Faced with Fire Release on such a scale, Obito looked startled, then turned intangible to evade the attack.
Obito could turn intangible, but Shukaku could not. After taking a heavy punch from Zou Hyuga, Shukaku staggered several steps back, while Oto Uchiha held Samehada and watched Obito warily.
Killing Obito in a head-on battle was almost impossible. Only Space-Time Ninjutsu could counter Space-Time Ninjutsu.
After their last failure, however, Zou Hyuga and Oto had temporarily abandoned the idea of killing Obito.
Aside from his Space-Time Ninjutsu, Obito was not all that powerful. He was merely at Kage Level.
Pressing his palm against Shukaku's body, Zou Hyuga quietly absorbed Shukaku's chakra, sensing how it differed from Moryo chakra.
In terms of quality, there was little difference between Shukaku's chakra and Moryo's.
But Shukaku's chakra lacked the darkness within Moryo's. It was simply wild and violent, like an untamed beast.
Sensing ripples in space, Zou Hyuga withdrew his hand and looked toward Obito.
Obito happened to be looking his way as well. The moment their eyes met, wooden spikes shot from Obito's sleeves.
Does he really think I'm an easy target? Zou Hyuga fired off several Vacuum Palms, then used the secret technique Rotation before Obito could draw close.
In an instant, every attack near Zou Hyuga was deflected.
Using Intangibility, Obito entered Rotation's range directly. As soon as it ended, he aimed his scythe at Zou Hyuga's heart.

The spatial distortion arrested Zou Hyuga's movement. Unable to move at all, he could only look shocked.
"You can't escape!" Obito grinned, discreetly glancing at Shisui and Oto as they tried to come to Zou Hyuga's aid. Clearly, they were already too late.
Just then, Obito caught
