Sure enough, as Uzumaki Naruto's voice trailed off.
The shape of the Kamui Mangekyō fully stabilized, transforming into a brand-new, five-pointed pinwheel!
Then, the very next moment.
Whoosh! An incredibly eerie ocular power instantly surged wildly in all directions; wherever it passed, the void seemed to tremble, emitting a series of tearing sounds.
Under the influence of this ocular power, the bodies of Kakashi and Obito began to radiate a terrifying aura that seemed to originate from hell itself.
Seeing this, Uzumaki Naruto's pupils constricted: "This is absurd! The Mangekyō can actually mutate further? I fear even the Sage of Six Paths would be startled if he saw this..."
However, before Uzumaki Naruto could finish his sentence.
Suddenly, an anomaly occurred!
"Hell Prison: Eye Kill!" Kakashi and Obito's Mangekyō narrowed sharply as they shouted in unison.
In an instant.
Boom! A monstrous surge of ocular power erupted from their Mangekyō, and a giant vertical eye tore through the void, standing before the duo.
That vertical eye was pitch-black like ink, with a dead, crimson pupil that exuded an extremely evil aura.
The moment it appeared, it stared fiercely toward Uzumaki Naruto's position.
"A new ocular technique?!" Uzumaki Naruto frowned, somewhat astonished: "Even if it mutated, it should still be based on Kamui! This vertical eye..."
However, Uzumaki Naruto's words remained unfinished.
Swish! His chest seemed to be struck by something, and a shocking, gaping hole instantly tore through it, piercing straight out his back.
Blood gushed wildly from his body, and in an instant, a pool of blood formed on the ground.
That injury was undoubtedly fatal!
"Naruto!!!" Witnessing this scene, Sakura shrieked at the top of her lungs.
Sakura had been standing to the side, stunned and shocked while watching everything that had just transpired, but knowing she had no right to intervene, she had silently remained a bystander.
Yet at this moment, seeing Uzumaki Naruto suffer such a grievous wound to his chest, she finally realized the severity of the situation!!
Then.
Zoom! Sakura's figure flashed, arriving at Uzumaki Naruto's side. She quickly spread her hands over the gaping hole in his chest, and the green light unique to medical ninjutsu instantly covered it.
At this moment.
Slap! Uzumaki Naruto grabbed Sakura's shoulder and said: "Sakura, get back..."
Sakura's eyes instantly welled up, tears streaming down as she sobbed uncontrollably: "Don't move, Naruto! I can save you! I can definitely save you!"
As she finished speaking.
Whoosh! The healing green light on her palms grew more intense, and the blood continuously flowing from Uzumaki Naruto's chest seemed to slow down slightly.
But this was merely a drop in the bucket!
With such a horrifying amount of blood loss, even a god descending from the heavens would find it difficult to save him!
However.
Uzumaki Naruto's expression remained calm; he ignored Sakura's words and instead flung her directly toward Chiyo, who was in the deep pit.
Then, he lowered his head to gaze at the gaping hole in his chest, a self-deprecating smile curling his lips: "My miscalculation... this vertical eye must be capable of launching attacks invisible to the naked eye! It's just..."
At this point, Uzumaki Naruto looked up at Kakashi, his eyes flickering with a trace of confusion: "It's just, Kakashi, that you would actually strike at me?!"
Kakashi did not answer, his eyes merely cold as ice, staring silently at Uzumaki Naruto.
In contrast.
Obito's face was incomparably savage and twisted, his pupils burning with extreme killing intent as he roared furiously: "Uzumaki Naruto, you dared to use Rin to deceive me! I will tear you to pieces, reduce you to ashes, and slaughter every one of your friends and family!"
As his voice fell, Obito and Kakashi's Mangekyō narrowed sharply once again.
Hum! The terrifying vertical eye suspended in the void began to vibrate again.
In an instant.
Swish! Uzumaki Naruto's leg was also struck by that invisible attack, and a bloody hole instantly appeared, with scarlet blood flowing out continuously.
Yet, there was not a hint of pain on Uzumaki Naruto's face; his eyes remained fixed solely on Kakashi.
"Naruto!" Seeing this, Sakura felt as if her heart were being torn apart. Anxious and desperate, she immediately prepared to rush out regardless of the danger.
"Don't go! Look, Naruto shows no sign of panic; he must have a way to deal with this! Do not become a burden to him!" Chiyo hurriedly stopped Sakura, speaking in a grave and earnest tone.
However, at the same time she finished speaking, a subtle, imperceptible glint of light flashed deep within her pupils...
Uzumaki Naruto is simply too strong! If he could be buried here, perhaps the future of the ninja world could maintain its balance...
Chiyo thought to herself, but on the surface, she feigned a mature and steady demeanor, continuing to console Sakura: "Rest assured... you are his comrade; you must have faith in him!"
And on the other side.
"Hahahahaha..." Seeing another hole appear on Naruto's body, Obito looked up and laughed wildly, as if he had gone insane.
Then.
Obito's laughter cut off abruptly, his face twisting into a hideous mask like a vengeful spirit as he glared at Naruto: "Have you given up on running? That's right, with injuries like those, you never had a chance anyway!"
Having said that.
Obito wiped his hand across his throat, the dark resentment surging in his eyes seemingly capable of swallowing a person whole: "After I kill you, I will find Orochimaru and force him to use Impure World Reincarnation on you and your parents! I will humiliate them right in front of you! I want you to taste the same psychological agony I just endured!"
With that, he immediately channeled his newfound Five-Wheel Mangekyō once more!
As those massive vertical pupils trembled, it was as if countless demons were roaring within them, and a bloody hole instantly appeared on Naruto's arm.
The ground all around was already covered in the blood he had lost, creating a truly gruesome sight.
Yet, Naruto remained completely indifferent to the wounds on his body, continuing to stare only at Kakashi.
Observing the slight unfocused haze in Kakashi's pupils, Naruto realized with a start: "It seems this mutated Mangekyō has given you the ability to control Kakashi; otherwise, he wouldn't have joined forces with you to attack me..."
"Hehehe... you're very clever." Hearing this, Obito let out a cold laugh, his face then twisting into a mocking, murderous sneer: "I owe that to you, too! You forced me to evolve my Mangekyō a second time through sheer agony! This means I hold absolute dominion over these eyes; whoever wears them will be under my control!"
As he spoke, Obito covered his right eye with one hand, revealing an expression of extreme madness and arrogance: "These Mangekyō of mine! They have already surpassed Kamui! They wield power from hell itself! They possess the ability to overturn everything!"
"Power from hell, is it..." Naruto mused thoughtfully.
"That's right! And this is the ocular jutsu of my left eye, the Eye of Satan created by Hell Prison: Eye Kill. It summons scorching, evil light from hell to strike others! And apart from me, no one can see this light! Even if they wanted to dodge, they wouldn't know how to move!" Seemingly convinced of his victory, Obito actually pointed at the massive vertical pupil, explaining with a wicked grin.
Hearing this, Naruto's pupils didn't ripple in the slightest; he merely nodded slightly: "Hmm... that's a decent skill."
As the words fell, in the very next instant.
Naruto raised his blood-soaked right hand and slowly swept his black hair back, the blood trailing from his wrist down his cheek, making his expression appear all the more sinister against the backdrop of gore.
Immediately following.
Naruto slowly raised his blood-stained eyes, his gaze flickering as he licked the blood from his lips, instantly revealing an expression of madness several times more intense than Obito's.
"Obito, you have truly angered me..."
