Honkai Impact 3rd: This is how Obito and Rin used it

Nohara Rin hesitated for a moment, then said in a barely audible voice, "Tomorrow... I'll go check it out tomorrow."

"Maybe we'll be lucky and find some tadpoles tomorrow."

Shenyue Xingyun: "...Okay."

Nohara Rin lowered her head and closed the door.

I had a good night's sleep.

The next day, Nohara Rin went out full of energy.

She was quite excited, skipping and jumping all the way. Everywhere she looked was beautiful, and even the ordinary flowers and plants in Konoha seemed exceptionally vibrant today.

However, when she regrouped with the team, she noticed something was wrong.

Obito Uchiha seems out of sorts.

In the past, whether they were cultivating or doing missions together, the other person would always be chattering away and talking mysteriously. But today, the other person seemed to be constantly distracted.

When you call out to him, he will only respond a fraction of a second later. When you don't call him, he just stares blankly at the ground, as if he has lost his soul.

Nohara Rin showed concern for the other person as usual, but the smile the other person gave in response seemed somewhat bitter.

The astute Nohara Rin sensed something and was worried about the other person, but after hesitating for a long time, she ultimately said nothing.

After all, the other person is a boy, and some of his growth experiences are necessary.

Chapter 80 A Cut on the Tongue is Like a Knife

Obito Uchiha wasn't stupid.

He knew that no matter how hard he tried to disguise it, he couldn't act as naturally as usual, and he also knew that Yi Ye's meticulousness would definitely notice his mistake.

But after Nohara Rin asked a few words of concern and then stopped asking, he felt as if a layer of white frost had fallen on his parched heart.

I feel so bad.

So cold.

Ah ~

Despite the bright sunshine, Obito Uchiha felt a chill seep into his very soul, as if he were isolated from the entire world.

Alright alright.

Let me wither away quietly in this ruin.

Obito Uchiha sat on the ground, hugging his knees, silently enjoying the quiet of being alone.

"You must have discovered something." A sudden voice rang in his ears, startling Obito Uchiha! He jumped up and found Kakashi Hatake standing beside him with a short sword in his hand.

"Are you crazy?!" Obito Uchiha exclaimed, both saddened and angry. "Can you please stop talking behind people's backs?!"

Kakashi Hatake calmly looked at the enraged Obito Uchiha and said, "Have you realized that what I said was true?"

Obito Uchiha, panting heavily, said, "It's none of your business."

Kakashi Hatake: "I know, you must know something."

"Lin definitely knows what you know."

"But she didn't say much. Why? Because she doesn't like you."

Obito Uchiha's cheek twitched.

"Get out of the way."

Kakashi Hatake: "Give up."

Obito Uchiha suddenly looked up: "I don't understand what you're saying."

Kakashi Hatake said, "I'm telling you, give up. Rin will never like you."

Obito Uchiha's eyelids also began to twitch.

Kakashi Hatake: "Although I don't really like Shingetsu Seiun either, objectively speaking, he's a bit too good-looking."

"If you stand next to Shenyue Xingyun, any girl who isn't blind will know which one to choose."

Obito Uchiha's breathing became increasingly heavy.

He said, slowly and deliberately, "Lin is not that kind of superficial girl."

“Superficial?” Kakashi Hatake smirked. “Is liking pretty things superficial? I don’t think so.”

"Imagine if Shenyue Xingyun were a girl. With softer facial features, more curves, and a voice like Lin's."

"Wearing a pale yellow dress, she stands in front of you, smiling at you. Could you resist?"

As Kakashi Hatake narrated, images automatically flashed through Obito Uchiha's mind. What if there was a girl with an ethereal, fairy-like face…

He shook his head violently: "Pah!"

"No one is as fickle as him!"

Kakashi Hatake sneered: "Playboy?"

If a seductive, womanizing woman stood in front of you, would you reject her because of her womanizing ways?

I don't think so.

