One surprise after another

Who was this person? He actually knew my true identity!

Obito was jolted with shock, but fortunately, his mask concealed his expression.

This no longer had anything to do with his agreement with Uchiha Itachi. The exposure of his identity mattered more than anything else.

Obito Uchiha no longer spared a thought for the survival of the Uchiha Clan. His expression twisted viciously as he pursued Naruto's shadow clone, controlled by the Nine-Tails.

No matter who this person was or what abilities he possessed, Obito could not let anyone who knew his true identity survive the night—even if the Third Hokage himself had come!

But once Obito got serious, he clearly stopped holding back. His uncanny flashes of movement with Kamui nearly let him catch the clone several times.

Controlling the clone with the aid of natural energy, the Nine-Tails pushed the potential of this shadow clone Minato had created to its limit. It had no concern for the clone's lifespan and drove it almost beyond its capacity.
