"Withdraw?"
Black Zetsu tightened his grip on the scroll in his arms and asked the figure in front of him somewhat absentmindedly.
Ignoring the meteorite falling from the sky, Obito took a deep look at the reinforcements from Kirigakure and the imposing figure on Susanoo.
"Let's go," Obito replied coldly.
If it weren't for the unknown entity lurking in the shadows, Obito wouldn't have wanted to leave in such a sorry state.
I bet those idiots in Konoha all think Madara was Impure World Reincarnation by me using Edo Tensei...
Obito these thoughts in mind, Obito slowly disappeared into the Kamui Dimension.
Tsunade and the others, who had been keeping a watchful eye out of the corner of their eyes, frowned and let Obito leave.
Although extremely unwilling, they could no longer spare manpower to stop the threat from the sky.
" Summoning Technique!"
"Boss, Big Sister, thank you both for your help."
Jiraiya looked up at the sky, gathering his Senjutsu Chakra within him.
Having witnessed Mount Myōboku Gamabunta severe injuries, Fukasaku wife remained silent, crouching on either side of Jiraiya's shoulders, quietly channeling their inner power.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh,"
The meteorite, tearing through the air, began to glow with Kakkō at its base.
The intensifying whooshing sound of the wind being torn apart felt like a heavy stone pressing on their hearts; the members of the Anbu swallowed hard and held their breath.
"Go!"
Tsunade's loud shout broke the silence.
With Tsunade power unleashed, Tsunade leaped high into the air!
The ground cracked open, and a tiny figure clad in Hokage robe hovered in mid-air...
While feeling ashamed, the Konoha Anbu regained their confidence!
" Gate of Opening, Gate of Healing, Gate of Life, Gate of Pain, Gate of Limit, Gate of View!"
With a loud shout, Might Guy opened all six gates instantly and followed Tsunade without hesitation!
Jiraiya, now in his Sage Transformation, rapidly Hand Seals!
The Fukasaku couple, equally prepared, erupted simultaneously!
Jiraiya spewed out an oil field, Fukasaku used his Fukasaku Wind Release technique to propel it, and Shima added the intense heat from his mouth!
"Sage Art: Sage Art: Goemon!!"
The Gekko, blocked by the boulder, and the deep darkness, were once again illuminated by the rising pillar of fire!
" Heavenly Foot of Pain!!!"
Tsunade, already at the surface of the meteorite, delivered a full-force strike with her thighs taut! Even from a distance, the sheer power of the blow could be felt! The air itself seemed to tremble slightly!
" Morning Peacock!!!"
Following closely behind, Might Guy roared and his fists flew like phantoms!
Sparks Kakkō and large amounts of rubble flew everywhere!
A green giant rose from the ground, and Shuriken tens of meters long, formed from Chakra, shot straight into the sky!
Even without Haruma's instructions, Shisui understood that this was an excellent opportunity to improve his favorability.
"Click, click!"
Under multiple blows, the boulder split into countless pieces and slid down!
" Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!!"
Water Release: Water Wave Barrage!
Fire Style: Fireball Technique!
The Anbu below exerted their combined strength, shattering the cracked and falling boulder once more!
Gazing at the fallen shards, Kakashi, who was eager to help, felt his left eye inexplicably burning hot!
The location of the rubble that was being closely watched
Suddenly, the space began to fluctuate and swallowed the boulder in the blink of an eye!
"Well,"
Kakashi let out a muffled groan, and a bloody tear suddenly streamed down his left eye, which he had been covering.
From an endless boulder to the countless fragments it is today.
On Haruma, with his hands in his pockets, he looked up at the beautiful sight of a shooting star streaking across the sky, a slight smile playing on his lips.
The next day,
In the early morning in the suburbs, faint traces of gunpowder smoke still lingered.
Besides the numerous gullies, several meters of rubble can be seen everywhere.
Hokage Building.
Tsunade and the others quickly washed up, changed their clothes, and gathered here.
Tsunade, who holds the Hokage Position, and Shizune stand to the side holding a fragrant pig.
Kakashi, Jiraiya, and Shikaku stood opposite each other.
Might Guy, who opened six doors in a row yesterday, is still resting in the medical ward.
Hiashi, on the other hand, returned to his family first to deal with the backlog of documents.
"Have you made arrangements for those two Uchiha Clan?"
Tsunade up and asked.
Shizune quickly replied, "I took those two to the guesthouse, and there's a team of Anbu agents guarding them nearby."
Shizune, who had been busy all night, almost blurted out the truth about what he was being monitored.
Tsunade glared at Shizune, then nodded at Jiraiya.
" Summoning Technique!"
Katsuyu split off, Fukasaku the Toad, and a girl wearing an Akatsuki.
" Konan..."
Tsunade looked at the woman with a cold expression, and the image of her slowly overlapped with that of the thin little girl from her memories.
"You fought Obito last night?"
Konan asked directly.
Jiraiya nodded and stepped forward to recount in detail everything that had happened the previous night.
"Etc,"
Konan frowned and looked at Jiraiya, "Are you sure that guy wasn't in disguise?"
Jiraiya seemed to understand Konan's confusion and explained, "Just like the information you gave me, it's a space-time Dōjutsu technique."
"His true form, once revealed, is also Obito's."
"Last night, several people even Byakugan, confirming that it wasn't a clone or a substitute."
"It's still not right."
Konan shook her head. "To be honest, with your Konoha, I don't think you could make that person flee on their own, let alone have their mask shattered by you."
The frustration of letting Obito go, coupled with Konan's almost mocking words, instantly made Tsunade's face turn ugly!
"Bang!"
Tsunade on the table, glaring angrily, "Do you know how many people Konoha mobilized last night? How many Jonin and Anbu?!"
Do you even know how many resources were wasted?!
Just the Kunai and Explosive Tag thrown out last night were enough for Konoha to attack a small village!
Judging from Konan's tone, she actually felt that Konoha didn't even have the strength to shatter Obito's mask!
Konan remained silent, coldly staring at Tsunade, Chakra, comparable to that of a beginner Kage Level, surged forth instantly!
Just as the group was on high alert, Konan unleashed her power, saying, "Back in Kirigakure, that person's casual strike left me with no chance to retaliate."
Even Nagato, who has entered Nagato ranks of the Super Kage...
A hint of sadness flashed in Konan's eyes, then she continued, " Nagato was also killed by this person in a direct confrontation."
"According to you, that person didn't even use the Rinnegan's techniques last night before fleeing in a sorry state."
"Either he's being impersonated, or he has other motives and is just feigning weakness."
Upon hearing this,
The Konoha members frowned again. Had that person been hiding something during last night's battle?
Or is Konan lying...?
If Obito was just putting on an act last night, then what was his true purpose...?
Unmasking only makes the truth more elusive.
Tsunade looked at Konan, her eyes filled with uncertain emotions.
After a while
"I need you to provide Obito, and comprehensive intelligence on the Akatsuki."
"And if you want to avenge Nagato, you will also need our help."
Tsunade said with a serious expression, "I think we can reach a temporary cooperation agreement, what do you say?"
Although they are members of Akatsuki, this is still an opportunity to learn about those lunatics and Obito!
Upon hearing this, Konan's eyes remained calm, and she nodded in acceptance without hesitation.
Even the corpses of Yahiko and Nagato couldn't be protected...
At this moment, Konan's only thought was the determination to take Obito Uchiha to hell with her!
