Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

Without even turning around, Kushina knew who the brat behind her was just by sensing his presence. Otherwise, she probably would have slapped him already, and Kushina would have definitely gone berserk.

"Don't even think about running away! By the way, what did you lie to Sasuke about? Why did he call you a shrewd businessman?"

At this moment, Sasuke ran over and grabbed Uzumaki Sora: "You actually came to Konoha?!"

Kong sighed helplessly, thinking that he should have used little black figures to make the trade everywhere.

Although Erzhuzi in front of him could be easily kicked to death, he was already in the wrong, and besides, Erzhuzi was just a child...

"Alright, it feels a bit like a coincidence, but we were just having a normal transaction. How can you call me a swindler?"

Erzhuzi persisted, "You even fool children. You couldn't do that in that place, but now that you're in Konoha, humph!"

With a cold snort, Erzhuzi looked at Naruto and said, "Go to the Hokage Building and find my brother. Your dad just needed to talk to him. Tell him to come over quickly and don't let this guy get away!"

Uh!

Seeing that Naruto, who was pulling him from behind, seemed to really be going, it didn't seem right for Minato and the others to catch him in the act of such an embarrassing scene...

Kong then said, "The Hokage and your brother both know me; they've made deals with me. Even if they come, they can't do anything to me, believe it or not?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Uzumaki Sora grabbed Konan's hand and immediately activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Along with Sasuke and Naruto, they were suddenly on the trunk of a giant tree.

As soon as they appeared, Naruto and Sasuke almost lost their balance and fell, but luckily Sora pulled them back up.

"Look at me, running away is so easy for me, isn't it?"

Naruto was startled by the sudden spatial teleportation and froze for a moment: "This...this is my dad's Flying Thunder God Technique?!"

Sora nodded, and then the pupils in his eyes changed instantly, revealing Itachi's three-scythe-shaped kaleidoscope.

"See? I have the abilities of both the Hokage and Itachi Uchiha. They can't stop me."

Sasuke was furious. He held onto the empty clothes tightly and wouldn't let go. His eyes were even a little watery.

His voice changed slightly: "I...I don't care, you've taken my bargaining chip, you have to tell me who else knows the identity of my father's killer."

Sasuke's words stunned Naruto, who had initially thought he was just a shrewd merchant.

But unexpectedly, this also involves Sasuke's deceased father.

After the Ninja Academy started, they visited the memorial three times on their own, and a long time ago... Naruto also knew something about Sasuke's father.

"Uncle... if you know how Sasuke's father died, please tell him."

At Naruto's pleading, Konan, who was standing nearby, asked in surprise, "You also do information trading with children? Or do you use deception?"

Uh!

These words immediately embarrassed Kong.

How can you call it lying? You were clearly telling the truth...

"call……"

Exhaling, Uzumaki Sora used one hand to hold down Sasuke's head and the other hand to hold down Naruto who was climbing up.

"You two should know when to stop, shouldn't you?"

"Boom!"

One of them took a shove, and the two little ones immediately quieted down, covering their heads and sitting on the tree trunk.

Kong looked down, thought for a moment, and said, "With your current power, even if you knew, what could you do? Besides, I remember you didn't seem to have a deep affection for your father, did you?"

Erzhuzi raised his head and replied, "But my brother cares! I... also want to be able to help."

Naruto, standing to the side, pouted: "Anyway, lying to kids is wrong, and this old man is a bad kid who lies to children..."

The last word was swallowed back under the threat of Kong raising his hand, and Naruto made a face and turned his head away.

Sora scratched his head helplessly. At this time, Akatsuki had just made progress, and Black Zetsu was still useful as Kaguya's medium.

Exposing Black Zetsu in the open at this point would not benefit my subsequent plans.

and……

The transaction was already completed, and there was nothing left for Erzhuzi to take a liking to. As a businessman, there was no value left to exploit.

Chapter 172: Extracting the Nine-Tailed Fox

On the trunk of the large tree, Vortex looked down.

That spot was where Fugaku had severed Obito's arm seven years ago. At that time, even he himself hadn't anticipated that Fugaku would die because of it.

Thinking of this, Sora looked at Sasuke, who was still glaring at him angrily.

"In fact, I already told Itachi Uchiha about the identity of the murderer who killed your father during our deal. If you don't believe me, you can go back and ask your brother."

"impossible!"

Upon hearing this, Erzhuzi stood up and looked at Xuanwu Kong, saying, "If my brother knew, he would definitely seek revenge!"

Sora looked at Sasuke and smiled, then, with a mischievous grin, replied, "What if it was your ancestor who killed your father?"

Upon hearing this, Erzhuzi was stunned.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Kong grabbed Xiao Nan and disappeared into the tree trunk.

When Sasuke came to his senses, Naruto looked at him with a pained expression: "Sasuke... how... are we going to get down?"

The two looked down; the tree was too tall, and Erzhuzi could only unleash a fireball that worked intermittently.

