I, The New Hokage of Konoha - Chapter 201
“Nagato, is this what you want?”
Obito asked Nagato, who was behind Konan.
Coughing in his throat, Nagato looked up and said in the same tone as before, “Konan means what I mean. Also, Mr. Madara, your actions today are too excessive.”
“Is that so? It’s just that the current situation is too critical.” Obito shook his head and finally persuaded, “For safety’s sake, let me take you away. Nagato, you should believe me.”
“Haha —” Nagato smiled meaningfully.
And Konan’s attitude was even more clear.
Swish, swish, swish —
In an instant, countless pieces of paper flew out from the disguised tree, and with a series of rapid spinning sounds, they turned into paper hands and swords pointing at Obito and Zetsu.
“Aiyaya —How did things develop to this point? We are all on the same side, don’t fight —” Seeing this scene, White Zetsu cried out exaggeratedly.
Black Zetsu narrowed his eyes. It seemed that he had to use force!
Uchiha Obito also had the same thought.
He didn’t even look at the paper hands and swords around him. He just stared at the long door and said coldly, “All these years, I taught you the knowledge of the Rinnegan. I also told you about the information about the Juubi. The growth of the Akatsuki organization is also my contribution. Everything I do is for the sake of our common ideals. Therefore, I can not tolerate the plan to give up halfway.”
“So, Nagato, no matter what you think at this time, for the sake of the big picture, even if you are unwilling, I must act forcefully.”
After saying that, Obito strode toward Nagato, wanting to forcibly take action.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Konan did not hesitate. With a thought, the overwhelming swords in his hands shot towards the two.
“Don’t hurt the innocent! You guys fight; I’ll just watch from the side.”
White Zetsu held his head while controlling his body to sink into the ground.
Black Zetsu did not stop him.
In the face of Konan’s attack, Obito allowed Paper Hand and Sword to move around his body.
“Continuous attacks? You know my characteristics, but the news is out of date.”
Now that he had the double divine power, his only five-minute weakness was gone. In addition, the cells between the columns can supplement his energy consumption. This attack alone is not enough to stop him.
Ignoring everything around him, Obito continued to rush towards the long door.
Konan did not know that the earth’s ability had been restored.
But knowing that “Madara” could blur, and without preparing five hundred billion exploding talismans, she knew it was difficult to deal with the other party, so she only considered delaying the other party while leaving with the long door.
Crash!
The thousands of pieces of paper that formed the big tree collapsed instantly and slammed into the pile of soil.
Taking advantage of this, countless pieces of paper flew over from Konan’s back, instantly condensing into two huge angel wings.
She spread her wings, and with a “swish” sound, she was about to fly away together with the long door.
“No way —No way —Lord Madara and Zetsu won’t let that cold woman escape just like that, right? That’s too bad!”
Not far away, a White Zetsu who was being arranged to be on guard outside, sending messages at any time, heard the movement behind him, subconsciously turned around, and couldn’t help muttering when he saw this scene.
“It’s not over yet. It’s not bad to make a judgment immediately.”
Suddenly, a hoarse voice sounded in its ear.
“Is that so?” White Zetsu subconsciously replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly realized something was wrong. He turned around and immediately saw the giant snake swallow him.
On the side, the Orochimaru man patted the snake’s bulging belly and chuckled, “I’ve wanted to put you on the experiment table to dissect you for a long time.”
Orochimaru was no stranger to this strange creature with the aura of Wood Release. He had done many Wood Release experiments under Danzo, so he naturally wanted to study it well.
It was inconvenient before.
Now, he was naturally evil.
Even though Orochimaru, who had been hiding here since the beginning, had not discovered the target because of Konan’s Paper Spell, fortunately, the spell’s effect was no longer there. He had not missed this good show.
“I didn’t expect the real Pain to look like this.”
Looking at Nagato, whom Konan protected, Orochimaru smiled playfully.
He naturally recognized that the latter was one of the three orphans whom Jiraya had taught.
He recalled that his eyes had always been hidden in his red hair and through the information he had collected over the years.
Orochimaru instantly understood the truth and cursed Jiraya in his heart, “Idiot!” He looked at Nagato’s real Rinnegan greedily.
This was undoubtedly the best time for him to wait so many years.
However, who was the person who was also wearing the Akatsuki’s uniform?
Why had he never seen him before?
Looking at the man who could pass through Konan’s attack without any injuries, Orochimaru, who had a very serious expression on his face, began to think seriously.
At this moment, he saw Konan lift his head with Nagato and expressionlessly say, “Let’s get rid of this troublesome woman first.”
