The sudden scene shocked everyone!
However, at the same time, as if fearing that one stab wasn't enough, the black-robed figure quickly withdrew the ninja sword and fiercely slashed at Obito's neck again!
But having succeeded with the first strike didn't guarantee success now.
Because from the mask on Obito's body, a pale white hand suddenly grew out, gripping the black-robed figure's ninja sword tightly, not letting go even as the blade pierced through the palm.
Seeing this, the black-robed figure was also very decisive.
He directly abandoned the ninja sword, and then on his palm, a brilliant blue sphere that was very familiar to everyone appeared!
Then the blue sphere spun and expanded wildly!
"Giant Rasengan!"
The massive Giant Rasengan was forcefully pressed into Obito's abdomen!
Like a high-speed grinding machine, the Rasengan continuously broke through the Tobi defense on Obito's surface. The Tobi defense was ground away, finally revealing Obito's abdomen.
And the Giant Rasengan pressed into it, like a blender, churning Obito's internal organs into a chaotic mess!
Then.
Boom!!!
The force of the Giant Rasengan erupted, a violent gust of wind exploded, and Obito was sent flying heavily!
Spinning, Obito traced a parabolic arc, then crashed into the mud!
However, at the moment, no one had the mind to observe Obito, who was already a loser.
Everyone, regardless of friend or foe, focused their gaze on the center of the field just now.
Because, although the Flying Thunder God Technique combined with the Rasengan had already indicated the identity of this person, it wasn't confirmed.
But now, due to the gust from the Rasengan's explosion-
The black-robed figure's hood was blown off.
A head of dazzling blond hair, familiar to everyone, appeared before all!
"Mi, Minato!!?"
Looking at that golden-haired figure, Hiruzen was shocked.
Even if he had anticipated it, who could remain calm upon truly seeing this?
Mangetsu, Ameyuri, and the others were the same.
"How is this possible? The person who escorted us here to participate in the war was actually Konoha's Fourth Hokage?"
"Aren't we enemies? Why?" Mangetsu's face was full of disbelief.
The other Kirigakure's Ninjas were the same.
Only Mei's expression remained unchanged.
Seeing this, everyone was shocked: "Terumi Mei, did you already know?"
"Of course!" Mei nodded: "Otherwise, how could I have arranged such tactics?"
"Damn it!" Kurumi and Meigetsu gritted their teeth in jealousy.
Clearly, Minato, under Kirigakure's command, was a backup plan Sora specifically left for Kirigakure.
But such a backup was entrusted to Mei, not them. From this, Sora's preference, his choice for the 'primary wife', was self-evident!
However, at the moment, the ranking dispute among the three women was a minor matter.
Ahead, Hiruzen was utterly incredulous.
He took two steps forward, wanting to take a closer look at Minato.
Simultaneously, Hiruzen asked: "Minato, what exactly is your current situation?"
"Are you dead, or not dead?"
"I..." Hearing Hiruzen's question, Minato looked back at Sora hesitantly.
Looking at Minato, Sora nodded. At the same time, Sora looked towards the other side: "Clan Head Fugaku, there's nothing to hide anymore. You come over too!"
Whoosh—
Upon hearing Sora's command, Fugaku disengaged from his battle with Orochimaru and instantly appeared at the center of the battlefield.
"Can we talk now?" Fugaku looked at Sora.
"Of course, your exposure is also a good opportunity!" Sora said.
"Alright!" Fugaku nodded, then looked at Minato, his eyes asking: "You or me?"
"I'll do it!" Minato took a deep breath and said: "Third Hokage-sama, I am not dead. The body you obtained was a Gigai created by Soul King-sama."
"As for my current state, I am undoubtedly dead, because I am actually a spiritual body. I have been transformed from a Ninja into a Shinigami by Soul King-sama!"
"Gigai, spiritual body, Shinigami? What is all this?" Hiruzen asked, confused.
He didn't notice that upon hearing these terms, Orochimaru nearby had his eyes shining.
"Wait, Mizukage-sama, your Gigai, spiritual body, etc., are they the meanings I understand?" Orochimaru excitedly looked at Sora.
"Yes, precisely those meanings!"
A smile appeared at the corner of Sora's mouth: "Easy to understand, right? A spiritual body is a person's soul, a Gigai is a person's physical body!"
"As long as the soul remains, things like Gigai can be changed at will. And as long as the technology is advanced enough, any Gigai can be manufactured!"
"Hisss!" Hearing Sora's words, Orochimaru drew a sharp breath.
Then, he became even more fanatical: "Even with my current abilities, I cannot create bodies, only seize them."
"Mizukage, have you advanced this far on this path?"
"Heh!" Sora shook his head: "It's not that I've advanced far!"
"But rather..."
