rustle!
Obito's figure quickly shuttled through the dense forest.
"Kakashi and Rin are just ahead."
When White Zetsu's voice was heard, Obito, with an anxious look on his face, suddenly jumped down from the tree, and finally rushed out of the forest.
Outside the forest is an open space with rocks scattered across it.
"Rin, here I come! This time, I will definitely protect you!"
At the last moment before rushing out of the forest, Obito said this in his heart.
"Rin"
As Obito murmured, the scene in front of him made his pupils shrink suddenly.
"Kakashi"
In front of him, the white-haired boy and the desperate-looking girl looked at each other.
In the boy's hand, he held a kunai with a special mark, and the kunai pierced the girl's left chest.
Kakashi was stunned. Looking at the girl with blood slowly dripping from the corner of her mouth, his body trembled violently.
He loosened his grip, and the girl in front of him leaned forward and fell towards him.
"Why!?"
These words echoed in Kakashi and Obito's hearts at the same time, but their states of mind were completely different at this moment.
Rin fell down and Kakashi caught her.
His body also went limp. The long escape and previous battle, coupled with this sudden blow, made his brain tremble violently and everything went dark before his eyes.
Kakashi forced himself to stay conscious and not faint.
"ah!!"
At this moment, a faint roar like that of a wild beast came to his ears.
That voice was slightly familiar.
"Why!!"
As Obito roared madly, branches like tree trunks began to cover his face, and his scarlet pupils were spinning rapidly!
Three magatama. Then they linked together and formed the shape of a Mangekyo Sharingan!
The roar made all the Kirigakure ninjas here look over.
"Who is this guy?"
A Kirigakure ANBU's eyes flickered.
At this time, Obito, whose face was covered, rushed forward frantically. With every step he took, the ground crumbled!
Swish!
In the dense forest, in front of several Konoha ninjas, a figure suddenly fell.
"Minato-sama!"
These Konoha ninjas said this with respect on their faces.
"Um."
Minato nodded, and then said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Immediately, these ninjas told Minato the location of the Kirigakure ninja they were tracking.
Upon hearing this, the latter suddenly rushed in that direction.
Swish!
Several Ninja were shuttling through the dense forest. At this moment, a yellow light flashed behind them.
"Puff, puff, puff!"
Minato caught up with these Kirigakure members and killed them all in an instant.
However, looking at the corpses in front of him, Minato frowned slightly.
Because according to the information previously gathered by several Konoha ninjas, the number of Kirigakure in front of him was still one person short.
He immediately formed seals with his hands and spread out his perception.
"this"
After a slight sensing, Minato did not sense any enemy's chakra fluctuations, but he sensed an extremely subtle and weak breath.
That breth was actually his Flying Thunder God Kunai.
"What's going on?"
Minato's face froze, because he had never left a Flying Thunder God Kunai in that direction
. "Could it be..."
After a brief pause, Minato came to a conclusion that was somewhat unbelievable to him.
Someone had moved with his kunai, and the only ones who could have been there were Kakashi and Rin.
They escaped from the imprisonment of Kirigakure!?
Although the possibility was very low, it was the only possibility that Minato could think of. He sensed it a little, and then with a thought, he disappeared.
Swish!
When Minato reappeared, it was still a dense forest.
"."
Minato pondered for a moment as he looked at the scene before him.
Drip, drip!
At this time, a light rain began to fall from the gloomy sky. The raindrops fell on the leaves, making a rustling sound.
"boom!"
At this moment, a slight vibration sound was heard from about several kilometers away.
Ordinary ninjas would not be able to detect this vibration, but Minato could certainly feel it.
Immediately, he suddenly jumped up and landed on the top of a giant tree. Then, looking around, he saw a giant tree without branches and leaves standing at the end of the dense forest.
But the giant tree looked a little strange because its branches were faintly dark red.
Looking at the strange scene, Minato pondered for a moment, then his body turned into a yellow light and rushed towards the giant tree.
The dark red giant tree was covered with thorns, and on each of its branches were hung the pierced bodies of the Kirigakure ninjas.
Under the tree, Obito was covered in blood, with bloody traces of water dripping down his cheeks.
He walked slowly through the pool of blood, and when his body overlapped with the corpse at his feet, it seemed as if he had passed through it directly.
Obito walked to Rin's body, slowly paused, and stretched out his hand, wanting to touch her cheek.
But his palm went straight through it.
Obito was stunned for a moment, and then the Mangekyo in his pupils condensed slightly.
He stroked Rin's cheek. The cold touch made him realize, despite his inner struggle, that the girl in front of him was dead.
"Rin"
At this moment, pictures of girls' smiling faces kept flashing through his mind.
"Obito, I'll always be watching over you! I will watch you become Hokage and save the world!"
The girl's voice, appearance, and eyes were just like
what he couldn't understand. Why was the world so cruel to such a pure and kind girl?
She shouldn't have died, she shouldn't have fallen in a pool of blood.
I have clearly made a vow to protect her! !
But why, why did she die?
"No, I know."
The next moment, Obito's expression changed again.
"This is all fake. Yes, it is fake. Otherwise, how could Rin die?"
He murmured this in his heart, and gradually, a smile appeared on his face.
But that smile seemed extremely distorted.
"This world is fake, Rin and Kakashi, everything is fake, nothing is real!"
At this moment, Obito thought of what Madara said to him in the underground cave.
He suddenly understood. He stroked Rin's cheek in his arms, his eyes filled with determination.
"Rin, I want to create another world with you in it."
"That world is the real one!"
Obito was no longer confused and stunned. He slowly stood up, and at this moment, a familiar feeling suddenly came to his heart.
That wave is extremely familiar. It is moving towards here quickly and will arrive soon.
"Minato-sensei!?"
He pondered in his heart, the chakra fluctuation was actually from his teacher.
He's coming.
Therefore, a ferocious smile appeared on Obito's face again, but after a moment, he regained his composure.
"Minato sensei"
"No, Yellow Flash, you are finally here."
