At critical moments, heroes always appear.

A golden color like the rising sun appeared on the scene.

In a flash, the huge Tailed Beast Ball in the air disappeared just as suddenly as it appeared.

Then a huge explosion sounded in the forest outside Konoha Village. The powerful Tailed Beast Ball exploded, destroying a large area of ​​forest with overwhelming force. In addition to leaving a large circular pit on the ground at the center of the explosion, the power was so great that even Konoha Village felt the violent vibration, and some of the old ground and houses even had cracks.

But fortunately, there was no direct threat to the village, Konoha was saved, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Minato Namikaze, who had managed to turn the tide, did not relax. He shouted loudly without even turning his head:

"Kirabi!"

“Here it comes!”

Several huge octopus legs emerged from the darkness and instantly tied up the Nine-Tailed Fox tightly.

Compared with these thick octopus legs, Chiyo's puppet is really dwarfed.

And perhaps because there were so many tails, the opponent very skillfully used one of the thick octopus legs to block the Nine-Tailed Fox's mouth on the spot.

The defect of small head is fully reflected at this time.

Just one octopus leg is enough to block its mouth tightly, so that the Tailed Beast Ball can no longer be released.

The remaining octopus legs can be evenly distributed throughout the Nine-Tailed Fox's body.

For example, the limbs and waist, several octopus legs worked together to throw the Nine-Tails backwards, and threw the huge tailed beast firmly to the ground on its back.

Under normal circumstances, the Nine-Tailed Fox would definitely not be subdued so easily.

But it couldn't withstand the sealing chains, the puppet's limbs and chakra strings, and the Eight-Tails' octopus legs.

Two fists are no match for four hands. Although it has nine tails, it cannot withstand the eighteen or twenty-seven restraints here.

So the Nine-Tailed Fox, who made a cool appearance, only had time to create a wave of panic before being pinned down firmly.

Uchiha Obito who saw this scene: "..."

Jue: “…”

Who would have thought of this! ?

No, forget about Chiyo, but why is Yaoi here too?

How much is there in Konoha that they don't know?!

However, without giving the two a chance to complain, two Rasengans fell from the sky.

He attacked the two again.

Minato Namikaze and his shadow clones each took charge of one person and pinned him to the ground again.

The two large pits reappeared with the man at the center. The spider web-like cracks spread out and even connected into one piece because of the distance.

Even a ninja can't withstand such continuous beatings.

Uchiha Obito clearly heard the sound of his bones cracking.

"You still have time to stare blankly. You guys look really relaxed."

The blond young man who was always smiling on weekdays now had no trace of his gentle smile, as if he had become a completely different person.

The one standing here at this moment was not the good husband and good colleague Minato Namikaze, but just the enraged 'Hokage of Konoha'.

No matter who his enemy is, he will never forgive.

The man wearing the robe of the Fourth Hokage stood there, and he was not at a disadvantage even if he faced two enemies of unknown origin at once.

"… Let's retreat."

Seeing that the situation was not good, Jue, who was half yin and half yang like a pitcher plant, wanted to retreat.

Of course, this level of strength cannot kill him, but now it is obvious that he cannot be defeated.

If he were caught, he would have a way to escape, but the same could not be said for Uchiha Obito.

Now he is still needed to disrupt the world and prepare for the resurrection of Uchiha Madara.

This is something he has been preparing for a thousand years... If it fails because of some personal grudge, he will be really angry to death.

Such an opportunity only comes once in a thousand years. Who knows when the next one will be?

He doesn't want to wait another thousand years.

But Uchiha Obito didn't think so.

He has no feelings for Uchiha Madara. Although the other party saved him, it was ultimately for his own purposes and not because he really wanted to save Uchiha Obito.

At best, they are 'collaborators' with the same goals and the same blood.

That's all.

So he can cooperate with them, but these people can't try to manipulate him.

Therefore, instead of retreating, he rushed forward again.

Why are you trying so hard now?

You are so strong, why didn’t you protect Lin?

The more powerful Minato Namikaze appears.

The more angry Uchiha Obito became.

I used to admire you so much. But why?

Why are you standing here now to protect Konoha?

