Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

Jigen stared at the spot where Obito had disappeared, muttering to himself,

"Space-time ninjutsu? It seems to be the ability of his eyes. This ability is really impressive; I couldn't even detect his spatial coordinates!"

......

Within the Divine Might Space,

Obito landed on the ground with A on his back. He was panting heavily. Once his breathing calmed down, he said in a deep voice,

"That was close! That guy also has spatial abilities. Luckily, I didn't reveal my Divine Might Space just now. If he had seen it, he might have actually come looking for this place!"

Thinking of how terrifying Jigen was, Obito was still shaken. He patted Ay beside him, waking him from his unconsciousness.

Upon waking, Ai immediately looked around and shouted,

"Bi! Bi! Where are you?!"

Obito sighed softly and said,

"His tailed beast has already been extracted. You should be well aware of the consequences of a Jinchuriki losing their tailed beast, right?"

Ai's expression froze, then tears streamed uncontrollably from his eyes. He slammed his fist into the ground, roaring with bloodshot eyes,

"I must kill that bastard!"

Obito shook his head, his words piercing A's heart like a sharp knife.

“You are not even in the same league as him. Only Lord Chiga can deal with him.”

Ai was so choked by those words that he spat out a mouthful of blood. He coughed violently a few times and almost fainted again.

He knew Obito was telling the truth, but his heart was now filled with hatred, and he had lost his reason.

He suddenly sprang up from the ground and punched Obito.

However, in Obito's eyes, who possessed the Sharingan, A, whose body was already extremely weak, was not much faster than a tortoise.

Obito simply tilted his head slightly to dodge A's attack. Then, he created a black rod and pierced A's shoulder, pinning him to the ground.

After all, he's someone who's followed Ban for a while, so his moves are all about speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness!

A, after being penetrated like that, completely quieted down. He struggled to lift his head and looked at Obito, asking,

"Sharingan? You're... one of the Hokage's subordinates?"

Obito nodded and said,

"My mission is complete. We can discuss anything else when I see Lord Chiga."

"Wait! Can I ask you for a favor?"

Ai struggled to lift his head, then slammed it down again. Obito frowned as he watched this and asked,

"What are you doing?"

Tears mingled with blood on Ai's face, and a look of pain crossed his features as he spoke.

“Bee’s body is still there. I would like to ask you to take him with you, is that alright?”

Obito was silent for a moment, then nodded and said,

"I can grant your request, but you'll have to wait a while; that guy should still be there."

Upon hearing Obito's agreement, A was overjoyed. He kept banging his head against the ground and thanking him repeatedly.

Obito stayed in the Kamui dimension for a while, and then reappeared in the Cloud and Thunder Gorge. By this time, Jigen had also left, so Obito took Killer Bee, who was still lying on the ground, and returned to the Kamui dimension.

When A saw Killer Bee, tears welled up in his eyes again, and he called out in a choked voice,

"Compare....."

However, Killer Bee, whom Obito and A thought was already dead, suddenly moved his lips and let out a sound.

"Brother..."

Chapter 364 Otsutsuki Isshiki

"By... you're still alive!?"

Kirabi's voice sounded very weak, but to Ai's ears it was like heavenly music.

Obito very considerately pulled the black rod out of A's shoulder. A didn't utter a sound. He rushed to Killer Bee's side and hugged him.

Killer Bee glanced at Obito and asked,

"Big brother, who is he?"

Ai wiped away her tears and replied,

"He's the Hokage's subordinate. If it weren't for him, I would have died at the hands of that Jigen!"

"Ahem, I see, thank you so much..."

Killer Bee struggled to get up from A's arms, but having just lost his tailed beast and been thoroughly beaten by Jigen, he was too weak to do so and finally collapsed helplessly into A's arms.

Seeing this, Ai quickly asked,

"Bi, how are you feeling right now?"

Bi waved his hand and said,

"The demon left me with a piece of its tail, which saved my life."

