Konoha: This Uchiha is going a bit too far.

Chapter 89 Nine-Tailed Fox (Part Two) (10,000-word chapter)

"roar!"

A deafening roar suddenly erupted from within Konoha Village, and a violent storm of chakra instantly swept across everything around it.

The nearest house was instantly reduced to wood chips, and villagers living in nearby Konoha were swept up by the storm.

Many people didn't even have time to react before they were crushed to death by the suddenly appearing Nine-Tails!

Amidst the smoke and dust, the enormous nine-tailed fox roared to the sky under the moonlight, its scarlet eyes radiating a terrifying and bloodthirsty light.

"What is that?"

"Could it be that way?"

"The Nine-Tails! It's the Nine-Tails!"

At this moment, Konoha, which was already extremely uneasy because of the appearance of Manda, fell into a state of extreme panic.

The villagers fled backwards as if they were going crazy, and fear and unease spread rapidly!

"Damn it!"

Shisui and his men happened to be patrolling nearby, and they had all noticed the appearance of the Mandalas in the village.

But without a signal from the police department, even if they wanted to go, Chakra couldn't get there at this time.

They were all somewhat relieved that they hadn't gone over there, otherwise things would have been terrible.

"Captain, what do we do?"

Looking at the raging Nine-Tails, a member of the Nara clan's police department asked in a low voice, his voice trembling slightly.

The other members of the police department also turned their attention to Shisui. Although Shisui was young, his strength and pragmatic attitude had already won everyone's recognition.

"Immediately send one person back to seek help, and the rest of you immediately evacuate the nearby residents."

Shisui's eyes had turned crimson, and his gaze was fixed on the enormous Nine-Tailed Fox.

"Also, organize the ninjas nearby and form the first line of defense to delay the Nine-Tails' advance as much as possible!"

Having been on the battlefield before, Shisui's arrangements at this moment were also very well organized.

"Yes, Captain!"

All the team members nodded immediately, and then they quickly dispersed to carry out Shisui's orders, while Shisui stared intently at the roaring Nine-Tails.

His Sharingan eyes were spinning rapidly, and at that moment he seemed to have made up his mind.

"I absolutely forbid you from doing anything reckless, not even..."

"With all my strength!"

-

"Damn it, did something this serious really happen?"

In Konoha, Uchiha Shin and Uchiha Shu looked at the roaring Nine-Tails, their expressions turning extremely grim.

Even though they had never come into contact with the Nine-Tails, they had still heard of its legend.

Now they understand just how terrifying the Nine-Tails is. Even just sensing its aura from afar makes them feel suffocated.

"Thankfully, Yui made the arrangements."

Suddenly, they remembered the instructions that Yuki had given them earlier.

Although they initially felt that it might be a bit too harsh, and although the commotion caused by the ten thousand snakes was significant, it didn't warrant such a harsh approach.

But now they dare not think that way anymore, because they realize that Yuzhi really was prescient!

"Perhaps, Yui knew something about the situation, which is why she made such a meticulous judgment despite all the risks?"

Although they felt that the haori might have been a lucky accident, whatever the reason, the facts spoke for themselves.

They were even more convinced that Yuzhi knew about the Nine-Tails in advance, which was why she took such precautions; otherwise, she wouldn't have started night patrols as early as October!

"Let's hurry up, at least we can't hold everyone back."

Uchiha Shin spoke in a low voice, and Uchiha Hugh nodded.

"I really can't hold them back. I have a feeling that there will be new changes in the Uchiha clan after tonight."

The Nine-Tails is indeed terrifying, but they have heard some legends that the Mangekyou Sharingan can control the Nine-Tails!

They had already witnessed that the haori possessed a kaleidoscope, and now was the perfect moment to showcase its power.

Although this might make it impossible for the haori to hide anymore, after more than a year of in-depth work, they no longer felt that the haori needed to hide anything.

Perhaps tonight will be a night that changes the fate of the Uchiha clan.

"Perhaps after tonight, we'll really have to change our tune."

