As expected, in the upcoming days, Obito would be keeping a close watch on Kirigakure Village.
Facing an enemy who appears and disappears at will, tsk tsk, congratulations. Just make sure you don't end up in chaos.
However, Konohagakure wouldn't be free from Obito's watch either.
More specifically, it would be Kakashi who would be targeted.
Because Obito wanted to get his other Sharingan back.
It would increase his strength and also prevent him from being threatened.
This current threat was the perfect proof of that.
Don't casually give your things to others—if you're not careful, it might come back to bite you.
"Kakashi, we need to talk."
Yan had no intention of hiding it. He spoke directly to Kakashi in front of everyone:
"Although this Sharingan you have belongs to Obito, Obito has gone mad and is now standing against the entire ninja world. We cannot let him get this Sharingan back. Do you understand what I mean?"
Give up the Sharingan?
Kakashi obviously didn't want to, but the situation didn't give him much of a choice.
Leaving the Sharingan with him would only bring more trouble to him and the village.
"I'll follow the village's orders."
In the end, Kakashi chose the village and the ninja world over his darkened friends and former comrades.
"I'll find a way to transplant an eye that suits you.
Though it may sound rude, Kakashi, you might actually become stronger without this Sharingan, just like your father.
But be careful, don't get too obsessed like your father did, or you might end up being forced to a tragic end."
As he spoke, Yan cast a glance at the Third Hokage.
What are you going to do about it, staring at me like that? I've exposed you in front of everyone. What are you going to do? Bite me?
Be forced to death?
Kakashi slowly looked up, following Yan's gaze.
The people from the other villages suddenly realized that there might be some entertainment here. Maybe they could witness something big.
My god, this guy really dares to say anything.
Nara Shikaku sighed and covered his face. He had planned to remind Yan to keep quiet.
But considering that Yan wouldn't listen to him, and the private conflict with the Third Hokage, Shikaku decided it was better to stay quiet.
As long as he didn't get the blame, he was fine.
"Uchiha Yan, what are you talking about?"
The Third Hokage was both shocked and angry. Was it appropriate to say this in front of people from other villages?
What exactly do you want?
"I'm talking nonsense? Am I really? Isn't it just that a Hokage sleeve got you all worked up?
What's the matter? You can't even admit to what you've done?"
Yan gave a half-smile, looking down on them as he said:
"Others might be afraid of damaging the village's reputation, but I'm not. I think it's better to make some things public.
Even if it slightly hurts the village's reputation, it's better than letting more people follow in the same footsteps."
You really are something.
Everyone knew that Kakashi's father, the White Fang of Konohagakure, Hatake Sakumo, had died by suicide.
They also knew that the pressure for Sakumo to take his own life came from within the village.
But who would have thought that the Third Hokage and others were actually behind it?
No, to be more precise, they were the masterminds!
Not just supporters.
"Ahem!!"
Things were getting more dramatic. Nara Shikaku finally coughed.
Yan turned to look at him:
"What? Have you forgotten about Danzo's plot to take your Ino-Shika-Cho's people?"
Nara Shikaku: "....."
Forget I coughed. You go ahead.
Looks like this gossip is bigger than expected.
Just when everyone thought Yan was about to reveal more, Yan stopped, retracting his disdainful gaze.
"Shikaku, notify our people, clean up, and prepare to retreat back to the village."
"Yes!!"
Finally, it was over. Nara Shikaku wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly went to make arrangements.
"Wait a minute!"
The melon was gone, but no one really cared. After all, eating melon didn't really benefit anyone, but there was one issue that needed to be solved first.
Oonoki stepped forward:
"Uchiha Yan, we want to know how Konohagakure plans to handle Uchiha Obito's Sharingan."
"How we handle it is our village's own business. It has nothing to do with you all."
"Anyway, we won't let Obito get it, so you don't need to worry about Uchiha Obito storming your villages with his Susanoo and capturing your tailed beasts and Jinchuriki."
I can let you all enjoy the melon because the Third Hokage caused the trouble first. He started it, so I'll finish it.
But when it comes to our village's matters, it's not for you to interfere. Whatever we decide to do, that's our internal issue.
"Do the other villages want to get involved in this matter?"
Yan asked knowingly.
Isn't that obvious?
Oonoki, with a dark expression, wanted to snap at Yan,
but considering Yan's personality, he held himself back.
If he really snapped, Yan would most likely just walk away with his people and ignore him. If things got bad, Yan might even have a fight with him first.
"Yan, even though how we handle this Sharingan is Konohagakure's business, this Sharingan concerns the entire ninja world. I think the five great ninja villages should discuss it together," Rasa stepped forward to speak for everyone.
We respect Konohagakure's position, but since it concerns the entire ninja world, it's better if we all handle it together.
If you stubbornly believe that this is Konohagakure's matter and only they can handle it, then forget I said anything.
"Is this what you all think too?"
Yan glanced at the others, continuing to ignore the Third Hokage.
If it wasn't, why are we even here?
"This matter can be handled by the five great ninja villages together, but I have one condition."
A condition?
Rasa and the others exchanged looks. They had expected Yan to refuse firmly.
Instead, he agreed decisively and then put forward a condition.
If he agrees, then they can all sit down and discuss it slowly.
If he refuses, then sorry, Konohagakure will handle it themselves.
Thinking of Yan's recent actions, the black lines on Ai's dark forehead became more apparent.
Could this kid be trying to extort everyone for money?
It's not that Raikage likes to overthink or make malicious guesses. It's just that recently, Konohagakure and Yan's actions have been a bit suspicious, always talking about money.
Kumogakure Village had already given a lot, both openly and secretly.
So when Yan brought up conditions, Ai instinctively thought that Yan was after money.
"What's the condition?"
Rasa spoke on behalf of the group. From now on, he would be the one to handle the negotiations.
If this were left to the Third Hokage or Tsunade, they would have agreed to let the five great ninja villages handle it the moment Oonoki spoke.
But unfortunately, they were dealing with Yan. Tsunade was still in the village, and the Third Hokage was in a bad mood.
Yan had just thrown out some annoying issues, which really pissed him off.
Now, Kakashi's look at the Third Hokage had already turned sour.
Even though he respected the Third Hokage, the person who was forced to die was his father!
