Chapter 237 Obito VS Nishikawa Tetsu
Chapter 237 Obito VS Nishikawa Tetsu
Nishikawa Tetsu led the three to the testing area of the research institute.
"Are you ready?"
Nishikawa Tetsu stood behind the control panel and pressed a button.
In the center of the field, several wooden dummy-like figures that could not only move but also launch rubber bullets rose up.
These wooden dummy figures have undergone special treatment and carry biosignals.
"call……"
Kakashi took a deep breath and gripped his right wrist with his left hand.
"Chidori!"
The piercing bird calls rang out again, and lightning illuminated the somewhat dim basement.
This time, through his goggles, Kakashi could clearly see the movement of the wooden dummy in front of him, and even the tiny dust particles in the air were marked.
"Look carefully!"
"boom!"
Kakashi transformed into lightning and charged out.
Just as he was about to hit the first obstacle, a red warning box popped up on his goggles. Kakashi instinctively shifted his body to the side, smoothly bypassing the obstacle, and plunged his Lightning Blade into the target's chest.
"Bang!"
The wooden dummy exploded.
Then came the second, and the third.
Although the movements were still a bit clumsy, the indomitable spirit had been fully displayed.
"We did it!" Lin clapped happily.
"Tch... They actually did it." Obito curled his lip, a hint of sourness in his voice. "It's just because of those glasses."
Kakashi stopped in his tracks, and the lightning in his hand dissipated.
He took off his goggles, looked at the slightly hot instrument in his hand, and a complex emotion flashed in his eyes.
"I did see it clearly, but..."
Kakashi looked at Nishikawa Tetsuya, his brows furrowing slightly.
"This device has a delay, albeit a very short one, but at such high speeds, it still feels somewhat unnatural. Also, wearing it narrows your field of vision."
"There's nothing we can do; this is the current limit of technology."
Nishikawa Tetsu walked over and took back the goggles.
"From the sensor processing signals and transmitting images to your brain receiving them, there's bound to be a physical delay. That's enough for a Chunin's fight, but for your ninjutsu..."
Nishikawa Tetsu shook his head.
"This is just a stopgap measure; it can only serve as training equipment."
He looked at Kakashi and said meaningfully:
"Kakashi, it's very difficult to reach the pinnacle of mastering that technique by relying on external aids."
"You still have to rely on your own eyes and train hard."
Kakashi subconsciously touched his eyes.
"But before that, here are your goggles. Use them to practice your skills, at least don't throw your Raikiri at your teammates' feet again."
On the way to the testing area, Nishikawa Tetsu had already heard Obito complain.
Kakashi took the goggles and nodded solemnly: "Thank you."
Obito, standing to the side, looked at the high-tech goggles in Kakashi's hand, then touched the ordinary goggles on his own forehead, and suddenly felt that his equipment was a bit shabby.
"Hey, Nishikawa-senpai!"
Obito leaned closer, his face full of flattery: "Could you get me a pair too? I want these glasses that emit red light!"
"you?"
Nishikawa Tetsu glanced at him and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Obito, what you need is not dynamic visual capture."
"What you need is... this thing."
Nishikawa Tetsu casually picked up an ordinary magnifying glass and handed it to him.
"What is this?" Obito was bewildered.
"To make sure you see the road clearly, so you don't fall into the pit again."
"..."
"Nishikawa Tetsu! I...I'll fight you to the death!!!"
Obito Uchiha let out a furious roar, like a calf whose tail had been stepped on, and pounced on Nishikawa Tetsu with bared teeth and claws.
"Calm down, Obito!" Nohara Rin quickly reached out to pull him back, but couldn't.
Nishikawa Tetsu stood still, not moving an inch. He merely raised his left hand slightly, and his arm guard lit up.
"Sizzle—"
An invisible magnetic repulsive field instantly opened up.
At this moment, the metal zipper on Obito's tracksuit, the iron plate on his headband, and even the shuriken in his ninja tool bag all seemed to become the force that was pushing him backward.
"Huh? Huh?!"
Obito's charging posture instantly changed, as if he had crashed into an invisible spring wall. He flailed his arms and legs in the air a few times, and then flew backward in an extremely inelegant manner, landing hard on his backside.
"It hurts, it hurts..."
