Chapter 359: Distinguished Guests, Nine-Tailed Fox on the Brink of Despair

Kill him and take the eye.

Uchihada's voice was filled with indifference.

In fact, before his return this time, Uchiha Obito was already a marginal figure in the clan.

Before the war with Iwagakure, his Sharingan had never been opened, and his own strength was average. He even lost to Might Guy, who had no talent in ninjutsu, during his time at Ninja School and in the subsequent Chunin Exams.

Compared to a genius like Kakashi, his mediocrity and average strength were enough to prevent him from being taken seriously by the fighting faction within the clan.

And this is why Uchiha Tian said such eye-catching words.

As a disciple of the Fourth Hokage, he had the opportunity to open his eyes because of his fellow disciples who were also Hokage's disciples.

And the Mangekyō Sharingan...

Uchiha Tian guessed that it should be related to the incident when the Three-Tails was brought back to the village during that period. The girl named Nohara Rin was also one of Uchiha Obito's teammates.

……

"But...we don't know the power of Uchiha Obito's Mangekyō."

"Yeah, all our attacks in the clan meeting just now couldn't hit him. It felt like we were in an illusion."

"If we don't find the flaw in his ability, we won't be able to take back the power that belongs to the Uchiha."

"Before, we used kunai and other physical attacks, or maybe ninjutsu..."

At this time, Uchiha Tian interrupted several people.

"He himself turned into an illusion, and there was no ripple when the kunai passed through. The same goes for ninjutsu. He will not be affected by illusions in front of the Mangekyō Sharingan."

Uchiha Tian frowned as he spoke.

The words that Obito said at the clan meeting flashed through his mind, including how he had fought the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze more than ten times and was defeated every time. He pondered this part over and over again.

The next moment, a picture gradually became clear.

He grabbed the tribesman's neck and soon threw him to the ground.

When switching between the real and the illusory, the attack must be real, not partially illusory.

Adding the result of the battle with Minato Namikaze, that is to say...

The most powerful feature of the space-time ninjutsu Flying Thunder God is not just teleportation. You should know that the transfer of Flying Thunder God also requires a technique, and the technique can be on the special kunai and can also be attached to the body.

The instantaneous scene change requires reaction speed.

Without quick reaction time, appearing in an instant might result in not killing the enemy, but giving yourself the neck to be killed.

Flying Thunder God Jutsu, a ninjutsu developed by the Second Hokage who called the Uchiha clan an evil clan, was analyzed and recorded by the Uchiha clan a long time ago.

"When attacking, he will be a physical entity. This is the result of the analysis just now. In this way, the surprise attack needs to be carried out twice."

……

In the Uchiha clan's territory, while the fighting faction was openly discussing a striking plan, Uchiha Fugaku also ended his conversation.

When Uchiha Obito and Shisui left, he reminded them to be careful.

But it was obvious that Shisui listened, but Obito did not.

Back in the courtyard, Uchiha Fugaku looked at the moon already high in the sky and couldn't help but sigh.

Even as the clan leader, the resistance to many things is still huge.

Those old guys who have lived since the founding of Konoha are still constantly instilling the Uchiha's past strength and pride into their clansmen.

But the era now is no longer the Warring States Period.

A single ninja clan cannot fight against an entire village, unless they reach the level of Uchiha Madara. Otherwise, with the coordination of tactics, the loser will be the Uchiha.

There is such a huge disparity in power, and not all members of the clan are militant.

How to win? The coup is a joke.

At this time, Uchiha Mikoto, who had been waiting, came over and put a coat on her husband.

"I ran into Kushina in the shopping street today."

"Ah."

Uchiha Fugaku waited for the follow-up. He knew that his wife would not bring up what happened today for no reason.

Compared to her tribesmen, my wife is obviously much smarter.

"Kushina bought a lot of food and asked casually, but I only know that they have guests at home today."

"Guest? Jiraiya?"

"It shouldn't be. If it was Jiraiya-sama, Kushina would also call him teacher. And it seems that Kushina doesn't know who the guest is."

After he finished speaking, Uchiha Fugaku frowned.

Obito's words from before resurfaced.

The teacher has a way... That person... can't be told... If you tell, you will be hung up and beaten...

Therefore, the guest of Hokage today might be the important person mentioned by Obito for the subsequent arrangements of Uchiha.

And according to what he knew, with Minato Namikaze's personality, he would not punish his disciples.

Hang up and beat...

That guest was so strong that he could actually hang Uchiha Obito up and beat him?

