Chapter 1247 - Ch.1247 Bait

For space-time dojutsu like 'Kamui', as long as it hit the target's body, the target had almost no possibility of being spared.

Even someone as strong as the Fourth Hokage, after being hit by Obito's 'Kamui' back then, relied on 'Flying Thunder God Technique', which also possessed space-time capability, to escape. So from tens to hundreds of meters away, even in 'Kurama Sage Mode' inside the big pit, Naruto had no way to rely on his own ability to break free from 'Kamui's adsorption.

Watching Naruto's legs about to be twisted off by Obito's 'Kamui' vortex.

Suddenly, a figure appeared behind Obito and swung a scythe down fiercely at him.

Swish...

Instantly, Obito stumbled, nearly falling from the tree.

Subsequently, he felt very weak physically, as if his chakra was sucked away by something.

And this blow also interrupted his 'Kamui', giving Naruto in the distant deep pit a chance to breathe.

Obito was somewhat annoyed: "Who!"

At this time, figures rushed out from the forest one after another, surrounding Obito in the center.

Undoubtedly, these figures were none other than the Nine Masked Beasts summoned by Menma through 'Summoning Technique: Nine Masked Beasts'.

The one who drew away Obito's chakra with a scythe just now and interrupted Obito's 'Kamui' was exactly the 'Reaper' among the Nine Masked Beasts that could absorb chakra.

Finally, Menma appeared in front of Obito in spirit form, chuckling lightly: "Thought your Akatsuki would lay some ambush, didn't expect just you two pieces of trash!"

Obito's face darkened.

Through intelligence gathered recently, he knew Naruto had split a negative personality due to deviation in cultivation.

He originally thought this would become a weakness of Naruto. Unexpectedly, Naruto's negative personality actually cooperated with the main body, fishing here, luring him out!

Zetsu rushed out at this time, landing beside Obito: "Sorry, this guy is a spirit body, I didn't discover him in advance!"

The smile on Menma's face became wider: "Is Dark Akatsuki only left with you trash?"

"Brat!"

Obito's face was somewhat embarrassed.

Zetsu was also full of surprise.

He had tried to overestimate Naruto before. With Hiruko taking action, he still instigated Obito to sneak attack. Unexpectedly, he still underestimated Naruto in the end.

Swish...

Naruto rushed over from the pit at this time, intercepting Obito and Zetsu one after another with Menma: "Menma, he is that guy in the Akatsuki who masters space-time dojutsu!"

Menma curled his lips: "Idiot, need you to remind me?"

Naruto said: "Granny Tsunade suspects they are the commanders behind Dark Akatsuki second only to Nagato. As long as we catch them, no need to worry about intelligence!"

Menma smiled and said: "That depends on whether they can take a beating!"

Zetsu said: "We seem to be looked down upon!"

"Tch!"

Obito spat, raising his arms to prepare hand seals.

Besides 'Kamui', having transplanted White Zetsu cells, he also mastered 'Wood Release'. Coupled with various Fire Release of the Uchiha clan, his combat power was not weak.

Whoosh...

Just then, an ink-colored light ball descended from the sky!

"That is!?"

Obito and Zetsu looked up together.

Naruto's face changed, hurriedly activating Body Flicker Technique to retreat backwards, because he was very familiar with that ink-colored light ball. It was exactly Menma's 'Great Spiraling Ring'!

Undoubtedly, Menma had made up his mind from the beginning to wait for the rabbit by the tree. Halfway through, he separated from Naruto's body, wanting to use Naruto as bait to lure out the key figures of the Akatsuki organization.

After luring out Obito and Zetsu, he secretly activated 'Great Spiraling Ring' while showing up in spirit form to distract Obito and Zetsu.

Because he knew very well that Obito and Zetsu were two people in 'Dark Akatsuki' who were very good at escaping. Ordinary attacks, even if defeating them, mostly couldn't keep them. So he chose 'Great Spiraling Ring', a killing move of carpet bombing level.

And he himself was a spirit body, fearless of 'Great Spiraling Ring's aftermath. So he proactively showed up to provoke. Not only him, even the Nine Masked Beasts he summoned were smoke bombs to cover 'Great Spiraling Ring'.

Rumble...

Soon, accompanied by a soaring firelight, the entire forest seemed to be swallowed by this firelight, emitting a deafening roar. Even Konoha Village tens of miles away was affected by the explosion, the ground shaking violently!

Konoha Village.

Whether Tsunade and Jiraiya on Konoha's side, or Sasori, Deidara, Ranmaru, Kakuzu, Hidan, Juzo Biwa on Akatsuki's side, all looked towards the direction of the forest at this moment.

Deidara was even more amazed: "What a magnificent explosion!"

Subsequently, everyone realized a major change occurred there, only temporarily no one was sure which side this change favored!

On the forest battlefield.

The originally lush forest was now razed to the ground by Menma's 'Great Spiraling Ring' just now.

Menma floated in the air, staring fixedly at the smoke and dust below.

The blow just now was enough to destroy an area of a dozen miles. Unless the opponent could instantly activate space-time dojutsu, otherwise, they would inevitably be affected by his 'Great Spiraling Ring'.

Naruto in the distance, affected by 'Great Spiraling Ring', impacted by huge shockwaves and nearly exiting 'Kurama Sage Mode', was an example.

Even Naruto, who was far away and in 'Kurama Sage Mode', couldn't completely escape the range of his 'Great Spiraling Ring', let alone others.

Soon, the smoke and dust below dispersed a bit.

Menma saw Hiruko who was smashed into the deep pit by Naruto's 'Sage Art: Great Ball Rasenrengan' before.

At this time, Hiruko looked very miserable. Both arms were broken, face and chest covered with scars. If not for being inside the pit receiving smaller shockwaves, he would probably have died under Menma's 'Great Spiraling Ring' just now.

With just a glance, Menma withdrew his gaze.

A mere Hiruko was simply not put in his eyes. What he wanted to catch this time were Obito and Zetsu hiding behind the scenes of Dark Akatsuki.

Whoosh...

A gust of wind blew past, dispersing the smoke and dust shrouding the core area of the battlefield.

The first thing that came into Menma's view was a huge semi-circular wooden wall. It was tightly buckled on the ground, but many damages appeared on the top of the wooden wall. Seen from the air, it looked like a smashed upside-down wooden bowl.

Inside the wooden wall, Obito held his injured left arm panting heavily.

And not far from the wooden wall, Zetsu was half buried in the soil, incredibly miserable.

Before the explosion, he had already activated 'Mayfly' to dive underground. Only he didn't expect Menma's 'Great Spiraling Ring' to be so powerful. Diving seven or eight meters underground didn't completely dodge it.

In the air.

Looking at all this below, Menma grinned: "Heh, good that you're not dead!"
