Chapter 363 The Meaning of the Dead

Haneda said calmly with a hint of nostalgia:

"He cares deeply about his companions, even though he often slandered and outwardly hated me and Kakashi when we were young, he was willing to sacrifice for us later."

"He is very brave. Even when facing an impossible enemy, he dared to stand in front of us with a kunai."

"He is very kind. He often helps old ladies cross the road on his way to school in the morning. Even if he will be scolded by the teacher and laughed at by his classmates afterwards, he will always do it."

"He is very motivated. He may not have understood the meaning of strength when he was young, but later on, after experiencing all kinds of powerlessness, he became hardworking."

Haneda's voice, along with the teacher's lecture in the classroom, entered Obito's ears.

The memories that Obito buried deep in his heart appeared before his eyes one by one. Those were the times he would never forget.

"Heh~"

Obito chuckled and said, "This guy sounds interesting, what's his name?"

Before Haneda could speak, Kakashi answered:

"Obito Uchiha."

"I haven't heard of him. I think I saw his name on the memorial tablet. Is he dead, Kakashi-senpai?"

Obito's slightly low voice returned to its previous form as Ah Fei, becoming jumpy and exaggerated.

Kakashi whispered, "He died. He died in front of me. He was a hero."

"You're still dead, Senior! Death is meaningless. There's only a name left on the tombstone."

"Isn't that the way it is in war? Who cares except for friends and family?"

Ah Fei turned his attention to Haneda again:

"Speaking of which, speaking of which, Lord Hokage, will you remember the names of all the people on the memorial tablet?"

Haneda glanced at Ah Fei and said truthfully: "No."

Ah Fei said with a smile: "That's right, the dead are just a string of numbers to the superiors."

"One person dying is death, one hundred people dying is death, one thousand people dying is death, ten thousand people dying is also death, what's the difference?"

"So, death is meaningless."

Kakashi said: "How is it meaningless? He lives on in our hearts!"

Ah Fei asked with a smile: "Is he still there?"

Kakashi was silent.

People are here, always here.

But the person has changed, or in other words, he has higher pursuits, pursuits and ideals that are different from his own.

The paths taken by two people have already forked, and it is difficult for them to meet again.

Seeing that Haneda and Kakashi were not in good condition, Pein said in a deep voice:

"Okay, Ah Fei, let's stop talking about the dead!"

After Pain's interruption, the group returned to their previous state.

Haneda led the way in introducing the school's facilities, curriculum and philosophy, while A Fei created a lively atmosphere.

Pain and Konan secretly learned some techniques, while Kakashi remained silent the whole time, observing Afei's condition.

As some students left school early, the first day of exchange ended early.

In the next two and a half days, Haneda took Pain and the others to inspect other ninja schools in Konoha.

Haneda and Pain agreed on the time to officially dispatch the exchange students, and Pain took Konan and Afei away.

…………

Konoha, the third training ground.

After seeing off the members of Akatsuki, Haneda and Kakashi came here tacitly.

The third training ground was where the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze often trained, and it was later passed on to Haneda and Kakashi.

As the training ground for two generations of Hokage, this place has always been a restricted area, with Anbu conducting inspections 24 hours a day.

This place is very secluded, and Haneda and Kakashi often discuss things that are inconvenient to discuss here.

"Kakashi, Obito hasn't done anything in the past few days, right?" Haneda asked.

It was Kakashi who had been keeping an eye on Obito.

Because of their identities, Haneda and Obito being together easily arouses Obito's vigilance.

Kakashi said: "I'm not sure. I only know that Afei, who I was in charge of monitoring, was very well behaved except for the first day when he did something to Naruto and the others."

"You know, I told you before that Fei and Obito are sometimes two people."

"Afei is not necessarily Obito. His skin is very strange. I have consulted Orochimaru before. Orochimaru suspects that Afei's body is a shell made of White Zetsu."

"Obito can shed his shell at any time and appear as Madara."

"That's also why Pain and the others didn't suspect that Fei was Madara."

"The only way to tell if Fei is Obito or White Zetsu is through the Sharingan."

"Obito's eyes are the Mangekyō Sharingan. His eyes are special."

Haneda nodded slightly, he knew that Obito had many methods.

When one method failed to approach Naruto and Gaara, Obito would try other means.

Haneda divided his wooden clones into two to protect Naruto and Gaara, and Obito did not try to approach them in recent days.

This made Haneda unsure of Obito's purpose in coming to Konoha openly.

Haneda thought about it for a while and decided not to bother with it.

As long as he fuses the giant Rinnegan and awakens the Samsara Eye, no one can stop him, no matter whether it is Madara or Black Zetsu.

As for bringing back Obito...

Haneda had to hide some things to facilitate his plan.

"Let's put this matter aside for now. Payne has agreed to cooperate with us."

"He will lead Yuyin to cooperate with Konoha and communicate with the Akatsuki organization to start the Fourth Ninja World War with us."

"You should know the purpose of this war."

“That’s what’s important.”

"besides……"

Haneda looked at Kakashi's left eye, which was covered by the Konoha Ninja forehead protector, and asked with concern:

"Are you going blind?"

Kakashi avoided Haneda's gaze and said in a panic:

"I can still use it. I rarely use Kamui. I usually only use Flying Thunder God."

Haneda said: "You don't have to lie to me, my eyes can see your eyes."

"I have asked Orochimaru to arrange the time in advance to help you transplant the first generation cells, which I got from A Fei."

“Safe enough.”

"And I will be watching you from the side, and I can use my power to help you at any time."

Kakashi shook his head and said, "Haneda, I know you are fusing your Samsara Eye, and this is not a suitable time."

"You have mostly used your pupil power to suppress the Samsara Eye. If you use the All-Seeing Magic again, it may cause something unexpected."

"The eye matter is just a small matter. If you go blind, you go blind. I still have my right eye. Let's talk about it after you fuse the Samsara Eye."

"You are still the same, unwilling to trouble me." Haneda smiled and untied the Yang seal.

The brilliant light of the Samsara Eye instantly bloomed on his forehead, dazzling like a gem.

"I have already initially integrated the Samsara Eye, and I can free up a large portion of my pupil power, which is enough." Haneda said.

"You don't have to refuse. You don't want your past to be written into my new book, do you?"

Haneda was afraid that Kakashi would disagree, so he added another sentence.
