Chapter 065: The Masked Man is Obito? Obito's Public Humiliation!
[Dōjutsu Ranking, 22nd Place: Uchiha Shisui, possessing the Mangekyō Sharingan in his right eye, which can permanently alter a person's will and cast various illusions.]
[Danzo: ????? Uchiha Shisui? Isn't it Uchiha Itachi? So Itachi didn't transplant Shisui's eye? Does that mean this eye is still unclaimed and hidden away by Itachi?]
[Mei Terumi: This is an eye that can earn a ranking reward. Itachi should have immediately transplanted it. Even if there are side effects, he could first use it to claim the reward and later remove it. Is he really going to just give up on this reward?]
[Uchiha Shisui: Itachi, are you giving up the reward?]
[Uchiha Itachi: This Mangekyō Sharingan belongs to you. What if the reward is useful to you? Besides, I have my own eyes and don't need the reward.]
[Orochimaru: Damn Itachi, if you don't need the reward, you could have given that eye to me!]
[Hidan: Uchiha Itachi is too stupid. If you don't want the eye, you could have given it to me. I have an immortal body and could temporarily use that eye. We could split the reward afterward!]
[Kakuzu: Itachi is still too naive. For a reward, there's no need to hesitate. A reward for being ranked 22nd on the Dōjutsu List is incredibly valuable. It's such a waste to just let it go!]
"This guy actually doesn't want Shisui's eye!"
Uchiha Sasuke grumbled angrily.
If he had an eye like that, he could make it onto the list and have a chance of catching up to that guy.
Everyone thought Uchiha Itachi was foolish, but no one knew his true thoughts.
"Interesting. Itachi has already paved a path for himself and is determined to die. Otherwise, given his situation back then, he could have transplanted his parents' eyes to evolve his own into the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, avoiding the physical strain of using the Mangekyō. He just wanted to wait for Sasuke to grow up and then let Sasuke kill him!"
Ye Tian murmured.
As a transmigrator, he naturally knew this but had no intention of interfering.
[Gaara: Shisui's right eye only ranks 22nd, and Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan hasn't appeared yet. It seems his ranking will be higher.]
[Fourth Hokage: And Obito's eye hasn't appeared either. Obito should only have one Mangekyō Sharingan, yet its ranking is higher than Shisui's!]
[Kakashi: Obito's eye is very powerful, and his mastery of it surpasses mine, so it ranks higher.]
In reality, at this moment, Obito was feeling a bit panicked.
Judging by the Dōjutsu List, it seemed likely that his eye's abilities would be revealed, and its ranking would expose him.
If that happened, everyone would realize that the masked man was him.
He had once controlled the Nine-Tails and fought the Fourth Hokage, who knew his Dōjutsu abilities well. He feared this would lead to his social death!
If the Fourth Hokage revealed this in the livestream, everyone would hunt him down, and even Rin might come out to question him.
"Let it be. If the Infinite Tsukuyomi plan succeeds, they will all forget everything. A beautiful world will emerge, and I will live with Rin in the ideal world," Uchiha Obito murmured.
Soon, the Dōjutsu List's 21st place was revealed.
[Dōjutsu Ranking, 21st Place: Uchiha Izuna, possessing the Mangekyō Sharingan with powerful abilities like observation, copying, and hypnosis, as well as the Dōjutsu Susano'o and Blaze Release: Kagutsuchi.]
[Uchiha Madara: Izuna's Mangekyō Sharingan, huh? Since I fused it, it's now part of me. It seems that according to the Golden List's rules, Izuna's eyes no longer exist, and the deceased Izuna is recognized as the owner of those eyes!]
[Uchiha Izuna: Big brother is right!]
[Uchiha Madara: Not many possess the Mangekyō Sharingan. Now that your eyes have appeared, Itachi's Mangekyō Sharingan should be next!]
[Third Hokage: The 20th place on the Dōjutsu List should be Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan.]
[Kakashi: It should be close. Obito's single Mangekyō Sharingan would rank around there.]
Soon enough.
The Dōjutsu List's 20th place was revealed.
Originally, many ninjas thought the 20th place on the list would be Uchiha Obito's Mangekyō Sharingan.
