Naruto: From Kushina Uzumaki onwards, a traitor

Chapter 163 Senba and Uchiha Obito

Faced with Minato Namikaze's assessment of the Uchiha clan, Obito Uchiha could only lower his head in shame.

Minato Namikaze continued to tell Obito Uchiha about Chiba.

"Chiba is not recognized by the Uchiha clan, but he still possesses the bloodline of the Uchiha clan, which is an indelible fact."

This led the villagers to vent their resentment towards the Uchiha clan on Chiba.

So, back then, Chiba... how should I put it, was having a very bad time.

Obito Uchiha imagined the scene: a five-year-old child, all alone, without family, living by himself, and being bullied by the villagers...

Just thinking about it makes me feel so frustrated.

Minato Namikaze continued, "Because of this experience, Chiba became a very extreme person. She doesn't trust her comrades and is cold to everyone, especially me. Because I did something wrong back then, Chiba has been very unhappy with me for the past ten years."

Obito Uchiha asked curiously, "What could have made Lord Chiba dislike the teacher for over ten years?"

Minato Namikaze looked somewhat helpless: "This brings us to someone who is very important to Chiba, Kushina Uzumaki."

If it weren't for Kushina, I would have thought that Chiba was a person without feelings.

Chiba was very cold to everyone, but he was an exception to Kushina.

Back then, a student from the ninja academy, along with his older brother, a genin, went looking for trouble with Kushina.

I didn't choose to help Kushina back then, but instead helped that student and the genin, which is why Chiba still hates me now.

That time, if Jiraiya-sensei hadn't arrived in time, Chiba might have crippled my arm.

Obito Uchiha exclaimed, "Was Lord Senba already this strong back then? But Lord Jiraiya said that our teacher was also very strong back then, so how come he almost lost an arm to Lord Senba?"

Minato Namikaze smiled wryly, "Back then, I was no match for Chiba. When Chiba was in the Ninja Academy, he had already mastered the Lightning Breathing ninjutsu. I sparred with Chiba many times, and I always lost. It wasn't until the war started and I learned the Flying Thunder God Technique that things improved a bit."

Obito Uchiha nodded vigorously and said, "A teacher who has mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique will surely be invincible!"

Minato Namikaze shook his head: "No, after I learned the Flying Thunder God Technique, I sparred with Chiba once, and I lost that time."

Obito Uchiha's eyes widened in disbelief. "Even with your speed, Master, Lord Senba can beat you?"

Minato Namikaze nodded and said, "Yes, and Chiba won easily that time. Chiba's battle intelligence is quite outstanding. You could say I was completely crushed. I haven't sparred with Chiba since then."

Obito Uchiha was somewhat bewildered but impressed: "I've never seen Lord Senba fight, but Lord Senba, who has awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, the strongest eye of the Uchiha clan, must be incredibly powerful."

Minato Namikaze solemnly warned, "Obito, you must remember one thing: never confuse Chiba with the Uchiha clan in front of Chiba, otherwise you may be retaliated against by Chiba!"

Chiyu is extremely cold to others, but he's ruthless towards the Uchiha clan. If he finds anything wrong with you, he'll definitely take action against you!

Obito Uchiha swallowed nervously and replied somewhat fearfully, "I...I understand."

Minato Namikaze lowered his head slightly and said in a low voice, "Chiba is really incompatible with me. He is biased, arrogant, cruel, extreme, has no concept of comrades, and is quite indifferent. When faced with a comrade's plea for help, he will not think about helping the comrade, but about how to use him."

Back then, Daigo was severely injured and begged Chiba to save him, but Chiba gave him an explosive tag and told him to go and take the enemy down with him. I still vividly remember the despair on Daigo's face...

Obito Uchiha's mouth gaped slightly, somewhat incredulous.

Give the explosive tag to the wounded soldier and let him go and take the enemy down with him?

What kind of living Yama is this?!

Minato Namikaze sighed, "When I said I was worried about Chiba, I was worried that Kakashi would become more and more extreme and radical by following Chiba. The current Kakashi is already very similar to Chiba. I am really worried that Kakashi will become another Chiba."

However, Kakashi is Chiyu's disciple, and I have no right to interfere with him, both morally and logically. Sigh.

Obito Uchiha had a complicated expression and remained silent for a long time.

Minato Namikaze said to Obito Uchiha, "Obito, it's getting late, you should go and get some rest."

Obito Uchiha nodded and said, "Okay, teacher, you should get some rest too."

On his way back to the camp, Obito Uchiha kept having Minato Namikaze's words about Kakashi and Chiba in his mind.

Just as Obito Uchiha was halfway there, a voice suddenly rang out: "Have you finished talking bad about me to that guy Minato Namikaze?"

"Oh my god!"

The sudden sound startled Obito Uchiha, making him tremble.

When Obito Uchiha saw that it was Chihiro, his heart skipped a beat.

"Sen, Lady Senyu, what are you doing here?"

Obito Uchiha was even having trouble speaking.

Looking at Obito Uchiha's silly appearance, Chiyu never imagined that he would be such a person in the future, one of the culprits who started the great war.

Chiba's gaze was fixed on Uchiha Obito, who was now feeling immense pressure.

Just as Obito Uchiha was almost drenched in cold sweat, Chiba finally spoke up: "Do you also think I'm as extreme, radical, arrogant, and cruel as Minato Namikaze described?"

