Nagato was the first to stand up and walk towards the battle venue, and Obito followed closely behind him.
The appearance of the contestants made the atmosphere in the venue even more lively.
Many viewers were comparing the two's strength and discussing who would win and take the championship.
"It's a battle without any suspense." Huang Tu believes that Nagato will definitely win, and will win easily.
Huang Tu watched all the knockout rounds of the Youth Martial Arts Tournament in full.
In his mind, the strength ranking of the Youth Martial Arts Tournament players should be Nagato first, Might Guy second, and Sand Crab third.
Among the rest, Kakashi might be ranked fourth, but it's hard to say about the others.
For example, if Obito, who entered the finals, met Hoshigaki Kisame who could restrain him, he would most likely be eliminated by Hoshigaki Kisame.
In the semi-finals, Obito's victory over Shisui was quite narrow, which shows that the strength of both sides is almost the same.
"When Obito fought Nagato, sometimes being too lucky isn't always a good thing." Asuma mourned for Obito in his heart for a second.
When drawing lots, Obito drew a good lot, which allowed him to advance to the quarterfinals. Then his opponents in the quarterfinals and semi-finals were also evenly matched. Part of luck and part of strength allowed Obito to successfully enter the finals.
But in the following final, no matter how lucky Obito was, it was useless because Nagato had absolute overwhelming strength.
Asuma felt that Obito would become a background second place, beaten by the first place and then discussed as not as good as the top four contestants.
Asuma would rather be in the top eight than be in second place.
"No matter what, he is the second one and can customize a ninjutsu from the ninja master Sosuke." Bingzu Leitong said with some envy.
He didn't even make it to the knockout rounds, so he was really just here to take the exam.
"I didn't expect that Obito actually made it to the finals. Doesn't this make me look a bit bad?" Yahiko joked to himself.
At the beginning of the elimination round, he chatted with Obito and said that entering the finals would greatly increase his fame. As a result, Obito really entered the finals, while Yahiko was eliminated in the first round.
"There's no way. The person you met is too strong. Even if Uchiha Obito met him, he would most likely be eliminated. Apart from Nagato, perhaps only Might Guy has a chance to defeat him." Konan comforted.
Yahiko's luck was average. In the first round, he met Scorpion, a ruthless guy whose overall strength ranked among the top three.
"No matter what, losing is losing." Yahiko smiled indifferently and looked towards the battle field.
At this time, Nagato and Obito have already taken their positions and the battle is about to begin.
"Charizard, I made such a great sacrifice yesterday, so you must give me more strength." Obito took a deep breath, hoping that today's Charizard could maintain the momentum that it had when it beat him yesterday.
Obito still has some self-awareness. It is pure dream for him to defeat Nagato with his little Fire Release ability. It is impossible to achieve even if he performs beyond his normal level.
If he wants to win, he can only cooperate with Charizard tacitly and catch Nagato off guard because he has no idea of Charizard's information.
"The battle begins!" The Ninja referee shouted when he saw that both of them were ready.
"The art of spiritual communication!"
As soon as the referee finished speaking, Obito, without any hesitation, immediately formed hand seals and slapped the ground to use summoning techniques.
Nagato is too strong, and he may not be able to withstand Nagato's attack alone.
Bang!
White smoke flashed, and the figure of the fire-breathing dragon appeared from it.
"Water Style: Great Waterfall Technique!"
After watching several of Obito's battles, Nagato knew that Obito's strength was Fire Style, so he chose Water Style, which was a ninjutsu that could restrain Fire Style, as his first ninjutsu.
A huge water ball quickly formed in front of Nagato and attacked Obito and the summoned Charizard.
Whoosh!
Charizard suppressed the urge to give Obito his first blast of fire and quickly flapped its wings to fly up.
Whoosh!
Obito, who had activated his Sharingan, also used the instant body movement technique to dodge in time.
"There is actually a summoned beast that has never been summoned." Hanzo was a little surprised.
Obito's victory in advancing to the finals was narrow. He didn't expect that Obito could hide a summoning beast. He hid it so well that isn't he afraid of hiding it in the audience seats?
