"Obito!"
In the distant blizzard, the figure of Kakashi appears, looking incredulously at the detestable face of Obito.
Under the mournful cry of Kakashi, Obito, who had just fallen into madness, pauses, stiffly turns his head, and looks towards Kakashi, who gazes back at him with a disappointed expression.
"Kakashi!"
In a deep voice, Obito and Kakashi lock eyes, but things are no longer as they once were.
"Obito! Turn back!"
Kakashi's sad words gradually bring a fierce smile to Obito's face.
"Ha ha!"
With a maniacal laugh, Obito, looking at Kakashi from afar, points mockingly.
"Kakashi, you're talking about turning back? Did this world ever give me a chance to turn back?"
With a voice strained with anger, Obito's eyes are filled with madness, as he recalls the scene of Rin's death, over and over, further agitating his nerves.
"Kakashi! Give Rin back to me!"
"Senior Kakashi! The person before you is no longer the Obito you knew. He's a madman who killed the Fourth Hokage and his wife and countless villagers!"
Uchiha Shisui shouts to Kakashi from nearby.
Seeing the crazed Obito, Kakashi takes a deep breath, suppresses his emotions, and stares intently at Obito with a sharp gaze.
He uncovers his forehead protector, revealing his crimson Sharingan, which transforms into a Mangekyo Sharingan.
"Obito! Your sins are unforgivable. I will use your Sharingan to make you realize your mistakes!"
With a firm voice, Kakashi speaks as Obito, losing what's most important to him, grows more frantic.
"Ha ha ha~"
Amidst the maniacal laughter, the two Mangekyo Sharingan face each other.
The sudden scene at the Kage Summit confuses everyone.
The Akatsuki appears, threatening to cause division.
"Damn Akatsuki! Hand over the Tailed Beasts!"
The Fourth Raikage, A, roars in anger.
Obito watches as he had just declared the start of the Great Ninja War, only to be betrayed by the Akatsuki.
As if he's become a joke, he shows a fierce smile.
"Third Tsuchikage, Fourth Raikage, the Akatsuki has allied with Uchiha Yoru. All nine Tailed Beasts are in Yoru's possession. Don't you think you've picked the wrong side?"
With a sarcastic smile, Obito's words cause the Tsuchikage and Raikage's expressions to change drastically.
"Ha ha, how could I fall for such a clumsy provocation," says Onoki, the Tsuchikage, calmly, seemingly not believing Obito's words, but the Kage begin to become cautious among themselves.
This scene fell into the eyes of Uchiha Obito, who only saw mockery. Indeed, this is a filthy world.
"Nagato!"
Lifting his head, Uchiha Obito looked up at the towering Pain, a scornful smile curling at his lips.
"Nice move, but what a pity."
Under that sarcastic smile, in the next moment, the members of the Akatsuki on the bird trembled, their pupils showing the shadow of the Sharingan.
Genjutsu!
Meanwhile, Pain in the sky shuddered as if losing consciousness, and fell straight from the sky. Konan, standing by, showed a look of shock at this sudden turn of events.
"Nagato!"
Such a drastic change in Pain indicated that something had happened to the real body.
Boom!
In the distance, a great snowfall suddenly began to collapse, as if repelled, instantly forming a circular depression, wildly compressing towards the surroundings.
Super Tensei Shinra!
With a tremendous roar, a deep pit the size of Konoha Village appeared in the snowy field.
"Nagato!"
Caught off guard by the sudden change, everyone was overwhelmed. Konan cried out in shock as Nagato, having used the jutsu, gasped for breath, blood continuously flowing down his cheeks.
At this moment, Nagato's one eye socket was dark and bloody, with flesh swirling, blood flowing continuously, focusing intently on the distance with his remaining Rinnegan.
"Ha ha!"
Uchiha Obito laughed maniacally, and behind him slowly emerged a dark figure, Kurozetsu, who spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Obito, Nagato's legs are healed, but we only got one eye!"
A bloody and blurred eye appeared, and looking at the Rinnegan he had obtained, Uchiha Obito coldly smiled, "One Rinnegan is enough."
Clang, clang~
Instantly, Akatsuki's Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, Deidara, and Asuma appeared behind Obito. Unlike the others, Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, and Deidara's pupils showed the pattern of Mangekyo Sharingan.
"Hehe, the Akatsuki may be yours, but I have placed a seal inside them. I thought it wouldn't be necessary, but today, it proved to be a great help."
