Chapter 205: Chapter 205: Obito’s originally serious and heavy topic was instantly derailed by Kano

"You motherf—!"

Obito’s originally serious and heavy topic was instantly derailed by Kano. What did she mean by ’the recruitment animation looks pretty good’? She was so young; she wasn’t allowed to watch that kind of thing!

"I don’t like talking about heavy topics. Just tell me what you want me to do with you. Start the Infinite Tsukuyomi?"

"So you really do know everything, the Eye of the Moon Plan. After thinking about it for the past few days, I’ve come to understand that it’s an unattainable land of gentleness; this is the cruel reality."

"Since you can create such a genjutsu, you must have similar thoughts. Everyone sinking into their own unique dream, where everyone can fulfill their wishes. Such a world is truly beautiful; you think so too, don’t you?"

Obito tried to convince Kano, even plotting to make her lose everything and become as desperate as him. Just like how he arranged Nagato’s life.

"Then let me ask you a few questions. If your answers satisfy me, it’s not impossible for me to help you."

Kano just wanted to confirm if, without Naruto, Obito could still repent.

"Go ahead and ask."

"Before I ask, I’ll tell you the whole truth. I hope it influences your answers."

Kano explained everything: how he was used by Madara, how Rin was killed because of Madara, and how even Madara was being used by someone else.

"Do you still feel like continuing this way?"

Obito was first shocked by the truth, then hesitated. He squatted down and pondered for a long time, his Sharingan opening and closing repeatedly.

Finally, he stood up straight and looked at Kano with a firm gaze.

"I must do this."

"Then do you choose to resurrect Rin or choose the destruction of the world?"

Obito hesitated again, but this time he just shook his head.

"Destroy the world."

Kano was somewhat helpless. Without Naruto’s Talk no Jutsu, this clan of ’little eyeballs’ just kept getting stuck in dead ends, impossible to reason with.

"Fine, fine. I was originally thinking of persuading you to be good and then helping you resurrect someone, but I guess forget it."

Obito was also struggling. He wanted to see Rin again, but he was unwilling to let her see this decadent world again.

Kano felt that this bastard Obito was a bit self-righteous. If she ever accidentally died, she would definitely want Naruto to find a way to resurrect her. At the very least, use Edo Tensei to bring her back.

Who wants to die when they can live well?

She had to tell Naruto about this in advance. In case she ever messed up, it would prevent Naruto from becoming ’Obito No. 2’ and leave a possibility for her own resurrection.

Though Kano didn’t think Naruto would be that paranoid.

"What if I say I’m going to stop you?"

"This is a space that belongs only to me. You cannot leave without me."

"Hahaha, true. How about this: if you give me a few Sharingan, I’ll help you?"

"What do you want the Sharingan for?"

"What else? For fun. I know all about your massacre of the Uchiha Clan. You Uchiha are lunatics, even laying hands on your own kin."

"Fine, follow me."

Obito had a bunch of Sharingan that he hadn’t hidden in some secret base yet; he just kept them in his Kamui Dimension.

Kano guessed: was the reason he later found a secret base to hide the Sharingan because Kakashi kept throwing trash into the Kamui Dimension?

"Here."

Obito randomly picked three jars and tossed them to Kano. After catching them, she casually shoved them into her pocket.

Each glass jar contained a pair of Sharingan. Obito had brought out a total of three pairs of Sharingan to bribe Kano.

"So generous?"

You’re so generous that I’d feel bad about ’killing the donkey once the grinding is done,’ ’burning the bridge after crossing it,’ or ’cooking the hound once the rabbit is caught.’

"Hey, Obito, turn back. Let go of the past. I know you’re a good person at heart."

Seeing Obito willing to be an enemy of the world for Rin’s sake, Kano was actually quite moved; she really liked pure love. She still held onto a sliver of hope to persuade Obito to return.

"There’s no going back. Rin isn’t there. To create a world with Rin, I cannot stop. Whether I’m being used or whether I’m a pawn. If you had experienced everything I have, you would walk the same path as me."

"I wouldn’t. I would choose to let go. The person you love wouldn’t want to see you like this either."

Kano felt a bit guilty saying this; it was too insincere. If Kano had experienced such things, she wouldn’t be as gentle as Obito.

Kano would definitely choose to make rivers of blood flow, with heads rolling everywhere—far more extreme than Obito.

"A little girl like you wouldn’t understand—you don’t understand a man’s resolve. But I admire your abilities. Join us."

Obito extended his hand.

Kano, who was originally feeling a bit guilty, immediately got angry.

I’ve been a man longer than you, okay! ’A little girl wouldn’t understand,’ huh? I’ll make you a little girl too!

"Since you’re being so sincere, I’ll give you a performance of my best song."

Kano pulled out her guitar and, with a zero-frame startup, played Gentle Land of Falling.

Before Obito could even say a word to stop her, he was already under control.

"Look, you’re already here, why bother bringing gifts?"

After finishing the performance, Kano collected all of Obito’s treasured Sharingan into her shadow. Although she wouldn’t replace her own eyes with red ones, these were basically out-of-print items, so collecting them was quite nice.

As for Obito... Kano admitted he was once a good person, a kind child. But he wasn’t anymore—not from the moment he attacked his teacher and his teacher’s wife, not from the moment he swung his blade at his own kin.

He could no longer turn back.

So even if Kano killed him right here, her conscience wouldn’t flicker in the slightest.

It’s just that Kano felt dying like this was too easy on him. Also, he only had one Sharingan right now; he’d be very weak after being drained.

Even if he isn’t Six Paths Obito, he should at least be Double Kamui Obito.

It would be a pity to kill him now, and it wasn’t very convenient to go borrow Kakashi-sensei’s Sharingan. Forget it, I’ll spare his life, just for Kakashi-sensei’s sake.

Kano swapped positions with a shadow bug at home and left the Kamui Dimension.

Kano pulled out a jar containing the Phone Snake Orochimaru had given her.

"Hello? Can you hear me?"

"Is it Grandmother? Are you looking for Sasuke-kun? I’ll go find him right away."

"No, no. I’m looking for you this time."

"Whatever orders you have, just say the word. I can do anything for you."

"Do you have any way to turn a man into a woman?"

"Uh...? How do you want to change them? A complete body swap, genetic modification, or just simple alteration?"

"The biological setup, and preferably the genetics as well."

"No problem. I can manage a medical procedure of that level."

"I have someone here who needs a body modification. Just the inner functions and genes."

"But wouldn’t the appearance then..."

"That’s fine. I have plenty of medicine to turn him into a beautiful girl."

"Alright. When will you send him over?"

"In a few days. He’s currently controlled by my genjutsu. You can operate without worry; he won’t wake up."

"Is he dangerous?"

"Very dangerous. It would be easy for him to defeat you, so it’s best not to let him wake up... Actually, wait until I’ve safely retrieved his ocular traits. I’ll give him a different pair of eyes then."

"Alright, understood. Any other orders?"

"Since you can turn a man into a woman, can you do the reverse? Like turning a woman into a man?"

"It’s not impossible, but it would mostly just be a body swap or simple replacement. Genetics can’t be fixed."

"Why?"

"Because with XY chromosomes, you can remove the Y and duplicate the X. But with XX chromosomes, you can’t create a Y out of thin air." Orochimaru, fearing Shikamaru wouldn’t understand, used another metaphor: "It’s easier to dig a hole than to plant a tree."

Kano sighed. Fine, it seemed she wouldn’t be able to get back her own unique ’holy sword.’ However, the handsome guys present still had hope of becoming adorable anime girls.

Kano equally blesses everyone who reads this passage to turn into a cute magical girl.

Amen.
