Naruto: Naruto's Uchiha girlfriend is too arrogant

Chapter 483 New Life and Death

The cause of it all goes back to an earlier time—Uchiha Yuzu and her only remaining blood relative in the world, whom she regarded as her life, her younger sister Uchiha Satsuki, had that complete and uncompromising break.

Yuzu can still vividly recall Satsuki's cold, burning eyes, burning with anger and determination, and her words that severed all sisterly ties and future possibilities.

"If—you dare to appear before me again..."

"...I will kill you right now."

For those with Uchiha blood flowing through their veins, intense emotions need an outlet—perhaps a lofty ideal, a burning ambition, or a person of paramount importance.

In Uchiha Yu's heart, the number one person without a doubt is her younger sister, Sazuki, whom she has devoted all her protection to.

For an Uchiha, when the hope that was poured into them with all their fervent emotions is not only completely gone, but also turns into an irreconcilable hatred that can never be undone... this is tantamount to the complete collapse of their spiritual world, the most fatal blow to the clan of love.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Shisui hadn't been by her side at the time, forcibly supporting her faltering consciousness, Uchiha Yuzu might have completely lost the will to live and her mind would have collapsed under the immense despair of being utterly rejected and abandoned by her closest relatives.

On the verge of collapse, in order to grasp at the last straw and prevent her heart from being completely swallowed by emptiness and pain, Uchiha Yu made an instinctive choice—she transferred that intense emotion that had nowhere to go and was about to burn her to Shisui, the only person still by her side at the time, with whom she had grown up.

At the same time, a faint glimmer of hope remained amidst the despair. What could she do to make Satsuki change her mind? How could she salvage their seemingly broken relationship?

Amidst the pain of abandonment, the torment of self-doubt, and the dark emotions fueled by an unwavering desire to "win her back," a "rational" idea took shape in her mind.

If... if the Uchiha clan could rise again and become the number one ninja clan in the ninja world once more, would things change? Would Satsuki be able to... regain her appreciation for her older sister's worth?

In her fragile and obsessive mind at the time, the weighty goal of "reviving the Uchiha clan" was naturally linked to Shisui, who was by her side.

So, on that night when emotions overwhelmed her, Uchiha Yuzu, in a humble, desperate, tearful voice, like a drowning person clinging to a piece of driftwood, pleaded with Shisui. She said she didn't know how to go on living, that she needed to grasp something to prove she still had a reason to exist, and incoherently expressed her guilt towards her sister, her desire to make amends, and that vague delusion of "reviving the Uchiha clan"... In the end, all her words and emotions converged into a clear and straightforward request, carrying the implication of self-sacrifice and emotional transference—a request for that kind of relationship.

Shisui's feelings were extremely complicated when faced with such a pomelo.

His feelings for You were particularly complicated. They were childhood playmates who shared similar ideals and troubles. He watched her go from being a sister who took care of her younger sister to gradually taking a radical path, ultimately disappointing him... But the bond of shared memories of growing up together never truly disappeared.

Even if it wasn't pure love, it contained concern, regret, responsibility, and old feelings that couldn't be completely severed.

He couldn't bear to see Youzi like an empty shell, devoid of a soul, wandering aimlessly in the shadows of despair.

He couldn't stand Yu's humble, self-destructive attitude in "begging" for this.

Perhaps... it's also partly because he is, after all, a young man, and when faced with such intense and complex emotional shocks, as well as that plea that was a mixture of vulnerability and temptation, he couldn't completely control himself.

Caught in a web of emotions and impulses, boundaries were broken.

but--

Shisui abruptly pulled himself out of his memories, his fingers unconsciously tightening.

Wow... that fast?!

He quickly calculated the time in his mind. From that chaotic night until now, the medical ninja said it had been about a month... the timeline was almost perfectly aligned!

Could it be... that it happened on the very first time?!

------

"Fourth Hokage, get away from the Jinchuriki immediately. Otherwise, this child will only have one minute left to live."

"Don't you care whether this brat lives or dies?"

