Naruto watched as Obito once again used the same move to resolve his attack. As someone who always relied only on Rasengan and Shadow Clones, even he couldn't help but want to complain, could Old Obito use a different trick?
After all, even though all his attacks were called Rasengan, they also had various forms.
For example, right now, after Obito dealt with the Naruto shadow clones that filled the sky, there were still eight clones that hadn't moved. Instead, they stood in all directions, taking their positions.
They simultaneously raised their hands.
Naruto's main body had already realized that Obito, in terms of pure power, was no longer stronger than him.
However, Obito could apply his mental willpower to reality, and drag real-world power into the spiritual level, erasing it from the mental realm.
Such an Obito could no longer be defeated by brute force. To beat him, one had to shake his will, to make his will no longer so unbreakable.
Yet, even Naruto, whose will was famously steadfast, felt that Obito's current resolve had reached a level he himself couldn't comprehend, how could it be shaken so easily?
So, Naruto thought of working on the Ten-Tails within Obito.
The Ten-Tails was the fusion of the nine tailed beasts, and just now, he had resonated with the nine tailed beasts and seized some power from within Obito.
Naruto thought, he could try again, use the power of the nine tailed beasts to influence the Ten-Tails, and thereby begin to affect Obito's will from the inside.
Thus, he and his eight clones simultaneously began to form Rasengan.
Immediately, in the hands of the nine Narutos, nine orbs condensed with chakra from different tailed beasts gradually took shape.
This was not only Naruto's technique to shake the Ten-Tails, it was also his strongest physical-level attack method.
In an instant, Obito felt himself being locked onto by the nine Narutos in the sky, and a terrifying pressure began to spread out. Now, let alone moving, even breathing had become extremely difficult.
The next moment, the nine Narutos had already thrown the orbs in their hands, while chanting simultaneously, "Sage Art: Super Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken!"
The power of this move had already surpassed the limits Obito could physically respond to. Under the locked-on aura, he couldn't even dodge.
At this moment, techniques like Bansho Ten'in, Shinra Tensei, or ordinary-level Chibaku Tensei were all just jokes.
The only thing Obito could trust and rely on was the Sword of Nunoboko in his hand.
Or rather, the Sword of Nunoboko had always been just a transformation of the Truth-Seeking Ball. What was truly invincible had never been any kind of weapon, but the conviction imbued in the weapon.
Facing the nine world-ending orbs, Obito held up his sword of will, and behind him, a vague figure of Rin seemed to form.
He said calmly, "Explode, shatter, banish this world!"
Immediately, an immensely strong force erupted from the Sword of Nunoboko, as if it was going to shatter the entire world.
This power fiercely collided with another, Naruto's ultimate move cast with the power of the nine tailed beasts, the equally invincible Super Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken.
Again, there was no explosion. Again, only annihilation. But unlike before, under this clash that even surpassed the world's capacity to withstand, everything seemed to be drawn into a spiritual world…
Uchiha Sasuke and Young Obito, Hashirama and Madara, as well as Minato, the increasingly irrelevant Second Hokage Tobirama Senju, and the purely filler role Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, all were affected.
A blinding flash appeared in all their eyes at once, almost blinding them. Then, when they opened their eyes again, they found themselves in a space filled with illusory colors…
———
Sasuke and Young Obito stopped fighting simultaneously.
To speak truthfully, because one was too fast and the other had overly sneaky abilities, they'd been punching air, and the more they fought the less interesting it became, so they didn't want to fight anymore.
Sasuke frowned as he looked at the dreamlike scenery around him and asked, "Where… is this?"
Young Obito, however, had a strong sense of deja vu about this place. It was very similar to the spiritual world from his past life, where, after the Ten-Tails had been pulled out of him and the entire nation had done a tug-of-war, Naruto had convinced him.
He said flatly, "Looks like something incredible happened in the battle between Naruto and the other Obito, and we got swept in as well."
"In any case, this isn't the real world. It's a consciousness realm tied to reality."
Sasuke's brow furrowed deeper. At this point, he noticed that it wasn't just he and Young Obito who had arrived here, many people had.
Aside from some predictable characters, even many who should've been trapped in Infinite Tsukuyomi's sleep had come here too.
Not far away, the two culprits of all this, Naruto and Old Obito, also regained their awareness.
Now, they faced each other again.
Obito felt his body, and due to the influence of Naruto's Tailed Beast Rasenshuriken just now, it had become very unstable. The Ten-Tails within him seemed ready to break out again. He said calmly, "So this was your plan?"
Naruto said, "Wasn't this also your plan?"
Obito fell silent. Naruto's last move couldn't be stopped. He could only shatter reality and drag the attack into the spiritual realm.
Unexpectedly, even so, the Ten-Tails inside him was still affected by Naruto's nine tailed beasts' chakra.
Obito sneered coldly, "Thinking reality can't deal with me, and that you'll win the final victory in the spiritual world instead?"
"Naruto, do you really think you can pull it off?"
But Naruto showed a confident expression, sensing the Ten-Tails inside Obito beginning to break away, "Look, even the nine tailed beasts don't acknowledge you. That's the reason for my victory."
"Because…"
Behind Naruto, those who had been drawn into the spiritual realm, members of the Allied Shinobi Forces, began to appear one by one. In no time, they were packed in dense clusters.
In contrast, behind Obito, it still looked empty and silent.
Naruto's eyes shone with a burst of light, "I've always represented the thoughts of many people, haven't I?"
Naruto once again extended a hand toward Obito, "So, come on, join everyone. Uncle Obito, I've said it before. Even in reality, we can create something beautiful. We don't need illusions to realize it."
At this moment, Young Obito had unknowingly come to stand beside Old Obito.
Looking at this uncannily familiar scene, Young Obito even felt that Naruto's voice was full of temptation.
The spiritual world is different from the real world. Here, human willpower can become a tangible force. Numbers are no longer something that can be ignored, they can stack, and become meaningful.
In his previous life, it was precisely in this spiritual world, feeling the emptiness behind him and the liveliness around Naruto, that led to his shaken will and eventual defeat.
So in this life, facing the same scene again, would the outcome be different?
