Miscellaneous: Obito 4
You are the cheerful and sunny Uchiha Obito, you are the lively and funny Ah Fei, and you are the cold and gloomy Madara Uchiha, but at the end, you say "I'm nobody." "Uchiha Obito was gone long after Rin's death, Madara Uchiha's identity is someone else's, and Ah Fei is a temporary role.
After Rin's death, you became Madara Uchiha. The word "becoming" is very heavy, and generally speaking, the premise of becoming a person and carrying one's destiny is to give up. Completely abandon yourself, and then change again, become him, become Madara Uchiha. What's even sadder is that you succeed and then lose the self who loves you. If you don't have it, then you can be the conspirator named "Madara Uchiha" with peace of mind, say what he can say, and do what he can do. Go farther and farther on such a dead end.
And the boy who was brighter than the sun at the beginning was locked in a dark cage by you, and the sturdy iron bars were rusty, and he could only let out a piercing cry of despair when he scratched the grinding. But the sorrow was cut off by the oppressive darkness, and finally drowned in silence.
You used to be such a nice boy. Although he is a little weak and loves to talk big, he is still a crane tail, but he is sincere and not hypocritical, and he will give everything for him if he identifies his friend. In the beginning, in your world, Kakashi didn't even want to play the trick, and you wanted to treat the other person as an opponent - but now that you think about it, the little boy who used to provoke and run away crying after being counterattacked was really cute and cute.
I liked you so much at that time, I couldn't help but smile when I saw you, and cried until my eyes were red and swollen because of your departure...... So, when Naruto shattered your mask, I couldn't believe my eyes at all. And all my shock, anger, grief and even despair gathered in my chest, and finally blurted out only one sentence: "Why you?!" "How can it be you? Anyone can do it, but it can't be you! How could that cold and gloomy man who called himself "Madara Uchiha" be equated with you who smiled brighter than the sun at the beginning. It's obviously the same eyes, but after many years, they have long lost the moist softness they had at the beginning, leaving only sharp and hollow.
Why did you become like this? Is it because the girl who would say "I'll always look at you" is gone? That girl, with a pair of clear amber eyes, the darkness can't hide the faint warm light in them, just one glance fell into your little world. I watched you run through the jungle with your badly injured body, and your tone was firm, "I'm going to protect Rin with Kakashi," you were like the bravest hero in the world, fighting all the way to protect the girl you love. But when you really rush out, what you see is that the beautiful face of the girl you love is stained with dust, her eyes widen in horror, a mouthful of blood gushes out of the corners of her mouth, and her originally clear eyes dim a little under the blue electric light, and finally fall silent.
The girl you love is gone. I heard your crumbling roar, and it was so ugly, it was like it had been torn open and pulled out of your throat; I saw you lose your mind and slaughter, corpses strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed. Killing, blood, death, despair - this world, there is no light anymore. At this moment, the faith in your heart is completely shattered, tears are falling, and you say, "I am in hell." ”
Step by step, you dripping through the blood, came to Lynn's side, leaned down, and carefully hugged your girl. The gesture of despair is like a phantom hugging a deceased lover. "Lynn, I'm going to create a world with you." At that time, you didn't cry. But I feel like you're crying. The cry went up and down his throat and couldn't find a way out, and at last he could only let out a low hoarse voice in his chest, like the sorrow of a man dying before drowning.
There will be no more light, never again. The meaning of your life comes from Lynn's smile, and if you lose it, everything becomes meaningless......
In the days when you were concentrating on the Eye of the Moon Project, you worked hard day and night, and you didn't have time to think about anything else, I thought you were living like this with that mask for the rest of your life. However, when you meet the blonde boy who is so similar to you once was; When you realize that what you have been busy with for years is only a huge scam that is a mixture of truth and falsehood; When you finally see everything clearly, I realize that those people and those things have been kept intact in the only soft corner of your heart.
