The instant Minato Namikaze let go, Kakashi's Chidori pierced directly into Katsuhiko Takei's chest.

Blood splattered onto Kakashi's face.

Kakashi's expression was icy cold, devoid of any emotion.

Minato Namikaze turned his head away, refusing to look at what was happening.

Nohara Rin was in tears. The dramatic changes that had occurred in just one day were completely unexpected, and her heart was aching terribly.

...

Night falls.

Kakashi sat alone on a rock, staring blankly at the night sky.

Chiyu sat down next to Kakashi, looked up at the night sky, and asked, "What do you see?"

Kakashi's voice was somewhat bewildered: "I can't see anything, just darkness. Sensei... I've truly lost hope in Konoha..."

Chiyu asked, "As for Konoha, I had already given up hope the moment I entered Konoha. You've experienced it twice and have come to understand it. You should know very well what kind of existence Konoha is now, right?"

Kakashi lowered his head and muttered, "Indifference, hypocrisy, despicable, ugly, stubborn, jealousy, corruption..."

Upon hearing Kakashi's assessment of Konoha, Chiyu smiled and said, "That's quite an apt assessment. Alright, Kakashi, let me tell you about the Sharingan now."

Qianyu's expression was very serious.

Kakashi's gaze was also fixed on Chiba, waiting for Chiba to speak.

Chiyu said, "You should be able to feel it, right? This Sharingan is constantly draining your chakra."

Kakashi nodded.

Moreover, the amount of chakra consumed by this Sharingan is not small.

Chiyu continued, "Actually, with your strength and my guidance, you don't need the Sharingan at all. The Sharingan will only become a burden to you, so my suggestion is to remove it..."

Kakashi shuddered, his heart tightening.

Chiyu sighed and said, "But I think you definitely won't give up on this Sharingan, so I'll try to find a way to help you solve this problem."

Kakashi immediately relaxed and gratefully thanked Chiba, saying, "Thank you, teacher."

Qianyu rubbed Kakashi's head: "Why are you being so formal with your teacher? You are my beloved disciple."

Kakashi, whose head was being rubbed by Chiyu, felt his grief over losing Obito Uchiha improve slightly.

Chiyu explained to Kakashi, "The Sharingan has powerful abilities such as observation, copying, and hypnosis. Because you can't turn off the Sharingan right now, it will automatically activate and use some abilities when you look at things, such as observation and copying."

Using these abilities will accelerate the depletion of your chakra. Therefore, when you're not using the Sharingan, cover your eyes to avoid accelerating chakra consumption, understand?

Kakashi nodded, pulled his headband down a little to cover his Sharingan.

Then Chiyu's expression turned serious: "However, the real trouble doesn't come from the Sharingan, but from the Uchiha clan. I think you know very well what kind of people the Uchiha clan are. They will absolutely not allow the Sharingan to fall into the hands of someone outside the Uchiha clan."

Even if it was given to you by Obito Uchiha, they will definitely try every means to take back the Sharingan, and may even put pressure on the Third Hokage for it.

Therefore, you will face tremendous pressure ahead, so be prepared.

Kakashi covered his left eye with his hand, his eyes resolute, and said, "I will never give up this Sharingan. It was given to me by Obito, and I will not give it to anyone!"

Chiyu's eyes flashed with a cold light: "Don't worry, I'll cover for you in this matter. Those Uchiha guys want to mess with you? I'll see how tough their necks really are. I don't mind breaking the Uchiha's spines!"

After chatting with Kakashi for a few minutes, Chiba went alone to the burial site of Obito Uchiha.

Qianyu squinted as she looked ahead.

Madara Uchiha's tunnel was near Obito Uchiha, who was trapped under a boulder.

Madara Uchiha should have already saved Obito Uchiha, using Hashirama cells to fill in the crushed right half of Obito's body, and then he's going to start instilling the idea of ​​the Eye of the Moon into Obito, and prepare to plunge Obito into despair.

Qianyu felt a little regretful that most of these things couldn't be witnessed, resulting in a loss of witness points income.

However... it seems there's still a way. The current Madara Uchiha... should be very weak.

Chapter 171 Age Spots

Chiyu looked at the cave where Obito Uchiha was trapped and used the Summoning Jutsu.

Qianyu summoned a large number of snakes through spiritual communication.

The snakes summoned by spirits are ordinary snakes without chakra.

