Naruto: Uchiha's Unserious Saga-Chapter 318: Ten-Tails Returns!
Chapter 318 - 318: Ten-Tails Returns!
"I still have one last move!" Obito slowly formed a seal and said lightly, "Uchiha Funan, if you can handle this, then I truly have nothing left."
"Oh?" Funan's interest was piqued.
Was there something he hadn't accounted for?
[Bang!]
A massive figure appeared before everyone, shrouded in thick smoke.
Upon seeing it, Funan was momentarily startled before bursting into laughter.
"Obito, what's going on? Why is it him again? Didn't I teach him a lesson last time?"
What had appeared before Funan was none other than the Ten-Tails Shell!
The traces of the beating Funan had given it last time seemed to have not diminished.
In the darkness, Uchiha Madara looked the Ten-Tails up and down, then chuckled softly. "So that's how it is!"
Obito stared at Funan and said, "This time, it's different, Uchiha Funan. This is the real Ten-Tails!"
"Hmm?" Funan was taken aback. He carefully examined the Ten-Tails' body and quickly realized that its power was indeed far greater than before.
"What's going on?"
Funan murmured, "All the tailed beasts are in my hands. How could you...?"
"The tailed beasts are indeed in your possession," Obito replied. "But don't forget—some people also carry the power of the tailed beasts!"
Obito's voice echoed through the battlefield.
Funan suddenly understood.
The Jinchūriki of past generations!
Orochimaru!
Funan's expression darkened.
The power contained within the Ten-Tails was beyond imagination. There was no doubt—it must have devoured a significant number of former Jinchūriki.
And the only person capable of resurrecting those Jinchūriki was Orochimaru!
"Once again, you've caused me trouble!"
A flicker of murderous intent flashed through Funan's eyes.
He had once wanted to acquire Orochimaru's knowledge, hoping the man could help him become stronger.
But!
Not only had Orochimaru rejected him multiple times, but he had also become a constant source of trouble.
Even if some of these troubles were inevitable, that didn't make it any less frustrating!
If the opportunity arose, Orochimaru needed to disappear!
With Tobirama, there was already someone who could replace Orochimaru.
Funan made up his mind.
Hidden in the darkness, Orochimaru suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
He instinctively suppressed his presence even further.
He knew that someone was targeting him.
And whoever it was, it wouldn't be good news.
"Roar!"
The Ten-Tails let out a monstrous roar. Its form had begun to change—its body losing structure, becoming unnaturally soft and fluid.
But!
Its power was increasing at an exponential rate.
A flicker of solemnity flashed in Funan's eyes.
"Damn!"
How many generations of Jinchūriki had this thing absorbed?
At the very least, their chakra was incredibly strong. Then again, the Impure World Reincarnation technique itself was already an absurdity.
"Roar!"
The Ten-Tails roared at Funan.
"Tsk, tsk!" Funan scoffed in disdain.
"Uchiha Funan, show me what you've got!"
Obito smirked maliciously.
"Otherwise, your shinobi coalition will be wiped out."
"Roar!"
As soon as Obito spoke, the Ten-Tails seemed to receive an order. It let out a deafening roar, and a massive Tailed Beast Ball began forming in its mouth.
Then—
It fired directly at the Konoha shinobi coalition!
"Damn!"
Funan roared in fury.
[Swish!]
A figure flashed by.
Then, countless runes appeared in the air, blocking the Tailed Beast Ball.
As the runes tightened, the Tailed Beast Ball was slowly absorbed.
"Yako..."
Funan instantly knew who had done it.
It was clearly a sealing technique.
In all of Konoha—no, perhaps in the entire shinobi world—only Uzumaki Yako could pull this off.
"Someone from the Uzumaki clan..."
Namikaze Minato, who was suppressing Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other two, turned back, a complex expression in his eyes.
"Roar!"
The first attack had failed, and the Ten-Tails seemed annoyed. Letting out a furious roar, it opened its mouth again.
"Shut up!"
Funan snorted coldly and appeared before the Ten-Tails in a flash.
[Bang!]
Susanoo materialized instantly, throwing a powerful punch into the Ten-Tails' mouth, smashing its head into the ground.
"Don't be so arrogant!"
"Roar!"
The Ten-Tails roared in anger and lunged at Funan.
Without hesitation, Funan drove Susanoo forward to engage it.
"You actually thought of this, huh? Obito, this kid is quite creative!" Uchiha Madara's eyes lit up as he murmured, "If the Ten-Tails absorbs the chakra of other tailed beasts, its power will definitely grow stronger. And I—after becoming its Jinchūriki—will be even more powerful."
He stared intently at the Ten-Tails, eager to act.
He didn't want to wait any longer.
He wanted to be resurrected, become the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki, and activate the Moon Eye Plan.
Hmm?
