Chapter 51: Story of Kakashi, Obito, and Rin
"You are"
Hatake Kakashi's eyes trembled for a moment.
Hatake Kakashi thought he had never seen the mysterious masked man before, yet he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if his brain was momentarily electrified and stuck on the impression of someone!
This intruder...
Looked too much like a comrade from his youth.
"Obito..."
Hatake Kakashi muttered subconsciously.
The painful memories that Hatake Kakashi once dared not recall sprung up like bamboo shoots after rain, from the time he met and became acquainted with Uchiha Obito, until they became a team, until Uchiha Obito ultimately sacrificed himself and was buried by his own hands...
These past memories continuously assaulted his brain, stimulating his nerves, as the image of the eternally smiling Uchiha boy slowly became fixed in reality.
A young man about twenty years old.
With short, tousled hair, a scar on the right side of his face, and a bizarre Mangeky Sharingan in his right eye; his left face was unharmed, with a normal Sharingan in his left eye.
Hatake Kakashi couldn't believe that the person before him was his former comrade, because the latter had two intact eyes, although they were asymmetrical;
Hatake Kakashi also couldn't easily deny it, because the facial contours of the other person really resembled Uchiha Obito from his youth. If Uchiha Obito were still alive in this world, he would definitely look like the person in front of him at the age of twenty...
"Damn kid..."
The mysterious masked man was still angry that his mask had been removed!
The mysterious masked man never imagined that a kid using a simple Wooden Clone could directly unravel the technique of his prized Mangeky Sharingan!
With the cover of the mask, the mysterious masked man could pretend to be a significant figure in the ninja world, using that person's name to recruit followers...
After all...
The real identity of the mysterious masked man...
Was just an insignificant figure...

The Eye of the Moon Plan had not yet officially commenced. If his true identity were exposed, it would severely affect his credibility, and even though he could resolve it with the power of the Mangeky Sharingan, it would cause considerable trouble...
As the mysterious masked man was greatly annoyed...
He then saw the astonished face of Hatake Kakashi in front of him!
"Kakashi!"
The mysterious masked man, looking at Hatake Kakashi, with even greater anger, stood up, kicked at Kakashi's chest, and sent him flying!
A vine caught Hatake Kakashi!
Akihara Kagura, seemingly unaware of anything, asked, "Captain Kakashi, do you know him? This person is from the Uchiha clan. Every time I mention you, he curses you as a waste. Do you two have some kind of grudge?"
"..."
Hatake Kakashi's hand was still trembling.
If before Hatake Kakashi was just a bit suspicious, at this moment he was almost certain that the only Uchiha who had a connection with his life was this one.
"Should be, probably..."
"It's someone I know..."
Hatake Kakashi's forehead slowly showed a drop of cold sweat, his gaze firmly fixed on the face revealed by the mysterious masked man: "Obito, it's you, right?"
"Hmph..."
The mysterious masked man coldly snorted.
This man behind the scenes, named Uchiha Obito, had no choice but to accept the reality that his mask had been lifted, but the anger in his heart only grew stronger!
"Have you recognized me?"
"Kakashi..."
"It's okay if you still want to call that name..."
Uchiha Obito simply admitted his true identity, continuing coldly: "For me, the story of that name is already a thing of the past..."
"You're still alive..."
Hatake Kakashi stared at the other person, dumbfounded.
During the Third Ninja World War, Hatake Kakashi, along with Uchiha Obito and another comrade, went on a mission, resulting in heavy losses for their team...
Hatake Kakashi's eye was blinded by an enemy, and Uchiha Obito was buried under rocks and near death. Before dying, Uchiha Obito gave one of his Sharingan eyes to Hatake Kakashi and entrusted him to take care of their other comrade...
Clearly, at that time on the battlefield of Kannabi Bridge, he had personally buried Uchiha Obito. Why had he come back to life now?
Why wear a mask?
Where had he been all these years?
What had his life been like all these years?
"Why"
Hatake Kakashi had many excuses in his mind and asked tremblingly, "Since you are not dead, why didn't you return to the village..."
"It doesn't matter whether I am alive or not,"
Uchiha Obito spread his hands indifferently and said, "But yes, you would be most concerned about this issue. If I have to give a reason..."
Uchiha Obito raised his arm, pointing at Hatake Kakashi, "Because you did not save Rin!"
"..."
Cold sweat streamed down Hatake Kakashi's forehead.
Rin.
Nohara Rin.
Their other companion.
Hatake Kakashi felt breathless.
At this moment, Kakashi finally understood why every time Akihara Kagura mentioned him, Uchiha Obito would curse him as waste...
Before his death, Uchiha Obito entrusted him to take good care of their other companion, Rin. However, Kakashi did not take good care of Rin, nor was it a case of not saving her...
But...
He killed Rin with his own hands.
Kakashi remembered being awakened from nightmares in the middle of the night, remembering his palms that felt like they could never be washed clean...
Because that hand...
Pierced through Rin's chest.
"Who is Rin?"
Akihara Kagura suddenly asked this question, looking back and forth at the two people, as if he knew nothing about the past: "Right, Captain Kakashi didn't save that person named Rin, so Uchiha Obito, why are you still alive and didn't save Rin?"
"Konoha ninjas are always late..."
A hint of pain flashed in Uchiha Obito's eyes.
Konoha ninjas are always late, even the once fastest ninja in the ninja world, Namikaze Minato, the Yellow Flash, would be late
Uchiha Obito, once a ninja of Konoha...
That day...
He was late too.
The day in his life he should never have been late.
"It's my fault"
Hatake Kakashi's voice was obscure, and when he spoke, one could even see his trembling nerves, but he still tried hard to tell the truth.
"Rin, it was my"
"You killed her."
Uchiha Obito coldly helped him to state the truth.
Uchiha Obito caressed his own eye socket, and continued coldly: "I saw it, you killed Rin with your own hands"
"At that time"
"I thought I was in hell."
When Uchiha Obito arrived, he saw the moment Kakashi killed Rin, saw his most trusted friend kill the person he loved the most!
"..."
Hatake Kakashi's heart sank bit by bit, his lips mumbling, trying to say something more: "At that time, on Rin's body"
"No need to explain, and don't worry, I won't blame you anymore."
Uchiha Obito, perhaps having vented his anger, gradually calmed down and said: "If I have to say, it's the world's fault"
"The village, the ninjas, the wars, Rin who died, you who killed Rin, and me who barely survived, everything in this false world is wrong!"
