Chapter 266: Obito

"You have to try everything to know for sure. Besides, we're not losing anything, right? 

It'll just take a bit of time."

Sure? 

It's Uchiha Obito, of course he's sure! 

Does he really need to be sure? 

Yan was certain that Obito would come after receiving the message.

Because the other Sharingan was the last gift he gave to his teammate before he went dark, and Obito wouldn't allow anyone to destroy it.

Also, by spreading the message, they were essentially telling Obito, "We've figured out your identity. Stop hiding, it's pointless."

Since I've already been discovered, why bother hiding?

Just go for it!

Besides, Obito is confident he can leave safely.

"So you are saying that the fake Uchiha Madara might actually be Obito, Uchiha Obito?"

After hearing this from Nara Shikaku, Kakashi was struck as if by lightning and stood frozen in place.

"According to the Yan's prediction, it is him. But whether it's true or not depends on the plan and whether he actually shows up. If he does, that would confirm the assistant's guess."

Shikaku said seriously.

"Although I still don't get how Obito, who was supposed to have died on the battlefield, could show up and even seek revenge against the village, his teachers, and their families."

"It's Rin..."

Kakashi seemed to lose all his strength, sitting limply in the chair, painfully pulling at his white hair.

"If this person really is Obito, then the reason for his revenge can only be one thing—Rin."

She was a classmate, a companion, a friend, and someone with whom he had a certain competitive relationship.

Kakashi knew that Obito loved Rin deeply, so deeply that it ran to his bones.

But Rin had sacrificed herself, dying on the battlefield, and was even killed by Kakashi's own hands.

Memories Kakashi didn't want to face started to resurface.

Shikaku sighed and patted his shoulder in comfort.

After the battle in Amegakure Village, the Akatsuki organization completely sank into the shadows, hiding underground.

Although the five great ninja villages suffered heavy losses, the Akatsuki didn't come out unscathed either.

The organization had almost used up all its accumulated strength, and Nagato nearly got himself killed.

Sasori fell on the battlefield, almost getting killed by Chibaku Tensei.

Kakuzu lost three of his hearts.

The only ones unharmed were Obito and Black Zetsu.

"The bounty board has some information you might find interesting."

Black Zetsu slowly emerged from underground, handing a scroll to Obito, who was sitting motionless like a statue.

"Oh?"

Obito didn't think much of it. "Is it about the threat declarations from the five great ninja villages?"

Black Zetsu didn't speak, silently watching him.

Obito raised an eyebrow, opened the scroll, and after a few seconds, his visible eye's pupil shrank, and he stood up in shock.

"This is the kind of information that interests me?"

Obito turned to glare at Black Zetsu. 

"You think I'd be interested in this? I've been exposed!"

"Damn, How did they figure it out?"

"It's probably related to Madara-sama's eye techniques."

Black Zetsu was also surprised when he received this information.

After considering it, he thought there were a few possible reasons, with the most important being Uchiha Madara's eye techniques.

"Eye techniques?"

Obito's face under the mask frowned.

They figured out his identity just from his eye techniques?

Noticing Obito's confusion, Black Zetsu continued, 

"Based on my guess, it seems Konohagakure discovered your identity, and it was most likely Uchiha Yan. Madara-sama led the Uchiha and Senju clans in battles since the Warring States period, and there should be records about him in the Uchiha archives."

"Madara-sama never used space-time techniques like Kamui. From that, we can infer a lot of interesting details."

"You said you checked all the Uchiha clan's archives and scrolls, didn't you?"

Obito's tone was filled with dissatisfaction. He felt like Black Zetsu had set him up.

"What happened to your guarantee? Is this how you handle things, Black Zetsu?"

Faced with Obito's questioning, Black Zetsu could only feel helpless.

"Perhaps it's also because there are records left somewhere else. After all, on the night of the Nine-Tails attack, Konohagakure has always been suspicious of the Uchiha, harboring a lot of hostility, and has always targeted the Uchiha clan. 

Uchiha, in an attempt to prove themselves, might have accidentally found some clues or evidence." 

Black Zetsu wasn't sure if there were any detailed records or files on Uchiha Madara within the Uchiha clan. 

Though it had checked carefully, who knows? 

Such things are hard to say, considering Uchiha Madara was once the Uchiha Patriarch. He was highly regarded by the clan, and any secret records kept in the shadows would be hard to find. 

Moreover, the eye techniques and Ninjutsu that Uchiha Madara used were difficult to hide. After years of fighting, some secrets are just impossible to keep under wraps. 

"Then what do you think we should do now? Nagato and Konan know about this, so they certainly won't cooperate with us honestly, and the five major ninja villages actually dared to threaten me!!!" 

Dammit, they actually want to destroy the last gift I left for Kakashi. 

This is a blatant move! 

They are clearly telling you, Uchiha Obito, that your identity has been exposed, and now we're going to destroy your other Sharingan. 

You can show yourself if you want, just as long as you don't regret it. 

Destroy one of your Sharingan? You know just how much it will affect your power, Uchiha Obito." 

After venting in anger, Obito gradually calmed down: 

"Forget it, after all, Nagato never trusted us. As long as we can control the Rinnegan, it'll be fine." 

The five major ninja villages simultaneously sent messages to the bounty offices in their respective lands, all aimed at making sure Obito would hear these messages and force him to show himself. 

They even gave a deadline. 

"Meet us at the old Amegakure Village site. If you don't come, we'll destroy your Sharingan." 

At the camp, Oonoki couldn't help but ask: 

"Yan, don't you think we should set up some traps to target him?" 

Yan, aiming to force Obito out, had no intention of preparing traps; his main goal was just to expose his identity. 

Oonoki and the others were somewhat unwilling. They were hoping to use this opportunity to capture Obito and see if they could extract more information. 

Knowing what they were trying to do, Yan shrugged helplessly and said: 

"If you don't trust me, then set up whatever traps you think will work." 

"My main goal is still to expose his identity, not to capture him. You all know how difficult space-time Ninjutsu and eye techniques can be." 

Setting traps to catch Obito? 

That's wishful thinking. Obito is not so easy to catch. 

Without dealing with Kamui's space intangibility, catching him is impossible! 

To solve this, either use another Kamui Sharingan to cause trouble or use sealing techniques to seal the space, preventing Obito from escaping. 

Unfortunately, the first option doesn't work, and the second is even harder to pull off.
