Chapter 277 - Chapter 277: Newlyweds & A New Mission

The next morning.

Dawn gradually broke over the horizon.

The soft morning sunlight filtered through the gaps in the leaves, gently illuminating Obito's face.

He let out a faint murmur as he woke from his slumber.

Carefully, he moved his hand away from his wife's soft embrace, ensuring he didn't wake her.

With a blissful smile, he sat up and quietly made his way outside.

"Well then, time to prepare breakfast for Rin-chan."

With a flicker of Kamui, Obito appeared at a pastry shop.

After purchasing Rin's favorite treats, he used Kamui again and returned home in an instant.

"Mm…"

Rin stirred at the noise, her large eyes blinking sleepily.

She rubbed her eyes and asked curiously, "Obito-kun, why have you been getting up so early lately?"

"You used to love sleeping in. You always said, 'My body is made of iron, but my bed is a magnet…'"

Saying this, Rin suddenly recalled their school days.

Back then, she would often stop by Obito's house to pick him up for school, worried he'd be late again.

She smiled, her large eyes filled with warmth and nostalgia.

"Hehe, to think that clumsy little boy from back then has now become my husband."

Obito playfully pinched Rin's petite chest and grinned. "Of course, I wake up early to make breakfast for Rin-chan!"

Rin, feeling touched, immediately threw herself into Obito's arms, rubbing her small head against him affectionately.

"Mmm, I suddenly feel so happy, Obito-kun."

"I don't want to go to work today… I just want to stay snuggled up with you."

Obito gently patted Rin's smooth back. "Be good and get dressed first. You'll catch a cold like this."

"How about I talk to Konoha Hospital and get you a few months off?"

Rin shook her head. "No need. I'll be on maternity leave soon anyway."

"I want to use this time to clear up some of my pending work first."

Obito skillfully helped Rin get dressed and smiled. "Alright, alright, Rin-chan is the best."

"But don't push yourself too hard. If you feel unwell, you have to come home and rest, okay?"

Rin stretched lazily and held out her arms. "Yes, yes, I know~"

"Obito-kun, I'm hungry. Carry me to breakfast!"

Obito shook his head solemnly. "Incorrect command. Obito-bot failed to start."

Rin let out a small humph and playfully punched him, blushing slightly.

"O—Obito… dear, carry me!"

"As you command!"

Obito laughed and scooped Rin up into his arms, carrying her to the dining area.

After a sweet and loving breakfast together, Obito used Kamui once again to drop Rin off at the hospital.

"See you later, Rin-chan~"

"See you later, Obito-kun~"

Watching Rin disappear into the hospital, Obito sighed, reluctant to part from her.

Then, he decided to head to the bookstore to buy a cookbook and improve his culinary skills.

After all, he was now merely the Honorary Hokage and had no need to deal with the daily grind of the Hokage's office.

Just then, the system's sultry voice echoed in his mind.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host and his beloved on your wedding! Wishing you a lifetime of happiness!"

"A new main quest has been issued. Please check at your convenience."

Obito chuckled and responded in his mind, "Thanks, System-bro. I'll check it out now."

With that, he opened the system interface and looked at the new set of choices:

[Option 1: Talk-no-Jutsu Otsutsuki Isshiki and convert him to your side. Completion Reward: Divine Tree Sapling Coordinates + Supreme Secret Technique Pack *1.]

[Option 2: Severely injure Otsutsuki Isshiki's true body and turn him into an external avatar. Completion Reward: None (Advanced deduction applied as handling fee).]

[Option 3: Kill Otsutsuki Isshiki and completely destroy Kara. Completion Reward: Otsutsuki Isshiki's Source (Incomplete) + Detective Conan Gadget Pack *1.]

[Detective Conan Gadget Pack: May contain Conan's skateboard, Heiji's motorcycle, Amuro's sports car, Kaito Kid's glider, and other physics-defying detective gadgets.]

[Special Note: The mission has a two-year time limit. Failure to complete it within the timeframe will be considered an automatic failure.]

Scanning through the options, Obito immediately noticed something odd.

"System-bro, don't tell me you have hosts in the Detective Conan world too?"

The system remained oddly silent, as if feeling guilty.

Obito didn't press the matter.

Instead, he focused on analyzing the three choices before him.

"Talking-no-Jutsu Isshiki won't be easy. He's not like Kaguya, who had no choice but to betray the Otsutsuki Clan."

"Besides, that guy only cares about personal gain. I have nothing valuable enough to sway him."

In Isshiki's eyes, all of the chakra on this planet already belonged to him.

Trying to bribe him with 'his own property' would be utterly ridiculous.

Having ruled out Option 1, Obito directly asked the system, "System-bro, how much of Isshiki's strength would an external avatar retain?"

"And if I absorb the incomplete source, how much of his power would I gain?"

After a brief loading pause, the system responded swiftly.

"The external avatar retains Isshiki's full power and all Otsutsuki traits."

"If the host absorbs the incomplete source, he can achieve roughly two-thirds of Isshiki's strength in 'Karma' mode."

"This power boost stacks with the host's own abilities but does not grant Otsutsuki's special traits."

Hearing this, Obito furrowed his brows slightly.

"Each has its own advantages… One offers Otsutsuki traits, including the ability to use 'Karma' for reincarnation."

"The other provides a stackable boost. Even if it's only 60-70% of Isshiki's power, it's still enough to double my combat strength in the short term…"

As for the detective gadgets…

Forget it. Even if they were free, he wouldn't take them!

After careful consideration, Obito made his choice.

"Hah… System-bro, I choose Option 2."

System: "( 'ω' ) Roger that!"

Sigh…

Obito let out a long sigh.

Just when he had started to relax, that familiar sense of urgency returned.

"Living in this world, there's never a moment of peace…"

"Two years will pass in the blink of an eye. I need to start planning now!"

After a moment of contemplation, he decided that this matter required Madara's input.

Leaving a shadow clone behind, he set off for Madara's base.

...

At Madara's hideout.

A young man suddenly appeared, laughing wildly.

"Hahaha! Grandpa Madara, I have great news for you!"

"I, Uchiha Obito, am now the Fifth Hokage!"

Before the silent Madara could respond, a surge of blue chakra erupted nearby, cracking the ground beneath them.

A voice, filled with chilling disdain, rang out.

"Is this a joke? A mere Uchiha brat became Hokage?!"
