"Mirai, let's go." At that moment, Kushina straightened up and spoke to Mirai.
However, Mirai seemed stunned at that moment, an indescribable expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" Startled, Kushina turned slightly toward him.
Bang!
The next moment, a figure crashed into her. Yet Kushina was unharmed, while the figure suddenly fell to the ground.
"Ow..."
Sitting on the ground, he flailed his hands in pain. Kushina, whom he had just bumped into, looked down at him and asked, "Are you all right?"
Naturally, Obito could not hurt her. He got to his feet, then bowed in apology. "I'm sorry!"
"Mm, it's fine."

"Then let's go." Kushina said as the two slowly walked forward.

In his haste, he had no time to dodge and could only try to stop.

Obito stepped on a stone, lost his balance, and fell to the ground.
This scene happened to fall within Kushina and Mirai's
