More than ten minutes later, Obito finally heard the roar of the battlefield.
This brought a hint of joy to Obito's heart, and his previously anxious expression eased somewhat.
The sound of explosions indicates that the battle is still ongoing, which means that Rin and Kakashi are still safe and sound.
As a result, Obito's footwork became even faster.
But it was precisely that slight speed difference that led him to witness a scene that filled him with unbearable sorrow and despair.
In an instant, a thunderous roar, like Chidori singing in unison, resounded, followed by a dazzling blue light that caught the eye.
Kakashi wielded Chidori and pierced through the "enemy" with deadly force.
This was supposed to be an exhilarating moment for Obito, but instead, it felt incredibly ironic to him.
Because this "enemy" was none other than Rin, whom he had repeatedly instructed Kakashi to protect.
At this moment, Obito's inner world collapsed, and endless darkness and despair flooded his mind. Kakashi's betrayal and Kōki's disappearance made him feel abandoned by the entire world.
Rin's death made him feel even more strongly that the real world was exactly the hell that Ban had described.
Suddenly, an extremely cold and special Chakra appeared, and his Two-Tomoe Sharingan began to spin rapidly, skipping the Mitsudomoe stage and turning into a strange scythe-shaped pattern. His Mangekyō Sharingan had officially been activated.
"I'm truly in hell!" Obito were filled with tears as he stared at the despairing scene in the distance with a ferocious expression.
Just as they were about to rush out and make their move, a loud shout came from the forest on the other side, " Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence Jutsu!"
"Boom!"
The ground where Kakashi stood suddenly trembled violently, followed by countless tree roots rising from the ground and attacking the Kirigakure beside him.
In an instant, shrill screams echoed across the empty battlefield. In just a dozen seconds, the Kirigakure who were chasing Kakashi were killed by Wood Release without any chance of resistance.
Upon seeing this, Obito stopped in his tracks. He knew that Kōki had arrived, but this did not diminish the hatred and anger in his heart; on the contrary, it seemed to be intensifying.
He believed that Rin's death was largely due to Kōki's failure to keep his promise.
Just as he was about to confront Kōki, disregarding the plan he had discussed with Kōki, he heard Kakashi angrily shout at Kōki, " Kōki, why are you stopping me? You should know that if Rin returns to Konoha, what's inside her will cause immense damage to the Konoha!"
Just moments ago, as he used Chidori to kill Rin and stop Kirigakure's plot, his attack was deflected from its vital point by vines that suddenly appeared from the ground.
This indicates that Rin was only seriously injured by him, but did not die immediately. It also means that the Three-Tails inside Rin is still alive, and the Kirigakure's conspiracy can continue. That's why Kakashi is looking at Kōki with such anger.
Despite Kakashi's furious glare, Kōki remained unfazed, instead asking in bewilderment, " Kakashi- senpai, shouldn't I be the one asking the question? Why did you kill Rin-senpai? Didn't you know that even if the Three-Tails within Rin-senpai were released in Konoha, it would be stopped? Have you forgotten that I possess the absolute power to restrain the Three-Tails?"
Kōki didn't understand. If Kakashi killed Rin in the original story because he was forced to do so due to the dire situation in Konoha, then killing Rin now was completely unnecessary.
Because the current state of Konoha is many times better than in the original story.
Although the war suffered damage due to several major battles, Kōki's presence hastened its end.
Even though there was damage, it wasn't as severe as depicted in the original story.
It can be said that Konoha is still maintaining a relatively good level.
With such strength, even if Kirigakure were to allow the Three-Tails to wreak havoc in Konoha, they would have enough manpower to stop it, not to mention that they now have him, the Wood Release user who is the nemesis of Tailed Beast.
There was absolutely no need to sacrifice Rin to stop the Three-Tails ' rampage.
It was precisely for this reason that Kōki didn't pay much attention to Kakashi and Rin. He thought that even if Madara really did scheme against Obito, he would definitely find another way.
Who would have thought that Madara would actually be so stubborn as to carry out this plan? Even more unexpectedly, Kakashi, a genius, actually followed Madara's plan.
Speechless. His mother Gate of Opening for him, speechless to the core. Speechless all the way home.
Upon hearing Kōki's words, Kakashi's angry expression froze, and a hint of confusion flashed in his eyes.
Yes, he could have simply brought Rin back to Konoha and let the village solve the problem. Why did he choose such a tragic method to stop the plan?
The next second, before Kakashi could figure out why, an invisible spiritual energy appeared in his mind, as if it had shattered something, causing his thoughts to become hazy.
Before he could tell Kōki about his abnormality, everything went black before his eyes, and he collapsed straight onto the cratered ground.
Kōki paid no attention to Kakashi's collapse; the more important thing at the moment was to save Rin, whose body had been pierced by Kakashi's Chidori.
If Rin really dies, Obito will truly go insane.
So he leaped and landed beside Lin, whose mouth was covered in blood.
Rin was in dire straits. Although she wasn't instantly killed by Kakashi's Chidori attack, the powerful Lightning Release Chakra attached to Chidori damaged her internal organs.
Without highly skilled medical-nin, death would be the only outcome.
Fortunately, there is currently a medical-nin is one of the best in the Shinobi World in terms of Medical Ninjutsu.
Then, Kōki first created three Wood Clone. Two clones helped him keep watch over his surroundings, while one clone helped him treat the seriously injured Rin.
Immediately afterwards, a vibrant green light, full of life, emanated from Kōki's hands, and he began to treat Rin.
I don't know if it's because Rin was passively made the Three-Tails Jinchūriki, but her vitality is several times stronger than that of an ordinary person, and her recovery ability is also much stronger.
In addition, the attack missed the heart, a vital organ.
Kōki's treatment, he was quickly out of danger.
It can only be said that Rin's life was not meant to end. She was tricked and had Tailed Beast sealed inside her, but she was also able to survive because of the Tailed Beast. This is a case of fortune and misfortune being intertwined.
Although Rin is out of danger, this is all Kōki can do for now.
Because Kōki emerged in such a hurry, even though the medical scroll contained a lot of medical supplies, their effects were very limited. They were fine for treating ordinary injuries, but not enough for such a near-fatal injury.
Therefore, helping Rin out of danger and preventing her injuries from worsening is the limit that Kōki's Medical Ninjutsu can currently achieve.
If there were enough medication available now, then Lin would really be fine.
Even without medicine, White Zetsu would suffice; White Zetsu cultivated from Hashirama Cells are absolutely a panacea for medical treatment.
