CHAPTER XXIV: Kakashi vs. Obito & Seeing Dad again.

Third Person's point of view

As Allied Shinobi Forces watch the Ten-Tails burn, Naruto wanting to extract the Tailed Beasts from it, Sasuke reveals his intention to completely destroy the Ten Tails. But the monster severs the burning part of its body to escape death. Back in the other dimension, after his battle with Kakashi ends with them impaling each other with their attacks, Obito warps back to the battlefield.

Seeing Obito return to their reality, lamenting not fighting Hashirama prior and that his apprentice outlived his purpose, Madara forces Obito to use the Samsara of Heavenly Life so he can be resurrected and become the Ten Tails Jinchuriki. Producing a Shadow Clone to help Naruto and Sasuke stop Obito while Hashirama and Tobirama deal with Madara, Minato learns his former apprentice was the masked ninja from the night of his death.

But matters worsen when Obito reveals he retained control of himself as he frees the Ten Tails before absorbing it to become a Jinchuriki. Minato(fem) arriving just as the Jinchuriki is being absorbed looks around the onlooking ninja and spots her father not too far from Naruto. Crying out to him his head snaps in her direction just as she flashes at him. Her long blond hair flying behind her like a flag or cape. "Dad!" Catching her, he couldn't help but look her over for any kind of wound. But nothing, looks like she's more him than Kushina. It made him slightly boastful. Sighing in relief he pulled her back in for a hug. Or more like a crushing hug.

As the other Allied Shinobi wonder about the Ten-Tails's sudden disappearance, Hinata explains to Sakura that the monster's body and chakra were completely absorbed by Obito who became a Jinchuriki rather than perform the Rinne Rebirth for Madara. With him and Tobirama noting the new threat, Hashirama attempts to pin Obito.

However, Hashirama's restraints prove useless against Obito as he destroys the Hokages' barrier with his chakra arms. As Minato tries to call out to his former student, and Hashirama unable to avoid an impatient Madara, the other reanimated Hokage start attacking the enemy by using their indestructible bodies to study Obito's power such as his ability to blend multiple chakra natures to produce a multipurpose substance.

Minato goes on the front trying to exploit Obito's inability to suppress the Ten-Tails, only for Obito to dodge and grab Naruto and Sasuke by their necks. Luckily, Naruto uses his chakra arms to get his father to teleport himself and Sasuke to safety but Minato(jr) uses her own flash step to get there first; her teleportation marks already set on them to help her, while Obito begins to suffer the side effects of the Ten-Tails inside his body.

Realizing Obito is open to attack, Minato(sr) decides to make his move with Naruto, Sasuke and his daughter following. However, though his consciousness is being ripped apart by the Ten-Tails, Obito uses his memories of Rin and Team Minato to assert full control and assume a new form similar to the Sage of the Six Paths.

Now in full control of himself, Obito forces Minato to teleport back after ripping the Fourth Hokage's arm off. But Sasuke and Naruto then noticed that Obito had attached some of the mysterious substance in place of Minato's missing arm, which is about to detonate. Minato was about to teleport Naruto, Sasuke and Minato(jr) away from him when Minato(jr) uses her thunder God flash step and mark to take the detonating Truth Seeking Ball back to Obito who shields himself from the explosion. Having realized that she had put her mark on him when she went to save Naruto and Sasuke.

Meanwhile, the Allied Shinobi are intimidated while witnessing the god-like battle between Madara and Hashirama until Shikamaru uplifts their morale while telling them that because no matter how little power they have in comparison to the legendary ninja, even the smallest opening could be exploited. After readjusting their plan of attack, Naruto and Sasuke combine their techniques to create an opening but Tobirama, Minato and Minato(jr) strategically use their Flying Raijin techniques so that the Scorch Style Nimbus Tempest instead hits Obito. But Obito emerges from the flames, unscathed as it is revealed that the Truth Seeking Balls contain Yin-Yang chakra that negates the regenerative abilities of reanimated ninja.

Matters are worsened when Naruto's Nine Tails Chakra Mode runs out while Gamakichi makes an attack on Obito with his Starch Syrup Gun before the Summoning Jutsu expires. From there, Obito berates the title of Hokage. But having seen the effect of Gamakichi's attack on Obito's barrier while angered by Obito's words, Naruto, with the help of Tobirama, successfully lands a senjutsu Rasengan on Obito's back. Minato amazes on Naruto becoming a sage like Jiraiya before being suddenly contacted through Minato(jr) by Yin Kurama, who reminds him that Naruto did manage to befriend his other half.
