Chapter 611: Obito Joins the World
For Yamato, who had suppressed himself for so many years, the Nine-Tails Chakra was like a powerful aphrodisiac. Yamato simply could not resist it.
Naruto had learned from the Fourth Great Ninja War in the original story and transferred some of the Nine-Tails Chakra to Kakashi, causing Kakashi to become another little delicacy in Yamato's eyes.
Kakashi was confused as well.
Although he had once been a bond-type shinobi, after the incident last time, he and Guy had already become furry-loving shinobi.
The strange thing now was that, because he was wrapped in Nine-Tails Chakra, it was as though he had a filter over his eyes. Everyone looked like a furry to him.
So, he really could accept Yamato as well.
"Naruto, what are you…"
Kakashi swallowed and asked.
He had no idea what Naruto was trying to do. Could it be that Kushina had sent him to test them?
"On my way home, Captain Yamato suddenly jumped out and restrained me with Wood Release. Only after I broke free did I realize that Captain Yamato had become mentally unstable because of too much stress.
"If this keeps going, Captain Yamato is definitely going to go crazy. Kakashi-Sensei, please, let Captain Yamato relax properly."
"Then what is this Nine-Tails Chakra for?"
"One of Captain Yamato's missions is to prevent Jinchūriki from going berserk. He's been working day and night without rest, and he's become obsessed with this matter. I need to use Tailed Beast Chakra to get close to him. Otherwise, he'll fight back with everything he has."
Naruto deliberately concealed the truth that Yamato was a furry-loving shinobi, silently hoping that Kakashi could correct Yamato's personality and turn him back into a bond-type shinobi who possessed the Will of Fire.
After saying that, Naruto raised his hand and withdrew the Tailed Beast Chakra from Kakashi's body.
Kakashi understood immediately and reached out to touch Yamato.
"Kakashi, what are you doing?! Get away! I'm not the one who's gone crazy, Naruto is! Let go of me!"
Yamato viciously lunged forward and bit at him, forcing Kakashi to hurriedly pull his hand back.
Naruto then silently transferred the Nine-Tails Chakra to Kakashi again.
Kakashi reached toward Yamato once more.
Yamato, who had been baring his teeth and hissing, suddenly narrowed his eyes and rubbed against Kakashi's hand with an expression of pure comfort.
After the experiment, the result was obvious.
Naruto was telling the truth.
Kakashi nodded. "All right, Naruto. Leave Yamato to me."
"No, no!!!"
Kakashi carried Yamato into the room, while Yamato let out a despairing scream.
Naruto, however, looked extremely satisfied.
"So this is what it feels like to do something good, then bear the blame and be misunderstood? This feels amazing!"
Naruto himself did not know whether he had awakened some strange inclination, but he suddenly sighed with emotion.
He continued walking home.
[Penalty activated: Stick has gained permanent Kamui intangibility.]
Naruto: ?
The previous penalty had been shortening, and Naruto had not really cared about it.
Even if that penalty stacked several times, at worst he would simply turn into a girl. It would not affect his ability to enter Sage Mode.
But what the hell was this permanent Kamui intangibility?
Naruto checked himself and, sure enough, he could only see it but could no longer touch it.
How was he supposed to enter Sage Mode like this?!
Wasn't this basically the same as sealing away one of his abilities?
Naruto wore a bitter expression, but he did not regret it.
"Even without Sage Mode, I can still clear the game!"
Naruto encouraged himself.
At the same time, in another beginner village world of Engraved Tsukuyomi, Obito had finally, in Kakashi's identity, successfully pierced Rin through the heart.
Obito looked up at the sky and let out a long sigh. He had finally completed his final mission—killing his rival, meaning the rival who was competing with him for Kakashi. And because Rin had once turned into the Three-Tails and gone berserk, the villagers would also approve of this killing.
He could finally leave this damn genjutsu.
Once upon a time, he had still been lamenting over how much longer he would have to endure this.
Now, he was about to regain his freedom!
However…
The mission was judged to have failed.
The Konoha villagers seemed to be saying: When exactly did you get the illusion that if you saved the village and catered to us, we would stop bullying you and acknowledge you?
The White Fang of Konoha, a war hero, was still bullied to death.
Uzumaki Naruto, the hero who would save the world during the Fourth Great Ninja War, still had his son and daughter bullied.
Uchiha Sasuke, Naruto's supporting shadow, the man standing behind him, an existence who also saved the shinobi world, still had his daughter and wife bullied.
And you, Uchiha Obito, personally killed a Three-Tails Jinchūriki. What makes you think you qualify to have us stop bullying you?
"…"
After learning the truth, Obito really wanted to curse.
If he had known this beforehand, on the night of the Nine-Tails attack, he should have controlled the Nine-Tails and fired a few Tailed Beast Bombs first.
Konoha really should have been destroyed long ago.
Just as Obito was falling into despair, the system displayed a new notification.
[Dead End detected. Would you like to restart the cycle?]
Obito's eyes lit up.
There was actually another chance?
'If I start over, I will definitely take everything back!'
"Yes! This time, I'm going to be myself! Playing as Kakashi is way too difficult!"
Obito chose yes without hesitation.
However…
The world Obito had actually entered was the Engraved Tsukuyomi world where Naruto was.
This was something Shiromo had deliberately adjusted after seeing that Obito's side was approaching its conclusion.
It would also allow him to test the network function while he was at it.
From the Buff Man series to the Limited Tsukuyomi series, Shiromo had never felt that he had done anything improper.
He was humbly seeking advice. He was exceptionally modest.
In the world of his previous life, there was a former Go champion who made absurd short videos and was praised as "someone who plays Go but can't beat someone who gets on Go."
What did "getting on Go" mean?
Exactly what it sounded like—getting on Go. The female protagonists in his videos were all Go boards.
There were also many absurd novels during the Ming and Qing dynasties.
For example, there was one in which Yu Qian was reincarnated and married all twelve of the treacherous officials who had caused his downfall after gender-swapping them.
This was The Jade Toad Record, a classical novel from the Qing dynasty.
So Shiromo had never felt that he had done anything improper.
He had merely done a tiny bit of work.
For example, this Stick's intangibility was actually Shiromo using his authority to give Naruto a little bit of help and guidance.
At the same time, this was not merely about guiding Naruto, because…
"What is this? This is perfect! This time, I'll definitely be able to get out!"
After Obito arrived in Naruto's Engraved Tsukuyomi world, he checked the situation of his version of himself in this world and was instantly overjoyed.
His situation in this world was practically even better than in the real world.
The Akatsuki was still under his control and was on the same side as him.
He still possessed the Kamui intangibility ability from the real world. On top of that, he had even gained another ability.
Obito did not care at all about things like the Uchiha of this world being naturally kind-hearted.
What he focused on was that, besides the Third Power of Susanoo, the Uchiha of this world also possessed a fourth ability.
For example, Uchiha Madara, whom he had always been impersonating, had an ability called Return to Fundamentals, which could increase the power of all techniques but prevented him from using Mangekyō abilities.
As for Obito's own fourth ability, he personally believed it was even more powerful than Madara's.
Inside the Kamui dimension, his attributes would receive a massive boost. If he killed an enemy inside the Kamui dimension, he could even permanently obtain part of that enemy's abilities!
The only flaw was that, after awakening the Mangekyō ability, his version of himself in this world had actually become such a good-natured person that he had never killed anyone.
"What is this?"
Obito happily entered his Kamui dimension in this world and looked around. Suddenly, he saw a strange object floating in midair.
It seemed to be "Stick".