"Actually, we could have changed our tune a long time ago. Let's take action first."

"Let's have a race and see who's faster!"

"Then you lose, you bastard. Why don't you fire the signal flare first?"

Under the moonlight, as two signal flares soared into the sky one after the other, the police department launched a full-scale operation.

"Third Hokage, the Nine-Tails... the Nine-Tails has suddenly appeared in the village."

Inside the Hokage Building, a ninja wearing an Anbu mask appeared in the Hokage's office, his voice sounding slightly flustered.

However, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had already changed back into his old armor. He tightened the last straps before speaking with a serious expression.

"I understand. I'll deal with the Nine-Tails. You guys immediately organize the evacuation of non-combat personnel."

"yes!"

"By the way, the younger generation of ninjas should also be evacuated; they are not allowed to approach the Nine-Tails."

"yes!"

Seeing that the Third Hokage, though aged, seemed to have returned to the state of a former hero of ninja, made this ANBU feel as if they had found their backbone.

He immediately accepted the order loudly and then quickly left.

"Was the seal broken? What exactly happened? First it was Orochimaru's side, and then it was the Nine-Tails."

The Third Hokage's expression wasn't good, but he didn't have time to think about it. He immediately leaped up and left the Hokage Building, then quickly rushed towards the Nine-Tails.

As he took action, a large number of elite secret agents immediately appeared around him to coordinate the operation.

"Um?"

However, after he came out, he found that Konoha was in great chaos.

However, some people are quickly organizing and reassuring the civilians, and pulling back the young ninjas in charge to quickly handle their evacuation.

He also noticed that these people all had police department insignia on them.

"Did the police department react that quickly?"

"Sir, the police department has been on night duty recently, and they are maintaining a high level of operational efficiency."

As the Third Generation was puzzled, one of his ANBU members quickly spoke up.

"Is that so? It seems that little Yuri has noticed Kushina's difference and has also realized Kushina's condition."

The Third Hokage nodded, though somewhat annoyed that a Uchiha had discovered the Nine-Tails' secret.

However, it seems fortunate that Yuri noticed it and made some arrangements in secret, otherwise the police department would not have been able to react so quickly.

"Thank goodness it's this little guy."

The Third Hokage secretly thought that without any worries, he felt much more at ease, at least he could focus more on dealing with the Nine-Tails.

They moved very fast; a few kilometers was nothing to these ninjas, and they arrived at the front line in no time.

Only when they got closer did they realize that a battle had already broken out there!

Although the number of people was not large and the firepower was not particularly strong, a temporary combat team had indeed been formed here, which made the third generation somewhat take notice.

Moreover, the presence of ninjas around to evacuate the area demonstrated a high level of organization and discipline, which pleased him.

But now was not the time to think about these things. He immediately rushed forward and led the Anbu who had come with him into the battle!

"It's the Third Hokage!"

"The Third Hokage has arrived to provide assistance!"

"Very good!"

The appearance of the Third Hokage immediately brought cheers from the ninjas who had stayed behind to build the first line of defense, as they had already prepared to die if they chose to stay.

The Nine-Tailed Fox is truly terrifying. Anyone facing such a colossal creature would feel incredibly small.

But for the sake of the village, they ultimately stayed, and seeing this scene now naturally exhilarates them.

"Fire Release: Great Flame Technique!"

The Third Hokage unleashed a Fire Release attack on Kurama, but upon seeing the fire jutsu instantly heal Kurama's injuries after hitting it, he couldn't help but shake his head.

"Evacuate the surrounding residents as soon as possible, and get combat personnel here immediately to find an opportunity to subdue the Nine-Tails!"

He knew the Nine-Tails' information; his current attack could only slow it down and wouldn't do any real damage to the monster.

He had to control the Nine-Tails before he could seal it. He was also very worried that the Fourth Hokage had not yet appeared, which was probably a big problem!

"No, probably not. He has the Flying Thunder God Technique. The key right now is to stop the Nine-Tails from heading towards the village!"