Obito Uchiha forced a forced, ugly smile: "No, no, I don't think so at all, not at all!"

Chiyu smiled and said to Obito Uchiha, "Obito, you haven't experienced my past, so you don't know why I became like this."

Even though they did nothing wrong, they were insulted and even beaten by everyone.

Without any support or anyone to rely on, I can only rely on my own weakness and force myself to grow.

To survive, one must live cautiously every day...

"But when I became stronger and capable of standing on my own, I had to protect those who had bullied me. Do you know how disgusting that felt?"

Chiba's expression turned to extreme disgust, and Obito Uchiha stared blankly at Chiba.

"Obito, do you think Kakashi is the way he is now because of me?"

Obito Uchiha shook his head blankly: "I...I don't know..."

Chiyu said, enunciating each word clearly, "It wasn't me who made Kakashi like this, but Konoha!"

Chapter 164 I have high hopes for you

Chiba told Obito Uchiha that the reason Kakashi became like this was because of Konoha.

Obito Uchiha looked at Chiba with a blank expression.

Chiyu said to Obito Uchiha, "Back then, Kakashi was also someone who loved his comrades and Konoha. As his classmate and friend, you should be able to understand that."

Minato Namikaze was right; the reason Kakashi became like this was because of Sakumo-sama's death.

Lord Sakumo, who believes in the Will of Fire, chose to abandon the rules to save his comrades. He was indeed wrong, but only in terms of the rules. Therefore, Lord Sakumo should be punished according to the rules.

But everyone in Konoha is criticizing Lord Sakumo. Isn't this a way of accusing the spirit of the Will of Fire of being wrong?

Lord Sakumo did not commit suicide because he was blamed; he was not that fragile.

The real reason was that Lord Sakumo's faith collapsed, leading him to choose suicide.

Even if Sakumo-sama made a mistake, it shouldn't implicate Kakashi. At that time, even Kakashi was criticized by those guys.

Sakumo-sama has made so many contributions to Konoha, but because of this one mistake, he is being blamed by everyone, including the completely innocent Kakashi.

Obito, tell me, what did Kakashi do wrong?

When faced with Chiba's question, Obito Uchiha shook his head.

How could this be Kakashi's fault?

Chiyu continued, "Since Kakashi didn't do anything wrong, why are they criticizing him?"

Obito Uchiha opened his mouth, but finally managed to utter three words: "I don't know..."

Qianyu sneered, "You clearly know the answer in your heart, but you dare not say it? Then I will answer for you: the ones who are wrong are those people in Konoha!"

Then let me ask you again, after what happened to Kakashi, why should he give them a friendly look? Is it normal for him to greet them with a smile?

You all say Kakashi has changed, and even say it's because of me. Indeed, it's undeniable that I'm partly to blame, but isn't the biggest reason Konoha itself?

It was Konoha that made Kakashi become like this. You all say I'm cold-hearted, and Kakashi became cold-hearted after following me. So let me ask you, isn't Konoha cold-hearted too?

What did Kakashi and I do wrong to deserve this?

The Will of Fire is the spirit of Konoha. Did Sakumo-sama make a mistake by choosing to uphold the Will of Fire?

Kakashi keeps talking about rules and regulations because Konoha forces him to do so. Who can guarantee that if he doesn't follow the rules, he won't encounter the same situation as Lord Sakumo again?

"Obito, can you guarantee that? Minato Namikaze, can you guarantee that?"

Obito Uchiha was in a state of great turmoil, feeling as if something was collapsing within him.

Obito Uchiha remained silent for a long time before raising his head and looking at Chiyu with a puzzled expression, asking, "Lord Chiyu, why are you telling me all this?"

Chiyu smiled and said to Obito Uchiha, "Everyone knows that I hate the Uchiha clan, but it's different for you. I think highly of you, Obito, so I don't want you to misunderstand me or Kakashi."

Hearing Qianyu say this, Uchiha Obito was flattered.

Chiyu continued, "Obito, it's okay if you don't understand now. You'll understand whether what I told you today is correct or not in the future. Maybe we can even cooperate in the future."

Obito Uchiha scratched his head sheepishly: "No way, Lord Senba is so powerful, why would he need to cooperate with me?"

Chiyu said very seriously, "Obito, I'm not joking, I'm serious. I said I have high hopes for your future, and I think you will stand at the top of the ninja world."

It's okay if you don't believe me now. Just remember what I said today. If you ever need anything in the future, you can come to me for cooperation, no matter what it is. Of course, since cooperation is based on equality between both parties, you also need to pay the same compensation.

Of course, if I need your help in the future, I'll offer you the same reward. Don't refuse to see me then.

Obito Uchiha could sense Senba's seriousness and nodded in agreement, "How could I possibly refuse to see Lord Senba? I will remember that, Lord Senba."

Chiyu patted Obito Uchiha on the shoulder: "Alright, go and rest. I won't bother you anymore."

"Yes, goodnight, Lady Chiyu!"

Obito Uchiha jogged away.

Chiyu stared intently at Obito Uchiha's retreating figure, her gaze unfathomable.

The next day.

The six of them, including Qianyu, gathered together.

Minato Namikaze instructed, "It's about time to start the operation. We'll split into two groups according to the previous assignment. Good luck, everyone. Yesterday's enemy was just scouting alone. From now on, it will be a team battle, so be careful."

Obito Uchiha turned his head and said with a touch of arrogance, "Then let's go, Captain."
