Suddenly, two people appeared around the Uchiha clan, accompanied by a group of ANBU members.
These two were Koharu Utatane, who had escaped from the Root organization, and Homura Mitokado, who had been sent by Hiruzen Sarutobi.
The moment they saw the Sharingan in Kurama's eyes, it became difficult for Konoha's "Four Giants"—no, now Konoha's "Three Giants"—to continue to trust the Uchiha.
What do you mean by this?
Fugaku Uchiha's eyes turned cold, and his expression became very ugly.
It seems that the Hokage lineage has never trusted the Uchiha.
The path of rebellion that we have chosen is the most correct one.
Little elephant, you're wrong!
It's clear they're seizing this opportunity to kick the Uchiha clan aside.
After the Nine-Tails incident is over, the whole thing will be up to them to say what they want.
Even if the Uchiha manage to escape their purge, they will be ostracized by the entire village!
"Isn't the meaning obvious? The Sharingan mark in the Nine-Tails' eye means you're not suited for the battlefield, understand?"
"Turn to the next room," Xiaochun said coldly.
"You should go and evacuate the villagers!"
"Is this what the Hokage intends?"
Fugaku, of course, was unwilling to retreat so easily, and asked in return with a gloomy expression.
He was incredibly grateful that he hadn't revealed his Mangekyou Sharingan.
"No, the Hokage isn't here, we..."
Mitokado Homura, naturally not wanting to give anyone ammunition, picked up on Uchiha Fugaku's words, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted.
What else can you do?
At that moment, Uchiha Sho's indifferent voice came over.
As soon as he finished speaking, Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado's expression changed.
They turned their heads away along with the other ninja clan leaders.
Immediately, they saw Uchiha Sho leading members of at least two ninja squads over.
At this moment, Uchiha Sho was seen as an extremely dangerous individual by all the ninja clan leaders and advisors.
Chapter 140, Standoff
Uchiha Sō, the Lord of Heaven, God of Thunder, and Minister of the Security Department, stands atop Konoha. His "strength" and power are second only to the Hokage, making him unparalleled.
As for the depth of its power, even within Konoha Village, no one can fathom its full extent; it is like an unexplored, mysterious sea, unfathomable in its depths.
However, the fact that the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, dispatched Uchiha Samurai to pursue Orochimaru when he defected is enough to give a glimpse into his strength.
He, Uchiha Sō, was undoubtedly an extremely talented yet extremely dangerous junior!
All the clan leaders present looked at this "outstanding" junior with a mixture of envy and fear, their complex emotions difficult to express.
One only needs to look at the slightly haggard face of the Uchiha clan head, Fugaku, to understand what's going on...
"Elephant Lord, you've arrived!"
A glint flashed in Fugaku Uchiha's eyes, and he seemed slightly invigorated by the arrival of Eiji Uchiha.
Tonight, in this grand drama concerning the fate of Konoha, Uchiha Sō is undoubtedly one of the main characters.
His absence will undoubtedly diminish the brilliance of this grand spectacle, making it difficult for many plot points to unfold.
With Uchiha Sō in charge, everyone's confidence was undoubtedly greatly enhanced.
After all, with his strength, his mere presence would be enough to stabilize the situation and give everyone more support.
"Tonight is truly an eventful night."
Uchiha Ei nodded slightly, then continued,
"First, the outer root base was attacked by mysterious people, and I was preparing to lead a patrol team to provide support."
Unfortunately, before they could even set off, the Nine-Tails suddenly appeared inside the village.
For now, we can only let Elder Danzo hold on a little longer.
I believe that with Elder Danzo's strength and strategic vision, he will surely understand my decision!
"Yes, when I arrived, I found that the Hyuga clan had already gone to support Elder Danzo."
Upon hearing this, Fugaku Uchiha's eyes flickered slightly, and he took over the conversation with a serious expression.
"However, it seems they also encountered attackers, and these attackers even possess the Sharingan!"
Sharingan! It's Sharingan again!
