Naruto: Konoha’s Trickster, Starting as the Seven-Tails Jinchūriki-Chapter 795 - 795: Returning to the Main Battlefield

Black Zetsu knew full well that with Gaara gone, his mission was as good as failed.
And judging from the others' intentions, they would definitely look for someone more reliable to protect Gaara. He didn't even need to think to know who that would be—Kazuyama Gekkō.
"Hmph!"
All his frustration came out in a cold snort. But the moment that snort left his mouth, Kakashi's fist was already in front of him.
"Distracted during battle? Fatal mistake."
"Boom Fist!"
Black Zetsu's reflexes couldn't compare to Kakashi's when he was going all out.
Despite living for ages, Black Zetsu rarely fought—let alone fought anyone truly strong.
Kakashi's lightning-charged fist smashed directly into his face.
Black Zetsu spun like a top, sent flying in circles before crashing hard into the ground.
"Damn it… that speed… and that Lightning Release usage, plus his physical strength…"
"Is he really Kakashi Hatake? He's practically a second Raikage."
Black Zetsu wasn't exaggerating. Kakashi was built like an ox now. He didn't coat his whole body in Lightning Release armor like the Raikage, but the lightning-enhanced power concentrated in his hands and feet was just as terrifying.
To Kakashi, fists and kicks were the deadliest weapons. So he saved as much chakra as possible to maximize his offensive output.
Black Zetsu staggered back to his feet, unease filling his mind.
He knew he couldn't let this drag on. He could escape with the Mayfly Technique, sure—but merging into the ground required a moment. And with the speed Kakashi had just shown, trying to go underground now might get him caught mid-escape.
So Black Zetsu decided to stir up some chaos first, then slip away.
He suddenly drove the roots covering his body deep into the ground. Under everyone's watch, he triggered a new wave of attacks.
Countless roots burst from the earth around him, twisting wildly. In seconds, the area turned into a Wood Release domain.
"Still have the strength to resist?"
"As expected. That monstrous body gives him abilities unlike anything else."
"Even this Wood Release…"
As Kakashi spoke, he charged straight at Black Zetsu again.
Branches thrust upward all around him, but with a heavy stomp, his lightning-coated legs kicked into full power, pushing his speed to its peak.
Even surrounded by dense, destructive branches, nothing could stop Kakashi's advance.
"A brute. You really are more like the Raikage."
"But your chakra mode isn't as strong as his. Your offense is impressive, but your defense… hmph."
Black Zetsu admitted Kakashi's speed and attack power were terrifying, but defense? As far as he was concerned, Kakashi didn't have any.
Kakashi's current state was clearly one of pure offense, abandoning defense entirely.
Black Zetsu ramped up his Wood Release output.
The trees swelling around him surged even more violently.
Kakashi didn't even spare it a glance. He raised both hands, shouting:
"Lightning Cutter!"
Twin blue bolts of lightning formed in his palms—the Lightning Release technique he had originally invented as Chidori, later renamed Lightning Cutter after he used it to sever lightning itself.
Under the dual Lightning Cutter, neither branches nor roots could stop him for even a heartbeat.
The others joined the battle as well, no longer standing aside.
"Enough. If you still want to fight, I'll be waiting on the main battlefield!"
"Hmph!"
Seeing everyone move at once, Black Zetsu knew this was his moment.
Wood Release: Mayfly Technique!
Using the massive Wood Release as cover, he slipped into his escape technique again.
His body began sinking into the earth.
"No—he's running!"
"Damn it!"
Uchiha Shisui and Uchiha Itachi were the first to react.
Kakashi tried to rush forward as soon as he heard them, but the Lightning Cutter gathered in his hands disrupted his speed.
And with wood still exploding from the ground around him, he couldn't break through in time.
They could only watch as Black Zetsu vanished.
"Tch… still got away, huh…"
"The main battlefield, then…"
Kakashi's eyes sharpened. Black Zetsu said he was heading to the main battlefield—meaning that was definitely where he was going.
Obito had gone there too, since Kazuyama Gekkō was there.
Without hesitation, Kakashi decided to head straight back to the main battlefield.
He had no idea that the battlefield had already changed completely.
The landscape was gone.
Two massive Complete Susanoo stood suspended in the air.
The entire ground beneath them had turned to crystal, and the surrounding terrain was fully crystallized.
"I didn't expect your Kekkei Genkai to reach this level."
"I underestimated you."
Madara Uchiha studied Kazuyama Gekkō with newfound seriousness, his tone heavy.
Kazuyama Gekkō, meanwhile, wore a teasing smile.
"Oh my, receiving praise from Madara Uchiha—I suppose my life hasn't been wasted."
"But tell me, are you just going to sit up there?"
"Let's keep fighting."
"Crystal Release: String of Glory!"
Laughing, Kazuyama Gekkō launched his attack.
The crystal-covered ground made battlefield control easy for him.
The crystals lit up, firing beam after beam skyward.
Their targets: the twin Susanoo in the air.
The beams exploded on impact—not enough to do real damage, but absolutely dripping with provocation.
"Not coming down?"
"Then I'll force you down."
The enemies holding the air advantage were annoying—his side didn't have many who could fly. Air supremacy could completely change a battle, just like now, with Muren Uchiha launching his attack from above.
Clusters of black flames rained down.
"Water Release: Water Formation Pillar!"
Yahiko and Terumi took full control of defense, massive torrents of water blocking the flames.
But then—a bubbling sound echoed through the water.
"Blrgh…"
"W-water… die…"
The sudden voices stunned everyone on the ground. All eyes snapped toward the source.
Inside the enormous currents of the Water Formation Pillar, two figures had suddenly appeared.
They were being tossed helplessly by the water, completely disoriented, choking on mouthful after mouthful of water.
"Holy crap—Obito? Gaara?"
"Quick! Stop the Water Release!"
Kazuyama Gekkō instantly recognized the familiar faces. He knew exactly who they were the moment he saw them.
And that ability to pop out of nowhere—there was only one possible explanation.
Obito's Dōjutsu, Kamui.
