Chapter 50 - 50: Are You Konoha Also Coveting Our Village Treasure?
The hesitation in Kakashi's eyes was fleeting but he still persuades him: "Stop! You want to get information about Obito because you are afraid he will kill you, right?"
"..."
Uehara's face changed color suddenly.
When Kakashi saw Uehara's expression his mood gradually calm down and put on a nice and leisure attitude: "You can put Hanare down first because only I can help you now!"
After speaking, to ensure him, Kakashi even began to actively praise his old friend: "Obito is the most talented ninja in Konoha's history. Without my help, you can only run away!"
"..."
The expression on Uehara's face collapsed again. He looked at Kakashi and with a hard face he says: "Kakashi-san, do I look like a fool to you?"
"Don't be impulsive"
Kakashi saw Uehara's fingers move slightly, for fear that he would kill Hanare on an impulse. He can only repeatedly persuade him: "You put Hanare down first, we can talk it slowly..."
"..."
Uehara hesitates for a while, but he still tightly pinched Hanare's neck, and asked in a deep voice: "If Tobi-senpai is Obito from your Konoha then he is a spy sent by Konoha, isn't it? "
"..."
Kakashi shook his head and said in a deep voice: "That's not the case. Obito is now a... missing-nin. He left the village twelve years ago."
"I do not believe you."
Uehara gritted his teeth and continue: "Konoha must take him back whether he is Konoha's spy or Konoha's missing-nin!"
"This is what I am doing."
Kakashi immediately agreed and asked aloud: "But you have to tell me where he is active recently?"
Uehara shook his head and said in confusion: "I don't know...senpai ask me to perform a mission to recruit a ninja in Kirigakure to defect. I suspect he may have been active in the Water Country."
Kakashi began to explore the information productively: "Why did Obito let you recruit a Kiri ninja to defect? Is it because he hates Kirigakure? Why did you come? What is your relationship?"
He asks you to attract a Kiri ninja to defect, but you seem to have recruited three Seven Ninja Swordsmen!
"I am from a... small village."
Uehara is silent for a while. He cursed Kakashi in his heart and whispered his own story: "Because I want a higher-level position in the village, I have to complete a difficult mission."
"..."
Kakashi is a little surprised. Listening to Uehara's words, he probably guessed the identity of Uehara which is the next leader of a Ninja Village, right?
Uehara checks that there were no loopholes in his words and continued: "Tobi-senpai recommend me to the leader of the village for this kind of mission. My teacher, a village elder did not want me to be in danger, but the leader still agrees…"
"I understand."
Kakashi nodded and continued softly: "Why would the leader of your village agree with Obito's dangerous opinion?"
Uehara gritted his teeth with a touch of grief and anger on his face: "It may be because the leader of the village does not want me to get that position... and Tobi-senpai has a very good relationship with the leader. The leader listened to everything Obito said, we doubted that the leader is controlled by a genjutsu for a while, but there is no clue."
Uehara slowly lowered his head, and said with a sad expression: "Actually, before me, only Tobi-senpai in the village could get that position, but then I..."
This is very vague.
In a sense, this is not wrong.
After all, there are only two interns in Akatsuki's organization Uehara Naraku and Uchiha Obito, both of them seem to want to become official members of Akatsuki.
And even if Kakashi confronts Obito in the future, will he leak Akatsuki's information on his own initiative?
"I have roughly understood what you mean."
Kakashi sighed in his heart, combined with the information he knew and the concealed and mixed words of Uehara. He began to analyze the information he had obtained.
More than ten years ago, in the battle of Kannabi Bridge, Uchiha Obito did not die in the battle and I don't know how he escapes from the predicament. Later, Obito witnessed Rin's death in his own hands then became angry and always been looking for an opportunity to take revenge.
Later, Obito joined a small Ninja Village to hide by controlling the leader of the Ninja Village with genjutsu.
This is not troublesome.
If the pupil power of Obito's Sharingan greatly increased, it will not be difficult to control the leader of a small Ninja Village, even a Bijuu can be controlled!
Kakashi remembers the first time he saw Obito take off his mask and personally confess to killing the Namekaze couple...
Maybe, that thing is true.
Since Uchiha Itachi can kill his parents and his whole clan for strength, why is it impossible for Obito to kill his Sensei?
Kakashi thought he had finished analyzing the information he had obtained and wanted to get the last news: "Then, your excellency... which Ninja Village are you from?"
Since Uehara has been hiding his identity Kakashi is still a little unwilling. He added from the side: "If I want to take him out of your Ninja Village, I still need your help."
"Kakashi-san."
Uehara stood up slowly looks at Kakashi coldly and said: "Don't ask me this question again. There's a limit to what I can tell you... Even if we see each other again in the future, I won't admit that I told you Tobi-senpai information."
When he said this a scorn flashed across Uehara's face: "I'll be honest with you, let Konoha's Third Hokage and other people handle this matter because it will be impossible with Kakashi-san power... "
"..."
Kakashi's eyes flashed.
Their Third Hokage Sarutobi doesn't know about Uchiha Obito's situation. At least for now, Kakashi doesn't want to tell Sarutobi Hiruzen; and once Sarutobi Hiruzen knows, he will only choose to block the news and send people who are good at dealing with the dark side when troubles come out.
Such as Konoha Root leader Shimura Danzo.
Not long ago, the Root leader Shimura Danzo was inexplicably imprisoned, and now if Obito matter is revealed, wouldn't Shimura Danzo come back again?
"Let's go."
Uehara waved his hand, turned, and walked towards the battlefield of Orochimaru, Kisame, Mangetsu, and others: "I just met Orochimaru who stole the treasure of our village here. I want to take the treasure back from him."
"Wait…"
Kakashi glanced at Orochimaru and suddenly said, "Your Excellency, Orochimaru is Konoha's traitor..."
"Hatake Kakashi!"
Uehara turns his head abruptly and staring at Kakashi with cold eyes. A murderous aura emanated from him: "Does you Konoha's ninja also want to covet the treasures of our Ninja Village? Go away! Don't force me to kill you guys!"