Obito Uchiha wanted to retort, but Kakashi Hatake continued speaking.

"You think you're the only good boy in the ninja world who isn't a womanizer?"

Do you think you don't care about looks?

"If you don't care about looks, why do you like Lin? If you don't care about looks, do you value character? Why don't you like the old lady you helped?"

Obito Uchiha opened his mouth.

I wanted to refute it, but found myself at a loss for words.

Don't you value looks?

Don't you value it?

The answer was in his heart, but he was unwilling to admit it.

Only one voice kept echoing in my heart.

Shenyue Xingyun is a womanizer and a scumbag! Shenyue Xingyun is a womanizer and a scumbag! Shenyue Xingyun is a womanizer and a scumbag…

Kakashi Hatake's devilish voice continued: "Admit it."

"Aside from your wishful thinking in belittling the other person with the so-called 'womanizing' reason, in reality, you are not even on the same level as each other."

"If Shingetsu Nebula were to lower his standards for looks, the women who wanted to be with him would be lining up from the Valley of the End to the Hokage Rock."

"And if you dare to tell any girl that you have two girlfriends, she will slap you without hesitation."

"This is a fundamental difference."

So, give up.

Obito Uchiha remained silent.

With increasingly heavy breathing, he stared straight at Kakashi Hatake, and as red light began to flash in his eyes, a single tomoe appeared and spun.

Kakashi Hatake's eyes narrowed for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.

He smiled slightly and said, "Not bad."

"Now, if we face the Divine Moon Nebula, we have a better chance of winning."

Sensing the murderous intent and targeting in Obito Uchiha's eyes, he smiled slightly, and the short sword in his arms flashed out with a cold light.

"What? Want to fight me?"

It's just a single tomoe.

He might still be wary if it were a three-tomoe Uchiha, but a single-tomoe Uchiha, plus Obito Uchiha's intellect.

No threat whatsoever.

To his disappointment, Obito Uchiha ultimately did not make a move.

As the red light of his Sharingan faded, he sighed softly to himself.

I was originally planning to do some exercise.

Forget it.

Considering the other person's emotional distress, let's leave it at that—let's leave it at that that we're not going to treat them to anything.

……

While Obito Uchiha was immersed in persistent grief, Rin Nohara felt an inexhaustible surge of energy.

She felt a warm glow inside, as if she were looking forward to every minute and every second after the mission was over.

Looking forward to the night.

I'm looking forward to the Chunin Exams, and to every day I'll spend in Konoha from now on.

My heart was warm and pounding with excitement—a thrilling feeling born from the anticipation of the joy that was about to arrive.

She had never felt this kind of anticipation before.

Whenever she thinks of Shenyue Xingyun's smile, she can't help but smile back, and sometimes she even twirls her hands and laughs out loud.

She felt that Shenyue Xingyun was a gift from heaven, and the only thing that bothered her was his girlfriend.

Her plan was to let Shenyue Xingyun feel her kindness and sincerity, and to influence her with her inclusive love. In fact, that's exactly what she did.

Shingetsu Seiun could sense that Nohara Rin would bring him carefully prepared bento boxes, tell him interesting stories from her daily missions, and mend his torn ninja outfit. He could feel Nohara Rin's gentleness, her shyness, and the budding love in her heart.

Occasionally, Nohara Rin would subtly mention his girlfriends. Whenever this happened, Kamitsuki Seiun's feelings were complicated.

Sometimes he felt he had indeed gone too far: the girl's love was genuine, while his motives were impure. Other times, he felt he hadn't done anything wrong: "I may be a womanizer, but I haven't lied to you. I may be a jerk, but I will change your tragic fate of dying in the Third Shinobi World War and give you a happy new life."

As her heartbeat gradually calmed down, Nohara Rin asked, "Nebula, what kind of people are they?"

Shenyue Xingyun replied, "Lin, there are some things you shouldn't ask about."

"Mutual trust and respect are good for all of us."
