"Rumble... Rumble... Rumble..."
The ground continued to tremble as Obito steadily advanced with the Stone Golems.
The Stone Golems had already covered more than half the distance. Aside from a few initial probing attempts, the Ninja Alliance had not come again.
They seemed to be waiting for a final decisive battle with Obito.
But Obito was beginning to grow restless.
Not a single person he wanted to lure out had come. At the very least, they could have tested Natsuki's strength.
On the other hand, Black Zetsu and the Impure World Reincarnation army had not arrived either.

But with Natsuki there, things were
