Naruto Dream Fulfillment Master

Seeing this, Obito curled his lip, a disdainful expression flashing across his face: "Hmph, here we go again, getting all smug and showing off..."

Despite saying that, he couldn't help but cast a curious glance toward the open space.

Kakashi led Yahiko to a wooden dummy and said seriously, "That move last time was actually inspired by lightning in nature."

"Lightning?!" Yahiko was taken aback upon hearing this.

Kakashi nodded and casually drew the short sword from his back.

He quickly formed hand seals, and a surge of lightning-attribute chakra wrapped around the short blade in his hand, emitting a faint sizzling sound.

After doing all that, Kakashi asked casually, "Yahiko, have you ever been struck by lightning?"

Yahiko was immediately stunned: "Th-there's no such thing..."

Kakashi's lips curled slightly beneath his mask, a mischievous glint in his eyes: "Oh? That's a real shame. Remember this—speed is power!"

Before he finished speaking, he shot forward with the force of a thunderbolt, like an arrow released from a bow!

Obito only saw a flash of blue light before his eyes, and the next second, a muffled thud was heard, and the heavy wooden dummy in front of him was cut in half at the waist!

The cross-section of the broken wooden stake was charred black and still emitting wisps of smoke, clearly a sign of being instantly carbonized by high temperatures.

"Bravo!!" A cheer rang out from the side.

It turned out that Kakashi's attack had caused quite a stir, attracting many Konoha ninjas to stop and watch.

Yahiko's eyes lit up, and he couldn't close his mouth for a long time: "Wow, amazing... It's really like being struck by lightning!"

"That's so cool, Kakashi!" came an excited cheer from the other side.

Obito looked over and saw two girls standing next to him.

One of the girls, with tea-colored hair, purple eyes, and a beautiful face, clenched her fists in front of her chest, staring at Kakashi in the arena with an expression of adoration, her cheeks flushed with excitement.

Another blue-haired girl stood beside her, her expression much calmer and more elegant, but her eyes held a clear sense of admiration as she looked at Kakashi.

The two girls were none other than Nohara Rin and Konan, who were on the same team.

"Hmph! What's so great about it?"

Obito glanced at Kakashi, who was being praised and surrounded by a crowd in the distance, and muttered something under his breath, feeling a pang of jealousy.

That feeling of resentment and frustration welled up inside him again.

However, at the same time, his gaze became increasingly resolute.

This scene did not discourage him; instead, it strengthened his resolve to hold onto that strong thought.

He was determined to prove that he would never lose to Kakashi!

Obito clenched his fists secretly, quietly circled around to Rin who was still cheering, and asked in a low voice, "Rin, did Minato-sensei assign us any tasks today?"

"A mission?" Lin looked at him strangely, then shook her head and said, "No. Teacher Minato said this morning that everyone should rest well today and there are no new missions planned."

"That's it."

Upon hearing this, Obito nodded silently, a weight lifted from his heart.

Great! With no tasks to distract me, I can now focus on implementing my plans!

Obito began to secretly plot.

They are currently located at the Tenchi Bridge, which marks the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Grass. Not far to the north is the Kannabi Bridge.

Thinking of this, Obito felt a surge of excitement.

That's right, he had already made up his mind to take advantage of this opportunity to enter the dream world and personally go to find Uchiha Madara!

Don't miss out.

Thinking of this, he whispered to Rin, "Um... Rin, I want to go for a walk by myself. If Kakashi or Minato asks, please ask for leave for me."

Lin paused for a moment, a look of worry flashing across her pretty face: "Go out now? But this is a war zone... There are many Iwagakure and Kirigakure ninja lying in ambush near the Land of Grass. It will be very dangerous for you to run out alone!"

Hearing the concern in Rin's voice, Obito felt a warmth in his heart, and the gloom he had felt earlier because of Kakashi's stealing the spotlight vanished.

[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Obito have been detected! Emotional value +500!]

He was almost overjoyed: Sure enough, Lin cares about me the most!

I have always been a part of her heart!

However, despite his inner joy, Obito maintained a calm demeanor on the surface.

He coughed lightly and tried to sound reliable as he said, "Hehe, don't worry, Lin! I won't go too far. I'll just wander around the neighborhood and stretch my muscles."

Lin was still a little worried and hesitated, saying, "How about... we call Kakashi and the three of us go together? It'll be safer if the three of us go together."

