Kabuto Yakushi raced through the forests of the Land of Rice Fields when a black spiral suddenly swirled ahead. A figure in black robes emerged, landing in his path.
"Yo, Kabuto Yakushi. Long time no see..."
Obito Uchiha flicked up the back of his Black Robe and slowly settled onto a branch, resting his left leg across his right knee. Beneath his white mask, his shadowed eyes looked down on the figure below.
"Obito Uchiha."
Kabuto Yakushi composed himself and adopted his usual courteous manner. "May I ask what brings you here?"
Obito cut straight to the point. "Tell me where Orochimaru is. He has something I want."
Kabuto Yakushi feigned ignorance. "What might that be? Could you be mistaken? I know everything about Lord Orochimaru like the back of my hand. You've certainly come to the right person~."
Obito slowly narrowed his eyes. "The Nine-Tails."
Kabuto Yakushi said, "Then surely you should be looking for the Nine-Tails jinchūriki. Why seek out Lord Orochimaru?"
Obito said darkly, "Looks like you don't know what's good for you. I never expected to get a straight answer out of you anyway. Forcing your mouth open will be all too easy..."
Whoosh!
As his words fell, Obito landed forcefully in front of Kabuto Yakushi, his black robes fluttering. A Wooden Thousand-Armed Spear sprouted from his right shoulder, skewering Kabuto until he bristled like a hedgehog!!
"Heeheehee, hahahaha...!"
With that brazen, wicked laugh, a white figure shot backward. The robe Obito had pierced collapsed, and white snakes hissed and flicked their tongues as they covered the ground!
"You really are cut from the same cloth. But..."
Beneath his mask, Obito's gaze turned icy as he aimed his palm at Kabuto Yakushi in the distance!!
"You're mine!!"
—Banshō Ten'in!!
Whoosh!
The powerful pull made Kabuto stagger.
