Naruto: From Capturing the Main Clan to Becoming the Mastermind

Chapter 52 The White Zetsu Delivered to Our Door

"My lords, we cannot handle the ninja ahead, please..."

A hidden mistman knelt on one knee, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.

It wasn't just because of the terrifying efficiency of the ninja outside in his slaughter, but also because of the chakra leaked from the two Jinchuriki in the tree.

Even though they weren't perfect Jinchuriki, the Third Hokage took two Jinchuriki to a certain place, and they were able to control the power of the Tailed Beasts. How did they manage to do that?

"We understand."

The two Jinchūriki jumped down from the tree, and looked at Hyuga Yu, who was charging towards them from a distance, with a ferocious smile.

"A genius of the Hyuga clan? He'll die here today."

Enveloped in crimson tailed beast cloaks, they charged towards Hyuga Yu like wild beasts. Hyuga Yu, who had stepped over one ninja after another and was approaching them, narrowed his eyes slightly.

There's an unusual chakra in my brain; I've been subjected to genjutsu...

This is the preparation Madara made, presumably to hold back Minato and Kushina. So, are you prepared to deal with Fugaku?

With a thought, Hyuga Yu produced eight Flying Thunder God kunai between his fingers and threw them forward.

The two Jinchuriki paid no attention to the kunai, letting them hit the Tailed Beast Cloak and send them flying.

The next instant, Hyuga Yu's figure appeared at the location of one of the kunai, causing their smiles to freeze.

Space-time ninjutsu?

His hair wasn't blonde, and I'd never heard of the Fourth Hokage being from the Hyuga clan...

Despite their surprise, both were seasoned ninjas and instinctively kicked their companion away from Hyuga.

At the same time, its tail swayed behind it, trying to throw the flying thunder god kunai in the air in all directions.

Meanwhile, more Mist Ninja surrounded them, preparing to stop Hyuga Yu's actions.

The reason for deploying this ninja unit was to prevent the Jinchuriki from encountering the Fourth Hokage. Without enough ninja cannon fodder, the Fourth Hokage, who possessed the Flying Thunder God Technique, could easily relocate them. With proper preparation, they could be dealt with quickly.

Their mission is to hold off the Fourth Hokage. They must complete the mission; this is... the Third Hokage's order!

As this thought crossed the minds of the two Jinchuriki, Hyuga Yu, who was on high alert, did not make a move. Instead, a familiar figure from the ninja world appeared at the spot where their tails were about to strike the kunai.

"Then, you two, please come with me."

Minato and his shadow clone smiled slightly and instantly took the two away.

Even if he focused on sealing the tailed beast among a thousand ninjas, he couldn't do it.

If Yu Hui's information about the Flying Thunder God hadn't been kept secret, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly this time.

The Kirigakure ninja, seeing their once-trusted Jinchuriki suddenly disappear, stared blankly at Hyuga Yu.

"Too slow."

As he murmured to himself, Hinata Yu's hands gradually became covered with blue lion's aura, and he charged into the enemy ranks once again.

Gentle Step Double Lion Fist.

The blue chakra aura greatly enhanced the attack and defense of his arms, making it difficult for ninja swords and kunai to injure his hands even when facing them head-on, further improving Hyuga Yu's efficiency.

Some taijutsu jonin who could previously hold their own against him were now completely powerless to fight back.

A ninja watched him slaughter his comrades, gritted his teeth, took out an explosive tag connected with a kunai, lit it, and was about to throw it at Hyuga Yu, but as Hyuga Yu looked at him with his Byakugan, his movements instantly froze.

Rolling eyes—intimidating!

bang

The explosive tag that wasn't thrown in time exploded instantly in the ninja's hand, blasting him and his companion into the air.

Seeing the horrific scene in the distance, Kakashi clicked his tongue and dispatched the approaching Mist Ninja with a single strike.

As the battle progressed, some ninjas with weaker mental fortitude began to flee.

They stopped anyone who wanted to leave from their direction, but ignored other places.

Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and the Third Hokage have all gone to the front lines, and Lady Tsunade is also about to arrive at the battlefield. The pressure on Kirigakure is immense, and they have no time to provide support here.

Moreover, someone has to spread this message.

Kakashi's eyes were filled with complex emotions as he watched Hyuga Yu gallop across the battlefield.

If I had possessed that power back then, would Obito have been able to...?

Obito?!

As a figure swept past in the distance, the familiar silhouette caused Kakashi's expression to change drastically, and he instinctively gave chase.

Seeing his teammate suddenly abandon him and run away, Uchiha Yakumaru frowned and shouted, "Have you forgotten our mission?"

"I apologize to the Hokage later, but I must follow now!"

Hearing the words coming from afar and watching Kakashi disappear into the woods, Uchiha Yakumaru hesitated and looked towards Hyuga Yu.

He was worried that Kakashi might be in danger wandering around the battlefield alone, but it seemed like there wasn't much to worry about here.

In just a few minutes, half of the Mist Ninja had fallen to Hyuga Yu.

Furthermore, Hinata Yu can also use the Flying Thunder God Technique, so the possibility of encountering danger is actually very small. If things get really bad, he can simply leave the battlefield.

His and Kakashi's mission to welcome him was more symbolic than practical.

Kakashi's unusual behavior, on the contrary, may have been a result of a scheme by Kirigakure.

Mission or companion?

"Do we even need to choose?"

Muttering something to himself, Uchiha Yakumaru ran towards the place where Kakashi had left.

Hinata Yu, you are a worthy opponent, don't talk to me like this and you'll lose!

Shortly after he left, a white head emerged from the tree, followed by a body.

After completely emerging from the trees, his figure gradually transformed into the appearance of Uchiha Yakumaru.

"You didn't manage to collect Kakashi's chakra in the battle just now, did you? Then let's leave. I can handle it alone."

He spoke softly, as if talking to the ground and the trees.

A gentle breeze blew by, but there was no echo.

But he knew that his companions had already left.

Several more minutes passed.

Hinata Yu finished off the Mist Ninja in front of him with a final Gentle Fist, looked at the corpses hanging from the trees and lying on the ground around him, and walked towards Uchiha Yakumaru.

The number of enemies killed was around six hundred. When they saw that he had killed three hundred Mist Ninja and was still not tired, the Mist Ninja began to flee.

Although some Kirigakure Jonin tried to stop him, the demoralized Kirigakure ninja even attacked their own people instead of facing him directly.

He simply wiped out all those who resisted, ignoring those who fled or killed each other.

At this point, the Fog Shadow unit had been completely defeated.

"Are you alright? Kakashi's acting a bit strange. He chased after a Mist Ninja as soon as he saw one. I sent a shadow clone to follow him. Let's hurry and go support him."

Seeing Hyuga Yu approach, Uchiha Yakumaru took out a soldier's ration pill from his ninja tool bag. "Your chakra consumption must be quite high. Here, take this."

Hyuga Yu didn't even glance at the soldier's ration pill, letting it fall to the ground, and grabbed "Uchiha Pill's" head.

"Has anyone ever told you that your acting is bad? The Uchiha don't speak so directly and gently."