However, they were immediately dumbfounded.
[Dōjutsu Ranking, 20th Place: Uchiha Itachi, possessing the Mangekyō Sharingan with powerful abilities such as observation, copying, hypnosis, and the ability to cast Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and Susano'o.]
[Third Hokage: What? Itachi's eyes rank lower than Obito's? Obito only has one Mangekyō Sharingan!]
[Tsunade: It seems Obito's eye must be very special, with extremely powerful abilities and effects. The Dōjutsu List previously mentioned that rankings are primarily based on the power of the Dōjutsu, so Obito's single eye must possess an exceptionally strong Dōjutsu ability.]
[Jiraiya: Tsunade's analysis is spot on. It seems we've underestimated Obito.]
"The power of that guy's Dōjutsu surpasses mine?"
Uchiha Itachi murmured.
He wasn't surprised by this at all. Uchiha Obito was very mysterious, and as one of the founders and masterminds behind the Akatsuki, he wouldn't have revealed his true identity, even during the last Q&A session.
Uchiha Obito's Dōjutsu was incredibly powerful, and so was his overall strength. Itachi didn't have much hope of defeating him.
Therefore, he found this ranking to be quite reasonable.
Soon enough, the 19th place on the Dōjutsu List was announced.
This time, it was a name unfamiliar to most—a powerful Uchiha from history who also possessed the Mangekyō Sharingan and was once a shining figure of his era.
His name could only be found in the Uchiha clan's genealogical records.
In fact, this individual was one of the reincarnations of Indra's chakra. Here, reincarnation doesn't mean the soul's rebirth but rather the transfer of chakra into another person.
Indra's soul still resided in the Pure Land, but his chakra remained in the ninja world.
Several ranks in a row were filled by strong individuals from history, all of whom were also reincarnations of Indra's chakra.
These figures weren't very present in the current world and naturally didn't engage in conversation.
Before long, a familiar name appeared on the list.
[Dōjutsu Ranking, 15th Place: Uchiha Obito, possessing the Mangekyō Sharingan in his right eye with powerful abilities such as observation, copying, and hypnosis. He can use the Kamui phasing technique, which allows his body to become intangible, transferring the targeted part to a different dimension at the moment of an attack. This can be used to evade attacks and pass through barriers. The downside is a time limit, with a five-minute interval.]
"What the hell! Why describe it in such detail, even down to the five minutes!"
Uchiha Obito cursed.
This detailed description immediately caught everyone's attention.
[Fourth Raikage: Phasing? This ability can ignore attacks? That's a terrifying power. And it seems he can also hide in a different dimension. Such an ability is too overpowered. No wonder it ranks so high.]
[Fourth Hokage: Over ten years ago, a masked man infiltrated Konoha when my wife was weakened from childbirth and released the Nine-Tails. That masked man fought me. I initially thought he was Uchiha Madara, but after considering everything, I believe it wasn't him. The Akatsuki currently has a masked member who appeared in the future scenes. Although the Akatsuki members have been exposed, it's possible that this masked man joins them later. I didn't think much of it at the time. But that masked man had a phasing ability identical to Obito's. So, Obito, were you the one who controlled the Nine-Tails and caused the Nine-Tails attack over a decade ago?]
[Kakashi: What? The person responsible for the deaths of Sensei and Sensei's wife was Obito? Impossible! Minato-sensei treated Obito so well; how could Obito do such a thing? Besides, back then, Obito wasn't powerful enough to do something like that!]
[Fourth Hokage: What if Madara hadn't fully died at that time and passed on his eye power to Obito? The Nine-Tails mentioned that the person controlling it resembled Uchiha Madara. It's possible that Obito possessed Madara's eye power, allowing him to control the Nine-Tails. Additionally, Obito has Madara's fan, which I initially thought he obtained by chance. But now, it seems it was left by Madara, and Obito merely inherited it. Moreover, half of Obito's body was crushed by a boulder; he couldn't have survived such injuries on his own. Someone must have saved him. So, it's very likely that Madara saved Obito back then and trained him. Even if my theory has some flaws, Obito is the only one with the phasing ability. The masked man from before and the current masked man are the same person—Uchiha Obito.]