Yes, you can't get rid of pain and resentment, isn't it because the tenderness and beauty of your heart are always fighting against these dark opposites? So, I think, it's not that you don't regret not being able to arrive in time to save Rin, it's not that you don't regret indirectly killing your respected teacher and wife, and it's not that Kakashi who doesn't feel sad that he has spent most of his life polishing himself into someone else's appearance...... It's just that you can't – there are some things that you can't stop once you start.
Thankfully, you've been able to get it back. Naruto Uzumaki, that child and you are like a mirror, but in the end, the flame burning on that child is so bright, bright and dazzling, that you want to lean over. That light illuminates the deepest part of your heart and allows you to find yourself locked in your cage. And in your heart, the real you is the thirteen-year-old Konoha Nakashinobi, Uchiha Obito......
Finally, when Kaguya's bone blade was about to pierce you, you used Kamui to transfer the bones that flew towards Kakashi to another dimension, but you yourself were pierced through your body...... Bright red blood, heart-piercing pain, but you are smiling. It was the relief and relief of finally taking off the mask, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were stretched, "You must become the Hokage", you said to Naruto with a smile. And when facing Kakashi, even if there are a thousand words in his heart, the only thing that can be said in the end is this one: "Thank you, Kakashi." "You are companions, from the beginning, to the end, all of them. So, there is no need to say "I'm sorry". And after all this, you can finally leave with Lin in peace, this is the ending of your dreams, I wish you happiness.
Uchiha Obito – The man who dreamed of becoming the Hokage finally became a true hero before the end of his life.
What to do with the pieces to be used?
The layout destroys the spiritual pillar of the chess piece, and plunges him into despair and resentment towards the world. In this way, the pieces can be used for their own purposes.
Obito gave the exact same answer as Madara.
At this time, how could he not understand what Madara had done to him in the first place.
However, even though everything is in place (Obito thinks) enough to get rid of Madara's control, and even more so during the Great War, Obito has no intention of leaving Madara's side.
And not just for the Eye of the Moon.
There are even more simple reasons.
Lin was the spiritual pillar of Obito for the first half of his life.
After that pillar collapsed, a new pillar that supported Obito again and allowed him to live was called Madara Uchiha.
Therefore, even if he was beaten by Naruto, Kakashi, Shiyo, and Kuro Jue in turn, he still held his breath and asked what kind of existence he was for Madara with an almost hopeless hope.
By this time, Obito was still reluctant to part ways with Madara. Asking this question is nothing more than hoping that Madara can give him a reason, a reason that is enough for him to continue to stay by Madara's side, enough for him to continue to ignore his mistakes, and to be able to go all the way to the dark until he dies.
The problem is, with Obito's knowledge of Madara, he knows what kind of answer he's going to get.
But he still insisted on asking as if he were fighting his last breath.
As a result, Madara's rejection of "Obito" became the last straw that crushed him.
When I saw this, I almost instantly concluded that this person would not survive. The next few times it seemed to be repeated, and the bento was hot, cold, and hot, but it couldn't shake this idea.
Because, with the soil here, he can no longer find a third spiritual pillar that is enough to support him to continue to live.
There were only a few living people he knew, and the range of choices was pitifully small—even if there was no one to choose from.
Naruto? Everyone is not so familiar, the other party is just a half-grown teenager, plus the hatred of killing his parents, no matter how much Obito will not reach out to him.
Kakashi? It seems to be very reliable, but in fact it is the most unlikely option. The memories of a teenager who are too long ago and not too pleasant, the resentment and knot in his heart caused by Lynn's death, coupled with the awe-inspiring performance of a business-like and righteous performance of a dead hand to himself after the reunion - what would Obito think of such a person? He didn't dare to think about that at all, and he didn't dare to stretch out his hand to the other party. It's a pity that Kakashi's inner tangle and pain, even if everyone around him can feel it, he can't pass it on to Obito at all.
Even if he knew, Obito wouldn't allow Kakashi to be his dependent. This is his bottom line and his last self-esteem. For Obito, Kakashi was already the only thing left in the Uchiha Obito's past—perhaps not precious, but the only remnant.
Kakashi says that the only thing he can do for Obito is to kill Obito.