The Third Hokage shook his head, not daring to think too much. He formed hand seals, trying to summon the "Monkey Demon" so that he could further hold off the Nine-Tails.

"Um?"

Just then, the Third Generation suddenly noticed a young figure beside him, and he frowned slightly.

"That kid is... Uchiha Shisui?"

The Third Hokage naturally knew Shisui; this kid had participated in the war and had even taken last year's Jonin exam.

After all, he is currently working in the police department and his performance can be described as outstanding. He has now become a captain.

He just didn't understand why this kid was here.

"Could it be that this kid organized the defenses here?"

The Third Hokage suddenly had this thought in his mind, and after glancing around at the ninjas, he realized that none of them were Jonin.

He was now increasingly certain that this was probably Zhi Shui patrolling the area, and therefore he had implemented a rapid response plan.

"The police department is indeed more important than I imagined."

The Third Hokage sighed inwardly, but he quickly signaled to the Anbu beside him to take Shisui away immediately.

Shisui was also a young ninja, and naturally he didn't want these young people to stay here.

Although he had initially agreed to send the children to the battlefield, times had changed, and whether it was hypocrisy or pretense, he had to do it.

"Aww!"

Just as he was pondering, the Nine-Tailed Fox suddenly let out a roar, and its huge tail swept fiercely in all directions.

In an instant, a gale, like a wind-style ninjutsu, swept outwards in all directions!

"Be careful!"

Upon seeing this, the Third Hokage immediately shouted, and the hand seals he formed instantly changed from "Summoning Technique" to "Earth Release".

With his chakra fully unleashed, the towering earthen wall instantly rose, barely managing to block the violent vortex.

All the ninjas who remained on the front lines were still shaken; the Nine-Tails' terror was truly appalling.

"Look, what's that?"

However, as the smoke and dust dissipated, the sharp-eyed ninja suddenly pointed at the broken earth-style wall and shouted loudly.

Everyone involuntarily looked up at the sky, even the Third Hokage.

At that moment, they all noticed two figures suddenly appearing on the high wall formed by earth magic—

"It's truly terrifying. If such a behemoth had existed back then, many things would probably have become much simpler."

After changing into her combat suit, Hikari looked at the Nine-Tails in the distance and said in a low voice, but she quickly shook her head and turned to look at Hagoromo.

"Shall we leave now, or are you planning to wait a bit longer?"

"Of course, let's go straight there. Give me your hand."

He held out his hand to the light, and then slowly spoke.

"However, since you've brought up the past, I think the probability of you controlling the Nine-Tails is also very low, since the Uzumaki clan is better able to seal them."

The Uchiha clan can use eye techniques to control others, but in terms of timeliness, it's probably not as effective as the Uzumaki clan.

"Is now the time to be concerned about this?"

Hikari rolled her eyes, then took Haori's hand and asked in a low voice.

"Are you planning to use that Flying Thunder God Technique to go there? Did you leave a mark over there?"

"No, I don't have it, but others do."

Yuri smiled casually, and his chakra surged rapidly at that moment.

"Minato has a habit of placing Flying Thunder God seals in various corners of the village, which makes it convenient for him to deal with various problems at any time."

Although he set the mark, this technique has a problem: as long as one is proficient in the mark, it can be used universally.

As they spoke, space shifted, and in an instant, he and Guang had vanished from the Uchiha clan's territory!

When they reappeared, the Nine-Tails' roar was already echoing in their ears.

"Although I don't have a deep understanding of the Flying Thunder God Technique, I happen to have good spatial talent, so I learned this technique very quickly and can also use his mark."

Amidst the Nine-Tails' roar, Haori's voice was clearly heard by Hikaru.

Is Obito's spatial ability also a talent of Hagoromo?

However, she almost rolled her eyes when she heard those words. Looking at her hand, which was still being held tightly by Yuzhi, she tried to pull away but couldn't, so she spoke helplessly.

"Stop bragging and get ready for battle. I want to see just how strong this so-called Nine-Tails really is."

