Naruto: I, Uchiha Obito, will never be a slave

"What...what is this...?"

Xiangyue was dumbfounded when she saw the pale, limp body next to her, swinging from side to side like a cloud.

"This is the shadow clone you created. It was caused by poor chakra control."

Seeing Xiangyue's shadow clone, Obito was stunned for a moment, and then spoke.

Obito actually didn't expect to see this scene.

In his memory, Uzumaki Naruto seemed to have mastered the art of multiple shadow clones after just one glance at the scroll.

Xiangyue, who is also from the Uzumaki clan, should have a very simple shadow clone technique, so she did not expect that Xiangyue would fail.

However, although Obito was slightly disappointed, he soon felt relieved.

The more chakra you have, the more effective your shadow clone will be.

But this does not mean that the more chakra you have, the easier it is to master the shadow clone technique.

The art of shadow clone is not exclusive to the Uzumaki clan.

Seeing Xiangyue's shadow clone, Obito recalled his memory of practicing shadow clones in the past.

At that time, he had not yet opened the Sharingan, but the chakra in his body was not less than that of his peers.

In order to catch up with Kakashi, he gave himself special training in the woods and secretly practiced the shadow clone technique alone.

During this period, there were quite a few shadow clones that were divided into idiots, sluggish, and limp.

...........

Xiangyue looked at Obito's dazed eyes, then looked at the silly shadow clone next to her, but did not dare to say anything.

He created an idiot shadow clone, which seemed to disappoint Grandpa Madara a little.

Isn't he not going to teach himself this trick...

Xiangyue thought anxiously.

It wasn't until a moment later that she noticed Obito's eyes on her.

The disappointment in his eyes became gentle and patient.

Xiangyue was a little curious, wondering what wonderful things her Grandpa Madara was thinking about just now, which made his eyes change like this.

Before Xiangyue could speak, Obito's indifferent voice sounded first:

"Although it failed, I was able to release it the first time and performed very well. If you practice more, I believe you will master this move soon."

Xiangyue was a little stunned.

Although Obito's voice was cold and emotionless, his words were indeed encouraging.

This made Xiangyue think Obito was weird, but also found him a little cute.

The words of encouragement just now were said intentionally by Grandpa Madara, otherwise it wouldn't have sounded so awkward.

I didn't expect him to have such a gentle and lovely side.

Xiangyue nodded and said nothing.

It's just that the smile in his heart can't help but appear on his face, making the whole person look more positive.

Next, Xiangyue tried the shadow clone technique again.

Under Obito's constant guidance, the shadow clones created by Xiangyue became more and more similar.

As Obito said, Xiangyue's performance has been quite good.

After a day of practice, Xiangyue was able to create a shadow clone that behaved normally.

But due to poor chakra control, the shadow clone persisted for a few seconds before dissipating.

Time flies.

Half a month has passed since Obito sneaked into Konoha and left last time.

During this period, Black and White Zetsu brought surrounding news to Obito many times.

Because of the changes in Konoha Village, Danzo in the Country of Rain has become much more stable, and the conflicts between various forces in the Country of Rain have also eased a lot.

As for Lin, Obito has sent A Fei's powerful spore clone to carefully monitor the outside of Konoha, but there is currently no useful information.

During this period of time, Obito's eye power has long been restored, and he has completely mastered the Sharingan's exclusive Ninjutsu to block perception.

After Obito's test on Xiangyue, if Obito did not use chakra, it would be impossible for Xiangyue to feel Obito's chakra from a distance of 10 meters.

As for ninjutsu, Obito also mastered some of the five chakra-based ninjutsu after learning from the shadow clone in the Kamui space.

As for Xiangyue, she has already mastered treading water and trees.

I have also learned the physical skills and shuriken skills well. I can at least hit birds and beasts flying in the sky by throwing shurikens from 800 meters away - it is still somewhat rewarding.

As for the only ninjutsu she mastered, the Shadow Clone Jutsu, under Obito's guidance, it has now reached the point where it can be used.

At present, Xiangyue cannot distribute chakra in half. Every time she releases the shadow clone technique, she will distribute the chakra of the sixth layer of the main body.

In this case, she can create up to five shadow clones.

In other words, if Xiangyue learns the art of multiple shadow clones, with her current amount of chakra, she can create up to nearly 100 shadow clones at one time.

Although it is not as many as Naruto's thousands in the original work, it is still quite terrifying.

However, Xiangyue's training time is still short after all. If she persists in training and extracts chakra, she may be able to create more clones in the future.

On the last night, it was still around the campfire.

But this time Obito no longer told Xiangyue interesting things about the ninja world as usual, but told Xiangyue some questions about the ninjutsu scroll.

