Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

Konoha Village.

Seventh training ground.

Through his father's perspective, Naruto saw that the Wood Clone had been sent out, leaving him completely helpless against Obito. He frowned and said to Kakashi, "Sensei, please use it one more time."

Upon discovering that using Kamui would impair the Sharingan's vision, Kakashi's heart sank: "Is it still at the same scale as before?"

"It can be a little smaller, just big enough for me to send my clone in," Naruto said.

Kakashi nodded and used Kamui for the second time.

Naruto grabbed the javelin that his wood clone had transformed into, ready to throw it.

Space, in a spiral shape, twists and turns, and then…

Then no.

The space, which had been distorted for a moment, faded and returned to its original state.

"Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto asked, puzzled.

"I can't open it. There's a force that perfectly counteracts mine." Kakashi frowned.

Upon hearing this, Naruto immediately rushed to the Hokage's office and asked Tsunade to summon a slug and tell the Slug Sage to send Hinata back.

He intends to use Hinata's eye power, which seals off space and time, to capture Obito, and even kill him.

Even Madara Uchiha, the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, couldn't harm Obito when he activated his Hollowfication ability.

Naruto knew his own limitations; without restricting Obito's Kamui, he truly couldn't defeat Obito.

Hinata was quickly brought back by the Slug Sage, but unfortunately...

Obito has already run away.

"Naruto-kun, why did you call me back?" Hinata asked curiously.

Naruto wiped his face and smiled, "I missed you."

Ten minutes later.

While eating grilled pork belly, Naruto inquired about Hinata's training progress, and at the same time, he was thinking about things related to Obito.

It has to be said that Obito, who was implanted with Hashirama's cells, is really tough. It's not that he's particularly durable, but his self-healing ability is just amazing.

It was almost cut in half, yet it still managed to retain its mobility.

More than a decade ago, Obito was seriously injured after being hit by Minato's Rasengan. Now, despite enduring so many deadly attacks, Obito still possesses the ability to fight.

It appears that the integration of the interstitial cells with the soil increases with age.

This greatly enhanced Obito's vitality, recovery ability, and chakra reserves.

"I was too hasty. I shouldn't have used the Wood Release clones so cautiously; I should have gone myself." Naruto sighed inwardly, reflecting on his actions.

"With Hinata's help and her eye power that can imprison space and time, we can definitely defeat Obito, which is better than now... only getting a ninja tool as a trophy."

"We haven't even seen a shadow of Nagato or Black Zetsu, whom we're really looking for."

Through the Rinnegan, he plays with the Uchiha Flame Fan, which his Wood Release clone obtained in the Kamui dimension, from his father Minato's perspective.

Naruto kept reviewing his battle with Obito in his mind, trying to find his own oversights and shortcomings so that he could avoid them in the future.

Chapter 164 Izanagi

Imprisoning spell.

This was a backup plan that Madara implanted in Obito's heart, allowing him to control Obito at will, and Obito couldn't remove it on his own.

By using the power of the Rinnegan to examine Madara's memories, Naruto also learned that, in addition to this talisman, Madara had another plan with Obito.

It was incorporated into Hashirama's cells. Although its effect was not as strong as the binding talisman, it could still affect Obito's actions to some extent.

Naruto tried both methods one by one, but they were ineffective. Like the Flying Thunder God Technique, it could not be used across dimensions. Since Obito was in another dimension, this technique was unlikely to work.

"He can't stay in Kamui dimension forever, I still have a chance," Naruto thought to himself.

Minato's Flying Thunder God Mark.

Hinata's space-time blockade.

The imprisoning spell of the spotted one.

