Naruto: I'm in Konoha, my name is Uzumaki Menma

Chapter 96 Teasing Obito

At the Mizukage Building, the smoke from the battle gradually dissipated with the wind. Obito Uchiha stood in place, warily looking around.

A pitcher plant emerged from Obito's feet, and the white Zetsu's half spoke, "There's no one else around. That woman didn't come."

Upon hearing this, Obito's tense nerves relaxed slightly.

Several months have passed since the last battle with Shura and that Uchiha named 'Nameless', but Obito still feels lingering fear whenever he recalls that battle.

Especially when facing that woman's Mangekyou Sharingan, the sense of oppression was immense!
And the terrifying power unleashed by Susanoo, the third power of the Mangekyou Sharingan! It still haunts him to this day!

In contrast, although Shura had a brief encounter with him, he did not demonstrate any ridiculously strong combat power.

However, for that woman to submit to Shura, Shura must have some extraordinary abilities.

"What are you doing here?" Obito remained in his intangible state and mentally timed his attack. Once five minutes were up, he would immediately enter the Kamui dimension, not giving his opponent a chance to engage in a prolonged battle.

Obito's intangibility ability can only last for five minutes, and he cannot maintain the intangibility state when he enters the Kamui dimension, so this information must be carefully concealed.

However, Obito was unaware that Nagato had already detected the duration of Obito's Hollowfication using the Rain Tiger Free Technique, which was five minutes.

Xiao Nan also began preparing for the six hundred billion detonating tags.

"I heard Kirigakure is a bit chaotic, so I came here to take a stroll and have some fun." Menma, sitting on the ruins, spoke in a flippant tone, as if he were really just wandering around.

Obito naturally wouldn't believe such an explanation.

"What, have you taken a fancy to some Mist Ninja? Tell me, and maybe I can help you force him to become a rogue ninja," Obito deliberately probed.

A powerful ninja like Shura would not attack the Five Great Ninja Villages without a reason, so Obito was always looking for Shura's reason for attacking Konoha and Kumogakure.

Obito pondered in his mind what Kirigakure might have that Shura might want.

A family with bloodline limits? The Three-Tails and the Six-Tails? Seven Ninja Swords?

It's all possible.

Seeing Obito's probing, Menma's lips curled up slightly, unable to resist teasing Obito, so he said, "It's very simple. One of my companions was killed by the Hidden Mist Ninja, so I've come to seek revenge."

As soon as Menma finished speaking, Obito suddenly raised his hand, and countless sharp branches shot over like arrows.

Wood Release·The Art of Cutting!

These branches pierced Shura's body deeply.

boom!
However, the next second, the Shura who was hit suddenly dispersed the smoke, and his pierced body turned into a wooden stake.

Substitution technique.

"Tsk tsk tsk, so easily losing your composure?" A mocking voice came from not far from Obito.

Obito quickly turned around, took out the Uchiha Flame Fan from the Kamui dimension, and hurled it towards the source of the sound.

A crisp metallic clang echoed from the darkness.

Uchiha Homura's fan was bounced back.

"Who exactly are you!" Obito grabbed the iron chain and retrieved the Flame Fan, holding it in his hand with fear and wariness.

"No one could possibly know about that!" Obito, who had been tricked time and time again, finally realized what was happening.

Beneath the tiger-striped mask, a single eye—the Mangekyou Sharingan—blossoms with a scarlet light.

A few months ago, when they fought, the opponent called himself "Uchiha Obito," which provoked Obito. In addition, the opponent was a woman with the Mangekyou Sharingan, which prevented Obito from using many of his techniques.

For example, Uchiha Flame Fan and Wood Release.

This time, he was well-prepared and extremely cautious. However, the words spoken by the other party once again shattered Obito's psychological defenses.

He was almost certain that the other party knew his true identity.

However, Obito couldn't understand it at all. Even Minato couldn't guess his identity, and even Kakashi thought he had been dead for many years!

The only ones who know his true identity are Madara, who has already died, Black Zetsu who is by his side, and the group of White Zetsu who took care of him in the past!
However, even so, Obito would never admit it.

Obito Uchiha had already died that night along with Rin Nohara.

"Ah, who am I?" Shura slowly emerged from the shadows, feigning deep thought.

Then he clenched his right fist and lightly tapped his left palm: "I remember now."

"I am actually, Hashirama Senju!" Menma imitated Hashirama's voice.

"Hmph! Playing tricks!" Obito sneered, feeling humiliated once again.

Since the other party refuses to show their true colors, they must have ulterior motives and conspiracies.

Otherwise, once he knew that Obito had secretly controlled the Fourth Mizukage, Yagura, he certainly wouldn't have been arguing with him here. He would have gone outside and shouted, forcing Obito to abandon Yagura as a pawn.

Since the other party had other plans for coming to Kirigakure, Obito decided not to get entangled with them.

The time for etherealization was almost up, so he immediately activated his divine power, and his entire body was engulfed by the rotating spatial fluctuations.

Jue quickly burrowed underground and escaped using the mayfly technique.

"How boring. Are you so easily amused?" Menma shrugged as he watched the two disappear from his sight, without stopping them.

After all, he wasn't looking to cause trouble for Obito and Zetsu; he just happened to notice that the two guys were there, so he came over to check on them and, incidentally, tease Obito.

Hey, just for fun.

Menma turned to look at the battlefield outside. Kaguya Clan Chief was surrounded and attacked by many Jonin from Kirigakure. After his hands and feet were severed, he activated the Corpse Bone Pulse: Early Fern Dance on his deathbed, taking down three Jonin with him while severely injuring dozens of Kirigakure ninjas.

However, all the rebels from the Kaguya clan were killed in battle, and the Hidden Mist ANBU have already gone to Kaguya's territory to wipe out the remaining rebels.

"At least they have more backbone than the Uchiha... no, their clan leader has more backbone than Fugaku," Menma commented in a low voice.

The dozens of Kaguya clan members who died in battle took at least one Kirigakure ninja with them before they died.

The contrast between the Kaguya clan and the Uchiha clan perfectly illustrates the saying, "A bad soldier is a bad soldier, but a bad general makes a bad army."

Fugaku's indecisiveness and cowardice should bear at least 80% of the responsibility for the Uchiha clan's extermination.

In contrast, the Kaguya clan.

Although the rebellion failed, the Kaguya clan displayed a desperate determination, inflicting heavy casualties on Kirigakure.

In order to suppress this rebellion, Kirigakure lost five Jonin and more than sixty Chunin and Genin, and there were as many as three or four hundred wounded.

The losses were comparable to those of a major battle during the Fourth Shinobi World War.

Half an hour later.

On a small hill outside Kirigakure, when Menma arrived at the meeting place with Orochimaru, he found no trace of Orochimaru.

'This guy, is he running that fast?' Menma was pondering when he suddenly felt the fog around him thicken.

"Hehe, interesting." Menma chuckled lightly, and Kagura's Mind's Eye instantly activated, sensing the enemy hidden in the mist.

The decapitation sword, the twin flounder swords, and the samehada sword attacked simultaneously from three directions!
