Obito rolled his neck, which had grown a little stiff from sleeping outdoors.
Then he looked coldly at Orochimaru and said,
"Just as you're researching Living Corpse Reincarnation, I have my own methods."
!!!
Orochimaru's heart nearly leaped out of his chest.
Living Corpse Reincarnation was a secret he had never spoken of.
No one else knew about it!
Orochimaru stared hard at Obito, licked his lips, and asked,
"How did you learn of it...?"
Obito snorted and replied with disdain,
"In the Shinobi World today, there is nothing I, Madara Uchiha, do not know."
Orochimaru's pupils contracted slightly, then relaxed.
An intrigued look crossed his face as he said,
"Hiss, hiss, hiss. But the Madara Uchiha of legend was an utterly domineering man. I doubt he would patiently explain so much to me."
Well, would you look at that, Obito thought.
I tried talking to you nicely, and you wouldn't listen. I've spoiled you!
His eyes widened, and three Tomoe slowly revolved within them.
In the next instant, he seized control of Orochimaru's body.
"My strength now is less than half what it was at its peak, but I am still not someone a junior like you can challenge."
Obito spoke with fervor and arrogance.
"What's more, I have obtained Hashirama's power!"
Obito clapped his hands together and went on the offensive.
Sharp branches burst out one after another, stabbing toward the immobilized Orochimaru.
They skewered him like a candied fruit on a stick!
Orochimaru cried out,
"That hurts!"
Cold sweat poured down Orochimaru's face.
The man could use Wood Release!
The Sharingan... Wood Release...
Could he really be Madara Uchiha, brought back to life?!
And had he obtained the Wood Release Technique from the First?!
If he possessed both the Sharingan and Wood Release, two terrifying Kekkei Genkai...