But you couldn’t even protect Lin back then?

She is also from Konoha!

She loves Konoha so much!

His eyes were bloodshot and he rushed forward again, swinging the chain regardless of anything.

It doesn't matter what happens to Konoha anymore.

Uchiha Obito activated Kamui again.

He just wanted to get to the bottom of it...even if it meant dying together with him.

A series of blows has made the boy lose his rationality.

"Fire Style: Great Fire Dragon Technique!"

The powerful fire jutsu, carrying a terrifying heat, rushed straight towards Uchiha Obito's face.

"Minato!"

A man in the uniform of the Konoha Guard rushed over.

The man who rushed over with a stern expression was the Uchiha clan leader.

"Fugaku, how is the village?"

Namikaze Minato landed on the ground again and stood side by side with Uchiha Fugaku.

"It's okay. You moved the Tailed Beast Ball away in time. The village only suffered very minor damage... The people have also been evacuated."

"good."

Now Minato Namikaze was completely relieved.

He moved his hands.

"Then we can focus on the battle!"

"That's right."

Uchiha Fugaku also showed his three-hook Sharingan.

He will definitely teach this rat who dared to attack Konoha a lesson and make him regret it in the other world!

“Sharingan…”

Uchiha Obito did not expect to meet the head of his family at this time, and his anger cooled down a little - although he was not afraid of the other party's Sharingan.

But fighting with the Sharingan and fighting without the Sharingan are two completely different things.

Especially since they are now two against two... Never mind, that guy Jue is at most 0.5 of a person.

2 to 1.5...

In addition, the Nine-Tailed Fox, which was originally used as a trump card, was controlled before it could show its power.

No matter how you look at it, it's disadvantageous to me.

He gritted his teeth.

But he was not given the chance.

The experienced combat players Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Fugaku moved at the same time.

A Rasengan and a Fire Style rushed towards Uchiha Obito who was thinking again.

Although he used Kamui to dodge in time, he could not resist Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God. He was much more skilled in the space-transfer technique.

He had already deployed a large number of special kunai in the battlefield area in advance.

No matter where Uchiha Obito goes, he can't escape his pursuit.

What's more, he had already made other second-hand preparations in advance.

Uchiha Obito was attacked from all sides.

In a short while, it was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside - in the physical sense.

Almost all of his clothes were burned, and his body was also wounded in many places by the high temperature brought by the Fire Escape.

That half of the body, which looked like folded folds of flesh, was shown to outsiders for the first time.

Of course, Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Fugaku noticed each other's unusual characteristics. Almost at the same time, they began to search for bloodline limits with such characteristics in their minds.

Who is he? Where is he from? What family? Why did he come to Konoha?

If they can find a clue in the four consecutive questionings, they will know who to take revenge on later.

It was impossible not to retaliate against this attack which was directed against the village.

It’s just a matter of early or late and intensity.

If the village was seriously damaged, they would have to consider reconstruction and resettlement. But now that the village was only slightly damaged, they could focus most of their energy on fighting and revenge afterwards.

As the two fought, they tried desperately to find clues from each other.

On the other side, the Nine-Tailed Fox suppression battle is still going on.

However, Chiyo retreated from the front line of the battle and focused on treating Uzumaki Kushina.

No matter how strong the Uzumaki clan's vitality is, it doesn't mean they won't die.

Even the fact that Uzumaki Kushina was still able to stay awake at this moment was a manifestation of her perseverance.

Although the Nine-Tails was not completely pulled out, if it were an ordinary human jūriki, he would probably have died by now.

——Should we say that they are worthy of being the Uzumaki clan?

Chakra is so special to the tailed beasts. No, this is not the time to talk about this.

"Hold on a little longer!"

Chiyo was sweating profusely as she used medical ninjutsu, trying her best to save Uzumaki Kushina's life.

"Thank you very much..."

Although her life was slipping away, Uzumaki Kushina felt much better after receiving timely treatment.

The chains that rushed out of her body also began to pull the Nine-Tailed Fox into her body little by little.

The Nine-Tailed Fox, which was controlled by the psychic technique, would certainly not be sealed back like this, so a new round of tug-of-war broke out between the two sides.

war.

