Chapter 602: Ten Tail’s clone
Boom
A vortex of chakra explodes from Obito's back.
"W-what's going on?"
Naruto and Sasuke regain their footing and glance in Obito's direction. Tsunade, Jiraiya, Minato, Itachi, and Mei also pause their assault to observe Obito. Even the Edo Tobirama, Mito, and Hiruzen carefully glance at Obito, ready for any unexpected move.
Shiing
Itachi observes Obito with his Mangekyo Sharingan.
"For some unknown reason, his chakra is flowing in reverse. Due to this, he is suffering from a chakra disorder. The immense amount of chakra in his body is rampaging and attempting to break free."
"What just happened to him? Did Naruto and Sasuke's attack do it?" Obito's current state confuses the group.
"I am not sure." Even Minato is clueless about Obito's current state.
"It's a powerful curse technique!"
Fwoosh
Suddenly, Kushina teleports in front of the group.
"Kushina!"
Minato and others exclaim in surprise.
"Kushina, why are you here?" Tsunade questions her.
"I was monitoring the situation of the battlefield from the backline and maintaining the barrier. Since the barrier already served its purpose, there is no need for me to sit back and watch. So, I am here. Anyway, that's not the important issue."
Kushina turns her attention to Obito. Others also follow her gaze.
"Kushina, earlier you said it's a curse technique. Do you know something?"
Hmm
After listening to Kushina's words, Mito also scrutinizes Obito.
"Yes, Kushina is right!" Mito also exclaims in surprise.
"Take a careful look at the faint black curse marking around Obito's face." The group glances at Obito and notices the faint curse runes flickering around Obito's head.
"Damn it!" Obito clenches his fists in agony.
"I fell for Madara's trap. By destroying my heart, I thought I got rid of his curse mark, but I didn't expect him to plant another curse seal in my brain. He planned everything well!"
Bleugh
Obito spews out another mouthful of blood.
Hehe
Suddenly, a creepy laughter echoes in Obito's ears.
"Obito, my dear Obito! Did you really think you can fool Madara?"
A black and white figure slowly seeps out of the ground.
"Zetsu!"
Obito recognizes the voice and slowly turns his head in its direction.
"That's Zetsu!"
Minato and others also recognize Zetsu.
"What's he doing there?" Jiraiya's expression turns ugly.
Hmm
Mito and Tobirama also frown upon observing Zetsu.
"I can sense big brother's chakra from his body. Who is he?" Tobirama asks.
"He is Zetsu, a creation of Madara using the Divine Tree and Lord Hashirama's cells," Minato answers him.
"A product of Hashirama's cells!" Mito observes Zetsu's chakra.
"He seems weak. But his life force is peculiar." Tobirama also senses Zetsu's life force and chakra.
"Hehe Obito look at you now." White Zetsu's raspy voice echoes in Obito's ears as the latter mocks him.
Black tendrils rise from Zetsu's body and envelop Obito. Obito attempts to struggle from the curse marks and escape Black Zetsu's corruption.
Thump
Another pulse of chaotic chakra overloads his body. Madara's curse seals affect Obito's mind and senses. As a result of this interference, the ten-tail's will, which was previously suppressed by Obito using his willpower, surfaces.
The Ten-tail frantically attempts to free itself from Obito's control and fights for its freedom. three partite struggles occur in Obito's mind: ten-tail's frantic struggle, Madara's curse, and Black Zetsu's invasion.
Under such immense pressure, Obito's mind couldn't handle the intense stress and finally collapsed.
ROOAR
Several giant wooden spikes erupt from Obito's back.
Shoom
The wooden spikes continuously grow out of Obito's body and finally morph into ten-tails.
"It's the Ten-tail"
The expression of the shinobis on the battlefield turns ugly.
ROOOAR
The ten-tail releases a powerful roar and frantically lashes at the nearby shinobis.
Tsunade, Jiraiya, Mei, Minato, and others dodge the tail lashes of the Ten-Tails and glance at it from a distance.
"The Ten tail is free again and this time it looks pissed," Naruto remarks as he witnesses the rampage.
The Ten-tail charges up a massive-tailed beast bomb within seconds and targets it towards the Allied shinobi force.
"This is bad!"
Swoosh
Minato flickers in front of the tailed beast bomb.
Fwoosh
Before the tailed beast bomb could explode, he teleports it to one of his Hirashin marks in the ocean.
BOOM
A massive pillar of explosive energy rises in the distance, sending tremors and waves across the battlefield.
"We have to bind ten-tail before it could recover and wreak more havoc!" Kushina remarks with a heavy face.
