Chapter 453 - Chapter 788: Staying Behind at the Cost of His Life

Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!

Along with a low rumbling sound, a second Yasaka Magatama glowing with mysterious light suddenly appeared in the huge and ferocious hand of the Susanoo like a shining meteor.

This time, Obito's eyes locked tightly onto Pakura in the distance like a hungry wolf.

Pakura instantly felt a freezing chill rise from her spine, as though an invisible hand was tightly gripping her throat.

That suffocating killing intent surrounded her completely like an airtight net.

Right then, the Sunagakure ninja who had been rushing desperately toward Rasa suddenly made a shocking move.

He reached toward his waist, pulled out a sharp kunai, and threw it with all his strength toward Rasa.

Even though Rasa's entire body was wrapped up like a rice dumpling, looking exactly like a mummy.

The force behind the kunai thrown by the jonin was enormous, causing Rasa's seemingly helpless body to shake.

Seeing this, Obito slightly frowned.

After all, Rasa was the primary target of this mission. He absolutely could not let Rasa die like this.

So with a thought, he controlled the huge Susanoo to quickly turn around. Then with a swing of its arm, the glowing Yasaka Magatama shot straight toward the Sunagakure ninja like an arrow leaving the string.

"Rakuto!"

Whoosh!

In almost the blink of an eye, the Yasaka Magatama turned into a streak of light and shot forward at lightning speed.

Wherever it passed, the air itself seemed to tear apart, releasing sharp screeching sounds.

Boom!

With a loud explosion, a huge crater was blasted into the ground, and thick dust rose into the sky and covered everything.

Fortunately, Rakuto had already expected he would be attacked, so at the critical moment, he used the Body Flicker Technique and instantly moved three meters forward.

Even so, the shockwave from the fierce explosion behind him still threw him to the ground.

Luckily, Rakuto did not die from it.

And using the force of the explosion, he lunged forward and successfully reached Rasa's side.

Rakuto suddenly pulled out the kunai behind him. The muscles in his arm tightened as he gripped it in his hand.

His eyes were cold as ice as he aimed directly at Rasa's temple. In a hoarse and low voice, as though using all his strength, he shouted, "Lord Kazekage, go! Hurry and go!"

Pakura and the other two survivors understood that if they did not escape now, they probably would not survive.

There was no time for long farewells with their companion. They only hurriedly turned their heads and gave each other one final look.

Sunagakure had already fallen into terrible hardship, and life there had become extremely difficult.

If Pakura died here now, it would undoubtedly make things even worse for all of Sunagakure, and they might even face destruction.

Thinking of this, Pakura's face instantly turned pale green. Gritting her teeth, she forced out a single word, "Go!"

Although the other two Sunagakure ninjas were full of unwillingness, at this life-and-death moment, they could only obey Pakura's order, quickly turning and following behind her.

At the same time, Obito slowly recovered from the powerful soundwave attack from earlier.

When he discovered that Pakura and the others had used the chance to escape, anger rose inside him.

However, he knew very well that the main goal of this mission was Rasa. If Rasa died here, the loss would outweigh the gain.

So Obito canceled the Susanoo and stepped forward, walking directly toward Rasa.

Rakuto had just suffered the violent impact of the Yasaka Magatama and was already heavily injured. His internal organs had been badly shaken, and the moment he opened his mouth, large amounts of bloody foam poured out.

Even so, he still endured the severe pain, straightened his body, and coldly stared at the approaching Obito while giving another warning, "Don't come any closer!"

The sharp kunai flashing with cold light shot rapidly toward Rasa's temple like lightning, instantly piercing the skin there.

Seeing this, Obito really did stop walking.

Obito's abilities were too strange. Now he could even use Susanoo. Even their Kazekage could not defeat him.

At this moment, if they could not find a way to delay him, then his sacrifice would become meaningless.

However, Obito understood all of Rakuto's thoughts very clearly. He merely raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a mocking sneer as he said, "I really didn't expect you to be this loyal, but what use does it have?"

Then he coldly added, "Your Sunagakure is going to fall apart sooner or later anyway."

Hearing this, Rakuto instinctively lowered his head and did not dare look at Obito at all.

After all, the Uchiha clan's genjutsu was famous throughout the ninja world. He did not want to accidentally meet Obito's eyes and become trapped in terrifying genjutsu.

So he could only keep staring below Obito's neck, carefully watching every movement to make sure Obito would not suddenly rush over and launch a deadly attack.

"Hmph! You're nothing more than a stray dog chased out by your own clan and forced to run around everywhere," Rakuto gritted his teeth and shot back.

In fact, almost everyone in the ninja world knew that Obito was a traitor who had fled from the Uchiha clan.

Obito turned his head and looked behind him.

Sure enough, the Sunagakure group had already run so far away that there was no sign of them anymore.

Obito no longer had the mood to continue wasting words with Rakuto. He prepared to make his move directly.

Because Rakuto never dared raise his head to look into Obito's eyes, he completely failed to notice.

At this moment, Obito's mysterious Kamui eyes were spinning rapidly, and powerful pupil power continuously spread out from them.

As Obito softly called out, "Kamui!"

An invisible force suddenly burst out.

A huge vortex rapidly spread outward from the center of Rakuto's heart like a black hole.

The vortex released a terrifying fluctuation, as though it wanted to devour everything around it.

And the attack speed of dual Kamui was as fast as lightning, making it impossible for anyone to react.

By the time Rakuto sensed the danger, it was already too late.