Obito rubbed his backside, staring at Nishikawa Tetsu with disbelief: "You...you cheated! What kind of ninjutsu is that?!"
"This is definitely not ninjutsu, it's science."
Nishikawa Tetsu withdrew his hand, and the light on the arm guard went out. He looked at Obito, who was sitting on the ground sulking, shook his head helplessly, and casually tossed the magnifying glass back onto the table.
Kakashi shook his head; Obito really couldn't tell the difference between the two kings.
"I'm sorry, my team members were rude."
"Damn it, Kakashi, why are you dragging me along? I can stand up by myself!!!"
He dragged Obito away from where he was sitting on the ground, and Rin quickly bowed to apologize before following the two of them.
The testing area returned to silence.
Nishikawa Tetsu watched the four figures disappear into the distance and shook his head helplessly.
"What an energetic young person."
He tidied up the clutter on the lab bench, turned off the lights in the testing area, and turned to walk towards his office in the administration building.
It was dusk, and the corridors of the research institute were empty except for the sounds of instruments running.
When Nishikawa Tetsu walked to the sky bridge connecting Building B and Building C, he suddenly paused.
In the shadows ahead, a person is leaning against something.
Pale skin, long black hair, and vertical pupils that shimmered with a golden light in the dim light.
Orochimaru.
"The Dean?"
Nishikawa Tetsuya was somewhat surprised: "Uchiha Obito has already left."
His unspoken message was: You should go and stake out the location!
Orochimaru stuck out his long tongue, licked his lips, and let out a hoarse chuckle.
"I know."
He straightened up, walked to the railing, and looked at the three people making a fuss below the research institute building.
"That amazing thing has been too quiet lately."
"Hmm?" Nishikawa Tetsu walked to his side.
"That white thing hasn't appeared even once in the past week."
Orochimaru tapped his fingers lightly on the railing.
"It seemed unusually cautious, or perhaps it noticed my gaze."
"so?"
"So, I'm considering a different strategy."
Orochimaru turned his head, his golden eyes fixed on Nishikawa Tetsu.
"Instead of going through the trouble of staking out outside, we might as well just bring that brat into the research institute."
"Uchiha Obito? Recruit him?" Nishikawa Tetsu was taken aback.
"That's right."
Orochimaru said matter-of-factly:
"Give him a job, as long as he stays under my watch..."
Orochimaru grinned:
"If White Zetsu follows me in, I'll spot him immediately."
"This is both convenient and allows for close-up research into the physique of the Uchiha clan, killing two birds with one stone."
Orochimaru is still somewhat curious about the Mangekyou Sharingan, and the Mangekyou Sharingan abilities demonstrated by Fugaku in his battle with the Eight-Tails have caught his attention.
Upon hearing this, Nishikawa Tetsu's lips twitched involuntarily.
Let Obito enter the research institute?
The image of Obito's clumsy hands and feet instantly flashed into his mind.
If you accidentally knock over a test tube today, you might press a button you shouldn't have tomorrow out of curiosity.
Nishikawa Tetsu shrugged: "Although you have the authority to recruit, I don't recommend that you recruit Obito."
"Why?" Orochimaru frowned. "Doesn't this maximize efficiency?"
"First of all, you haven't seen the destructive power of that kid Obito."
Nishikawa Tetsu listed them off on his fingers:
"If I let him in, I'm afraid he'll blow up the research institute before I even catch the White Zetsu."
Secondly…
Nishikawa Tetsu pointed to the invisible chakra barriers surrounding the research institute.
"Lord Orochimaru, are you overconfident in the security level here, or underconfident?"
"You designed the barrier here yourself. Although that Black and White Absolute is insidious, it's not stupid."
"If Obito were to enter the research institute, I believe it would absolutely not come in; it would simply wait outside."
"The reason a lure is lure is because it has to be on a hook, not locked in a safe."
Nishikawa Tetsu looked at Orochimaru and shrugged.
"Only by keeping him in the status quo, running around outside and revealing his weaknesses, will the rats hiding in the ditches be unable to resist peeking out."
Orochimaru remained silent for a moment, his golden pupils slightly contracting.
"Tsk."
He clicked his tongue in displeasure.
"You're right. You can't catch fish in places that are too safe."
Orochimaru turned around and walked back towards the laboratory, his back view showing a hint of dejection.
"This is such a hassle."
