"Rin, I..."
Uchiha Obito was no longer in the frantic state of being unable to accept reality, as if he had come to his senses; after all, he had previously gone mad and refused to eat, unable to accept anything, but he was slowly getting better now.
"I know I did a lot of unforgivable things before, but I want to make amends, Rin... I hope to create a beautiful world where everyone can resurrect..."
Uchiha Obito spoke at length, mostly related to the Eye of the Moon, with a small portion about his own awakening, and finally his repentance.
"Rin, I've done many wrong things, and I also want to try my best to make amends and hope for your forgiveness... Rin, please give me a chance..."
After Uchiha Obito finished speaking, there was a moment of silence in the fifth underground prison before Nohara Rin spoke up: "Obito... it's not about whether I forgive you or not now, but it's really good that you came to your senses..."
"Rin, I hope..."
"Obito, if there's nothing else, let's end it here today. I still have to concoct elixirs, so I'm going back now."
After Nohara Rin finished speaking, she pulled Yuhi Kurenai and walked outside.
Kakashi shook his head, then asked, "Obito, is there anything you want?"
When Obito heard Kakashi's words, he opened his mouth but eventually lowered his head, unable to say a word; Kakashi waited for a while and seeing that Obito really didn't want to speak, he left.
The three quickly left the Security Team prison, and when they were outside, Yuhi Kurenai couldn't help but say, "So it was because of you, Rin. Though it was obvious he liked you since Ninja Academy, I didn't expect Obito would be so extreme..."
"Don't say that, Kurenai, if I'd known it would end like this, I might have changed from the Ninja Academy."
Nohara Rin shook her head and said, "I don't even know how to face Sister Kushina. She used to be so good to the three of us, but Obito ruined Sister Kushina's life..."
Hearing this, Kakashi also fell silent, sighing silently in his heart; Obito's awakening is possible, but getting a chance for forgiveness is simply impossible, even tricking himself into forgiving in his heart is unfeasible.
To forgive such a grave mistake, wouldn't it be unfair to others?
Even Nagato could never get out in his lifetime and would have to live in a prison for life; no matter how well Konan does outside, at most she'll improve Nagato's life, but even so, she has to endure in silence under Uchiha Yoichi.
"Kakashi, take this elixir. I made it, and it passed Teacher Yoichi's assessment."
Nohara Rin took out a bottle of elixir and handed it to Kakashi. She can freely use Uchiha Yoichi's resources now, and next, she'll focus on cultivating the Spiritual Telekinesis Secret Technique and then master the refining of Third-Grade Elixirs before attempting Fourth-Grade Elixirs.
This is Nohara Rin's plan for herself, as she wants to help Teacher Yoichi in another way in the future.
"Rin, what kind of secret medicine is this?"
Taking the elixir, Kakashi asked, as the Uchiha Race's secret medicines are well-known in Konoha, with the simple Soldier Pill already being pursued by many ninjas.
Taking one during battle allows quick recovery of chakra without side effects, who wouldn't want such a good thing?
As for the more expensive First-Grade and Second-Grade Secret Medicines, they need to be pre-ordered, and it's said that Third-Grade Secret Medicines can only be used by Uchiha.
"It's the Third-Grade Wind Travel Pill, it can increase speed significantly, remember to store it in the Storage Scroll."
"Third-Grade Secret Medicine? Thank you, Rin."
Kakashi said in amazement, then carefully sealed the medicine bottle into the scroll. Although they could buy without limitation due to Uchiha Yoichi, the price of Third-Grade Secret Medicines was really high.
One Wind Travel Pill costs at least four to five hundred thousand ryō, requiring several A-Class tasks to earn enough for one secret medicine; and Nohara Rin gave him as many as three Wind Travel Pills, even Kakashi as a Jonin couldn't refuse.
The Third-Grade Secret Medicine seldom circulates outside, usually requiring an A-Class or above task proof to apply for purchase from the Uchiha Race.
Just as the three were heading to the village center, Yuhi Kurenai suddenly turned pale, then turned her head towards Kakashi, who quickly said seeing her expression, "I didn't alert anyone, Kurenai, it's just a coincidence."
"Kurenai!"
Seeing Yuhi Kurenai from afar, Asuma called out and then jogged over.
Once he got close, Asuma smiled and said, "Kurenai, haven't seen you for a long time."
"Asuma, indeed it's been a while, because you've been doing tasks all the time..."
Yuhi Kurenai sighed inwardly, then smiled and said; however, Asuma misunderstood her smile, and seeing this youthful yet slightly charming smile from Yuhi Kurenai, his liking for her grew.
Asuma then said, "Kurenai, how about having lunch together? My treat, how about some grilled meat?" He planned to invite Yuhi Kurenai for a magic lamb meal, though it's pricey, he definitely had enough savings.
But Yuhi Kurenai quickly rejected, "No need, Asuma, there's too much village business lately, a rice ball for lunch is enough."
"In that case..."
Before Asuma could speak, Yuhi Kurenai continued, "It's getting late, there's work in the Hokage Office, I must go back now, goodbye, Rin, Kakashi."
