Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

Chapter 14 - 14. Obito's Self-Exposure.



'Option A is Kakashi-senpai.'

A figure flashed in Itachi's mind, a Sharingan that he had seen himself when he was in Anbu. ​​

As far as he knew, Kakashi's Sharingan was given to him by his teammate Uchiha Obito. The Uchiha clan had pressured him to return it, but it was stopped by the Third Hokage, and it was eventually dropped.

But he didn't tarnish the prestige of Sharingan either. With the Sharingan, he made a name for himself in the Shinobi world as the 'Copy Ninja'.

"This question, I can't answer it. Do any of you know the answer?"

Deidara directly spoke out. He couldn't help it. He was born late and was a shut-in before joining Akatsuki and didn't pay much attention to the shinobi world outside.

From the five names above, he knew of Uchiha Madara and Zetsu.

Thinking of Zetsu, Deidara sighed a little and said, "Zetsu, how come you're everywhere?"

He was on the Shinobi World List, he was also in the analysis of the first question, and now he was in the answer list to the third question.

"The answer to this question shouldn't be you, right?"

The speaker had no opinions, but the listener had opinions.

Uchiha Obito turned his questioning gaze to Zetsu, which was simply ignored.

Pain thought for a moment, but he couldn't answer this question anyway, so it was just right for Zetsu to answer it.

"Gai, what do you think the correct answer to this question is?"

(note: "Gai" is Zetsu's codename)

Black Zetsu was stunned, not expecting that his turn would come so soon after the treatment towards Uchiha Itachi.

White Zetsu sympathetically glanced at Black Zetsu. Of course, Black Zetsu knew the correct answer to this question, but he couldn't say it...

However, if he didn't answer correctly and deliberately answered it wrong, others would still deduce the correct answer.

What should he do?

White Zetsu looked at Black Zetsu inquisitively.

"I was there during the Third Shinobi World War and saw Konohagakure's Hatake Kakashi kill Nohara Rin with Lightning Release jutsu."

"So, the answer to this question, I think, is A: Hatake Kakashi."

Black Zetsu originally wanted to say that he and Madara were both at the scene, but after thinking about it, he left Madara out.

"So, it seems that the answer to this question is A."

Pain nodded and was about to speak out to the space when a voice stopped him.

"Wait a minute! The correct answer should be B or C!"

"Oh?" Hearing this voice, Pain's eyes finally perked up.

'Are you finally going to stop pretending?'

Meanwhile, seeing that Pain, who was about to answer the question, was stopped, Zetsu cursed indignantly.

'Shit! Uchiha Madara was really blind!'

'To actually choose someone like you to carry out the plan!'

The reason why Zetsu chose Hatake Kakashi was so that it could blame Uchiha Madara in option C for it.

But at this moment, he was interrupted by Obito, which made his plans come to naught.

"Oh, if it isn't 'Madara'. Right? What do you have to say?"

Kakuzu had a hint of teasing in his voice. He once fought against the First Hokage and knew how powerful the legend of the shinobi world was. How could the person in front of him now be Uchiha Madara, that person's rival?

Obito ignored Kakuzu, and at the moment, all his attention was focused on the answer to this question.

"I was there when Kakashi killed Rin." His voice carried an undisguised pain, "He was just the tool. The 'real murderer' in this question should be someone else!"

Itachi looked at him with a sneer and suddenly said, "Are you ready to stand up? Uchiha Obito!"

...

'What!'

'That's Obito?!'

Hatake Kakashi's face suddenly darkened. 'How is that possible?'

At that time, Uchiha Obito was crushed by stones in the cave, and half of his body suffered serious injuries. Even if he survived, it was impossible to finish treating his wounds and move to another battlefield in such a short time.

This was a contradiction.

Hatake Kakashi pondered, feeling that he had missed something crucial.

This was something that would make the contradiction come true.

'Wait!'

'The Mangekyō's ability!'

'That space...'

'Does it have the ability to teleport?'

Hatake Kakashi's chakra gathered onto the Sharingan, and instantly, the three hooks in the scarlet Sharingan slowly connected, forming a marvelous pattern.

The Sharingan's form started to change, and Kakashi continued to put in more chakra.

Swish!

As the chakra input reached a certain threshold, the space in front of Kakashi suddenly distorted, and then his body disappeared into the wall.

The next second, Kakashi's body appeared in the same place.

He gasped violently and leaned on both hands in front of him, clenching them into fists.

"He was right there!? Then why didn't he show up!"

"Why!?"

  ...

"Zetsu is a member of the organization, relative to you. I think we are more willing to believe in him." Pain's voice was elevated and cold, and his Rinnegan stared at Obito as it came from the abyss.

"I don't care if you're Uchiha Madara or Obito. But if you make a mistake and we won't be able to see the video because of it, can you bear Akatsuki's wrath?"

Akatsuki's crowd looked at Pain in surprise. They didn't expect that the leader would say such a thing.

Konan, who knew Pain the best, had a different expression flash in her eyes.

'Nagato is forcing this man to reveal his identity.'

'Although, by the way, he's acting now. He already guessed the guy's true identity!'

Uchiha Obito wasn't stupid; on the contrary, he was a very clever man who could manipulate Akatsuki in the palm of his hand. Hearing Pain's statement, he certainly knew what Pain meant.

His body shook as he hesitated for a moment. A youthful figure appeared in his mind...

'Obito~'

'You must be Hokage ~'

'This is our promise!'

"Rin!"

A watery glint appeared in Obito's eyes.

Since Rin died, he was completely disappointed in the world.

Over the years, wasn't he trying to create a world with Rin in it?

Now, the real culprit who killed Rin was among these four people.

He couldn't afford to miss this!

"If you need to have a reason, then my identity as Uchiha Obito is enough!"

Obito ripped off his mask straight away, revealing a bizarre face.

The left side of his face looked handsome with his dark eye, while the right side of his face was full of grooves that looked as if they were spliced together and incomparably scary.

"How ... How is this possible!"

Even though he had a hunch in his heart, at that moment, Hatake Kakashi still couldn't believe it.

He was shocked to see the Sharingan in Uchiha Obito's right eye when he took off his mask.

'Mangekyō!'

The pattern on that Mangekyō was identical to the pattern on his left eye... exactly the same!

  ...

"Oh?"

A smile appeared on Pain's face. His eyes moved away from Uchiha Obito's right face, "Then answer this question."

Behind the crowd, Jiraiya was surprised to see Uchiha Obito's face.

He had read Minato's mission briefing that time.

Uchiha Obito was smashed by Earth Release, and Hatake Kakashi's left eye was destroyed at that time. So, Obito gave his left eye to Kakashi as a gift for becoming a Jōnin.

Who would have thought!

Now, Uchiha Obito was standing here, perfectly healthy.
