone.]
Kakashi kept his head down and kept going, too lazy to pay any attention to Uchiha Sora.
The sun rose high and then gradually set, the sky darkening, and the roars of beasts echoed through the forest as they began to emerge in search of food.
Kakashi stopped: "Rest for the night, and continue our journey tomorrow."
Since Jiraiya-senpai is alright, Kakashi isn't in a hurry to head to the Land of Rice Fields; he still needs to consider Uchiha Sora's stamina.
Kong nodded. After traveling all day, even if he wasn't physically tired, he was mentally exhausted.
Kakashi sat cross-legged against a large tree, eyes closed, seemingly lost in thought.
As the night slowly passed, the two opened their eyes almost simultaneously, ate some dry rations, and continued their journey.
Uchiha Sora's system space locked onto his surroundings, while occasionally checking on the situation of Jiraiya and the other two.
The three are searching for Orochimaru's new base, especially Naruto and Sakura, who are unusually proactive.
After searching the system space, traces of Kakuzu and Hidan were found.
Kong breathed a sigh of relief. Among the Akatsuki members, besides Obito and Kyo, the one he feared most was Itachi Uchiha.
This guy not only never tells the truth, but his strength has also always been unclear. Now is not the time to be critically ill three years from now.
Sora couldn't guess how much fighting power Itachi could unleash.
After Itachi comes Deidara, who can fly, and since Ku currently lacks lightning chakra, he can only passively take hits.
"Kakashi-sensei, we're almost at the border of the Land of Fire."
Kakashi nodded and said, "Be careful to stay hidden. Look for clues left behind by Jiraiya-senpai. Have you memorized all of Konoha's latest standard symbol codes?"
"Isn't this something you can learn after seeing it once? Do you really need to memorize it?"
[Pretending to be cool is like the wind that always accompanies me; Uchiha Ku never misses an opportunity to show off, while Kakashi could memorize the latest code for three consecutive days before he could completely remember it.]
Kakashi was speechless. Did they really need to praise one person after another? He was once hailed as a genius, but the reality check came so quickly.
Chapter 140 Obito's Information
Kakashi's expression darkened as he thought of his youth. His period of genius was accompanied by heart-wrenching sorrow, which at one point made him feel like he was living in hell.
[His father, Rin, Obito, his master and mistress, one by one they left him, making Kakashi believe that he was carrying a calamity. To this day, the voices and smiles of those relatives and friends can still be clearly seen in Kakashi's mind, bringing him endless pain.]
[Actually, Kakashi made a mistake: Obito Uchiha didn't die; he survived by sheer luck.]
Kakashi's calm expression changed instantly, his seriousness revealing his excitement.
Uchiha Sora frowned. He hadn't expected the narrator to reveal Obito Uchiha's information. This was clearly malicious.
Kong had long realized that the narrator was no good, always betraying his host.
"Where is Obito Uchiha? Why hasn't he returned to Konoha all these years?" Kakashi asked, somewhat agitated. He remembered that Obito's wish was to become Hokage.
Sora said, "Kakashi-sensei, you have lost the composure of a seasoned ninja. Don't let the narrator's words lead you astray."
Perhaps he had some ulterior motive, deliberately fabricating lies to deceive you, or setting a trap in his words.
Kakashi took a deep breath and said, "Ku, don't worry, I've been through hell. No matter what the narrator says, I can handle it."
The forest fell silent, save for the sound of the two figures moving on; the emotionless narration did not begin.
Kakashi frowned and said, "Narrator, where exactly is Obito? Why hasn't he returned to Konoha?"
[Because he witnessed the evil you committed with your lightning strike, and saw with his own eyes Rin Haruno die at your hands.]
A sudden explosion went through Kakashi's mind, his legs went weak, and he almost fell off the tree.
The scene that had caused him such heartache suddenly flashed through his mind.
[Obito Uchiha witnessed his beloved Rin die at the hands of his best friend, causing him to completely break down emotionally. Unable to accept Rin's death, he decided to create a world where Rin exists.]
From then on, Obito went into hiding, concealing his identity and orchestrating numerous conspiracies and schemes behind the scenes of the ninja world. Perhaps one of your seemingly insignificant enemies is actually Obito Uchiha in disguise.
Sora was speechless. Looking at Kakashi's emotional value, which had increased by nine, Sora thought, "The narrator is really a jerk. He actually gave Kakashi a strong dose of medicine at a time like this."
