Naruto: Boruto Returns to Shippuden

Chapter 240 Obito

After Afei successfully escaped, Momoshiki slowly looked around. The once noisy battlefield had now fallen silent.

Then, Momoshiki's gaze fell upon the enormous divine tree shell below. He reached out and gently waved his hand in the direction of the divine tree shell, dispelling it from the area.

In an instant, the massive divine tree's shell transformed into a thick cloud of smoke, filling the air. As time passed, the smoke gradually thinned and eventually dissipated completely.

Momoshiki pondered to himself that he had not yet found an Otsutsuki offering that could provide the immense power needed for the Divine Tree's revival. At the same time, he was still inside Boruto's body, a state that brought many inconveniences and restrictions, preventing him from moving freely.

For now, he can only hope that the ants outside can gather enough chakra to revive the Divine Tree. Only when they successfully collect enough energy can he proceed with his next move.

......

As Afei's consciousness gradually detached from that dimension, the scene before him began to distort and recombine, making it difficult for him to adapt for a while.

As the blur before his eyes gradually dissipated, he realized that he was still in the same posture as when he used his Sharingan on Boruto. Without hesitation, he immediately retreated, quickly putting several meters between himself and Boruto.

During that intense movement, Afei's body was subjected to tremendous pressure, which aggravated the injuries he sustained in his previous duel with Momoshiki. He suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood, and as the injury flared up, he became unsteady on his feet, almost unable to stand.

He painfully realized that the injuries he sustained in his duel with that monster, Momoshiki, had not dissipated with the return of his consciousness; instead, they were all reflected in the spiritual realm of this reality.

At the same time, the eye that Tobi had used to activate Izanagi had completely drooped, symbolizing that the effect of Izanagi had completely dissipated and could no longer provide him with any ability to change reality. This made his already pale face even more unsightly, and his heart was filled with anger.

He looked at Boruto in front of him with resentment in his eyes, but he had already lost the ability to continue fighting. Staying here would only put him in a more dangerous situation. So, he gradually had the idea of ​​retreating and planning for the future.

Boruto also noticed the strange behavior Tobi exhibited after using the Sharingan genjutsu on him. Tobi's aura became extremely weak, and he seemed to be on the verge of collapse, like a candle flickering in the wind. Boruto knew without a doubt that this must be Momoshiki's doing.

Afei took a deep breath, trying to calm his chaotic emotions. Then, he quickly formed a divine hand gesture. As he moved, the space in front of him began to distort violently, gradually forming an invisible vortex.

A moment later, Boruto found himself and Tobi transported outside the Kamui dimension.

Not only that, but some black stones were also transferred to the outside of the Kamui Space along with them. Each of these stones was clearly engraved with Boruto's Flying Thunder God mark left in the Kamui Space.

However, Boruto did not show any unusual expression. These Flying Thunder God marks that Tobi had eliminated were only a small part of what he had inscribed in the Kamui dimension. He could still enter Tobi's alternate dimension.

Boruto gave Tobi a nonchalant smile: "What, are you planning to give up on fighting me?"

However, Tobi didn't pick up where Boruto left off, but instead spoke up on his own: "I never expected that Kakashi would be able to train a ninja like you." Tobi narrowed his eyes slightly and continued, "I really underestimated you. Your performance far exceeded my expectations. It seems that Kakashi has put a lot of effort into you."

Boruto stared at Tobi in front of him, realizing that the other party no longer intended to use the false name "Uchiha Madara" to talk to him, so he said, "If I'm not mistaken, Kakashi-sensei's Sharingan and the Mangekyou Sharingan in your right eye must be the same pair." His tone was full of certainty.

Whether it's the sudden Rasenshuriken in the Kamui dimension, the Mangekyou Sharingan pattern that Kakashi and Tobi have identical right eyes, or the many similarities in their eye powers, all these details demonstrate that there is an intricate connection between the two of them.

Upon hearing Boruto's words, Tobi didn't rush to deny them. Instead, he gave a self-deprecating smile, shrugged nonchalantly, and said, "Ah, that was the worst thing I've ever done in my life..."

Then, Tobi's eyes suddenly turned sharp: "...That is, during the battle of Kannabi Bridge, he risked his life to save Kakashi and gave his Sharingan to a guy who would not help his comrade in his death!" With each sentence he spoke, his face grew colder and the anger in his eyes became more intense.

Hearing Obito's resentful and accusatory words, Boruto frowned and looked directly into Obito's eyes, saying, "Kakashi-sensei is definitely not what you say. There must be something going on..."

Before Boruto could finish speaking, Tobi interrupted him angrily, his eyes flashing with malice, "But that's the truth!" His voice was filled with anger and pain, as he struggled to suppress his inner rage. "He betrayed my expectations and killed the most important person to me with his own hands!"

Obito slowly lowered his eyes, unwilling to look directly at the reality before him. However, the hellish scenes from years ago surged into his mind like a tidal wave, constantly replaying in his head. His voice was low and deep: "This filled me with despair for this hellish world, which is why I made up my mind to completely overturn it..." As he spoke, the space around Obito's eyes began to distort violently again, and the unique fluctuations of Kamui reappeared.

In just a moment, the space around Obito's eyes became increasingly distorted. Boruto saw that Obito was preparing to leave, raised an eyebrow slightly, and took a step forward.

Boruto's actions startled Obito, who immediately shouted, "One day! I, Obito Uchiha, will personally question Kakashi!"

Having said that, Obito didn't dare to hesitate for a moment. He activated the power of Kamui and disappeared from Boruto's sight, fearing that Boruto would pull him out of Kamui and forcibly bring him to Kakashi's side in the next second.
