Naruto was utterly confused. It was one thing for Old Obito to refute him, but why did the two masked men beside Old Obito also refute him at the same time?
Who were they?
He couldn't help but say, "If you have the guts, take off your masks and let me see your true faces beneath the masks. Hiding your heads and showing your tails, what kind of heroic men are you?"
Young Obito kind of wanted to laugh. It was fine for him and Old Obito, but Rin certainly wasn't any so-called heroic man.
As for taking off the white mask to let Naruto see his true face, Young Obito actually had an attitude of indifference.
But he definitely wouldn't take it off voluntarily.
He spread his hands and said, "I'm just a passerby, always watching the show from the side."
"What, you want to pull me into the battle too?"
"Have you thought clearly about the consequences of doing this?"
Naruto's expression showed displeasure, "I will personally break your mask!"
Young Obito suddenly remembered in his previous life, when Naruto and Kakashi cooperated and shattered his mask.
He suddenly felt that, for a brat like Naruto, he indeed lacked a proper lesson.
His tone carried a dangerous air, "Is that so?"
In the next moment, Young Obito appeared mysteriously in front of Naruto.
"Seems like I still have to make you suffer a little before you start listening!"
Young Obito threw a punch toward Naruto's stomach.
Naruto was startled. Young Obito's movement had no warning at all, and his speed was so fast that Naruto didn't see anything clearly. By the time he sensed something wrong, Young Obito's fist was already close to his stomach.
Luckily, in his golden body mode, his speed had also increased tremendously, even not inferior to the Fourth Raikage.
He almost instinctively pushed off the ground hard, kicked out fiercely, and his entire figure retreated at extreme speed, barely dodging Young Obito's punch.
However, before Naruto had even landed, Young Obito's figure again flashed and disappeared.
The next moment, Young Obito's figure appeared in front of Naruto again, and another punch was thrown.
Naruto's eyes widened instantly. He didn't understand how Young Obito was able to perform instant movement.
But his body instincts were even faster than his consciousness. Strangely, his arms had already been raised instinctively to block in front of him.
BANG!
Young Obito's punch was blocked by Naruto's arms.
Young Obito couldn't help but exclaim. Naruto usually seemed reckless, but when it came to actual combat, he had a sharp combat intuition.
Logically speaking, his Flying Thunder God had already surpassed Teacher Minato's. Without using any markings, he could appear anywhere within his field of vision at will. No matter how fast Naruto reacted, he shouldn't have been able to keep up.
Yet both of his attacks had been blocked by Naruto.
If it had been Kakashi, he would've been down already.
Just as Young Obito was slightly distracted, Naruto instead was the first to counterattack.
At this moment, Naruto's arms and legs couldn't be used, but his entire body could be used as a weapon. After blocking Young Obito's punch, he was unwilling to be outdone and used a headbutt, slamming toward Young Obito.
Looking at the headbutt coming closer and closer, Young Obito originally intended to use intangibility to dodge, but for some reason, he chose to take it head-on with his own forehead.
Thud!
Naruto's forehead and Young Obito's white mask collided violently. Then, both of their figures flew backward and returned to their respective companions' sides.
Naruto held his head and shouted loudly to Killer Bee, "Ouch, that really hurts!"
But Killer Bee didn't respond to Naruto and instead fell into thought. Just now, Young Obito's move reminded him of someone.
In his memory, the only one who could perform such instant movement and move even faster than the Fourth Raikage was the late Fourth Hokage.
Moreover, even Namikaze Minato needed markings to aid his movement. But that mysterious short masked man seemed to not need this.
Killer Bee frowned and said to Naruto, "Be careful of that masked man. He might have mastered a space-time ninjutsu faster than your father's. This technique is very tricky."
In fact, there was something Killer Bee didn't say aloud. If the enemy truly was like this, he really didn't know how they could win.
On the other side, Young Obito returned to Rin's side, acting as if nothing had happened.
However, Rin just smiled and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Young Obito said, "It doesn't hurt."
But Rin stretched out a hand, her palm shimmering with purple light, and gently touched Young Obito's mask.
The purple dragon vein chakra instantly invaded the inside of the mask and healed the swelling on Young Obito's forehead.
Rin said, "I told you! Don't act tough."
Young Obito's heart was instantly filled with an indescribable emotion.
In his previous life, during the battle with Naruto's group, he was always alone, only able to watch Naruto repeatedly rise up with the encouragement of his companions.
But on his side, there was no one to comfort him or soothe his wounds.
Otherwise, how could he have possibly lost?
He subconsciously looked at Old Obito, and found that Old Obito happened to be watching him with a somewhat jealous expression.
Old Obito said in his raspy voice, "Still don't need you to make a move. Leave this side to me."
Young Obito kind of wanted to laugh. He nodded, held Rin's small hand, turned around and retreated, giving the space to Old Obito to perform.
Speaking of which, in this open field, he lacked a perfect viewing seat. If only there were a Ten Tails right now, he and Rin could stand on top of it and watch the battle.
On the other side, seeing Young Obito and Rin retreat, Killer Bee let out a breath of relief.
He said to Naruto, "Looks like those two masked people have no intention to join the battle for now. That's good. We can focus on dealing with Uchiha Obito."
"Otherwise, if they interfered, things would become very troublesome."
Naruto sensibly nodded. Although he wanted to break Young Obito and Rin's white masks to see their true faces, right now, stopping Uchiha Obito was more important.
Naruto once again stood in front of Old Obito. The Nine-Tails Chakra Mode that had previously dissipated reappeared, and the golden chakra enveloped his whole body.
Old Obito frowned slightly. Naruto was simply like an undying cockroach. Not to mention injuries, even his chakra seemed to be endless. They'd been fighting for so long, yet there was no obvious decrease.
Moreover, on the side was still an Eight-Tails who could go full Tailed Beast at any moment and cause some trouble.
He somewhat regretted letting Young Obito spectate the whole time. If just now he had let Young Obito join the battle, perhaps it could have ended smoothly.
However, originally all of this should have been his responsibility. It was still better to end it personally.
Thinking this, Old Obito spoke, "Tailed Beast transformation, huh? The First Hokage's Wood Release just happens to counter this move."
As he spoke, Old Obito formed a hand seal, "Then let this wasteland become a forest once again."
"Wood Release: Deep Forest Emergence!"
Instantly, countless giant trees sprang up from the ground, spreading rapidly toward Naruto and Killer Bee…