Yuzhi nodded gently. After releasing Hikaru's hand, he looked at the huge wall in front of him and he and Hikaru leaped up in an instant.

"Aww!"

The Nine-Tailed Roar was still deafening, and its nine tails swayed slightly, stirring up the surrounding dust.

"It's under control."

Guang suddenly frowned and spoke in a low voice.

"Yeah, I can feel it. If I'm not mistaken, it should be that guy from last time."

Yuzhi nodded, turning his head slightly. He could already sense that more and more ninjas were rushing towards them.

"But the most important thing right now is to keep this guy out of the village; he's too much trouble."

"So."

"Yes, the best way to deal with him is with Susanoo!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the Nine-Tailed Fox seemed to have noticed the two of them, and the next moment its huge claws swung fiercely toward the high wall where the two were!

"Be careful!"

The ninja below the Third Hokage naturally noticed this scene, and they couldn't help but shout loudly.

boom--

With a tremendous roar, the towering earthen wall suddenly collapsed and shattered into pieces, turning into scattered rubble that drifted down in all directions.

The massive shockwave forced all the ninjas below to retreat involuntarily, and many who were too slow were violently blasted away.

However, at this moment, a strange, destructive, and chilling aura appeared in the air.

This aura sent a chill down the spines of the Third Hokage and the others, and Kurama (the Nine-Tails) suddenly retreated at that moment.

Even when it was controlled, it still emitted low growls, and its fur stood on end.

As the massive cloud of dust accompanied the fierce winds whipped up by the Nine-Tails' tail, two enormous Susanoo, one black and one red, appeared before the Nine-Tails!

Both Susanoo were covered in huge armor, with the Tengu mask covering their faces.

It stared straight at the Nine-Tailed Fox like a demon, its aura of destruction constantly swirling around it, surging wildly!

The third state, Susanoo. After so much time, without the limitations of eye power and under the constant hammering of light, Yuri finally managed to bring his Susanoo to this stage.

"It's just that the Susanoo without light needs to be bigger..."

Yuzhi glanced at the light beside him and couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.

The Susanoo of Light is at least fifty meters tall, but the one of Hagoromo looks to be only a little over forty meters tall. This difference left Hagoromo speechless.

Of course, he could increase Susanoo's size, since his eye technique could be applied to Susanoo!

There's no need for that right now, and he knows that Susanoo's normal power comes down to proficiency.

Only through continuous use and refinement, and the resulting resonance with this power, can its strength be maximized.

In the original work, Madara is clearly the one who has perfected it the most. He has made Susanoo his instinct, and he can easily unleash the fourth stage even without his eyes!

The fourth stage of Susanoo requires the Eternal Eye as a foundation for its power to undergo a transformation.

After all, while the third stage of Susanoo is a combination of offense and defense, it also has a huge flaw—mobility.

The Susanoo, lacking mobility, can only be considered a representative of strong positional warfare; it is truly helpless when the enemy runs away.

However, Eternity's current fourth phase makes up for this, as its defense is reduced but its mobility is improved.

Moreover, the fifth stage is terrifying to the extreme, combining offense and defense, and possessing terrifying mobility.

If it becomes powerful enough, it can even fly!

"Although my current Susanoo is far inferior to the giants that will easily exceed 100 meters in the future, I still obtained it through my own efforts."

Yuri clenched his fist, his kaleidoscope eyes fixed intently on Kurama.

"I don't have any cheat codes granted by the Six Paths, and I still have time."

"Let's do it. We lack mobility, but we're enough to stop this beast."

As she looked at the Nine-Tails in the distance and spoke again, she seemed to have activated the Uchiha's passive ability again, her tone almost identical to Madara's.

"Find an opportunity to cripple it, and then take control."

"Let's get started."

Yuzhi nodded slightly, his gaze changing instantly.

Almost simultaneously, Hagoromo and Hikaru's Susanoo drew out a huge ninja sword, and with a whooshing sound, the two ninja swords, one black and one red, hurtled towards the Nine-Tails.

"Aww!"

