Chapter 35 Stupidity Beats Expert
As Shiba Kiyokawa used the ninjutsu he acquired through the trade to consolidate his position and cultivate his own crew.
Far away in the Land of Fire, Uchiha Shisui immediately handed over the information he had obtained from the transaction to clan leader Fugaku.
Upon hearing the news, Fugaku pondered in his study all night but still couldn't make a decision.
Fugaku lacked decisiveness his entire life; otherwise, he wouldn't have allowed the Uchiha clan to continue its internal strife for the past few years and into the years to come.
He realized the destructive power of this intelligence, but he lacked the courage to directly intervene in the power struggle among Konoha's high-ranking officials, leaving him hesitant and indecisive.
But this world is sometimes full of drama.
Fugaku lacked the courage to break with convention, but he did have some headstrong ideas.
On this day, Obito and Rin returned to the village after finishing their mission and came to visit Kakashi.
Kakashi was supposedly on vacation during this period, but in reality, he was under house arrest in the village, awaiting trial.
Lin's eyes reddened as soon as they met.
"Kakashi, you've lost so much weight. I'm so sorry, so incredibly sorry! If I hadn't been caught back then, none of this would have happened."
Kakashi shook his head, his reply surprisingly more humane than before.
"It's not your fault, Lin. This was my own choice."
Obito was extremely surprised.
This was the first time in over three years that Kakashi had treated them with such gentleness.
Her gentleness made Obito uncomfortable.
"Kakashi, you..."
Kakashi then turned to Obito and said, "Obito, I'm sorry for saying those things about you before."
I've figured it out now. You were right. If a ninja who can't complete a mission is trash, then someone who abandons their comrades is even worse than trash.
At that moment, Obito was deeply shocked and even screamed and jumped up.
"Ah! You! You! You're really Kakashi? You're not someone using a transformation jutsu to impersonate him, are you?"
Rin gently patted him. "Obito, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Faced with his surprised questioning, Kakashi did not speak, but simply lowered his head, his eyes dark and unfathomable, as if he were speaking to Obito, or questioning himself.
"You clearly understand this principle, so why am I still confused?"
Why didn't I stand firmly by my father's side and support him back then?
Kakashi spoke the last sentence very softly, and Obito didn't hear it.
The first half of what he heard made Obito feel both smug and heartbroken.
Kakashi, who was so arrogant, finally admitted that he was no match for him!
But I can't help feeling heartbroken that Kakashi has become like this.
"Cheer up, Kakashi! You're a genius! You can only lose to an even greater genius like me! What makes you look like this?! How have you become even more troublesome than before?"
Obito grabbed Kakashi by the collar and shook him violently.
However, it could never bring back the light from the empty, dead fish's eyes.
After leaving Kakashi's house, Obito Uchiha angrily kept punching the air.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! How did this happen? Kakashi, that guy, he's never giving me a moment's peace!"
Lin smiled gently beside him, seeing right through his arrogance.
"Although Obito always complains, he actually cares a lot about Kakashi."
"Stop joking! Who cares about that arrogant guy?! I'd love for him to be completely crushed so I can beat him quickly!"
Obito uttered words that didn't reflect his true feelings, yet the anxiety on his face was so obvious.
Lin smiled but didn't expose her.
After returning to his clan, Obito overheard that news by chance—
"What?! The person who seduced Kakashi is from the Shimura family? And the elder who's going to put Kakashi on trial right now is from the same family?"
At that moment, the gears of fate began to turn because of a small accident.
Obito dared to say what Fugaku dared not say and spread what he dared not spread!
Fugaku dared not intervene in the high-level war, Obito... well, Obito had no idea about high-level battles at all; he only had Kakashi in his eyes.
Obito then acted swiftly, immediately targeting the strange man in the green bodysuit who was running laps around the village.
"Kai, Kakashi is in danger! Someone wants to harm him, and the trial he's about to face is unjust! Will you help me save him?"
"certainly!"
Kai agreed without hesitation, his teeth gleaming white in the sunlight.
"Saving my best friend from a crisis is the very meaning of youth! Oh! Obito-kun, my youth is about to ignite!"
And so the two hotheaded kids hit it off and began running around trying to save Kakashi.
In the blink of an eye, all the major ninja clans of Konoha received the news—
The Shimura clan framed Kakashi, and it turns out that the Shimura clan also manipulated Kakashi!
At the Nara residence, the head of the Nara family looked at his son, Shikaku, with a bewildered expression. "Where did you get this information from?"
Why did none of Konoha's official external intelligence agencies receive any news, while their own son got to eat the gossip first?
Is it in this river?
Shikaku also had droopy eyelids and spread his hands with a helpless expression. "Dad, you might not believe it, but I heard this from a group of kids from the ninja academy."
Since Obito and his group couldn't get in touch with important figures, they simply took the mass line approach, starting by spreading the word among their peers and even younger children.
At that moment, the head of the Nara family fell into deep thought.
Intelligent people often find it difficult to predict the behavior of hot-blooded fools.
In that instant, the current head of the Nara family thought of many things and speculated on countless possibilities, but he still couldn't figure out what kind of thoughts this signal reflected from the higher-ups.
For the first time, the head of the Nara family felt his mind was not working properly, so he grabbed his son who was trying to escape without hesitation.
"Shikaku, come back here! Don't even think about sneaking off to slack off. Help me figure out what's going on!"
Nara Shikaku looked utterly dejected.
As the saying goes, fools can defeat experts. That night, the father and son of the Nara family discussed it all night but couldn't figure it out.
They all thought the same thing: Danzo and the Shimura family's reputations are going to be ruined again!
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The Jonin meeting to discuss Kakashi's judgment was held as scheduled.
On this day, Danzang arrived at the meeting room full of confidence, walking briskly and with a confident stride.
In his opinion, the advantage is in my hands!
So much so that when he looked at the conference room in front of him, he seemed to feel a vibrant atmosphere of life and everything thriving!
The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, was the last to enter the room. He immediately put down his pipe and announced, "Bring Kakashi up."
The Anbu then led Kakashi into the conference room.
This matter has dragged on for a long time, and there is no need to repeatedly read out the crimes, so Hiruzen Sarutobi announced it directly.
"Then let's vote. Raise your hand if you agree that Kakashi is innocent, and don't raise your hand if you disagree."
Danzo, standing to the side, looked smug.
He had even figured out how to handle Minato Namikaze if he came to him for help, how to make demands, and how to vent his anger!
To his utter surprise—
After a brief silence and pause, more and more Jonin and ninja clan representatives raised their hands in the conference room.
Even the way people looked at Danzo carried a certain mockery, disgust, and contempt.
Danzo was dumbfounded.
Why is that?!
Wasn't Kakashi the one who harmed his comrades? What's with all that staring at me?!
