Starting with Naruto, I'll become stronger through my own efforts.

Chapter 310 The Fifth Hokage popped up.

Time flew by as the four of them chased each other.

Obito Uchiha's body healed rapidly, but his heart grew increasingly panicked.

No one has ever tried to place ninjutsu or ninja tools in the space where his body is while he is intangible, and no one knows what the final result will be.

But Obito Uchiha really didn't dare to try.

If his heart and brain were shredded by the Rasengan the instant the illusion turned into reality, could he really still survive?

What's even more infuriating is that Naruto Uzumaki would place the Rasengan at Obito's center of gravity to make it harder for Obito to dodge, while always maliciously shifting his hand a few inches to the left or right.

That position was really awkward; even if no harm was done, it would still make Obito Uchiha break out in a cold sweat.

Obito was forced to jump around by the three Chunin from Team 7, and before he knew it, his twisted killing intent had dissipated.

Three Chunin managed to make the mighty Obito Uchiha look utterly humiliated; it's truly shameful.

What?

Was Obito Uchiha also a Chunin?

Okay, then it's fine.

When Obito Uchiha's Hollowfication reached its limit and could no longer continue, he chose to suddenly deactivate it just as Sasuke Uchiha's kunai pierced through his body.

Something amazing happened.

Obito Uchiha and Sasuke Uchiha's kunai did not overlap; instead, an extra space appeared out of nowhere, causing the overlapping matter to shift apart.

As the two Uchiha were staring at each other in bewilderment, Naruto Uzumaki activated [Swift Release] and started [Emperor Engine], transforming into an invisible whirlwind and rushing over.

He punched the still-unconscious Obito Uchiha away, grabbed Sasuke with his other hand, and charged towards Sakura Haruno.

When the three Chunin from Team 7 reunited, Obito Uchiha finally realized what was happening. His aura exploded, and his forgotten killing intent returned.

After a game-like prelude, the real battle is about to begin.

Naruto Uzumaki cracked his neck and said, "Sasuke, Sakura, give it your all."

"If you can't hold out, hurry up and catch up with the main force, and call for backup."

Sasuke Uchiha scoffed, "Naruto, you may be stronger than me, but I'm still very strong, okay? Who says you have to run away when facing a Kage-level ninja?"

Sakura Haruno felt the boiling chakra brought by the [Yin Seal Release] within her body, and was also eager to fight against the powerful enemy.

The chase they had just completed gave them both a great deal of confidence.

Naruto Uzumaki shook his head and said, "I knew you wouldn't give up, but you have to go all out, and if things really get too bad, you have to run."

"After all, this guy was the culprit who drove the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha and killed the Fourth Hokage."

Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno were taken aback: "What? It's that mysterious Uchiha who fought the Fourth Hokage?"

Sasuke took a deep breath and nodded, "I understand, Naruto. I'll give it my all. If it doesn't work, I'll retreat with Sakura and won't hold you back."

Sakura Haruno also said, "I will go with Sasuke. Before I leave, I will leave Slug-sama to support you."

Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno exchanged a glance, then simultaneously bit their right thumbs and formed hand seals to unleash a ninjutsu.

[Spiritualism]

After the two large plumes of white smoke dissipated, a crimson serpent and a blue-and-white slug appeared on the battlefield, as if a reunion of the legendary Sannin of Konoha was about to take place, or perhaps a gathering of the three great holy lands.

Unfortunately, the giant toad from Mount Myoboku was missing.

The sight of two giant summoning beasts, each over 15 meters tall, made Obito Uchiha frown slightly, but he wasn't afraid; he just felt a bit of trouble.

A huge size does not necessarily increase combat power, otherwise the tailed beasts would have been invincible long ago. However, a huge size certainly brings amazing defense and endurance, and they will not be easily defeated.

Obito clicked his tongue, thinking to himself, "If I had known he was a disciple of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, I should have come with Deidara."

But thinking about his disheveled appearance just now, he muttered with relief, "Oh well, it's better that he didn't come. It's just a bit of a hassle."

.

"Besides, without the Akatsuki members around, I can use ninjutsu more effectively."

Obito Uchiha formed a single hand seal and used the power of his inner half of his body. This time, the scale of chakra he mobilized was unprecedented.

[Wood Release: Descent of the Sea of ​​Trees]

The earth trembled, the yellow sand rippled, and then half-dried branches emerged from the sand, binding the giant serpent Xinya and the slug.

The giant red serpent, Shinya, was not skilled in fire-style techniques, but rather in earth-style sage techniques. It opened its mouth and spat out a transparent sap, instantly petrifying any branches that came into contact with it, completely losing their vitality and resilience, and was easily crushed by the serpent's body.

