The scene before them rendered countless viewers across the multiverse speechless.
One Piece World — Straw Hat Pirates
"Damn it!!! They're friends! Why are they fighting like that?!"
Luffy yelled, face twisted in anger as he watched both men pierce through each other's bodies.
"They've long since reached a crossroads in life… When paths diverge, you can no longer walk together."
Zoro exhaled quietly, eyes fixed on Obito and Kakashi.
"But they're still friends, aren't they?! Why would this happen?!"
Luffy protested again, unable to accept it.
This time Zoro turned, gaze unwavering.
"Luffy. Because they're friends.
When a comrade strays so far down the wrong path that they can't turn back…
the only right thing left—is to stop them, even if you have to kill them."
"But—!"
"Luffy…"
Zoro turned away again, voice low.
"If one day I lose my way… don't hesitate. Don't show mercy."
"Kill me."
His expression was lost, a rare vulnerability.
He didn't know what the future held, nor what he might become.
But if he ever strayed into darkness…
The last thing he would want is for Luffy to let him continue.
Luffy stared, confused, unable to grasp this kind of tragedy.
He had never suffered such a choice.
But seeing Zoro's face…
He fell silent.
Fairy Tail World — Fairy Tail Guild
Natsu watched Kakashi and Obito exchanging fatal blows, his heart tied in knots.
He too struggled to understand comrades killing each other.
Yet… he could somehow feel why it happened.
That contradiction crushed him.
What would he do, if one day his own guildmates stood against him like this?
"HEY! Flame-brain!!"
Gray kicked Natsu across the room.
"You wanna die, bastard exhibitionist?!"
Natsu roared back instantly—his gloom washed away by pure instinct and irritation.
But Gray didn't charge him as expected.
Instead, he took a swig of alcohol and muttered:
"If we ever end up like them…
you better not be the one who gets taken down."
Natsu froze.
Then smirked.
"Hah? Like you could take me down.
You better pray I don't beat you instead!"
"Oh yeah? You think you can beat me?"
"You wanna test it right now?! Huh?! Exhibitionist!!"
"Say that again!!"
"Exhibitionist!!!"
Back to the Video
Obito stared at the hole in his chest.
He yanked the black rod out of Kakashi's body.
Blood dripped from his lips.
Staggering, he retreated step by step—
the damage from Chidori was severe, even with his Zetsu-modified body.
He looked like a man on the verge of death.
Kof—
Half-kneeling on the ruined ground, Obito lifted his head toward Kakashi.
"My mission… still isn't done.
Kakashi… stay here."
His right eye spiraled, pulling him into Kamui space.
Obito vanished.
"Kakashi…" Kakashi murmured, unable to hide the heartbreak in his voice.
The scene shifted.
A devastated battlefield appeared.
THUD!!
A swirling vortex opened in the rubble.
Obito fell out of it, collapsing onto the ground.
Across the field—
A familiar figure stood tall.
Uchiha Madara.
"…Hmm? Tch. Obito, huh? Looks like there's no choice," Madara muttered, displeased.
"If it's come to this, I'll simply use the Rinne Rebirth on myself first."
He had originally manipulated Obito for one purpose—to resurrect him.
He still wanted one more battle with Hashirama, but Obito's condition made that impossible.
Madara clasped his hands.
Golden light enveloped his body.
The camera cut back to Obito, collapsed and barely conscious.
Then—
Spikes burst from his right side.
A black figure surged into him—
Black Zetsu.
It invaded his body, forcing his hands into seals.
"AAAAHHHHH!!!"
Obito struggled desperately.
He understood instantly what Black Zetsu intended.
He would never resurrect Madara.
But he was too weak to resist.
Madara's revival—
Was it truly about to happen!?
Third Hokage Hiruzen stared in horror, palms sweating.
Was Uchiha Madara really coming back to life?
Suddenly—
FLASH!!!
A golden streak cut through space itself.
A figure all of Konoha knew well appeared—
His kunai slicing Obito's possessed body apart.
The Fourth Hokage — Namikaze Minato!!
Gasps erupted across the Hidden Leaf.
He was dead—yet he stood there, alive in the video.
How!?
Had even Lord Fourth been revived in the future!?
Speculation exploded.
Hiruzen inhaled sharply.
He never imagined he would see that familiar jutsu again—
Flying Thunder God.
And the man who created it.
Obito looked up, dazed.
"Minato… Sensei…" he murmured.
Minato's eyes widened.
"So it really is you… Obito…"
Obito collapsed before him.
Minato stood wordlessly, emotions raging like a storm.
Never had he imagined his reunion with a beloved student would be like this.
And to realize…
the masked man from the Nine-Tails attack—
Was him.
Just then—
The ground trembled—violently.
Only now did the viewers understand that beneath Obito…
Was no mere landscape.
It was a living, titanic creature.
A beast shrinking rapidly—
its mass funneling toward Obito.
What was happening!?
Then—
A white sphere rose into the air.
CRACK…
CRACK!!
Webs of fractures spread across its surface—
BOOM!!!
The orb shattered.
And from its remnants—
A white figure emerged.
A suffocating aura exploded outward.
A power beyond anything Obito had shown before.
The Ten Tails' Jinchūriki — Uchiha Obito…
has arrived!!!