Kakashi leaned against a big tree, gazing absently at the distant sky.
Compared to the narrator, Sora felt he was much kinder; at least he never kicked someone when they were down.
Sora also saw the narrator's cleverness, revealing only part of the secret without mentioning that Obito had killed the Fourth Hokage and his wife.
It seems they're planning a second harvest later.
"Kakashi-sensei, you've now come out of hell, so you know that Obito's survival isn't a good thing, right?"
No matter what he becomes, at least you'll still have a chance to meet again, and you'll still have a chance to explain. That's better than regretting it for the rest of your life.
Uchiha Sora's ability to comfort people is completely inversely proportional to his skill at putting on airs; his feigned emotions reveal not a trace of sincerity.
[He showed no grief whatsoever when his own brother betrayed him; he is a hypocrite who has never shown any affection for anyone.]
"Narrator, you're talking nonsense. You're a narrator who has no emotions. What do you know about bonds or feelings?"
[Uchiha panicked, the narrator hit a nerve.]
Kong smiled and said, "Narrator, you are wrong. How could a program without thought possibly fathom my wisdom? Your words are like a drop of rain falling on a calm sea, without causing the slightest ripple."
My wisdom is higher than mountains and deeper than the sea; you should be able to sense that my emotions have not changed in the slightest.
Kakashi suddenly said, "Narrator, do you know where Obito is and what plan he's carrying out?"
Kakashi wanted to go find Obito right now, hoping to gain his forgiveness, even if it meant dying at Obito's hands.
Since the end of the Kannabi mission, Kakashi has been a walking corpse. He has only lived for a little over ten years now, and he desperately hopes to exchange his own death for Obito's repentance.
[What a cruel world! It makes some people live as if they are dead, while others die but live on in the hearts of others.]
Kong chuckled and said, "So the narrator also uses some seemingly profound but actually nonsensical words to show off."
However, without a program, it's still just a program; without human thought, even its pretentious attempts seem incongruous.
Kakashi took a deep breath, slowly stood up, and said, "Let's go, I'm alright now. Thank you for comforting me, Sora."
"It's nothing."
A gentle breeze ruffled Kakashi's white hair, and a hint of melancholy lingered in his calm eyes.
"Shh."
The two disappeared from the spot at the same time, disappearing into the forest.
The continued silence made Sora feel uneasy. Perhaps this was the Kakashi of the past. The narrator revealed information about Obito Uchiha, which reminded Kakashi of the past.
Kakashi will probably remain relatively silent for some time.
At noon, the two stopped at the same time. They were now in the Land of Fields, and there was a special code on a large tree in front of them.
"This is a code that Jiraiya wrote when he first entered the Land of Rice Fields. If we follow the code, it will be easy to find Jiraiya-senpai," Kakashi analyzed.
[Kakashi is overthinking it. With Orochimaru's cunning, how could he not see it? Throughout the Land of Rice Fields, Orochimaru has carved the same symbol in two different places, each leading to one of two traps.]
Following Jiraiya's coded signals will only lead to your demise; three paths marked by the signals intersect.
Sora said, "I didn't expect Orochimaru to be so powerful. Even if you don't know the meaning of the code, you can confuse people by copying it in different places and along different routes."
Orochimaru can no longer be viewed through the same lens as before, and the other members of the Truth Organization are all formidable figures.
Uchiha Sora was speechless. He hadn't quite understood why Orochimaru had never fled the Land of Rice Fields before, but it turned out he had powerful subordinates who allowed him to be unafraid of Jiraiya and the Akatsuki members.
"Kakashi-sensei, do you have any way to decipher the patterns drawn by Jiraiya-senpai?"
Kakashi shook his head.
Kongdao: "It seems the only option is to go directly into the Land of Fields and search slowly, or to try our luck by chance."
The narration didn't say that the three roads intersected, and that we would choose a different path once we reached the intersection.
"That's all we can do."
Kakashi seemed distracted, his mind preoccupied with Obito, wondering where Obito was hiding.
"Kakashi-sensei, it's very dangerous to have random thoughts while on a mission."
"Ugh, the narrator's been doing nothing all day. Why don't you experience the power of a smoke bomb to clear your head, or try smelling a poison gas grenade to distract yourself?"