Obito raised an eyebrow, recalling how Nagato had brought back a section of an octopus tail when he went to capture the Eight-Tails.

It seems that for Jinchūriki, the Eight-Tails is indeed the tailed beast with the strongest ability to protect itself.

Although he survived, Killer Bee was still very depressed because the Eight-Tails was more than just a tailed beast to him. After so many years of living together, he had long regarded the Eight-Tails as family.

A knew about Killer Bee's feelings for the Eight-Tails. He sighed and turned to look at Obito.

"You are a subordinate of the Hokage. Would you be so kind as to take us to see the Hokage?"

Obito nodded. He had come out to find Jigen, and now that he had found him, he naturally wanted to hurry back and report.

With a thought, he opened the passage to the outside world and then pulled the two of them out.

Killer Bee and A looked around in bewilderment, muttering to themselves.

"This is...Konoha?"

The three were standing in front of the Hokage Building when two Anbu members appeared before them. They recognized A as the Fourth Raikage, but embarrassingly, they didn't know Obito.

Obito briefly explained that he was Chiga's subordinate. Since he still had his Sharingan activated, the two Anbu members treated him with considerable respect.

One of the ANBU members wearing a monkey mask was about to go in to report when suddenly, Itachi walked out of the building.

He nodded to Obito, then spoke to the two ANBU members.

"You all go down first, he's one of us."

The two ANBU members bowed to Itachi and then withdrew.

Itachi then led the three to the door of Chiga's office. He let Obito and the others go in, and then left.

Obito knocked on the door, and Chiga's voice came from inside.

"come in."

Obito pushed open the door and entered. Killer Bee and A exchanged a glance, and for some reason, they suddenly felt a little uneasy.

Chiga glanced at the two disheveled brothers behind Obito and asked,

What's going on between them?

Obito told Chiga about what happened at Unraikyo Gorge, and Chiga looked at Ai with sympathy after hearing it.

The Hidden Cloud Village was first robbed of its tadpole by Pain, and now the Eight-Tails has been taken by Jigen. They've really had the worst luck ever.

When Ai saw Chiga again, his attitude was completely different from before. He put aside his arrogance and bowed to Chiga.

"Lord Hokage, thank you for saving me and Killer Bee!"

Chika waved her hand and said,

"No need to thank me, it was Obito who saved you."

"Thank you, thank you..."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Qianhe stood up from his chair and came to Ai's side. He glanced at the bloody hole in Ai's shoulder and asked,

"That's quite a serious injury. Was it done by Cixian?"

"Uh...yes!"

Ai very consciously shifted the blame onto Jigen, and Obito opened his mouth, but swallowed back what he wanted to say.

Chiga nodded. He remembered that Jigen liked to use black rods as weapons when he was in Karma, and the wounds on Ai's body were also quite similar in size to the black rods.

He reached out and placed his hand on Ai's shoulder, channeling a small amount of Yang Release chakra into him.

Nourished by Yang Release chakra, A's wounds healed at a visible speed, and were completely restored in no time.

When Chiga tried to treat Killer Bee again, Killer Bee quickly waved his hand and said,

"I don't need to trouble the Hokage. The chakra that Ushiki left me is enough for me to recover!"

When the name Ushioni was mentioned, Killer Bee's face fell, and Chiga patted him on the shoulder as a gesture of comfort.

Chiga was also quite surprised that Jigen had absorbed the Eight-Tails. When did this guy start thinking about tailed beasts?

Moreover, apart from the Eight-Tails and Nine-Tails, the chakra of the other tailed beasts has been absorbed into Kaguya's body. So, does this mean his next target is Kaguya?

Thinking of this, Chika turned to Obito and said,

"Take the two of them to Minato and have him make arrangements. I'll go and meet with this Jigen."

"Yes!"

......

In a forest,

Jigen was grabbing a Mist Ninja by the neck and holding him up in front of him.

Around Jigen lay the lifeless bodies of Kirigakure ninja. They were unlucky; they had come out on a mission only to run into Jigen.
