Hashirama's Cells Transplant-Are You Going to Gamble with Your Life?

"Yes."

Obito took a sealed container from within his robe.

Inside the container, a mass of white tissue was still slowly writhing, giving off astonishingly vigorous life force.

Nagato's Rinnegan showed a clear fluctuation for the first time.

Konan also abruptly looked toward the white tissue.

"What is this?"

"Something that can let Nagato stand again."

Obito placed the container before them.

"After the transplant, his deteriorating body will be repaired."

"His life force, recovery ability, and Chakra capacity will also increase greatly."

"By then, he won't need to keep relying on the Six Paths bodies."

"The Rinnegan's Six Paths Power can be entirely concentrated in his main body."

Konan's expression changed abruptly.

"You've had something like this all along?"

"Why didn't you take it out sooner?"

"If Nagato's body could recover, he wouldn't have needed to endure so much pain!"

Obito raised a hand to his mask.

"Because it doesn't come without a price."

Click.

The mask was slowly removed.

One half of his face was intact, while the other was scarred and nearly ruined, both exposed beneath the secret chamber's lights.

Konan's gaze froze.

Nagato also looked at the starkly different halves of Obito's face.

Obito set the mask aside.

"During the Third Shinobi World War, I was still a Konoha ninja."

"During the Kannabi Bridge mission, half my body was crushed beneath a boulder."

"My bones were shattered, and my internal organs were damaged."

"Under normal circumstances, I should have died there long ago."

"Madara Uchiha saved me."

Obito raised a hand and pressed it against the ruined half of his body.

"He used Hashirama's Cells to replace the flesh and blood I had lost."

"Hashirama's Cells possess incredibly powerful life force."

"They can heal injuries, strengthen the body, and even grant the transplant recipient recovery abilities
