Part Time Employee in Konoha - Chapter 330: Living Hashirama and Dead Obito
On Turtle Island.
Outside the Falls of Truth.
Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Sasuke, and Uchiha Obito were present, along with Killer Bee and Yamato, as they sensed the arrival of Akihara Kagura.
The next moment!
A golden light appeared in their sight!
“He’s here!”
Uchiha Madara’s expression changed, and he moved instantly to intercept the golden light rushing towards him. In an instant, his body was hit by the golden light and was flung into the cliff wall by the high-speed Akihara Kagura!
Crash…
Crash crash…
Pieces of rock embedded in the cliff wall where Uchiha Madara had fallen crumbled down.
“Is he here?”
Akihara Kagura raised his fingers, having sensed the presence of the Nine-Tails within, and saw the Eight-Tails’ Jinchuriki blocking the waterfall’s entrance.
“It seems they’re all here…”
Akihara Kagura answered himself, nodding slowly, “Just in time, both the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails are here. I can carry out my plan directly!”
As soon as he finished speaking!
Akihara Kagura raised his palm!
A wooden dragon suddenly burst out from the forest, charging towards Killer Bee!
Killer Bee’s body swiftly transformed into the form of a tailed beast, opening his mouth to condense a Tailed Beast Ball, which he then shot straight at the wooden dragon’s head!
However…
The Tailed Beast Ball was caught in the wooden dragon’s mouth like a ball, and the dragon slowly absorbed its chakra, preventing it from exploding!
The next moment!
The wooden dragon spat the Tailed Beast Ball onto the Eight-Tails!
“Fool! Idiot!”
Killer Bee’s voice was filled with frustration!
“Wood Release: Smothering Binding Technique!”
Yamato hurriedly formed a hand sign, and wooden boards rose from the ground, attempting to stop the wooden dragon’s attack, but his Wood Release was ineffective in this battle!
The wooden dragon broke free from the restraining boards and continued charging towards Killer Bee. Uchiha Sasuke couldn’t just stand by; his eyes instantly revealed the Mangekyo Sharingan, and a purple Susanoo giant rose!
A huge bow appeared in Susanoo’s hand, and a series of purple arrows were fired, pinning the wooden dragon to the cliff, where it slowly transformed into a forest…
“You’ve become stronger, Sasuke…”
Akihara Kagura chuckled softly, his gaze falling on Uchiha Sasuke, with a hint of regret in his eyes: “When your life was destroyed, I gave you a new one, yet now you stand against me…”
“…”
Uchiha Sasuke’s heart trembled.
The purple Susanoo instantly dissipated into mist.
“But…”
Uchiha Sasuke clenched his fist, trying to strengthen his resolve: “But you… only wanted to use me to kill Itachi as revenge…”
“Moreover…”
“Now you want to destroy the ninja world!”
Susanoo rose again around Uchiha Sasuke, his resolve firm: “To protect Naruto, and to prevent you from destroying the ninja world, I must oppose you…”
The next moment!
The bow in Susanoo’s hand was raised!
A huge purple arrow was shot towards Akihara Kagura!
“Summoning Jutsu!”
Akihara Kagura raised his palm!
A familiar figure appeared in front of him!
A tall red Susanoo rose, raising a red shield to block the oncoming arrow!
“That is…”
Uchiha Sasuke’s eyes narrowed in disbelief at the sight of the red Susanoo: “You resurrected him too?”
Uchiha Itachi!
Using the Edo Tensei to resurrect Uchiha Itachi!
At this moment, four members of the Uchiha clan who had left the village were gathered together!
“Since you betrayed me…”
Akihara Kagura spread his palms, laughing softly: “Then you’ve lost my protection. Accept your fate!”
“I’m sorry, Sasuke…”
Uchiha Itachi raised his eyes, standing within the red Susanoo, slowly lifting his palm. “I didn’t expect to see you again in this manner…”
“It doesn’t matter.”
Uchiha Sasuke took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and reopened them, his expression becoming solemn. “Just as well, I have many questions for you. Who is telling the truth about the night of the Uchiha massacre? What was it all for?”
“Have you learned the truth?”
Uchiha Itachi finally had to admit this fact. Now that the truth of the massacre had been uncovered by others, his brother was once again forced into isolation…
So…
The plan to free his brother from the conspiracy must begin!
Uchiha Itachi sighed inwardly, walking step by step towards Uchiha Sasuke. “If you want to know everything, then defeat me!”
“Fine!”
Uchiha Sasuke gritted his teeth, controlling his Susanoo to instantly enter its fourth form, lunging towards Uchiha Itachi. “You are no match for me now!”
The two Susanoo clashed instantly!
The ground began to tremble!
The battle between these brothers resumed!
While they were fighting, Akihara Kagura’s gaze fell on Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Obito. He tilted his head slightly. “So… we don’t need to hesitate about our battle either?”
“You deal with them.”