Even as the group communicates the ten-tail is rapidly recovering itself by absorbing the nature energy from the entire shinobi world.
Swish swish
Both Mito and Kushina step forward and make a series of hand signs.
"Adamantine Sealing chains,"
They clap their hand together, and multiple massive adamantine chains erupt from their back. The massive chains snake around on the battlefield and wrap around the ten-tail. Mito's chains bind the ten-tail's main body and pin its massive body on the ground. While Kushina's chains bind the several tails of the Ten-tail and pin them to the ground.
ROOOAR
The ten-tail releases another powerful roar and frantically struggles to escape. Kushina and Mito can barely hold it back.
"They can't hold it back for much longer. We have to seek a method to seal the Ten-tail." Minato comments.
At some distance from the battlefield,
Hashirama is sitting beside a sealed Madara, silently gazing at the battle between the shinobis and Obito.
"Madara, my dear old friend, even though we had several things in common. Why would you choose a path with no return? Madara, what are you planning?" He questions Madara with a serious expression.
Madara raises his head with a glint in his eyes.
"Hashirama, our paths were never meant to be the same. It's a shame we had to cross paths and settle our differences. Yet, here we are; decades after our death, still arguing about that matter. And my answer is still the same: Hashirama, this rotten world needs salvation and I will be that salvation."
Sigh
Hashirama sighs and shakes his head, disagreeing with the twisted views of his old friend.
Suddenly, a change occurs in front of them.
"This is" Hashirama's expression turns ugly as he notices the changes in Obito's body.
"The Ten-tail is about to break free!"
He stands up with a serious expression. And sure enough, the ten-tails break free from Obito's body and wreak havoc in its surroundings.
Mito and Kushina restrain it, but under the frantic struggle of the Ten-tail, they are barely able to hold things.
"Looks like I have to step in!"
Madara turns towards Hashirama and points a finger at him.
"Stay here like a good man!" He further reinforces the seal with a few more Torri gates and flickers towards the Ten-tail.
"The Ten-tail it possesses the same power as me. The destructive power of the wood release and the regenerative power of the Life release."
Swoosh
He flickers beside Tobirama, Minato, Jiraiya, Tsunade, and others and glances at the Ten-tail's humongous body.
"Now that I had a close look, this ten-tail is more massive than it looks from a distance."
"Grandpa!" Tsunade mumbles.
Haha
Hashirama turns to Tsunade and laughs.
"My little Tsuna, who used to wet her pants as a child and spend her pocket money on gambling, has now grown to such an extent."
"GRANDPA!"
Bonk
Tsunade smacks Hashirama's head with her iron fists. A bump appears on Hashirama's pitiful head with some tears in his eyes.
"Be a little more serious!"
"Alright alright!"
Hashirama turns serious and takes a step forward.
HAAH
He claps his hands. Black marking covers his face as he enters into the Senjutsu mode.
"Sage art: Gracious Deity Gates,"
Hashirama makes a Ram hand sea.
Bang bang bang
Several massive wooden Tori gates fall from the sky and pin Ten-tail's entire body to the ground, together with Mito and Kushina's chains.
"I will add more gates, to be sure!"
Bang bang
Almost a hundred Tori gates seal and restrict every movement of the Ten-tail. The ten-tail senses the danger and opens its mouth to charge a tailed beast bomb.
BANG
Another massive Tori gate seals its mouth, dispersing the surrounding chakra.
"It's done! It won't be able to move easily and create trouble now"
Hashirama heaves a sigh of relief.
Before Hashirama could complete his sentence, the massive flower core on ten-tails back undergoes some changes.
It suddenly snaps open and several wooden creature crawls out of the Ten-tail's back.
"Umm this"
Hashirama's face turns red and he claps his hand and drops another massive Tori gate spanning the distance of the Ten-tail's massive gate on its back.
Rumble rumble
The fall of the gate generates massive shockwaves that sweep several small wooden creatures. Nonetheless, these small wooden creatures regenerate and charge towards the shinobis.
"Are these Ten-tail's children?"
Mei glances at the several wooden monsters with a similar appearance to the Ten-tail.
"Their chakra or the feel of their signature is the same as the Ten-tail." Tsunade shakes her head.
"So, they are more like Ten-tail's clones, rather than its children. Looks like this is the next evolution of the Ten-tail. Its massive body is a disadvantage to it, so it splits it into several smaller bodies to manoeuvrer easily."
Minato gets serious, ready to battle.
"Be careful, some of these wooden creatures with massive sizes are almost on par with the Tailed beasts."