As the Nine-Tailed Fox struggled with all its might, the Eight-Tailed Gyu-ki, who was in charge of controlling it, felt the strain.

Kirabi, who had never lost in a simple wrestling match, panted and said to the Ushiki:

"Can't you try harder?"

"You're talking about leisure!"

The Eight-Tails in Killer Bee was so angry that it laughed.

Fortunately, he is a magnanimous person and will not argue with his Jinchūriki over such a small matter.

——If it were someone as petty as Shukaku, he would probably just give in and argue with the Jinchuriki for three days and three nights.

"Hey! Pay attention! Kyuubi is trying to flip over!"

After hearing what Niugui said, Killer Bee hurriedly concentrated on controlling the Nine-Tailed Fox again.

Previously, due to the negligence of Nine-Tailed Fox and its summoner, they were able to pin Nine-Tailed Fox down on its back with one strike. If Nine-Tailed Fox really turned over, the pressure they would have to face would have increased several times.

Maybe they can't suppress it with just the two of them - if the tailed beasts really fight unleashed, Killer Bee and the Eight-Tails will certainly not be afraid.

But this is on the edge of Konoha.

You have one tail and I have one tail, you throw me and I hit you, then you give me a tailed beast jade and I give you one, do you still want Konoha?

In a fight, the one who worries more will always be at a disadvantage.

Fortunately, the Third Hokage came to support in time.

As the Third Hokage has mastered thousands of ninjutsu, he naturally also knows sealing techniques.

He brought a few people from the Anbu with him, and they first set up a Four Red Yang Formation to seal off the surroundings.

"Well done, Third Hokage!"

With the support of the Four Red Yang Formation, Kirabi and Niu Gui dared to move without restraint.

It was a rare opportunity to beat the Nine-Tailed Fox, so the Ushi-ki certainly wouldn't miss it.

This guy relies on the fact that he has the most tails and keeps shouting that he is the strongest. The other tailed beasts have been unhappy with him for a long time!

Especially since this guy's eyes are red now, and he is being controlled by the Sharingan...

This is for his own good, to help him sober up.

Thinking of this, the cow ghost whipped even more vigorously.

He even managed to draw out the rhythm - well, he must have been affected by the little guy's unpleasant singing.

As Niu Gui thought this, he smoked more steadily.

The Third Hokage was originally terrified, fearing that his beloved Konoha would be destroyed - after all, that was the Nine-Tails.

The master and the second generation Hokage were very afraid of him, so he could only keep

An existence sealed by Jinchūriki.

But now let’s look at…

He called out to Saruma for help, and he himself came to Uzumaki Kushina's side.

"Kushina, can you still hold on?"

The Uzumaki clan has been destroyed, and it may sound cruel to say so, but they can't find another Uzumaki clan member to be the Jinchūriki now.

Even if we can find the orphans of the Uzumaki clan, it will take time.

So now Kushina still needs to find a way to hold on.

"no problem."

Kushina's mouth was bleeding from biting it, and several nails on her fingers that were gripping the ground were broken due to the force, but her eyes were still bright and lively, and combined with her bright red hair, they looked like burning flames.

She is Naruto's mother and Minato's wife.

...I won't just abandon these two and go away like this!

"……Thanks a lot."

The third generation could not do anything else but help her strengthen the seal.

"If you know, then stop talking to people and distract them!"

Chiyo was really angry. Life was already so difficult, and yet they still had to harass the wounded... What was wrong?

"Also, you didn't even bring a medical ninja with you!?"

Supporting the frontline without medical ninjas, are you planning to let people die!?

The Third Hokage: ...

He really didn't expect it.

What's even more embarrassing is that now that the Four Red Yang Formation has been formed, even if he calls for help... they can't get in.

An embarrassed look appeared on the three-generation old man's face.

"Forget it, just reinforce the seal and don't get in the way."

Chiyo unceremoniously asked the other person to give up his seat, while she increased the output of her medical ninjutsu.

In order to reduce the burden, she put away all her puppets and only kept one for defense.

Next, it’s a matter of time.

