God Tree (chapter)

Summary
Having extracted the Ten-Tails whose stomach begins to open up, Obito mulls over his next step before removing the barrier as the beasts transforms into a giant tree. As the tree stretches its tendrils and grab hold of the shinobi who become emaciated causing pandemonium to break out as they realise that the tree was absorbing chakra and killing their comrades. As Madara and Hashirama continue their battle, the Uchiha reveals the history of Kaguya Ōtsutsuki and the God Tree and the fruit that it bore and how chakra became a weapon for man to use as written on the Naka Shrine. He also noted that once the flower bloomed, the eye within it would reflect the Infinite Tsukuyomi onto it, thus completing the plan and that the one who would complete the plan is himself. Meanwhile, as Naruto tries to escape the clutches of the tree, Tobirama destroys the branches, but they start to regenerate. Calling out to Minato, the fourth exclaims that he didn't have enough chakra to teleport to Naruto before they can teleport to his aid. As his chakra begins to wane, Hiruzen arrives in the nick of time and after apologising for being late, destroys the branches with the adamantine staff allowing Tobirama to teleport them all to safety. As Naruto looks around in anguish at his comrades, Obito tells them all to simply give in, as their suffering would end soon.
