"If I remember correctly, you seem to be that guy Senju Tobirama's disciple, the little brat from the Sarutobi clan," Uchiha Obito looked at the suddenly appearing Sarutobi Hiruzen. Although he pretended to appear contemptuous on the surface, he was already thinking of retreating in his heart.
His Kamui had no offensive capabilities, and if he faced Konoha's two top-tier combat powers at the same time, there would be a significant risk of his information being exposed, just like when he faced Namikaze Minato.
He had to prioritize retreating.
Fortunately, he had already harvested enough Sharingan just now.
But Sarutobi Hiruzen had no intention of talking with Uchiha Obito at all.
He quickly bit his own finger and formed hand seals with both hands.
"Ninja Art: Summoning Technique!"
A large cloud of smoke rose around, but Sarutobi Hiruzen still looked at Uchiha Fugaku.
"Fugaku, Konoha will remember the Uchiha clan's sacrifice."
"I understand," Uchiha Fugaku understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's meaning. This was the result of prior discussion.
Uchiha Obito also seemed to understand something, but not much.
"Sarutobi, you haven't summoned me in a long time," Another deep voice rang out. From the smoke, an ape larger than Sarutobi Hiruzen, wearing a Konoha forehead protector, appeared.
"Enma, transform into the Adamantine Staff!"
Seeing Sarutobi Hiruzen's serious expression, Enma also understood the severity of the situation.
After striking a pose, he transformed into a staff and stood next to Sarutobi Hiruzen.
However, the matter wasn't over yet. Four purple light screens suddenly rose, enveloping all three of them within the range.
"The Four Violet Flames Formation?"
"Heh heh, a bunch of ants think that gathering together can bite an elephant to death?"
Uchiha Obito's voice was full of mockery, still maintaining his arms-crossed, carefree posture, "Mere sand grains, not worth a speck to me."
Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't speak, only forming hand seals with both hands.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
Three shadow clones appeared beside him and again formed seals.
"Earth Style: Earth Dragon Bullet!"
From the soft ground, a dragon head emerged. The dragon's mouth opened wide and spewed a large number of mud bullets toward Uchiha Obito.
At the same time, one of the shadow clones also began forming seals. Two more earth dragons lifted their heads from the ground, countless mud bullets covering Uchiha Obito, directly forming a suppressive firepower.
"Useless tricks!", Uchiha Obito didn't dodge or evade, letting the overwhelming mud bullets engulf his body.
The attack continued for some time.
Under the mask, Uchiha Obito's face couldn't help but frown.
'Why hasn't the attack ended yet?'
Sarutobi Hiruzen and several clones were using ninjutsu in shifts. He didn't even have a chance to return to physical form.
'Does this old guy have that much chakra?'
'Isn't it clear the attacks aren't hitting? Why is he still continuously throwing ninjutsu?'
Uchiha Obito hesitated for a moment.
A kunai slid out from his sleeve. His figure flashed, and he rushed toward Uchiha Fugaku.
If Sarutobi Hiruzen continued to attack him, then Uchiha Fugaku would inevitably also be within the attack range.
The opponent would definitely have to make a choice.
Just as Uchiha Obito predicted, Sarutobi Hiruzen stopped the attack.
He also rushed in front of Uchiha Fugaku, the kunai in his hand stabbing straight at the opponent's heart.
Uchiha Fugaku also pulled out a kunai to block.
As expected, Uchiha Obito passed through Uchiha Fugaku's body,
Stopped behind Uchiha Fugaku, and the chains at his wrists wrapped around the opponent.
At the same time, his left hand slapped Uchiha Fugaku's back.
Centered on his left eye, space distorted, and a black vortex appeared. Uchiha Fugaku was about to be sucked into the Kamui space.
"It ends here!"
"This is just the beginning!"
Right beside Uchiha Obito, the ground suddenly cracked open, and Sarutobi Hiruzen, holding the Adamantine Staff, emerged.
With great force and momentum, he struck Uchiha Obito, sending him flying and crashing into the barrier of the Four Violet Flames Formation.
A large cloud of dust was stirred up.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Halfway absorbed, Uchiha Fugaku returned to normal, his body appearing in the original spot.
"Fugaku, are you alright?", Sarutobi Hiruzen simply asked about the other's injuries.
Uchiha Fugaku shook his head, "I'm fine. His pupil technique is too bizarre."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded. Four shadow clones appeared around him.
That's right, the one that first appeared in front of Uchiha Obito was only his shadow clone.
The Shadow Clone Technique was developed by the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, and it inherently had a counter effect against the Sharingan.
Because even the Sharingan couldn't see through shadow clones.
He once again looked toward Uchiha Obito's position. In the midst of the dust, Uchiha Obito's figure stood up again.
But half of his body was somewhat twisted and deformed.
"Heh! Heh! heh!"
A chilling cold laugh rang out. Uchiha Obito spoke, "Not bad, Sarutobi clan's brat. I underestimated you."
Sarutobi Hiruzen remained unmoved, his expression always calm.
"You seem to be getting anxious. Looks like your pupil technique isn't invincible after all."
"Whether it's invincible or not, let's test it," Although Uchiha Obito still maintained a contemptuous attitude, he was already preparing to retreat.
That earlier staff strike wasn't light. If not for White Zetsu's body helping him resist and Hashirama cells' super healing ability, he would've gone to the Pure Land to see Rin.
The last time he was this badly injured was when he faced Namikaze Minato.
He also had no need to fight the opponent to the death here. There was still Uchiha Fugaku, whose strength was not weak either.
A black vortex appeared again, about to pull himself into it.
However, just as the black vortex appeared, a large amount of flame flew toward him.
"Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!"
Uchiha Fugaku's ninjutsu casting speed was also very fast.
Facing the oncoming flames, Uchiha Obito had no choice but to abandon the idea of transporting into the Kamui space.
The flames passed through his body.
Uchiha Fugaku: "Looks like when you use that space-time ability, you can't enter that intangible state."
'Damn it!', Uchiha Obito couldn't help but curse in his heart, trying hard to maintain his persona.
"Didn't expect that aside from Uchiha Itachi, the Uchiha clan would have another outstanding junior like you. Since that's the case, I'll have to get a bit more serious."
"You're still pretending at this point? A guy like you can't possibly be Uchiha Madara," Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone was full of certainty.
Obito's expression stiffened slightly, "Then who do you think I am?"
"Who you are doesn't matter to me. I just need to know you're an enemy of Konoha. That's enough!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen gripped the Adamantine Staff, his eyes fierce. One of the clones quickly formed seals, "Next, let me see how long you can maintain that state."
"Genjutsu: Demonic Illusion – Darkness Technique!"
As Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice fell, from Uchiha Obito's perspective, the shadow beneath the opponent's feet quickly spread in all directions.
In just a brief moment, Uchiha Obito felt like he had fallen into a world of absolute darkness.
