Naruto Dream Fulfillment Master

Naruto muttered in a low voice.

Even if Kakashi-sensei lying down and slacking off is a bit outrageous, it shouldn't have made this guy so angry, right?

"What a lunatic..."

Sakura muttered something under her breath, then turned her head away dejectedly, no longer wanting to provoke Obito.

on the screen.

After a short rest, Kakashi and Rin did not linger and quickly got back to work.

It turned out that Rin was still worried about Obito, who was carrying out three missions alone, and what had happened to him.

She glanced nervously at Kakashi, then finally mustered her courage and gently tugged at the boy's sleeve: "Kakashi, shall we go check on Obito? I'm a little worried about him..."

Kakashi lazily opened one eye and waved his hand, saying, "No need, right? Obito said he doesn't need help, he can handle it himself, and told us not to follow him. He'll definitely be fine."

He said it like that, but he seemed a little guilty.

After all, it's a bit unreasonable to push all the tasks onto your teammates and slack off yourself.

However, Lin was clearly not at ease.

Her delicate brows furrowed slightly, and she twisted the hem of her dress in front of her chest, her voice filled with worry: "But... what if something unexpected happens? Having to do three tasks at once, we're bound to be short-handed. He's so tired all by himself, what if he makes a mistake? Shall we go help him?"

Kakashi turned to look at the girl.

Lin looked at him pitifully, her watery eyes filled with worry and pleading.

Kakashi felt a slight softening in his heart as he was gazed upon by such sincere eyes.

He scratched his head, his tone softening: "Uh... okay, since you put it that way, let's go take a look."

Upon hearing this, Lin immediately smiled and nodded with relief, "Mm!"

She stood up gracefully from the ground, not forgetting to turn back and say, "Kakashi, get up quickly, let's go find Obito together!"

"I'm coming."

Kakashi smiled helplessly, patted his pants, and stood up.

Unable to resist Rin's request, Kakashi finally relented and agreed to go with her to find the person.

in the audience.

Obito took in this scene, and his heartstrings trembled violently.

His previously tense fists relaxed slightly, and the trembling in his fingertips gradually stopped.

“Rin…” Obito murmured softly, a hint of moisture welling up in his eyes beneath the mask.

He knew it.

Rin is definitely not like that bastard Kakashi!

Rin still cares most about herself and is always worried about herself. Even though Kakashi said she didn't need help, she still insisted on going to find me...

At that moment, a warm feeling welled up in Obito's heart. All his anger vanished in the face of the girl's concern, leaving only deep emotion.

[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Obito have been detected! Emotional value +400!]

"Lin is so gentle..."

Obito's eyes were fixed on the screen.

The slender figure jogged ahead of Kakashi, her face full of worry.

His heart softened involuntarily.

on the screen.

Kakashi and Rin found Obito's location without much effort.

From afar, they could see at the end of the alley at the village entrance that Otto was standing in front of a kind old lady, bowing repeatedly to express his gratitude.

"Thank you so much! Thank you so much!" The young Obito wiped the sweat from his brow, bowed deeply to the white-haired old woman in front of him, his face full of gratitude. "If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't know where to go to look!"

"Don't mention it, don't mention it, child."

The old woman smiled kindly, waving her hand affectionately at the black-haired boy in front of her. "I happen to have nothing to do, so I'll help you look for it. You've helped me so many times before, and this is only the first time I've helped you."

Obito shook his head repeatedly: "I was just doing what I was supposed to do. Anyway, you've really gone to a lot of trouble today!"

He was about to bow again when the old lady quickly stopped him and stuffed a bulging cloth bag into his arms.

"Oh, don't be so formal!" The old lady patted Otto's arm with a smile. "Here, this is a snack that Grandma specially prepared for you. Take it and have some to tide you over on the way. I saw how hard you were running around earlier, and you even helped me clear away the dead branches at the gate of the yard. Thank you so much!"

At that moment, Kakashi and Rin witnessed this scene.

Kakashi stood at the alley entrance, arms crossed, and nodded slightly.

He wasn't surprised that Obito had an appearance that was so appealing to older people.

Back then, Obito alone took care of all the odd jobs in Konoha in just a few days.

The D-level missions in the Konoha Mission Center were cleared out.

Kakashi was already used to it.

However, Rin, who was standing to the side, was so shocked that her eyes widened and she covered her mouth with a soft gasp: "Oh my god... Obito really completed the mission all by himself!"

She was initially worried that Obito wouldn't be able to handle it, but it seems that not only is Obito not having any problems, but things are progressing much more smoothly than expected.

