Obito Uchiha on Wu Chiwu, and his attack plan spun around in his mind several times.

Although this place is on the outskirts of Konoha, if a big commotion were to occur, the people from Konoha would arrive in no time.

Today is especially sensitive.

The Uchiha Clan is under the watchful eyes of countless people; at the slightest disturbance, a large number of ninjas will immediately swarm over.

Therefore, those powerful Ninjutsu cannot be used.

After the area of effect is locked, only Kamui, Genjutsu, some Taijutsu, and Ninjutsu are left to use.

However, this guy in front of me is immune to Genjutsu magic, so the Genjutsu magic connection is broken.

Obito Uchiha felt it was a bit of a pity; in the current situation, a silent Genjutsu would be the most effective method.

He stretched out his hands, and the chains clinked crisply beneath his black robe.

The attack began without any pause, and he added a casual remark, "I suppose you can't just use that teleportation ability as many times as you want?"

Wu Chiwu easily dodged the attack, his movements fluid and effortless, seemingly unaffected by Obito Uchiha's words.

Behind the mask, a hint of a smile flickered in his eyes.

You guessed correctly, but not entirely.

This skill itself has no limit on the number of uses, but it's currently in an incomplete version, so it can't be used at will.

He used this skill first to put Obito Uchiha on guard.

If Obito hesitates even for a moment, he will have more time to continue charging up his skills and hold Obito back.

Fortunately, Obito chose to use Genjutsu attack first.

No Genjutsu works against these Six Eyes.

Its Six Eyes can see through all appearances, and it is perfectly countered by Genjutsu attacks.

He secretly felt that he was quite lucky today.

Wu Chiwu calmly met Obito's unusually sharp gaze, his fingers lightly adjusting his mask, a hint of undisguised surprise in his expression.

He is, after all, a member of the Uchiha Clan.

Too perceptive, perhaps.

With just one touch, I immediately grasped the clues.

Unfortunately, this battle was fought in Konoha.

Wu Chiwu concluded that the opponent wouldn't dare to fight with all his might, because if he were discovered, Obito's situation would only worsen.

As long as the opponent doesn't reveal all their cards, he still has the ability to barely hold on to the situation.

His Azure eyes deepened for a moment, then his expression returned to calm.

Facing Obito's relentless attacks, he slightly shifted his body and nimbly slid past them.

He then flicked his wrist, Shuriken tearing through the air and rapidly Obito Uchiha.

"This thing can't hurt me," Obito in a low voice.

He didn't even make a dodging move; countless Shuriken passed through the empty smoke without any resistance.

This round of attacks suddenly reduced the distance between the two.

Obito Uchiha pale fingers and leaped forward to press down on him.

In the blink of an eye.

He was now pressed tightly against Wu Chiwu.

Faced with Obito closing in, Wu Chiwu's eyes curved into a smile.

He remained calm and composed, showing no sign of fear or intention to retreat.

He even took two steps forward to meet it, and then flew into the air and crashed into it.

It was Obito Uchiha's idea to close the distance, and it was also his.

Retreating when facing a strong enemy makes it easier for them to seize an opening; only by pushing forward can you gain the upper hand in the battle.

Wu Chiwu's eyes grew colder and sharper, and his aura became increasingly intense.

He had already secretly gathered his strength, and as he lunged forward, he quietly raised his right hand.

In an instant.

A massive amount of black energy compressed into a ball in his palm.

"He." Wu Chiwu uttered the word silently.

Obito Uchiha saw that familiar energy and the way it was used, his heart clenched.

Isn't this the same technique used by that guy named Hatake Satoru-ko?

He was secretly surprised by this unusual energy.

So that's how it is...

Is the sister he mentioned the person standing right in front of him?

What exactly is their relationship with Kakashi?

I've never heard of this person before.

The sudden appearance of two strange people briefly confused Obito.

A strange expression also appeared on his face.

However, this fleeting emotion was short-lived. He quickly regained his composure and refocused his gaze on Wu Chiwu, who was nearby.

The battle is far from over.

No matter how strange the energy source, it's all useless if it doesn't hit the enemy.

Obito Uchiha's gaze darkened, his cold eyes locking onto Wu Chiwu.

His pale hand was about to strike the opponent's most fatal spot in the abdomen.

It seems that, even though we're both space-based systems, I'm still a step ahead in terms of speed.

A slight smile played at the corners of his mouth beneath the mask.

Wu Chiwu remained calm, seemingly oblivious to the chilling threat looming over his abdomen.

He still pressed himself directly against Obito, his eyes unusually calm.

I counted silently in my mind, my gaze stretching far into the distance.

3, 2, 1.

Time is up.

The interval during which the teleportation charge was completed was exactly as it was performed.

He still has one more opportunity to use it.

At the very same moment.

Obito Uchiha from its ethereal form, his fingertips just brushing against Wu Chiwu's body.

That's the end of it.

Obito's gaze behind the mask darkened.

But precisely at that very moment...

Wu Chiwu vanished completely from the spot.

That's it?

Oh no!

Obito's pupils contracted sharply beneath the mask.

That wasn't a real attack at all.

He slightly raised his head, already guessing where Wu Chiwu's next attack would land.

But at this moment...

It's getting late.

Wu Chiwu appeared out of thin air behind Obito, and hurled the ball of black energy in his right hand without mercy.

"Boom--Bang!"

A huge, muffled thud exploded in an instant.

In the blink of an eye.

Dust and gravel flew in all directions.

A considerable amount of time passed.

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated, and the raised ash settled back to the ground.

A figure slowly stood up not far away.

Obito Uchiha stood still, supporting his slightly injured arm.

He looked at Wu Chiwu in the distance, a hint of shock still lingering in his eyes.

I never expected the other side to fight to this extent.

That whole string of words just now—it was all planned in advance.

Use yourself as bait to lure out his attack, and then launch a counterattack the moment he transforms from a phantom into a physical form.

It's amazing how accurately they seized that fleeting moment when reality and illusion shifted.

That's really impressive.

But how did he discover Kamui's weakness?

The moment of Kamui paused was only a fleeting instant.

Could it be that there was a slight opening in that Shuriken attack just now?

But is that one look enough to uncover all the details?

That's terrifying.

Obito Uchiha his eyes, a hint of surprise rising in his heart.

Although his combat experience was still somewhat lacking and his moves were somewhat immature, these shortcomings paled in comparison to his precise insight and judgment.

What's even more astonishing is that they dared to trust their judgment so completely after just one test; their audacity is almost outrageous.

A rare hint of appreciation flashed across his eyes.

"I really didn't expect you to be able to do this."
