Naruto starts from the Otsutsuki bloodline

Chapter 144 The Yin Release Power of the Rinnegan (Second Update)
"Nagato!"

In the heart of the Land of Grass, space rapidly distorted, and Obito Uchiha and his two companions appeared in a disheveled state.

Of the three of them, only Xiao Nan is intact.

Obito Uchiha lost almost half of his body, and Nagato wasn't in much better shape.

Nagato, who was already emaciated, had his entire arm and part of his chest shaved off, and even a section of his leg was broken off!
Through the somewhat charred wound, one could almost see the internal muscle tissue, and even the internal organs.

Nagato is now completely unconscious.

"Nagato. Nagato!?"

Konan turned pale at the sight of the horrific scene. Of the three of them, Yahiko was already dead, leaving only her and Nagato.

In some ways, Nagato was the pillar that kept her alive.

If even Nagato dies, then there will truly be no reason for her to continue living.

"What exactly happened? Did all six clones lose?"

Obito Uchiha spoke with displeasure, looking particularly grumpy.

"Is this all you've done?"

"And what about you? What are you doing?"

Konan was surrounded by papers again as she glared at Obito.

"You have no idea how strong Kitagawa Gen is. Do you dare to face him directly?"

"Humph!"

This question left Obito Uchiha speechless for a moment, as he was also a victim of Kitagawa Gen.

"You are here."

Fortunately, at that moment, a pitcher plant broke through the ground, and Black Zetsu, seeing the tense atmosphere among the group, roughly understood what was going on.

Especially after seeing the miserable state of Obito and Nagato, he knew that they had lost miserably this time!

"If you don't mind, let me give it a try."

He sighed and slowly walked to Xiao Nan's side, speaking under her wary gaze.

"Perhaps there's something I can do."

Xiao Nan frowned, but in the end she nodded; she really had no other choice.

Black Zetsu didn't waste any time; White Zetsu's body split off from him and then spread out to wrap around Nagato.

This scene made Obito Uchiha raise an eyebrow. He immediately glanced at Black Zetsu out of the corner of his eye, and Black Zetsu nodded slightly.

Using White Zetsu's chakra to protect Nagato, rather than transplanting cells into him, is within the scope he can currently accept.

He's much more cautious than Obito!
"cough cough"

It must be said that Nagato's vitality is truly tenacious; under the protection of White Zetsu's chakra, he actually woke up.

"Nagato!"

Xiao Nan was a little excited, but Hei Jue shook his head.

"We've only protected him; we still need to find a suitable doctor. But he should be able to recover slowly. Now let's talk about what exactly happened."

Black Zetsu was genuinely curious about what was going on and why the fight had turned out like this!
"I was blocked by Kakashi Hatake and had no way to send reinforcements. His techniques are not simple."

Obito Uchiha spoke coldly, his fists hardening slightly at the thought of his battle with Kakashi.

Whether it was Kakashi's strategy for dealing with the enemy, the location of their battle, or everything he encountered in order to escape, it all came down to this.
"I lost."

Nagato was still somewhat dazed after waking up, and he hesitated when he heard the question, but after a moment of hesitation, he still sighed and spoke.

"That brat is much more difficult to deal with than I imagined. He not only possesses the Flying Thunder God Technique, but also Ice Release."

His analysis of intelligence is particularly unique; it's as if he can see right through me at a glance.

Moreover, my abilities were too scattered, and he defeated them one by one; I simply couldn't defeat him.

Looking back on this battle, he felt a deep sense of defeat.

The single clone was no match for that guy; he could only watch helplessly as his clone was destroyed!

That feeling really frustrated him.

"Intelligence analysis?"

Obito didn't want to speak; he too had been defeated in the same way, while Black Zetsu seemed to have grasped the key.

"Your strength was too scattered, which gave him an opportunity?"

"No, he was incredibly powerful to begin with, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to use Rasengan against Chibaku Tensei."

Although Nagato found it difficult to admit, he accepted his defeat.

“To deal with someone like that, if the force is dispersed, there is no chance. If the force is concentrated, I will not be afraid of him.”

After being severely beaten, Nagato calmed down considerably.

Recalling some of Kitagawa Gen's words, especially the phrase "concentrated power can break through stubborn rocks," he deeply agreed.

Besides this 'concentrated power,' Kitagawa Gen's words also seem to have been inserted into his mind.

He simply didn't want to think about it anymore; this crushing defeat was too painful, and he needed to focus on the present!

"It's really scary. This kid is beyond my expectations."

Black Zetsu nodded, while Obito Uchiha remained silent.

This operation was truly a crushing defeat.

Perhaps the only thing to be happy about is that we've roughly figured out Kitagawa Gen's exact strength.

But what good will knowing do? It will only cause more pain!
"Let's leave here first, and discuss this properly when we get back."

Black Zetsu sighed, breaking the silence: one was Otsutsuki Genshiki, and the other was Kitagawa Genshiki.

Both of them are enemies, and neither of them is easy to deal with.

Even the first one, Black Zetsu didn't have much confidence in dealing with!

"Take it slow. According to the plan, these two might start fighting on their own, which could be an opportunity."

Thinking of this, Black Zetsu calmed himself down a little.

Just as they were about to leave, he suddenly remembered something.

"Oh right, someone's missing! Where's Raiga Kurosuki?"

"."

"Dead again?"

"."

"How come all the new recruits either ran away or died?!"

