The battle was over.
Six Paths Nagato withdrew the Six Crimson Sun Formation barrier, and Minato began repairing the damaged lunar battlefield. Hashirama focused on healing his injuries, while Snake Aunt and Orochimaru ran off together to collect Ōtsutsuki Isshiki's blood.
Although Isshiki had been blown to ashes in the end, the blood he'd shed when he was injured was still there, making it easy for them to collect.
Whether it was cloning Ōtsutsuki Isshiki or trying to use him for Impure World Reincarnation, it was an incredibly tempting research project for Orochimaru!
Just thinking about it made the two of them tremble with excitement...
In the end, only Madara had a little free time.
So Madara took the initiative and helped the unconscious Obito by pulling all the Black Rods out of his body. With his Rinnegan, he could easily remove Isshiki's Black Rods.
After all, a certain Second Hokage Tobirama Senju was still inside Obito's Kamui Dimension.
It didn't matter if Obito didn't wake up anytime soon. It would be just as good to have the Whirlpool White Zetsu controlling Obito's body and using Kamui.
"Lord Madara! My Lord Madara! How did I do? Not bad, right?"
As soon as the Whirlpool White Zetsu was freed from the Black Rods, it took control of Obito's body and lunged forward, tightly hugging Madara Grandpa 1's leg as it fawned over him.
After all, as far as it knew, the Madara before it was the one who had created it.
It had no idea that this Madara was actually from another time-space.
Madara Grandpa 1 naturally couldn't be bothered to explain. He kicked the Whirlpool Obito away and said coldly:
"Cut the crap. Let that useless Tobirama out."
"Understood!"
The Whirlpool White Zetsu used Kamui and quickly released Tobirama 2