"Could it be that he is actually hiding his strength?" Hanzo became interested.
I thought Nagato would easily crush Obito to win the championship, but it seems that Obito is not as simple as he looks.
"All things are attracted by the sky!"
Although Nagato was a little surprised by the appearance of Charizard, he did not have too much emotional fluctuations because of it. He stretched out his right hand and released gravity towards Obito.
In his perception, Charizard's strength is not as good as Obito's, so there is no need to worry too much about it.
"This is so unreasonable." Obito complained in his heart as he felt his body speeding forward uncontrollably.
Compared to Nagato's Shinra Tensei and Banko Tenin, his fire-style ninjutsu seemed like a joke.
However, Obito had anticipated this situation. When the battle began, he immediately concentrated his breathing to the extreme so that he could enter the Flame Breathing Chakra mode at any time.
"Fire Style: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"
When he was about to be sucked in front of Nagato, Obito entered the Flame Breathing Chakra Mode and spit out two high-temperature fire dragons in succession.
Whoosh!
The high-temperature orange-yellow fire dragon rushed straight towards Nagato under Obito's control.
In previous battles, Obito had entered the Flame Breathing Chakra Mode and demonstrated the Unlimited Fire Style, so Nagato had always been on guard.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Nagato's Rinnegan shook violently, and a powerful repulsive force erupted with him as the center, instantly sending the two fire dragons and Obito flying.
At this moment, the fire-breathing dragon in the flying sky moved.
Before the battle began, Obito had discussed the battle plan with it. As long as Nagato used Shinra Tensei, Charizard would attack Nagato at all costs to test the cooling time of Shinra Tensei.
"Blade of Air!"
Charizard chose the fastest wind jutsu and swung several sharp blades at Nagato that were sharp enough to tear the air apart.
"Yang Breathing, full concentration!"
Nagato Rinnegan also observed the incoming attack and concentrated his breathing to strengthen his body, then burst out with chakra and flashed his body at an extremely fast speed, perfectly avoiding the wind blade and creating some distance between himself and Charizard.
'Jet of flame!'
The Charizard condensed its chakra and opened its mouth to spit out a thick column of fire.
Milotic and Nohara Rin fell in the round of 16. If it became the first, even the arrogant Milotic would look at it with admiration.
"When did Obito contract such a powerful summoning beast?" Asuma was puzzled.
He had never seen Obito summon Charizard, and he didn't expect that Obito actually had a powerful summoning beast that could fly.
"Water Style: Water Formation Pillar!"
Nagato pulled away and quickly formed hand seals, spraying a large amount of water from his mouth to extinguish Charizard's fire column. The huge impact force of the water column made it impossible for Charizard to maintain a good flying posture, and it looked shaky.
Swoosh!
At this time, Obito quietly went around to the side of Nagato, gathered chakra in his palm and threw a flaming spear at Nagato.
"Shinra Tensei!"
The powerful repulsive force erupted again, directly knocking Obito's fire spear away.
"What a sharp observation, but I still didn't catch up, exactly eight seconds." Obito exhaled and forced himself to calm down.
The pressure that Nagato brought to him was completely different from that of Might Guy, not only because Nagato was stronger than Might Guy, but also because Nagato's methods were much more fancy than Might Guy's.
There is nothing much to say about Obito's battle with Might Guy. He just used his brute force to break his fire escape technique and crushed him with physical skills.
Nagato is different. He has a high level of proficiency in various nature changes, keen observation skills, and instant and powerful ninjutsu.
It seems that Nagato has everything that Obito has, but the most important thing is that Obito doesn't have what Nagato has, which is very uncomfortable.
"Fire Dragon Flame Bomb!"
With the help of the Flame Breathing Chakra mode, Obito spewed out large amounts of flames at a very fast speed.
Although Fire Dragon Flame Bomb was his second most chakra-consuming ninjutsu, Obito had no choice at the moment.
Because in addition to Shinra Tensei's ability to deflect attacks, Nagato also has keen observation skills and a fast speed. In order to force Nagato to reveal the true cooldown time of Shinra Tensei, one must use ninjutsu that is difficult for Nagato to dodge.
