That Yugao child, what a shame…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An uncle nearby chimed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two kids had grown up under the watchful eyes of the neighborhood. Now, one was gone, and the other...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing their voices, Hayate Gekkō walked home with a blank face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was now a full-fledged shinobi, but on missions, he rarely spoke and never smiled. His teammates had dubbed him the \"cold-faced man.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arriving home, he didn't go inside right away. Instead, he stood quietly, gazing at the house diagonally across the street, doors and windows sealed shut.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night over a year ago, when the Nine-Tails stormed the village, everyone either panicked or ran for cover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he... he had rushed into that house first, hoping to see her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the figure he longed for wasn't there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After realizing it, he sprinted to the training ground where they had often met.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he never made it. A passing ninja forcibly dragged him to safety.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn't seen her since.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The villagers told him she'd been training that night, and the area was one of the hardest hit. Her body was never found. No bones left. Just gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Plenty of people had been smashed into paste by the Nine-Tails. Nothing recognizable remained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he didn't believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't want to believe it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If… if I hadn't left early… if I had taken her with me that night…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hayate Gekkō clenched his fists. His face was full of silent remorse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in the Land of Water, Base 2's training ground\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the training ground\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dance of the Three Days and Moon!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Three purple blurs... left, right, and overhead slashed toward Obito in perfect sync.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito shifted once, twice... effortlessly dodging the side attacks. Then he raised his sword and casually slashed horizontally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His blade met Yugao's in mid-air, sending her flying back with just one swing..\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She twisted and recovered gracefully, landing with a quick step. Then, chakra flared\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Vacuum Sword!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp arc of wind chakra shot toward Obito.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same moment, as it soared toward him, Yugao sheathed her sword, dropped into a low stance, then vanished in a blur of movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito raised his sword and casually cleaved through the chakra slash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just as the energy slash dispersed, before his swing even finished, Yugao appeared at point-blank range, blade aimed right at his throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Killing Slash!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's eyes lit up a bit at the angle and timing pretty slick. So he let it happen. The blade sliced through… air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It passed harmlessly through his neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hoh. Not bad. Ordinary Jonin would have a hard time dodging that.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yugao sheathed her sword slowly, then gave a small, smug smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thanks to your brutal training, of course. Much appreciated~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Over a year of intense training... Yugao Uzuki had now mastered Iron Country swordsmanship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Absorbed most of the Konoha-ryū techniques, and become proficient in shadow clones, shunshin, genjutsu, and the three basic nature transformations: wind, water, and fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Obito had noticed something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after absorbing a Red item, her chakra pool was still on the low side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well… to be fair, most shinobi in this world hit the same wall: chakra and stamina.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>High-level ninjutsu? Pointless if your battery runs out after two casts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That included Yugao too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sure, she was still physically growing, so there was some room to expand her chakra pool but Obito estimated she'd probably cap out around elite Jonin level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which was... not good enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not for his goals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The plan was Kage level, not \"almost there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Should he keep feeding her Red items from generic ninja to build her base stats?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or just hand her one with a Kekkei Genkai and fast-track the whole thing?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito narrowed his eyes slightly and tapped his chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hashirama cells. Maybe those could be fused into a Red item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still had a few leftover from Madara's stash… though most of that was already spent on growing White Zetsu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might need to pay a visit to a certain mad scientist snake freak and get some supplies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Orochimaru, huh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fell deep into thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then... wave wave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito blinked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A hand was suddenly waving right in front of his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He turned his head and glared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh? What are you doing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yugao quickly pulled her hand back and huffed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph! Who told you to just zone out all of a sudden?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Well, she had been trying to lift his mask and see his face, but chickened out last second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not that she'd admit it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever. At this point, whether he was Madara or Obito or whatever, didn't matter much anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Almost two years together now… and those memories of Konoha and the boy next door were starting to fade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being beside this annoying masked man just felt more and more natural.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch. I was thinking about important stuff.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito rolled his eyes and turned away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anyway, training's over. Let's go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the base, on the grassy clearing\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tobi! Tobi! Look!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Little Karin, now nearly two years old, waved a piece of paper excitedly... it was covered in wild crayon doodles.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph! Karin-chan, you're still too young.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behold... my masterpiece!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>White Zetsu (aka Tobi) popped up beside her, smug as hell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He held up his drawing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A crude, majestic, child-like sketch of…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Poop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A steaming pile of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drawn with pride.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>--------------------------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Support me at patreon.com\u002FArthorain and read upto 50 Advanced Chapters and Exclusive R-18 Content!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>--------------------------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Update schedule: 7 chapters\u002Fweek\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every 300 power stones = 1 Extra Chapter\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By voting with [power stones], you can easily get double the number of chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>",1018,"2026-06-05T20:19:16.842Z",1,"novelbin.me","02f232684bfa24417b473712e0ae5760e443c4c99575b0af1026e562e8706b47","naruto-reborn-as-uchiha-obito-chapter-42","naruto-reborn-as-uchiha-obito-chapter-40",238,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-reborn-as-uchiha-obito-cover.jpg"]
