Naruto: The ANBU God

Chapter 112: Uncertainty



Land of Soup

Konoha Camp

At this moment, inside a tent, Jiraiya, Minato, Tsunade, Rin, and Shizune were all present.

The reason, of course, was that Kakashi had been attacked by Obito Uchiha, resulting in serious injuries, and one of his eyes had been destroyed. If Minato hadn't arrived in time, Kakashi might have died.

"Tsunade, how is Kakashi?" Jiraiya looked at Tsunade, who had just finished treating Kakashi, and asked with a grim expression.

"There's no danger to his life," Tsunade replied but then added with a hint of amazement, "In fact, it was a blessing in disguise: Kakashi obtained a Mangekyō Sharingan, something most of the Uchiha clan would wish to have."

Jiraiya raised an eyebrow in surprise. "How can that be? Obito destroyed his eye... Why did he leave a Mangekyō Sharingan?"

"It's really strange," Tsunade said, shaking her head, "since he destroyed Kakashi's eye. Why give him his eye?"

"I don't know..." Jiraiya sighed in frustration as he rubbed his temple, "Maybe, deep down, there's still some part of his conscience left... Maybe he feels guilty!"

Tsunade pondered for a moment. "Maybe... Minato, any leads on who rescued Obito?"

"No, none," Minato replied in a somber voice, lowering his gaze with regret. "It was some sort of white humanoid creature. I managed to eliminate eighteen of its clones, but it eventually escaped."

He remained silent for a moment before murmuring, "Obito shouldn't be dead, only seriously injured... I haven't been a good teacher."

Tsunade frowned momentarily before sighing. "Then, all we can do is wait for Kakashi to wake up and tell us something... something that will help us understand why Obito changed like this."

"That's all we can do for now..." Jiraiya and Minato nodded bitterly.

The image of Obito in their minds was of an optimistic boy, always smiling, a little naive but full of determination and with a big heart. The Obito they remembered was kind, protective, and always willing to help his comrades.

But everything had changed.

After a crushing victory over the forces of Kumogakure and Iwagakure, Minato had taken Kakashi, Obito, and Rin on a simple mission, but something had gone terribly wrong.

After completing the mission, Obito had convinced Kakashi to go to a secluded place... and there, he had attacked him.

"Perhaps... perhaps to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan!" Suddenly, Rin, who had been silent until then, looked up with evident pain in her eyes. "On the battlefield in the Land of Grass, I already noticed that Obito was starting to change. He became obsessed with power, training in secret... he wanted to get stronger, always stronger."

Her voice broke slightly. "I realized that something was wrong with him, but I didn't pay enough attention... And that led to what he did to Kakashi."

Jiraiya, Minato, and Tsunade exchanged looks filled with concern.

It was clear that Obito had been influenced during the time in the Land of Grass battlefield. His faith in the Will of Fire had faltered, and little by little, he had been drawn toward a dark and extreme path.

The blame lay with that white humanoid creature that had rescued him.

And now, Obito had attacked Kakashi, his closest friend, perhaps seeking to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan and gain more power.

…..

On the Other Side

Inside the largest tent in the middle of the camp.

"Kakashi, is this really your destiny?" Sitting near the table, Luo Lei took a cup of hot tea, sipped it, and watched everything happening in the distant tent while murmuring to himself, "I would have never imagined... Obito, you've finally fallen into Madara's hands, huh?"

Not even he had anticipated this.

After disrupting Madara's plan, he found another way to seduce Obito, who already had issues with his mindset, and helped him awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan.

The only good news, perhaps, was that Obito also left Kakashi with a Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Shizune seems to be growing well, doesn't she?..."

Luo Lei narrowed his eyes, just as he was about to say something, when without warning, a series of system notifications resonated in his mind.

[Congratulations, host. For defeating the Ninja coalition, destroying more than 8,000 Rock Shinobi, capturing more than 1,800 Cloud Shinobi, and stomping the Third Raikage—known as the strongest Raikage in history—to death, the system rewards you with 6% experience.]

[Congratulations, host, the history of the ninja world has been rewritten, and the system rewards you with 1% experience.]

[Congratulations, host, the ninja world has entered your own era, and the system rewards you with 1% experience.]

[I hope the host continues to work hard, follow their heart, not be bound, and do as they wish.]

"Tch... only 8%..."

Hearing the notifications in his head, he withdrew his gaze with reluctance.

The next moment, as he was still indulging in it, an incomparably majestic force poured into his body and began to transform him.

"Nice..."

After a while, he let out a faint smile, feeling his body transforming once again. Perhaps there is nothing more satisfying than becoming stronger than oneself.

"Wait a moment... How many times has my strength improved?"

Frowning, he clenched his fist, resisted his inner excitement, and opened his attribute panel.

Available Template Extraction: 0]

"Shit...!"

Taking a quick look at his panel, although he was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation. It was due to the 8% experience from the template fusion this time, causing his personal attributes to surge immensely.

"Still can't get a second template?"

After a few seconds, his eyes landed on the number of template extractions, and he shook his head in disappointment.

It seems the template must be fully unlocked and fused before a new one can be extracted.

In this case, to speed up the unlocking of the Homelander template, this time he will return to Konoha.