As he was deep in thought, a familiar presence approached.
Uchiha Madara looked up.
Senju Hashirama!
Ever since the war had begun, Hashirama had been searching for Madara.
Everyone had their own assigned tasks, and his was to hold Madara back—to keep him from interfering in the battle.
They all knew that if Uchiha Madara enters the battlefield, it would bring unpredictable chaos.
Moreover, since Hashirama's strength had not yet fully recovered to its peak, all he could do was keep Madara occupied.
"Roar!"
The Ten-Tails roared as it clashed with Uchiha Funan.
There was no denying it—the Ten-Tails had indeed become much stronger.
Barely moments into their battle, Funan had already noticed something unusual.
Its power had exceeded that of a Kage.
After exchanging a few blows, Funan realized that their strength was actually somewhat evenly matched.
'So this is the limit of dojutsu!' Funan thought to himself. 'The Eternal Mangekyō hasn't evolved into the Rinnegan. Should I use the power of the nine-tailed beast in my body?'
Funan hesitated.
Using it now would undoubtedly expose too much.
But!
If he didn't use it, taking down the Ten-Tails wouldn't be an easy feat.
A single misstep, and he could be eliminated.
[Swoosh!]
At that moment, a figure suddenly appeared beside the Ten-Tails.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of explosive tags were plastered onto the Ten-Tails' body.
[Boom! Boom! Boom!] freewebnoveℓ.com
A series of violent explosions erupted, causing the Ten-Tails to roar in agony.
"Namikaze Minato?" Funan was stunned.
Wasn't he supposed to be fighting Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others?
"Hokage-sama, please hold on a little longer!"
Namikaze Minato's voice rang out.
"As soon as I finish dealing with Sarutobi Hiruzen and the others, I'll come to assist you!"
Funan subconsciously nodded. "Alright!"
Wait a minute!!!
Is Minato helping me?
Even if Sarutobi Hiruzen and the other three had grown weaker with age, they were still at Kage level.
Minato could handle them alone—and still have the strength to provide backup?
Was this guy that strong?
Funan was momentarily dumbfounded.
"Alright then, let's fight first!" Funan locked eyes with the Ten-Tails and murmured, "As long as we hold out a little longer, reinforcements will arrive."
"I almost forgot!"
Funan smirked playfully as he gazed at the Ten-Tails.
"Besides being a powerful shinobi... I am also the Hokage!"
[Bang!]
The Ten-Tails and Funan collided again.
This time, Funan was no longer aggressive but chose a 'soft' approach.
He removed most of the Ten-Tails' power.
"Hmm?"
Obito's eyes sharpened.
Uchiha Funan's fighting style had changed.
Why?
The Ten-Tails threw another punch, then swept its tails over.
[Bang!]
[Boom!]
Funan first counterattacked with a punch, but the immense force sent him retreating continuously. Then, while retreating, he reached out and stopped the Ten-Tails' tail.
[Swish!]
He retreated further, using the momentum.
Funan stared at the Ten-Tails from a distance, a smile on his face.
"What's going on?" Obito frowned and murmured, "Is he avoiding the fight? Has he exhausted his strength? Impossible!"
After many battles, Obito deeply understood how vast the chakra within Uchiha Funan's body was.
Draining it completely would take hours of intense combat.
Unless Uchiha Funan continuously used large-scale jutsu.
However, this was just an exchange of blows, and it was impossible for the opponent to have consumed even 10% of his strength.
[Bang! Bang!]
A few more clashes.
Each time, Funan lured his opponent into attacking, only to evade at the last moment.
"Why?"
Obito grew even more puzzled.
He glanced at Minato.
Sensei!
His teacher's resurrection had been a great shock to him.
Why did you have to appear now!?
Back then, if you hadn't arrived late, you could have saved Rin.
Obito's eyes turned cold.
He suppressed his emotions toward Minato.
Minato had not died directly at his hands, but indirectly.
And his sensei's wife...
That was why Obito did not approach Minato.
What could he say if he met him?
Blame him? Haha!
Guilt? Even more impossible!
However, Uchiha Funan's change had undoubtedly been caused by Minato's support earlier.
Had Minato said something to Uchiha Funan?
"Damn it, what are you doing? Hurry up! Why are you standing there in a daze?"
An angry shout rang in Obito's ears.
Obito turned his head and saw that many of Orochimaru's Impure World Reincarnation troops had been sealed.
Orochimaru was clearly growing anxious.
On the other side, Hiruko's expression was also grim.
Kisame and Deidara were still fighting.
Kisame's opponent was Terumi Mei!
Deidara's situation was even worse!
A large number of lightning-attribute shinobi were relentlessly pursuing him, beating him mercilessly.
Although Deidara could fly, he was still being chased down, jumping up and down in desperation, nearly doubting his own existence.
