At this moment, Obito was completely unable to control his thoughts.
The image of Rin being pierced through by Kakashi.
The image of Rin telling him she would not wait for him.
Scene after scene appeared in Obito's mind.
Wave after wave of immense pain surged toward Obito like a tide.
Numerous black halos immediately appeared around Obito.
These halos began to flow like water, then were all sucked into the Zero-Tails behind Shinno.
A powerful force also arose within Shinno.
Greed gleamed in Shinno's eyes. "Excellent! Hahaha, who would have thought you carried such immense pain?"
"You're practically food bestowed upon the Zero-Tails by the heavens."
Obito opened his eyes, his blood-red Mangekyō Sharingan fixing on Shinno.
"You deserve to die!"
Obito stomped the ground and charged toward Shinno.
Shinno laughed and retreated. Countless tentacles extended from the Zero-Tails behind him.
Yet every one of them passed straight through Obito's body.
Shinno's smile did not fade. He formed hand seals, and the Zero-Tails erupted with more ghostly light.
Even more of Obito's emotions were awakened, setting his insides ablaze.
At the same time, all the emotions surfacing within Obito were captured by the Zero-Tails, which began to writhe even faster.
It seemed on the verge of breaking free from its cocoon.
Black energy rose from Shinno's body. With it, his figure became ghostlike.
In a flash, he leaped backward onto the Zero-Tails' cocoon.
Enduring the erosion of his emotions, Obito unleashed a Kamui Vortex at the Zero-Tails.
Shinno seemed utterly unconcerned, allowing Obito to bore a hole into the Zero-Tails.
Obito's furious strike blasted a circular hole half a meter wide straight through the Zero-Tails from front to back.
But the Zero-Tails only let out a shriek before its body rapidly closed back together.
Shinno said smugly:
"Give up.