Under Uchiha Obito's mocking smile, he gestured for Zetzu to take the Rinnegan and retreat first.
Meanwhile, Konan and Nagato stood side by side in the sky, "Nagato, your eye!"
Gasping for breath, Nagato's face looked grim as he focused intently on Obito, "It's nothing, just an eye."
Uchiha Obito, with a murderous gaze, fixed his eyes on Nagato, ready for an imminent battle.
Meanwhile, the Five Kage watched the internal strife of the Akatsuki, each on guard.
However, how could Uchiha Obito let the Five Kage stay out of this? He sneered, "Third Tsuchikage, Fourth Raikage, just watch the show. After I am defeated, you will face the encirclement of the Akatsuki organization along with the ninja from Konoha, Mist, and Sand."
"You go and kill the Hokage, Mizukage, and Kazekage."
Uchiha Obito coldly issued the command, and behind him, Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, Deidara, and Asuma instantly burst out with powerful chakra and rushed towards the three Kage.
"Akatsuki! Return the Eight-Tails and Two-Tails to me!"
The Fourth Raikage A roared angrily, instantly bursting with lightning and attacking Nagato directly. This scene made the Third Tsuchikage curse the cunning Akatsuki.
"Wait for me!"
The Third Tsuchikage Ōnoki also feigned anger and targeted Rinnegan wielder Nagato.
Both are cunning and shrewd. The Akatsuki's targets are the Hokage, Mizukage, and Kazekage. Why should they stay and not help? But they don't really want to help.
The Akatsuki's internal strife is a good thing for them, so they targeted Nagato.
A wounded leader of Akatsuki, missing an eye. Defeating him, even if they can't take back the Tailed Beasts, they would still benefit from just one Rinnegan.
Moreover, it's two against one, with subordinates to help. If they can't win, they'll just run away and let them fight to the death here.
In short, the Raikage and Tsuchikage just wanted to take advantage of the situation for their own gain.
"Your opponent is me!"
Suddenly, Uchiha Obito appeared behind Konan, blocking her with his mysterious space-time ninjutsu.
"Konan, I can handle it here!"
Nagato, now seen as an easy target, instantly showed anger and signaled Konan with a look.
Bang bang!
With a series of hand seals, six figures in Akatsuki cloaks appeared around him.
The Six Paths of Pain make their entrance!
"Damn it, how can there be so many Rinnegan!"
Uchiha Obito, seeing the Tsuchikage and Raikage about to retreat, cursed them as cowards, but he had no choice but to rely on their power.
"These six are his puppets, their names are Deva Path, Human Path, Asura Path, Animal Path, Preta Path, Naraka Path, Outer Path... Their abilities are…"
Uchiha Obito shamelessly revealed all of Nagato's information, while Konan, fighting with her paper ninjutsu, also revealed Uchiha Obito's information to Uchiha Shisui and Kakashi Hatake.
"This so-called Uchiha Obito, his Mangekyō Sharingan ability is to become intangible, but he can only stay in the intangible space for a maximum of five minutes…"
Both sides betrayed each other, leaking information, and the battle erupted.
Meanwhile, Tsunade, the Hokage watching from a rooftop, saw the Akatsuki approaching but calmly waved her hand, "Leave these people to you for practice."
Uchiha Sasuke, Gaara, Kimimaro, Hōzuki Suigetsu, Temari, Hyūga Neji, the six bodyguards, immediately rushed out, directly facing the Akatsuki members Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, Deidara, and Asuma.
The Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumī, smiling seductively, teased, "It seems our opponents are coming too."
In the distant forest, Zetzu clapped his hands on the snowy ground, and suddenly, with a rumbling sound, seven coffins appeared.
Uchiha Fugaku, Uchiha Kagami, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Raikage, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, the Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu, Shimura Danzo.
"Obito!"
With a loud shout from Zetzu, Obito, who was on the distant battlefield, disappeared and appeared at the Edo Tensei location at the same time.
The seven people who appeared were all still shocked, and the Third Hokage, as if he knew something, angrily stared at Obito, who appeared behind him.
"Evil Uchiha, you actually play with the souls of the dead!"
However, the Uchiha Obito who appeared, at this time with a cruel smile looking at the Third Hokage, said, "Hehe, I have to thank you, the Third Hokage, for this. Otherwise, how could I have mastered this ninjutsu."
"Evil Uchiha!"
Under the Third Hokage's scolding, Obito inserted the Kunai seal controlling the seven people into their heads.
The next moment, the seven people resurrected by Edo Tensei showed white eyes, and they all revealed angry expressions.