Slugs are the ninja beasts in the ninja world least afraid of being entangled or injured. When entangled by a half-dried branch, they split into tens of thousands of palm-sized slugs, which then began to gnaw on the branches created by Wood Release.

Clearly, these branches were a delicious treat to the slugs, and the rustling sound of them gnawing on them even drowned out the squeaking and creaking of the branches as they grew.

Obito Uchiha was surprised that his Wood Release was so easily broken, but he was not discouraged. Instead, he made hand seals with his fingers flying, finally stopping at the "Tiger" seal, and put his hands to his mouth.

[Fire Release: Great Flame Annihilation]

It was the ninjutsu that the Uchiha were most skilled at. A towering flame burst from Obito's mouth, the flames piling up and rising in layers, transforming into a scorching red giant wave.

The towering flames, like surging waves, instantly engulfed the forest created by Obito Uchiha, igniting the entire forest area of ​​several hundred square meters and turning it into a true sea of ​​fire.

The air was hot and distorted, turning the barren forest into a scorching inferno!

The giant snake, Shinja, held Uchiha Sasuke in its mouth and burrowed into the yellow sand, avoiding the scorching flames.

The slugs were too scattered. A single small slug could not withstand the scorching flames, so they could only gather together as much as possible, turning into a dozen or so large slugs, and forcefully break through by spewing acid.

The slugs did not forget Sakura Haruno, and together they helped her escape the sea of ​​fire.

Naruto Uzumaki was the only one left in the fire, but his body was covered with an orange flame tailed beast cloak, and a fluffy flame tail stood behind him.

He cooperated with Kurama and entered the One-Tail state of half-tailed beast transformation. Relying on Kurama's stronger flames, he completely ignored the small flames spewed out by Uchiha Obito.

"Here we go!" Naruto bent over, assuming a charging stance.

"The troublesome guys have all been driven away, let's go!" Kurama shouted in Naruto's mind, filled with the passion of battle.

BOOM!

Naruto stomped a large hole in the ground and charged towards Obito Uchiha like a fiery meteor, creating a path through the sea of ​​fire.

Obito Uchiha was shocked and instinctively used his strongest fire-style defensive technique.

[Fire Release: Uchiha Flame Formation]

Naruto Uzumaki's right hand, wrapped in a thick layer of Nine-Tails chakra, conjured a sharp claw that slammed into the red wall of flames.

Amidst the deafening roar, Naruto failed to break through the walls of the fire array and was thrown over by the recoil, feeling dizzy.

Obito Uchiha regained his composure and sneered at Naruto Uzumaki, who was standing right in front of him, "The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki dares to appear before me? You're asking for death!"

Obito quickly formed hand seals and, using the blood in his body, performed a summoning technique.

Summoning Jutsu: Nine-Tailed Fox

The Nine-Tails inside Naruto suddenly felt a tightness in its body, only then realizing that it was once again controlled by the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan.

It turns out to be a Sharingan seal left by Madara Uchiha. Although it had already been used by Obito once, and a full 16 years had passed, it could still be activated by another pair of Mangekyou Sharingan at a relatively close distance.

Although this time it will not directly suppress the Nine-Tails' will or replace its spirit, it still demonstrates enough power to pull it out of its seal.

"No! Naruto!" Kurama roared in terror, "Damn Uchiha Madara! Damn Uchiha Obito! You're not allowed to hurt Naruto!"

Obito Uchiha grinned smugly; the Nine-Tails was about to be his.

At this crucial moment, the Fifth Hokage, Natsume, suddenly spoke from within the Nine-Tails' seal: "Who is it?"

"Who dares to break the seal I've reinforced on the Nine-Tailed Fox?"

"Don't you know that Naruto Uzumaki is my disciple, Xia Zuo's disciple?"

"You're courting death!!"

Nine-Tailed Fox: "————"

The dumbfounded fox was stunned. Wasn't this the seal that imprisoned him?

Why can just anyone hide in here?

Oh, it doesn't seem that casual.

Previously, it was the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and his wife who set up the seal. As the designer and builder, it's normal for him to leave himself a backdoor.

Now the strongest ninja in the ninja world, the Fifth Hokage, Sasuke, as the one who reinforced the seal twice, it's perfectly normal for him to leave himself a backdoor.

Basic procedures, don't overdo it!

But in the end, this is the seal of its nine tails. Doesn't anyone respect the owner of the seal?

Without needing anyone's answer, Kurama (the Nine-Tails) gave up on its own.

