But when he got to the place where he fought, he only saw the Leaf Village ninja's cold body.
"He was killed..." Kaoru looked at the Leaf Village ninja's body on the ground, thinking.
"I didn't expect you to be this strong..." A cold voice said behind Kaoru.
"....." Kaoru didn't say anything, frowning and turning around.
It was another Genin from the Hidden Mist Village, the one with Kage-level strength: Kuro.
"Who are you?" Kaoru asked.
"I'm just a Hidden Mist Village Genin, my name isn't important. I happened to see you fighting that Leaf Village ninja. That giant sword that fell from the sky was terrifying..."
Uchiha Obito said slowly, still shocked by the scene.
"Hidden Mist Village Genin?" Kaoru smiled.
"Don't joke around. I've never seen a Genin with Kage-level strength. You were controlling those two Leaf Village ninjas with genjutsu, right? You were using them to test my strength."
"Haha, you saw through me," Uchiha Obito said, scratching his head. "But we're both the same. Your strength is far beyond a Genin too, right?"
Kaoru looked at him, thinking about who he was.
The Hidden Mist Village was ruled by the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura.
According to the Fifth Mizukage, Mei Terumī, the Hidden Mist Village was isolated and had no diplomacy, called the "Village of the Bloody Mist," a dark period.
There weren't many Kage-level fighters in the Hidden Mist Village at this time.
Besides the Fourth Mizukage, there might be Kisame, but he was probably already in the Akatsuki. Wait, if we're talking about the Akatsuki...
Kaoru knew who he was. The Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, was controlled by Uchiha Obito's Sharingan for a long time. He was just a puppet. So... this guy was Uchiha Obito!
"No wonder he's here to watch me. He's still thinking about my strength since the massacre..." Kaoru thought.
"I'd say your strength comes from your red eyes," Uchiha Obito said coldly.
"Red eyes?" Kaoru laughed. "Why pretend you don't know? Don't you have red eyes too?"
"You..." Uchiha Obito's eyes showed surprise. His disguise was discovered by a kid!
"This is our second meeting," Kaoru said, his smile turning cold. "The first time was when you helped Uchiha Itachi massacre the clan. You wanted to kill me then..."
"I can kill you now," Uchiha Obito said, narrowing his eyes. The ninjas from the Leaf Village and the Hidden Mist Village didn't see through his identity, but a kid did. He was annoyed.
"Why do we have to fight?" Kaoru smiled. "Even if you want to kill me, I guarantee you can't do it quickly."
"The Leaf Village ninjas will be here soon because of what happened in the Forest of Death. Fighting won't be good for either of us," Kaoru continued to smile.
"Hmph! You're arrogant," Uchiha Obito snorted. He didn't plan to fight because he had some questions.
"I'm curious. You've been hiding your strength in the Leaf Village. And you know that I and Uchiha Itachi massacred the Uchiha clan, but you didn't report it to the Hokage. Why?"
Uchiha Obito asked. That was his question.
"Do you want me to do that?" Kaoru asked, his face unchanged.
"Letting the Leaf Village notice you so early wouldn't be good for you, right?"
"So, you're helping me?" Uchiha Obito raised his eyebrows and asked.
"I'm not just helping you, I'm helping myself," Kaoru smiled.
"Helping yourself?" Uchiha Obito was confused.
"That's right," Kaoru nodded. "I always leave myself a way out. I'm helping you now because one day, I might leave the Leaf Village like Uchiha Itachi. That's when you'll repay me. I don't want to leave the Leaf Village without a place to go."
"Interesting..." Uchiha Obito's eyes lit up. If the Akatsuki had this kid's power, they would be stronger. But why would this kid leave the Leaf Village?
"Why do you want to leave the Leaf Village?" Uchiha Obito asked.
"Because I know the truth about the Uchiha massacre. I can see the Leaf Village's leaders for who they are," Kaoru said. "The Leaf Village's leaders planned the whole thing, right?"
"What?! How could you know?" Uchiha Obito shouted in surprise. Only Danzo, the Third Hokage, Uchiha Itachi, and he knew about this. How could this Uchiha kid...?
"How do you know the truth about the massacre? You're just a kid with no connections in the Leaf Village. How could you know such a secret!" Uchiha Obito asked quickly.
"You don't need to know," Kaoru replied. He wouldn't understand anyway. I just want to tell you why I might leave the village.
I don't want to end up like the Uchiha clan. I'm not like Uchiha Itachi. He cared about the Leaf Village, but I only care about myself. I don't fight for empty things.
"You're right. The Will of Fire is bullshit," Uchiha Obito said coldly, thinking about the past.
He thought about the Will of Fire that the Third Hokage told them, and the scene of Rin being killed by Kakashi.
"Good," Uchiha Obito nodded after a moment. "I understand what you mean. If you want to leave the Leaf Village, you're welcome to join me. But before that, I want you to agree to one condition."
"What condition?" Kaoru asked, frowning.
"Tell me everything you know about the Leaf Village," Uchiha Obito said. "I'm not targeting the Leaf Village right now, but getting their information would be useful."
"Tell you information? You mean be your spy?" Kaoru asked after a few seconds.
"That's right," Uchiha Obito nodded. "Of course, you don't have to do it. I won't force you. Even if you don't, I won't blame you. If you want to betray the Leaf Village, you're still welcome here."
"Be Uchiha Obito's spy..." Kaoru thought about the pros and cons. In the original story, the Leaf Village was peaceful, except for Orochimaru's invasion.
There shouldn't be any important information, and he wouldn't have to put in too much effort...
"Okay, I agree! It's not a big deal," Kaoru replied.
"Your decision is wise," Uchiha Obito finally smiled. "You're willing to do this, but you don't seem interested in my identity. You didn't even ask who I am."
"Then I'll ask now. Who are you?" Kaoru asked. He knew that this guy was Uchiha Obito, but he was still pretending to be Uchiha Madara. Kaoru knew what Uchiha Obito would say.
"I'm Uchiha Madara. You should have heard of that name," Uchiha Obito said.
"Heh, I knew it." Kaoru smiled coldly and acted surprised.
"Impossible! Uchiha Madara was killed by the First Hokage at the Valley of the End. How could you be...?"
"I didn't die in that battle," Uchiha Obito replied. I won't tell you why I didn't die. It's a secret. You just need to know my identity.
My plan will be revealed when you join my organization. Soon, not just the Leaf Village, but the whole world will be at our feet.
