Konoha: Uchiha, I get stronger by causing trouble.

Chapter 216 Chiga: Obito, I'll take care of Rin.

"Still water!"

Chiga stroked his chin and considered for a moment, then looked at the sycophantic Uchiha Obito.

It doesn't seem like it's impossible.

If Uchiha Shisui had become Minato's disciple, and assuming Minato hadn't died prematurely, Shisui might have been able to successfully become the Fifth Hokage.

After all, Uchiha Shisui wasn't like a filial son; his values ​​were much more normal, and his methods were much gentler.

In terms of closeness and distance, Chiga is definitely closer to Shisui.

After all, Zhishui was always calling him "Uncle" all the time.

Obito Uchiha was like a rebellious son; he would do the opposite of whatever he was asked to do.

Before Chika could even speak, Minato said to Kakashi, "Kakashi, Obito will always be my student and your future teammate. We can't abandon him!"

"And Obito is also working very hard to catch up with us!"

"Understood, Minato-sensei!"

Kakashi muttered something, then stood up and said, "Minato-sensei, Kushina-senpai, I used up almost all of my ninja tools while I was on the front lines."

"I'm heading to the ninja tool shop to stock up, so I'll take my leave now!"

Minato and Kushina nodded upon hearing this.

Seeing this, Kakashi Hatake nodded to Chiga and the others, indicating that he would leave first, and then walked towards Konoha Village.

When Nohara Rin saw that Hatake Kakashi was about to leave, she immediately left Uchiha Obito's side.

"Kakashi, wait for me!"

She jogged over to Kakashi Hatake, a hopeful smile on her face, and asked, "I'm running low on ninja tools! Let's go together!"

"good!"

Kakashi Hatake glanced at Rin Nohara and said calmly.

Under Obito Uchiha's dazed gaze, Rin Nohara followed behind Kakashi Hatake.

The two figures walking away looked exactly like a couple in love.

Obito Uchiha was overwhelmed with negative emotions after suffering a blow.

Upon seeing this, Chiga also looked up and sighed.

"What is love in this world that makes people willing to die for it? I once had a love that was etched in my heart, but unfortunately, we broke up in the end. The pain I felt was unimaginable to most people!"

"Chiga, I understand you. This feeling is like a jar of wine; it's lost its initial intensity when it was first sealed, leaving only the lingering sweetness of time. Although Rin still abandoned me for Kakashi, I can't forget her!"

"And I firmly believe that as long as I continue to treat Lin well, she will definitely come back to me!"

At that moment, Obito Uchiha felt a sense of shared misfortune when he met Chika's gaze.

Chiga rolled her eyes at Obito Uchiha, looking utterly bewildered, and said, "Are you really going to be a simp?"

"We're all simps! Uncle! Waaaaah!"

"Who said I was a simp? I made that up!"

Chika picked her nose and said irritably.

[A breach of defense from Obito Uchiha, mood value +100!]

[A breach of defense from Obito Uchiha, mood value +100!]

[A breach of defense from Obito Uchiha, mood value +100!]

"Uchiha Chika, I'll fight you to the death!"

"Chiga's personality hasn't changed at all!"

Minato's lips twitched, and he gave Kushina an awkward smile.

In the ninja world, strength has always been paramount. After Chiga awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan, the Uchiha clan truly believed that Chiga was their uncle.

Aside from the clan elders, every Uchiha clan member who sees Chiga will sincerely address him as "Uncle."

Upon hearing this, Kushina covered her mouth and chuckled, saying, "It's already quite good, otherwise how could we two get along so well!"

While Chika and Obito were frolicking, Minato and Kushina had already quietly left.

The two are a legitimate couple, and showing affection here would really hurt Obito Uchiha's feelings.

As the two departed, darkness began to fall, and Sarutobi Asuma and his companions took the opportunity to say goodbye.

Only Chika and Obito Uchiha remained in the arena.

Chiga pinned Obito Uchiha to the ground, looked up and saw that there was no one there, so he released Obito and prepared to go home.

"Hey, Uncle Qian, stop right there!"

Chiga raised an eyebrow, turned to look at Uchiha Obito, and said in surprise, "It's rare to hear you call me 'Uncle.' It seems you have something to ask of me?"

Seeing that his thoughts had been guessed, Obito Uchiha became enraged and said, "Who asked you for anything? I was just giving you a chance to apologize to me!"