Akihara Kagura ignored them, stepping towards the depths of the waterfall, seemingly unconcerned with Uchiha Madara and the others blocking his path. “I’ll go inside and capture the Nine-Tails first!”
Three figures emerged from the forest: the First Hokage Hashirama, the Fourth Hokage Minato, and the Second Hokage Tobirama!
“A bunch of evil Uchiha…”
Tobirama looked at the gathered Uchiha and spat disdainfully. “All these troubles in the ninja world are indeed caused by the Uchiha!”
Whether it was Akihara Kagura, Uchiha Madara, or Uchiha Obito, to Tobirama, these Uchiha were all evil. He didn’t care how harsh his words were!
“…”
Uchiha Madara’s forehead twitched.
Before Uchiha Madara could say anything, the three reanimated Hokage started their actions simultaneously. Akihara Kagura charged directly at Uchiha Madara, Minato at Uchiha Obito, and Tobirama at Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki!
Uchiha Madara directly engaged Akihara Kagura!
Facing Akihara Kagura, he didn’t have any special means, nor did he have time to support others. He could only find a way to delay the time!
However…
The rest depended on Uchiha Obito!
If possible, Madara didn’t want to revive the Ten-Tails. He didn’t want the ninja world to face the crisis of Kaguya’s resurrection…
Hopefully…
This guy would fulfill his wish!
While fighting Akihara Kagura, Uchiha Madara glanced towards Hashirama. His old friend Hashirama was approaching the Konoha ninja named Yamato…
Yamato felt a bit desperate.
Although…
He was the weakest…
Still…
He was assigned a powerful opponent.
“Lord First…”
Yamato sighed inwardly, clasping his hands together, hoping that the First Hokage would show mercy in this battle!
“Don’t be nervous…”
Hashirama chuckled softly, comforting the younger generation from the village. “And don’t be afraid, I’ll finish this quickly…”
“Don’t underestimate me, Lord First!”
Yamato’s eyes filled with anger, his hands forming a seal rapidly. Wooden planks sprouted around the First Hokage, attempting to bind him directly!
“An excellent technique!”
Hashirama raised his finger, sincerely praising his junior, then raised a fist to shatter all the surrounding wooden planks!
“…”
Yamato’s heart immediately sank into despair again.
It was as if adults were beating children here. Hashirama’s Wood Release was on a completely different level from Yamato’s, making Yamato scurry around in desperation…
Boom!
A figure was thrown to the ground!
Uchiha Madara’s figure was flung to the ground by Akihara Kagura’s kick!
“Lost an eye…”
Akihara Kagura looked down at Uchiha Madara, smiled lightly, and continued, “Perhaps with only one Rinnegan, you can still handle others in the ninja world, but it greatly affects our battle…”
Indeed.
Perhaps to deal with others, Uchiha Madara only needs one eye, but against Akihara Kagura, even two eyes are not enough, let alone just one? Especially since their taijutsu skills are very close…
With the loss of one eye, Uchiha Madara is even a bit slower in predicting Akihara Kagura’s movements and is completely no match for him!
“Hmph…”
Uchiha Madara stood up, wiped the corner of his mouth, sneered disdainfully, and retorted, “But you also have a Rinnegan… You should know why I gave one of my eyes to someone else, right?”
Uchiha Madara didn’t believe Akihara Kagura couldn’t figure it out! This guy’s mind is far more intricate than anyone else in the ninja world, even Black Zetsu is just a toy in his hands. He must have guessed Madara’s intention of giving that eye to Uchiha Obito!
“It’s just to revive my Edo Tensei…”
Akihara Kagura nonchalantly spread his palms and continued carelessly, “I am well aware of your plan, but I can’t stop it, can I? Because that guy still has a Mangekyou Sharingan, and Izanagi’s invincibility is enough to help him…”
“Exactly!”
A smile finally appeared on Uchiha Madara’s lips.
“But…”
Akihara Kagura suddenly smiled as well and continued with interest, “Madara, would you like to guess why I let you revive these Edo Tensei Hokages?”
“What… do you want to use them for?”
Uchiha Madara’s face darkened.
Though he didn’t know why…
It seemed like he had fallen into a trap! However, according to their plan, Uchiha Obito was to prepare to use the Outer Path: Rinne Rebirth before the battle began. As soon as he saw the three Edo Tensei Hokages, he was to act immediately. There was no time left!
On the other side!
Minato’s kunai directly slit Uchiha Obito’s throat!
Minato’s movements were extremely swift and fierce. Even with a Rinnegan, Uchiha Obito had no ability to resist under his assault!
Without Kamui, Uchiha Obito couldn’t last even a few seconds against Minato!
“Too late…”
Uchiha Obito’s voice came through again, his body faintly dissipating and reappearing in a safe place, hands already clasped together: “Madara, the first technique has already started. I only have this one chance!”
“Obito?”
Minato looked at his student in surprise.
The attack…
Failed?