"No need!" Obito quickly waved his hand in refusal. "I just want to be alone and think about things. I'll be back soon."

He forced what he thought was a very sunny smile at Lin, trying to dispel the girl's concerns.

Lin pursed her lips and stared at him for two seconds before finally nodding helplessly: "...Okay. Then you must be careful."

"Hehe, don't worry!" Obito was overjoyed upon hearing this, and his smile widened.

He gave Lin a thumbs up, "I promise!"

After receiving Rin's permission, Obito immediately turned around and walked briskly out of the camp.

He walked quickly and soon reached the edge of the camp.

As he walked through the fenced exit, Obito inexplicably glanced back.

In the distance, on an open space, Lin was still standing in the same spot, looking in his direction.

When their eyes met from afar, Lin pursed her lips and waved, signaling him to be careful and come back soon.

Obito felt a warmth in his heart, nodded, and raised his hand to wave at her.

Immediately, he withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath, and his eyes burned with fierce fighting spirit.

Although he longed to stay with Lin, he had to leave.

In order to be able to openly and legitimately stay by her side one day, he must become stronger than Kakashi!

"Wait for me, Rin," Obito thought to himself, then stepped out of the camp gate without hesitation and leaped into the northern forest.

……

in the audience.

Nagato frowned slightly upon seeing this, feeling somewhat disappointed.

On the screen, Obito left without warning, and the scene instantly shifted away from the camp.

He had originally hoped to see more of Yahiko through the dream, but before long, Obito ran away.

Kakashi stared at the screen, full of doubt.

He didn't expect that Obito would leave the team's camp alone after entering the dream.

What...is this guy trying to do?

Keep in mind, this is still wartime, it's too risky for him to run away alone!

Jiraiya's attention was not on Obito.

He turned his head slightly, his peripheral vision fixed on the lump of black mud not far away.

He had tried to communicate with it several more times, but received no response, which made him secretly more vigilant.

This behavior is suspicious.

Jiraiya's intuition told him that this black mud was probably not simple.

At this moment, Kuroko seemed to be staying obediently in the corner of the seat, without making any further moves, but Jiraiya still dared not let his guard down.

He pretended to be focused on watching the screen, but in reality, he kept a sliver of his attention on the movements of the black mud.

And that pool of black mud—

Black Zetsu, of course, did not ignore the probing glances that Jiraiya occasionally cast at him.

However, he was perfectly calm at the moment and did not reveal the slightest flaw.

Although Black Zetsu was inexplicably and forcibly pulled into this strange space, he was not stupid.

Thanks to the White Zetsu network that spans the entire ninja world, he has a considerable understanding of these well-known ninjas.

He knew that both Kakashi and Jiraiya were among the most cunning and shrewd people.

These two aren't like Obito; they're not so easily fooled.

It would be unwise to strike up a conversation with them without careful consideration.

Therefore, from the moment Black Zetsu appeared, he decided to simply pretend to be a person without intelligence.

Since his appearance is already advantageous, looking like a brainless monster, he can continue to disguise himself as a "harmless" unconscious creature.

He refused to believe that these two guys, no matter how clever, could possibly get entangled with a lump of mud to the end.

As expected, after Kakashi and Jiraiya realized they couldn't do anything to him in a short time, they temporarily shifted their attention away from him.

Seeing this, Black Zetsu couldn't help but sneer inwardly: Foolish humans...

However, the strangeness and uncertainty of the environment made Black Zetsu dare not be careless in the slightest.

He slowly turned his eyes, scanning the entire dark hall.

When his gaze swept across the huge screen, the scene displayed on it gave him a jolt.

On the screen, Obito was seen walking alone through a dense forest, his steps quick as he sped off in a certain direction.

"The forests of the Land of Grass..." Black Zetsu narrowed his eyes, a large amount of information flashing through his mind in an instant.

Recently, Obito has been behaving quite strangely in real life, which made his "old friend" vaguely sense that something was wrong.

He seemed normal during the day, but at night, he became unusually sensitive, especially to the word "sleep".

Black Zetsu had been lurking in the ninja world for a thousand years and had seen all sorts of storms, but he still couldn't figure out the strange things that had happened to Obito recently.

Now, as he sees Obito's figure on the screen and realizes that he has been pulled into this "movie-watching" venue by strange means, the clues finally connect in his mind.

Black Zetsu's eyes flickered slightly, and a bold conjecture popped into his mind.

Obito's recent strange changes are probably due to this place, right?
