The cavern echoed with tension.
The Great White Snake Sage's eyes gleamed with venom as she watched Madara charge toward her.
She thrust her hands forward, and three radiant dragons shifted midair, hurtling toward Madara with unstoppable momentum.
Madara's brows furrowed slightly.
"Hm?"
The scattered energy of the dragons shouldn't pose any significant threat to him. Yet, an inexplicable sense of unease crept into his mind.
As the distance between them closed, the senjutsu chakra from the three light dragons resonated, forming an intricate barrier that encased his blue Susanoo.
"Grrrraah!"
The dragons emitted mournful cries as they fortified the barrier. At the same time, the energy within them began to churn chaotically.
"This isn't good!"
Madara's expression darkened, his intuition quickly piecing together the White Snake Sage's intentions.
Meanwhile, four Kamui shuriken—launched from his azure Susanoo—sliced through the air in jagged arcs, aimed directly at the White Snake Sage.
Shing! Shing! Shing! Shing!
The White Snake Sage's instincts flared. Danger was imminent.
"Why… why do these four shuriken feel utterly unavoidable…?"
She cast a glance toward the approaching projectiles. Despite her confidence, a trace of caution lingered.
"No matter. My body will regenerate in mere seconds. To be safe…"
(Even without converging, the light dragons are naturally absorbing energy to heal themselves.)
The White Snake Sage clenched her right hand.
"Senjutsu: Dragon Mastery!"
The remaining four light dragons surged forward, spiraling through the air and colliding with the Kamui shuriken.
Pop!
The sound resembled the bursting of a bubble.
As the shuriken struck the dragons, they unleashed spatial distortions that twisted and shattered the dragons upon impact, scattering their forms into nothingness.
"As expected… these shuriken manipulate space itself… Wait!"
Though the four shuriken had been intercepted, the sense of unease in the White Snake Sage's heart only grew stronger. Her gaze darted around, quickly locking onto the source of her disquiet.
Emerging from the shadows of the first shuriken were four more—silent and deadly, creeping toward her.
Kamui: Shadow Shuriken!
"Such a petty trick! You think this can fool me?"
The White Snake Sage sneered, clenching her hand again.
The light dragons at her feet split off into four concentrated streams of senjutsu chakra, intercepting the shuriken with precision and shattering them effortlessly.
Pop!
The Kamui shuriken released their distorted fields, sending ripples through the surrounding space.
For a moment, Obito's attack seemed completely neutralized.
At the same time, the three dragons imprisoning Madara detonated.
BOOM!
A torrent of senjutsu energy erupted, piercing through the blue Susanoo. The barrier amplified the explosion, causing waves of aftershocks to batter Madara repeatedly.
The White Snake Sage turned her gaze toward the trembling Susano'o.
"And now, only the insolent brat remains…"
Once he was taken care of, she could claim the greatest reward she had ever sought in a thousand years.
The White Snake Sage's wrinkled face contorted into a triumphant grin, resembling a wilted chrysanthemum.
But just as she believed victory was assured, a chilling voice echoed from behind her.
"Looking for something, White Snake Sage?"
The White Snake Sage froze, her entire body trembling.
"(°Д°)!What?! How?!"
A few seconds earlier…
As the shadow shuriken prepared to emerge from the first shuriken's wake, the White Snake Sage's attention had been momentarily diverted.
Taking advantage of her distraction, Obito executed a bold gambit. He left a shadow clone in his cockpit and slipped into the Kamui dimension.
In his mind, Obito had prepared for two outcomes:
If the White Snake Sage failed to notice the shadow shuriken, he could simply extract her blood and flesh directly.But realistically, she wasn't likely to fall for such a simple ploy.
Unlike Naruto or Sasuke, Obito wasn't blessed with protagonist-level plot armor. There was no way a seasoned adversary like her would be tricked so easily.
However, if the White Snake Sage intercepted the shuriken, she would momentarily lower her guard. Combined with Madara's unexpected misfortune, this lapse was all Obito needed.
With the spatial ripples from the Kamui shuriken obscuring his presence, Obito had quietly emerged behind the White Snake Sage.
Back in the present…
Before the startled White Snake Sage could react, Obito activated his Mangekyō Sharingan at full power.
"Kamui!"
The incomplete light dragons lacked their full "dragonbone" structure and couldn't block Kamui's effects. (The earlier shuriken had already proven this.)
The terrifying spatial distortion bypassed the light dragons and targeted the White Snake Sage directly.
With his heart pounding, Obito managed to twist off a piece of flesh from her… backside.
He couldn't contain his excitement.
"Yes! Finally! I've got it!"
The White Snake Sage's face contorted with a mix of shock, humiliation, fury, and confusion.
"You… dare take flesh from my body… and act so ecstatic about it?! How insolent!"
"Wait, Madara!"
Obito's joy was cut short as he noticed Madara falling from the sky, unconscious.
Madara was battered, bloodied, and missing most of his right arm. He plummeted in a free fall toward the ground.
"Dammit, what happened to him?!"
Before Obito could process further, the White Snake Sage erupted in rage, summoning a six-hundred-meter-long light dragon that surged toward him.
"You insolent brat! DIE!"
"Why is this old hag going berserk all of a sudden?!"
Obito quickly retreated into the Kamui dimension, narrowly avoiding the dragon's wrath. Moments later, he reappeared below Madara, catching him mid-air.
"Whoa… Madara's body is softer than I imagined. Heh."
The light dragon twisted in the sky, its size now exceeding eight hundred meters as it barreled toward them again.
"Damn it… it's getting stronger!"
Obito gritted his teeth. The dragon's spatial interference was intensifying, threatening to disrupt his Kamui techniques.
He had to act fast.
