Chapter 22 - Chapter 22 Success! Departure

It was as if Takuno had concentrated all his Chakra into this one Ninjutsu; the moment several vacuum waves shot towards Obito, his Chakra also seemed to be completely depleted.

Obito's lips curled into a smirk, and he moved forward, completely ignoring the vacuum waves.

However, after the vacuum waves passed through his body, they did not dissipate; instead, they changed direction and slashed towards the connection point of the giant Gedo Statue's arm!

Upon seeing this, Nagato's eyes flickered; it was time for him to fulfill his promise.

A tube, which had appeared behind him at some unknown point, once again connected him to the Gedo Statue.

"What?!" Obito, sensing the vacuum waves change direction, couldn't help but turn to look at the Gedo Statue.

The vacuum waves continuously slashed at the Gedo Statue's shoulder joint, which seemed to have been separated in advance, with more than a dozen consecutive slashes hitting the same spot!

Although this was a Ninjutsu capable of cutting through the earlier stages of Susanoo, it didn't seem sufficient for the Gedo Statue; however... the arm, dozens of meters long, completely broke off and detached from the Gedo Statue, seemingly about to fall from the sky.

At this moment, Obito's eyes widened; was the opponent's goal actually to attack the Gedo Statue?

All the Ninjutsu before that were used to attract his attention, so now, has Takuno, who has used up his Chakra... really used up his Chakra?!

Even if Obito was unwilling to admit it, a conclusion still surfaced in his mind.

That was... no!

The opponent had absolutely deliberately put on a show for him!

How cunning!

After cursing inwardly, Obito rushed towards the spot where the Gedo Statue's arm was about to fall, intending to retrieve that arm into the Kamui dimension.

Even if the opponent only wanted one arm, he would absolutely not let them succeed!

Takuno watched this scene and did not stop him, as he knew it would be impossible to stop him with his Kamui power anyway.

If that arm were to truly fall, he might indeed find it very difficult to obtain, but the problem was that he had never intended for that arm to fall.

On that arm, from one spot, numerous symbols continuously emerged, rapidly encroaching on the surface of the arm, eventually completely enveloping it.

At this moment, Takuno casually said, "I never said that I only made one Shadow Clone earlier."

Earlier, when he was bombarding Obito with Ninjutsu to attract everyone's attention, it wasn't just to adjust the position for releasing the Wind Release: Vacuum Serial Waves, but also for his Shadow Clone to use Earth Release to move onto the Gedo Statue without being noticed.

The Gedo Statue was simply too large; fully enveloping it with Sealing Jutsu would be very difficult and take a very long time, but if it was just one arm, then... it was still large.

But it was within his manageable range!

"What is this?" Obito also noticed the symbols.

Suddenly, the giant arm, dozens of meters long, transformed into a white mist and dissipated, and corresponding to this, a giant scroll fell from the sky, landing in the hands of Takuno's Shadow Clone who was standing on the Gedo Statue's shoulder.

"Tsk, I originally wanted a whole strange creature, but it seems I'll just have to settle for one arm now," Takuno's Shadow Clone said with a smile.

Obito narrowed his eyes, and his body rushed towards Takuno's Shadow Clone, his target being... the giant Sealing Scroll in his hand!

Takuno's Shadow Clone yawned, seemingly indifferent to Obito's actions, and even tossed the giant scroll into the sky.

Although it was a bit strange, Obito still looked in that direction, wanting to seize the scroll.

But, at this moment, the scroll disappeared from his sight.

Immediately, Obito paused there, hearing the scoff of Takuno's Shadow Clone, and then saw him dissolve into a puff of white smoke.

"Summoning Jutsu!" Obito looked at Takuno's main body and said.

"That's right, you're not the only one who can use Space-Time Ninjutsu," Takuno said with a shrug, "Although this Ninjutsu isn't very useful in combat, it is indeed Space-Time Ninjutsu!"

"It seems you were one step ahead," Obito was very annoyed at this moment, but having been outsmarted, he could only suppress his anger and speak calmly.

"Is that so? But I originally wanted the entire Gedo Statue, yet you forced me to only take a small part," Takuno's tone also revealed dissatisfaction.

He... was, of course, lying; he knew from the beginning that he couldn't get the complete Gedo Statue, so he hadn't expected it and naturally had nothing to be disappointed about.

Of course, if the opponent really hadn't shown up and he had a real chance to obtain the complete Gedo Statue, he would absolutely not have held back!

After hearing Takuno's words, Obito's expression finally improved significantly; at least he had prevented the opponent, hadn't he?

Moreover, he looked at the Gedo Statue, which was missing an arm; it could naturally regenerate, and the main body was still here, so the opponent only took a small part, so the problem... was not big.

Obito comforted himself inwardly.

At this moment, Takuno looked at Nagato and Konan on the other side and said, "The agreement has been fulfilled, even though I didn't get the complete Gedo Statue, it's not your problem."

Hearing this, Nagato and Konan both couldn't help but look at Takuno.

Although the opponent had attacked them before, they suddenly couldn't dislike him anymore.

Moreover, Nagato recalled his shock when he was found underground by the opponent's Shadow Clone; he had thought the opponent was blaming them for Obito's actions.

However, he wasn't; the opponent just wanted him to use his Rinnegan to separate the Gedo Statue's arm from the shoulder blade; with Obito present, he couldn't get the Gedo Statue, so he decided to get an arm.

The Gedo Statue's defense made Takuno a bit tricky, so he could only approach Nagato, who had summoned the Gedo Statue.

As for those vacuum serial waves, they were actually just a demonstration for Obito; in reality, Nagato was helping to break off the Gedo Statue's arm!

Nagato had already agreed to give the entire Gedo Statue to Takuno, so this favor was just a matter of course.

Konan recalled the scenes she had witnessed; even the one using Space-Time Ninjutsu was deceived, so it seemed understandable that she was tricked by the opponent's Water Release Shadow Clone.

"Well then, goodbye," Takuno chuckled, and his body also turned into a puff of white smoke and disappeared from the spot.

He did not use the Body Flicker Technique, so this was still the Summoning Jutsu.

Obito watched this scene, his eyes cold; if the opponent hadn't used the Summoning Jutsu to leave, the surrounding White Zetsu would have definitely been able to follow and investigate his information.

But now, finding this mysterious person again would be a bit troublesome.

Obito pondered the Ninjutsu Takuno had used; shuriken Shadow Clone Jutsu was a Leaf Ninjutsu, but... Water Prison Technique was a Kirigakure Ninjutsu.

Coupled with the opponent's apparent habit of collecting Ninjutsu, it seemed difficult to determine his origin based solely on Ninjutsu.

He could only pay a little more attention to the Leaf and Kirigakure.

Obito thought, then he looked at Nagato and Konan, sensing the vigilance in their eyes, and cursed Takuno again inwardly.

But there was no choice; even if they didn't like him, he still had to reach a cooperation agreement with them!
