Chapter 197 - Endless Tsukuyomi, the rebirth of Kaguya

If he were in the outside world, his body would have already fully recovered. However, he was currently next to Uchiha Yue. After his body was torn apart, his chakra and vital energy were rapidly draining away. Even the Divine Tree inside him weakened at that moment, as if Uchiha Yue had drained all the juices out of him.

The source of Uchiha Yue's eyes was only a fragment of the power of the Divine Progenitor Tree. It was like an absurd fairy tale in which a descendant of a dragon, who had inherited only a drop of his blood, would devour his mighty ancestor.

It's completely absurd! After all, how could a progenitor be weaker than his descendant?

The black Zetsu, rooted to Obito's body, roared crazily:

"Damn Obito, I told you to stay out of trouble!" You're no match for Uchiha Yue right now! It's all over now. It's over! It's too late!

Everything was ready, there was only one last step left to revive Mother, but that idiot Obito decided to come to his death! Who do you think you are?

— I don't know! It's impossible! Obito shouted in desperation, trying to escape. — Uchiha Yue can't be that strong, it defies all logic! If an ordinary Mangekye Sharingan has such power, then what was our whole plan worth? What then is the Divine Tree? I had a Mangekye myself, and if he had that kind of power, why would I need all this?!

In the distance, Uchiha Yue expressionlessly lowered his hand, allowing Obito to escape. He didn't take him seriously and didn't try to stop him. There was no need for that—the fugitive wasn't going anywhere anyway.

"There is one last way, Obito! We can't escape! Black Zetsu roared, and his voice broke into Obito's consciousness through his chakra. — Endless Tsukuyomi! Use all your remaining strength to break through the blockade of the Area of Dead Silence and cover this world with the power of Tsukuyomi! This may be our last chance to kill Uchiha Yue!

To revive the Mother! This was his last hope! If Mother is reborn, all problems will be solved. Uchiha Yue is definitely going to die!

— Okay, okay, Endless Tsukuyomi!

Obito, panic-stricken, clung to this idea like a drowning man to a straw. He didn't bother to think about the obvious gap in Black Zetsu's plan: how would Endless Tsukuyomi affect someone whose ability is endless energy absorption? Most likely, all of his power would be absorbed before even reaching the target. But at that moment, logic gave way before horror.

As his body weakened to the limit, Obito finally reached the blurred boundary of the Dead Silence Area. The absorbing power here was not as terrifying as in the darkness behind. As soon as he caught his breath, he immediately activated the remnants of his power. A dim red light illuminated the edge of space, and the moon turned a bloody color. If he had been in the very center of the area, he would not have had the strength even for this pathetic spark.

—Ha ha ha, we will survive, Obito! Black Zetsu laughed enthusiastically, but in the next second abruptly separated from Obito's body and pierced through him.

Obito's face froze in disbelief. He looked down, stunned.

—B-but...Zetsu, what the hell are you doing?!" He roared furiously, but there was no strength left.

Black Zetsu just burst out laughing in response.

—Idiot, what an idiot you are! What the hell is Endless Tsukuyomi, what hope? You're all idiots, you believe in all sorts of nonsense! I'll tell you the truth, Obito. There was never any plan for Endless Tsukuyomi. This is all fiction! And I am not Uchiha Madara's will. This weakling is unworthy! I am Kaguya's will! I am a child of Mother, and everything I do is for her rebirth! Ha ha ha!

Black Zetsu was laughing madly, and Obito Uchiha's body began to swell.

"No... no, I can't die, I shouldn't...— Obito struggled. "I still have to create a world that has Rin... no!"

He couldn't accept it. He couldn't accept his fate and believe that everything he believed was a lie. Which Kaguya? What kind of will? Lies, all lies! Black Zetsu betrayed him. If only he had known... he would have crushed that thing on the spot!

But now it was too late.

In the end, in despair and remorse, Uchiha Obito turned into a ball of flesh. Then this ball shrank sharply, and a female figure emerged from it.

"Mother, you've finally been reborn, ha ha ha! Black Zetsu rejoiced. —Mother, quickly kill Uchiha Yue!" As soon as he dies… No, we have to get out of here!

But he didn't finish his sentence. Ootsutsuki Kaguya just shook her head. She grabbed him, squeezed him into a black ball, and immediately threw him away.

Black Zetsu was at death's door.

If they don't leave this hell immediately…