It depends on whether they defeat the controller first, or Uzumaki Kushina can't hold on first, and the Nine-Tails is completely out of control.

Although it seems that the Eight-Tails is controlling the Nine-Tails now, in fact, the one who really plays a restrictive role is Uzumaki Kushina, the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki.

At the same time, the situation of the Nine-Tailed Fox also determines her life and death.

If she was completely dragged out, Kushina would surely die. Fortunately, the Nine-Tails was only summoned out by the summoning technique, and a considerable part of its power was sealed in the body of Uzumaki Kushina.

This is also the key to her being able to hold on until now.

Physical condition, timing, intensity and recruitment...

If anything goes wrong with any of these people tonight, Uzumaki Kushina will have no chance of surviving.

Konoha would certainly suffer heavy losses if it faced the Nine-Tails without any preparation.

It’s really...everything is a blessing in disguise.

And as if in response to her prayer, Kyuubi's struggle suddenly weakened.

There is no change on my side, so there must be something wrong on the attacker's side!

"Hold on, Kushina."

At this moment, everyone is helping you.

As long as you can hold on, you win.

And just as people had guessed, the situation on the other side also became clear.

If it weren't for the pitcher plant-shaped fearless creature who acted as a shield for him several times, Uchiha Obito might have died before he could accomplish his mission.

But even so, the two were almost on the verge of collapse.

After all, just because Jue won't be killed doesn't mean he won't react at all when being hit and can be used as a shield with unlimited uses.

In order to block the sword for Uchiha Obito, it really took all the beatings it had received from its birth to the present at once.

Not to mention my mother, even Ashura and Indra, the two great ancestors of the ninja world, had never beaten it like this!

Jue felt very aggrieved - it was a stealth-operating type. Direct confrontation was not its forte.

It does have some tricks.

However, if we fail to defeat the enemy and are exposed here, it will only put us in a passive position in future activities.

The purpose of covert work is to make it unknown to anyone and to catch people by surprise...

In a flash, a new round of attacks came.

Jue had no choice but to take Uchiha Obito and sneak underground to avoid the two men's tricky and fatal attacks.

But maybe it was because he was too hasty, or maybe it was because he had suffered too many attacks before.

The mask on Uchiha Obito's face shattered when it hit the ground.

The true face hidden behind the mask and the fiery red Sharingan were revealed to the people.

"Uchiha!?"

Although Uchiha Obito retrieved the mask in time, his face was still exposed in front of the two men.

——Luckily, he had grown his hair long, and half of his face was covered with wrinkles like a centenarian. At first glance, he didn't look like a teenager at all.

When you get older, you still have a kaleidoscope...

Although they all had a vague idea, when Minato Namikaze looked at him, he felt vaguely familiar with him. He should have seen him before.

Uchiha Obito, who was in a trance due to the pain, noticed that Namikaze Minato looked thoughtful. He quickly swallowed the blood that was rushing to his mouth and regained his spirit.

Even though his arms and legs were fractured, several of his ribs were broken, and his internal organs were bleeding everywhere, he could still find a way.

He can't be exposed yet.

At least not in front of the teacher.

He couldn't even appear as an ordinary Uchiha with no name or surname like 'Uchiha Obito'.

What he wants to do is to be a person who is enough to shock the world, and make people feel fear and dread as soon as they mention him.

So he said, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth:

"Do you think you can catch me, Uchiha Madara, with this?"

Namikaze Minato: “…”

Uchiha Fugaku: "..."

Although the two had this guess, that was Uchiha Madara.

Would they really... make me like this?

As expected, even Uchiha Madara cannot resist aging.

No, that's not right, now is not the time to think about this.

If word gets out that Uchiha Madara killed the Nine-Tails and attacked Konoha, what good life will the Uchiha have?

The relationship between Uchiha and other people in the village, which had been finally eased, would be ruined.

It can't end like this.

The two looked at each other with tacit understanding and understood each other's meaning.

But Uchiha Obito...or rather, Kezu is not an easy person to deal with either.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have done so many things over thousands of years and still be alive to this day and continue to deceive Uchiha Madara.

Although he didn't understand why Uchiha Obito said that he was Uchiha Madara at this time, he was very clear about one thing.

