Chapter 1825: Uchiha Obito, having learned the truth, and the cunning fox's heart-piercing scheme

The Mortal Blade struck.

This fierce blow successfully severed Obito's arm, which was riddled with Hashirama cells.

Black Zetsu, terrified, scrambled to escape.

As he retreated, he had intended to take Obito's Mangekyo Sharingan with him, but unfortunately... the opponent's blade momentum did not falter.

It struck toward his face.

Faced with this, Black Zetsu hurriedly withdrew.

He dared not harbor any obsession.

"So close... this blade is too terrifying, even more so than the ninja tools of the Sage of Six Paths... Damn it, where did they get this from..."

While retreating.

Black Zetsu saw the arm made of Hashirama cells, with its immense vitality, wither away instantly.

A chill ran down his spine.

If he had been even a moment later.

He would have been completely finished!

However, thinking about it now... White Zetsu should be searching for the other Rinnegan that Uchiha Obito had hidden.

He only needed to retreat.

Thinking of this, White Zetsu couldn't help but snicker.

After Black Zetsu retreated.

Uchiha Obito collapsed to the ground like a broken ragdoll.

His stamina was completely exhausted.

A significant portion of his chakra had also been drained.

He was a total failure.

However, just as Obito prepared to face death, a strange voice came from beside him.

"Do you wish to make amends for this world?"

"Make amends for what? I have nothing to say... just kill me!"

"Hehe... it seems you still don't understand even now. Uchiha Madara... did the exact same thing to you as he did to Nagato."

"Hmm?"

Uchiha Obito looked at the woman with fox tails.

She giggled: "You still don't get it? How he manipulated Nagato... don't you understand? And the curse seal on your heart. Also, why did Rin happen to appear in the middle of the Mist Ninja's encirclement so conveniently?"

(Note: The source text repeats the numbering/content slightly; continuing as written.)

You can't possibly not know that the Mist Ninja at that time were already being manipulated by Madara...

Yes, hatred made you forget everything.

Just as Nagato's Yahiko died before his eyes, if one's beloved dies before them, it is indeed desperate enough... The Uchiha clan, when subjected to immense trauma.

Their eyes secrete a powerful, special chakra.

Which then directly awakens the tomoe.

And you, as a genius among geniuses, directly awakened the Mangekyo.

And because of that... you lived until now. Think about it... what is so special about you?

Is it because you liked helping old ladies cross the street?

Or because you had a crush on a girl and never spoke of it...

Wake up, and look at how Uchiha Madara evaluated you..."

Saying this, Yae Miko projected the conversation between Madara and Obito.

As the peripheral vision of the man on the ground.

Saw Kakashi pierce Rin's body, and at the same time... Madara spoke that line about choosing the same method to cancel the curse seal.

He finally awakened to the truth.

Everything was so cruel.

"Cough... Madara... you bastard... cough..."

He vomited blood while crawling up.

At this moment, Mo Na's healing spell descended.

It immediately eased Obito's injuries, and she said: "You were right not to choose to reclaim the Mangekyo. In reality... Black Zetsu wouldn't have let you reclaim it either."

"Because... a pair of Mangekyo plus Hashirama's cells."

"Very likely would have created a second pair of Rinnegan."

"So, he was very happy to see it."

"Kakashi is carrying your eye... now I have a proposal. Do you want to restore your power?"

"You should know... we have conditions for helping you take revenge..."

"What are the conditions?"

"Resurrect some people, and at the same time... help us kill the true mastermind!" ===== CHAPTER 1827 =====
