"Alright, now it's my turn to make my move," Obito said with a slightly impatient smile.
He gently raised his hand, his fingertips lightly tapping together, producing a crisp sound.
Hey!
This soft sound suddenly made the surrounding scenery become strange and unpredictable.
In an instant, the bright moon that had been hanging in the night sky suddenly disappeared.
The boundless天地 (heaven and earth) were drawn by an inexplicable force, plunging into a sudden silence and darkness.
However, the disappearance of the moon was merely a fleeting illusion.
When the bright moon reappeared in the sky, it was no longer its former silvery-white color, but had transformed into a shocking blood red.
The crimson moonlight poured down on the earth, staining everything with a chilling blood-red hue.
Obito slowly raised the long sword in his hand, and with a slight flick of his wrist, the blade flashed through the air.
Clang——
Almost at the same instant the sound rang out
Obito had silently arrived in front of the mysterious masked man, his long sword slashing horizontally at a speed too fast to catch!
Upon seeing this, the mysterious masked man's pupils contracted sharply, and he inwardly exclaimed in amazement, "So fast!"
Almost reflexively, he immediately activated his intangibility ability, his body twisting in the air, easily dodging the fatal blow.
Immediately afterwards, the mysterious masked man quickly distanced himself from Obito.
A surge of intense heat coursed through his chest, followed by the eruption of a massive, blazing fireball from his mouth, accompanied by a deafening roar.
Fire Release: Great Fireball!
Faced with the oncoming raging flames, he flicked his wrist, and his longsword drew an elegant arc in the air.
In an instant, a massive red sword aura swept out like a tornado, heading straight for the fireball, tearing the imposing fireball to shreds in the blink of an eye.
Just as the sword energy dissipated and the smoke and dust had not yet settled, the mysterious masked man used the visual obstruction caused by the fireball to dash out of the smoke like a ghost.
A new, gleaming chain appeared in his hand; he intended to get close to Obito and launch a surprise attack.
However, Obito seemed to have anticipated this. He stood still, letting the chains and explosive tags fly around him, none of them able to touch the hem of his clothes.
"Did they guess it?" The mysterious masked man frowned.
Then, Obito's figure flashed, and he leaped into the air like a ghost.
A dazzling curtain of sword light swirled around him, enveloping the mysterious masked man below.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Beneath this impenetrable sea of sword shadows, the mysterious masked man had no choice but to constantly use his ethereal abilities to evade.
Each dodge consumed his precious chakra, and a hint of anxiety and resentment gradually crept into his eyes.
"So shameless?!" The mysterious masked man's eyes widened in anger, his heart filled with resentment.
He realized he couldn't even touch the hem of his opponent's clothes; such a fight was undoubtedly futile.
Each attack from the opponent forced him to use his intangibility.
Frequent use of this ability would undoubtedly be a huge burden on his eyes, and he probably wouldn't be able to maintain it for long.
boom!
As the barrage of sword shadows finally descended, Obito used this attack to slam down heavily, yet it still pierced through the mysterious masked man's holographic avatar.
Only the earth bore the brunt of the force at that moment, innocently leaving behind a grotesque, gaping crater.

"This is pointless. We've been blurring over the whole time, it's all for nothing."
Obito smirked and casually sheathed his longsword.
The masked man gave Obito a deep, complex look, but offered no response.
He got nothing to show for it? He was clearly the one getting beaten up the whole time!
He then quickly retreated, seemingly trying to adjust his tactics.
However, at that very moment, Obito moved even faster than him!
Several chains, gleaming with a cold light, seemed to grow out of thin air, spreading out instantly and weaving into an impenetrable net!
Let's put an end to this charade quickly.
"I feel like Yuuki is about to burst."
Obito's soft laughter, accompanied by the jingling of chains, drifted into the mysterious masked man's ears.
"Um?"
The mysterious masked man's eyes narrowed sharply. Faced with the oncoming chains, he reflexively activated his ethereal transformation.
He secretly rejoiced; if it weren't for this intangibility technique, he probably would have died several times over tonight.
Just when he was brimming with confidence, thinking that this time he could make all the attacks miss, as usual,
Unexpected changes
"what the hell!"
The mysterious masked man was startled.
The chains that Obito threw out actually bound him tightly even in his Hollowfied state!
"What on earth is going on?!"
The mysterious masked man was greatly shocked. Had his divine power, which he had always been proud of, malfunctioned?
He didn't use it continuously for five minutes; it was used intermittently the whole time.
"You really think I can't do anything to you, bro?"
Obito gripped one end of the chain, which seemed to possess its own will, binding the mysterious masked man tightly and making him unable to move an inch.
Looking at the immobilized, mysterious masked man, Obito casually tossed aside the chains.
Then, he slowly walked towards the mysterious masked man, drawing his long sword from his waist with each step. The surrounding air seemed to freeze with each withdrawal.
Although Obito's movements were slow, each step he took seemed to teleport him more than ten meters.
In the blink of an eye, they were in front of the mysterious masked man.
Obito raised his long sword high, and without the slightest hesitation, slashed down fiercely.
In an instant, everything went black before the mysterious masked man's eyes, and in the moment before his consciousness faded...
He seemed to hear a whisper.
Night has fallen, disappear quietly.
Chapter 142 Challenge: Second Playthrough
"what--"
The mysterious masked man took a deep breath and his eyes snapped open.
However, what lay before them was neither a blood-stained blade nor a chilling underworld landscape.
Instead, it was a lush, verdant forest full of flowers.
After a brief moment of confusion, he touched his unharmed body, and a question arose in his mind.
"I'm not dead?"
A hint of surprise flashed across the face beneath the mask.
Obito's strike should have been a fatal blow.
He was bound by chains and unable to move; his pupil technique inexplicably failed.
Even intangibility was impossible, and even the ultimate trump card, Izanagi, failed to activate due to some kind of interference.
He just watched helplessly as the sharp blade approached, like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of his captor.
"What exactly is going on?"
The mysterious masked man began to survey his surroundings.
This is still the path beside Konoha Village, the place he came from.
But all traces left after the fierce battle with Obito have disappeared without a trace.
The damaged ground was restored to its original smoothness, and the trees swept by the sword energy remained intact.
Even the blood-red moon in the sky returned to a pale yellow, radiating a gentle light.
He was left standing there alone, everything seemed like a dream.
"Uh……"
