"Yes, Uchiha Madara!"
"Weren't you... already dead? Killed by the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, in the Valley of the End?"
"He is indeed dead, but I still crawled out of hell and have been alive until now." Uchiha Madara slowly moved his feet and walked in front of Uchiha Obito, "I have been waiting for someone."
"Who are you waiting for?"
"Waiting for an Uchiha genius, an outstanding successor who can inherit my thoughts and skills." Uchiha Madara stared at Uchiha Obito, "You can barely be considered one."
"Me?" Uchiha Obito said in disbelief, "I am... a genius?! Or an unparalleled genius?!"
"Just barely." Uchiha Madara sighed, "It's a pity that you have to leave, and my body can't hold out until you come back..."
It would be a lie to say that Uchiha Obito was not shocked by Uchiha Madara's evaluation.
Uchiha Madara is a legend both in Konoha and in the entire ninja world, a true legend.
How could Uchiha Obito remain calm when a legend personally described him as a genius, and an unparalleled genius at that?
Moreover, Uchiha Madara even said bluntly that he wanted to teach Uchiha Obito everything he knew, which made Uchiha Obito's originally firm heart waver.
Should I hurry back to Nohara Lin, or...
Seeing Uchiha Obito's struggle, Uchiha Madara curled the corners of his mouth, and the magatama of the three-magatama Sharingan in his eye sockets slowly and imperceptibly turned a circle.
Illusions are sometimes very useful, especially when there are inner struggles and disagreements.
Chapter 170 Konoha Genius Hunting Plan.
"Senior Uchiha Madara, I... still have to go back!"
Under the dual intervention of Uchiha Madara's temptation and illusion, after a fierce inner struggle, Uchiha Obito finally chose Rin.
When hearing Uchiha Obito's answer, Uchiha Madara was also stunned, but then he was extremely happy in his heart.
Uchiha Obito loves deeply enough, and when he loses his loved one, the power that is born will be stronger!
"Then I won't stop you."
Uchiha Madara's tone remained calm. Being an experienced and shrewd man, he would naturally not prepare only one plan.
It's time for White Zetsu to appear...
"Hey, kid!" White Zetsu's voice came at the right time, "Nohara Lin seems to be a medical ninja, right?"
"Uh...yes."
"Let's not talk about whether your return can make her safer. Just look at your horrible appearance... are you sure she won't be scared?"
"No...Lin won't..."
"But who can say for sure?" Bai Zetsu's voice was full of temptation. "Anyway, Nohara Lin is safe now. Why don't you go see her after you have fully recovered here?"
"And while you are recovering, you can also receive instruction from Uchiha Madara and thus increase your own strength."
"When your body is restored to its original state, you will have also learned all the skills of Uchiha Madara. Although your strength may not be the best in the ninja world, it will be easy for you to deal with those who force you into a desperate situation."
"Then you will be able to better protect Nohara Lin. After all, you only have one life. Wouldn't it be nice to stay together forever?"
In fact, after White Zetsu said so much, what impressed Uchiha Obito the most was his current appearance that was neither human nor ghost.
He really didn't want Nohara Lin to see him like this...
"Then... I'll go check on Lin. Once I'm sure she's safe... I'll be back!"
Although he couldn't accept being seen in this state by Nohara Lin, secretly going to see Nohara Lin to make sure she was safe was a very compromise solution.
Uchiha Madara naturally wouldn't say anything more about this.
However, Uchiha Obito's current physical condition is not enough to support him to awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan after losing his loved one.
So, we still have to delay it a little longer.
"Your brain is starting to work, isn't it?" Bai Jue said sarcastically, "But do you know where you are now?"
"where is it?"
"In the Frost Country! And it's in the northernmost part!" White Zetsu now turned into the best supporting actor, "Then do you know where Nohara Lin is now?"
"Where...?" When he asked again, Uchiha Obito's heart almost fell to the bottom.
"She's at the southeastern border of the Fire Nation!"
Uchiha Obito stumbled and collapsed, "How could it be... How could it be so far away..."
"Do you think I want to?" White Zetsu complained, "Everyone thought you were dead, and I couldn't send you to the Konoha Field Hospital at the time, so I could only carry you back here..."
"..."
Uchiha Obito remained silent, sat down on the ground, his mind full of thoughts.
From the northernmost part of the Frost Country to the southeastern border of the Fire Country, the straight-line distance is at least 1600 kilometers, and this requires Uchiha Obito to cross several war zones...
The danger was self-evident, and Uchiha Obito was careful to secretly take a look at Nohara Rin before returning to recover from his injuries.
But in the current situation, no matter what Uchiha Obito plans, his current physical condition and strength are simply unable to support him to complete his plan.
"what do I do……"
Uchiha Obito held his head in pain, "Why, why is this happening!"
"Alright Obito."
Uchiha Madara felt that the time had come, and the illusion cast on Uchiha Obito also worked.
