Chapter 162 The Difficulty of Distinguishing Reality from Illusion
"Whoosh—whoosh—"
Heavy breathing filled my ears, making all other sounds sound distorted.
It felt like an invisible hand was gripping my chest, my heart was pounding against my ribs, and I was in waves of excruciating pain in my chest.
My lungs were contracting violently, burning as if they were about to explode, like being pricked by needles.
The trees on both sides rushed past, their thick trunks forming a blurry, dark green barrier in the field of vision.
The leaves brushed against my cheek, leaving a burning sting.
Obito stared intently ahead, his feet never stopping as he ran forward at top speed.
That light, which kept expanding through the gaps in the tree shadows, was the only light of salvation in his heart at that moment.
Finally, he reached the edge of the forest, leaped into the air, and stepped across the boundary between light and darkness.
But the next second, his breath caught in his throat, and his pupils shrank to pinpoints.
Not far ahead, Kakashi raised his right hand high, trailing blinding lightning, and thrust it heavily into Rin's chest.
"No----"
Obito let out a miserable howl, and his body seemed to teleport across the distance between the two places. With a flick of his right arm, he pierced through Rin's chest with a "thud," lifting her body up and pointing it diagonally towards the sky like a javelin.
Blood gushed down like a fountain, splashing directly onto Obito's face and body.
"Obito————"
Rin bled from all seven orifices, her eyes filled with tears, and she looked down at Obito with pained eyes.
Strangely, at this moment, Obito, looking at Rin's tragic death, felt a blank in his mind and did not experience the expected pain.
"It's all fake, it's just a dream," Obito muttered to himself.
As Obito murmured, the surrounding space shattered with a deafening roar, and a familiar small room reappeared before him.
"I knew it, it was just a dream, a trick that Ann played on me."
"I could never hurt Lin, never!"
Obito muttered to himself, curling his body up even more.
"Squeak!"
The door opened with a knock, and someone came in.
Obito didn't look up, still immersed in his own world.
"Obito————"
A trembling voice suddenly rang in his ears, causing Obito's body to stiffen instantly, and his heart seemed to stop beating.
"Obito, Lord An sent me to see you. He said he wants to cheer you up because he has a mission to give you later."
"Rin!" Obito looked up excitedly and saw Rin standing timidly in front of the bed, looking at him with worried eyes.
"Lin, you're alright!"
"Yes, it was Lord An who saved me."
"Great!" Obito quickly rolled off the bed and hugged Rin tightly.
"Lin, let's run away right now!"
"Get out of here!"
"To hell with that bastard An!"
"Let's find a remote village and live in seclusion, never to concern ourselves with the affairs of the ninja world again!"
These words had been brewing in Obito's heart for who knows how long, and now that he finally had the chance to speak them out, they came out like machine gun fire, rattling incessantly.
But his enthusiasm was met with Lin's cold shoulder, and Lin simply shook her head.
"No, that won't work!"
"Obito, Lord An still has things for you to do, how can you run away?"
"What?!" Obito was immediately shocked and hurriedly examined Rin's body carefully. "Rin, are you being controlled by that bastard An's genjutsu? How could you say such a thing?"
"She wasn't under the influence of illusion magic!" Rin said leisurely. "The reason she wouldn't go with Obito is because she's already pregnant with Lord An's child!"
As she spoke, Lin pulled her coat aside, revealing her naked body below.
Under the light, Obito was surprised to find that Rin's belly was already round and swollen, clearly indicating that she was ten months pregnant.
"No!!!!!!!!!"
Obito screamed and sat up, panting heavily.
Still shaken, he looked around and saw that the familiar room was empty except for him. He breathed a sigh of relief and cursed angrily, "That bastard Uchiha An!"
"I'm tormented by these disgusting nightmares every day!"
"We must rescue Lin from him as soon as possible!"
The door opened again, and another person came in.
Obito shuddered in fright, but when he looked up again, he saw that it was Zetsu who had entered, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
"What's wrong with you?" Jue looked at him strangely.
"No, it's nothing." Obito wiped the expression off his face and turned his head to the side with a cold expression.
"Oh, I was going to tell you some good news! But it seems you're not very interested!"
"Good news?" Obito's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly asked, "What good news?"
"I've located Lin and rescued her; she's outside now."
"Rin!" Obito was overjoyed and jumped out of bed. He rushed out the door in a few steps and saw Rin standing outside the door, smiling sweetly at him.
"Lin, I'm so glad you're alright!"
Obito rushed over and hugged Rin, tears streaming down his face.
"Obito—" Rin reached out and hugged Obito, smiling as she said, "Obito, I also have some good news to tell you!"
"What good news?" Obito smiled and wiped away his tears, looking at Rin with hope. But Rin smiled slightly, pulled her coat aside, revealing her naked body and her familiar round belly.
"Congratulations, Obito, you're going to be an uncle!"
"I'm now pregnant with Lord An's child, and I'll be carrying on the Uchiha clan's lineage!"
Obito's face froze, and he was completely stunned.
After a moment of silence, veins bulged on Obito's forehead, and with a swing of his right arm, he stabbed "Rin" right through the heart.
"This is another fucking nightmare!"
Obito swung his blood-stained right arm, threw the heavily injured "Rin" to the ground, and roared loudly to the sky.
"Damn it!"
"Uchiha An!"
"How long are you going to keep playing me for a fool?!"
With his roar, the surrounding space shattered once more, and he saw the familiar bedroom again.
As soon as the door opened, another person pushed it open and came in.
"Obito—" Rin's trembling voice came from the doorway again.
"Damn it!"
"I won't fall for your tricks again!"
Before Rin could even speak, Obito pounced on her, slashing his right arm and piercing her heart.
Sure enough, the surrounding space shattered again, and he saw the familiar bedroom once more.
The door opened with a knock, and Bai Jue pushed it open and came in.
"You bastard, die!"
Obito roared and charged toward White Zetsu.
"What the hell are you doing?!"
White Zetsu dodged Obito's attack in a sorry state, trying to wake Obito up, but Obito was like a madman and wouldn't listen to him at all.
Left with no other option, he angrily engaged Obito in a fight.
After fighting for quite some time, Obito finally confirmed that it wasn't Zetsu who had come in, but just White Zetsu, and that "Rin" hadn't been brought along, nor was it the character from his nightmare.
And he truly woke up from his dream.
Obito then stopped, put his hands on his head, and paced back and forth angrily, howling in impotent rage.
He knew very well that without the Mangekyou Sharingan, he was completely unable to resist the effects of Uchiha An's right eye's eye technique.
Now, he finds it increasingly difficult to distinguish between reality and illusion.
