"Hmph!"
Itachi snorted coldly.
"Amaterasu!"
Black flames instantly ignited on Obito!
"Aaargh!"
Obito let out a miserable howl!
Without his Mangekyo, he could not use Intangibility at all!
The ability that had once been enough to deal with Amaterasu now belonged to Feng Yao.
Black Zetsu acted decisively, immediately grabbing Obito and burrowing underground.
Unfortunately, several shuriken interrupted him!
Sensing danger, Black Zetsu immediately leaped away.
Sure enough.
Another mass of black flames appeared where he had stood-another Amaterasu!
Bloody tears streamed from Itachi's Mangekyo.
"Damn it!"
Black Zetsu wanted to save Obito.
But several Uchiha surrounded him.
Black Zetsu could only helplessly watch Obito howl in agony.
Black Zetsu was not particularly worried that Obito would die.
Sure enough, Obito finally could not endure it any longer.
Obito activated Izanagi, sacrificing a Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
Obito abruptly appeared beside Black Zetsu!
Beneath his mask, Obito's left eye had turned completely gray-white. His face was deathly pale, and sweat poured down like rain.
Clearly, Amaterasu had made him suffer considerably.
At that moment, Obito gritted his teeth, his eye filled with hatred!
"Feng Yao, Itachi, I won't let you get away with this!"
"Spiral, get me out of here!"
A white figure suddenly spun out from beneath Obito's feet, grabbed him, and pulled him underground!
Several Uchiha tried to stop them!
"Wooden Spike Technique!"
With himself at the center, Obito unleashed Wood Release: Cutting Sprigs!
Countless wooden spikes burst out of the ground.
They blocked the Uchiha's advance!
"What's poop like? I'm so curious..."
After saying this, Spiral White Zetsu pulled Obito underground and retreated!
Seeing that Obito had already left, Black Zetsu also burrowed underground and fled.
"Itachi, why aren't you chasing them?!"
An Uchiha clansman demanded furiously.
The other Uchiha were also clearly prejudiced against Itachi.
Itachi merely said flatly, "The task the clan head assigned was to obstruct their attack."
Itachi's Mangekyo looked farther into the distance.
He could see that large numbers of people were frequently present in that direction.
They were either Anbu or Root members.
Among them was a chakra signature Itachi knew very well!
Itachi's gaze was complicated.
He surveyed his surroundings.
Terrifyingly, as though some will were directing things, the nearby villagers had inexplicably disappeared!
How chilling!
At the Hokage Building.
The Third Hokage had put on the battle armor he had not worn in years.
In his hand was the Adamantine Staff Enma had transformed into.
Behind him stood Danzo, his lone eye gleaming coldly.
Danzo's gaze was like a venomous snake's.
The Third Hokage smoked, smoke drifting across his face.
"Old man, someone launched a surprise attack on the Uchiha!"
Just then, Jiraiya arrived beside the Third Hokage using the Body Flicker Technique.
Seeing the Third Hokage fully dressed for battle, along with Danzo, who had returned from the dead, his heart gave a thump.
An ominous premonition immediately rose within him.
"Old man, you..."
Jiraiya looked at the Third Hokage in disbelief.
The Third Hokage took a deep drag and said flatly.
"Jiraiya, I have no choice either. The Uchiha's existence has already seriously endangered the village's safety..."
"In a moment, you'll hold Itachi off. Danzo and I will deal with Fugaku."
"As for Feng Yao, someone will deal with him!"
"Old man..."
Jiraiya still wanted to persuade him.
"Enough, Jiraiya! If you still acknowledge me as your teacher!"
The Third Hokage sternly rebuked Jiraiya.
"Hmph, Jiraiya, the Uchiha have long since turned their backs on our Konoha, and you're still speaking up for them!"
"I said long ago that we should follow our teacher's words and eliminate the Uchiha as soon as possible!"
"Now look, they've produced four Mangekyo users. If Shisui hadn't died..."
"Otherwise, the situation would only be worse!"
Hearing Shisui's name, the Third Hokage glared fiercely at Danzo.
Are you proud of driving Shisui to his death?!
Shisui had originally served as a buffer between the village and the Uchiha.
If Danzo had not driven Shisui to his death, how could the conflict between the village and the Uchiha have become so intense?
By the time the Third Hokage learned the news, it was already too late. Shisui had jumped off a cliff and killed himself.
With matters having reached this point, he could only let it off lightly.
Jiraiya was utterly dispirited.
He looked toward the Uchiha compound.
He felt deeply ashamed.
Yes, I should have known long ago.
Feng Yao, you were right...
At that moment, Jiraiya felt utterly lost.
Elsewhere, the battle was deadlocked.
Kakuzu had already lost three hearts.
Sasori had already brought out his Third Kazekage puppet.
Orochimaru, meanwhile, maneuvered with considerable agility.
Juzo Biwa had it worst. At most, his strength was that of an elite Jonin.
His strength was not on par with Kage-level fighters like Kakuzu, Sasori, and Orochimaru.
As a result, he had suffered the most injuries.
Konan was also scrambling to respond, constantly dodging.
Watching this from the shadows, Deva Path Pain knew he could no longer hold back.
Behind him, Asura Path, Naraka Path, Human Path, Animal Path, and Preta Path, together with Deva Path himself, all appeared within the Uchiha compound.
The Six Paths of Pain drove back the enemies surrounding Konan, Kakuzu, and the others.
"How are you?"
Deva Path Pain asked, his voice cold.
But all Konan heard was Nagato's concern.
"I'm fine..."
Konan panted for breath.
Clearly, she had expended a considerable amount of chakra.
Kakuzu and the others were injured to varying degrees.
They all gathered behind Pain.
"How many floors do you carry a bag of rice up? Carry a bag of rice up two floors..."
"Ah, listen, if you want a bag of rice, I can give you one for free..."
A voice came from behind Deva Path Pain.
Deva Path Pain turned and threw a punch behind him!
A hand firmly caught Deva Path Pain's fist!
Deva Path Pain clearly saw the person before him.
He had a stern face, wore a dark blue robe, and had long black hair. A throwing knife hung at his waist, and a large Gunbai hung on his back!
Whoosh!!!
Kakuzu, Sasori, and the others also used the Body Flicker Technique in alarm to distance themselves from Pain and Feng Yao!
They had not reacted at all to how Feng Yao had appeared before them!
Not even Deva Path Pain...
Seeing this, the other five Paths of Pain also scattered!
"It's the clan head!"
Seeing Feng Yao and Deva Path Pain, the Uchiha burst into cheers.
"This isn't a suitable place to fight. Come somewhere with me!"
Feng Yao said with a smile.
Kamui activated!
Deva Path Pain-or rather, Nagato-sensed the movement of space!
This power was very similar to "Madara Uchiha's"!
Pain immediately tried to use repulsive force.
But before Pain could unleash it, his opponent forcibly sucked him into the Kamui Dimension!
The instant Pain, who had been sucked into the Kamui Dimension, landed,
he immediately summoned countless black receivers and hurled them in all directions!
"Quite cautious!"
Feng Yao activated Intangibility and sped through them!
Only then did Pain clearly see what this space looked like.
A bright sky.
Solid ground.
That was Pain's first impression of this space!
"So you're Feng Yao?"
Deep beneath Amegakure.
Nagato calmed down.
Discovering that his connection to the Six Paths of Pain had not been severed, Nagato inwardly sighed in relief.
Sure enough, a god was invincible!