Thinking of this, Lin's face lit up with a smile of surprise and joy.

Rin couldn't help but raise her arm and wave it forcefully forward, calling out in a clear voice, "Obito! Obito, we're here!"

The familiar girl's voice reached his ears from afar. Obito was stunned for a moment, then turned around abruptly: "Huh?!"

When he saw Rin and Kakashi running towards him from a distance, he was first stunned, then his face lit up with joy, "Rin! Kakashi!"

He waved excitedly in response, all his previous fatigue gone.

They actually came all the way to find me?

This realization warmed Obito's heart, and a smile involuntarily spread across his face.

"Hey! I'm here!" Obito raised his arm high, waved it a few times, and then eagerly ran towards the two of them.

He jogged up to Rin and Kakashi, his steps so hurried he almost tripped.

After regaining his footing, Obito quickly put on a calm demeanor, smugly adjusted his goggles, cleared his throat, and announced the good news: "Rin! Kakashi! You're here!"

The boy raised his eyebrows, a look of pride on his face. "I have good news for you—I've already completed two missions!"

Upon hearing Obito announce the results, Rin's eyes widened in surprise: "Really? Obito, you're amazing! You completed two missions so quickly!"

She smiled radiantly and praised him generously, her voice full of admiration and respect.

When Obito was praised to his face by the girl he liked, he immediately felt his face burning.

He scratched his head, coughed a little embarrassedly, and to hide the blush on his face, he simply struck a cool pose: "Hehe, this is all thanks to the help of the old ladies in the village, otherwise it wouldn't have gone so smoothly..."

He couldn't hide his pride halfway through his sentence.

As Obito spoke, he shook the bulging cloth bag in his arms, his nose slightly upturned: "Look! The old ladies think I've worked hard on my mission, so they specially prepared a whole bunch of snacks for me!"

He grinned and held up the bag to show off. The bag was open, and you could vaguely see that it was filled with pancakes, tea cakes and other snacks. A sweet aroma wafted out with the wind.

Lin blinked and exclaimed sincerely, "Wow—that's amazing! Obito, you're really popular among the grandmothers!"

At this point, she couldn't help but chuckle, saying half-jokingly and half-seriously, "Looks like your daily lateness isn't all for nothing! At least you're so popular!"

"Hehe!" Obito scratched his head and chuckled twice.

When Lin teased him, he was not embarrassed at all. Instead, he proudly raised his chin, looking quite smug.

At that moment, Obito turned around, raised his chin towards Kakashi, and asked provocatively, "So, Kakashi! Are you convinced now?"

Kakashi was slightly taken aback, then shook his head with a wry smile, raising his hands in a gesture of surrender: "I give up, I give up, you Obito are the best! I can't compare to you!"

"Hahahaha!"

Seeing Kakashi finally admit defeat, Obito felt a surge of pride and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

A hearty laugh echoed through the alley, startling several small birds on the nearby treetops into taking flight.

Rin was also infected by Obito's smile, and covered her mouth to giggle, her eyes curving into two crescent moons.

Looking at his two happy companions, Kakashi's smile gradually faded, and his expression slowly calmed down.

Obito's sunny and cheerful smile was reflected in Kakashi's dark pupils, which inexplicably made Kakashi's heart ache.

He silently watched the young Obito.

At that moment, he was so enthusiastic about helping others, so positive and optimistic, radiating energy and kindness.

But who could have imagined that Obito in real life would turn out like that...

Kakashi felt a slight tightness in his nose, and a wave of indescribable sorrow and regret washed over him, with self-reproach surging through his heart.

He lowered his eyelids, his expression somber, and suddenly fell silent.

[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]

"Kakashi?" Rin, who was smiling, quickly noticed Kakashi's unusual behavior.

Seeing him suddenly fall silent and seem lost in thought, with a somewhat sad expression, she couldn't help but tilt her head with concern and whisper, "What's wrong?"

Kakashi snapped out of his daze upon hearing the sound, hurriedly adjusting his expression and forcing back a relaxed smile: "Ah, it's nothing."

Obito blinked and revealed a sly, mischievous smile.

His eyes darted around, and he suddenly leaned in close to Kakashi, staring intently at his face: "Hey, Kakashi, why are you making that face? Feeling guilty? Hehe, you'd better confess—"

Obito raised his eyebrows mischievously, "How many tasks did you do by yourself this morning?"

Kakashi was forced to take a half-step back, instinctively looking away: "Uh-well~"
