Chapter 411 - Chapter 411: Could This Be Fate?

Seeing this sudden scene, Obito, who had originally planned to properly "talk" with the two Black Zetsu, instantly lost any mood to "talk."

Without another word, he opened the Kamui space and shoved the two Black Zetsu back inside.

Then, he looked at Madara, his eyes filled with doubt, "Madara, what kind of trick are you pulling again?"

Uchiha Madara stared dumbfounded at that blood-soaked figure, "If I said this was just an accident, would you believe it?"

Obito naturally believed him, but still, 'What a coincidence.'

At the Mountains' Graveyard, in the underground cavern where Madara was, a half-destroyed body suddenly fell down.

So, could it be this person was also like Uchiha Obito? Crushed by rocks, but because of some instinctive use of phasing ability, barely managed to survive?

Obito carefully examined the injured one, and soon discovered. It wasn't "he," but "she." Her main injury came from a violent explosion, her body blown apart by the blast. It wasn't the same as his earlier case of being crushed by boulders.

Then Obito noticed the forehead protector still tied to the wounded one's head. He couldn't help but sigh, Konoha's forehead protector quality really was something.

The person was blasted until their face was unrecognizable, flesh torn to shreds, yet the forehead protector remained perfectly intact.

Next, Obito saw beneath the shredded clothes, a skintight outfit wrapped close to the body, looking more and more familiar.

Green, elastic.

'Isn't this Might Guy's signature jumpsuit?'

F'emale. Konoha shinobi. Tight green jumpsuit.'

Obito immediately thought of one person, 'Isn't this Sato Yuki, the younger sister of that Iwagakure spy, Sato Kawa?'

He still remembered Sato Yuki, only at first she was so heavily injured he hadn't recognized her.

Thinking of this, Obito looked at Madara, "Save her. I know her, somewhat."

Madara gave Obito a surprised look, "You sure know a lot of people from Konoha."

Then, without hesitation, he walked over to the half-destroyed Sato Yuki, picked her up, and quickly headed toward a laboratory specifically for grafting Hashirama's cells.

Passing by Obito, Madara said, "I'll try stitching her body back together with White Zetsu cells. You find a medical ninjutsu expert to keep her alive."

Obito nodded. A medical expert, he certainly knew one, 'Looks like Rin's vacation is about to be ruined.'

At once, he activated Kamui, vanishing before Madara, and in no time reappeared with Rin.

Rin was still confused, looking at the dark, gloomy cavern, "Obito, what happened? Why so urgent?"

Obito immediately brought Rin into Madara's lab, pointing at Sato Yuki, who was now lying on a bed, already fused with White Zetsu cells.

"It's Sato Yuki. She's gravely injured. She needs your medical ninjutsu to keep her alive."

Rin's small mouth opened slightly. She had treated countless wounded back at Kikyo Mountain, so she wasn't frightened by such a gruesome sight. She was only surprised that the injured one was Sato Yuki.

"She's just a genin, what's she doing on Iwagakure's battlefield?"

Obito thought a moment, "She probably asked for it herself, even begged Kakashi to write her a recommendation. After all, she still has a score to settle with Iwagakure."

Rin sighed, "Kakashi too… how could he act so recklessly?"

Still, despite her words, she didn't hesitate, moving right next to Sato Yuki and working together with Madara to treat her.

With Rin's help, the situation slowly began to improve…

Obito closed his eyes and began sensing.

After a while, he opened them again.

"As I thought, there was a battle outside. There's also a squad of Iwa-nin nearby. I'll handle it."

With that, Obito's figure vanished from the spot.

———

Outside the cavern, Iwagakure jonin Oishi looked at the explosion marks all around, still shaken, "That Konoha kunoichi was insane, strapping so many explosive tags to herself and rushing me, wanting to drag me down with her?"

"And her final burst of speed wasn't normal. Just a mere genin, how could she move that fast?"

Beside him, the other two Iwa-nin, Mahiru and Hikari, didn't take it seriously.

Hikari said, "Oishi, you're just being careless. If you actually got blown up by a Konoha genin, you'd be laughed at."

"But, at first, that girl was clever, using the terrain to keep tangling with us. Why did she suddenly lose her senses after seeing you, like she went mad?"

Oishi first shook his head, "I don't know either."

Then he hesitated, "Maybe it's related to a pawn I once planted in Konoha. Konoha might have used Sato Kawa's camouflage concealment jutsu to confirm that I am the superior of the one code-named Zero."

"That kunoichi who tried to kill me, could she be that family's only surviving girl, Sato Yuki?"

Hikari laughed, "Oishi, sometimes I really envy you. With your camouflage concealment jutsu, you stirred up the intelligence departments, even infiltrated Konoha, making great contributions to Iwa."

"I'm not the same. I can only rack up achievements on the battlefield backlines. But in the battlefield frontlines, you have to face a monster. That's not easy at all."

Oishi's face darkened with worry, "Sigh, who would've thought, Konoha lost White Fang, Tsunade got hemophobia, Jiraiya stays away long-term, yet they gave rise to the Yellow Flash."

"We… might not be able to hold out much longer."

As soon as these words came out, the three of them fell silent.

After a while, Mahiru changed the subject, "Target shouldn't have survived such an explosion. Let's go back and report."

The three nodded, preparing to leave.

But just then, they suddenly heard a heavy sigh.

A figure slowly rose up from underground.

Obito looked at the three familiar faces before him, and spoke faintly.

"Well, what a coincidence. To think I'd run into you here."

The three immediately went on guard. This man had been lurking underground for who knew how long, yet they hadn't sensed him at all.

Hikari gripped a kunai. Seeing clearly who it was, cold sweat poured down his face uncontrollably.

"You're… Uchiha Obito. I've seen you in the Ninja Handbook!"

After all, Namikaze Minato was right now clashing head-on with Iwa's main forces, slaughtering them until they were terrified, already unable to hold on.

All information on Namikaze Minato had now been written into the very front of the Ninja Handbook. Upon encountering him, missions could be immediately abandoned and retreat permitted.

Naturally, all data on Team 7 was included as well.

Mahiru's face went grim. Though Uchiha Obito was only ten years old, he was a true killer. And if Obito was here… didn't that mean Namikaze Minato might also be nearby?

He said cautiously, "Sir, though Konoha and Iwa are at war, we have no wish to be your enemy. We'll withdraw immediately, would that be acceptable?"
