It's been 24 years, why am I reincarnated in Konoha without a system?

Chapter 489 Obito's Sky Collapses, Jiraiya's Redemption

"Boy-boyfriend!!"

Upon hearing this cruel declaration that pierced his heart, Obito was struck dumb, feeling as if the sky had collapsed!

If he could still find excuses to deceive himself before, this was now the stark and cruel reality. And it was a wake-up call, personally acknowledged by the goddess Lin!

Amidst the intense emotional turmoil, Obito's eyes flashed crimson, revealing his Mangekyou Sharingan. The explosive power of his eyes was like a river bursting its banks, causing his companions to turn pale and their eyes to widen in horror...

"Obito, don't be impulsive!" Kakashi shouted from the side, seeing his best friend's emotional outburst and distraught appearance.

He knew the terrifying power of Obito's Mangekyou Sharingan; if anything went wrong, everyone here could either die or be maimed.

"Heh, how could such a thing happen! Kakashi, is this hell? Rin, is she still the cute Rin I know?" As if awakened by Kakashi, Obito smiled bitterly and stared at Nohara Rin with a deathly pale face.

"I don't admit to this... I don't admit to it..."

That look was like looking at a girl from a distant dream, or like looking at a complete stranger!

"Obito..."

Kakashi was about to speak when Ishikawa reached out and interrupted him, saying, "Of course she's Nohara Rin from Konoha, but not the one you're imagining. Perfect girls only exist in dreams; reality is often disappointing."

"Obito, if you believe Rin must exist according to your ideas, then she is not a simple individual, but rather someone who exists to fulfill your self-righteous fantasies of love. So, haven't you recognized yourself yet?"

"Recognize yourself? Damn it, that arrogant, self-righteous tone again..." Obito shook his head and sneered self-deprecatingly, not even glancing at Ishikawa, and turned his head to stare intently at Nohara Rin, "Are you serious?"

“Of course, Ishikawa-kun is a very good candidate.” Although Nohara Rin felt reluctant, she nodded in confirmation without hesitation.

Although this is somewhat cruel to Obito, she has to act decisively. This is both a matter of responsibility to herself and to Obito!

To give someone hope but then deny it is truly cruel.

and……

"Is that so, Rin?" Forcing himself to remain calm and suppressing the bitterness in his heart, Obito slowly nodded, turned around, and went out. "Kakashi, please take care of everyone for me. I'm tired today, I'll go back and rest first."

As she spoke, tears streamed down her face, which was turned away from everyone, her expression contorted in a pitiful, convulsive manner. The pain was unbearable…

Being rejected by the goddess is even more painful than being killed.

If he had known that coming back would lead to this outcome, he would have preferred to stay in the future and never come back, so that at least he would have had a sliver of hope!

"Rin, you went too far today." Looking at his friend's heartbroken and dejected figure, Kakashi snorted coldly with dissatisfaction, but stared at Ishikawa with hostile eyes.

It's all because of this guy that what should have been a nice welcome banquet turned into this mess!

“Yes, Rin. Obito just got back today. Isn’t it too cruel to treat him like this?” Shizune chimed in, prompting Kurenai and the others to nod in agreement.

At the same time, everyone looked at Ishikawa with curiosity, wondering how he managed to win Rin's heart.

Keep in mind that Rin is currently the second most powerful female ninja in Konoha after Tsunade, and her reputation as one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha is renowned throughout the ninja world! And Ishikawa actually defeated Kakashi and Obito to win her heart? This is not something an ordinary ninja could do.

"I'm doing this for his own good. If you don't like someone, you should say so early. Otherwise, the longer you drag it out, the more misunderstandings will arise," Nohara Rin explained helplessly, then winked meaningfully at Shizune, "Of course, you should also say so early if you like someone. It would be such a pity if someone else beat you to it!"

Thinking of the fifth generation's wife, Hana, and Shizune's secret remark to her when she returned to the village that she wanted to pursue Kakashi, Nohara Rin couldn't help but subtly remind her good friend to urge her on.

"Ah, this—" Shizune instantly understood the red heat, and nervously rubbed her hands together, looking at Kakashi with a flirtatious glint in her eyes.

Instantly, Kakashi, who was about to say something, was startled by Shizune's gaze and immediately turned around awkwardly to invite everyone to sit down and exchange pleasantries.

This is a good opportunity to let Obito calm down. He'll go talk to that idiot and give him some advice after the dinner...

[Masaka! Dude, I haven't even finished the solo kill yet, and Kakashi-sensei is already starting a harem?] Ishikawa, who witnessed everything, couldn't help but mutter to himself. The thought of two Kakashis meeting with different wives made his scalp tingle.

Hmm, that scene was too beautiful for him to even imagine...

"Is it okay now, my temporary boyfriend?" Just as Ishikawa was lost in thought, Nohara Rin suddenly leaned over and whispered teasingly in his ear.

Yes, that's right. They're not officially dating yet; they only resorted to this as a temporary measure!

"Well, didn't you agree to this? On one hand, it's to make Obito realize his mistake quickly and not get too involved, and on the other hand, it's to give that guy a chance to take advantage of the situation." Ishikawa pursed his lips, took two steps, sat down, and started eating.

Kakashi will pay for today's expenses; he might as well eat it!

"This idiot, didn't he understand what I meant? Damn it..." Nohara Rin gritted her teeth and cursed inwardly, then rolled her eyes and sat down next to Ishikawa to help him pick up some food.

While a romantic drama was unfolding here, a few streets away was a street lined with hot spring baths.

"Waaaaah... Waaaaah..."

Separated from the crowd, Obito could no longer hold back his tears, which flowed freely and brought tears to the eyes of all who heard it.

"Damn it, which guy is wailing and disturbing my research?" A moment later, a rough middle-aged voice rang out in dissatisfaction.

The next moment, "Huh? Those eyes..."

A middle-aged man, his pupils slightly contracting, appeared beside Obito, flicking his long hair. "Yo~~ Isn't this Minato's disciple? What's wrong, kid? Heartbroken?"

"Hmph, mind your own business..." Although he recognized the person, Obito was still in a bad mood and didn't want to talk to him.

He didn't want to pay attention, but the newcomer's eyes lit up. "So you're really heartbroken? Hehehe, this immortal has the best way to ease the pain of such things..."

Without giving Obito a chance to refute, he grabbed Obito and dragged him to a women's bathhouse for peeping.

"Look, there are so many beautiful girls in this world, why give up a whole bunch of beauties for one woman..."

"Once you've seen all sorts of beautiful women and experienced their comfort, you'll realize how naive your current thinking is!"

"Hehehe... This is my experience of being rejected by Tsunade countless times. It's a sure cure."

Seeing Obito's wide eyes, rapid breathing, and flushed face, the newcomer patted his chest and gave a guarantee, as if he had been there before.

"This feeling of my heart pounding? Jiraiya-sama, suddenly I don't feel the pain in my heart as much..."
