Naruto Dream Fulfillment Master

Page 198

Sure enough, in less than a few minutes, he spotted Obito's familiar figure in the distance at the entrance of a small alley.

In the dream, Obito was seen bending over, supporting an elderly woman as they slowly walked forward.

The old woman leaned on her cane, one hand linked with Obito's arm, her wrinkled face reflecting a kind smile in the morning light.

She walked very slowly, taking each step carefully.

Obito patiently matched her pace, barely moving faster than a snail.

Seeing this, Kakashi was both annoyed and amused: Obito is still the same as ever, always doing good deeds...

But despite his laughter, he knew all too well that the scene before him was not so simple.

Kakashi's gaze narrowed slightly as the scene from his previous dream flashed through his mind: two old women who looked exactly alike and even dressed identically!

Kakashi became wary and quickly approached Obito and the old woman.

He composed himself, put on a relaxed smile, and raised his hand to greet, "Obito!"

"Who—?" The old lady heard the shout and looked up blankly.

Obito also stopped and turned around upon hearing the sound.

When he saw who it was, he was taken aback: "Kakashi? What are you doing here?"

Obito looked surprised. He knew very well that Kakashi's house and his own house were in completely opposite directions from each other in the village.

Logically speaking, Kakashi shouldn't be passing through here to go to school, so how did he suddenly appear here?

Kakashi ran forward quickly, slightly out of breath, and before he could answer, he had already begun to subtly observe the old woman next to Obito out of the corner of his eye.

The old woman looked to be at least seventy years old. She was thin and hunched over, wearing an ordinary gray kimono jacket. Her silver hair was tied up in a traditional bun with a wooden hairpin in the hair. Her face was covered with age spots and wrinkles.

She leaned on an ebony cane and carried a small bamboo basket full of vegetables, looking like an ordinary old woman you could see anywhere in the village.

Kakashi carefully examined her from head to toe, even secretly noticing the old woman's breathing and gait.

However you look at it, she is just an ordinary old lady.

Not only was his facial expression flawless, but the aura he exuded was indistinguishable from that of an ordinary septuagenarian.

Could this be just a coincidence?

Kakashi's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but wonder if he was just imagining things.

"Hey, Kakashi!" Obito noticed Kakashi staring blankly at the old lady he was helping, and frowned, asking, "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be going straight to school?"

Kakashi snapped out of his daze upon hearing this, turning his gaze away from the old man and instead looking Obito up and down.

Obito was sweating and his cheeks were slightly flushed. He had been running to catch his breath, but now he had to slow down because he was helping the old lady. He was getting anxious.

His expression betrayed a hint of frustration, yet he stubbornly maintained a helpful demeanor, which made Kakashi unable to suppress a smile.

However, he quickly remembered another crucial question—was the Obito in front of him an NPC Obito from his dream, or the real Uchiha Obito?

After all, in the last dream, the real Obito had entered with him.

Kakashi's mind raced, but he remained outwardly calm.

He deliberately gave a teasing smile: "I'm just worried you'll be late and miss the graduation ceremony!"

"W-What?!" Obito jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "You stinky Kakashi! Who do you think you are?! I won't be late!"

He protested loudly, his face flushed, glaring angrily at Kakashi.

Upon seeing this, Kakashi's tense expression relaxed slightly: it seems this isn't the real Obito.

Having confirmed this, Kakashi was relieved.

It's actually easier to act when you're the only one awake in the dream.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glance at the old man beside Obito, and once again became more vigilant.

"Is he your friend?" the old woman asked tremulously, giving Kakashi a kind smile. "What a polite child."

Kakashi nodded politely to the old woman, then said to Obito, "Let's go, I'll help you take Grandma home. The sooner you get her home, the better you can get to your graduation ceremony!"

"Mind your own business! Who needs your help! I can handle this all by myself!"

His face flushed red as he shouted, "And I'll be at school on time!"

Kakashi shrugged: "Obito, you don't want to miss the chance to attend the graduation ceremony with Rin either, do you?"

Obito was speechless: "This..."

Kakashi stepped forward to the other side of the old woman, reached out and took her other arm, and said respectfully, "Grandma, let me help you walk too!"

"Oh, good, good boy." The old lady paused for a moment, then nodded with a kind smile, giving Kakashi a wrinkled smile. "Thank you, young man."

"You're welcome," Kakashi said politely, steadying the old man's arm.