"Damn it, despicable villain manipulating our bodies."
"Damn!"
Uchiha Obito, however, evilly smiled, "This ninjutsu is quite useful, and it was not a waste of time learning it."
"Go! Go find your opponents and fight!"
In an instant, the seven resurrected by Edo Tensei rushed out. Uchiha Fugaku's opponent was Kakashi, and Uchiha Kagami was Uchiha Shisui, as if it was a destined showdown.
The rest, originally heading towards Tsunade, Terumi Mei, and Pakura, encountered a change on the way.
"The strongest female ninja team of Konoha is here!"
Several giant snakes suddenly appeared. Of the five people resurrected by Edo Tensei, four dodged, only Shimura Danzo was trapped by a giant snake around his legs, and then heavily thrown to the ground.
Mitarashi Anko's hearty smile echoed on the battlefield, accompanied by Uzuki Yugao and Kurenai Yuhi.
At this moment, Kurenai Yuhi, a bit embarrassed, touched her nose and whispered to Anko, "Yugao, can you be a bit quieter next time."
"Kurenai, this is called momentum, don't you understand!"
The usually reticent Uzuki Yugao directly drew her ninja sword, coldly saying, "Edo Tensei bodies cannot be killed, prepare the sealing jutsu."
"You deal with the old ghost Danzo!"
Tsunade, standing on a distant rooftop, authoritatively ordered Mitarashi Anko, Kurenai Yuhi, and Uzuki Yugao, revealing a mocking smile as she watched the approaching enemies.
The Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Raikage, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, the Second Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu.
The four Kage-level powerhouses charged over, and Pakura, seeing this, narrowed her eyes, "I'll take on the Fourth Kazekage Rasa. I think I need to properly teach this shortsighted Kazekage a lesson."
New grudges and old grievances, finally able to be avenged.
And next to her, Terumi Mei shrugged her shoulders upon seeing this and teased with a laugh, "It seems I can only choose the Mizukage now."
"Young one, be careful!"
The Third Raikage, now unable to control his own body and still unclear about the situation, charged forward. Looking at the distant hats of the three Kages, he roared in anger, seemingly signaling the youngsters to quickly get out of the way.
However, the next moment!
Tsunade, with her imposing presence, let out a cold laugh. Her slender jade-like hand joints cracked crisply. Facing the extremely powerful strike from the Third Raikage, she countered instantly with her fist.
Boom!
Her slender jade hand, facing a fist several sizes larger, unleashed a terrifying power. The Third Raikage had no time to react and was sent flying by Tsunade's punch.
Super Strength Punch!
Under the full force of Tsunade's blow, the Third Raikage's body was smashed into the snowy ground, dozens of meters deep into the hard earth.
"How... How is this possible!"
At this moment, the Third Raikage inside the deep pit was shocked to see himself being sent flying by a punch. This terrifying power had already surpassed that of a Tailed Beast.
"Obito! You are too presumptuous!"
At this time, Tsunade shouted loudly, her hands quickly forming a seal, and she yelled at Terumi Mei and Pakura, "Stop playing, go all out, and finish off these old immortals in one fell swoop."
Wood Release: Advent of a World of Flowering Trees
Boom Boom~
Instantly, the earth trembled, and in this snowy landscape, terrifying trees and plants grew in an instant.
"Wood Release!"
Among those resurrected by the Edo Tensei, only the Third Hokage, Hiruzen, knew about Tsunade's awakening of Wood Release. The Third Raikage, the Fourth Kazekage Rasa, and the Second Mizukage Hōzuki Gengetsu had no idea.
"Hiruzen!" The Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, seeing Danzō being beaten in the distance, roared with fury.
At the same time, a vine whipped over. Sarutobi Hiruzen, with his strong will, resisted his controlled body for a moment. In that instant of pause, his body was whipped away, heading towards Danzō in the distance.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield, the figures of Uchiha Obito and Zetsu had already disappeared.
"It seems this forbidden jutsu is still somewhat imperfect."
At this moment, Uchiha Obito, hidden in the shadows, watched this scene and revealed a serious expression. The strong will of the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, caused a momentary delay, which was extremely dangerous for ninjas of their caliber.
"It seems better to have the Third Hokage and Danzō cooperate in battle."
"And you!" Uchiha Obito's cold eyes focused on Konan. Compared to confronting Nagato head-on, capturing Konan was more direct. He planned to use her as a threat to exchange for the remaining Rinnegan.
