"This brat."
Obito Uchiha stood within the firelight, his expression somewhat grim.
Originally, he had been observing from the shadows while waiting for news from Sasuke Uchiha. He had not expected Kitagawa Gen to run into Sasuke!
Still, that was not exactly a bad thing. He had wanted to test Kitagawa Gen anyway, and now that Sasuke was there too, was that not perfect?
What he had never expected was that this brat had clearly been talking about Itachi Uchiha one second, only to send a kunai with an exploding tag flying straight toward him the next.
If he had not maintained his Kamui state the whole time, that strike might really have made him suffer!
Discovered by a brat, and even beaten to the punch?
Obito Uchiha truly found such a reversal hard to accept!
"But this kid's sensory ability seems rather strong."
Obito Uchiha stared at Kitagawa Gen. He had only moved a little closer and had been discovered, which genuinely surprised him.
"You two, stay sharp. Find a chance and leave here immediately."
Kitagawa Gen figured the explosion just now should have drawn quite a bit of attention, but he still gave a quiet reminder.
"This guy should be an accomplice of Itachi Uchiha. And there's another problem. Sasuke, are you sure all of you Uchiha died cleanly that night?"
"."
Sasuke, who had originally looked stunned and panicked because of this sudden turn of events, instantly darkened when he heard that question.
What the hell kind of question was that?
But very quickly, when he used the firelight to see clearly the figure standing in the flames as though intangible, and the scarlet eye beneath the mask, his face instantly turned somewhat pale.
"That's... a Sharingan?"
"What Sharingan?"
Naruto looked utterly confused. He only knew the person across from them was probably an enemy. As for anything else, he had no idea.
"Hm?"
But just then, he suddenly clutched his stomach and crouched on the ground. The aura around him also became especially chaotic, and even a surge of red chakra emerged!
"The Nine-Tails reacted?"
Seeing this, Kitagawa Gen immediately understood what was going on.
The Nine-Tails probably could not forget the aura of that guy, Obito Uchiha. Still, this was not bad.
The Nine-Tails reacting was the village's biggest matter!
"The Nine-Tails, huh... Hmph, still as foolish as ever."
Obito Uchiha glanced at Naruto before speaking indifferently.
"Kid, not bad eyes. But..."
He did not mind others seeing his Sharingan. After all, he had already transformed himself into Madara Uchiha.
He walked forward slowly. The flames around him seemed completely unable to touch him. In the next instant, his speed suddenly surged, and in a flash, he had already appeared before Kitagawa Gen and the other two.
"Everything you've done is useless!"
"Go!"
Kitagawa Gen had been watching Obito Uchiha's movements the entire time. Almost the instant he moved, Kitagawa Gen had already shoved Sasuke and Naruto away, while purple lightning appeared in his right hand!
Obito Uchiha's strength was actually absurd. On the night of the Nine-Tails, he could instantly wipe out an Anbu squad and control the Nine-Tails with a single look.
Even when he fought Minato Namikaze, he took a Rasengan head-on and still did not die. That showed just how tough this guy was.
But his basic abilities just happened to be nothing special. He relied entirely on Kamui to hold everything up.
If Kitagawa Gen wanted to stall him, or even deal with him, he had to use some tricks.
Fortunately, he knew there were three ways to deal with Kamui, three!
Buzz—
Purple thunder instantly scraped across Obito Uchiha's mask, but that strike caused no trouble at all.
Obito Uchiha also immediately made his move. A chain appeared in his hand, and the instant he avoided Kitagawa Gen's attack, he swung it over as well.
But Obito Uchiha frowned slightly, because he discovered that Kitagawa Gen seemed to have expected it long ago. Following the momentum, he lowered his body and avoided his attack.
When that strike failed, Obito was also somewhat surprised, but the movements of his hands did not stop.
Kitagawa Gen quickly flashed aside again. While avoiding Obito Uchiha's attack, he also opened up a little distance, and at the same time, his hands began forming seals.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
A massive fireball was instantly spat out by him, surging toward Obito Uchiha, and this scene made him shake his head in disdain.
"Is this how that trash Kakashi taught you? It's all useless!"
He did not dodge at all. That Sharingan merely moved slightly, and in an instant, several huge shuriken flew toward Kitagawa Gen like lightning!
"Earth Release: Earth Flow Wall!"
Kitagawa Gen raised his brows slightly. He stopped pretending too, and almost instantly, he had already completed the hand seals.
The earth shook, and a huge earthen wall rose up, solidly blocking those shuriken!
"Your hand seal speed is pretty fast."
Obito Uchiha snorted coldly and spoke with disdain.
"But you want to use this method to draw other people's attention. You still have to be able to buy time."
"Actually, this is enough."
The Earth Flow Wall dispersed at this moment, and Kitagawa Gen's figure slowly appeared as well. He stared at Obito Uchiha in the distance and deliberately spoke.
"I can tell your state. You're not some phantom, much less genjutsu. You should be using some specific method to avoid my attacks.
"And those shuriken just appeared directly... I heard the Fourth Hokage had a kind of Space-Time Ninjutsu. Yours is probably similar, right?"
"Yes."
Obito Uchiha nodded. In the next instant, his entire body vanished again, and his figure emerged from underground, coming straight at Kitagawa Gen.
"But knowing is one thing. Can you hold out? Don't you know the people of Konoha are always late?"
Whoosh—
The chain swept across, but Kitagawa Gen had already leapt up at this moment. Several kunai in his hand flew toward Obito Uchiha once more.
Unfortunately, Obito Uchiha did not seem to have turned solid at all. The kunai passed straight through this guy's body.
"How boring. Before the gap in absolute strength, no matter how you resist, it is ultimately a useless struggle."
Obito Uchiha pressed closer. But just as his chain was about to touch Kitagawa Gen again, he suddenly felt something wrong with the sensation in his hand.
Zzzzt, zzzzt, zzzzt—
In that instant, Kitagawa Gen's body turned into surging purple electric currents, and this current also made Obito Uchiha's brows furrow slightly.
"A Lightning Clone? Was it when he used the Earth Flow Wall just now?"
The Sharingan's insight was beyond question, but some clones were still absurdly deceptive. Otherwise, in the future, he would not have been fooled by Kakashi's Lightning Clone either.
Feeling that fierce lightning surge up his chain, his gaze sharpened, because almost at the same moment, countless kunai attacked him again from behind!
"Tch, this brat..."
Obito Uchiha snorted coldly. He leapt backward while his gaze sharpened, and everything around him began to twist.
In truth, he did want to quickly transfer himself, but he had truly attacked just now, which meant he was in a solid-body state.
And with only one Mangekyo, the time he needed to transfer himself was longer than the time needed to transfer other things.
The most urgent thing was naturally to transfer those kunai first!
Space twisted, and in an instant, those incoming kunai vanished without a trace.
But not far away, Kitagawa Gen, who had already pulled away, smiled when he saw this scene.
What he had been waiting for was precisely this moment.
The internal heat is pretty serious. My gums are swollen like crazy, so I'm afraid I'll have to go to the hospital QAQ
