Black Zetsu, who had been quietly standing beside Uchiha Obito, revealed a sinister smile when he saw Uchiha Kyu trying to use space-time ninjutsu to escape again.
Uchiha Kyu's calm expression suddenly changed. In the instant danger descended, Susanoo appeared.
In the blink of an eye, the Black Rods in Nagato's hand pierced into Susanoo.
The forces of Shinra Tensei and Banshō Ten'in also destroyed the damaged Susanoo at the same time.
Uchiha Kyu frowned deeply, gathering all his strength in his legs. With a powerful push of both feet, he swiftly retreated from Nagato.
Uchiha Kyu's gaze swept over everyone before lingering on Black Zetsu for an extra second.
His space-time power had just failed to activate. Could Black Zetsu have been behind it?
As expected of an old monster who had lived for so long.
And those Black Rods really were formidable. Even he could not heal the damage they inflicted on Susanoo.
Even from reading the original work, it had been clear that wounds caused by the Black Rods could not be healed even by an Impure World Reincarnation body.
If Susanoo's wounds could heal, then with Susanoo's defenses, there would have been nothing to fear from an attack of this level.
"Susanoo actually saved him."
Uchiha Obito, who had never used Susanoo himself, had not considered that possibility and was somewhat surprised.
"Are you jealous?"
White Zetsu shouted carelessly from the side.
"Shut up."
Having his thoughts exposed, Uchiha Obito immediately flew into a rage out of embarrassment.
Nagato slowly rose into the air, intending to use Shinra Tensei once more and finish his opponent in one blow.
"You escaped twice, but before a god, no one can escape."
"Enough nonsense. Attack together."
Uchiha Obito did not want to watch Nagato play at being a god
