After throwing the Fourth Mizukage into the Kamui Dimension, Obito waved his hand, restoring his coral-covered arm to normal.
He had to admit that once Karatachi Yagura, his former plaything, broke free of his control, he had developed quite a few ways to counter him. He had nearly caught Obito in his trap.
Given his current physical condition, even if Obito had won after being hit, it would have been an ugly victory.
But while Karatachi Yagura had grown, Obito had not stood still either. Through repeated battles of life and death, he had gained valuable experience and become considerably stronger than before.
Even against a Kage supported by several Elite Jonin, he still stood a fighting chance.
Activating Kamui, he looked through the vortex at the Fourth Mizukage inside the Kamui Dimension. The youthful-looking Mizukage was unleashing Tailed Beast Bombs, wantonly destroying the rocks within.
Obito had no intention of dealing with his captured prey just yet. In a flash, he appeared where Hiruko was.
The injured Hiruko was receiving treatment from Shinnō, but signs of collapse still showed across his body. It would hardly have been surprising if his flesh dissolved the next moment.
The Chimera Technique was, after all, a forbidden technique that forced disparate bodies to fuse. The risks were enormous.
After glancing at Hiruko, Obito asked in an utterly indifferent tone, "Where is the Six-Tails Jinchuriki?"
Shinnō looked up at Obito, then pointed him in the right direction.
Without looking back, Obito headed toward the spot where Utakata was hidden. Utakata remained unconscious. Dressed in a feathered robe, he could hardly be considered a competent Jonin; he was more like an ordinary person who had mastered the power of a tailed beast.
Hozuki Mangetsu and Zabuza, who were guarding Utakata, turned their eyes toward Obito.
