But at that moment, Torifu was watching Obito train in the yard.
He naturally knew about all the rumors circulating in the streets, but he didn't care.
Torifu was very confident in his own strength. He didn't believe he would lose to Ōtsutsuki Isshiki.
Of course, he wouldn't underestimate his opponent, either. As his first Six Paths Level adversary, Isshiki would demand his full effort.
And Torifu would have to lure him away from here.
A Six Paths battle was no joke. A single stray burst of power could destroy the village over and over.

Torifu couldn't let anyone destroy it.

Uchiha Chirori looked worried. "Could you be imagining things?"
Torifu turned to look at her. From his expression, Uchiha Chirori could tell he wasn't joking.
Something really was going to happen today.