Xiangyue had already mastered the method of viewing ninjutsu scrolls, and she had also briefly read some of the scrolls Obito had given her before.

It's just that she has been busy practicing these days, and she doesn't understand the details of the ninjutsu scrolls, nor does she practice the ninjutsus on the scrolls.

Listening to Obito's explanation, Xiangyue was a little absent-minded, with a trace of sadness on her face.

She clearly felt that Grandpa Madara spoke much faster today.

Reminiscing that Obito said he would teach her for half a month, now half a month has passed, Xiangyue probably knew that Grandpa Madara was leaving.

Xiangyue secretly looked at the masked figure next to her several times and opened her mouth, but in the end she still didn't ask.

After Obito finished telling a question that Kozuki had asked before, Obito closed the scroll.

"You're not in a good state today, so that's it for today."

Obito naturally noticed Xiangyue's abnormality, but he didn't ask any more questions and stood up to leave.

And A Fei next to him also stood up and walked towards Obito.

Seeing Obito and Fei's actions, Xiangyue quickly reacted.

"Grandpa Madara, Ah Fei, wait...wait a moment."

Obito and Fei turned their heads and looked at Xiangyue.

To their surprise, Xiangyue bowed deeply to them, and the tips of her red hair fell to her chest with her movements.

"Grandpa Madara, Ah Fei, I'm very...very...I..."

Xiangyue's voice was very sincere, but as soon as she called the two of them, she couldn't help but choked up.

Obito understood Xiangyue's meaning in an instant, knowing that Xiangyue had guessed that he was leaving today.

That's right, otherwise, A Fei wouldn't have left with him.

Seeing Xiangyue choked and unable to speak, Obito's eyes flashed and he said in a low and serious tone:

"Do you remember what I told you before?"

Hearing Obito's words, Xiangyue felt so confused that she didn't know what she was talking about and sobered up a little.

“You never know who your real enemy is until the end of the road appears.

Whether it’s someone who has helped you before, or someone close to them.

In this ninja world, you cannot see the reality just by looking with your eyes and heart.

Only through constant thinking and doubt can we get a glimpse of the reality beneath the surface. "

Hearing Obito's words, Xiangyue's mind instantly resounded with some words that Obito told her that she must keep in mind when he was preparing to teach her.

"Who is the person you really trust, and who is the real enemy hidden next to you!"

"Those who help you are not necessarily your teammates. Those who are against you are not necessarily your enemies!"

What do these words mean?

Xiangyue raised her tear-stained cheek and found that the two people were no longer in front of her.

The next day, Xiangyue got up and continued her practice as usual.

But this time she was always alone, with neither Obito nor A Fei appearing.

During the break, Xiangyue looked at the place where Obito usually sat high up in a daze.

She knew that Obito and Fei had really left.

The past half month has been like a dream, and I am completely different from before.

In a daze, Xiangyue couldn't help but think of some past events.

Parents' sustenance before they die.

Great moments with those kids.

The death of the voiceless.

And those impressions of practicing under the guidance of Grandpa Madara.

She remembers it clearly.

When Grandpa Madara promised to teach her to become a ninja, she was still a weak and timid girl. Just the look of A Fei scared her.

Huh?

Xiangyue suddenly came back to her senses.

Ah Fei, I was shocked...

That black and white person who occasionally appears next to Grandpa Madara and disappears quickly?

Xiangyue frowned involuntarily.

...........

In an unknown forest somewhere in the Kingdom of Rain.

A wave of time and space slowly rippled in the air.

The next second, Obito's figure appeared from the vortex of time and space.

"Have you been notified yet?" Obito asked calmly.

"We have told it our location through the spores, and it should be here soon."

After A Fei answered, he continued:

"Speaking of which, I've gotten used to playing around with Xiangyue, but it's really hard to be without her all of a sudden."

"Now Xiangyue, I'm afraid she has gotten up and continues practicing. She probably also found out that we have left."

Obito was silent for a while, then said: "She guessed it yesterday, this child is very smart!"

Ah Fei smiled: "It seems you are somewhat used to it!"

"One child at a time. In fact, she is a little older than you!"

Obito smiled.

"Who knows? As long as I put on the mask, she will be my good child, and I will be her Grandpa Madara."

Ah Fei was silent for a while, then spoke again and sighed:

"Yes, she is such a good child, she can still be so pure after experiencing something like that!"

"But Obito, I have never quite understood why you agreed to let her become a ninja."

"Is it just because she is from the Uzumaki clan and has great talents? With her little strength, she can't help us at all."

"If she hadn't become a ninja, she might have been able to get it for a little longer, but now, those ninjas will no longer treat her as an ordinary child."
