Hearing Naruto's words, the masked man appeared extremely angry.
He questioned, "What do you understand? What right do you have to talk about me?"
"You think you understand Sasuke very well? You don't even know what he wants to get back. Have you ever respected his choices? You just, time and time again, helped him make decisions, did things you thought were good for him. You're just arrogant and self-righteous!"
"Someone like you is worthy of being Sasuke's friend?"
"I'm telling you, Sasuke has now become a pure avenger. His target for revenge is you people of Konoha!"
These words made Naruto's pupils shrink violently. He roared, "What do you mean? Why would Sasuke become like this? Tell me, was it something you did?"
Just as the two were provoking each other to the point of emotional collapse, the huge commotion was already noticed by the surrounding people.
Instantly, vines of wood rose up around the two, trapping them at the same time.
Yamato appeared not far from them, forming seals with his hands. The Wood Style just now was cast by him.
Kakashi's figure, at some unknown point, also appeared behind the masked man, lightning flickering in his hand.
"Don't move. If you dare touch Naruto, my attack will land."
"Your phasing technique, at the moment you strike, becomes ineffective, right?"
Originally, this scene of Kakashi's appearance was quite cool.
Naruto couldn't help but complain, "Kakashi-sensei, your Sharingan has been tearing up. Did sand get into it?"
That instantly made Kakashi break his composure. He couldn't help but raise his other hand and wipe it.
Sure enough, it was tears.
'Strange, for no reason, why am I crying?'
At this time, the masked man's body had already phased through Yamato's Wood Style and jumped onto the eaves not far from everyone.
He looked at Kakashi and roared, "Kakashi, was it all your schemes? Using this kind of method to deal with me, don't you think it's too dirty?"
Kakashi was completely dumbfounded. When he heard the commotion, he had taken action immediately and didn't know the situation at all.
'What exactly happened?'
'Did Naruto somehow break this Madara mentally?'
'Wait, the masked man's voice sounds a bit familiar…'
Kakashi's eyes instantly contracted, and his face also turned pale in an instant, sweat pouring down from his forehead.
"You are… Obito?"
The masked man trembled. Kakashi's reaction couldn't be faked, so Kakashi actually didn't know anything. The note wasn't forged by Kakashi.
Makes sense. No matter how useless Kakashi might be, he wouldn't joke about Rin.
So, Naruto really did, for some unknown reason, receive Rin's entrustment and brought the note to him?
Just now, under emotional turmoil, he had forgotten to hide his voice. At this point, he simply stopped pretending.
Uchiha Obito removed his mask, revealing a face with half of it disfigured.
From his right eye, tears were continuously flowing as he looked at Kakashi and said, "You can call me whatever you want, it's up to you!"
Kakashi's eyes widened, sweat dripping down his forehead, "You really are… Obito, you're still alive, why didn't you come back?"
Obito spread his hands, "Whether I'm alive or not doesn't matter. If you insist on a reason, it's because you… let Rin die!"
"Back then, Kakashi, you showed that kind of expression. I had no thought of blaming you. I am no longer interested in this boring reality, nor in this world that is about to perish."
Kakashi asked with a trembling voice, "Obito, what exactly do you want to do?"
A firm will appeared on Uchiha Obito's face, "This world is beyond saving. I want to carry out the Eye of the Moon Plan and create a better world, a world with Rin."
"Now that my identity has been exposed, in order to achieve that better, I need greater power. So Kakashi, you useless guy should return my eye to me now."
After saying that, Uchiha Obito suddenly dashed toward Kakashi…
"Not good! Kakashi, dodge quickly!"
Yamato warned from the side, but Obito's speed was too fast. He didn't even have time to form seals.
At the same time, Kakashi, in a state of despair, had no intention to fight.
He was like a dead man, letting Obito rush to his front, grab his left eye, and dig it out.
Obito swiftly dug out his own left eye and replaced it with the original eye.
Immediately, two spinning pinwheel-like Mangekyō Sharingan appeared in both his eyes.
Kneeling on the ground, covering his eye, Kakashi said with despair, "Obito, I've returned your eye to you. No matter what you want to do, can you stop here?"
But Obito didn't respond. Instead, he reached out and supported Kakashi.
"Kakashi, once I still wanted to escape, so I took on Madara's name and did Madara's deeds."
"But now, I understand that even though I'm not anyone, I don't need to become anyone else."
"Wait and see. Very soon, I will be able to create a happy and perfect world. You can all live in it and live good lives."
Kakashi suddenly felt inexplicably moved, "Obito, is what you're saying all true?"
Obito said, "I have no need to deceive. Everything I'm doing is for peace."
"Kakashi, if you also want that day to come sooner, then don't stop me. Otherwise, I'll have no choice but to kill everyone who stands in my way."
Naruto stood by the side, watching Kakashi-sensei being swayed by Obito, and couldn't help but shout loudly, "Kakashi-sensei, don't listen to him! No matter who he was in the past, now he's with Akatsuki. He's our enemy!"
Then, Naruto looked at Obito with hatred, "You're the one who turned Sasuke into this, what right do you have to say such things!"
Obito couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Hahahaha, HAHAHAHA!"
After laughing, he pointed at Naruto and questioned, "Why was Nagato convinced by someone like you?"
"Everything Sasuke did was his own will. You just don't want to admit it, don't dare to admit it."
"You just want to pin everything on someone else, to make him look innocent!"
"What you're doing is just like those arrogant great nations who start wars, then push all the blame onto others afterward to make themselves look innocent. Nagato entrusting his hope to you—what a joke."
Naruto's body trembled, but soon he firmed up.
"I won't believe anything you say. Since you won't tell me what happened to Sasuke, then I'll beat it out of you!"
After that, Naruto angrily attacked Obito with a Rasengan.
But of course, this move was easily dodged by Obito phasing through it.
Looking at Naruto who missed and looked pathetic, Obito mocked, "Who said I wouldn't tell you what happened to Sasuke? The reason I came here today was to tell you Sasuke's story."
"You're the one who didn't dare to listen, aren't you?"
"You felt you were in the wrong, so you wanted to use your fists to solve the problem, right?"
"Naruto, when it comes to Sasuke, you're even more of an escapist than I am."
