Madara stared at Obito without changing his expression. "You're too hasty," Madara said, his tone remaining cold. "It's still too early to thank me."
Obito tightened his grip. "I don't know if I'll come back here again or not. But at least, I want to say thank you," Obito said, then prepared to leave.
Madara, who had been sitting on a bench beneath the Gedo Mazo statue, looked at Obito with a deep gaze before speaking again, "You... will come back here. And at that time, you will truly understand the meaning of your gratitude towards me."
Obito glanced briefly at Madara but chose not to respond further.
At that moment, Obito turned towards the white creature clinging to the wall.
"Hey, you! White creature! Where are Rin and Kakashi? Show me the way!" Obito's voice was filled with urgency.
The white creature looked at Obito for a moment before responding casually. "The one wrapped around you is my clone. Depending on how far apart we are, we can still communicate through telepathy. Besides, I have many other clones scattered in various places. We keep exchanging information."
Suddenly, another voice interrupted with a cheerier tone.
"I'll guide you based on the information we have!"
Obito was slightly taken aback. "This voice... Is it the Spiral?" Obito murmured, recognizing the distinctive tone of the creature that enveloped him.
However, Obito didn't waste any more time. With burning determination, Obito said, "Then please guide me!"
Without hesitation, Obito jumped through the hole where the stone that had previously blocked his path was now shattered.
As Obito finally managed to get out, his gaze immediately fell on several objects neatly arranged on the wall in that place.
Without much thought, Obito simply grabbed a black cloak hanging nearby. Then, without hesitation, Obito quickly left the underground cave. Once outside, he was greeted by a vast area within a giant gaping hole.
"Tell me about Rin and Kakashi!" Obito immediately said, his voice sounding urgent to the spiral creature that now enveloped his entire body.
The spiral creature seemed to think for a moment before answering, "According to the information I received, they are in big trouble... It seems there is something related to experimental rabbits from the Land of Mist...? I don't quite understand," said the spiral creature in a confused tone.
Obito stared sharply, then asked again, "So? What is actually happening to them?"
The spiral creature thought for a moment before responding, "They are being chased by many enemies. From their appearance, it seems the pursuers are elite ninjas... or maybe Jonin."
Obito didn't wait any longer. With all his strength, Obito immediately jumped and climbed the walls of the hole to reach the surface. Once he got to the top, without wasting any time, Obito rushed through the forest at a quick pace.
"What is Master Minato doing?" Obito asked, his face showing deepening confusion.
The spiral creature was silent for a moment before answering, "Who?" the spiral creature asked, seeming not to understand Obito's meaning.
Obito sighed, then said more firmly, "I mean, the Yellow Flash... What is that man doing right now?"
"Hmm... It seems that man is busy with another mission," replied the spiral creature, still in a confused tone.
Obito clenched his fist. "At a time like this..." Obito murmured with a worried expression.
At that moment, Obito's eyes slowly began to change. The two Tomoe Sharingan spun in Obito's eyes, reflecting the burning determination within him.
"Kakashi...! You promised! Please... Protect Rin!" Obito murmured to himself, as his steps quickened. "I will come as fast as I can!"
