Tobirama Senju: "That's definitely how it should be."
Tobirama Senju: "I don't want to see the Land of Whirlpools in the future become like the villages of Konoha today."
Uchiha Izuna: Tch~
Uchiha Izuna: That sounds nice, but what were you doing while you were alive?
Tobirama Senju: "To contribute to the entire ninja world."
Uchiha Izuna: ...
Ah, yes, yes, yes.
You laid a solid foundation for Konoha.
then...
Enjoy your retirement!
...
[After Obito Uchiha enters the Kamui dimension.]
One second... two seconds... three seconds...
[Whoosh—]
The trident-shaped kunai appeared at the location where Obito Uchiha had previously been.
[Next.]
A golden flash streaked across the sky.
[Minato Namikaze appears above a trident-shaped kunai engraved with the Flying Thunder God Technique symbol.]
[He's holding a trident-shaped kunai in one hand.]
[He slowly raised his head, his deep blue eyes bloodshot.]
"It really was you..."
[God knows how long Minato Namikaze searched for Obito Uchiha during this time.]
[Little Sun is dead, now only Little Blackie is left~!]
[Buzz—]
At this moment.
Obito Uchiha frowned as he stepped into the Land of Fire.
Suddenly I felt a chill down my back.
Looking back.
Then, Black and White Jue slowly emerged from behind the tree.
"Why are you here?"
Beneath the mask, Obito Uchiha's brows were furrowed.
The chill in my heart didn't come from despair.
Who could that be?
"Nagato has ulterior motives."
[Black and white, straight to the point.]
Obito Uchiha was momentarily stunned.
["Why?"]
It asked instinctively.
Black and White shook their heads.
"Akatsuki is no longer under our control."
"The Land of Rain has been incorporated into the Land of Whirlpools."
[A moment of silence.]
Obito Uchiha snorted coldly.
"Were we fooled by false peace rhetoric?"
"It seems that Konoha is more troublesome than I imagined."
"Nagato betrayed us, so be it."
"Perfect timing to reclaim the Rinnegan."
"So, isn't the plan to capture the Nine-Tails being brought forward?" Black Zetsu asked.
Obito Uchiha scoffed, "No rush."
"Konoha isn't so easy to conquer right now."
"Let's wait patiently. Perhaps, once I've transplanted the Rinnegan, I can start capturing it, beginning with the One-Tailed Beast."
"Both sides are almost exhausted."
"Before that, all we need to do is deploy some White Zetsu."
[Jue remained silent for a moment.]
[Suddenly, he asked, "Before retrieving the Rinnegan, force Nagato to use the Rinne Rebirth Technique."]
Obito Uchiha remained silent.
Beneath the mask, the Sharingan began to rotate.
[Then it transformed into the pattern of the Mangekyou Sharingan.]
"We'll see."
Obito Uchiha stared directly at Zetsu.
Jue nodded.
"Time is of the essence, and we really can't afford to waste time on this."
[Upon hearing this.]
Obito Uchiha slowly turned around.
Black Zetsu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Just as it expected.
[That useless Obito Uchiha, he really has other ideas.]
[He was unwilling to revive Madara Uchiha.]
But there's nothing it can do.
[certainly. ]
If it succeeds, that would be the best outcome.
[Failed... Black Zetsu still has Plan B.]
[Not only that, it has already come up with Plan C.]
But before that, it still felt it should continue helping Obito Uchiha.
Even though it's still a piece of junk.
[But he's also a useless person with some ability.]
[I know quite a lot.]
We can't simply ignore it.
"So, what about Nagato and the Akatsuki?"
"No need," Obito Uchiha replied without turning his head.
"Nagato has no right to refuse."
"If he refuses, I will make him pay the price."
As for Xiao…
"Heh, since they've chosen to obey Nagato, let's see what happens after I deal with Nagato."
"If a knife is pointed at you, then discard it."
"Although it's a bit troublesome, my personal involvement will make the tailed beast capture plan faster and more reliable."
[That's all.]
[Obito Uchiha raises his head.]
Looking at the sky over the Land of Fire.
It's a bit gray and hazy.
Drizzling sound—
At this moment.
Raindrops suddenly began to fall.
[Obito Uchiha closes his eyes.]
Raindrops pattered on its eyelids.
Then it slid down her eyelids and down her face.
"Rain Tiger at Ease..."
"This feeling of chakra."
"Not Nagato's."
"You should go back now."
[Obito Uchiha didn't even turn his head.]
However.
It doesn't need to speak.
[Zetsu's body was already half submerged in the ground.]
"Be careful."
Obito Uchiha remained silent.
[She just closed her eyes.]
[As if lost in memories.]
"Heh... Oh, it's you."
"But what's the use of finding out now?"
"Minato-sensei."
[The words fell.]
[Buzz—]
[A spiraling spatial fluctuation appeared around Obito Uchiha.]
"You're always one step too late, forever one step too late."
"This time will be no exception."
"Always one step too late."
"You'll never catch up."
"Whether it's in the past, present, or future."
"You can't even catch up with 1 a.m."
"It's too late, Minato-sensei."
"I'm tired of this fake world."
After saying this, Obito Uchiha disappeared back into the Kamui dimension.
[Whoosh whoosh whoosh—]
[The instant it completely entered the Divine Might Space.]
A familiar voice came from inside.
[BOOM—!!!]
[Obito Uchiha, who had just entered the Kamui dimension, suddenly flew forward.]
[Struck hard from behind!]
[Completely unprepared.]
[Obito Uchiha's face was pressed directly against the ground of the Kamui dimension.]
[It paddled for quite a distance before finally coming to a stop.]
[He paused for a long while.]
[Obito Uchiha slowly removed his mask.]
[His face was ashen.]
[A Rasengan right off the bat?!]
[Obito Uchiha slammed the orange swirl mask, which only revealed his right eye, onto the ground.]
[It took a while.]
It then staggered to its feet.
[Check the injuries.]
The transplanted White Zetsu body liquefied instantly.
[It suffered severe injuries to most of its back.]
[Exactly the same as that night.]
["Flying Thunder God!"]
[In just a moment, Obito Uchiha understood what was going on.]
[Clang—]
At this moment.
A crisp sound.
[Obito Uchiha turned around to look.]
On the ground lay a familiar, specially made three-pronged kunai.
["snort!"]
Obito Uchiha snorted coldly.
After that duel, it stopped being so reckless.
But unexpectedly, a flaw still appeared.
"Looks like we're going to waste some more time."
"No...we can't waste any more time. Let Afei carry me out."
"Go back for the transplant first..."
[He was only halfway through his sentence.]
It suddenly noticed the trident-shaped kunai that had followed its body into the Divine Might Dimension.
There was even a note.
["boring."]
Despite saying that, Obito Uchiha still picked it up and read it.
[The moment the note was unfolded.]
[Obito Uchiha's wrinkled face froze instantly.]
"Obito, hide well~"
"Please, whatever you do, don't let the teacher find out."