"Then go home and get some sleep; you might just dream about it!"

Upon hearing this, Chiga turned and left.

"Hey! Don't go! I really do need your help!"

Upon seeing this, Obito Uchiha immediately slid in front of Chiga to block his path.

Chiga didn't speak, but just quietly looked at Obito Uchiha, wanting to hear what Obito Uchiha wanted from him.

"Uncle, that's the one."

Obito Uchiha hesitated for a long time, but refused to say what kind of help he needed from Chiga.

"If you keep doing that, believe me, I'll beat you up!"

Chiga grew impatient and drew Seven Wolves—or rather, Gale—intending to stab Obito.

Upon seeing this, Obito Uchiha immediately said, "I just want you to use your Mangekyou Sharingan to hypnotize me and then control me to confess my feelings to Rin!"

"What?!"

Chika picked at her ear, wondering if she had misheard.

Judging from the backs of Rin Nohara and Kakashi Hatake as they left together, Obito Uchiha seemed to sense the danger and wanted to confess first, but he was afraid of failing and having no room for maneuver.

So he wanted Chiga to use illusion magic to control him and make him confess his feelings.

In this way, even if he failed, Obito Uchiha could still shift the blame onto Chika.

As for success, that's impossible.

Anyone with eyes can see that Nohara Rin's heart has completely fallen for Hatake Kakashi.

After understanding what Obito Uchiha meant, Chiga also praised Obito Uchiha for being somewhat clever.

It's a pity that such a low IQ was used in this way.

"Chika, you absolutely have to help me! You're my uncle!"

"And it must be said that it's controlled using the genjutsu of the Mangekyou Sharingan!"

"After all, Rin knows my strength now; an ordinary three-tomoe Sharingan can't control my actions at all!"

Chika narrowed her eyes and looked at Obito Uchiha with disdain. "You still need to use the Mangekyou Sharingan?"

What? You want to confess your feelings and then take advantage of Nohara Rin at the same time, striking first to gain the upper hand?

However, Obito Uchiha's words gave Chiga a different thought.

Judging from Madara Uchiha's continued targeting of him, Madara Uchiha has already confirmed that Obito Uchiha is his representative.

They've probably already started planning how to lure Obito Uchiha into darkness.

Although Chiga wanted to put Madara Uchiha's coffin lid on before he died, he also had to consider the possibility of failure.

If he fails, Obito Uchiha will become the spokesperson for the Uchiha clan, causing trouble in the ninja world and ruining the clan's reputation.

Therefore, Chiga wondered if it was possible to leave a backup plan for Obito Uchiha.

"Give me a answer, is it possible or not!"

When Obito Uchiha saw that Chika remained silent, he became anxious.

After a moment of silence, Chiga suddenly clapped his hands together and entered Sage Mode. At the same time, crows flew out from the forest one after another, enveloping Chiga and Obito Uchiha in their shadows.

Chiga then closed her eyes, activated her senses to the maximum, and checked the amount of oxygen in her surroundings.

Obito Uchiha looked at Chiga's actions with confusion.

After a long while, once Chiga was sure there were no White Zetsu around, he casually set up another barrier before looking at Obito Uchiha, stroking his chin and saying, "Since you mentioned genjutsu control, I have another thought about you!"

"What do you want to do?"

Obito Uchiha instinctively took a step back and asked warily.

Having suffered so much at Qianhe's hands, he knew very well one of Qianhe's little habits: when Qianhe touched his chin, it was definitely because he had some bad thoughts.

Chiga didn't pay any attention to Obito's actions, but instead tempted him, "Do you want to become a hero who saves the ninja world? Oh, no, I mean, a hero of Konoha?"

"Uncle, I haven't awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan yet, not even one tomoe!"

"Saving the ninja world is too far removed from my life!"

Obito Uchiha rolled his eyes at Chika.

He even saved the ninja world, but now he can't even beat an ordinary Chunin.

In other words, they can easily bully ninja academy students who haven't graduated yet.

There was no one else around, and Obito Uchiha didn't think it was a big deal to admit he was a noob in front of Chika.

"Don't underestimate yourself. You'll awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan sooner or later. After all, the burning passion in your heart is your greatest talent!"

Chiga said, adding in his mind: "Under the arrangement of that old bastard Uchiha Madara, it would be difficult not to awaken."

