Chapter 230: Chapter 230 : Mud Play Guy
"Hey! Naruto!" Minato said helplessly to Naruto in front of him. "Stop playing around!"
"Playing?!" All the Allied Shinobi Forces stared at the doomsday-like battlefield in utter confusion.
Naruto walked over to Hashirama and the others. "Wood Style: Wood Clone Technique!"
A perfect clone of Naruto appeared.
"Already marked?" the Wood Clone asked, looking at Minato.
"Yeah," Minato replied, placing one hand on Naruto's Wood Clone and the other on Tobirama.
"Striking first, huh? You're fast," Tobirama praised, hands clasped. "So you're just using a clone?"
"Good enough," the Wood Clone replied lazily. "Let's begin."
In an instant, four Narutos appeared around the Ten Tails.
"Barrier Ninjutsu: Four Red Yang Formation!"
A massive red barrier erupted around the Ten Tails.
"It's not over yet!" Hashirama shouted. "Sage Art: Shinsuō Senju - Myojinmon! Close!"
Ten massive red torii gates fell from the sky, pinning the Ten Tails' tails to the ground.
"Seal: Tenfold Suppression!" Hashirama roared.
Another torii gate fell, slamming down on the Ten Tails' head.
The Ten Tails' chakra sputtered erratically as it thrashed.
"A red barrier?!" — "It's said to be dozens of times stronger than the Four Violet Flames Formation!" — "Without four Kage-level shinobi, it can't be performed!"
"ROAR!!" The Ten Tails howled inside the barrier.
The massive firework cannon formed in its mouth again and fired a Tailed Beast Bomb at the barrier!
"What?! Again?!" — "Will the barrier hold?" — "He's trying to destroy it!"
Worried murmurs spread across the Allied Forces.
But the four Narutos just smirked.
BOOM!!
A massive explosion surged within the barrier. The sky itself was scorched by the rising pillar of fire, but the barrier held firm.
"We did it! The barrier held!" — "What an incredible seal! Even that attack couldn't break it!"
"Look inside!" someone shouted.
"The Ten Tails blew itself up!" — "Haha! Serves you right, dumb Ten Tails!"
"This isn't just a barrier," Hashirama muttered, smirking. "It reflects the force back."
"Incredible! The previous Hokage are seriously strong!" — "By the way, where's the Third Hokage?" — "Who cares? That old geezer wouldn't help anyway."
Uchiha Clan Grounds.
"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique! Susanoo! Thousand Years of Death!!" Sasuke's battle cries echoed...
Suddenly, several of Hashirama's Wood Clones appeared. "I'll open the barrier for you! Follow me!"
"HAA!!" A mob of shinobi howled and charged.
One Wood Clone approached Uchiha Madara. "Come on! Sorry for the wait. Let's fight!"
"Nah," Madara said, lowering his Gunbai war fan and sitting down. "I'll wait for your real body. A clone's too boring."
"How about me then?" Naruto suddenly appeared beside Madara.
"...Mud Play Guy," Madara muttered darkly.
Just as the shinobi were about to rush into the Four Red Yang Formation, a figure blocked their path.
"Naruto?!" Hashirama's clone called. "What's the matter?"
Naruto turned, smiling. "I'll take care of this guy myself."
"What?!" Hashirama gasped. "That's—"
Naruto unsheathed a black-bladed sword—Zanpakutō—and slowly entered the barrier. The Wood Clone formed a hand seal, and the Four Red Yang Formation sealed shut.
"How can you control the barrier?!" Hashirama exclaimed.
"Your wife taught me," the Wood Clone answered cheekily.
"What?!" Hashirama blinked in confusion.
Inside the barrier, Naruto walked calmly.
"Naruto!!" the Allied Forces shouted.
The Ten Tails sensed the threat and split off thousands of grotesque clones, howling as they rushed Naruto.
"That's a lot!" Shikamaru shouted. "Open the barrier, let us in!"
Naruto said nothing. He turned and smiled, Mangekyō Sharingan spinning slowly. Chakra pathways formed above his head like holograms.
Ninjutsu of all types burst out around him!
His Zanpakutō turned pitch black. With a flick, a massive black Slash Wave erupted, annihilating dozens of Ten Tails' spawn.
"As long as I don't shout it out, it counts as basic Taijutsu," Naruto muttered, strolling forward.
The shinobi outside the barrier watched, stunned.
Madara clenched his fists as a sense of dread crept over him. Chakra surged as he formed seals quickly.
The Ten Tails roared violently, thrashing to escape Naruto's approach.
"Die!" Naruto stood before it, Zanpakutō raised.
"Emission!"
Black and red energy surged down the blade.
"Single Slash Style!" Naruto formed a hand seal.
"Getsuga—!"
The slash extended for hundreds of meters, carving a direct path toward the Ten Tails!
"NO!!" Madara screamed, forming a seal.
Suddenly, a new figure burst into the barrier—Obito, his body half-controlled by Black Zetsu, hands flying through seals.
"Do it, Obito! You owe me!" Madara shouted.
"What?!" Madara froze.
Inside the barrier, the Ten Tails suddenly retracted, shrinking rapidly and disappearing into Obito's body!
"Six Paths: Ten Tails Coffin Seal!!"
BOOM!!
Naruto's slash missed, shattering the Four Red Yang Formation.
The battlefield froze.
A massive white sphere floated in the air, enveloping Obito.
Madara sat down slowly, breathing heavily. Though he originally wanted Obito to use the Rinne Rebirth Technique, he hadn't expected Obito to seal the Ten Tails into himself. But at least it wasn't lost.
The white sphere slowly cracked open.
A new form emerged—Obito, transformed. His skin was pale, bone-like protrusions on his back, nine tomoe arranged on his black back cloak, floating midair with no visible chakra control.
All shinobi stared in horror.
"Did the Ten Tails disappear?!" — "What happened?!" — "Is it dead?!"
"That..." Minato narrowed his eyes.
"No doubt," Tobirama added, grim.
Hashirama formed a seal.
"This is..."
"The Ten Tails Jinchūriki!!" Hashirama announced.
Obito slowly turned his gaze to Naruto... then looked at the sky. Feather-like white particles drifted down.
The atmosphere froze.
Obito had become something else entirely. And he wasn't holding back anymore.
