Chapter 322: Let’s Attack Together
Inside the Kamui Dimension.
This was a vast, empty, dimly lit, and bizarre alternate dimension composed of countless giant cubic stone pillars and platforms.
Oppressive, silent, and lonely.
On a high, square stone monument platform, space rippled. Uchiha Obito pulled Nagato as they stepped out from a vortex, landing on the stone surface.
Nagato panted weakly. He forced his head up, his Rinnegan—clouded by excessive exhaustion and grief—staring fixedly at the man in the Spiral Mask beside him. His voice was hoarse yet carried a sharp interrogation:
"You... are Uchiha Obito, aren’t you?"
The brow beneath Obito’s mask seemed to twitch. His only exposed right eye glanced at Nagato, his tone flat and devoid of emotion: "It’s me. It seems... that guy named Naruto has quite a loose tongue."
White Zetsu had already informed Obito of the words the two had exchanged during their previous battle. It wasn’t surprising that Nagato knew his identity, but he couldn’t let Nagato know he had been monitoring him all along.
Even if Nagato might already know, he had to pretend he didn’t know the other knew. They would still have to work together with false civility in the future; there was no need to voice it now.
What Obito wanted were the fruits of victory, not to become a skeletal wreck like Nagato.
However, the moment Obito finished speaking, his entire body suddenly stiffened!
Because he clearly sensed that in this Kamui Dimension—which should have been completely under his control, isolated from the outside, and accessible only through his Mangekyo Sharingan,
An extremely powerful, incredibly familiar, yet heart-palpitatingly foreign pressure of Chakra fluctuations had forcibly intruded without warning!
"How is this possible?"
Obito roared in shock within his mind.
The Kamui Dimension was his absolute Domain!
Besides himself, only one other person could possibly enter—Kakashi!
The next moment, not far in front of Obito and Nagato, space warped violently again like ripples on water.
A pitch-black vortex with eerie patterns spinning at its edges forcibly "tore" a hole in the stable barrier of the Kamui Dimension.
Immediately after, a figure stepped unhurriedly out of that black vortex.
It was Uzumaki Naruto!
His current appearance caused Obito’s pupils to shrink and Nagato’s breath to hitch:
His right eye remained that heart-palpitating red Six Tomoe Rinnegan, radiating the indifference and pressure of one looking down upon all living beings.
His left eye, however, had been replaced by a Mangekyo Sharingan spinning with a familiar spiral pattern!
And that pattern, those Dōjutsu fluctuations... were clearly his own left eye!
Naruto calmly scanned the bizarre space, then his gaze fell upon the battle-ready Obito and the stunned Nagato.
He then spoke to Obito in a relaxed tone, almost like casual small talk:
"This place of yours... is really hard to find, Obito."
"Hello!"
An abrupt, flippant, and even somewhat comical greeting suddenly exploded in the silent Kamui Dimension without warning!
The source of the voice didn’t come from any of the three facing off, but rather "drilled" out from the surface of the giant cubic stone platform Naruto was standing on!
A pale white figure instantly lunged out!
It gripped a Kunai flashing with cold light, stabbing fiercely toward Naruto’s neck at extreme speed!
It was White Zetsu!
However, facing this surprise attack launched from almost ground level, Naruto’s expression didn’t even flicker.
As if he had long foreseen it, he used his left foot as a pivot and shifted his body slightly to the right, elegantly letting the Kunai stab into thin air.
The White Zetsu whose sneak attack failed seemed to freeze for a moment, its large mouth still holding a bizarre smile.
But Naruto’s counterattack had already arrived!
Without even turning his head, he whipped his right leg backward and upward like a steel whip, landing a clean and decisive roundhouse kick squarely on White Zetsu’s chest.
"Bang!"
A dull thud sounded.
White Zetsu’s seemingly light body was sent flying backward with a scream, like a doll hit head-on by a high-speed train!
It traced a long parabola in the air, flying straight off the high platform and disappearing into the deeper, darker forest of cubic stone pillars below, lost from sight.
"Tch, disturbing the peace."
Naruto retracted his leg and commented flatly, as if he had merely kicked away a bothersome pebble.
"A mere ordinary White Zetsu... with Taijutsu at the level of a Special Jonin at best, dares to come out and make a fool of itself?"
The individual combat strength of an ordinary White Zetsu was limited, relying mainly on numbers, disguise, and the element of surprise.
In front of a powerhouse of Naruto’s level, a lone sneak attack was no different from seeking death.
However, this insignificant and even somewhat laughable sneak attack interlude successfully bought Obito the most critical moment!
During the time Naruto turned and kicked White Zetsu, his attention briefly diverted.
Behind Nagato, another White Zetsu appeared.
It was still pale white all over, but its face was covered in circular patterns like tree rings, looking even more bizarre.
It appeared silently, but its movements were as fast as a ghost!
It didn’t attack Naruto; instead, it instantly lunged at Nagato!
"What?"
Nagato only had time to let out a short cry of surprise before his body, except for his head, was completely enveloped and covered by that Swirly-face White Zetsu!
The white biomass rapidly shaped and solidified, forming a strange structure like an exoskeleton armor that firmly fixed and supported Nagato’s body, leaving only his head exposed.
"Dammit... this is..."
Nagato struggled instinctively, but he found that after being enveloped by this white substance, his extremely weak body—which had been almost unable to move on its own—was actually being supported and lifted by a gentle yet resilient force.
More importantly, this white substance seemed to stimulate the residual Chakra in his body and provided some temporary vitality and mobility assistance.
After a brief moment of panic, Nagato discovered to his shock that he could actually stand up!
Although his movements were still stiff and far from the flexibility of his healthy days, compared to his previous state of being slumped on the machine, unable to even move a finger, it was like night and day!
"This is Tobi."
Obito’s voice rang out at the right time. He stood in front of Nagato, gripping the Uchiha War Fan in his right hand, assuming a defensive stance.
His gaze was locked onto Naruto while he quickly explained to Nagato behind him: "It’s a special White Zetsu individual. It can not only provide disguise and support but also temporarily enhance the host’s physical functions and Chakra activity."
While explaining, Obito was also calculating rapidly in his mind.
The way Naruto broke into the Kamui Dimension just now had already made Obito understand many things.
The opponent had obtained his left eye from Kakashi. Seeing that the opponent could enter meant that the eye’s Dōjutsu was also Kamui.
"Nagato, hurry and adapt to this temporary body."
"The two of us will attack together!"
Obito’s tone was exceptionally heavy, even carrying a rare hint of urgency.
He knew very well that by himself, he was absolutely no match for Naruto, who was currently at full power and possessed the left Kamui eye.
Their brief exchange earlier had already proven this point.
Naruto’s strength, Dōjutsu, and control over the rhythm of battle had all reached an inconceivable level.
Now, the only hope was to join forces with Nagato, who had recovered some mobility and ability to perform techniques!
The two of them fighting two-on-one might stand a chance.