Compared to other fire techniques, the Fire Dragon Flame Bomb has the advantage of a large range, and can be split into multiple flames to block the enemy's position from multiple directions.
"Two, three..."
While attacking, Obito silently counted the time when Nagato last used Shinra Tensei.
Finding out the true cooldown time of Shinra Tensei is the basis for victory. Otherwise, how can you win if the attack that consumes a lot of chakra is bounced off?
'Hot wind!'
After adjusting its body, Charizard took a deep breath of air and exhaled a whirlwind of fire, further blocking Nagato's space to dodge.
"Sealing technique, suction seal!"
Nagato stretched out his hands calmly and formed an invisible shield around him.
This is the new ability of the Rinnegan that he realized after the battle with Might Guy. After testing, it was found that it can absorb ninjutsu, and all ninjutsu, whether it is fire attribute ninjutsu, lightning attribute, or water attribute, all can be absorbed by his sealing seal.
Obito could only watch helplessly as his flames disappeared into thin air, as if they had never appeared.
"No, what kind of ninjutsu is this? How can he hide another ability in the finals?" Obito complained in his heart.
Originally thought that everything would be fine once the cooling time of Shinra Tensei was tested, however, before the cooling time of Shinra Tensei was tested, Nagato displayed another incredible ability.
Obito wants to ask Immortal Mu Yue to take over and fight for him, because someone is cheating and he can't win without cheating.
Nagato was deflecting and invalidating ninjutsu, and it was hard for Obito to imagine how he could defeat Nagato when he could only create fire in various ways.
"There is actually a hidden ability." Kakashi frowned slightly.
Obito's chances of winning against Nagato were already very low, and with a new ability that is suspected to be able to eliminate ninjutsu, Obito's chances of winning are infinitely close to zero.
Kakashi carefully recalled several of Nagato's battles and found it reasonable that Nagato was useless before.
The two strongest ninjas Nagato has ever encountered are Sasori and Might Guy. One of them is a puppeteer and the other is a pure physical ninja. Nagato's ability to eliminate ninjutsu is completely useless.
"No, Xiaolin and Teacher Muyue are still watching from above, and Akai is also waiting for my good news."
Obito concentrated a large amount of chakra into his fist and punched Nagato at high speed.
Even if the enemy is very strong, overwhelmingly powerful, he must fight to the last moment. Otherwise, he would be letting Mu Yue down and would not be worthy of Might Guy's kindness.
Since Nagato can make ninjutsu ineffective, he will use fire ninjutsu!
"Fire Style: Flame Fist!"
Whoosh!
The fist containing high-temperature compressed flames smashed towards Nagato with a whistling sound of flames.
Nagato still maintained the Hungry Ghost Realm absorption shield.
Ninjutsu, with the word "Nin" in the front, mainly relies on the chakra that changes its nature.
The flames on Obito's fist were constantly absorbed by the Hungry Ghost Shield, but Obito's fist easily passed through the transparent shield and continued to smash towards Nagato.
Bang!
Nagato blocked it with his palm, but was knocked back several meters.
Although Nagato is older than Obito, he had not practiced systematically and had not fully exercised his body before meeting Mu Yue.
Obito has practiced breathing techniques for many years and has been exercising regularly. He is now in the Flame Breathing Chakra mode and his strength far exceeds that of Nagato.
Nagato was stunned. He didn't expect Obito's physical skills to be so strong. When he watched Obito's previous battles, he didn't have this feeling at all.
"Chance!"
Obito's eyes lit up and he shouted, rushing forward quickly and kicking out with a whirlwind kick.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Bang!
The powerful repulsive force hit Obito, and this time Nagato used more chakra, directly knocking Obito into the wall at the edge of the venue.
But Obito didn't care, his eyes were fixed on the Charizard that was quickly attacking Nagato.
Nagato's Shinra Tensei was completely within Obito's expectations, because when he kicked out the whirlwind kick, eight seconds had passed since Nagato last used Shinra Tensei, so Nagato could definitely use Shinra Tensei to repel him.