The Nine-Tails let out a sharp howl, and instinctively raised its claws in the face of the attack from the two Susanoo.

The claws swung down, the red tailed beast chakra condensing, the sharp claws gleaming coldly, and a piercing sound filled the air.

boom--

The moment the two giant ninja swords collided with the Nine-Tails' claws, a massive amount of chakra was suddenly unleashed.

The air was so powerfully compressed that it created visible dents, followed by a deafening roar that caused ringing in the ears of everyone around!

"What is this?"

In the distance, the elite Konoha ninjas who were rushing to the scene were thrown about by the sudden shockwave and roar.

They stared in disbelief at the three enormous figures battling in the distance, their minds momentarily fogged up—

boom--

boom--

boom--

The enormous roar made people's eardrums hurt, and the earth trembled in waves, which made people tremble with fear!

At this moment, aside from the ninjas reinforcing Orochimaru's side who probably didn't have the time, almost all the participating ninjas were staring blankly at everything.

Looking at the two enormous Susanoo figures before him, which resembled gods or demons, and the Nine-Tails that continued to fight despite its constant screams, he was struck by their power.

Although they involuntarily moved closer, they all stopped in a relatively safe position.

In such a situation, one has to be extremely careful not to get caught in the crossfire, let alone get involved.

Under the rampage of the two Susanoo and the Nine-Tails, that area seemed to have been completely overrun.

Countless houses were reduced to ashes, and countless boulders were smashed to pieces.

The flying pebbles, accompanied by billowing dust and whistling winds, shot rapidly in all directions, forcing the Third Hokage, Shisui, and the reinforcements to retreat.

They were the closest to the enemy, and they were the ones who could best understand just how extraordinary this battle was.

Many of them began to glance subtly at the Uchiha members of the police department and Shisui, who were also staring blankly at everything before them.

"Is this the true power of the Uchiha clan?"

Many of them had already recognized that the people standing on the earth-escape wall were Haori and Ying, but they never imagined that the two of them would be so terrifying.

Even the third generation was somewhat dazed at this moment.

"This kid, he and that Uchiha Hotaru have actually reached this level?"

Looking at the two Susanoo that were making the Nine-Tails scream in agony, he took a deep breath and quickly regained his composure.

Having witnessed an epic battle in their childhood, these two, though powerful in their Susanoo, were far inferior to Madara Uchiha back then.

But this was enough to terrify him, because as things stood, the Nine-Tails seemed to be no match for him.

However, he didn't care about these things, but couldn't help but start to think.

Can these two be trusted?

Because of the Second Hokage, even though he was much better than Danzo, he was still wary of the Uchiha clan.

"Good luck, Lady Hagoromo, and..."

"Hotaru, that's Uchiha Hotaru, the person Lady Hagoromo trusts the most!"

"They're amazing! They're incredible!"

"Great! With them here, Konoha is finally safe!"

Just as he was pondering this, he suddenly heard cheers from the ninjas who had been diligently guarding the area!

Not only them, but also those behind them erupted in loud cheers, clearly from the ninja reinforcements who had come to their aid.

He was stunned by the cheers for a moment, then he looked up and stared ahead.

The battle continued, with roars and screams echoing throughout. After a while, he suddenly shook his head.

"What am I thinking? They have such power and have even discovered the Nine-Tails' secrets, yet all they're doing is protecting Konoha."

He turned his head and looked at the cheering crowd, especially the police officers among them, and closed his eyes.

"Faced with the threat of the Nine-Tails, they rushed forward without hesitation and stopped the Nine-Tails from entering the village and wreaking havoc."

Furthermore, Minato stated that Hagoromo's goal was to become Hokage, so it seems...

But as the Second Hokage, I need to consider things from the village's perspective.

The Uchiha clan is very powerful, but their power is enough to protect the village.

For some reason, he recalled something the Second Hokage had said to him decades ago, which made him purse his lips.

"Teacher, it seems my magnanimity is still inferior to yours."

The third generation appears calm and relaxed, but their minds are filled with a whole bunch of random thoughts.

