The Sin of Releasing Nine-Tails in Konoha

Uchiha Obito was sitting in his chair in the courtroom with cold sweat on his back. His mind was running at high speed, thinking of a way to justify his actions, but...

How is he supposed to justify throwing a whole village into a civil war?

Revenge? Although it was partly as revenge for Rin's death, that obviously isn't a good reason.

'Ah, I know! Just throw the fault to the mental problems of the Uchiha clan.

I just hope my acting can convince him.'

Bowing his head deeply, he organized the words in his mind and started talking.

"Your majesty!

After Rin's death, everything is dark. The world is hell for me, ITS HELL! I just want everyone to be happy, your majesty should know of my plan.

A world without Rin is fake! A world without Rin should not exist at all!"

Originally Obito was still acting but he got more and more emotional as he spoke, just pouring out his true feelings. For him, this world is true hell. He does not want to exist in a world where Rin is not there.

Neji observed Obito, who seems to be having a mental breakdown and sighed. As expected of one of the biggest Simps in Anime History.

Kakashi was looking at his friend with guilt. He didn't protect Rin well, it's all his fault. And now even his friend has gone completely insane.

"So the death of one girl is the reason for you to commit so many heavy sins? If you feel the world is hell because of her death, then have you ever thought about how many people in Kirigakure lost their loved ones due to your actions?

Can you imagine the pain a parent feels if he can't feed his own child? Can you imagine the pain a student feels if he has to kill his own friends for something as simple as graduating from school?

HOW DARE YOU JUSTIFY THE SUFFERING OF THESE PEOPLE WITH THE DEATH OF ONE GIRL?

Also, don't try to fool anyone with your mental health. Although you are indeed mentally unstable, you are still able to think clearly and your current state is due to your own weak mind.

The helper you called, Hatake Kakashi has lost all his loved ones one by one and never strayed from the right path. His affection towards you and Rin was not much lower than yours. Even if he was depressed enough to commit suicide, even if the world was only grey in his eyes, he never lost himself as you did. Even now he is willing to control his depression so that he can look after the son of his teacher and one of the few people left of your clan.

Being weak-minded does not justify your sins.

I declare your defense as not valid!"

In the end, Neji hit the table with his hammer again.

'It's really difficult to sound very righteous if you don't actually care. Thank god I have the system to assist me.'

To the ears of all listeners, his speech seems to contain infinite righteousness. He seems to genuinely care about this world and its inhabitants. Even if he is a God, he will become emotional due to the suffering of the people.

Even Naruto, who had difficulty completely understanding the situation was touched by his speech. He is very kind in his heart, he doesn't want other people to suffer, even if he doesn't personally know it makes him feel sympathetic and unbearable to hear about their situation.

'If I was there, I would surely convince them to never give up, Dattebayo!'

Obito, who knew that his plan had failed, looked at Kakashi complicatedly.

'Kakashi, although I will never forgive you, I have to admit you were always better than me.'

Being reminded of his dark memories Kakashi's face turned sad for a moment, but he calmed down quickly. Now is not the time to grieve, he has to think of a way to redeem Obito.

Neji saw Kakashi's expression and understood what he is thinking. Although Kakashi will indeed forgive Obito for almost anything, there are still some things that are taboo to him in his heart. Neji doesn't fully understand why Obito would call in Kakashi as a helper, he should know that he killed Minato and Kushina that day. No matter how much affection Kakashi has for him, this hurdle is very hard to overcome without a Naruto who is utilizing Talk-no-Jutsu to its fullest.

So, what would happen if Kakashi found out the truth about the night of Nine-tails? Will he still unconditionally support Obito or will he turn against him?

'Let's find out.'

"The second sin of yours I will talk about today is the attack on Konoha with the Nine-tails."

As soon as his words came out, the world was in an uproar. Everyone has more or less heard of what happened twelve years ago. Now it seems that this Obito is the one behind the scenes of this incident.

The face of Kakashi on the side became pale when he thought of the possibility of Obito doing such a thing.

'No! No way! Obito wouldn't do such a thing, it can't be!'

But a quick glance at Obito who was sitting with his head bowed and not defending made the denial in his mind weaker and weaker. He bit his lip until blood flooded into his mouth, his nails were already deeply embedded into his palms, but he paid no heed to it. His whole mind was in pain, unable to calm down.

Hokage office.

"The masked man. He is the fucking masked man!

He killed my wife and almost destroyed Konoha!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was furious, the loss of his wife was a great pain in his heart. Minato had told him before his death that the culprit behind the Nine-tails attack is a masked man with Mangekyo. He had been suspicious of Obito from the beginning of the trial and now it has been confirmed.

"Hokage-sama please calm down. The God of Justice will surely give the culprit the retribution he deserves."

Hiruzen heard the words of his subordinates and took a deep breath to calm down. He is right, Uchiha Obito has already been selected as the sinner and he will surely not escape the punishment he deserves.

Naruto's home.

Naruto was rolling on the ground holding his stomach. For some reason, there was a pain in his abdomen since earlier.

'What is this pain? And why do I feel such a piercing pain in my heart, when I hear about the Nine-tails attack?'

In the seal, Nine-tails was going berserk. Since the day Uchiha Madara manipulated him with Sharingan, it hates the Uchiha. The emergence of Uchiha Obito made it difficult for him to contain his hatred.

"DAMN YOU UCHIHA!" (Tobirama: Nine-tails is right!)
