Chapter 217: Super Shinra Tensei? Nothing Special
Obito had been watching the situation on the field closely.
Seeing the Nine-Tails and Eight-Tails Jinchuriki—opponents he had struggled to capture for so long—defeated in seconds by that traitor, followed immediately by the extraction of their Tailed Beasts, he was struck with sheer terror.
In just a short time apart, this traitor's strength had increased again!
ever since the battle in Amegakure, every time he saw her, her power had grown. This time, it had skyrocketed by an unknown magnitude!!
To take down the two strongest Jinchuriki almost instantly... this strength was beyond human comprehension.
Could he... really defeat her this time?
Obito felt a premonition of doom. But no matter what, this was the final battle, his last chance.
He had to give it everything he had!
The purple light in his eyes intensified as he built up a terrifying aura. He stared ferociously at Konan across the field.
"I will make you feel my current power personally! Under the matchless might of the Rinnegan... you will be reduced to ash!!"
The gathered horrific power erupted violently as he roared:
"Super Shinra Tensei!!"
BOOM!
Infinite repulsive force exploded outward with Obito at the center.
The air was displaced, the ground pulverized. Like a natural disaster, it sought to destroy everything in its path. In an instant, it reached Konan.
Faced with this overwhelming, mountainous wall of repulsive force... Faced with the strongest technique of the Rinnegan used by Obito...
Konan remained expressionless, unmoved.
She simply extended her right hand toward Obito.
A pitch-black Truth-Seeking Ball floated out from her glowing green palm. The surface lit up with the green chakra exclusive to the Tenseigan. Spinning at extreme speed, it formed a green halo.
And then...
Whoosh!
A silver tornado shot out from the halo.
It expanded in the wind!
With unstoppable momentum, it crashed viciously into the incoming repulsive force.
—Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion!!
RUMBLE—!
A massive boom resonated across the entire battlefield.
The air at the center of the collision was instantly evacuated, creating a near-vacuum. The ground caved in nearly a hundred meters deep.
Surging power shot straight into the clouds, scattering all the dark clouds in the sky.
"What is happening over there??"
On a distant battlefield, Shikamaru and the other ninjas instinctively looked toward the direction of the loud noise.
The commotion was intense, even more terrifying than the Ten-Tails in front of them. It was a shocking explosion that pierced the heavens. They could feel the ground shaking as if an earthquake had hit.
It was louder than the movements or attacks of the Ten-Tails.
"Shikamaru!" His father Shikaku's voice echoed in his mind. "Don't be distracted by other battlefields! Leave that to Naruto and Kakashi. What you should do now is join the First Division and deal with the Ten-Tails with everything you've got!"
"Understood, Dad." Shikamaru withdrew his gaze and looked at the Ten-Tails trapped in the crater. "No matter what is happening over there, I believe Naruto will find a way to handle it and lead us to victory!"
"Ino! Choji!!" He looked at his two teammates. "Prepare the Ino-Shika-Cho formation!!"
"Oh! Leave it to me, Shikamaru!!"
"Let's do this! I can't lose to Sakura!!"
Back at HQ, Shikaku ended the transmission.
He looked at the giant sensory sphere floating in the center of the room. Two points were erupting with massive ripples, spreading outward like waves.
One represented the battlefield of the Five Kage and Madara Uchiha.
The other was the battlefield that had just appeared, representing Naruto, Kakashi, and the Masked Man.
What shocked and worried Shikaku was that the power fluctuations there were even more intense than Madara Uchiha's!
He couldn't even sense the specific situation of that battlefield anymore. The chakra of Naruto, Killer B, and Kakashi had vanished from his senses, as if they were being jammed.
They disappeared in an instant.
With their strength, it was impossible for them to die so quickly. It was highly likely that some sudden mutation caused the sensory ninjutsu to fail.
"What on earth is happening over there??" Shikaku was filled with anxiety.
Could such power really be unleashed by humans?
The massive roar on the battlefield didn't last long. In fact, it was extremely brief.
The silver tornado crushed the incoming repulsive force with the momentum of rotting wood breaking. It rushed straight for Obito Uchiha at the center.
When Toneri Otsutsuki used this move at full power, it could pierce through the moon.
Even if Konan wasn't using her full strength, it wasn't something the Rinnegan's Super Shinra Tensei could stop.
It was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot!
"No!!" Obito's eyes nearly split open, his pupils dilating to the extreme. "Impossible!!!"
"How can you withstand my Super Shinra Tensei!!!"
Disbelief. He couldn't believe, dared not believe, what was unfolding before his eyes. He even suspected he was hallucinating or trapped in a Genjutsu.
What was he seeing?!
The terrifying repulsive force of his Super Shinra Tensei was actually being pushed back by the opponent with thunderous momentum!!
The repulsive force was compressed by that seemingly unstoppable silver tornado until it became extremely dense, visible to the naked eye!
He was surrounded by a translucent white halo. This halo was the repulsive force of the Super Shinra Tensei exploding outward!
But right now...
The white halo was visibly shrinking under the pressure!!
Not only could it not expand, but it was being pushed back!!
"No!! Impossible!! I don't believe it!! I won't lose to you again!!"
"Haaah!!"
Obito roared, his expression becoming hideous and twisted. Blood began to spray from every pore on his body.
He squeezed out everything he had, feeding more chakra and life force into the Rinnegan to unleash greater power.
However... it was utterly futile.
No matter how much power he erupted with, it was just a death struggle.
The white halo around his body shrank rapidly.
This cruel scene gradually filled his heart with despair.
Obito could accept Konan dodging or using other means to survive his Super Shinra Tensei. But he absolutely could not accept her suppressing his strongest move with sheer brute force in such a domineering manner.
He knew clearly what this represented.
After her power skyrocketed again, this traitor had broken through the ceiling of his imagination.
He... had absolutely no hope of victory...
Extreme unwillingness and extreme resentment caused Obito to scream hysterically, "Why!!"
"Why did you have to appear!!! Why couldn't I just kill you back in Amegakure!!"
"Why do you keep interfering with my plans!!!"
He looked deranged, as if the cold, despairing reality had stripped him of his sanity.
"I just want to realize the Eye of the Moon Plan!!! I just want to resurrect Rin! Why can't you just die properly!!!"
The white halo around his body vanished. The power of the Rinnegan dissipated.
His Super Shinra Tensei was ruthlessly crushed by the Silver Wheel Reincarnation Explosion.
The massive silver tornado suddenly faded away.
Konan's figure instantly appeared in front of Obito Uchiha.
With lightning speed, she grabbed him by the throat and lifted him off the ground.
Her tone was icy. "You still have one last bit of value..."
In the palm of her other hand, a green Mental Sphere emerged.
