Chapter 430 Collapse of Faith
In an instant.
Obito's hand was only a hair's breadth away from Nagato's eyelids! He had to take it back! This was his last hope, the foundation upon which all his actions and sins had been built!
however--
A pure white light appeared silently in the gap between Obito's wrist and Nagato's eye!
It was a small energy ball, only the size of a billiard ball, radiating a quiet and pure white light.
It appeared so abruptly that Obito's pupils shrank to pinpoints beneath his mask!
death!
That was a sharp alarm from the deepest, most instinctive part of the soul!
【Rasengan·Suncore】
Obito, relying on his survival instincts, forcibly interrupted his grabbing action and frantically poured all his chakra into the Mangekyou Sharingan!
His body, along with his right hand that was about to touch the white sphere, suddenly vanished at the last second! It merged into another space.
The small white ball calmly "passed through" his wrist, which was in a holographic state.
Then, it vanished without a trace.
Clearly, the practitioner has achieved a level of complete control over it.
Obito didn't dare look at Naruto and the Uchiha woman beside him again. Their strength far surpassed his own!
Pain's Six Paths were easily destroyed like toys, and he already understood that he could never be a match for these two.
withdraw!
Without the slightest hesitation, and without even bothering to look at Nagato or Konan's reactions, Obito's mind raced!
"Buzz—!"
The space around him twisted violently, forming a vortex-shaped entrance. His figure was sucked in as if into it, disappearing without a trace.
Divine Power Space.
An eternal, lifeless gray hue, with countless enormous, square stone pillar platforms suspended in the endless void.
"Bang!"
Obito stumbled and fell heavily to one knee on the cold stone surface. The impact made his knee ache, but he was oblivious to it.
"Ha...haa...haa..."
He was breathing heavily, his chest heaving like a bellows, and his face beneath the mask was distorted by the extreme emotional impact.
It wasn't just because of the life-or-death situation just now, but also because of... the collapse of my beliefs.
"Ugh... Ahhhhhh!!!"
Unable to suppress his emotions any longer, he suddenly raised his hand and ripped off the orange spiral mask from his face, slamming it to the ground with a sharp "crack!" The mask shattered and rolled into the shadows.
What was revealed was a face that was half ferocious and half normal, yet equally filled with pain, madness, and collapse.
"Ughh ...
He threw his head back and let out a roar that was not human, a mixture of despair, anger, resentment, and pain! The sound echoed in the empty, deathly silent divine space.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Chakra surged out wildly, accompanied by rampaging emotions!
Thick, twisted wooden vines and tree trunks, like wildly growing monsters, burst forth from the stone beneath his feet and from the surrounding void!
They spread, entangled, tore, and frantically destroyed everything around them that could be destroyed—the floating stone pillars and platforms were struck and crushed by tremendous force, turning into smaller pebbles that drifted in the void.
However, no matter how rampant the Wood Release was, no matter how much he roared, no matter how much he destroyed this space that belonged only to him... that chilling, bone-deep sense of collapse welling up from the depths of his soul was like a persistent, incurable disease, impossible to dispel.
Project Eye of the Moon... is it a hoax?!
That ultimate plan, instilled in him by Madara Uchiha, which he regarded as the only salvation, for which he was willing to betray everything, slaughter his comrades, start a war, and drag the entire world into the mire... was it all just a deception from beginning to end?!
The Infinite Tsukuyomi... wasn't meant to create a world with Rin... but to turn everyone into White Zetsu... and resurrect that Kaguya Otsutsuki?!
Everything he had given up—his identity and future as "Uchiha Obito"... all the sins he had committed—releasing the Nine-Tails, killing his teacher's wife and countless villagers, manipulating Kirigakure to create the Blood Mist Village, killing Yahiko, leading Nagato down the path of fanaticism, participating in the capture of the Tailed Beasts and causing turmoil...
All this abandonment and sin... only resulted in a colossal joke?! A pathetic pawn, doing all the work for someone else?!
"No...it's impossible...I don't believe it...!"
He muttered to himself, his voice hoarse, his fists clenched so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, drawing blood. He didn't want to believe it! He absolutely couldn't believe it! If this were true, then the entire meaning of his life would be utterly reduced to nothingness and absurdity! More terrifying than death!
But... the evidence is too obvious.
Black Zetsu... that two-faced guy who had always been by his side, giving him advice... slipped away silently before Naruto even started telling his story!
His aura vanished completely, leaving no trace even to him. Just moments before, as he had been unable to contain himself and was about to rush out to seize the Samsara, Black Zetsu had been earnestly dissuading him, saying things like "the situation is unclear" and "we should consider things further"...
And then there are the White Zetsu… those enormous, seemingly endless white monsters created from the Gedo Mazo… They were actually humans transformed by the Infinite Tsukuyomi a thousand years ago?!
The "tools" and "intelligence sources" that I have been using and manipulating are, in essence, countless pathetic victims whose humanity and future have been stripped away by Kaguya?
If his "Eye of the Moon Project" succeeds... will all the living people, including himself, become those mindless, thoughtless White Zetsu, completely at the mercy of others?!
"Ha...haa...haa..."
Obito gasped for breath, the intense emotional shock making his vision blur. The information that "Menma" was actually Naruto Uzumaki didn't stir any emotion in him at this moment; he didn't care who the other person was at all.
The reason he rushed out to snatch the Rinnegan without regard for anything else was because he had only one last obsession left, which kept him from going completely insane on the spot.
The art of reincarnation and rebirth.
Using the power of the Rinnegan, revive Rin.
Even if the Eye of the Moon is fake, even if the world is destroyed, even if everything is meaningless... at least, at least we must bring Lin back!
This was his last pillar of support, the only thing he still wanted to cling to in this absurd and dark world! With the Rinnegan, he could use that technique… he could…
but……
What if the path you've chosen from the very beginning was wrong?
What if all the choices I made as "Obito Uchiha" were stepping into a carefully woven trap from the moment that boulder crushed half my body and I witnessed Rin die under Kakashi's Lightning Blade?
Obito slowly knelt down, his hands bracing against the cold stone surface, his head bowed low.
A thought that he had never dared to ponder, one that had been obscured by prejudice and hatred, quietly surfaced in his chaotic mind.
in case……
If only...
I didn't choose to go with "Sand"...
They did not accept the "Eye of the Moon" theory...
Without wearing this mask, to conceal his identity...
Instead... return to Konoha...
The moment this hypothetical thought arose, it was like a red-hot iron branding his already numb soul, bringing a suffocating pain.
He suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot right eye wide open, staring at the eternal, despairing gray void of the Divine Might Space, but no sound could come out of his throat.
Only silent screams and a heart that is completely collapsing.
"Found you, you inferior creature."
Suddenly, a chilling voice rang in my ears.
--who?!
Obito's hair stood on end, and he whirled around.
A figure slowly walked out of the crack into this absolutely private domain that should have belonged only to Uchiha Obito.
With blond hair and blue eyes, the newcomer's face did indeed bear a striking resemblance to Minato Namikaze, inheriting the handsome features of the "Golden Flash." However, it was his eyes that truly stood out.
The left eye is a familiar, consistent deep blue.
But the right eye—that eye—presented a completely different, unsettling form: a pitch-black background, like the night sky, and flowing in the center of that darkness were brilliant and mysterious golden pupil patterns.