If you don't leave now, you will never be able to leave.

He immediately sacrificed his own body to block the attack, and once again dragged the person into the ground.

This time he didn't dare to stop for a moment and ran away in one breath.

Even when Uchiha Obito attacked him angrily, he did not stop.

joke.

If you stay any longer, something bad will really happen.

Uchiha Obito, the young man, doesn't know how powerful he is. Of course, as a veteran who has lived for a thousand years, he would not be so ignorant as to not have such judgment.

So regardless of

How unwilling is Uchiha Obito?

Without even a hint of slackness, he dragged the man out eight hundred miles away.

What else?

Don’t you want the thousand-year-old wish anymore?

Seeing the person disappear, Minato Namikaze quickly used Flying Thunder God several times to search for traces.

But Black Zetsu, who had used all his strength to escape, had already disappeared without a trace.

Even though he was very unwilling, he still handed it over to the Anbu to search, while he quickly flew to his wife's side.

"Did we win?"

Seeing the familiar blonde appear, Uzumaki Kushina raised her head and looked over with blurry vision.

"Yes, you win."

Minato Namikaze approached his wife at a loss.

“You’re always the winner.”

"hey-hey."

Uzumaki Kushina smiled.

"The next step is to...get rid of the Nine-Tailed Fox!"

Although the Nine-Tails was not completely pulled out, Uzumaki Kushina managed to retain about half of its power with her tenacious willpower, special chakra and strong body, but the part that was pulled out by means of summoning techniques could not be brought back.

“…Seal it into my body.”

Namikaze Minato requested.

"no."

The Third Hokage was the first to object.

"Not everyone can be a Jinchūriki. As the Hokage, you must not take risks at this time."

"but!"

For the first time, Minato Namikaze lost his composure and raised his voice to the Third Hokage.

If Kushina wanted to survive, the seal had to be completed immediately.

Where can they find the right person at this time?

They don't have the opportunity to try and make mistakes.

It’s better to do it yourself.

"No buts, you are the Hokage."

The Third Hokage, who always appeared kind and benevolent, showed his cold side as a top ninja.

If it was a last resort - for example, if Minato Namikaze didn't seal it in time and the village would be destroyed on the spot, then he would definitely agree without hesitation.

But at this time the village and the Fourth Hokage were basically intact, so he had to consider subsequent issues and retain the village's greatest possible manpower.

As the representative of a village, the Hokage is the pillar of the village - if something goes wrong, it will definitely shake the entire village, so nothing can happen to him.

“…

…I’ll do it.”

The Third Hokage said firmly.

"Third-sama!?"

"I'm already retired, and there's nothing much to regret about my old bones."

He sat down and said with relief.

"Even if you die, you will still lead Konoha forward."

"With you guys here, I feel at ease."

"Third generation!"

"Absolutely not!"

“Please think twice!”

Other Anbu ninjas also tried to persuade him, but the Third Hokage had made up his mind.

"Do you want something to happen to the Fourth Generation?"

the old man said sternly.

"I've lived to this age, and it's enough, but you are different."

He looked around.

"You are all the future of Konoha."

But before he could give the order, a weak female voice interrupted him.

"As for Uzumaki's bloodline... isn't there another one?"

Uzumaki Kushina spoke stubbornly.

"What?"

No one else reacted, only Minato Namikaze's expression changed.

"You mean Naruto?"

That’s right, Uzumaki Kushina’s child is of course Uzumaki’s bloodline.

More suitable than anyone else present.

but……

"Trust our children."

Uzumaki Kushina gritted her teeth.

If possible, she certainly doesn't want her children to have the same fate as herself.

She only hopes that Naruto can be a healthy and optimistic child and live a long life.

You don't need to be outstanding, nor do you need to be a hero.

It doesn’t matter if you fail a test or are a picky eater.

As long as he can live well.

But now…she couldn't choose to sacrifice her husband or the Third Hokage.

As a former war orphan, she knew that feeling better than anyone else.

No matter where you go, there is no place to belong.

If it weren't for Granny Mito and Minato, she wouldn't be who she is today.