Qianyu manipulated the snakes to burrow into the crevices of the cave.

Qianyu formed hand seals again.

"Visual sharing!"

Qianyu's eyes turned into snake eyes.

Chiyu's vision has become the snake's vision.

The snake, weaving through the crevices, successfully found a tunnel.

Qianyu manipulated the snakes to stealthily move into the tunnel.

Half an hour later.

The snake finally reached the end of the tunnel.

At the end of the tunnel was a very open area.

Chiba saw the elderly Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha, whose body was half crushed.

Madara Uchiha appears to be treating Obito Uchiha.

A smile appeared on Qianyu's lips.

Through the snake's vision, Chiba observed Madara Uchiha treating Obito Uchiha.

Madara Uchiha used the half of White Zetsu containing Hashirama cells to fill in the half of Obito Uchiha's body that had been crushed.

The surgery was slow but very steady.

Three hours later, half of Obito Uchiha's body had been repaired.

After bandaging Obito Uchiha with bandages and straps, Madara Uchiha let out a long sigh, sat back down, and closed his eyes to rest.

Qianyu turned off visual sharing and opened the system.

[Witness Madara Uchiha healing Obito Uchiha; reward: 500 Witness Points.]

[Witness Obito Uchiha's transplantation of Hashirama's cells; reward: 500 Witness Points.]

The reward is small, but every little bit helps, and there will be witness points later on, which adds up to a lot.

The next day.

Chiba, Minato Namikaze, Kakashi, and Rin Nohara gathered together.

The mission must continue; we must destroy the Kannabi Bridge.

With Chiba and Minato Namikaze present, the mission to destroy the Kannabi Bridge went smoothly.

Destroying the bridge used for transporting supplies and cutting off enemy support capabilities will greatly hinder the advance of the Iwa ninja.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Konoha ninja forced the Iwa ninja to retreat to the border.

Chiba and Minato Namikaze returned to Konoha to report for duty.

Because Kakashi's team now only has Rin Nohara left.

Minato Namikaze suggested that Kakashi temporarily join his team, but Chiba flatly refused.

Chiba knew perfectly well what Minato Namikaze wanted to do.

It was simply a matter of wanting to instill the Will of Fire into Kakashi, turning him into a puppet without his own thoughts, one who only cared about the sake of Konoha.

With Chiba's intervention, Kakashi could no longer trust the Will of Fire.

Moreover, Rin Nohara is about to get into trouble.

Chiba didn't want Kakashi to experience such despair again.

Rin Nohara was chosen by Madara Uchiha to lead Obito Uchiha into darkness.

Now that Obito Uchiha has been chosen by Madara Uchiha, according to the principle that a major event must occur, Obito Uchiha will definitely turn to the dark side.

Then Nohara Rin was almost certainly going to die.

Because the only person who could drive Obito Uchiha into darkness is either Rin Nohara or Kakashi.

Therefore, Chiyu cannot get involved in this incident.

It doesn't matter who killed Nohara Rin; what matters is that Nohara Rin must die in front of Uchiha Obito.

Therefore, it doesn't matter whether Kakashi participates in this incident or not.

After being rejected by Chiba, Minato Namikaze had no reason to let Kakashi join his team.

Hiruzen Sarutobi dispatched two Chunin to join Minato Namikaze's team.

Since the threat from the Iwa ninja has been eliminated, Chiba and Kakashi are given a rare three-day break before heading to Amegakure to fight against the Iwa and Sunagakure ninja.

Kakashi followed Chiba home.

Kushina Uzumaki is no longer a Jinchūriki, so she has to participate in missions at a relatively high intensity, and therefore is not at home.

After preparing the meal and having dinner with Kakashi, Chiba lay in bed and continuously observed Madara Uchiha and Obito Uchiha using visual sharing.

Three days later, on the night of the same day.

Obito Uchiha, who was seriously injured, woke up.

Obito Uchiha opened his eyes: "Am I...am I dead...?"

When Obito saw Madara Uchiha, he was startled: "Where am I?"

Madara Uchiha spoke up: "The Uchiha clan, situated between the underworld and the mortal realm."

Looking into Madara Uchiha's eyes, Obito asked in confusion, "Your eyes... Could it be that you, grandpa, are also a member of the Uchiha clan?"

Madara Uchiha shifted his gaze: "Well, guess whatever you want."
