Jiraiya thought he had misheard the wrong thing, thinking that it was 'Teacher, they died because of me' instead of the sentence that Obito said.
Hizai didn't dare to believe it either.
"But they were killed by the Nine-Tails."
Hizai remembered what the Nine-Tails had heard from afar that night.
But the next moment he remembered the time when Rin was there, when he went to Kakashi's house and was attacked by Naruto and the Nine-Tails as if they were jokingly.
But that joke was a bit too much, though it wasn't as good as Kakashi's incident this time......
"It's the Nine-Tails I manipulated...... killed them,"
Obito didn't dare to look at them.
Although strictly speaking, the Nine-Tails took it upon the Water Gate Teacher to do it without permission, because it was no longer controlled by itself in the later period, but ...... The nine-tails that caused such consequences were indeed released by themselves.
And it seems that he killed a few people when he broke into Sister Jiusinai's delivery room...... Among them are three generations of wives.
Obito felt that if he confessed, he would probably be here today.
The kind that won't be discovered by a fourth person yet.
But now, if you don't say it clearly, maybe it will affect Kakashi and them.
- That's a felony.
If it weren't for the teacher sacrificing himself to seal the Nine-Tails, the village would have basically been destroyed.
But think that the village was gone, and maybe no one would cure their own crimes.
“…… Why? ”
Hinata tightened the hem of Jiraiya's back coat and stared at Obito's face.
"Watergate is usually the most worried about you, isn't he good to you? Why do you ...... Why ......"
Hizashi covered his face in some pain.
He suddenly remembered the defected Orochimaru, and remembered the Danzo who also wanted to kill him.
…… Why?
Hizai didn't understand.
"It's not the teacher's problem, it's... My own question, sorry ... Although it is useless to apologize now, I regret it but... It's all happened, and I can't go back even if I regret it......"
Obito didn't bother for a few seconds before kneeling.
Anyway, it's not that I haven't knelt, and this situation should indeed be kneeling, and I should kneel for a year and a half.
- "At the time of Rin's death, it was Kakashi who I attacked; After Rin was buried, it was I who buried Kakashi half into the ground; On the night of the teacher's accident, it was me...... The Nine-Tails who came out, it was also me who did it to Kakashi, I always thought he did it on purpose, because I saw it, and I saw that he took the initiative to do it to Rin, saying that he had solved the hostages, and no one could threaten him anymore, and I was angry because Rin, she, and she ......"
Obito was angry and wanted to cry when he thought of that picture.
Although it has been confirmed that it was a misunderstanding, isn't it normal to be bitter and sad because of something from the performance?
- "I... I found out the truth of the matter more than half a year ago, but Kakashi didn't blame me for anything, and Naruto could understand me, but I always felt sorry for him, so I also... I would often indulge him, because I felt that was what I had to do, and the teacher left because of my fault, and I had to atone for my sins, so ...... I've been trying to help them ever since."
- "I know that what I have done is not enough to make up for my past mistakes, that I have killed a lot of people, and that I should not be forgiven, but if I have to be executed, I ...... I hope at least when they reconcile and when I finally do something for them......"
It's okay to seal the Black Jedi even if he's not there, Kakashi can do it.
The most dangerous thing for Kakashi now is the kid who doesn't know where to go.
At least this thing... It should be fixed.
After that...... It doesn't matter what it is.