Obito's shout was not to increase his own momentum, but to remind Charizard.
Charizard injected most of its body's strength into its claws. The orange-yellow claws became darker in color, and it flapped its wings rapidly, exploding its speed to the extreme.
"Dragon Claw!"
Nagato's excellent perception allowed him to immediately detect the Charizard that was trying to launch a sneak attack, and he burst out his chakra and quickly retreated.
But as Charizard accelerated, the distance between Nagato and Charizard continued to shorten.
"Two, three..." Obito was still counting the cooling of Nagato Shinra Tensei in his heart.
"five."
When Obito counted to five in his mind, Charizard's claws were only one centimeter away from Nagato.
"Shinra Tensei!"
The repulsive force erupted again with Nagato as the center, and Charizard could only watch helplessly as its sharp claws stopped one centimeter away and could not move forward any further.
Charizard only felt a huge invisible force squeezing it. Even if Charizard burst out with all its strength without any reservation, it could not stay for even one more second.
Bang!!
The Charizard retreated violently and slammed to the ground, leaving a hole in the ground.
"Is the real cooling time five seconds?" Obito, who got up and rushed over, kept thinking in his mind.
Given Might Guy's previous history of being deceived, Obito couldn't be sure that this was the real cooling time for Nagato Shinra Tensei.
"Never mind, just treat it as five seconds!" Obito thought through gritted teeth.
For Obito, there are only two results for the next direct action. If the cooling time of Shinra Tensei is really five seconds, then Obito has a small chance of winning.
If it was Nagato who passed on the wrong information again, and the actual cooldown time of Shinra Tensei was less than five seconds, Obito would lose regardless of whether he knew the correct cooldown time or not.
Even a difference of one second makes a huge difference to Obito at this moment.
So Obito felt that there was no need to continue testing, and just treated Shinra Tensei as a five-second cooldown.
"Shadow Clone Technique!"
Nagato formed a seal and released two shadow clones.
"Fire Style: Head Hard Work!"
"Wind Style: Suppress!"
Two of the shadow clones, one created a sea of fire and the other created a storm. The wind helped the fire and soon created a large sea of fire.
The Charizard endured the pain and flapped its wings quickly to fly up, increasing its flying distance.
Obito originally wanted to sit on the Charizard, but then he remembered that Nagato still had many long-range ninjutsu. If they and the dragon stayed in the sky together, they would just become sitting ducks. So he changed his mind, continuously creating flames around his body to resist the sea of fire, and then ran towards Nagato.
"Lightning Release: Pseudo Darkness!"
Nagato quickly formed hand seals and spit out high-voltage lightning towards Obito who was constantly moving in the sea of fire.
"Blade of Air!"
The Charizard in the sky swung out wind blades to help Obito block.
Although the wind blade released by Charizard at that angle was unable to block Nagato's powerful Lightning Release, it gave Obito a chance to dodge.
After observing the incoming lightning with the Sharingan, Obito quickly dodged and continued to run towards Nagato.
"All things are attracted by the sky!"
Nagato stretched out his right hand towards Obito who was approaching. A huge gravitational force exploded, and Obito's body instantly rushed towards Nagato uncontrollably.
At the same time, the shadow clone formed hand seals again and prepared to use ninjutsu to attack Obito who was sucked in.
"Great Flame Ring·Flame Emperor Modified!"
Obito released all his chakra without hesitation, and flames continued to burn around him.
Since Entei's hit rate was only slightly better than that of Fireball, in order to increase the hit rate, Obito thought of an extreme development direction - self-destruction.
With the various blessings of Breath of Fire, he used chakra to protect his body. Although he would still be injured, he would not be seriously injured by the explosion at close range.
Moreover, there is currently no such type of ninjutsu in the ninja world, and Obito feels that it will definitely catch the enemy off guard.
Nagato sensed the restless power in Obito, stopped the Tensho Tensho, and created an absorbing shield.
Boom! !
Obito turned into a fireball and suddenly exploded, creating a huge hole on the spot. High-temperature flames spread in all directions along with the huge explosion impact.