Seeing this, Obito turned his head away and muttered under his breath, "Hmph, you stinky Kakashi, I won't thank you!"

Kakashi didn't bother with Obito's stubbornness at all.

He was now preoccupied with the strange thing about the old lady next to him.

The two men, one on each side, helped the old man walk slowly forward, seemingly doing a good deed. In reality, Kakashi had secretly mobilized all his senses to "investigate" the old man.

Kakashi decided to just test the waters!

He slowed his pace, pretending to match the old lady's rhythm, but actually quietly adjusted the position of his right hand that was supporting the old lady, placing his palm on her forearm.

In this way, he can clearly perceive the hardness and strength of the old man's arm muscles.

"Young people, I'm a slow walker, I'm making you late for school..." The old lady seemed a little apologetic as she moved along.

"No problem, don't worry, we'll make it in time," Kakashi quickly replied politely, maintaining a friendly smile on his face.

But at the same time, he had secretly applied a little force to the old man's arm.

He tightened his grip slightly, carefully feeling the sensation in his palm.

What he touched should have been the loose, thin muscles of a seventy or eighty-year-old, but what made Kakashi's pupils shrink was—

The arm he touched was surprisingly muscular, with strong bones and great elasticity!

Kakashi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately increased his strength, his fingertips digging slightly into the old man's sleeve.

Even so, the old lady in front of him remained calm and her breathing was steady, as if she had not felt his exertion at all!

Kakashi remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was experiencing a storm of emotions.

No one over seventy years old could possibly have such physical strength!

As people age, muscles inevitably become loose and atrophy, bones become brittle and weak, and strength declines significantly.

The arm he was touching at that moment clearly contained the same muscle tension and bone hardness as a young man!

A chilling glint flashed deep within Kakashi's eyes: The answer is already obvious!

[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +500!]

Kakashi paused abruptly, stopping in his tracks.

At the same time, he released the old man's arm with his right hand, leaned back slightly, and quickly reached into his ninja tool bag with his left hand to grasp the kunai.

"Huh? Kakashi, what's wrong with you...?"

Obito noticed that he had suddenly stopped while supporting Kakashi, and looked puzzled, turning his head as if to say something.

However, before he could finish speaking, he saw a cold light flash like lightning as it struck the old lady beside him!

Stab it--!

Chapter 177 Nagato: This dream is too real

In the audience, Naruto, Sasuke, and Hiruzen Sarutobi were present today.

Three pairs of eyes were fixed on the huge screen in front of them, and each person's face was filled with shock and confusion.

"Huh? What's wrong with Kakashi-sensei?!" Naruto jumped up from his seat, his eyes wide with disbelief.

[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +500!]

Hiruzen Sarutobi was also completely bewildered, and even the well-informed Hokage was somewhat unable to react at this moment.

Sasuke was equally confused.

He stared blankly at the old woman lying on the ground on the screen, then looked at Kakashi who had suddenly made his move.

Why would Kakashi suddenly attack an old woman who was completely defenseless?

“This doesn’t make any sense at all…” Sasuke frowned.

In his mind, Kakashi-sensei was not the kind of person who would randomly hurt innocent people, especially when the target was an old woman who looked unarmed.

In contrast, although Hiruzen Sarutobi was equally surprised, his expression quickly calmed down.

He stared intently at the scene on the screen, recalling Kakashi's past character and style, and guessed in a deep voice, "It seems that Kakashi has discovered something."

"What did you discover?" Sasuke was taken aback and turned to look at the Hokage. "Hokage-sama, are you saying... there's something wrong with that old lady?"

Sarutobi nodded slowly, his sharp gaze never leaving the screen for a moment.

"Kakashi is not an impulsive person. There must be a reason why he suddenly made a move."

"Could it be that……"

……

Inside the VIP box.

Obito sat on the sofa, staring at the screen, his mind filled with doubt and surprise: "What is Kakashi doing? What's wrong with him?!"

He narrowed his one eye slightly, and he had a rough idea of ​​what Kakashi was trying to do at this moment.

In his dream, he had seen two identical old women!

He suspected that the two elderly women with questionable identities were some kind of transformation technique or disguise, and the biggest suspect was the elusive White Zetsu!

"Could it be..."

Obito's pupils contracted; he had even gone out of his way to subtly probe Black Zetsu about this matter.

However, Black Zetsu simply smiled and brushed it off, leaving him without a definite answer.