Maybe he will blame this cold-hearted mother in the future.

But today…

She hoped someone would be alive to be with their child.

There is no chance left on my side, so let Minato... live with his child intact and healthy.

Of course, Minato Namikaze understood what she was thinking.

As a father, he also doesn't want his children to bear such a cruel fate from birth.

But as the Fourth Hokage, he had to choose a path that was more beneficial to Konoha...and also, Kushina's thoughts.

How could he not understand?

Looking at the pleading eyes of his usually tenacious wife, the man who always faced everything with a smile and optimism could only clench his fists and nod.

The short nails pierced into the palm of his hand and blood flowed out from between the fingers, but he was unaware.

He only felt unwillingness and regret.

If only he could be stronger.

If he could have prepared more comprehensively...

"I see."

Minato Namikaze made the most difficult decision in his life.

So, Naruto, who had just been born into this world, was brought here.

"I'm sorry."

Uzumaki Kushina, who was lying with the baby, panted and stroked the child's cheek.

Although the baby encountered many things right after birth, with the comfort of everyone, the little baby fell asleep again.

"You're sleeping so well..." Uzumaki Kushina looked at her child.

"You've just been born, and you've been forced to face so much..."

"I'm sorry, I'm a bad mother...but your father is the best father in the world, so even if it's for your father, can you try a little harder?"

Namikaze Minato knelt beside the two of them and grabbed Uzumaki Kushina's hand and held it against his forehead.

"No...you are."

"You are the best mother in the world, and it is my fault that I failed to protect you."

Looking at her husband who was in tears, Uzumaki Kushina smiled.

She barely moved her fingers and wiped away his tears.

"No, you're the best husband and dad in the world."

"Naruto, I'll leave it to you, please."

After taking a deep breath, Uzumaki Kushina turned around and said to the people around her:

“…Let’s get started.”

Chiyo was the first to come forward.

She is also quite knowledgeable about tailed beasts and sealing techniques - in fact, if the Sand Village hadn't taken a new direction, she would have been the one who presided over sealing the One-Tail into the body of Karura's child.

After all, the Sand Village used to be at the bottom of the five great ninja villages in all aspects. If there were no Jinchūriki of the Tailed Beasts - especially

If they have a Jinchūriki that can be sent out, then they will have nothing to fear from other ninja villages.

Although it was cruel, they had no other choice for the sake of the Sand Village.

Later, because of Miss Ugetsuki, the Sand Village had other directions, so they gave up this approach.

Chiyo originally thought that the research would be shelved and sealed, and buried with her...

"I didn't expect it would be used in Konoha."

Destiny is something that is really hard to understand.

In fact, it stands to reason that when it comes to village secrets like the Nine-Tailed Fox, outside villages should not be allowed to get involved.

But I can't care about that now.

With one more person skilled in the use of sealing techniques, Uzumaki Kushina and Naruto would be a little safer.

For the sake of their lives and the alliance between Konoha and the Sand Village, the Third Hokage was willing to take the risk.

"I will draw all of Kyuubi's Yang power out."

Chiyo said as she looked at Kushina lying on the ground covered in sweat.

The red-haired woman nodded.

"I...will be able to control the Nine-Tail's Yin power."

Now that half of the Nine-Tailed Fox has been pulled out, the best way is to separate it into two parts according to 'yin and yang' and seal them separately.

"Let me help you."

Namikaze Minato took the initiative to speak and had already begun to draw a sealing ritual on the child's belly button.

"I will add the Five Elements Seal on top of the Four Symbols Seal for insurance."

"In order to prevent the problem of psychic magic from happening again... let's add a seal to restrain psychic magic later."

"……Thanks a lot."

In the darkness in the wilderness with only torches burning, the child experienced the first thing since his birth.

There were no cheers and congratulations from friends and family.

There were no parents crying tears of joy.

The child announced his birth with tears.

And a mother, after making sure her child was safe, finally allowed herself to fall into the endless darkness.

"Kushina!"

Minato Namikaze hugged his wife on the spot.

But the red-haired woman did not give her husband the same energetic response she had in the past.

Only the faintest breath proved that she was still alive.

