Not even a scratch was left on his skin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nani?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A startled cry echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hurry, Obito opened the swirling distortion of Kamui in plain view, dragging the Cloud shinobi he'd been gripping with his left hand into the warped space.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newcomer roared, lunging again with his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's eyes shifted back to their inky hue as he turned, expression unmoved. He extended his palm calmly to meet the strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once more, the blade bit into his hand but failed to cut through. Obito's fingers snapped shut, pinching the sword's edge as if it were nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The white-haired young man strained with both hands on the hilt, but Obito's grip was unyielding. The weapon refused to budge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch… Earth Release hardening technique…?\" the youth muttered, recognizing the unnatural toughness. Sparks of blue chakra began flickering across his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then I'll counter with Lightning Release—basic shinobi knowledge.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet before he could channel lightning chakra into his blade, something else filled his vision: a pitch-black sole.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gahhh—!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pain exploded across his face. The kick launched him backward, ripping the sword from his grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His body smashed into a wall with a thunderous bang, stone and dust collapsing around him. He crashed through and tumbled into the rubble beyond.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cough—cough—haaah…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound of hacking breaths followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Damn… that guy… way too strong…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The youth staggered to his feet, clutching his face. Blood dripped from his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bridge of my nose is broken… it hurts so bad… my head's spinning…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He swayed, eyes dazed, yet still forced himself upright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next second, the young man suddenly stiffened. When he looked up, he saw the masked man's gaze fixed directly on him...calm, faint, and utterly unreadable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito, however, was the one who faltered for a moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>White hair. Dark skin. Tattoos on his shoulders—\"雷\" (Lightning) on the right, \"水\" (cloud) on the left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No way… It's you. The future Fifth Raikage, Darui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's eyes narrowed slightly. \"No wonder you looked familiar.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Darui froze under that stare, sweat running down his temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don't move… don't move…!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito, meanwhile, fell into thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I've already turned a future Mizukage into one of my tools… should I do the same with this one?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as his eyes drifted back to Darui...rigid, nervous, and already drenched in cold sweat Obito quickly dismissed the idea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Forget it. This guy looks dumb. And worse he's ugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smirked under the mask. Think about it: the subordinates I've collected so far, every one of them is at least pleasant to look at.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That's a good standard. Why ruin it now? Having some ugly fool hanging around in front of me all day would just piss me off.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No. From here on, only eye-catchers qualify.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And don't get the wrong idea... I'm definitely not a racist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, something caught his attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Speaking of… this blonde chick isn't bad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"—Cloud Rising Dragon!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sharp cry rang out as a blonde kunoichi with an impressive figure came flying at him like a cannonball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito tilted his body slightly to the side, effortlessly dodging. His hand shot out, seizing her arm, and with a twist and a heave\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph…!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was thrown clean through the air. Yet her reflexes were sharp; she flipped midair, landed lightly on her feet, and slid back several meters before stopping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Darui, that wasn't cool at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman straightened her back, her sharp eyes cutting toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Samui… ah…\" Darui gave a bitter smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Be careful,\" he warned. \"He's strong.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know. Anyone daring enough to invade Kumogakure isn't a simple opponent.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samui's gaze locked on Obito, calm yet burning with defiance. \"But still… the way he looks at me is annoying. Not cool at all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito coughed lightly, averting his eyes. He had to admit...her words weren't wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze had, indeed, been distracted for a moment by the grand spectacle of the kunoichi's chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem… this young lady, mind telling me your age?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito coughed lightly, trying to mask his moment of embarrassment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I've got nothing to say to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samui's voice was cold. She leapt forward, blade in hand, and slashed in a rapid backhand arc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"—Cloud-Style: Swift Cut!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her sword light roared toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's lips curled into a faint smile. He lifted the broad blade he'd stolen from Darui.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang! Clang! Clang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Steel clashed again and again as he parried each strike, his movements calm and precise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, in the opening between her slashes, Obito flicked his weapon upward, knocking Samui's short sword from her grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In an instant, the heavy blade pressed against her shoulder, its edge kissing the side of her neck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Now,\" Obito said smoothly, \"can you tell me your age?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samui's jaw tightened. She felt the cold weight of steel grazing her skin. At last, through clenched teeth, she spat:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fifteen.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's eyebrows shot up beneath the mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wait… fifteen?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that scale? That kind of… grandeur? At her age?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His mind moved in a wrong direction. That's some absurd, next-level talent right there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Massive talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahem… girl, are you interested in...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was already halfway into spinning some shameless line, ready to fool and abduct her, when his expression suddenly shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boom!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A firework lit up the night sky in the distance brilliant, urgent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's pupils narrowed. That was the distress signal he'd arranged with Terumi Mei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without another word, he released the blade and vanished in a flicker.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clang~\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The broadsword slipped from his grip and crashed to the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hoo…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samui let out a breath she hadn't realized she was holding. Her shoulders loosened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Whew. Saved.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind her, Darui finally allowed himself to exhale, relief etched across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You… you're really not cool at all. You didn't help me just now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Samui's tone was icy as her eyes flicked toward Darui, who had already slouched back into his usual lazy posture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This guy hadn't moved an inch the whole time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't give me a hard time,\" Darui muttered with a wry smile. \"My head's still spinning. I can barely stand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then his gaze narrowed slightly. \"By the way… why did that masked guy suddenly leave?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sa… who knows…\" Samui exhaled, still unsettled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, on the other side\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scenery warped as Obito flickered through space with Flying Thunder God. In the next instant, the world in front of him erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A massive fireball surged toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito reacted instantly. He swept Terumi Mei into his arms and vanished again, the blazing inferno slamming into the spot they'd just vacated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames engulfed the area, the explosion rattling buildings as firestorms roared across the night. For a moment, the darkness of Kumogakure was lit like day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the rooftop of a nearby structure, Obito materialized. He glanced down at Mei, still in his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You okay?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It's not serious,\" Mei replied, panting softly, her head leaning against his shoulder. \"My chakra's just drained. I can't move properly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's fine,\" Obito said evenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…Sorry. I didn't manage to destroy the intel building. In the end, I had to trouble you to save me…\" Mei's voice was low with regret.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It doesn't matter.\" Obito shook his head, his gaze shifting toward the source of the fireball. His eyes narrowed slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After all, your opponent isn't something so simple…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Roooaaar!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From within the flames, a monstrous silhouette emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A colossal cat wreathed in blue chakra fire stood towering against the night. Its twin tails lashed like whips, scattering sparks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twin eyes...one golden, one blue, gleamed like yin and yang, burning with savage fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Two-Tails, Matatabi, roared into the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Obito's Sharingan reflected the beast's form, surprise flickering in his gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"…So it's lost control, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>--------------------------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Support me at patreon.com\u002FArthorain and read upto 50 Advanced Chapters and Exclusive R-18 Content!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>--------------------------------------\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Update schedule: 7 chapters\u002Fweek\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every 300 power stones = 1 Extra Chapter\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By voting with [power stones], you can easily get double the number of chapters.\u003C\u002Fp>",1380,"2026-06-05T20:19:17.122Z",1,"novelbin.me","7ccedfe066aecdac8ea7d55b00ed555afc24562d7584e092494403e648cd988d","naruto-reborn-as-uchiha-obito-chapter-104","naruto-reborn-as-uchiha-obito-chapter-102",238,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fnaruto-reborn-as-uchiha-obito-cover.jpg"]
