His body had been pierced through.
"Wood Style: Wood Spikes!" Obito Uchiha's figure eerily appeared beside the Asura Path. Just as the wood growing from his palm was about to pierce the Asura Path, a powerful blast of air erupted from behind it and passed through Obito Uchiha's body.
Shared vision?
Obito Uchiha narrowed his eyes. The wood growing from his palm struck the Asura Path and rapidly expanded. The Asura Path's body swelled as though something were about to burst out from within it. "Bang!"
The rapidly growing wooden spikes compressed together and grew into a massive tree soaking in the lake. Metal parts fell from the Asura Path's no-longer-human-shaped body into the water, splashing up droplets.
Nagato, if you stop now, I'll pretend none of this ever happened.
Obito Uchiha frowned. Nagato could not die yet. He still needed Nagato to summon the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. With his own abilities, he could not support two Rinnegan. Besides, his right eye's Kamui worked quite well—replacing it with a Rinnegan would be a huge loss!
"Stop? Even now, you think I'll let you manipulate me? Yahiko's death, and the deaths of the companions you killed—I'll make you pay for them in blood today!"
The Animal Path rapidly formed hand seals and pressed a hand against the lake's surface.

"Banshō Ten'in! Hm?"
Seeing Obito Uchiha remain completely
