[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Black Zetsu have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
Chapter 210 Age Spots: You're so young, and you already want to dance?
on the screen.
A lithe figure darted swiftly through the dim forest.
Obito moved like a rabbit, rushing towards the direction he remembered.
He lightly leaped into the air with his toes, landing on a tree branch in front of him with such speed that he almost left a trail of afterimages.
All I could hear was the whistling wind and the rustling of leaves.
After running a distance, Obito suddenly stepped on a tree trunk, his body rising high, and with a few leaps, he reached the top of a towering tree, raising his hand to shield his forehead and gazing into the distance.
In the morning light, the outlines of the distant mountains are clearly visible, making it easy to determine the direction.
Obito quickly determined the location of his destination.
After confirming the direction, he breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but mutter to himself, "It's so inconvenient without Kamui!"
He was quite depressed.
If he could use divine power, why would he need to travel all this way on foot? With divine power activated, he could go wherever he wanted.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but chuckle, shook his head, and shook off the jumble of emotions from his mind.
After catching his breath, Obito leaped again, launching himself out of the canopy of the giant tree.
He moved swiftly between the trees like a fleeting shadow.
Countless tree shadows receded beneath my feet, and the surrounding scenery flashed by.
Unbeknownst to them, the trees gradually thinned out.
Soon, a familiar hilltop appeared in the distance.
Obito's pupils contracted slightly: We've arrived!
He stood still for a moment, and after confirming that everything was correct, he bent his knees and jumped down.
After landing, Obito paused briefly to determine the direction of the entrance at the foot of the mountain, and then strode towards the mountainside with great speed.
A dark, gaping hole could be vaguely seen there.
A cave hidden in the mountainside stands quietly not far away, half-hidden by ancient trees and vines with intertwined roots.
Obito gazed at the familiar cave entrance before him, took a deep breath, and his expression became complicated.
Once upon a time, this cave held great significance for him, and now, stepping into it again, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotions.
[Ding! Emotional fluctuations from Uchiha Obito have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
……
in the audience.
Everyone present stared wide-eyed.
Jiraiya stared at the cave that appeared on the screen and exclaimed, "This place... isn't this the same place I found in the Land of Grass last time?"
[Ding! Jiraiya's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]
Kakashi, standing nearby, also looked surprised upon hearing this. What about that underground base they discovered in the Land of Grass last time?
[Ding! Kakashi Hatake's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +500!]
He turned to look at Jiraiya: "Is this the place?!"
Jiraiya nodded solemnly: "That's right, this is the place."
Kakashi looked at the screen again; the outline of the mountain was all too familiar to him!
It was in this very place that Obito met with an accident and was buried in a cave by a boulder.
At the end of his life, Obito entrusted his Sharingan to him.
Those were painful memories he could never forget in his life!
In an instant, scenes from the past flashed through Kakashi's mind, causing him to freeze in place, his breath catching in his throat.
Meanwhile, Black Zetsu, who had been hiding in the shadows and silently watching the screen, couldn't help but show his shock at this moment.
"What the hell..."
The others present didn't know where they were, but he knew very well.
Isn't this the place where Madara Uchiha hid back then?
Obito actually came directly to Madara Uchiha?
What does he want to do?
Black Zetsu grew increasingly alarmed: Could this bizarre dream have been conjured up even by the long-dead Uchiha Madara?
He felt things were developing in an unexpected direction.
……
on the screen.
In front of the cave, Dai Tu paused for a moment, not daring to rush in.
He took a deep breath, his eyes flickering with hesitation at the dim cave entrance.
He was very clear about the kind of existence he was about to face.
All the signs that had occurred before indicated that Madara Uchiha had been secretly watching him all along.
During this time, Obito also racked his brains to collect any clues about Uchiha Madara.
Unfortunately, he lacked talent in intelligence gathering, especially without using White Zetsu.
Even after he had searched diligently for a long time, he still found nothing.
However, Obito was not anxious.
In his view, no matter what kind of scheme Madara Uchiha had set up behind the scenes, his ultimate goal was nothing more than to use him to complete the so-called "Infinite Tsukuyomi" plan.
Given this, even if he appeared before the other party beforehand, Madara Uchiha probably wouldn't kill him.
Moreover, his investigative methods are limited, but there's always Kakashi.
Yes, Obito certainly hadn't forgotten about the audience seats.
Moreover, Obito came here with the intention of having Kakashi help him investigate.
Kakashi is definitely watching all of this from the audience right now.
Compared to him, Kakashi is better at intelligence analysis, and many things can be left to him to investigate.
Obito smiled inwardly; he had delivered so many clues to Kakashi.
Kakashi will definitely be able to find something out of this.
Obito had confidence in Kakashi.
With this in mind, Obito composed himself and stopped hesitating.
He exhaled a breath of stale air, then strode into the cave.
The cave was dark and gloomy, as if an invisible chill was emanating from all directions.
Obito slowed his pace, reached out to hold onto the stone wall, and carefully felt his way forward.
He knew the terrain here like the back of his hand.
After all, after Madara Uchiha died, he and Zetsu hid here for a long time.
Using the dim light of a few oil lamps sparsely hanging on the stone wall, Dai Tu walked familiarly into the depths of the underground passage.
Footsteps echoed through the narrow passageway, each step sounding exceptionally clear.
He hurried down the downward passage, his footsteps echoing rhythmically on the steep stone steps.
In the silent cave, only Obito's own breathing and footsteps could be heard, making the atmosphere even more profound and unfathomable.
A few minutes later, a faint yellow light appeared at the end of the passage.
Obito's spirits lifted, and his speed increased slightly.
As he stepped down the last stone step, a massive stone gate suddenly appeared before him.
The stone gate was over two zhang high and very wide. Its surface was covered with the marks of time and sealing patterns, making it look heavy and solid, like an ancient beast lying still in the middle of the road.
Obito stepped forward, placed his palms against the cold, rough stone door, gritted his teeth, and pushed hard.
However, the stone gate remained completely still, without even making a sound.
Obito's forehead veins bulged, and he grunted as he gathered all his strength to try and push the door open again. However, the door remained unmoved, as if mocking the boy's overestimation of his abilities.
Obito exhaled, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.
This heavy stone gate was naturally insignificant to him in reality.
With his adult strength, he could easily shatter it in an instant.
However, he is still just a teenager who has not fully grown up, and his chakra and power are far from what they were at their peak.
It was indeed a bit of a stretch to push open the stone door with the brute force of this young body.
Obito took a half step back, stood still and pondered, his brows furrowing involuntarily.
If Kakashi were here, he might be able to find a way using Earth Release, but he doesn't know that kind of ninjutsu.
For a moment, Obito couldn't help but feel a little troubled.
Before he could come up with a better solution, in that moment of hesitation, the ground beneath his feet suddenly trembled slightly.
"Boom—rumble..."
The roar of machinery suddenly broke the silence of the underground.
The massive stone gate before them was slowly trembling, and dust rose from the tightly closed cracks.
The heavy stone door began to slide on its own!