These words immediately stirred up ripples of surprise and uncertainty in everyone present.
However, when they saw that Uchiha Sō remained calm and showed no sign of panic, they couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
Could it be that there is an even more complex conspiracy hidden behind all of this?
After all, they had vaguely heard that during the New Year's festival, Uchiha Sho had been attacked by someone who possessed both Wood Release and the Sharingan...
Could it be that all of this was a play orchestrated by Danzo and his associates for some purpose?
"What nonsense!"
Just then, Koharu, who was turning over a new room, suddenly shouted,
"I don't care what happened between you, are you planning to disobey the village's orders, Uchiha!"
"Tch! And what are you anyway?"
Uchiha Xiang sneered, his eyes instantly turning blood red.
"You think you can represent the village? Do you really think no one knows about the dirty things you do behind the scenes?"
Uchiha Sho's voice was thunderous, and the other ninja clan leaders present all sensed that something was amiss.
The air seemed to be filled with the atmosphere of an impending storm.
Suddenly, as if sensing something, the Nine-Tailed Fox let out a long roar to the sky.
A terrifying amount of chakra began to rapidly gather, and the originally orange-red chakra instantly turned as black as ink.
The chakra mass grew larger and larger, and the terrifying aura that was suppressed to the extreme permeated the surrounding area, making everyone present feel a sense of suffocation.
The next moment, Kurama roared and spat out the Tailed Beast Cannon from its mouth.
With a deafening roar, the heavens and earth seemed to tremble!
"That... is a Tailed Beast Ball?"
"Its target... is the Hokage Rock?"
……
After rescuing Naruto and Kushina, Minato Namikaze did not rush to the battlefield immediately.
Although he was filled with anxiety and worry, too many questions lingered in his mind.
For a ninja, intelligence is undoubtedly the most important thing.
Taking action blindly will not only fail to solve the problem, but may also put you in danger.
Moreover, the Nine-Tails' power is far too great.
Minato Namikaze knew that subduing the Nine-Tails and resealing it back into Kushina's body to ensure her safety would be no easy task.
Therefore, he chose the best observation point in the village—the Fire Shadow Rock!
Standing here, he can overlook the entire village of Konoha.
Moreover, he left the mark of the Flying Thunder God on his own statue.
With that in mind, Minato Namikaze activated the Flying Thunder God Technique without hesitation.
In an instant, his figure appeared on the statue of the Hokage Rock.
The white Hokage robes fluttered in the wind, and Minato Namikaze took in the current chaos in Konoha at a glance.
However, the moment he appeared, the Nine-Tails seemed to sense something and roared to the sky once again.
"So perceptive?"
Minato Namikaze frowned slightly, secretly surprised.
This is completely different from the tailed beasts inside other Jinchūriki he has ever seen!
Seeing the Nine-Tails gathering terrifying chakra in preparation for its attack, Minato Namikaze knew he couldn't wait any longer.
He must act quickly to stop the Nine-Tails.
Having spent so much time with Kushina Uzumaki and even becoming Hokage, he naturally knew just how terrifying the Tailed Beast Ball was.
If the Nine-Tails successfully launches its Tailed Beast Ball, the entire Hidden Leaf Village will face annihilation!
With Kurama's roar, the Tailed Beast Ball was finally unleashed.
Minato Namikaze immediately felt unparalleled pressure.
It was as if the surrounding space was being squeezed by the Tailed Beast Ball, becoming incredibly heavy and distorted.
Everything that stood between them was simultaneously shattered.
Deep ravines appeared on the earth, and the terrain seemed to have been peeled away under the impact of the Tailed Beast Ball, revealing its hideous face.
Minato Namikaze frowned. He knew very well that if this Tailed Beast Ball came down, he and the Hokage Rock would probably disappear together in the terrifying explosion.
"The Tailed Beast Ball must be moved!"
Minato Namikaze quickly made a decision in his mind.
He quickly formed hand seals, and held a specially made kunai horizontally in front of him.
The tadpole-like techniques quickly emerged, forming a complex pattern.
