He untied the bandage on his body and looked at the thick, long, and ugly scar on his waist in the mirror. Aoba looked very calm.
In fact, the self-healing effect of [Poor Quality Self Healing Body] could easily erase this scar, but he did not do so. Instead, he wanted to use this time to remind himself how dangerous the world was.
Moreover, he just learned from Mikawa that because of the death of Yondaime and the huge loss caused by Kyuubi's attack on the village, Konoha's border was not very peaceful recently, and he had fought many times with Kumogakure Ninja, who came to attack.
Fortunately, it had not immediately evolved into a large-scale war, but it was only a matter of time.
Once Konoha showed weakness, Kumogakure would definitely reveal his sharp fangs!
If not for taking care of him, Mikawa would have already received a mission and left.
Now that he had been discharged from the hospital and had decided on the matter with the Ninja School, Mikawa would also enter the countdown to enter this unfinished war.
In this regard, Aoba did not try to persuade him.
Although this trip was very dangerous, this was the fate of a ninja and could not be avoided.
Therefore, he could only tell Mikawa to be careful and could not help much.
However, the surrounding houses were all affected, and this house of his was lucky to avoid a disaster, which was quite magical.
Just as Aoba was about to give himself another day off and start training again tomorrow, [Eye Of Perception], which was always on standby after he returned, suddenly he noticed a strange life fluctuation in his right rear.
"Who?"
"Hehe, it's much sharper than last time."
After hearing Obito's familiar voice, Aoba turned around expressionlessly and looked straight at him.
After Aoba was discharged from the hospital, Obito, who immediately came to the door, was still dressed in a black robe and a one-eyed mask, but his tone seemed very calm. He did not fly into a rage out of humiliation because his plan failed, and he failed to destroy Konoha.
"After all, I almost died at the hands of that monster Kyuubi. If I were not vigilant, I would not even know how I died." Aoba directly brought this topic over.
After hearing this, Obito first glanced at the ugly scar on his body and then nodded with a rare agreement, "It seems that after this life and death test, you have matured a lot. Not bad."
"Let's get down to business. This time, you took the risk to sneak into Konoha not just to praise me, right?"
"Risk? There is no place in this world that I can't go to. No one can keep me." Obito said. Then, he felt that this kind of boasting was very boring, so he changed the topic and said,
"This time, I returned to Konoha mainly to tell you some things. In addition, you won the bet this time. I was indeed not prepared to completely destroy Konoha. However, I will not make the same mistake again, and Konoha will also be cleared by me!"
Aoba was surprised that Obito would admit his 'mistake'. However, what he cared about was not this, but whether Obito would fulfill his promise.
"In other words, you agreed to my request?"
"Yes, I am also very curious about what kind of surprise you can bring me."
Hearing Obito's words, Aoba felt a lot more at ease. Then, he said, "What do you want to tell me? Do you want to gather information?"
"No, since I have agreed to give you the right to move freely, then what you should do in the future is your business. If I have any needs here, I will contact you in advance. You can choose to accept or not, and everything is based on your own judgment. But when I think the time is ripe, it will also be the day when you leave Konoha….. When you succeed and leave."
Aoba nodded to show that he understood.
To be honest, even he did not expect that Obito would actually trust him so much and even gave him such a large degree of freedom, including some things that he did not want to do, he could completely refuse, which undoubtedly gave him more room to operate.
Moreover, he was someone who wanted to be undercover as a Hokage, and he was not willing to put himself in danger of exposing his identity for a little secret information. It was completely not worth it!
Moreover, there was an expert like White Zetsu who collected information, and he did not need to do such a small thing.
Then he heard Obito continue to say, "Other than that, I will tell you some more information so that you won't make the wrong judgment. Soon, an organization named' Akatsuki 'will appear in Ninja World. I will use this organization to secretly accumulate power and prepare for my next plan."
"You don't need to know too much about the rest. You just need to know that this Akatsuki is not an enemy. If someone doubts your identity or needs to clear some obstacles and it is inconvenient for you to take action yourself, you can leave it to this organization to solve it."
This time, Aoba was sure that Obito really had high hopes for him. Not only did he give him the greatest freedom to move, but he was also willing to use Akatsuki, who had not yet developed, to help him secretly do it!
Who the hell could withstand this!
Moreover, with Akatsuki in front of him, not only was there no need to doubt his strength, there was no need to doubt him at all.
However, why had Obito's attitude changed so much before and after?
Was it just because the plan to destroy Konoha had failed?
He felt that it was not completely correct.
How could Aoba know that Obito had actually been hiding in Konoha for more than half a month? Then, he learned a lot about the inside story after he retreated. He knew that Akatsuki had completely gained the trust of Konoha's higher-ups. There was even Minato and his wife, who had already died, as this guy's 'talisman'.
Therefore, Obito, who originally did not think too highly of Aoba's role, realized its reliability and paid attention to it again.
Moreover, freedom of action and a certain degree of help when necessary were nothing to Obito, and it was not a loss at all.
Even if he lost the bet, it was just a waste of energy.
And if he won the bet, at a critical moment, Aoba, this nail, could completely become the deciding factor, or the king bomb that reversed the situation!
This was the real reason why Obito took the risk to come to see Aoba!
"Yes, but I need my identity to be kept secret. I can't let anyone know about our relationship. After all, it is riskier to know one more person. In addition, how should I contact you?"
After confirming that Obito's proposal was beneficial to him without any harm, Aoba added a layer of insurance to himself.
