Chapter 94 Lead the way
Chapter 94 Lead the way
After leaving the cemetery, Obito slowly closed his eyes to compose himself. When he opened them again, he was as cold as ever. The White Zetsu, who had been sent to monitor Karin's whereabouts, had mysteriously disappeared!
In Konoha, there are very few people who possess this kind of strength, and Obito guessed that it was Hyuga Kito, who was staying here, who did it.
After all, White Zetsu had seemingly exposed himself to him before. Although he weighed the pros and cons and kept his distance from White Zetsu, Obito couldn't think of anyone else in Konoha who could make White Zetsu disappear without a trace.
Moreover, Genjutsu is extremely mysterious, and Hyuga Kito is currently in Konoha. It wouldn't be surprising if he had a way to make White Zetsu disappear silently. After all, apart from infiltrating to gather intelligence and engaging in direct combat, these cannon fodder White Zetsu are at most only at the level of Chunin.
but--
Thinking of this, Obito's eyes turned cold. If it was just that, it wouldn't be able to stop him. But if Hyuga Kito really reacted strongly to this, then it would confirm that Uzumaki Reikawa was from Gen Uchiha.
Once we capture Karin, we'll see how much weight this brat holds in Reikawa's heart. If things go well, we might be able to control a 'combatant' for our own use, since the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques still have some effect.
Of course, there is a way to break this plan. Unless Reikawa Uzumaki doesn't care about Karin at all, and if he does care, and it's true that Genjuro members are angry and exposed because of this, then it would be even better. The hostage is in his hands. If he can't beat her with Kamui, can't he just hide? If this brat is useless, then he can just kill him. Anyway, he won't suffer any losses.
……
Meanwhile, Karin, who was being targeted by Obito, sat on the edge of the bed, green chakra appearing in her hands as she began to repair the bite marks on her arm. Although she was already very tired, the teeth marks on her hands always reminded her of unpleasant memories, so it was better to repair them as soon as possible.
Looking at the slowly healing wound on her hand, Karin suddenly smiled as if she had thought of something. If Reikawa were here, he would probably nag her endlessly when he saw this bite mark.
When the treatment was almost finished, Karin suddenly saw a strand of hair fluttering slightly in front of her eyes. Was that... the wind? But she remembered that she had closed the window.
Karin frowned slightly. "Who?"
However, no one answered. Just as Karin's expression became wary and she realized something was wrong and wanted to leave, a dark figure suddenly darted in!
Before she could react, Karin's vision went black, and she collapsed into the shadowy figure's hand.
Before losing consciousness, Karin's eyes were filled with regret. If she were still in good condition, perhaps... I really shouldn't have been so willful.
As Karin's consciousness grew weaker, she finally fainted completely.
Kagami, peering intently from the window, watched Hinata Kito's every move until he picked up Karin and hid her in the closet. "Did you control your strength? What if you hurt her..." he said, before finishing his sentence.
Hyuga Kito coldly replied, "Then slap yourself."
"..."
A while later, on a small path by the roadside in Konoha, a space suddenly spun and twisted. Obito, still wearing his orange vortex mask and Akatsuki robe, walked out of the Kamui dimension and was standing on the branch of a tree next to him.
Ahead of him stood a red-haired brat, Karin, their target. Karin was sitting under a tree, using chakra to heal the injury on her arm.
In situations like this, Obito could simply approach quietly and touch Karin to silently pull her into the Kamui dimension without making a sound.
But at this critical moment, Obito seemed to be thinking about something, because he felt that something was wrong, and things seemed to be going too smoothly.
However, after activating his Sharingan and sensory abilities and carefully examining his surroundings, he still found nothing, except for that brat in front of him.
Finding himself somewhat timid due to the so-called Origin Void, Obito frowned slightly and snorted coldly. No matter who it was, once thrown into the Kamui Dimension, they could only be left to his disposal.
The entire operation went very smoothly. During the probing, Karin showed a look of fear at the right time and tried to use the Adamantine Sealing Technique she had just learned to resist. After seeing that iconic ninjutsu, Obito did not hesitate and directly sucked Karin into the Kamui dimension before leaving Konoha!
Karin, who had been captured, was sitting in the Kamui dimension, her hands tied behind her back by Obito, unable to move—at least from Karin's perspective.
Jing stood up and looked around. The sky was black, so there should be no light source. However, he could still see things around him. Under his feet were stone pillars of varying heights. The problem was that there were only these things in such a large space. If he stayed in this place for too long, he would get sick even if he wasn't already.
As for the Adamantine Lockdown, it was a ninjutsu that Kagami used to copy Karin's appearance and ninjutsu, and created an ice doll. She then hid inside the ice doll's body, intending to give Obito a surprise later. After all, no matter what Obito plans to do, there's no reason to guard against thieves every day.
On the way, Itachi silently observed Reikawa Uzumaki's expressions and movements while eating. It was different from Gen Uchiha's previous behavior, so it seemed that he might not be an Edo Tensei body...
However, just as he was about to look away, he saw Uzumaki Reikawa turn around speechlessly, holding a bucket of grilled skewers and handing it to him. "Take some if you want. Was it necessary to keep staring at me like that?"
"..."
Just as Itachi was considering whether to take a skewer, a black thing suddenly darted out from the side and snatched half of the skewer.
"Delicious! Delicious!..." Afei turned his back to the two of them, slightly lifted his mask, and quickly chewed the food, as if afraid that they would snatch it back.
The two people behind him could only see his cheeks moving as he chewed...
Zero River fell silent, put the remaining skewers on the ground, and charged directly at A Fei. At the same time, he fired the Vajra Lockdown from behind, suppressing A Fei's movement.
Ah Fei, who was eating, turned around slightly when he heard the noise, and was immediately startled by what he saw. He plopped down on the ground, dropping the skewer he hadn't finished eating. "Have mercy, sir!"
Seeing that Uzumaki Reikawa still had no intention of stopping, Tobi waved his sleeves frantically, not knowing where to run. As if he had thought of something, he suddenly buried his head in the ground and used Earth Release: Earth Dragon Concealment Technique! He burrowed into the ground!
"I have news..." Ah Fei popped out from behind and hurriedly spoke, but he was slapped back by the chains as soon as he came out.
"Karin..." (clap).
"Being patted by..."
"Gotcha..." The chains stopped, the attack finally retracted, and Uzumaki Reikawa went back to pick up the skewers again, only to find that one was missing...
Ah Fei emerged from the field, hid behind a tree, and cautiously peeked out. "The guy who was arresting people sent me to tell you this. I'm too weak to beat him, and he said he's only letting you pass."
"oh…"
"...You mean we should just ignore it?"
"lead the way."