At this moment, Shisui stared blankly at everything in front of him. After a while, he, like the other excited Uchiha, showed a smile.

"So this is your power, senior."

Shisui had originally wanted to fight to the death, but now it seems that he is no longer needed, because Yuri and the others can already solve the problem!

"However, Senior Ying was hiding her true identity so well. But to be so close to Senior Yuzhi, she must be no ordinary person."

Shisui stroked his chin, recalling the situation of the two within the clan, and his smile became even brighter.

However, Shisui's expression quickly calmed down, and he made a decision in his heart.

"Since Senior Hagoromo and Senior Hotaru have protected Konoha so much, I can't just hide away like this. I promised them I would make a contribution as well."

As he pondered, his gaze fell upon the Third Hokage beside him; he had already figured out what he was going to do.

"Once everything is over, I'll confess my abilities to Hagoromo-senpai, and I want to do even more for my family and village!"

While Shisui was pondering, he walked towards the Third Hokage and then bowed slightly: "Third Hokage-sama."

"Uh-huh?"

The Third Hokage paused for a moment, then snapped back to reality as he looked at Shisui before him.

"Shisui, why are you still here? Go to the resettlement area right away. This is not your battlefield."

Having been so shocked by Kurama and Hagoromo, the Third Hokage had momentarily forgotten about Shisui.

"Lord Hokage, I have been on the battlefield before, I can handle all of this."

Shisui shook his head and said firmly.

His words made the three generations of elders blush and feel somewhat embarrassed.

"Lord Hokage, I would like to request permission to support Lord Orochimaru."

Shisui didn't know what the Third Hokage was thinking, so he continued to speak with his head down.

"you?"

Even though he was capable of becoming Hokage, he still had a thick skin. He looked at Shisui with a puzzled expression.

"Yes, although I am not as good as Haori-senpai and Ying-senpai, I also possess their power."

As he spoke, Shisui closed his eyes slightly, and the next moment when he opened them again, a pair of strange kaleidoscopes appeared before his eyes.

In an instant, his aura changed, and his eyes seemed to possess a magical power, causing people to involuntarily fall into a daze.

"you"

For a fleeting moment, the Third Hokage almost ground his teeth to powder.

The two in front were hiding so well that they already possessed the power of the Kaleidoscope and had thoroughly beaten the Nine-Tails.

Now this guy, who looks even smaller and is just a small captain in the police department, has actually activated the Kaleidoscope?

Are the current generation of Uchiha insane, or has a mutation occurred?

"Lord Hokage, like Haori-senpai and Hibari-senpai, I am a Konoha ninja."

Shisui looked at the Third Hokage and spoke with utmost seriousness.

"Konoha is in crisis right now, and even though I'm young, I can still do my part!"

"you"

The Third Hokage was stunned for a while after hearing Shisui's words, and then he suddenly nodded.

"Okay, but remember, whatever you do, don't let anything happen, understand?"

Yes, they're all Konoha ninja!

The Third Hokage watched Shisui's retreating figure, a complex smile playing on his lips.

But at that moment, he suddenly sensed a powerful chakra.

Looking up, one could see that the Nine-Tails, which had been screaming in agony after being beaten, had now created some distance.

Its mouth opened, and terrifying chakra gathered wildly.

"Oh no! Get out of the way!"

Upon seeing this, his expression immediately changed drastically, and he quickly shouted loudly.

"That's a Tailed Beast Ball!"

-

"What exactly is going on?"

Minato stood on the Hokage Rock, looking at the Nine-Tails in the distance, which was struggling to move and screaming in pain as it was being beaten. For a moment, he was in a daze.

He was prepared to fight to the death, and even had extreme thoughts, but at this moment he realized that it seemed that none of it was necessary.

Especially when he looked down and saw the police officers quickly transferring and evacuating the civilians, he suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have anything to do.

"This is somewhat different from what I expected."

Minato was stunned for a long time, but a smile appeared on his lips. After all, Konoha was safe, and the Nine-Tails could be sealed more easily once it was under control.

