If this were a game, then Obito would be a newbie player with high-end equipment and top-tier gear.
And Guy is clearly a pro player using ordinary equipment, opening burst-type skills, and starting to show off his skills.
Logically speaking, with Obito's current state—one Mangekyo Sharingan, one Rinnegan, and the physical strength of a Ten Tails Jinchuriki—he should be able to see Guy's movements clearly and evade or counterattack.
But the reality is that Guy, having opened the Seven Gates, punched Obito in the face, kicked him in the chest, and finally, as he was just flying backward, added a Daytime Tiger.
In the anime, when Madara became the Ten Tails Jinchuriki, Guy, even with the Seven Gates open, couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes, and even Daytime Tiger couldn't hurt him at all. Only by opening the Eight Gates could he dance with Madara.
Obito's current embarrassing state, whether it's because the Ten Tails is underdeveloped or because he's really just bad, saw the tiger-shaped white shockwave completely engulf Obito, the enormous force truly landing on him. Obito, enduring this pressure, struggled to raise his arm and cover his mouth.
My chest ribs seem to be broken. I want to vomit blood but I don't dare to, I feel like what comes out will be a Tailed Beast.
"Such strong taijutsu, that guy actually has this level of power!"
The shocked Obito was blasted hundreds of meters away by the power of Daytime Tiger. Guy exited the Seven Gates state, looking exhausted.
Several people in the field with good eyesight could completely see Guy's movements. Among them, Kakashi understood his old friend's power and wasn't surprised. Shisui, Itachi, and Zuo Zhu felt a bit horrified. Melon Heads are terrifying!
Although Itachi had witnessed Guy defeat Kisame with Daytime Tiger last time, that was just Kisame. This one is the Ten Tails Jinchuriki, close to the Sage of Six Paths! Is training in taijutsu really this promising?
Zuo Zhu felt even more ashamed. He thought of Gan, Wen, and Cui, the three members of his clan. They seemed to have mastered the same power. With their Sharingan, they might be able to do even better than this Guy Sensei. How ignorant he was to think they were a disgrace before!
Naruto's family of three didn't have as good eyesight as them, but Naruto and Minato could capture Guy's movements through the powerful sensory abilities of Sage Mode. They also realized that even such a powerful attack hadn't caused fatal damage to Obito.
Tenten, Rock Lee, and Neji had a new understanding of Guy Sensei's power. Rock Lee felt that the future was full of hope. As long as he worked hard, he would definitely be as strong as Guy Sensei. If he had such power, he would definitely be able to defeat Neji!
And Neji felt a chill down his spine and immediately decided that he wouldn't spar with Rock Lee anymore. He had been feeling like he might have a bloody disaster recently. Sometimes a ninja's intuition isn't without reason. Neji initially thought it was because of the war, but now that he thought about it, he might be killed by Rock Lee opening the Eight Gates when he got a little too enthusiastic during a spar.
The most surprised was Yagura. He almost only saw blue steam coming from Guy's body, and then Obito was blasted away. Gaara and Ōnoki had gained some understanding of Guy in the previous battles, but Yagura finally knew how the previous generation of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist had fallen apart today.
Guy tried to calm his breathing and said firmly, "The power of the Seven Gates is far from enough. Today may be the day the Azure Fierce Beast disappears..."
"No, it hasn't reached that point yet." Minato stopped Guy's actions. He certainly knew what Guy wanted to do, to open the Eighth Gate at the cost of his life, to gain unimaginable power, perhaps enough to defeat Obito, but he wouldn't easily let Guy sacrifice himself like that.
"Guy, I understand your determination, but I still have super~ awesome moves that I haven't used yet, and even if we have to risk our lives, it should start with me, the Hokage."
Minato paused, imitating Guy's usual appearance, smiling and giving a thumbs up: "Guy, your Youth still has a long way to go!"
Guy was stunned. He thought only his father would say such things to him, only his disciples would practice the same Ninja Way as him, but now... was this... getting the Hokage's approval?
Ōnoki floated to Minato's side: "That's right, risking our lives to protect the village is the responsibility that we Shadow should take first. Now, to protect the entire Shinobi World, it's up to us Shadow to charge ahead."
Gaara and Yagura also stood beside Minato to express their attitude.
As everyone prepared for the next plan, an Iwa Ninja emerged from underground, just three or four meters away from the Shadow: "Are you all considering a final battle? Why not consider cooperating with me?"
"Kari? This is Impure World Reincarnation?" Ōnoki immediately recognized the Explosion Release ninja who had already sacrificed himself, "Orochimaru?"
The others immediately became vigilant, and Kushina and Naruto were ready to release chains to lock him down at any time.
"That's right, it's me." Orochimaru didn't hide it and directly admitted his identity.
Minato asked, "What are you doing here at this time?"
"Of course, I'm here to find you to cooperate and stop that madman." Orochimaru was indeed sincere in coming to discuss cooperation.
Having watched the battle remotely through the Impure World Reincarnation for so long, Orochimaru felt that although Obito seemed to be fighting very badly, the power on his body was really strong. If the Konoha side was even slightly careless, they might suffer casualties. If a key figure had a mishap, it would be too difficult to stop Obito.
Orochimaru speculated that the 'Eye of the Moon Plan' carried out by someone of this strength would definitely not be simple. Even if he was confident in his ability to save his own life, he couldn't guarantee that it would be foolproof—that was the power of the Sage of Six Paths, what if it could directly damage the soul?
Orochimaru wanted to live. In terms of the Desire to Live, he could be regarded as the strongest in the Shinobi World, so he had a bold idea.
"Cooperation, with you?" Ōnoki scoffed, "We are enemies. Your Impure World Reincarnation technique has caused us a lot of trouble. Why should we trust you?"
"I have already shown my sincerity. Now those Impure World Reincarnation individuals are helping the Shinobi Allied Forces clear out White Zetsu. I believe you have already received this news."
The several Kage looked at each other. This was indeed the case. Ōnoki, Yagura, and Gaara had learned of this news when they returned to headquarters earlier, so they could come here to support with peace of mind.
And Yamanaka Inoichi also remotely told Minato about this, so he didn't have to worry about the battle situation over there for the time being.
Orochimaru continued, "Moreover, if his plan succeeds, I will also die. Fourth Hokage, you know me. My wish is to live an infinite life and then learn all Ninjutsu. It would be too pathetic to realize my wish through dreaming."
Minato pondered for a moment, feeling that Orochimaru's words had a certain degree of credibility: "So, how do you want to cooperate?"