Although the illusion still could not change Uchiha Obito's obsession with meeting Nohara Rin, it did affect Uchiha Obito's judgment to a certain extent, causing Uchiha Obito to ignore many feasible possibilities.
For example, he went from the Frost Country to the northeastern border of Konoha to seek the help of Hatake Akira. Another example is that he asked his fellow tribesmen fighting in the southeastern part of the Fire Country to take care of Nohara Rin on his behalf through the Uchiha clan's inherent summoning beasts, the Ninja Cat Clan.
Due to the problem in cognition, Uchiha Obito naturally fell into a dead end, which was exactly what Uchiha Madara wanted.
"Senior Madara, do you have any solution?!"
Hearing Uchiha Madara calling him, Uchiha Obito suddenly looked up, his eyes full of hope.
"There is a way, but it's up to you to decide."
"You say!"
"When White Zetsu rescued you, he found a very interesting place." Uchiha Madara pointed to the left side of Uchiha Obito's body. "Your entire left side was shattered by the back and forth earth escape technique, but many of your key organs are still intact."
"You should have died immediately, but you managed to hold on until White Zetsu arrived, and even held on until here."
"According to my judgment, the reason you were able to survive was thanks to your two-magatama Sharingan."
After a good start, Uchiha Madara began to show off his knowledge.
"You are really a genius, the most outstanding junior I have ever seen." Uchiha Madara pointed at Uchiha Obito's eyes, "You can see two magatama as soon as you open your eyes, which is enough to show your talent."
"And the Sharingan is known as the eye that reflects the soul. When you are on the verge of death, it will give birth to the power that corresponds to what you want to do most in your heart."
"If my guess is correct, the power born from your eyes should be the power of space."
"But... that is the power derived from the Uchiha clan's highest level eye, the Mangekyō, right?"
Uchiha Obito raised his doubts doubtfully. As a member of the Uchiha clan, it was impossible for him not to know some information about the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Even though Uchiha Obito was a marginal figure in the Uchiha clan, he would still know a little about him through whispers and observation.
"This is what makes you different from others, and it's worth my teaching you everything I know." Uchiha Madara's tone was full of admiration. "You can use the two magatama Sharingan to unleash the special power that can only be born after the Mangekyō Sharingan. Even if there is only a trace of it, it is enough to prove your talent."
"I can conclude that with my full support and your talent, I believe it won't be long before you can awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan and use the supreme power hidden in your eyes!"
"Can I...really? And the power of space contained in my eyes... compared to the Flying Thunder God Technique... which one is stronger?"
After Uchiha Madara said this, Uchiha Obito suddenly had a vague idea in his mind.
Before the Third Ninja World War began, he had heard about the anecdote that Hatake Akira rushed back to Konoha Village from the southwestern border of Konoha in just 10 minutes!
In other words, as long as the power contained in his eyes reaches the level of Flying Thunder God Technique, then...
I don't need to take 10 minutes to get from the Frost Kingdom to the southeastern border of the Fire Kingdom. Even if it takes an hour, it is much better than walking!
"Flying Thunder God Technique?!" Uchiha Madara's eyes flashed with disdain, "Compared to the supreme power in the Uchiha bloodline, what is it?"
"It's just a joke!" Uchiha Madara pointed at his own eyes, "Obito, you must always believe in these eyes. They can give you everything you want and accomplish everything you want!"
"Senior Madara, please teach me!"
Uchiha Obito was instantly filled with energy. Since the spatial power in his eyes was stronger than the Flying Thunder God Technique, the time he spent on training could be made up in another way.
But the prerequisite for this method is that Uchiha Obito must awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan as quickly as possible.
"Not urgent……"
On the contrary, Uchiha Madara, who most wanted Uchiha Obito to stay, was not so anxious at this time.
In addition to the fact that Uchiha Obito's stay was a foregone conclusion, Uchiha Madara also wanted to test Uchiha Obito's temper.
"Senior Madara, you..."
"When I said there's no rush, I meant that you shouldn't be too obsessed with the pursuit of strength." Uchiha Madara slowly moved to the feet of the Outer Path Demon Statue, sat down cross-legged, and pointed in a direction.
"There are some documents related to the Sharingan in that room. You can go take a look first. You can also take this opportunity to recover your body."
"it is good!"
Uchiha Obito nodded, then ignored Uchiha Madara and ran in the direction of his finger.
"Lin, wait for me!"
Uchiha Obito shouted in his heart, "When I awaken the Mangekyō Sharingan and possess the true spatial power from my blood, I will come to find you!"
……
Iwagakure Village.
Ohnoki stood blankly in the office, the piece of information in his hand had many wrinkles due to the force he exerted.
The loess is dead...
The Earthquake Core Team was completely wiped out...
The plan to steal the house failed...
The instigator was none other than Hatake Akira, who had recently become famous in the war between the Fire Kingdom and the Lightning Kingdom.