“This is my limit.”

Chiyo wiped the sweat off her face, and her eyes were almost blurry due to fatigue when she spoke.

Can't break free.

"She has saved her life for now, but... there's no guarantee it will last long."

To be honest, it is a miracle among miracles that Uzumaki Kushina can survive until now.

If she wasn't particularly special even among the Uzumaki clan, if it happened during childbirth... or if the tailed beast was completely extracted.

No, it should be said that if it weren't for Uzumaki Kushina herself being a powerful ninja with terrifying willpower.

None of this will happen.

Chiyo couldn't even stand up on her own. After staggering twice, she was helped up by an Anbu from Konoha.

...Also, I should thank Ugetsu-sama.

If it weren't for her, neither he nor the little ones from the Hidden Cloud Village would stay here.

I really can’t imagine what the consequences would be.

"Thank you very much...really."

Of course, Namikaze Minato knew what would happen to Kushina without the support of Chiyo, who was familiar with sealing techniques and medical ninjutsu. He hugged Kushina, leaned over and thanked her sincerely.

Even the Third Hokage bowed along with him.

"Thank you very much, Chiyo-sama, for your full support during this incident... and of course, everyone in the Hidden Cloud Village."

He also bowed to Killer Bee who had retracted the octopus leg of the Eight-Tails.

As long as they are Konoha's benefactor, no matter where they come from, he will not be stingy with his gratitude.

“…Ah, actually, no…”

The young Killer Bee scratched his head and quickly jumped away half a step, not daring to accept the thanks from the Third Hokage.

After all, this is one of the two oldest Kages in existence.

How could he have such virtue?

But regardless of whether Kirabi deserves it or not, the gratitude of the third generation comes from the heart.

The other ANBU followed suit and bowed to thank the two who had done their best to help Konoha.

No one considers one's background, and no one cares about the past.

At this moment, I can only express my sincere gratitude.

——But after expressing gratitude, it’s time to settle accounts.

The only one who can summon the Nine-Tails is the Uchiha.

Because the Nine-Tailed Fox was once Uchiha Madara's summoning beast.

In addition, Namikaze Minato, Uchiha Fugaku and the Anbu who went with him all saw the vivid Mangekyō Sharingan.

There is no way the Uchiha can escape from this storm.

because

Even though they played an absolute role in evacuating the people and providing security, Danzo Shimura still took the opportunity to stop all Uchiha work and asked them to "wait for the results of the investigation."

This action was almost equivalent to saying "You are the murderer", which of course aroused the dissatisfaction of the Uchiha people.

Some even have hot tempers and want to confront them on the spot.

"It's true that it's the Sharingan, but we work diligently to protect the village every day!"

How can we generalize?

The Uchiha felt very aggrieved.

"If it's really us, then why don't we take advantage of the other party using the Nine-Tails to attack from the inside and outside? Besides, what good will it do for us to attack Konoha!"

If there was a lot of friction in the past, we could say that there was a motive because there was a conflict.

Worried about now?

They couldn't get any more harmonious.

Uchiha Street has become one of the must-visit attractions in Konoha.

What good would it be for them to mess with Konoha in this situation!?

Anyone with a clear mind would not think so!

That being said, who made the proposal? It was Danzo Shimura, who was extremely hostile to the Uchiha clan.

Look for opportunities even when there are none.

What's more, such a great opportunity is now presented to you.

Danzo Shimura, who had been forced to be idle for a long time because he could not get involved, was very excited.

He quickly commanded the people of the Root to begin monitoring the entire Uchiha Street, and also "invited" the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku to come out to prevent him from communicating with the Uchiha.

Danzo Shimura even planned to take this opportunity to drive the Uchiha out of the center of Konoha.

As the two core ninja clans that established Konoha, the Senju and Uchiha naturally occupied the best positions.

But that's all old news.

It's time for them to give up their positions.

Especially Uchiha. He has no contribution but still occupies such a good position... Why!

The confinement order for all Uchiha clan members certainly included Uchiha Shisui.

At this time, Yu Yue also returned to her shop.

Although the exterior was somewhat damaged due to the chaos, it was only on the surface and could be cleaned up later without much effort.