At this moment, a fighting spirit flashed in Chiga's eyes. He was starting to get excited about having the chance to fight Uchiha Madara from a distance.

He wanted to see whether his illusion magic was stronger or the other party's plan was more meticulous.

"I just want to confess my feelings to Lin!"

Obito Uchiha didn't understand what Chiga was saying, but he seemed convinced that he would definitely be able to awaken the Mangekyou Sharingan.

Suddenly, Obito Uchiha felt that someone finally recognized him, and it was Chika Uchiha, who was highly respected in the Uchiha clan.

"Uncle, you're praising me like that, I'm shy!"

With a shy smile, Obito Uchiha said, "Actually, getting the Mangekyou Sharingan isn't that difficult. Right now, I just want to confess my feelings to Rin!"

Chika's face darkened, and she barely managed to restrain herself from making a move, saying disdainfully, "Tch! This kind of cheating is beneath you."

"The path I've laid out for you will lead you to become a hero who saves the ninja world!"

"Think about it, thanks to your contributions, the ninja world has returned to peace. Wouldn't such a great achievement make Nohara Rin look at you in a different light?"

"Young girls are most susceptible to this kind of thing; they'll definitely fall for her secretly."

"Kakashi? What is that guy? How can he compare to a ninja hero like you?"

Under Chiga's persuasion, Obito's eyes gradually brightened, and he said without hesitation, "In that case, whatever you need me to do, I have no complaints!"

"Excellent! As expected of the Uchiha clan! So magnanimous!"

Chiga laughed loudly, then said, "Come with me!"

In the grove, the crows stared intently as Chika and Obito Uchiha entered.

In those dark eyes, Obito Uchiha had a bad feeling.

"Wow, so many crows!"

Obito Uchiha had never actually entered the grove before, and only now did he realize that the forest was filled with crows.

Led by Chiga, the two arrived at the temporary research institute that Chiga had dug up.

As Chiga broke the seal, the door to the temporary research institute slowly opened.

Obito Uchiha exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, you actually built a secret base here!"

"Yes, this is a place even Kushina-sensei doesn't know about!"

"However, Kushina-sensei contributed a lot. She stole all the experimental equipment inside and persuaded Lord Orochimaru to sponsor it!"

Chiga replied.

"Huh? A laboratory?"

Upon hearing this, Obito Uchiha's expression changed drastically. He slowed his pace and tried to distance himself from Chiga as much as possible, seemingly ready to make a runaway at any moment.

The word "laboratory" immediately suggests that Chiga is planning to use him as a guinea pig.

Moreover, he actually entered a place that even Kushina-senpai didn't know about.

Who would believe that?

Chiga and Kushina-senpai's relationship is like that of a mother and son. The fact that even Kushina-senpai doesn't know this must be Chiga's ultimate secret.

Once he enters a place like this, how can he possibly get out?

Oh no, am I, Obito Uchiha, going to die here today?

"Alright, don't overthink it. You'll forget everything you saw today. This conversation will only happen again at the right time!"

"But to be honest, I'd rather you never remember!"

Chiga noticed Obito's worry and waved his hand dismissively.

However, Obito Uchiha was even more frightened upon hearing this.

It's unbelievable that someone could forget such inhuman treatment. Wouldn't Chihe bring him over to be abused every day?

"No, I don't want to be a guinea pig!"

"Uncle, my grandma's calling me for dinner, I have to go now!"

Obito Uchiha suddenly turned around and exerted his strength, trying to escape from this place.

Unfortunately, having come this far, just as Obito Uchiha had imagined...

Even Kushina didn't know about this place. How could she possibly leave with her memories intact after entering?

Even if the Third Hokage came, he would leave two ounces of meat behind!

Chiga was already prepared, and the moment Obito Uchiha turned around, he was already behind Obito Uchiha.

He struck Obito Uchiha on the back of the neck with a chop to knock him unconscious, then dragged Obito by the leg with one hand toward the experimental table.

After placing Obito Uchiha on the experimental table, Chiga casually gave him an anesthetic injection.

Then Chika took out a scalpel and looked at Obito Uchiha with a serious expression.

"Obito, I'm about to change the course of your life!"

"If you succeed, you might even win the heart of your beloved."

"If I fail, then she'll be your wife, and I'll take care of her! Rest assured, I'll look after Nohara Rin!"

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes!"
