Naruto: This Uchiha is a businessman Chapter 116

“This…what’s going on?”

Obito was a bit confused. In his memory, Lu Lin would never sell his courtyard, not even if he left Konoha. But now…

What confused him even more was that he had once again met someone who didn’t know Lu Lin.

“No, I have to go ask the clan leader for clarification.”

Without even returning home, Obito rushed off to find Fugaku Uchiha. Others might not know Lu Lin, but Fugaku, as his younger brother, couldn’t possibly not know.

Unfortunately, with Obito’s current status, let alone seeing Fugaku, he couldn’t even enter the clan leader’s courtyard.

He could only walk home dejectedly, but unexpectedly, he saw a familiar figure halfway there:

“Shisui!”

Shisui, who had just returned from a mission, heard someone call him and instinctively looked for the source of the sound, discovering it was a Uchiha child.

“You know me?”

Shisui asked, a bit puzzled. His words made Obito’s happy smile instantly disappear, but he still forced himself to say:

“I admire you very much. Your strength is so great.”

“Ah, thank you.”

Although a bit confused, Shisui still politely thanked him. His strength was great? He wasn’t even sure himself.

Seeing Shisui look at him so strangely, Obito could only make a few perfunctory remarks and then parted ways with him.

Back home, Obito lay on the bed with a headache. He didn’t understand how Lu Lin in the genjutsu could have disappeared.

He was now certain that Lu Lin didn’t exist in the genjutsu he was in, because he had seen Ming Yan without his Sharingan on the street, as well as several Uchiha who had followed Lu Lin in the original world.

If Lu Lin existed, he would never abandon these people. He knew how loyal these people were to Lu Lin, and how much Lu Lin valued them.

Although he didn’t know why Lu Lin would create such a genjutsu, Obito could only go with the flow.

After all, he had tried, and he didn’t even have a Three-Tomoe Sharingan now. His chakra was pitifully small, and his strength was about the same as when he had just graduated from the Ninja Academy. Trying to break free from this genjutsu was out of the question.

He could only wait for Lu Lin to release him from the genjutsu.

Having thought all of this through, Obito had no choice but to go to sleep. He still had to train with Minato Namikaze tomorrow.

After accepting this series of changes, Obito’s life also became regular. Every day, besides training with Minato Namikaze, he would also train for a long time after returning home.

He also repeatedly refused Rin’s invitations to eat together, which made Rin a bit confused. The old Obito used to cling to her every day, but now he was indifferent to her.

However, she wasn’t discouraged by this, after all, she had always only considered Obito her friend. If a friend had something going on, she wouldn’t bother him too much.

With a Three-Tomoe and elite Jonin-level strength, Obito’s current retraining was twice as effective with half the effort. Before long, to Minato Namikaze’s surprise, his strength reached the Chunin level, and he even spontaneously awakened a Single-Tomoe Sharingan.

“Very good, so to celebrate Obito awakening his Sharingan, let’s all go eat barbecue tonight! Obito, you can’t refuse this time, or sensei will lose a lot of face.”

“Got it.”

Obito nodded. These days, he had finally reintegrated into Konoha’s life. It was also time to get in touch with Kakashi, because if Lu Lin didn’t exist in this world, then Kakashi would truly lose his father.

As his friend, he naturally had to comfort him.

In the evening, Minato Namikaze brought Kushina and met Obito at the barbecue restaurant entrance.

Looking at the deeply affectionate Minato Namikaze and Kushina, Obito’s gaze flickered. If he remembered correctly, the Third Great Ninja War was about to begin.

But this time, with no Tea Country led by Lu Lin, how would the war develop?

Unfortunately, his current strength was too weak to have much impact on the battlefield.

Sure enough, just a few days after the gathering, Konoha visibly grew tense. The winds of war had arrived.

First, the Third Raikage died under the siege of tens of thousands of Iwagakure shinobi. Obito remembered this event; it had shocked the entire ninja world back then.

Immediately after, the future Fourth Raikage, Ay, brought the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, Killer B, and a group of Kumogakure shinobi to attack Konoha.

His sensei, Minato Namikaze, received a mission to form a temporary squad with Choza Akimichi, Tsume Inuzuka, and others to intercept the Kumogakure forces. Obito, Kakashi, and Rin naturally had to follow.

Obito was unclear about the details of this battle, as outside the genjutsu, he should have been with Lu Lin, focusing on developing the Land of Tea.

He only knew that Minato Namikaze and the others successfully drove back the Kumogakure forces in this battle, and also made Minato Namikaze’s reputation resound throughout the ninja world. The name “Yellow Flash” was known to all.

Therefore, Obito wasn’t too worried about this battle.

Fast forward to the battlefield, Obito, Kakashi, and Rin were constantly fighting ordinary Kumogakure shinobi. Both Obito and Kakashi cut down these enemies with swift movements.

Obito’s performance greatly surprised Kakashi. He knew Obito had broken through to Chunin and awakened his Sharingan, but he hadn’t expected his strength to be almost equal to his own.

Obito felt a little proud inside.

Back in the village, Kakashi had always surpassed him in both strength and talent.

Now, in the genjutsu, he had finally caught up to Kakashi, and he even wondered if he could surpass Kakashi.

As Obito expected, Minato Namikaze successfully defeated the A-B duo while fighting two-on-one, which made Obito truly see how terrifyingly strong his usually smiling sensei was.

The Yellow Flash truly lived up to his name.

With the Kumogakure crisis resolved, they hadn’t even had a chance to rest when another order came from the village, telling them to go support Mimura Hamaki.

Minato Namikaze said that Iwagakure had suddenly launched a sneak attack on the Land of Fire, causing the Konoha defense forces to fail to react in time.

So, the four rushed non-stop towards the Iwagakure battlefield.

Obito couldn’t help but feel a little depressed. What kind of genjutsu was this? Was it trying to exhaust him to death? Battle after battle, with no time to rest, even an iron man couldn’t endure it.

(Something came up today and caused a delay, sorry.)