"Alright, come out now, Nine-Tails."

"The Uzumaki clan is truly amazing. Even after having their tailed beasts extracted, they don't immediately lose their lives?"

Finally, there was that malicious remark that froze Lin's blood.

"You were once the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, so let this guy kill you."

"Bang--!!!"

With a heavy thud, the enormous nine-tailed claw, controlled by the masked man, slammed down on Kushina's body!

"No……!"

Nohara Rin let out a short, sharp cry, as if she were being choked, finally unable to bear the cruel reality that was far beyond her imagination.

As if burned, she abruptly released her hands, letting the mirror reflecting sin and pain roll to the ground with a "clatter," the light and shadow instantly vanishing.

A pain far more intense and profound than the pain she felt when she died gripped her heart, making it impossible for her to breathe.

Things turned out a million times worse than she had ever imagined!

Obito didn't just fall into depravity, nor was he merely immersed in the grief of losing her. He completely believed in the "Eye of the Moon" illusion woven by Madara Uchiha, and with this belief, he embarked on a path of using any means necessary to achieve his goals.

He wanted to "bring her back" in that illusory world, but in doing so, he committed an unforgivable sin in the real world.

He abandoned the name "Uchiha Obito," donned a mask symbolizing lies and concealment, and walked in the darkness under the name "Uchiha Madara."

The figure in the mirror, both in its actions and the aura it exuded, felt completely unfamiliar to her, utterly different from the sunny yet somewhat clumsy companion she remembered.

Even after witnessing Obito's scheming, manipulation, and even the murder of many innocent people for his own purposes, a faint hope still lingered deep within Rin's heart. She prayed and hoped that in the next frame of the mirror, she would see Obito suddenly awaken to the truth, struggle to climb out of that dark quagmire, and become the Obito she knew again.

But he didn't.

The timeline in the mirror coldly advanced until she witnessed Obito personally participating in the murder of her master's wife, Kushina Uzumaki, which completely shattered her last hope.

Lin couldn't bear to watch any longer. She was afraid she would see more, scenes that would be even more unbearable for her...

She staggered back a small step, her body trembling uncontrollably. One hand unconsciously rose and covered her mouth tightly. Hot tears, beyond her control, silently and surging down her cheeks and dripped onto the grass of the pure land.

This time, the tears were not just for Obito's downfall, but also for those who were hurt and lost their lives because of him; they were tears of helplessness and indignation.

Then, in reality, or rather, in the reality of the Pure Land, she raised her tear-blurred eyes and looked at "Obito," who stood a few steps away, his face as pale as paper, his eyes filled with immense terror, regret, and a desire to escape.

Rin didn't pick up the mirror that revealed everything, nor did she look for the potentially more terrifying aftermath. She simply used all her strength to walk step by step to Obito, whose body was stiff with fear.

Her voice was hoarse and almost out of tune due to the immense emotional impact.

"Obito...you..." She took a deep breath, each word carrying immense weight, "...After that...how much more did you do?"

Looking at Rin's tear-streaked face and the unfathomable sorrow in her eyes, Obito felt as if every inch of his soul was being torn apart.

He almost wanted to use his divine power to completely detach himself from this humiliating scene and escape. But in the end, he didn't move. He lowered his head deeply and, with all his willpower, managed to squeeze out a broken, laborious reply from between his teeth.

"I...I...afterwards...in the heart of Konoha...summoned the Nine-Tails..."

"Then... Master... in order to reseal the Nine-Tails... and protect the village... he... lost his life..."

These words struck Lin's already overburdened heart hard.

"Varied……?!"

The moment Lin heard this answer, everything went black before her eyes. A strong wave of dizziness washed over her, making her almost unable to stand. She swayed and nearly fainted completely.

She didn't know how she managed to steady herself, nor how she was still able to make a sound. She simply asked the most crucial question, the one that terrified her and Obito Uchiha, in a tone filled with endless pain and self-doubt, driven by instinct.

"Obito...did you do that...all because of me? It's...it's my fault, isn't it..."
