Nohara Mio hummed in agreement.
Then Nohara Rin caught up with Kiyoshi, who had already gone out.
As she looked back on the past, Nohara Rin took a deep breath.
Her breathing had become heavy.
After doing something, the body often develops an instinctive response.
That is, to start adapting in advance.
Rin Nohara is about to activate her Water Release defensive technique.
She pursed her supple lips, quickly caught up with Qing Si, and stood shoulder to shoulder with him.
"Come to my house?"
Nohara Lin asked.
The two walked into a deserted alley.
"I set up a sealing barrier, so no one can get in and no one can see it."
Qingsi smiled slightly.
Sealing techniques and barriers are inextricably linked; the better one's mastery of sealing techniques, the better one's barrier will be.
In addition to learning about the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan from Kushina, Kiyoshi also learned a lot about the Uzumaki clan's barriers.
"Well……"
Soon, voices unknown to anyone could be heard in the alleyway covered by the barrier.
Occasionally, passersby would be guided in other directions by the barrier.
This is the barrier.
If one's skill in this area is not as high as that of the spellcaster, it is almost impossible to break the spell unless one relies on brute force.
Kiyoshi also incorporated the Sharingan's power into it, enhancing its stealth capabilities.
To get this far, one needs to be stronger than Kiyoshi in genjutsu, eye power, and chakra.
Therefore, Kiyoshi was very reassured.
But Nohara Rin was different.
Nervous, she used her ninjutsu much faster than usual.
……
The opportunity is coming!
Obito pretended to be hungry as well and walked into Ichiraku Ramen.
I casually ordered a bowl of ramen from the owner and glanced at Nohara Mio, who was taking small bites of her ramen.
Why are you all alone here?
Obito started the conversation.
"They went to buy candy."
Nohara Mio-michi.
She didn't seem afraid of strangers.
"Yeah."
Obito forced a smile.
Shall we go buy some candy?
Obito's intuition told him that this matter was not simple.
But he doesn't want to think about Uchiha Kiyoshi right now.
He could feel the emptiness in his heart.
With each beat, something inexplicable fills it.
Nohara Mio's image was reflected in Obito's eyes.
This beautiful feeling filled his heart.
On several occasions, Obito had the urge to take Nohara Mio away directly.
But he could sense a massive amount of chakra nearby.
That chakra disgusted him; it was Kiyoshi's chakra.
Obito was unsure whether Kiyoshi had left the "Flying Thunder God Technique" mark on Nohara Mio.
If a mark is left behind, even if it is taken away, it will be taken away by Kiyoshi.
They even went so far as to trace Xiao's lair and deliver a fatal blow to him.
Obito suppressed this impulse.
He planned to go back and ask Black Zetsu if Madara Uchiha had left behind any technique that could erase the "Flying Thunder God Mark".
Through years of intelligence observation of Kiyoshi, Obito also learned that the mark of the "Flying Thunder God Technique" could exist for a long time and was difficult to erase by ordinary means.
As for how long it could last, Obito didn't know.
Madara said that Black Zetsu was a creation of his will, so he should also know about Tobirama Senju.
The "Flying Thunder God Technique" is a forbidden technique of the Second Hokage, who was also a figure from Madara's era.
Time passed slowly, and in order to spend more time with Nohara Mio, he even ate three bowls of noodles.
"Mio."
Rin Nohara's voice came from the street.
Obito was startled, knowing that the time had come.
After paying the bill, he left with his head down.
"You are back."
Nohara Mio turned her head.
"These are candies I bought."
Nohara Rin spoke, with some candy in her fair palm.
Mio Nohara happily took out the candy, only to notice that Rin Nohara's palms were sweaty.
Is it too hot outside?
Nohara Mio looked up at Nohara Rin and noticed that she also had sweat on her forehead.
A few strands of black hair clung to her face, adding a touch of messiness.
"Let's go."
Kiyoshi ruffled Nohara Mio's hair and turned to look at Obito, who had blended into the crowd.
Alright, what will Obito choose?
Qingsi smiled slightly.
Chapter 378 The Development of the Orphanage, Nono's Submission
After blending into the crowd, Obito turned back for one last look at Kiyoshi, Mio Nohara, and the others.
A faint hint of Sharingan crimson flashed in his eyes.
As they stepped into a deserted street, Obito's figure suddenly disappeared into the vortex.
When he reappeared, the scene had changed to the base of the New Dawn organization.
His trip to Konoha was quite fruitful.
First, I learned that Kushina was about to give birth, and then I also learned about Nohara Mio.
"Kyuubi..."
Obito had an idea.
Tailed beasts have varying numbers of tails, and there's an unwritten rule that the more tails a tailed beast has, the stronger it is.
There is no concrete evidence for this, but many people think so.
This also applies to Obito.
Back then, Madara Uchiha chose the Nine-Tails as his summoning beast and took it with him to fight Hashirama Senju.
Why didn't he choose the tailed beasts such as the one-tailed, two-tailed, or three-tailed ones?
It was precisely because Madara Uchiha recognized the Nine-Tails' power that he was attracted to it.
If the Nine-Tails were to unleash its power in Konoha, even with Kiyoshi there, it would still have a significant impact on the village.
He could also take advantage of the chaos to take Nohara Mio away.
Even... to take revenge on Minato Namikaze.
That's right, Obito wanted to take revenge on Minato Namikaze.
He suspected that the child in Kushina's womb was Minato Namikaze's child.
Back when he was still in Konoha and belonged to Minato's team, Minato Namikaze concealed his feelings for Kushina.
If Minato Namikaze had arrived a little faster, he wouldn't have been crushed under the boulder.
If he stays in Konoha, he might be able to protect Rin and keep her from Kiyoshi's advances.
Unfortunately it was too late.
By the time he escaped from Madara Uchiha, the die was cast.
Minato Namikaze, who was vaguely known as the fastest ninja in the world during that period, failed to catch up with anything.
It was at that moment that a seed of resentment was planted in Obito's heart.
"spot."
At the Shinkyo organization's base, Nagato looked at Obito who had suddenly appeared.
How's the "interstitial cell" transplant going?
Obito asked.
Nagato's legs were a weakness, preventing him from running freely, which essentially meant he lost the mobility of a ninja.
In the past, he deliberately indulged Nagato's flaws to prevent Nagato from getting out of control.
It seems that without strengthening the overall strength of the Akatsuki members, it will be difficult to deal with Uchiha Kiyoshi.
"The transplant will begin in two days. Orochimaru is currently cultivating the bio-prosthetic limb using 'Hashirama cells.'"
Nagato said.
"Very good, the 'interstitial cells' will be of great help to you."
Obito gave Nagato a deep look.
Madara Uchiha once told him that if the power of the Uchiha and Senju clans were combined, they could obtain all things in the universe.
Nagato is a hybrid of the Senju and Uzumaki clans.
After obtaining "Hashirama cells," he might awaken the "Wood" Release ability just like him.
It also greatly increases chakra levels.
Then Nagato would have much more control over the "Gedo Mazo" and wouldn't have had as much trouble.
This is a double-edged sword.
This also means that Obito will no longer be able to control Nagato as easily.
"I know."
Long red hair obscured Nagato's eyes, and the dim candlelight in the cave cast shadows on Nagato's emaciated body.
