The boss in Chapter 22 hasn't entered the second phase yet.
Without a doubt, the Rejuvenation Roar skill is incredibly applicable to the ninja world, especially for the Uchiha clan, whose twisted personalities and ability to become stronger through madness are truly remarkable.
Not to mention that at this moment, Obito Uchiha also has Tobi, the ultimate augmentation armor, with him!
Afei's ability is extremely special; he can maximize the host's power and then amplify and strengthen it countless times.
During the Fourth Shinobi World War, Tobi enveloped Tenzo and activated the Wooden Golem Gundam, taking on a thousand enemies single-handedly.
Therefore, facing Obito, who has now awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan and possesses the First Hokage's cells, Tobi can indeed unleash even greater combat power.
But that's enough.
Whether it was to motivate Xian Er or to prove his potential, that was enough.
"You can't hold on any longer, Obito. If you keep fighting, you'll go blind and die here."
"No, I can still do it, I can still fight, I want to..."
Obito looked up, his Mangekyou Sharingan was bloodshot, and his tattered mask was stained red with flowing blood and tears.
He activated his pupil power, took a step, and tried to continue fighting.
But soon he found that he could not move his body at all.
It's Ah Fei!
The power boost that was once as easy as using his own arms now seemed to have turned into shackles, restricting everything he did, and even actively beginning to drag him down into the ground.
"Obito! Let me go, Obito! I'm going to kill them, I want to be with Rin!" Obito struggled frantically, but he was already at his limit and could not break free from the White Zetsu's restraints.
"Calm down, Obito. That guy's chakra and other aspects haven't fluctuated much. He's probably holding back his strength. Even if you fight with all your might, you're no match for him."
"Retreating now will at least save your life. Do you really want to die at his hands and then be taken back to Kirigakure with Rin and Kakashi?"
"Then everything is truly over!"
Lin...
Yes, and Lin too...
I can't just die like this. What will happen to Lin if I die?
That traitor Kakashi is still alive, and that damned Mist Ninja is still alive. I absolutely cannot die like this!
"Ah... Ahhhh!!!"
In the end, all the anger, resentment, and pain turned into a heart-wrenching roar, as if it were trying to tear out the very soul.
Under Tobi's forceful control, Obito's body began to sink into the ground, as if trapped in a swamp. He finally raised his head, his distorted face, stained red by blood lightning, now resembling a demon from hell, staring intently at Makoto.
"Makoto Kurita... I don't accept this! I don't accept this kind of world!"
"I will come back, I will come back someday..."
"I will create a world with Rin... and then drag you all... drag you all into hell!!"
Accompanied by a mournful curse, Obito's figure sank completely into the ground, but the lingering sound filled with endless resentment sent a chill down the spines of all the Mist Ninja present.
Makoto Koji stood still, completely ignoring the barking of the losers.
After waiting a moment to make sure the guy was completely gone, Makoto Kariju also dispelled the Early Fern Dance and stepped out of the Bone Forest.
He was slightly out of breath, and his face was a little pale.
The Dance of the Early Fern is extremely taxing. Although the bloodline limit copied by the Hand of God can be used perfectly, he still has to bear the costs and burdens himself.
If the fight continues and Tobi continues to provide chakra to Obito, Obito will likely have to use the Yin Seal.
Hmm, the BOSS hasn't entered the second phase yet.
Having dealt with Xian Er, the losses from mission failure have been minimized, but the real trouble is probably only just beginning.
When Makoto Koji turned around, he saw a group of Kirigakure subordinates with complex expressions, a mixture of awe and some doubt.
With the help of others, Aoki managed to stand, his gaze towards Makoto Karatachi filled with complex emotions—gratitude, shock, and awe.
Needless to say, the other Mist Ninja were also involved.
The battle they had just witnessed was completely beyond their comprehension. The mysterious masked man's power was bizarre and immense; the combination of Wood Release and space-time ninjutsu was utterly devastating. Yet, their Captain Cheng had repelled him head-on!
Extreme speed.
Fierce combat skills.
There's also the Corpse Bone Vein!
Captain Makoto... how do you possess such power?!
Gouju Cheng could naturally sense the tension in the air and felt helpless.
This time, it seems the truth can no longer be hidden.
"Ahem, well..."
"Captain Cheng!"
Before Makoto could speak, Aoki took a deep breath, looked around and nodded, and then, together with all the remaining Mist Ninja, bowed deeply to Makoto and said in unison.
"Many thanks to Captain Cheng for saving us from danger and defeating the powerful enemy!"
The unified shouts of thanks echoed across the ruins, filled with the relief of surviving a catastrophe and a heartfelt reverence for the strong.
Kirigakure is a village where the strong reign supreme. As long as you are strong enough, you can become the Mizukage tomorrow and no one will say a word against it.
Furthermore, if it weren't for Makoto Kuraki holding off and even repelling that monstrous masked man, everyone present would probably have perished.
Faced with this heartfelt gratitude, Makoto Koji was taken aback for a moment, then waved his hand.
Today's battle has completely destroyed his facade of a spoiled brat. However, these guys are originally from Water Blue Island, and on Water Blue Island, his orders should be carried out most thoroughly in the future.
"Alright, alright, stop with the formalities. Let's get things sorted out. Those who need to heal, heal; those who need to be on guard, be on guard. Don't let any other villains take advantage of the situation."
"yes!"
As if heaven itself wanted to cleanse Gouju Cheng of the aftermath of the battle, a light drizzle began to fall.
Makoto Kuraki stood in the center of the ravaged battlefield and surveyed the scene.
The White Bone Forest created by the Corpse Bone Pulse has begun to slowly decay without the support of chakra. The three copy slots of God's Hand—[Swift Release], [Mangekyou Kamui], and [Corpse Bone Pulse]—are currently on cooldown.
Even after the [Kaleidoscope Sharingan - Shisui Version] replaces the [Three-Tomoe Sharingan - Shisui Version], it will still inherit its cooldown.
It can be said that this is indeed the weakest period for Gouju Cheng.
Fortunately, the battle is over.
Makoto Karimoto's gaze fell on the place that was being carefully guarded by several Mist Ninja.
Rin Nohara's cold body, and Kakashi Hatake, who is unconscious!
"Captain Cheng, what's next...?"
Aoki walked over with the help of others. His face was still pale, but his eyes had regained the composure of a deputy. However, when he looked at Makoto Koji, his awe was even deeper.
Gouju Cheng rubbed his temples.
"Aoki, take your men and gather the wounded to treat them. Also, take stock of the losses and the number of dead. We can't let our guard down on the outer perimeter. Even though that guy escaped, there's no guarantee there aren't other Konoha rats, or that he might come back."
He paused.
"How are those two doing?"
"That female ninja from Konoha... has been confirmed dead. Her heart was completely destroyed, and the Three-Tails' chakra seems to have also dissipated."
