Chapter 470: Argument (1)
"It's useless..."
The pink-haired, green-eyed girl walked out slowly, arriving beside the boy.
"He is in a state of Intangibility." Haruno Sakura pointed at the masked man and said lightly.
Sasuke didn't actually hear her explanation clearly.
With a shocked face, he slowly turned his head, looking incredulously at the Haruno Sakura he was familiar with, walking over gracefully.
Haruno Sakura... not dead.
Confusion? Surprise? Ecstasy?... Or the desire to fiercely roast this guy who made him sad for so long in vain? —That Clone Jutsu was really realistic enough, scaring him badly!
It was hard to find a word that could accurately describe Sasuke's current mixed and extremely pleasantly surprised mood.
But in the end, all these emotions returned to a faint smile on the corner of Sasuke's mouth.
An uncontrollable smile.
"You're not dead..." He said softly.
It's really great.
"Hn..." Haruno Sakura nodded with a little shame.
After the clone was defeated, the main body should have appeared immediately; only seeing Sasuke's Sharingan suddenly begin to transform, Sakura deliberately waited for a while.
Afraid that her appearance would scare Sasuke's newly promoted Mangekyo back to three-tomoe.
Sasuke was sad for nothing—such an awkward way of awakening the Mangekyo might also be a weird flower in Uchiha history.
Others outside the field were also quite surprised.
"Haruno Sakura... also not dead?" Karin shouted in surprise.
She looked at the two calm and composed people on the field and frowned: "So the battle is back to square one?"
"No."
Rogue Ninja Sasuke shook his head with a puzzled face.
"The battle is over."
Although the pair of Mangekyo in his eye sockets didn't understand why Haruno Sakura could also resurrect, at least he understood: the resurrected Haruno Sakura obviously had already won this battle.
Because even though Izanagi can bring the dead back to life, the chakra consumed by the masked man cannot be recovered...
That is to say, at this moment, his chakra and physical strength had dropped to the bottom. Except for having no wounds, his condition was quite bad.
Obito Uchiha... unprecedentedly weak.
The reason he still dared to stand in front of everyone was merely relying on his unsolvable Space-Time Ninjutsu, able to flee at any time.
So when he discovered Haruno Sakura was still alive, Obito was quite surprised.
The face under the mask instantly became extremely ugly.
"You actually didn't die?" The man's exposed Mangekyo Sharingan narrowed gloomily, saying in a cold voice.
"Is there anything to be surprised about?" Haruno Sakura turned her head, a slightly sarcastic smile on her face.
Surprised?
Obito was certainly surprised.
He once suspected that Haruno Sakura also mastered Izanagi. But theoretically, only those who possess both the First Hokage's cells and the Sharingan can perform that jutsu; moreover, after Haruno Sakura resurrected, the Sharingan didn't permanently lose light, but turned into a pair of ordinary green eyes.
Or was the one fighting him just now merely a clone?
The man approached the truth for a moment, but immediately discarded this idea: who puts the Sharingan on a clone instead of the main body? Moreover, the Haruno Sakura fighting him just now obviously had flesh and blood, completely different from ordinary things like Ice Clones.
Obito racked his brains but couldn't figure it out, ultimately unable to see through Haruno Sakura's jutsu.
In fact, in this battle, he had failed to understand Haruno Sakura's jutsu several times.
For Obito, this was the first time.
He thought he could see through the entire ninja world, but couldn't see through Haruno Sakura's few ninjutsu.
Is it because she comes from another world?
Obito pondered silently, increasingly feeling the girl's trickiness!
He stared fixedly at Haruno Sakura's face, silent for a long time, before coldly saying to the Rogue Ninja Sasuke on the other side: "Time to retreat, Sasuke."
"Retreat?"
The pink-haired girl frowned slightly, feeling a little regretful in her heart.
If Obito attacked, she was quite confident in killing him again!
—The main body was not a clone body. Her body had been tempered to be extremely tough and powerful through years of cultivation and combat, with extremely strong taijutsu ability, perfectly fitting with her spirit; if the scene of mutual destruction between the clone and Obito just now was attacked by the main body, Obito probably wouldn't have been able to cut off her head!
However, if the masked man mastering extremely clever Space-Time Ninjutsu wanted to leave, she really couldn't do anything about him... Unless a barrier specifically dealing with Space-Time Ninjutsu was set up in advance, no one could do anything to keep this mysterious man!
"Didn't you want to kill me?" The girl turned her head, also looking at the Rogue Ninja Sasuke on the other side, provoking, "My stamina has dropped a lot, this is the best chance to kill me..."
"Why not give it a try, Uchiha Sasuke... of this world?"
Before Rogue Ninja Sasuke spoke, the slightly younger Sasuke from the same world as Haruno Sakura was startled instead.
"What's going on?" He frowned deeply, looking at the other Sasuke and asking sternly, "You actually want to kill Haruno Sakura?"
"That's right."
Rogue Ninja Sasuke admitted crisply.
Looking at the completely incomprehensible expression of the other Sasuke, Rogue Ninja Sasuke laughed contemptuously: "Me from another world, are you still immersed in Konoha's boring ninja games?"
"How stupid!"
"What did you say?" Konoha Sasuke raised his voice.
"Seeing you blinded by Konoha, I seem to see the former me..." Rogue Ninja Sasuke smiled coldly, "No, speaking of which, you are indeed the former me."
"After defecting, I learned a lot of things. I see you are probably still kept in the dark. About Uchiha matters, Konoha has always been secretive, never daring to tell the ugly things they once did!"
"No, about Konoha and Uchiha," Konoha Sasuke answered with a gloomy face, "I also know something..."
"Our clan... was annihilated because we were about to launch a rebellion, right!"
"Hahahaha—!"
Rogue Ninja Sasuke laughed wildly.
"So you only know up to this step, thinking Konoha was forced to act, so you stayed in the village with peace of mind?"
The crazy laughter twisted Sasuke's handsome face hideously.
"Let me tell you the truth! The ugly truth Konoha has always tried to hide behind!"
He gritted his teeth and said fiercely.
"After listening, you will understand why I hate Konoha so much, insisting on listing everyone in Konoha as revenge targets that must be killed!"
Rogue Ninja Sasuke's chest heaved. Recalling those things Madara told him, his emotions were still unusually agitated!
After a long while, he calmed down and looked indifferently at his other self: "You are also me, another Uchiha Sasuke... you will definitely understand."
Haruno Sakura opened her mouth, hesitated, looked at the firm eyes of the boy beside her, and still didn't intervene in the conversation between the two Sasukes.
"Let me talk to him." Sasuke patted the girl's white wrist and said calmly.
"Speak. I'd like to hear where the rumors brainwashed you came from..."
He turned his head, looking calmly at Rogue Ninja Sasuke.
