Just as the ninjutsu was about to take effect, several Black Receivers pierced out from Obito's body. Half of his body was instantly covered by a black substance. The technique originally directed at Rin drifted away toward an unknown location.
"Hmph, Black Zetsu. I knew it. Madara's control over me definitely wasn't limited to just that cursed seal on my heart. However, if you dare to keep controlling me, don't bother leaving now," said Obito, whose strength had become incomparable ever since becoming the Ten-Tails jinchuriki. After speaking these threatening words, an invisible pressure began competing with Black Zetsu for control of his body.
Black Zetsu, having already completed its task, seemed to receive some kind of command. Without speaking a word, it vanished from Obito.
The moment Black Zetsu escaped, Obito didn't hesitate. He once again cast the Rinne Rebirth Technique.
A ray of light shot into Rin Nohara's spirit body. Regardless of how skillfully her spirit form had been developed through the [Spirit Transformation] technique—so lifelike that it was nearly indistinguishable from a real one—it still wasn't a true physical body. Her spiritual energy was slowly fading away. Receiving Obito's ninjutsu, Rin's spirit body emitted a brilliant glow. As time passed, her height gradually increased, transforming from a small child into a grown woman.
As she matured, she grew taller and more graceful in posture. Her originally short hair grew into a long cascade reaching her waist. Her slender, fair arms, as smooth as polished jade, hung naturally by her narrow waist, making her look even more enchantingly beautiful. Her face followed suit, gradually becoming more refined, with more clearly defined and three-dimensional features that drew the eye and compelled people to gaze at her longer.
With her growth, her temperament also became more mature and poised. Her pair of bright eyes especially conveyed her inner beauty.
Obito stared at Rin, completely captivated. After a while, he sighed, "Rin, you're truly beautiful."
Rin Nohara clearly felt the change in herself. She couldn't believe it—had she really just effortlessly obtained a completely new physical body and been fully resurrected?
Her eyes brimming with emotion, Rin said, "Obito, you..."
"Ha ha, Rin, we can talk later. Right now, I need to fix the mistakes I made in the past," said Obito, seemingly unwilling to face Rin, whose charm was now overwhelmingly captivating. In an instant, he appeared before Kushina using the Shunshin technique.
"Kushina, the Nine-Tails' rampage all those years ago was my fault. I know that no words can undo the pain I caused you and Master. But at least now, I can reunite your family."
Without waiting for Kushina to respond, Obito cast the same technique once again.
The Edo Tensei body of Kushina felt a long-forgotten heartbeat and the sensation of blood flowing through her veins. She had truly been resurrected.
Instinctively, Kushina looked toward Minato. Their gazes met midair and could no longer part.
Obito watched this scene with satisfaction. Floating midair, he proclaimed, "I was the one who ignited the Fourth Great Ninja War. I accept full responsibility for all the sins I have committed. This time, I will resurrect everyone who died in the war."
Countless ninja in the Allied Forces fell into a terrifying silence at those words. They couldn't believe it—the man they'd just seen as a world-ending demon had suddenly become everyone's savior. This transformation felt too surreal.
Minato understood clearly in his heart that the most important reason for this change lay in one of his students, Rin Nohara. That angelic girl could purify everyone's soul. She was also the sacred Pure Land in Obito's heart. Just standing there, without saying a word, she was enough to make Obito turn back.
Obito unleashed the massive chakra within his body, summoning Yama, the King of Hell. As Yama stood up and opened its giant mouth, countless souls of the dead were released, returning to their respective corpses. Green lights covered the previously deceased ninja one by one.
Under the incredulous gazes of the Allied Forces, the ninja who had just died actually stood up again.
"They're alive. They really came back to life."
"That's great."
Naruto Uzumaki was moved to tears and excitedly hugged his mother. Since the start of the Fourth Great Ninja War, there couldn't have been a better ending.
Not far away, Madara Uchiha bit his arm, tasting the blood, his eyes revealing great joy and pride. After years of planning, everything had finally succeeded at this moment. From now on, no one could stop his plan. True peace would finally come to this world.
Threatened by Obito, Black Zetsu grumbled discontentedly while hiding in the shadows: "That damned Obito is beyond saving. Using such an extensive Rinnegan reincarnation technique, even as the Ten-Tail jinchuriki, he's certainly doomed. He'll end up rotting like trash. No matter which side you look from, he's a traitor, an indecisive piece of garbage! Hated by both enemies and allies? That's rare even in a thousand years of history."
Anya had already arrived on the battlefield, looking down at everything happening below. Activating her Spirit Transformation Technique, her soul entered Obito's spiritual space.
Obito, who had cast a large-scale Rinne Rebirth Technique, was already suffering backlash. His consciousness was being violently torn apart by the Ten-Tail, and his soul was on the verge of collapse.
"Be quiet."
With just these two simple words from Anya, the Ten-Tail, previously struggling violently, immediately calmed down, not daring to resist even slightly.
"It's you," Obito said, recognizing her without a trace of surprise. "Everything must have been part of your plan, right?"
Anya shook her head. "No. Rin not dying was something I never expected, and something I'm genuinely glad about. By now, you should have realized the truth—Rin's death was actually rooted in Madara. He chose you specifically to plunge you into darkness. That Rin died was simply a natural consequence."
Hatred burned fiercely in Obito's eyes. "I know. You also hate Madara. Now he's revived and no longer possesses the Immortal Body. I want to know—what's your confidence level in killing him?"
Anya gave a firm answer immediately. "One hundred percent."
"Then I can feel at ease." A look of liberation appeared in Obito's eyes. "Coming specially to visit someone about to die, you must have something you need from me."
Anya said plainly, "Yes, I hope you can use your last remaining chakra to revive Hashirama and Tobirama."
"The First and Second Hokage," Obito chuckled, "the Will of Fire in Konoha originated from them. At one point, becoming Hokage was my dream too... Unfortunately," his voice trailed off before he continued, "Being able to resurrect both Hokage at once—now that's an honor. At the very least, my existence will be forever tied to their return. In a way… it's like completing my dream too."
Without hesitation, Obito agreed. At the moment his body weakened to the extreme, two beams of light projected onto Hashirama and Tobirama.
Meanwhile, on the Allied Ninja Forces' side, nearly everyone had been resurrected.
