Chapter 484 PUA Obito, Yearning for Konoha in 48
"Damn it, why did it have to turn out like this?!"
Looking at the straight kaleidoscope in Rin's left pupil, Obito clenched his teeth so tightly they almost bled, letting out a low growl of resentment.
Uchiha Madara? How could it be that guy??
Damn it, why did they target him? If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have lost lovely Lin...
"Don't overthink it. Even without Madara, Rin probably wouldn't choose you. It's cruel, but it's the reality!" Just as Obito was struggling with his complicated thoughts, Ishikawa entered his consciousness as a spirit.
"So it was you! I wasn't dreaming about the Grim Reaper before... Damn it, I'm so stupid..." Upon seeing the spirit Ishikawa, Obito instantly realized his mistake and felt extremely annoyed.
If he had discovered this loophole back then, he might not have been fooled for so long!
"Heh, even if you found out back then, it wouldn't have changed anything. I won't let you have that memory." Ishikawa shrugged noncommittally, then his eyes changed. "Obito, the pursuit of beauty is everyone's most primal desire, but sometimes we have to admit that reality is often disappointing..."
"Besides, regrets may be the true beauty! After all, people change, even lovers who were once inseparable! But the one in your heart will always be the perfect white moonlight."
"So Obito, are you really sure you like Rin? Or is it just wishful thinking, a self-indulgent fantasy to satisfy your own infatuation?"
"Self-righteous sentimentality? What do you know? I'd die for Rin, I'd risk my life to make her happy!" Obito roared like a furious lion, "Don't think that just because you saved me you can take my lovely Rin away without a second thought. If that's the outcome, I'd rather die at Kannabi Bridge!!"
"Death? You're really reckless, just like that, denying Rin's sacrifices." Ishikawa shook his head with a faint smile, then raised his chin at a 45-degree angle and smiled. "Obito, I don't deny your resolve to sacrifice yourself for Rin. But, so what?"
"True love is never a one-person show. If it can't be mutual, then letting go is the true meaning of love..."
"If you can't do that, then your so-called liking is ultimately just a fig leaf to cover up your selfish desires!"
"True love is letting go?" Upon hearing this, Obito's breath hitched, and he muttered to himself. But after only a moment, he shook his head in denial, his face full of resentment. "Mitarashi Ishikawa, stop lecturing me like a victor! You're just a beneficiary. If we switched places, would you be willing to hand Rin over to me?"
"I'm sorry, I can't do it!" Ishikawa looked at Obito with an unpretentious and sincere gaze.
Instantly, his answer made Obito burst into tears of joy. "Look at this! This is your hypocritical face. What right do you have to lecture me?"
Faced with Obito's disdain, Ishikawa smiled calmly and said, "I think you may have misunderstood. What I mean is that I will not give Rin away as an object or a stake."
"She has her own ideas, so no matter whether Lin chooses you or someone else in the end, I will respect her choice!"
A decisive blow! Obito's smile froze instantly, and he stared in disbelief, completely unprepared for Ishikawa's response.
Even with Obito's high emotional intelligence, he had to admit that compared to Ishikawa, he was a complete novice in this regard...
Fortunately, this is the sea of consciousness; if he were outside, he would probably have witnessed the most desperate scene.
"Calm down now... Let's get down to business!" Seeing the change in Obito's eyes, Ishikawa smiled faintly and released the Spirit Transformation Technique.
If he wasn't afraid that Rin would fall for him and cause the situation to get out of control, he wouldn't be here playing verbal sparring with Obito.
Outside, less than a second later, Obito opened his eyes again, his anger gone and his gaze complex.
"Rin, I'm sorry. You helped me change my fate, but I was ungrateful..." Obito bowed deeply to Nohara Rin, who was confused about the situation.
This sudden and dramatic change left not only Rin somewhat bewildered, but also Kakashi the Fifth Hokage!
However, the two quickly remembered Ishikawa's strange behavior earlier and instantly understood what was going on.
"Ahem... Let's get down to business now." Seeing that the conversation had finally come to an end, Kakashi quickly coughed and got to the point.
"You just said that Madara Uchiha's initial target was Obito, but Obito died in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, which proves that Madara's plot failed! So, is the Madara that Danzo mentioned the real Madara Uchiha, or just a new pawn in disguise?"
"Regarding this, do you have any leads?"
"Uh—" Hearing Kakashi keep saying that Obito was dead, Junto couldn't help but roll his eyes and was speechless.
Meanwhile, Ishikawa's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this. "Could it be that Obito didn't die, and Madara's plot succeeded?"
"Impossible! If I weren't dead, I would definitely go find Kakashi and Rin. This guess is absolutely impossible." Without hesitation, Obito immediately retorted.
He's a Konoha ninja with the Will of Fire, a man determined to become Hokage! Even Sasuke could see through his tricks, so how could he be deceived by Madara?
"Alright, let's not talk about that for now." Kakashi nodded in agreement, still having faith in Obito's will.
Thinking about today's main point, Kakashi couldn't help but turn and look at Ishikawa with burning eyes, "So now, how do we get to that past world? The era of the Fourth Hokage in Konoha 48..."
Those things are all secondary; this is the most important thing right now!
"Are we getting straight to the point?" Ishikawa was speechless, surprised that Kakashi and the others had ignored his hints...
Well, it's still early and there's no rush, so let's get down to business first.
"To protect the secret of our time travel, please take this special sleeping pill first. Once we get there, I will give you the antidote to wake you up." Ishikawa took out the prepared pills and handed one to each person.
He can bring people there, but the existence of the cheat-like time portal must be kept secret, not even from his most trusted teacher, Kakashi.
As always, the more people who know, the greater the risk!
This is a secret that belongs only to him and Lin.
"Does it really need to be this secret? It wasn't this complicated last time, I don't know how I got here..." Obito complained suspiciously, but before he could say anything more, Kakashi reached out and stuffed the pill into his mouth.
"Stop talking nonsense, I can't wait to see Minato-sensei!" Kakashi said, opening his mouth and throwing his pill into it, completely unafraid that Ishikawa might tamper with it.
This is the trust between master and apprentice!
As for keeping it a secret that they fainted? Heh, Kakashi cares about that much more than Ishikawa does.
After all, once intelligence is leaked, it would be a huge loss for both sides, and could even trigger a series of unfortunate events such as war...
So why do we need to get to the bottom of things?
