When Jiraiya began formally teaching Hakuto, he truly came to understand the meaning of genius.
Her initial clumsiness clearly showed that she was new to sealing techniques. Yet no matter how he explained, she grasped every concept instantly. In a short time, she had nearly mastered all the sealing techniques he taught. Even more impressively, she started independently deciphering deeper Sealing Techniques. This talent surpassed even Minato, whom he had once mentored.
As for Naruto… yes, his teacher was Kakashi.
Fully immersed in studying Sealing Techniques, Hakuto quickly shifted her focus to Moon in the Well. She closed her eyes in deep contemplation, unaware even when Obito entered the Kamui dimension.
Obito observed Hakuto closely, his eyes flashing with admiration and surprise. No wonder she was descended from two legendary figures. Brought into an unfamiliar space, she neither screamed nor gave in to despair. Instead, she calmly analyzed the situation, conserving her energy to the fullest.
But all of this was in vain. Obito had absolute confidence in his Kamui dimension. No one who entered had ever left, and no outsider could ever find this place. After watching briefly, he quietly vanished.
Suddenly, Hakuto's eyes flew open, shining with brilliance. The crescent moon on her forehead began to grow round. As the full moon formed, the three-comma Sharingan within her pupils started to spin. Moments later, a purple spiral-patterned Rinnegan fully emerged in her eyes.
Without pausing to celebrate, Hakuto activated otsutsuki Teleportation as soon as the Rinnegan emerged. A black gate materialized before her, and she leaped inside, vanishing completely from the Kamui dimension.
Meanwhile, Obito, pinned to the ground by Anya's attack, had already secretly retrieved his treasured Sharingan. If Anya attempted a killing blow, he would immediately use Izanagi to resurrect himself and return to the Kamui dimension. Only there could he ensure escape. Later, he'd have to study why his Intangibility ability had failed against Anya.
Unexpectedly, Anya dispersed his murderous intent, returned his sword to its sheath, and even withdrew the blade piercing Obito's body. Calmly, he said, "Activate your dojutsu. I want to enter your Mangekyō space."
"What?" Obito couldn't believe his ears. Was this really happening? Trapped as he was, could such good fortune really come his way?
Anya, expressionless, replied, "I don't repeat myself."
Not caring whether Anya's words were genuine, Obito couldn't let this opportunity slip away.
Space trembled. A suction force spiraled from his lone eye, twisting the air as it targeted Anya. In an instant, his entire body was completely pulled into the Kamui dimension.
"Actually real… and he didn't resist at all." Even Obito, ever cautious, was astonished. Had he lost his mind? Or did he actually believe he could escape from inside?
Obito's lone eye flickered with uncertainty. Today had brought far too many surprises. He felt utterly powerless over the situation. Anya's power was far more terrifying than he'd imagined. If even the Kamui dimension couldn't imprison him, then only the true revival of *that person* could produce someone worthy of facing Anya.
Anya entered the Kamui dimension and quickly sensed its space. Though not large, it was quite practical — capable of containing almost anything while remaining extremely sealed. Anyone trapped here would starvе to death without Obitо doing a thing.
Anya sat cross-legged on the ground, her eyes transforming into [Mangekyō]. As blade-like patterns rotated within her pupils, time in this space began rapidly reversing, revealing a series of scenes that had previously occurred. Her Sage Chakra started consuming violently. Finally, Hakuto's figure appeared inside this space, and everything that happened became clearly visible.
Now I see. No wonder Hakuto could leave here. Anya relaxed once she understood what had happened. It seemed leaving a backdoor had been the right choice.
Although she had applied the "Moon in the Well" seal on Hakuto, Anya hadn't completely locked away her Rinnegan, instead leaving an opening. Once Hakuto experienced strong emotional fluctuations, the Moon in the Well wouldn't just stop sealing — it would activate instead, granting Hakuto access to six paths-level power.
Never did I expect that Hakuto could find that sealing loophole through her own efforts and successfully escape. This could only be described as an unforeseen advantage.
Now that the complete truth had become clear, Anya's silhouette blurred and disappeared from the Kamui dimension.
In the outside world before Obito, the moment Anya had just been absorbed into the Kamui reappeared at the original spot, as if what just happened was nothing but an illusion.
The Kamui space has been broken. This person definitely has a way to escape. At this moment, Obito no longer harbored any hope (however slim), wanting nothing more than to get as far away from Anya as possible.
Rather than killing intent, Anya now showed complete indifference. She asked casually, "Did you collect Itachi's corpse?"
Obito carefully responded, "Yes."
"Good." Anya tossed over the Three-Tails' container in her hand. "Catch it. Give his corpse to me."
Obito couldn't believe the long-lost Three-Tails had just fallen into his hands so easily. He observed it with his Sharingan, confirming its authenticity before taking a deep breath and saying, "I can't do it."
Anya's eyes narrowed.
Obito hurriedly forced a bitter smile and continued, "Itachi's body was placed right here. From that slash you delivered earlier, there might not even be ashes left."
No body found… How am I supposed to explain this to Miss Mikoto? Anya's expression darkened.
"However, I won't just take your Three-Tails for free," Obito said, producing a pair of eyes in his hand. "Let me exchange this for Itachi's [Mangekyō]."
At least the eyes remained intact. Good. There shouldn't be issues performing the Impure World Reincarnation. If Miss Mikoto became overly grief-stricken, I'd have to trouble the Serpent Master then.
Thinking along those lines, Anya reached out and took them without emotion, stating indifferently, "You were the one who initially broke the peace agreement. Actually, I never regarded you as significant at all. Regardless of your purposes, none will come to pass. Let that person appear soon; I've waited for him a very long time."
After uttering these words, Anya vanished from the spot.
Obito gritted his teeth tightly together. So from the beginning, you already knew I wasn't him. No wonder Madara warned me about you. Perhaps even Madara himself hadn't expected you'd progress to this current realm.
One thing you said is right. The plan does need some adjustments. It's time to create an opportunity to draw him out. I won't get my chance until the two of you go at it head-to-head. Currently, the Akatsuki Organization has already captured seven Tailed Beasts. Once all nine are gathered, I'll carry out the final ritual—severing the world's karma once and for all.
Obito gazed toward Konoha. Pain should already be on his way there by now. As for the Eight-Tails? He gave a low chuckle. There was a perfect candidate for that—Killer B.