"Hinata, listen to me..."

~~~

Divine space.

Having recovered from his self-healing, Obito set out to find the Flying Thunder God Marks set up by Naruto's Wood Clone and destroyed them one by one.

“I wasn’t directly touched by him, and during the fight, the parts that came into contact with him didn’t show the Flying Thunder God mark.” Obito pondered.

"Naruto is fine, the problem is with the teacher... the Fourth Hokage."

"Is the Rinnegan a clone of the Six Paths?"

The Rinnegan couldn't possibly belong to Minato, and Minato died a long time ago. If he hadn't died, the Uchiha massacre wouldn't have happened.

"Unbelievable, how did he manage to have the Rinnegan?" Obito couldn't understand it.

Putting aside this unsolved mystery, the more serious issue is that he bears the Flying Thunder God mark left by Minato.

"I never expected that this mark would still exist more than a decade later."

Obito couldn't see his back, but he knew where Minato had hit him before.

He took a kunai, cut off the piece of flesh, and saw the Flying Thunder God mark on it. Obito took a deep breath, formed hand seals, and used Fire Release to burn it.

"That way, there will be no flaws."

No, Kakashina's Sharingan is the only weakness in the Kamui dimension.

With this in mind, Obito made up his mind to find an opportunity to retrieve the Sharingan. He couldn't afford to lose it so that the Eye of the Moon plan could proceed smoothly.

After checking the Kamui dimension one last time to make sure there were no problems, Obito left Kamui and returned to the outside world.

Konoha Village.

Through his Six Paths clones, Madara continued to use his chakra senses and sensed the appearance of the binding seal. Naruto said, "Hinata, it's time to go."

Hinata immediately put down her chopsticks and prepared her eye power.

My dad, Minato, can't sense the Flying Thunder God mark.

Naruto frowned at first, then, through Madara's perception of the talisman, he roughly determined its location.

He took Hinata's hand, activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, and jumped to the nearby place marked with the Flying Thunder God Technique.

The Sage Mode, which was maintained in its normal state, instantly sensed Obito's location.

Three o'clock position.

The distance is about three kilometers.

"Hinata." Naruto looked at Hinata.

Hinata nodded.

First, use Byakugan to see through objects, lock onto the target, and predict Obito's direction of advance.

Then, he activated the power of his Reincarnation Eyes to distort the space in that area in advance and set up a spatial barrier.

"It's done," Hinata said.

After waiting a while, Hinata said again, "He has entered the restricted area."

Ban, who was pretending to sleep outside the film set, clasped his hands together, forming only one mudra.

Immediately, Obito's body, beyond his control, mostly composed of Hashirama cells, was gradually covered by darkness.

Naruto, at full speed, charged toward Obito.

Using Yin-Yang Release, which belongs to the Rinnegan, two chakra rods were created. They were aimed at Obito from a distance and hurled at him with force.

One.

Two.

Three.

Seven chakra rods pierced through Obito's limbs and internal organs.

At this point, they entered the range of Merashiten's effect. Naruto activated Merashiten, and three invisible hands grabbed Obito and gouged out his Sharingan.

His right eye is his own, and his left eye belongs to some unlucky Uchiha.

"This is an eye-opener..." Obito, whose movements were restricted, whose eyes had been gouged out, and who was in the most wretched state, remained silent for a moment, then spoke with a slight smile.

"I guessed you wouldn't give up and would continue to target me, but I never imagined you had so many trump cards up your sleeve."

"The technique of suppressing spacetime was used to find that guy's corpse and then control it."

“It’s over,” Naruto said.

"Without the Sharingan and with your chakra sealed, you can't do anything."

Without getting close, Naruto used the invisible hand of Surishiten as a medium to activate Obito's Human Path ability and access his memories.

Search for parts related to Black Zetsu and Nagato.

"What can't I do...?" Obito chuckled in a low voice.

"Heh, I admit I underestimated you, but conversely, you also underestimated the Uchiha clan and the Sharingan."

Naruto frowned, noticing that he hadn't seen any recent memories related to Black Zetsu or Nagato, and that Obito hadn't seen either of them recently.

"I underestimated the Sharingan..."

With his eyes gouged out, Obito couldn't possibly react in time to this sudden attack. Madara's binding spell was incredibly powerful.

Why did Obito say that?
