Naruto's Strongest Force - Chapter 74
The voice immediately interrupted Kisame Hoshigaki’s thoughts, and he leaped to the side with high alert.
Obito frowned deeply; he hadn’t expected him to come.
Natsuki walked out casually, saying, “I’m Sorry. Your acting was so bad that I couldn’t help but laugh.”
Kisame frowned: “You’re the one from that day?”
Natsuki raised an eyebrow and greeted Kisame.
Using his deep voice, Obito asked, “What’s so funny?”
Natsuki’s lips curled into a mocking smile.
“You are the one who assigned Kisame those tasks, causing his confusion. Where do you get the gall to say you’re here to relieve his suffering?”
“The tyranny in the Hidden Mist these past years was because you used genjutsu to control Yagura Karatachi, right? Now you’re pretending to be Uchiha Madara, playing both sides?”
Obito was silent. Though he didn’t understand the meaning of “playing both sides,” the mockery was apparent.
Natsuki’s appearance was troublesome for Obito, but since he was already playing the role of Uchiha Madara, he could only stay calm.
Then Natsuki suddenly asked, “Are you really Uchiha Madara?”
Having no choice, Obito responded, “That’s right, I am Uchiha Madara.”
Hearing Obito still insist on this lie, Natsuki burst into loud laughter: “Hahaha, hahaha…”
Now embarrassed and angry, Obito shouted, “What’s so funny!?”
“You claim to be Uchiha Madara?”
“You’re Uchiha Madara!!!???”
“Madara ruled the battlefield all his life; when did he ever hide his face?”
“How could Madara be a coward who hides his face!?”
“Your genjutsu might fool others, but can it fool an Uchiha!?”
Natsuki’s anger flared. The most disgusting person in the world to him was Obito. Natsuki wouldn’t have to run around like this if it weren’t for Obito’s constant meddling.
Kisame stood silently by the side, wondering if the “others” referred to him.
“Hmph!”
With nothing more to say, Obito let out a cold snort.
He retreated behind Yagura Karatachi.
Yagura waved his hand, creating a mirror before him, reflecting Uchiha Natsuki’s image.
Oh! Isn’t this the famous Water Mirror Technique!?
From the water mirror, a person identical to Natsuki emerged.
Natsuki’s eyes lit up; he wanted to test this Water Mirror Technique.
He formed hand seals.
Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!
The water mirror clone also used a Great Fireball Technique.
The two jutsu collided and canceled each other out.
Impressive, it can copy jutsu.
What about Susanoo?
Natsuki activated his Sharingan, his Mangeky? Sharingan spinning rapidly.
Susanoo!
A golden Susanoo instantly rose, the surging chakra filling the dark underground chamber.
Obito’s expression turned grim. How could Uchiha Natsuki have such powerful eye abilities!?
Susanoo started forming from a skeleton. The Water Mirror Technique flickered and then shattered.
It seemed the Water Mirror Technique couldn’t replicate Susanoo.
Natsuki’s Susanoo started forming flesh, breaking through the ceiling with a roar.
Moonlight shone down, casting a hazy golden light on Natsuki’s Susanoo.
Across from him, Yagura had completed his partial Tailed Beast Transformation, with chakra wildly spreading around.
Obito, standing behind him with his mask on, his Sharingan rotating with an ominous red glow.
When Yagura transformed into a Tailed Beast, Obito couldn’t completely hide.
This was the heart of the Hidden Mist Village; the battle had to be quick!
The partially transformed Yagura leaped and struck Susanoo with a powerful blow.
Natsuki deliberately took the hit, blocking it with Susanoo’s arm.
Bang! A dull thud sounded, and a vast coral appeared on Susanoo’s arm!
Natsuki’s Susanoo didn’t retreat a step, just shaking off the coral.
With a swipe, Susanoo’s hand hit Yagura, sending him flying backward toward Obito.
Obito calmly watched Yagura fly toward him without moving.
Sure enough, Yagura passed through his body and flew out.
Natsuki’s Susanoo drew its sword and slashed at Obito.
“Fight, you scum! Aren’t you pretending to be Uchiha Madara?”
Boom! A massive explosion.
A giant crack appeared in the ground, dust rising!
But the sword passed harmlessly through Obito’s body.
Obito smirked, “You can’t hurt me.”
Yagura, cloaked in a chakra coat, rushed at high speed.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Amidst the violent roars, Yagura’s every powerful assault was blocked by Natsuki’s Susanoo.
Neither the flying debris nor Natsuki’s attacks could touch Obito.
Obito continued controlling the Mizukage with his Sharingan to attack Natsuki, unaware that many Hidden Mist ninjas had already gathered nearby.
“Sir, should we go forward?” someone beside Mei Terumi asked.
Mei Terumi squinted, “Not yet.”
“But the Mizukage…”
Mei Terumi interrupted, “That’s a puppet, not the Mizukage!”
“Yes!”
Natsuki’s Susanoo blocked each of the Mizukage’s high-speed attacks, and Natsuki still looked vigorous.
Could his eye technique be reducing Susanoo’s energy consumption?
“I wonder how long your Susanoo can last,” Obito said with a hint of provocation and curiosity.
The Hidden Mist had yet to appear; Mei Terumi was very patient.
Kisame stood not far away, holding Samehada and watching.
Natsuki chuckled, pointing Susanoo’s weapon at Obito, “That’s none of your concern.”
“Where’s your Susanoo!? Uchiha Madara without Susanoo? A cowardly Uchiha Madara!?”
“Without Susanoo, you’re just a maggot!”
Even though Mei Terumi had cleared the area, their fierce battle was too conspicuous. Susanoo was dozens of meters tall, lighting the night like a giant torch, making the surroundings as bright as day.
More Hidden Mist ninjas had surrounded them. Seeing so many people arrive, Mei Terumi realized she couldn’t sit back anymore. She called out and led everyone forward.
Only then did Obito notice the Hidden Mist surrounded him.
“Natsuki!” Obito was shocked and angry, his eyes flaring with power, driving Yagura into a complete full-tailed beast Transformation.
Yagura quickly transformed from human to Isobu!
Isobu’s body rapidly expanded to the size of Natsuki’s Susanoo.
A shell-covered, turtle-like body with three massive tails swinging!
“Huff… Huff…” Even for Obito, controlling a fully transformed Yagura required all his eye power.
Isobu!
Isobu arched its body, wrapping itself in its heavy shell and rolling forward like a giant wheel!
Rumble! The sound was like an earthquake!
Isobu, using its massive size and weight, charged forward to crush everything in its path!
Natsuki, pushing his eye power further, made Susanoo even more solid, evolving from flesh to armor.
The weapon in Susanoo’s hand became more substantial and enormous!
Natsuki’s Susanoo swung horizontally, clashing with Isobu’s body!
Boom! The ground shook violently.
