Chapter 55 - Tailed Beast Transformation

"How are things going?"

"Genji-sama, it's progressing, but the Mizukage's side... their resistance is very strong."

Inside a tall tower in Kirigakure, Genji silently observed everything from afar, while Terumī Mei stood behind him, softly narrating.

This battle was for the future of Kirigakure, but Genji felt pain in his heart seeing it unfold this way. However, he quickly composed himself.

What revolution doesn't involve bloodshed?

"Also, some people have also become doubtful."

Just as Genji was contemplating, Terumī Mei spoke again.

"They're worried... they'll become traitors to the village. You know, we..."

"Hmph, tell them, losing makes you a rebel

Winning makes it a revolution!" Genji interrupted Terumi Mei before she could finish.

"Furthermore, we must believe in Ao, believe in the Byakugan. He won't lie to us!"

"Yes, I understand. I will relay the message."

"That's good."

Hearing Terumi Mei's words, Genji nodded. But before he could say anything more, the ground suddenly shook violently.

The next moment, accompanied by a roar and a sky full of smoke and dust, an ominous Chakra wildly spread, and a giant beast appeared faintly in the smoke and thick fog.

"This is..."

Both Genji and Terumi Mei's eyes widened. They realized the situation seemed to be spiraling further out of control.

Just then, the giant beast let out a mournful roar of indignation that echoed throughout the entire Kirigakure.

.....

"How is this possible?"

Under the attack of the Rasengan, Obito's entire body was struck into the ground.

The powerful impact sent gravel flying, and in the smoke, only the white Rasengan shone with dazzling light.

However, his mind was somewhat dazed now, he had a feeling of déjà vu.

Back then, he seemed to have been defeated by Minato in this exact way. Is everything repeating itself now?

He didn't understand why he had fallen to the Flying Thunder God Technique twice in a row.

Also, when did this brat learn the Flying Thunder God Technique?

All of this made Obito's head buzz, and what he couldn't stand the most was the last sentence Takemi had said.

"Who would use illusion to replace reality?"

This sentence truly pierced his heart, making him uncomfortable, even twisting his face. For a moment, he even doubted himself.

"Illusion... reality..."

Obito's mind repeated these two words, but he quickly stopped thinking about them.

Whether it was reality or illusion, he didn't need to argue. He considered himself to be observing the entire Ninja World from a higher perspective.

In his eyes, all people have desires. This is the fundamental problem of this world.

Only by using the Eye of the Moon Plan to resolve all of this, allowing everyone to no longer be controlled by their desires, can this world be saved.

Only then can Rin's tragedy be prevented from repeating, and only then can Rin truly be saved.

Moreover...

He didn't have time to think much, because Takemi was already charging at him again with a short sword in hand.

"Lost?"

Meanwhile, Kakashi and Kisame's battle had slowed down.

Kisame's expression was a bit strange. Although he was fighting Kakashi, he was also paying attention to everything else.

That bizarre space-time jutsu was truly incomprehensible to him, but he understood one thing.

"That kid knows the Flying Thunder God Technique, and he successfully ambushed him?"

For a moment, Kisame even doubted his own choice. Was this guy reliable or not?

"Takemi..."

Kakashi and Jiraiya, who was on the other side, also noticed this scene. Their eyes were somewhat excited, but also a little emotional.

Obito caused Minato's death, but before his death, Minato left Obito with an imprint to change things.

"Good opportunity."

However, at this moment, Jiraiya suddenly realized something, and his gaze immediately locked onto the Fourth Mizukage.

He noticed that Yagura in front of him seemed to be stiff, and his attacks were not as smooth as before.

"Obito is injured, has the genjutsu loosened? Then let's break his control!"

Jiraiya was very decisive. This mysterious organization was so dangerous. Even if Kirigakure had an extremely bad relationship with Konoha, their Mizukage had been humiliated by this organization.

Presumably, after this incident, they would also take action against this organization, which would also be helping Konoha.

Fire Release: Fire Bullet!

Taking advantage of the Fourth Mizukage's stiff body, Jiraiya unleashed a Fire Release without hesitation.

"Ah!"

The Fourth Mizukage didn't dodge at all, and the scorching flames instantly ignited his body. However, at that very moment, the Chakra of a Tailed Beast appeared on him.

"Tailed Beast Transformation?"

Jiraiya raised an eyebrow. This was neither good nor bad. The appearance of Tailed Beast Chakra meant that the Fourth Mizukage himself was also breaking the genjutsu.

But...

This also made him even more difficult to deal with.

Watching the Fourth Mizukage roar and charge towards him, Jiraiya began to sweat, but he could only brace himself and go for it.

Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle—

While Jiraiya was dealing with the Fourth Mizukage, Obito seized the opportunity to re-enter the Kamui dimension.

Seeing the short sword, imbued with Purple Electricity, suddenly appear behind him and flash past, his face turned pale.

"Damn Minato, damn Flying Thunder God Technique!"

He hadn't forgotten what Minato had done, but he was dead, and he didn't think anyone else could learn the Flying Thunder God Technique, so he had never bothered to clear it.

But now, this bastard not only learned it but could also use Minato's mark, which made him incredibly passive.

"You're really tough to hit."

Takemi didn't care that his first strike had missed. As he launched another attack, he also kept talking. With the Flying Thunder God mark, he held the initiative.

Moreover, it was hard to say if this mark could be used again next time, so it would be a huge loss if he didn't make good use of it now.

"You took a Rasengan and didn't die, and you can even use Wood Release. Who taught you that?"

"..."

Obito didn't want to speak. He just stared intently at Takemi, but slowly, his eyes began to burn with fury.

"Also, why are you blaming others for your own tardiness?"

"Do you really want to kill everyone in the world? After all, that's the only way to truly end conflict."

"Do you really believe in illusion? Or do you have other plans?"

Takemi's mouth was as relentless as his hands, and every word poked at Obito's core.

Even though he knew very well that Takemi was trying to provoke him into making a mistake, it was still incredibly infuriating.

"Damn brat..."

Obito forcibly suppressed his anger. Although that Rasengan didn't break his arm, his entire back was split open.

If half of his body wasn't White Zetsu, he would be dead by now.

What he needed to consider now was how to quickly leave this cursed place, but Kisame was still trapped here.

He had just recruited him. If he ran away now, wouldn't that look too bad?

"Hmm?"

However, at this moment, he suddenly turned his head to look at the other side. He saw the Tailed Beast Chakra on the Fourth Mizukage growing heavier.

And Jiraiya was constantly influencing the Fourth Mizukage's Chakra through his attacks. How could he not know what they were doing?

"Since you want to break his genjutsu..."

Obito gnashed his teeth in anger, but this also seemed to give him an idea.

His Mangekyo Sharingan spun rapidly, and at this moment, the Three-Tails Chakra became even more violent.

"Then I'll help you!"

"Hmm?"

In that instant, everyone in the underground base changed their expressions, especially Jiraiya, who widened his eyes.

"Roar—"

The Fourth Mizukage suddenly let out a roar, and the next moment, his body began to swell uncontrollably.

In an instant, the entire underground base began to collapse.

"This is bad..."

At this, everyone's faces turned grim, but just then, Takemi's eye twitched.