"Kakashi-sensei, are you alright?"

In the Land of Grass, Kitagawa Gen used the Flying Thunder God Technique to arrive beside Kakashi.

As soon as he landed, he saw that there was an arm on the ground!
"This is... Obito Uchiha's arm?"

"Ah."

Kakashi nodded, scrutinizing Kitagawa Gen intently before finally relenting.

"It seems you're alright. I was worried something had happened to you; it scared me to death."

"I'm fine, but you're the one who interrupted me?"

Kitagawa Gen's face was full of strange expressions as he stared at the arm in disbelief.

Is Obito Uchiha addicted to cutting off arms?
And
This arm seems to be Obito Uchiha's original one, right?
Although Obito Uchiha was always a 'Six Paths Frankenstein's monster', he also had some 'original stuff' in him.

Now, has Kakashi removed his original parts?

"Yes, he was in a hurry to leave, which gave him a weakness, so I seized the opportunity."

Kakashi nodded, recalling the battle just now, while Obito Uchiha seemed somewhat absent-minded.

Especially as the giant sphere in the sky shattered, he clearly sensed that this guy was about to leave.

Therefore, he seized the opportunity and dealt a heavy blow to Obito, which resulted in his current arm.

"Speaking of which, this was caused by you. What's the deal with that boulder? Are you really alright?"

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Besides, I even tried out my research results."

Kitagawa Gen smiled; he was quite satisfied with his performance in his "larger size" this time.

The Six Paths of Pain are very strong, but when they are spread out, the pressure on him is not that great. He can deal with all of this using his normal state!
His only regret was that his "Bie Tian Zui" technique was not very effective, and could even be described as having the opposite effect.

He went to preach some grand principles to Nagato, only to be met with a Shinra Tensei.

"If I had known, I would have talked to him about bonds and friendship, maybe we could have had a good conversation."

However, Kitagawa Gen was also petty; if they couldn't reach an agreement, then they shouldn't talk anymore!

He would retaliate immediately if Nagato dared to make a move; that slash not only hit Nagato but also an unfortunate soul.
"Look at this, Kakashi-sensei."

Kitagawa Gen took out a scroll and then quickly unwrapped it.

"This is."

As the smoke billowed, a small piece of white flesh, a withered arm and leg, and a pair of swords appeared before him.

"This piece of meat is very small. I cut it off from Obito Uchiha's body. I felt something was wrong, so I put it away."

Kitagawa Gen said that he was also conflicted about whether or not to take this thing out.

But after thinking it over again, he felt that this thing was probably useless to him, because he already had the power he needed!

Konoha will find this thing in the future, so he might as well take it out slowly to see how it works. Anyway, I still have Obito's two arms.

As for Nagato...
He decided to treat it as a spoil of war, not wanting it to be taken back.

"I wonder if he's dead or not."

Whether Nagato lives or dies, he was somewhat conflicted after taking action.

It would be best if he didn't die, as he could help me collect the tailed beasts. Besides, if someone dies, there won't be as many tasks to complete!

If he dies
"It's a bit troublesome, but Obito Uchiha won't stop moving. If all else fails, I'll have to use the 'Otsutsuki Genji' technique."

Otsutsuki Genshiki is his last resort, and he generally wouldn't use it lightly, but he wouldn't suppress it either.

"These two knives belong to Raiga Kurosugi."

Kitagawa Gen continued, without specifically mentioning Nagato's situation.

"If I remember correctly, he was one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. He died here today, so I naturally took his sword."

"Those people from Kirigakure are really making trouble for us."

Kakashi couldn't help but twitch his lips as he looked at the two swords. He realized that his relationship with the people of Kirigakure had always been complicated and intertwined over the years.

Furthermore, the Akatsuki organization seemed to really like his recruitment of rogue ninjas from Kirigakure, including Juzo Biwa and Kisame Hoshigaki.

Now that another Raiga Kurosuki has appeared, he's starting to suspect that the Akatsuki are recruiting rogue ninja from Kirigakure.

"Never mind, let's put it away and go back."

Kakashi rubbed his head and suddenly laughed.

"But we were lucky this time; it seems like none of us were injured."

"Indeed, we were lucky this time."

Kitagawa Gen looked Kakashi up and down, then stroked his chin and nodded.

"But let's talk about that later. During the battle just now, I seemed to sense an unusual chakra."

"Unusual chakra?"

“That’s right, that chakra is very special. It was originally in Kusagakure, but it seems to have left the village. I think we should look for it.”

"Is that so?"

Kakashi pondered for a moment. The unusual chakra Kitagawa Gen had mentioned was definitely not simple.

Although I don't know what happened, I've been looking for it but haven't found it.
"Wait a minute, you just mentioned Kusagakure?"

"Ah."

"You were fighting near Kusagakure?"

"It seems that way."

"."

Kakashi froze, his face turning deathly pale.

He couldn't even imagine what the consequences would be after that huge rock exploded near Kusagakure!

Ruined.
Kakashi swallowed hard, while Kitagawa Gen blinked, because he noticed his system flashing!

[Complete the side quest: My art style is superior to yours]

[Reward obtained: Yin Release power of the Rinnegan]

Upon seeing this reward, Kitagawa Gen's eyes lit up; what he needed right now was Yin Release!

"Also, my art style is superior to Nagato's; it's not that I distorted Pain's appearance."

Did I nerf Nagato?