The owner of this seal is essentially a prisoner imprisoned within it; Naruto Uzumaki is the jailer, while the Fourth and Fifth Hokage are the wardens.

There was indeed no right for Kurama to speak.

But then, thinking about her current situation, Kurama suddenly felt that having a powerful warden was not so bad, at least she wouldn't be easily captured by the Mangekyou Sharingan anymore.

Just as Kurama was expecting the Fifth Hokage to manifest a form of condensed chakra, like the Fourth Hokage, and repel the invading Mangekyou Sharingan's ocular power, a massive ocular power suddenly emerged from the sealed space.

It was indeed ocular power, not chakra, and in both quality and quantity, it far surpassed that Mangekyou Sharingan.

Kurama couldn't understand. Although the Fifth Hokage was famous for his many bloodline limits, he had never heard of him having a bloodline limit of the eye technique type.

The immense power of the eye coalesced, revealing a red nine-tomoe Rinnegan.

Nine-Tails was only glancing at this eye out of the corner of its eye when it was stunned by the terrifying power of the eye and lost consciousness.

The Nine-Tomoe Rinnegan fixed its gaze on the Mangekyou Sharingan power that was pulling at the Nine-Tails, and with a flash of its eyes, it ruthlessly severed it.

Then, the nine-tailed fox was thoroughly cleaned from head to tail, completely eliminating any potential dangers.

Then, this terrifying eye projected terrifying ocular power, flowing upstream along the Mangekyou Sharingan's ocular power, directly rushing into Obito Uchiha's eyes, and further into his brain.

Obito Uchiha felt as if he had been struck by a heavy hammer, his Mangekyou Sharingan instantly becoming bloodshot.

If that eye power hadn't sensed the Sharingan's limits and deliberately withdrawn some of its power, this precious [Kamui] Mangekyou Sharingan would have exploded on the spot.

However, Obito Uchiha temporarily lost his sight, and his head was buzzing. He couldn't hear anything and could only stand stiffly in place, barely maintaining his balance so that he wouldn't fall forward onto the wall of flames of the [Uchiha Fire Formation] and be burned to ashes by his own ninjutsu.

Thank goodness for this wall of flames, otherwise, once he recovered, the menacing Naruto Uzumaki would definitely have rushed up, gouged out his eyes, and then knocked off his dog head.

In fact, Naruto was so frightened that his hands and feet went weak. When the Nine-Tails was controlled by the opponent's Mangekyou Sharingan and pulled outward, he felt unprecedented pain.

Tailed beasts are said to have inexhaustible chakra, but this actually refers to their ability to replenish it continuously. Within a limited time, the chakra of a tailed beast also has an upper limit.

However, even the tailed beasts with the least chakra still have far more chakra than ninjas, except for chakra-monsters like Hashirama Senju, Sasuke, and Kisame Hoshigaki.

Therefore, forcibly sealing so much chakra into the human body is an extremely painful process.

No matter how perfect the seal design is, no matter how skilled or experienced the ninja who performs the technique, it cannot alleviate the pain that the Jinchuriki suffers when sealed.

Every Jinchuriki who survives the sealing of a Tailed Beast is a powerful individual who combines strength and luck; the Uzumaki clan's bloodline itself is a form of good fortune.

However, all the surviving Jinchuriki regarded the sealing process as taboo, and remained silent about the pain they experienced, as if just thinking about it would make them want to die from the pain.

Many of the Jinchūriki even turned against their villages because the sealing process was too painful.

For example, Rōshi, the Four-Tails Jinchūriki of Iwagakure, became mortal enemies with the Third Tsuchikage.

Becoming a Jinchūriki is already excruciating, but to have something this big pulled out of your body would be fatal.

Successfully sealing the beast and becoming a Jinchuriki means that the ninja's meridians have expanded to their maximum extent, enough to contain the chakra of the tailed beast.

Such changes in the internal chakra environment are irreversible. Once the tailed beast is extracted, the meridians that have expanded to their maximum extent will collapse, leading to meridian congestion and ultimately endangering life.

Don't delude yourself into thinking that resealing the Tailed Beasts will save the Jinchuriki's life.

How can a collapsed train tunnel be reopened by train?

It is clear that the collapsed tunnel can only be reopened by reconstruction.

A Jinchuriki whose Tailed Beast has been extracted is considered dead. Only by using a super ninjutsu to revive them can they be brought back to life.

Naruto Uzumaki had just experienced the excruciating pain of his meridians being torn apart, and at the same time, he felt the approach of death.

There is great terror between life and death.

Naruto Uzumaki was truly terrified.
