Naruto: From the capture of the main family to the behind-the-scenes mastermind

Chapter 123: Death of Minato (Part )

Minato snorted, "What do you think?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his figure disappeared in an instant and he pounced like lightning.

A Rasengan appeared in his hand and hit someone in the chest.

At the same time, another Minato appeared beside him and took Yahiko away in an instant.

However, the figure hit by the Rasengan was not knocked away, but disappeared like a shadow.

The feeling of having no force at all made Jiraiya's expression change, and he used the Wild Hair Lion Technique to sweep away the remaining people, and then he returned to his original appearance and shook his head helplessly.

"They are all clones. Xiaonan is not here either. The other side has no intention of fighting us head-on."

"Of course, although we are confident that we have some strength, we don't have the confidence to fight against the Fourth Hokage and the Three Ninjas at the same time."

The Xuanyuan people appeared on the high rock wall like phantoms, looking down at them.

"Fourth Hokage, prove that you are the real person and not a clone, otherwise that kid will die."

Minato frowned and looked at Yahiko in his arms.

He just checked and Yahiko's breathing was getting weaker and weaker... It's poison!

The shadow man laughed deeply and said, "He is only five minutes away from death. If you think you can find a medical ninja and develop an antidote in such a short time, you can ignore this condition."

And this is impossible.

That was a new type of poison purchased from the Sunagakure high-ranking officials on the underground black market. Even Tsunade, one of the three legendary ninjas, could not have developed an antidote in such a short time.

Luo Sha can guarantee this.

Minato's eyes darkened, and under Jiraiya's worried gaze, he directly dismantled the shadow clone.

Soon, Minato himself stepped inside.

Knowing it was a trap, they would of course use shadow clones to test it out. The Jiraiya who had transformed into him before was also a shadow clone.

I originally wanted to use two shadow clones to try to save Konan and Yahiko, or test what methods the enemy here has.

Unfortunately, as the leading bounty hunter group in the underground black market, the Xuanyuan people obviously would not be careless and underestimate the enemy when facing them, leaving obvious flaws.

Under the gaze of the five Xuanyuan people, Minato took out a kunai without saying a word, cut a slight scratch on his arm, and blood flowed out, proving that he was the real person.

"very good."

Seeing this, the leader of the Xuanyuan group took out a potion and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

"Come and grab it, Fourth Hokage! Don't worry, this is the real antidote. After all, you know our purpose, which is to prevent you from using Flying Thunder God to leave, so as long as you follow the steps, those two brats will not die."

In order to kill the Fourth Hokage, he must seal his Flying Thunder God.

Although the hostage method is despicable, it is useful enough!

"Where is Konan?" Jiraiya's shadow clone asked with a gloomy expression.

"She is in another place, and she should have been poisoned by now. I only have this bottle of antidote. If you want to save her, you need to go to two other locations. Friendly reminder, there are other bounty hunters guarding them."

The Xuanyuan leaders pointed in two directions and said in a deep voice:
"Of course, you can choose to stay and defeat us here before leaving, but I think we can still delay for a while. Don't regret it if you are too late to save people."

Yaowan, who was hiding in the dark and ready to use illusion to control several people at any time, suddenly became cold, knowing that they had discovered him.

On the other side, Jiraiya's real body walked out from another direction and looked at the Xuanyuan people with an extremely cold expression.

"A bunch of despicable villains."

"Don't say such harsh words. What's the difference between you five great ninja villages and us? You are just a group of assassins supplied by the great powers. You accept missions and kill targets, just like the underground gold exchange. It's just because the five great powers are powerful and the rules are made by you, so you seem glorious and upright."

Hearing the harsh words of the Xuanyuan leader, Jiraiya wanted to refute, but he saw Minato shook his head, "We don't have time to talk about this."

After saying that, Minato looked at Xuanyuan Zhong, "How can I be sure that what you say is true?"

"Do you have any other options?"

The Xuanyuan leaders smiled coldly and asked in return, "Do you hope that the demigod of Yuyin will help you, or do you expect the other five Kage to stand with Konoha?"

"Or, watch that woman die?" Jiraiya burst out with terrible murderous intent, and looked at him with red eyes, "If Xiaonan dies, I will let you die with her!"

"It's really scary."

The shadow man shrugged, "So you plan to give up on that woman?"

Jiraiya remained silent, just staring at them.

The details of the Xuanyuan group have not been revealed yet, and it is too dangerous for Minato to fight the enemy alone.

But Xiaonan...

When Jiraiya was hesitant, Minato suddenly spoke up, "Teacher, you and Yamaru go find it, I will get the antidote back."

Yaowan was shocked, "Lord Minato, you..."

"These are orders from the Hokage. And you still don't believe me?"

Minato showed a gentle smile and revealed his identity as Hokage, leaving Yamaru and Jiraiya unable to refute. They could only leave with stiff faces.

As the pill passed by, Minato whispered, "It can't be done, just save yourself."

There was no way he and Jiraiya would give up on rescuing Konan and Yahiko.

Whether it was the relationship between the two parties or the guilt of involving them, Minato wanted to do his best.

But the enemy was clearly well prepared.

If all three of them were lost here, Konoha would not only be seriously damaged, but its strength would at least drop by several percent.

As a disciple, he couldn't tell teacher Jiraiya about this reminder.

But as the Hokage, he has the responsibility to preserve the vitality of Konoha.

Yaowan nodded silently and walked out of the cave with Jiraiya. However, Jiraiya did not remove his shadow clone, and the five Xuanyuan people did not care.

Minato used Flying Thunder God to send Yahiko to Nagato outside, and then looked at the Xuanyuan people with a gloomy look.

Nagato was right not to come in because he was worried that he was not strong enough. None of the five people in front of him were weaker than the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.

But if that's all, it won't stop him!

As Minato threw the Flying Thunder God Kunai at the five people, his figure disappeared in an instant.

Jiraiya's shadow clone also rushed towards one person.

Seeing this, everyone from Xuanyuan went to meet Jiraiya's shadow clone.

The other four used kunai to deflect these Flying Thunder God kunai.

At this moment, a kunai with wind-attribute chakra silently pierced through the chest of a Xuanyuan member.

But Mizumon, who appeared behind Xuanyuan, had a gloomy expression.

The feel is wrong, it's a water clone.

"Water Escape·Water Prison Technique!"

The pierced figure turned into a water ball and tried to wrap around Minato, but he easily shook it off with Flying Thunder God.

Minato gave up the idea of ​​defeating one person first and appeared in front of the Xuanyuan leaders who had the antidote.

But the latter showed a weird smile.

If the antidote is in their hands, Minato Namikaze will give up long-range combat to prevent the antidote from being destroyed by the aftermath of the battle.

In close combat, the Fourth Hokage who possesses the Flying Thunder God will not be weaker than anyone.

However, at this distance, he would not miss!

Just as Minato grabbed the antidote and the Rasengan was about to hit the leader of the Xuanyuan clan, the gloomy cave was suddenly painted with bright colors, the noisy sounds were irritating, and the strong light took away his sight.

At the same time, a cool touch came from deep inside his body.