I've never learned how to climb trees or wade in water.

So, up in the tree, the two little ones started muttering to themselves...

"asshole!"

"Trickster!"

"You damn old man!"

……

under night.

Uchiha Yun, who had just come out of the Hokage Building, asked, "Hokage-sama, is there something you need from me so late?"

At this moment, Yun thought of the help that Minato had mentioned at noon. Was it because of this that he was called here again at this time?

Minato smiled and said, "I'd like to invite you to my house for a meal, and there are some things that Kushina wants to give you."

Kushina?

Yun was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood what Minato meant by "help".

"If a Jinchuriki has their Tailed Beast removed, they will die."

Yun's words made Minato, who was walking ahead, stop. He turned around and looked at Yun, saying, "What are you thinking? How could you possibly separate the Nine-Tails? Kushina is my wife..."

This made Yun a little embarrassed. Had she guessed wrong?

Perhaps because of Yun's reminder that a Jinchuriki would die if separated from a Tailed Beast, Minato smiled and said, "The power of the Nine-Tails doesn't necessarily have to be separated from the Jinchuriki to be used. With Kushina's Adamantine Sealing Chains and your Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, it's possible to forcibly extract it."

Yun understood, used his Sharingan to enter Kushina's seal, and then used his Mangekyou Sharingan to control the Nine-Tails, pulling out and condensing its chakra to create a smaller or one-time-use Nine-Tails.

This... is the help that Minato mentioned earlier.

As for how he did it, in the original story I remember, Kazuma once collected the Nine-Tails' chakra in Konoha during the Nine-Tails' rampage, and then made that child, also named Sora, become another form of Jinchūriki.

As for Minato, in the original story he remembered, he split the Nine-Tails in two and sealed them separately inside Naruto and himself.

The effect of the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique might be partly due to this, but the more significant factor is likely its mastery of sealing techniques.

"Let's go. I already spoke with Kushina this afternoon. She agreed to the mission in Kusagakure, otherwise I wouldn't dare to make decisions for her so easily."

With that, Minato gave an awkward laugh and then turned to walk towards his home.

Yun immediately followed behind, while Minato said from the front, "I have read a lot of documents about Uchiha Madara. In his battle with the First Hokage, he once used Susanoo to ensnare the Nine-Tails, which allowed him to contend with the First Hokage's strongest Wood Release ninjutsu."

"Based on this, I thought of the Nine-Tails' power. However, the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki is Kushina now, so I can only achieve that kind of combat power by borrowing it."

Yun chuckled behind him: "Actually, I don't think it's necessary. Although that guy obtained the Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique, my Body Flicker and reaction speed aren't slow either. As for Wood Release, he probably can't reach the level of the First Hokage, right?"

Minato shook his head slightly: "I don't know either... Due to the difference in level, the Sharingan of the other party might mean that the Tsukuyomi eye technique won't work on you. And you have Amaterasu, so there's no need to worry."

"But Wood Release... I had Kagami come over this afternoon. Uzumaki Sora's Wood Release is not on the same level as Kagami's. But according to the records, the power of Wood Release is obviously more than that."

As he spoke, Minato stopped and turned around, his face full of solemnity: "After all, Kagami's Wood Release came from Danzo's human experiments, while Uzumaki Sora's Wood Release was obtained through a deal with the First Hokage who was in the Pure Land. This is the most worrying thing."

Upon hearing this, Yun feigned confusion and asked, "First Generation Lord, you are already in the Pure Land, why would you still make a deal with Vortex Sora?"

Minato shrugged: "I'm not sure about that. I wasn't even born when the First Hokage was still alive, and the records in the documents seem a bit vague. The Third Hokage might have known about the First Hokage's personality, but that's not important right now."

Ambiguous statements?

Yun thought about it and understood. The person who recorded it probably didn't want to say that the first generation had a second attribute, so they just mentioned it briefly...

"call……"

Letting out a breath, Minato said solemnly, "What I'm most worried about isn't these known abilities. The reason I discussed with Kushina about lending you some of the Nine-Tails' chakra was also based on this."

"Given the fact that Uzumaki Sora is able to make transactions, no one can know exactly how much power he has. All we know right now is the power he has gained through his transactions with Konoha."

In this world, there are countless ninjas with special bloodlines.

The five great ninja villages all possess such power.

It's been almost seven years since that deal. If the other party's trading abilities had no limitations, then...

Thinking of this, something seemed to flash through Minato's mind for a moment...

"boom!"

The loud noise inside the house interrupted Minato's thoughts, and by then the two had arrived at Minato's doorstep.

"I just told you not to run around this afternoon, and the moment I turned around you went to play with Sasuke, and you even climbed such a tall tree!"

"If Kai hadn't spotted you during his training, would you two have survived this fall?!"

Kushina's angry voice rang out, and Minato, standing at the door, gave Yun an awkward smile.

"Well, Naruto can sometimes really make Kushina angry. That kid is too naughty."
