This sea of fire was like a ferocious beast, clawing and tearing as it spread in all directions. The scorching temperature instantly charred the surface of half of Nagato's body, and even his internal organs suffered severe damage. The immense pain that washed over him instantly stripped Nagato of any ability to fight back.
Yet it did not end there. Almost at the exact same moment, the lightning-fast Uchiha Chi seized the opening when Obito's arm materialized to pull Nagato away. Wielding a short blade tightly in one hand, he thrust it fiercely toward Obito with breathtaking speed, intending to strike Obito's arm and let the blade's aura spread from the limb to deliver a fatal blow.
Faced with this move, Obito was caught somewhat off guard. However, Black Zetsu, who was attached to Obito, reacted in time, causing Obito's arm to explode with a loud bang. This blocked the vast majority of the blade's aura and averted the possibility of Obito being killed on the spot, though the searing energy still inflicted severe damage on his body.