Kacha —
A hole suddenly opened in the place of the left eye on the spiral mask, and he was stunned.
Within it, another Mangekyo was emitting an ominous blood-red light.
“Divine Might!”
His left eye pointed directly at Konan, and Uchiha Obito coldly said.
In an instant!
A spatial vortex suddenly appeared on the left side of Konan’s body.
Under the powerful suction force at the centre, Konan’s left wing and half of his body were instantly sucked in.
“How is this possible?”
Konan, who had only half of his body made up of paper, held the long door with his right hand and said in disbelief.
In the past few years, she had collected most of the abilities of “Madara” and believed that she already had a good understanding of it.
But what was with this long-distance space attack just now?
She had never seen him show it before.
“Don’t underestimate the power of the Uchiha, little girl!”
With that, Obito once again released his left eye.
Before his body could reform, Konan cracked again.
“The Dance of Paper is indeed a unique ninjutsu. But how many more times can your Chakra last?”
Just as Konan knew about Obito, he had been with him for a long time, so he was very clear about Konan’s unique ninjutsu.
After being hit twice, although Konan was still fine, the recovery speed of her body was much slower than before.
Also, under the attack just now, she was powerless to protect Nagato.
Seeing that Nagato was no longer in front of her, Obito no longer paid attention to Konan, who was still alive and turned his target to Nagato again using his left eye.
“Ten Thousand Elephant Heaven Attraction!”
After watching from the side for a long time, Nagato, who had forced himself up, was prepared to reach out his hand, and a huge rock instantly appeared in front of him, taking his place as Kamui sucked him in.
Then, he coughed and opened his palm.
Under the huge, repulsive force, everything around him instantly bounced off.
Although Obito was not affected by the intangible state, Nagato’s goal was not this.
While using the Shinra Tensei to lift the surrounding smoke and dust to block Obito’s line of sight, Nagato nodded to Konan.
Large amounts of paper flew out from the latter’s sleeve, instantly forming a wide and high ring around her.
Not only Nagato could see it, but she also quickly understood the characteristics of this new skill.
That was, a long-distance divine might attack needed to be seen by the eyes.
At this time, taking advantage of the yellow dust that filled the sky, Konan also formed a ring with herself as the centre. Once again, she retreated with the long door to block Obito’s line of sight.
On the other side, when Uchiha Obito quickly passed through the yellow dust caused by the Shinra Tensei and saw the scene before him, he let out a disdainful “tsk” sound.
This kind of action, at most, was to delay time.
It was just a struggle to the death.
However, when he thought of Yuki Senju, who was rushing here, he frowned slightly and stomped his foot. “Black Zetsu, quickly make your move. I know you have a way.”
“Alright.” Black Zetsu, who knew that time was of the essence, did not refuse.
It rose from the ground and formed a seal with both hands.
“Stop!”
In an instant, Nagato, whom Konan brought along, suddenly froze. His body uncontrollably stopped.
“What’s wrong, Nagato?”
Seeing that Nagato’s body suddenly surged with the strength to resist him, Konan, who was carrying Nagato, turned around and asked in confusion.
“Rinnegan… it is restricting me!”
Nagato suddenly felt a power that he had never seen before surge out from his Rinnegan, and with a face full of anger, he spoke with great difficulty.
Soon, as if he had thought of something, his face flashed with anger, regret, unwillingness, loneliness, and so on. In the end, his face was filled with worry, and he struggled to twist his neck, shouting anxiously to Konan:
“Konan, run!”
Konan naturally would not run away by himself.
She was confused and about to continue asking when a swirling space suddenly appeared twenty meters away.
Uchiha Obito came out of it, looked around, and then looked at Konan, standing in front of the long door, and said, “Not a single one of you will be able to escape today.”
“Fire Escape, Explosive Wind Dance!”
With the support of Divine Might, the distorted power of space flew forward at an extremely fast speed along with the fierce flames.
Behind him was Konan, who could not move a long door and could not dodge.
She gritted her teeth, opened her hands, and countless thin pieces of paper shot out like sharp blades.
However, even though these pieces of paper had been specially processed to prevent water, they could still resist the effects of ninjutsu combined with the power of space and fire.
In the end, the remaining power of the Wild Dancing Wind Technique hit Konan.
“Rumble!”
She spread out again.
Taking advantage of this time, Uchiha Obito ignored Nagato’s anger and said:
“After being together for so many years, as a guide and half a teacher, I don’t want to become like this. But the world is always changing, so…”
“Nagato, don’t blame me.”
Uchiha Obito stretched out his palm and pressed it towards Nagato, who was close to him.