Bang Bang!
The two clones of Nagato were injured and disappeared directly. Nagato's main body was not injured under the protection of the absorption shield, but he secreted some sweat due to the influence of the heat flow.
Nagato glanced at Obito. Although he was the user of the technique, Obito looked much worse than him at this moment. His clothes were tattered and his body was covered with a lot of black ash.
Swish! !
Several wind blades quickly attacked Nagato.
"Shinra Tensei!"
Nagato spread out his hands and the repulsive force surged in all directions, not only deflecting the incoming wind blades, but also forcing Obito who was nearby back.
"One, two." Obito counted silently in his mind, and continued to rush towards Nagato at an extremely fast speed.
"Lightning Release: Pseudo Darkness!"
Nagato retreated while forming hand seals and spitting out a lightning spear at Obito.
Charizard was flying in the sky at a very fast speed. Nagato found it difficult to hit it, so he targeted the injured Obito.
At this moment, the distance between Obito and Nagato was only four meters. Even though Obito could clearly see the lightning coming towards him with his Sharingan, he knew that he could not dodge it.
The distance between him and Nagato was too short, and Nagato was using Lightning Release.
"Dragon Claw!"
Just then, Charizard rushed straight to the ground, swinging its dark claws against the lightning.
Although he could use ninjutsu to interfere with Nagato, Nagato's lightning had already been used, and even if it was only a part of it, it was not something Obito could withstand now.
Due to the tremendous power of Pseudo-Darkness, Charizard kept retreating, and its claws also showed traces of burnt lightning.
"Four..."
Obito jumped over Charizard and swung his fire fist, but just as the fire fist was about to hit, Obito counted to five in his mind.
Bang!
The repulsive force exploded, and Obito flew backwards without any surprise.
"Ouch!"
The Charizard roared, the flames on its tail burning extremely hotly.
It flew into the sky, raised its uninjured paw, and flapped its wings at high speed, attacking Nagato.
"Wind Style: Suppress!"
The powerful storm blocked Charizard's advance, causing it to miss the cooldown of Shinra Tensei.
At this time, Obito got up again and continued to rush towards Nagato.
Charizard spewed a large amount of flames around Nagato to form a vortex, trying to restrict Nagato's movements.
But Nagato held up an absorption shield and took one step to absorb all the flames.
"Fire Style: Flame Impact!"
Obito used the last bit of his strength and chakra to set his body ablaze, trying to create an opportunity for Charizard to attack.
He is now injured and lacks chakra. On the other hand, Charizard is injured but stronger.
"It's time to end the battle." Nagato bent his legs and began to gather chakra.
He couldn't bear to watch Obito continue to struggle and get hurt, so he prepared to end the battle in one go.
"Shinra Tensei!"
When Nagato jumped to a height higher than Charizard's, he launched the Shinra Tensei, the same Shinra Tensei that he launched when Might Guy did.
Bang Bang!
Obito was overwhelmed by the powerful repulsive force, and the flying Charizard also fell to the ground at a high speed under the repulsive force.
Boom! !
The ground continued to shake and collapse, and even the walls at the edge of the venue were instantly reduced to ruins.
Under the protection of the Mu Yue barrier, the impact force did not affect the audience seats, but only turned the repaired battlefield into ruins again.
When Nagato fell to the ground, Obito wanted to stand up and continue fighting, but found it extremely difficult to even move his arms.
He turned to look at Charizard. Charizard's eyes had turned into circles and it seemed to have fainted.
"I still lost. I didn't seize that opportunity." Obito felt regretful.
Nagato actually revealed a flaw once, which was when he absorbed the Fire Style Ninjutsu. That was also the only time Obito touched Nagato in the entire battle.
"Second place is second place. Maybe I can customize a ninjutsu that surpasses Golden Skyline and The Sword of No Thought." Obito counseled himself optimistically.
After all, he had already lost. No matter how pessimistic he was, he could not change the reality of failure.
"Nagato wins!" the referee announced when he saw Obito lose his ability to fight.
