Late at night, east of Konoha Village.
At the end of a large forest, on the edge of a cliff above the inland sea.
Two figures were sitting on the rough rocks, silent together.
On the left: Obito's face was red and swollen, as if he had just been violently beaten, with only a three-magatama Sharingan left eye left.
On the right: Master Ban is holding a six-ply tin staff and looking happy after the incident.
obviously.
Madara vented his anger on Obito.
The depression in my heart was indeed relieved a lot.
Sure enough, human happiness is always based on the pain of others.
If he can't bully Hashirama and Natsume now, can't he still bully Obito?
"cough--"
Obito spat out a mouthful of blood and continued to remain silent.
He didn't resist Madara's roughness.
Not knowing means knowing that you are unable to resist;
Still so used to it that I became numb;
Or perhaps both...
In short, he just accepted his fate and acted like a mess.
…
"How's it going? Isn't it uncomfortable to feel like your ideals are shattered?"
Madara asked suddenly and unexpectedly.
"Hmph! You should be feeling more uncomfortable than me now, right?"
"I didn't expect that the great Madara Uchiha would be tricked by Black Zetsu..."
"Compared to me, you are more of a fool..."
Obito's retort was unceremonious, piercing Madara's heart and touching his arrogance.
Banye took a deep breath:
"Your mouth is getting worse and worse..."
"Did you learn from that beast Tobirama?"
"You said yes, you also want to die?"
Obito's face was swollen, but it still didn't prevent him from giving Madara a contemptuous glance and said firmly:
"Come on, kill me if you dare."
"I have no nostalgia for this world anymore..."
"Just in time, I can still let my death prove Master Madara's stupidity..."
After knowing that [Moon Eye Project] is also a scam.
Obito lost all hope.
Now, he is no longer afraid of death.
In other words, I wish I could just die to leave this hellish sinful world.
To this.
Madara was silent for several seconds, seemingly considering how to kill Obito.
However, in the end he did not take action.
After all, look at the ninja world.
At this moment, only Obito is the most similar to me; the same loneliness, the same disillusionment of ideals, the same hesitation...
Killing Obito is easy, but escaping loneliness is hard to come by.
What's more, there is no point in killing Obito now...
Might as well stay and be a 'sandbag'.
"No nostalgia?"
"The fact that you come here is a kind of nostalgia in itself, right?"
Madara sneered and started to retaliate.
Obito's pupils shrank and he was slightly startled.
Yes, this is not just any place.
And that was the place where Nohara Lin died!
It was also the place where he opened his kaleidoscope in anger and killed all the Kirigakure ninjas.
Even after many years.
You can still clearly see here the traces of my battle back then...
Those stone slabs that were trampled to pieces, the withered bones of ninjas that were nailed to death with wooden cuttings...
All of them stimulated Obito's nerves, making him involuntarily recall the good times of his youth...
And that's why he came here alone.
If the ninjas of Konoha come after them; or if that brat Natsume comes seeking revenge.
Obito was not going to resist;
I just wish I could die in the same place as Lin.
It’s already pretty good…
only.
He also didn't expect Konoha's pursuers to arrive.
Instead, Madara, the bastard, came.
…
"Isn't this nostalgia and love of mine destroyed by your own hands?"
"Now that things have happened, do you still want to put on a show?"
Obito scolded coldly.
No matter how many years have passed, Lin's tragic death is an indelible pain in his heart.
"It seems that you already know everything?"
Madara sighed, not surprised.
At the beginning, Madara relied on genjutsu to control the third generation of Mizukage and dominate [Kirigakure Village].
Subsequently, Obito followed Madara's example and also controlled the fourth generation Mizukage after Yagura.
Naturally I guessed:
Back then [the incident where the three tails were sealed in Lin's body and she was preparing to attack Konoha], Madara must be behind it.
Otherwise, it makes no sense at all.
[Mist Hidden Village] would be so crazy that they would take risks with their own tailed beasts...
Therefore, Madara was not surprised that Obito could guess the truth.
"How? Hate me?"
"Do you want to kill me to avenge your beloved?"
Madara asked lightly.
To be honest, with his current 'Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki' body, even if he was stabbed a hundred times, his life would not be in danger.
If necessary, he didn't mind letting Obito use his body to vent.
Obito withdrew his gaze and looked at the sea ahead.
He continued in a calm tone:
"I hate you……"
"But I hate the world even more."
"A world dominated by ninjas, where the weak eat the strong, where strife is constant, and greed is rampant..."
"It was this world that killed Lin!"
"If the world doesn't change, even if Lin didn't die that night, she would have died on other missions..."
Spot nodded:
"So you want to change the world and use [Infinite Tsukuyomi] to create a beautiful world without war?"
Obito also nodded:
"Yes."
"It's just that this is no longer possible..."
"What bullshit [Eye of the Moon]! It's just a scam."
"There is no cure for a world so full of illusions..."
this moment.
Obito also suddenly understood how Kisame had felt.
This world is really full of illusions!
…
"Nohara Lin..."
"He is indeed a good ninja!"
"Unfortunately, I didn't have much choice at the beginning."
"As I approach the end of my lifespan, my sanity has become crazy."
"What's more, love and so on; in my opinion, it is a kind of illusion."
"Hashirama's so-called love is always short-lived;"
"Only pain and desire are the original sins of the ninja world."
Banye narrated to himself and sighed.
Hashirama has been pursuing his whole life: to use the power of love and mutual understanding to change the ninja world.
And Madara has also pursued his whole life: trying to use more powerful power to erase pain and desire and change the world.
Unfortunately, until now.
Neither succeeded.
And my feelings about Madara.
Obito only glanced at it, but his eyes were full of contempt.
What does it mean that love is just illusion?
What does it mean not to understand love?
Did he really think that the world couldn't see the deep affection between him and Hashirama?
If one of them is a woman...
Don’t talk about Konoha;
Not even the entire ninja world can stop the raging love between them...
Pooh!
Double standards!
shameless!
Of course, Obito didn't curse out what was in his heart.
If you really cursed.
I'm afraid tonight I will have to 'can't live, can't die'...
Obito wanted to die, but he didn't want to be tortured to the point of death.
…