So, that means Kushina will be fine too!

"Is it a haori, and the other one is Ying?"

As the Fourth Hokage, Minato had access to the most information, so he naturally knew what those two behemoths were.

Moreover, he had come into contact with the chakra of Haori and Hikari, and even though their chakra aura had changed due to Susanoo, he could still tell the difference.

"I never expected them to be so well-hidden, but I really have to thank them!"

Compared to the Third Hokage, who seemed somewhat conflicted, Minato appeared more exhilarated, perhaps because subjective factors led him to trust Haori.

But seeing the current situation, and thinking about the relationship between Hagoromo and Hikari and Kushina, he trusts the two of them even more!

"But I'm not idle either. The guy who hid is the root of all the evil. To seal the Nine-Tails, we still need to deal with him."

After a brief moment of confusion, Minato instantly knew what he had to do, and his gaze and senses quickly spread outwards.

Almost instantly, he caught some hidden chakra fluctuations, his body spun around quickly, and at the same time a kunai appeared in his hand!

hum-

With a gust of wind, his gaze was icy, and the kunai in his hand instantly pierced through Obito's body.

"Illusion?"

Previously, because he was saving Naruto and Kushina, he did not directly fight Obito, but now that they were fighting, he was caught off guard.

However, he immediately changed his mind the next moment, because the illusory feeling suddenly disappeared, and his wrist was grabbed.

"You're doomed, Minato Namikaze!"

Obito's voice also sounded particularly cold. After all, seeing Kurama still in the place where he had summoned it made him feel more than just unhappy.

But the matter is not over yet; he needs to continue, at least to kill this so-called Fourth Hokage!

Obito quickly activated his chakra, creating a reversed spatial vortex that seemed to be sucking Minato directly into it.

"Spatial power?"

Minato keenly sensed the abnormality, and the next moment his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

"It flew away again?"

Obito watched Minato Namikaze disappear suddenly, feeling annoyed. Why didn't you come to the rescue sooner?

Seeing the Nine-Tails screaming in agony and going even more berserk, Obito clenched his fist.

"Ignore Kurama for now, deal with Minato Namikaze first. We need to settle this tonight!"

As he pondered, ripples spread through the space, and his figure gradually disappeared.

On a cliff overlooking Konoha Village, Minato intently observed every movement around him, while simultaneously analyzing the events of the battle that had just transpired.

At this moment, he had a vague idea in his mind, which, although immature, seemed to be the most reliable at present.

"Hmph, you ran away pretty fast, but let's see where you run this time."

Just as he was pondering this, Obito's figure reappeared.

"Who are you?"

Minato stared coldly at Obito, his voice sounding gentle yet carrying a hint of murderous intent.

"You have Sharingan and wear a mask; you look a lot like the mysterious person Yuzhi mentioned. I suppose you also know Wood Release?"

"."

Obito stared silently at Minato Namikaze for a long while before speaking in a hoarse voice.

"You don't need to guess who I am, and I don't care what that junior Uchiha Haori said."

This illusory world has long since lost all hope; what I must do is shatter it!

Neuropathy.

Upon hearing these words, Minato seemed to grasp the unique mental state of the Uchiha clan that the Third Hokage had described.

The Uchiha who had the most contact with him were Obito, Haori, and the relatively quiet Horikoshi.

Although Obito was a bit weak back then, his performance was still okay, while Hagoromo's performance was beyond his expectations. Although Ying didn't talk much, she seemed normal.

He once thought the Third Hokage might have made a mistake, but now it seems he probably hadn't had enough contact with the Uchiha clan.

"Enough of this small talk. Are you ready for your death, Fourth Hokage?"

Obito had no idea what Minato was thinking. The chains in his hands were already secured, and he stared at Minato with a sinister look.

Minato quickly assumed a fighting stance and made a decision in his mind.

"Let's finish this quickly! Although Haori and the others are blocking Kurama, I'm still needed to seal it back into Kushina's body. We can't let this guy hold us back."

"Go to hell!"

