—————————————————————————————————————————

From an unknown swirling vortex, a masked man appeared before the Kumogakure shinobi.

Mabui: What was that just now?

Darui: It's a space-time ninjutsu. Does Akatsuki have someone like this?

Under the eerie night sky, a pitch-black vortex gave way to a dark and mysterious figure. The masked man's cold, emotionless eyes radiated an enigmatic aura. A fierce gust of wind swept through the forest. Killer B of the Eight-Tails was about to face a super challenge. Showtime!

Killer B danced and rapped without a care in the world, showing no sense of danger:

"Darkness swirls~ Mysterious man unfurls~ Eight-Tails Killer B~ Ready for the thrill, ya see~ Showtime~ Yo~!"

Darui, ever cautious, thought to himself: The boss just left, and Akatsuki shows up immediately. Could it be that attacking the village was just a diversion to lure him away? If so, this is bad.

He made a quick decision: Protect Lord B!

"Yes!" The accompanying Kumogakure ANBU immediately formed a defensive formation around Killer B.

Behind the mask, Obito's Sharingan spun as he analyzed the situation: Darui, an elite jonin of Kumogakure, the right-hand man of the Raikage, and the most likely candidate for the next Raikage.

Darui, fully alert, responded, "You flatter me. I'm just slightly ahead of my peers. I've heard Akatsuki operates in pairs. Are you sure you're okay alone? Our boss is already on his way back. Your partner causing chaos in the village is likely done for."

Behind the mask, Obito was momentarily puzzled.

"No need for chatter! Akatsuki scum, let's finish this!"

A hot-headed, blond-haired youth with the kanji for "heat" tattooed on his shoulder grabbed his ninja blade and charged forward.

Darui shouted, "Atsui! Don't act recklessly! We don't know the enemy's abilities yet!"

But Atsui, driven by adrenaline, ignored him.

Flames ignited along his blade as he charged. "Kumogakure's Fiery Slash!"

Obito stood motionless, making no defensive moves.

"Huh, frozen in fear? Akatsuki isn't all that!" Atsui smirked, swinging his flaming blade with full force.

The blade sliced through… nothing. There was no resistance, no sensation of cutting through flesh.

"What?!" Atsui was stunned as his entire body passed through Obito.

"Reckless or cautious, the outcome remains the same. The only difference is the order in which you die," came Obito's cold voice from behind the mask.

Obito turned and reached for Atsui's shoulder.

A swirling vortex erupted from his right eye, instantly engulfing Atsui.

Snap! The vortex closed, and Obito twisted his neck slightly.

In just one move, Atsui, the inheritor of the "heat" tattoo, vanished without a trace.

The Kumogakure shinobi were left speechless.

Darui demanded, "Where did he go?!"

Obito turned back indifferently. "Another dimension. Don't worry, you'll join him soon enough."

Darui clenched his fists in regret: How am I supposed to face Samui? Atsui was her younger brother.

"Now, it's my turn."

Obito charged forward!

"Storm Release: Laser Circus!"

Darui formed hand seals, combining Water and Lightning Releases into a laser-like barrage, creating a web of firepower.

But every attack missed its mark.

Obito phased through the ANBU's defensive formation, one after another, until he reached Killer B, extending his hand toward him.

"Not everyone is Minato. Once this hand grabs you, it's over."

"Lightning Release: Black Panther!"

A black lightning panther descended from above!

Obito's eyes flickered as his hand passed through Killer B's face.

Boom! The lightning panther exploded on Killer B, creating an electrified zone that no one could approach.

At the center of the lightning zone, Killer B twitched violently:

"Electric baptism~ Ally's intervention~ Legs paralyzed~ Early retirement~ Lowlight moment~ Eight-Tails Killer B~ Constipation feel~ Fool ya fool~!"

Outside the lightning zone, Obito's gaze shifted to Darui. "The Third Raikage's unique black lightning. Compared to ordinary Lightning Release, it has a stronger paralyzing effect. You, the inheritor of Kumogakure's 'lightning' tattoo, are the only one capable of using it."

Darui replied, "Even if your body can phase, the moment you attack, you must materialize. If we can catch that moment, we can stop you. I won't let you get near Lord B so easily!"

Obito smirked. "Oh? You're quick to catch on."

Darui's expression darkened. "But that also means, as long as he doesn't attack, we can't do anything to him. Timing his attacks is easier said than done. One mistake, and it's all over."

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Ninja blades, kunai, shuriken, explosive tags, and a flurry of ninjutsu bombarded Obito.

But all attacks were rendered useless by Kamui's intangibility.

Obito phased through one ANBU's blade and reached for them.

"He's materializing! Now's the time!" Another ANBU struck, but their blade passed through Obito and pierced their comrade's chest instead.

"What?! He deliberately pretended to attack to exploit his weakness and trick me into killing my ally!"

"Arghhh!"

Snap! Obito broke the ANBU's neck from behind.

Darui grew increasingly alarmed: The safest option is to evacuate Lord B. As long as he and the Eight-Tails don't fall into Akatsuki's hands, our lives are insignificant.

Making his decision, he commanded, "Mabui! Use Heavenly Transfer Technique to send Lord B away!"

Mabui hesitated. "But!"

Darui insisted, "I understand the risks. But as long as Lord B enters Version 2 state, the high-density Tailed Beast cloak will prevent his body from being torn apart by light-speed teleportation. He'll be gravely injured, but he'll survive!"

Mabui protested, "Is it necessary? Together with Lord B, we can—"

"It's not that simple! Look at him! He hasn't even gotten serious yet! Akatsuki has failed twice to capture Lord B. This time, they've gone to great lengths, even attacking the village to lure the boss away. They're determined to succeed!"

Seeing Mabui's hesitation, Darui shouted, "Hurry! The Black Panther's lightning zone is fading!"

"I understand!" Mabui began preparing the Heavenly Transfer Technique.

"You won't succeed." Obito's cold gaze shifted toward Mabui.

A sharp wooden spike shot from his sleeve, piercing Mabui's chest.

With a cruel hand seal, wooden spikes erupted from her body.

Mabui collapsed into a pool of blood.

Darui's pupils contracted. "Wood Release?!"

"Correct. But the only reward for answering is death."

A vortex appeared mid-air as Obito unleashed a rain of wooden spikes.

"Wood Release: Cutting Technique!"

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Desperate screams echoed through the forest.

In the blood-soaked chaos, Darui roared, "Lord B, run!"

"Fool ya fool! Eight-Tails Killer B is gonna sting like a bee!" Killer B's sunglasses reflected his rage as his rap turned into a roar.

Boom! Boom!

His body and chakra expanded as he transformed into the Eight-Tails.

Tailed Beast Transformation!

Obito's eyes gleamed. "Oh? Finally."

A terrifying black chakra sphere compressed in the Eight-Tails' mouth before being unleashed.

Tailed Beast Bomb!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

"Whether it's a Tailed Beast Bomb or anything else, it's meaningless before my eyes."

Obito phased through the Tailed Beast Bomb as it obliterated the mountain behind him.

"A beast's last struggle. Even the Eight-Tails, second only to the Nine-Tails, is no exception."

Five flames ignited at Obito's fingertips. He crouched and pressed his hand to the ground.

"Uchiha Flame Formation!"