This sentence hit Obito no less than Kakashi. So in the end, Obito didn't want or dare to pull Kakashi into his own quagmire anymore - I wanted him to be okay and let him go.
The only thing Obito can do for Kakashi is to kill Obito as well.
Forget about me and live - this is Obito's greatest expression of love for Kakashi.
Madara's answer that crushed Obito's last bit of hope may not be the one Obito believes at the moment.
The meaning of "you are just me" should be a fairly high evaluation and affirmation for Madara. Perhaps, there is still a bit of ambiguous identification that puts Obitu into the scope of "me".
Obito should understand. He should have understood. But at this moment, he refused to understand.
Eighteen years ago, this sentence might still be something he couldn't ask for.
But, time and words are such interesting things, my honey, the arsenic of the other. God knows how many meanings a sentence has.
Behold, he hated and even hated him, but his only remaining pillar was him.
The one who won't forcibly break his white knuckles when he clutches at the other side.
In fact, it seems to me that Obito and Naruto are superficially similar, they are both orphans, crane tails (pseudo), and crave the approval of those around them. But in fact, these two people are completely different from each other, Naruto has a very solid ego, and he pursues the recognition of others because he wants to gain the approval of others (social fulfillment). So even when everyone doesn't think of him, he's still super confident and aggressive. And Obito has no ego at all, he doesn't know what he wants at all, he is the kind of person who has to live in the expectations and eyes of others, and once the person who is important to him dies, a serious crisis of self-consciousness ensues
The approval of others was a trophy for Naruto and a necessity for survival for Obito
In the early stages, Rin satisfies this need, and like you said, after Rin's death, Madara takes Rin's place as Obito's pillar. Obito claims that he hates the cruel ninja world because of Rin's death, but in fact, it is better to say that this world is the only one that Rin can give him approval, and he hates a world that does not give him approval and denies him. At this time, Madara gave Obito what his "indifferent" master Mizuto and his fellow Kakashi who looked down on him could not give him: all strength, experience, wisdom and power.
That's why he followed Madara to the dark, in the end, his heart was too weak, and his childhood experience was denied too much. So the plug-in that Madara gave him was like a drug that made him addicted, so that he could never return to the normal righteous order.
This is also why when Kakashi finally passed on the scene he thought of Obito and his partner to Obito, Obito was completely shaken. He realized that those friends of his childhood didn't actually disapprove of him? And Kakashi, who looked down on him, actually thought in his heart that he could be Hokage. He didn't really need to take the path of Madara at all, and at this moment he really regretted it, so it became the main reason for his failure
In the end, he actually can't go anywhere, in fact, he himself is bound by a strong moral outlook (this can be compared to Orochimaru in the villain, Orochimaru has harmed countless people for experiments, and his hands are covered with blood, but he never feels that he has done anything wrong, nor does he feel that he wants to atone for his sins). So on the one hand, there is no way for him to follow Madara who has abandoned him. On the other hand, he knew that he had no way to turn back from the deep sin and torture, and no matter what he did, he could not pay off the blood debt he owed to his fellow disciples and the son of his master, so he could only walk in front and die a heroic death as he himself said
Madara said to Obito, "Obito is the type of deep love." ”
Such a self was also said by him, "You are Madara Uchiha".
So, isn't Madara just like himself, a gentle and loving person?
Madara emphasized the meaning of "you are Madara Uchiha", and Obito finally understood.
As long as he is willing to escape under the name of "Madara Uchiha", Uchiha Obito will come to an end as the "hero of Konoha".
Turn the world upside down, start wars, and commit heinous crimes – it's not the hero who brings courage and hope to these things.
Uchiha Obito is innocent, and has nothing to do with this cruel, cruel and bloody crime, and let all the blame be attributed to Madara Uchiha - until Obito rejects this obscure and almost cruel tenderness, and chooses to die as Uchiha Obito and bear the identity of a great sinner. And that person still threw the words "You are just my pawn" in the face of Obito's betrayal, trying to deprive Obito of his stigma and carry everything alone.