“Sensei… I’m sorry…”
Uchiha Obito looked at his teacher and slowly shook his head, “I have entrusted everything to Kakashi. This time against you, I have prepared only two techniques…”
“One technique is Izanagi…”
As Uchiha Obito spoke, the transplanted Mangekyou Sharingan in his eye faintly glowed, indicating the use of Izanagi: “This technique allows me enough time to escape Sensei’s pursuit and use another technique…”
Minato, with his kunai, appeared beside Uchiha Obito. No matter how many times he killed his student, it was useless!
During the duration of Izanagi…
Any unfavorable reality for Uchiha Obito would turn into a dream!
With his hands clasped, Uchiha Obito, in Izanagi’s invincible time, roared, “Outer Path: Rinne Rebirth!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a white light emerged from the three Hokages present. The Rinne Rebirth was completed under the support of Izanagi!
“As long as I can revive Sensei and the others…”
Uchiha Obito took a deep breath, looking at Minato in front of him, watching the white light emerging from his teacher, disregarding Uchiha Madara’s obstruction. His long-tense mind finally relaxed: “There is still hope to correct everything…”
With the combination of Izanagi and the Rinne Rebirth, no one could stop Uchiha Obito from reviving the three Edo Tensei Hokages!
The most bizarre thing was…
Uchiha Obito was still alive!
Izanagi could even alter the inevitable fatal outcome of the Rinne Rebirth, turning any unfavorable situations into mere illusions. The cost for this was just a transplanted three-tomoe Sharingan, though it’s uncertain how much longer he can live…
Nevertheless…
Uchiha Obito has achieved his goal.
No one cares about him now; the most important thing is the resurrection of the three Hokage!
With a flash of white light, the bodies of Hashirama, Tobirama, and Minato glowed momentarily. They clearly felt the revival of life force within them!
At this moment!
They also broke free from the control of the Edo Tensei!
Tobirama was the first to realize the reversal of the situation!
“Big brother!”
“Madara!”
Hashirama felt the surge of overwhelming life force within him in disbelief!
This is…
His strength at its peak!
Minato, not paying attention to his own resurrection, looked at his student in astonishment. Instinctively, he reached out to support the collapsing Uchiha Obito, his expression becoming increasingly complex.
“Obito… you…”
“I’m sorry, Sensei… It was my fault that you all died…”
Uchiha Obito, sitting dejectedly in the water, struggled to speak: “Now… this is just a small redemption… Kill me, Sensei. I want to see Rin… The rest, I leave to you all!”
“…”
Minato hesitated, unable to make a move.
Although this student had been misled and caused the Nine-Tails Incident, resulting in the deaths of himself and Kushina, he was now also striving to protect the ninja world and had even helped free himself and the first two Hokage from the Edo Tensei…
Just as Minato was about to refuse…
A figure appeared on the ground!
A pitch-black hand suddenly pierced through Uchiha Obito!
“It’s alright…”
“I’ll help you, Obito…”
Black Zetsu’s hand pierced through Uchiha Obito’s chest with a sinister smile!
Uchiha Obito used Izanagi to evade the inescapable death of the Rinne Rebirth, but he couldn’t escape the shadow from the darkness!
“Black Zetsu!”
Black Zetsu crushed Uchiha Obito’s heart, looking at Uchiha Madara with indifference, and continued with interest: “Madara, your plan is also within our control. You want to fully revive Hashirama…”
“Exactly…”
“We want to do that too.”
“Because both your and Hashirama’s chakra are at their peak, second only to the Sage of Six Paths. Among the reincarnations of Asura and Indra I’ve seen, you are the closest to them…”
“The living you…”
“Are the most valuable treasures in this ninja world…”
“The dead Obito…”
“Will become the irrefutable proof of the alliance between me and Kagura!”
Black Zetsu’s lips curled into a sinister smile as he withdrew his hand from Uchiha Obito’s chest!
“Rin…”
Uchiha Obito collapsed to the ground, blood gushing from his chest!
“Do you think you can see Rin?”
Black Zetsu, looking at the still murmuring Uchiha Obito, sneered: “Obito, you were the most useful pawn. Even in death, you cannot be spared…”
“What do you mean?”
Uchiha Obito’s remaining Rinnegan widened involuntarily!
This guy…
He still wants to use him!
“Because your Kamui space is something Kagura needs…”
Black Zetsu, looking at the dying Uchiha Obito, continued with a grin: “You, who resurrected the Edo Tensei, will now become Kagura’s new Edo Tensei! He really needs your Kamui space!”
“Finally…”
“I can be a little relieved.”
Akihara Kagura slightly flexed his fingers: “As long as this guy is reincarnated, I’ll have a safe space. At least, when that’s revived and if they want to attack me, I’ll have a place to go…”
“You think too much…”
Black Zetsu, looking at Akihara Kagura, lightly laughed and spoke good words for Kaguya Ōtsutsuki: “Mother is a kind person! How could she attack you? Now I’ve helped you kill Uchiha Obito and obtained his body, so you can rest assured, right?”