The people who gathered at the Yuyue store even began to think about whether they should take this opportunity to repair the nearby roads and walls.

The area becomes more spacious and tidy.

After all, a century-old store can be old but it cannot be dilapidated.

People thought that the matter was over, so when they heard the news, the people in Ugetsu Store were stunned for a moment - they all knew how important Uchiha Shisui was to Miss Ugetsu and Ugetsu Store.

But it was Danzo-sama’s order after all... That was Danzo-sama, the second-in-command of Konoha after the Third Hokage.

So several people couldn't help but look at Yu Yue with worried eyes. It was obvious that they really didn't think there was any room for turning around in this matter.

Even Uchiha Shisui showed a nervous and worried expression for the first time.

Even though it was 'targeted at all Uchiha', people knew it had nothing to do with the child, and Uchiha Shisui was with Ugetsu the whole time when the accident happened.

Right here in the Hokage Building, there was no chance for him to do anything else under the watchful eyes of everyone.

Thinking of this, and then thinking of Shimura Danzo's past actions... rather than targeting the Uchiha, people's first reaction is that he is targeting Ugetsu.

After all, who doesn't know that Uchiha Shisui is Ugetsu's most trusted right-hand man and the second in command of the entire Ugetsu store?

However, Yu Yue, who was surrounded and became the center of concern, was actually the calmest person present.

Of course she was angry - someone suddenly did this to her, and the person who was touched was her most trusted assistant, who wouldn't be angry?

But after all, she was someone who had experienced many ups and downs in the workplace, so she wasn't so dizzy and at a loss what to do by this blow.

After all, being forced to owe a contract or having your team poached at a critical moment... this is still an acceptable result.

Do you want to cut off her arm by taking that person away?

That depends on whether you have the ability to do so.

"Why that expression?"

She looked up and around.

"It hasn't been decided yet. After all, Danzo Shimura is not the Hokage."

"He can ask for someone, and I can go to the Hokage Building."

Seeing that people were still panicking and at a loss, Yu Yue simply smiled and said softly: "Well, let me tell you a joke."

"Once upon a time, there was a child who bought milk tea with an adult. When the adult took the milk tea, his hand slipped and the milk tea fell to the ground. The child pointed at the adult and laughed."

"But then his joy turned into sorrow. When he turned around, he didn't pay attention to the stairs. In order to grab the handrail, he lost his grip on the milk tea and it fell down.

Go - and at this moment, he saw the adult calmly walk away with the second cup of milk tea he bought later. "

...Although it's quite funny to think about it, is this the time to tell a joke?

Several people looked at each other, wondering for a moment whether Miss Yu Yue had suffered too great a blow and had started to have wild thoughts.

Only Uchiha Shisui, the first assistant and person in charge of Ugetsu Store, suddenly smiled.

"Miss Yu Yue, are you trying to say, are you this adult?"

"What else?"

Yu Yue still had her arms folded across her chest.

She has acknowledged the identity of the 'adult', so it is obvious who is the 'child' at this moment.

Several children who were born as ninjas were stunned for a moment.

They never thought that Shimura Danzo, who was high up in Konoha, would one day be compared to a "child".

After all, as ninjas, they are used to the higher-ups giving orders.

The orders from the top are absolute, regardless of right or wrong - this is the common understanding of almost every ninja.

I never expected that Miss Ugetsu, who wasn't even a ninja, would have the audacity to compare herself to the 'victor' between the two.

Looking at people's surprised eyes, Ugetsu turned to look at Uchiha Shisui.

"Just stay here." She paused and sneered.

Although she had just been comforting others, murderous intent appeared in the girl's eyes.

As a complete "outsider", Yu Yue naturally didn't know the grudges between Uchiha and Konoha, and Shimura Danzo.

She only knew that there were shameless people who wanted to take away her right and left hands.

How can that be?

Whatever the reason, this precedent cannot be set.

Otherwise, in the future, you want to go alone and he wants to go alone...won't she become a zero-yuan shopping supermarket?

"It's not that easy to take my people away without any evidence."

If you want to find someone to bully, it depends on whether you have the ability. !