While he was pondering, Obito had already charged towards him.

There were no fancy ninjutsu techniques, only the constant clanging of chains, clearly indicating that Obito intended to use his intangibility ability and the chains to restrain him.

Minato also moved at that moment. His gaze was calm, and he threw the kunai in his hand the instant he rushed out.

hum-

In an instant, the kunai pierced the night sky and stabbed into Obito's forehead, but it did not cause any damage and emerged straight from the back of Obito's head.

"Got you!"

Obito, however, twisted his wrist and grabbed Minato Namikaze's sleeve.

In that instant, Obito suddenly realized that his former teacher's gaze remained calm, and his eyes were now filled with a real killing intent!

boom!

The figure in front of him vanished in an instant, followed by a heart-wrenching pain in his back!

In an instant, his entire body was slammed into the ground, the powerful impact sending debris flying everywhere, with only the white Rasengan flashing brightly in the dust.

"Why is it like this again? Why is it always like this?"

Obito was pinned to the ground by the immense impact, yet at that moment he felt an overwhelming sense of grief and indignation.

The third time.

His pupil technique was broken for the third time, and he was beaten so badly for the third time!

"I absolutely refuse to admit it!"

Obito screamed in his heart, and his body once again turned into a phantom.

In the smoke, he quickly leaped onto a tree branch, clutching his arm as a viscous white liquid dripped down.

His entire arm then broke off and fell to the ground.

It was like a cycle of reincarnation; his hand was severed once again!

"Damn it, why is this happening?"

Obito clutched his arm, thinking fiercely to himself.

"However, no matter how much you struggle, as long as the Nine-Tails is still in my hands, then... huh?!"

Pfft!

With the sound of metal cutting through flesh, Obito's thoughts came to an abrupt halt.

Because Minato's figure had already appeared in front of him, and the kunai steadily pierced into his body.

Blood spilled uncontrollably from his mouth, and Obito stared at the scene before him in disbelief.

"Did the Flying Thunder God Technique leave a mark on me?"

In an instant, he understood everything, but unfortunately it was all too late.

"Contract seal, released!"

Minato's chakra surged, and before he could become intangible, the sealing technique's pattern appeared on his body, severing his connection with Kurama!

An overwhelming sense of defeat welled up on Obito's face beneath his mask; this failure left him feeling utterly powerless.

"In this way, the Nine-Tails will no longer be under your control."

Minato's voice sounded exceptionally cold; it was no longer the warm voice Obito remembered.

"Are you ready to face your end?"

However, at that very moment, the violent explosion created a light as bright as day, instantly bursting forth in the pitch-black night sky—

"This is a tailed beast. It's really tough."

On the front lines, watching the Nine-Tails still roaring, she turned to look at Yuki.

"They were surprisingly resilient, and we were too slow."

Yuzhi nodded, but he couldn't help but frown.

He had long known that the mobility of the third stage was a huge hidden danger, but he did not expect that the hidden danger would be so great.

Fortunately, Susanoo in its third stage possesses powerful defense and terrifying attack capabilities; otherwise, it would have become a sitting duck.

"Um?"

Suddenly, just as the two were waiting for Kurama to exert its power again, Kurama raised its head and began to frantically gather its chakra.

A massive black chakra sphere appeared visibly near its mouth, its destructive power causing even Haori and Hikari to frown.

"Is this beast going to fight to the death?"

"It should be."

Yuzhi nodded slightly, his gaze becoming somewhat sinister.

Although the Nine-Tails was badly beaten, its continued movement frustrated Haori and Hikari.

Even if Yuzhi wanted to use "Divine Might" and just wanted to hang eight thousand spears, this guy's agility made it difficult for him to have the opportunity.

Now that it has launched such an attack, it is an excellent opportunity for the two of them!

Hey!

With the roar of the Nine-Tails, the two exchanged a glance, and the next moment, two huge ninja swords slashed out instantly.

In an instant, a violent force converged wildly, and those watching from all around seemed to have only one feeling—

The sky is falling! The earth is sinking!
