Chapter 112 - Chapter 13: Zetsu's Five-Step Technique Can't Compare to Aomi's Words

Konoha.

In a forest.

Uchiha Aomi and Uchiha Obito sat cross-legged under the shade of a tree, one with a gentle and calm expression, the other frowning and sighing.

The weather was wonderful today.

The sky was a clear tile blue, and sunlight filtered through the dense forest, casting patches of warmth on the ground. A gentle breeze blew softly, rustling the leaves with a soothing sound.

In such a peaceful and quiet atmosphere, Uchiha Obito looked at Aomi's gentle smile, as if seeing him in a new light.

Why?

Why did I have such hostility towards Aomi before...

When he recalled Zetsu's words—"What did Aomi ever do to you? Isn't it all for Nohara Rin?"

A deep sense of confusion and guilt welled up in Uchiha Obito's heart.

He increasingly felt that Zetsu's heartbreak was justified; he had truly hurt the heart that loved him deeply!

When Uchiha Obito was diligently training, Uchiha Setsuna encouraged him with the slogan "Take back everything." Back then, he was quite enthusiastic about it, and even after Zetsu's appearance, Uchiha Obito would occasionally chant this phrase.

The shrewd Zetsu seized this opportunity, and today, with a series of moves, knocked Uchiha Obito out cold. Even now, he was still dazed—

"Uchiha Obito, I understand, your most cherished thing is that Nohara Rin, right? I'll go die for you now, so you can go fight for her. I shouldn't have saved you that day!"

"No, saving you was of my own volition, it has nothing to do with you!"

"But you're such an ungrateful bastard, why would you let someone save me again?

"Was it just to have me hear your resolve to win back Nohara Rin?!"

Zetsu's words echoed in his mind, and Aomi's gentle and calm smile seemed to validate this logic, causing Uchiha Obito to burst into tears:

"Aomi, I made a mistake, I've been thrown out by Rin!"

"What should I do, Aomi? I know you're popular with girls, and you get along well with everyone. I've heard from people in the clan that even the village leaders like you!"

"I'm begging you Aomi, help me out!"

Uchiha Obito cried helplessly, feeling truly wretched!

With his romantic intelligence and bumbling ways, Uchiha Obito racked his brain yet couldn't imagine how to rectify his mistake—it was like a dead-end...

Could it be that he was going to lose Uchiha Rin like this?

Would he be able to return to that warm home?

The Sharingan appeared in Uchiha Obito's eyes, the dark Tomoe began to spin...

Aomi was truly shocked!

Is this the Uchiha Clan's love-struck brain?

Aomi had to admit, at this moment his curiosity about Uchiha Rin reached its peak...

As the most popular male broadcaster in the Ninja World, Aomi seemed to have encountered a formidable colleague today?

No way, he had to see the tricks up its sleeve, Uchiha Aomi was the Ninja World's number one broadcaster after all...

"Obito, don't worry, there will always be a solution to every problem…"

Aomi patted Uchiha Obito's back gently and said, "Start from the beginning, let's hear your story first. Since things seem difficult, we need to be even more cautious."

"You and her dispute is like an illness; as a doctor, I must first understand the cause."

"Although I can't guarantee to offer any useful advice, I will try my best."

Uchiha Obito nodded repeatedly, his gaze full of gratitude.

Yes, if Aomi could even save Rin's life, surely he could solve this matter if Aomi helped him, right?

This person Aomi is just too amazing…

Uchiha Obito resisted the urge to slap himself, and following Aomi's instructions, began recounting the story of Uchiha Rin and him.

"You know what happened that day, I was eating in the shop, and Rin blocked that strike to save me."

"But I misspoke."

"At that time, I really didn't recognize her, didn't know why I mistook her for Nohara Rin. Later I coaxed her for a long time before she forgave me, and during our time together, I found she wasn't really a brave girl, not talented, quite weak, but on that day she was so decisive for my sake…"

As Uchiha Obito spoke, a happy smile appeared on his lips.

Aomi's eyes twinkled; he already sensed a pattern in the story.

Even Senju Tobirama perked up his ears, listening intently.

There wasn't much to do while staying in Aomi's body, and watching a love-struck Uchiha make a fool of himself was a trivial amusement.

"Rin, she truly is a gentle and beautiful girl, she would silently accompany me while I trained, though she would scold me for being untidy, she would wash my clothes, and cook delicious meals, putting on airs and saying it was just convenient…"

Uchiha Obito closed his eyes, seemingly trying hard to recall the details:

"Later, she asked me if I could only be good to her for the rest of my life, if I agreed, she would promise to be good to only me, and I was so happy that I instantly agreed!"

"But from then on, I kept upsetting her, I know it's all my fault, but she forgave me later as well."

"But today I accidentally said something nonsensical, she said she never wanted to see me again and told me to get lost. I'm worried she might do something irrational, so I had to leave for now…"