The Mangekyō Sharingan is not afraid of the consumption of pupil power...how is that possible?

After a long silence, Fugaku sighed again: "I understand, thank you Mikoto."

Uchiha Mikoto sat nearby: "It's good to be able to share some of your worries. Ever since the Kirigakure incident, Kushina has become more approachable."

Fugaku nodded, "That Hokage's wife is from the Uzumaki clan who was stranded outside. She must have experienced a lot before being brought back to Konoha. After all, the Uzumaki clan has a lot of physical targets."

"She knows better than many people how fickle people are. My stance after that incident..."

position.

Having said that, Fugaku paused.

Then he let out a breath and smiled.

You've already made your choice, so what are you still worrying about?
Whether from Kushina's attitude or the attitude of the Hokage, it can be seen that there is no prejudice against Uchiha.

So I am really like what Obito said... a coward?
"Father, Mother."

A child rubbed his eyes and looked at the two of them.

……

Three hours ago, when the Uchiha clan meeting was held, the apartment residence of the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze also welcomed today's guests.

However, the guest did not knock on the door, but appeared directly in the living room.

"gentlemen."

In the kitchen, Minato Namikaze greeted him and waved his kitchen knife: "It will be ready soon, sir, please wait a moment."

Kushina, who was also busy in the kitchen, patted her husband, washed her hands, and hurried out to pour tea.

"Minato kept saying that a distinguished guest would be coming today, so I started preparing since morning."

Kevin smiled and waved his hand: "There's no need for this, it's too formal."

Kushina returned to the kitchen and took the knife from Minato's hand, "Go out and talk to the master, I'll take care of the rest."

Minato hesitated for a moment, but his wife glared at him and he immediately washed his hands and went to entertain the guests.

……

In the living room, Kevin was drinking tea and talking about some of the developments at home. "The reputation of the commercial exchange center has been consolidated. In addition, there are caravans from seven countries in the Rain Country, and they are used to conducting trade in the commercial center."

"The funding issue has been resolved, and the research institute is producing results very quickly. Currently, the optimized rice seeds suitable for cultivation in the Rain Country have been planted in the experimental fields, and I believe that the conclusion will be reached soon."

Minato looked a little nervous: "So can we really double the food production as you said?"

Kevin laughed and said, "Double? No, it could be several times. There are not only seeds here, but also fertilizers."

Minato was silent for a moment.

He shook hands and said, "In this way, peace will truly be here soon."

Hearing this, Kevin took a sip of tea, looked at Minato and said, "Actually, I've always been very curious... Ninjas are very good at analyzing intelligence, but as long as it involves politics and peace, your analytical ability seems to have degenerated."

Minato was a little surprised: "Isn't it? Sir said that peace cannot be achieved without resources..."

At this time, Kushina brought out portions of food.

However, Kevin did not shy away from her: "Resources are no longer scarce, and there is a solution to peace. But this solution is not something that can be achieved directly, Minato."

"Power, ambition, desire, strength... from a small family to the entire ninja world, these things cannot be eradicated and will always exist."

"What do you think...if this research result is rolled out throughout the Rain Country and the benefits are visible, what will happen next?"

"Under a series of operations by the Daimyo Prefecture, the Five Great Ninja Villages will be forced to besiege the Rain Country, seize this achievement, and never release it again."

Hearing this, Minato found it difficult to understand.

He didn't even bother to take in the delicious food Kushina brought out.

Kushina, who had just left the kitchen, was also standing aside thinking about what her husband had said.

"Why? If food production increases, everyone will be able to eat their fill, and if there is no war, Daimyo Prefecture will be much safer..."

"Damingfu has always been safe."

Kevin interrupted him: "Since the First Shinobi World War, the daimyo's mansion in any country is safe. For example, the twelve ninjas who protect the Land of Fire, just these powerful guards are enough."

"Because there are not many ninjas, compared to ordinary people, since the Six Paths Sage passed on his chakra to establish the Ninja Sect, their number is still very small."

"But if food supplies increase several times, and under peace, how long do you think it will take for the number of ninjas to skyrocket, taking Konoha as an example?"

Kevin tapped the desktop and said, "The surge here is not doubling, but a one-to-two, two-to-four increase."

At this time, Kushina on the side said: "Twenty years is a generation, and it takes four to get married and have children, which doubles."

Kevin: "So...if there is no war, what if the average life span of a ninja is extended? Eighty years."

For a moment, the two stopped talking.

During the Warring States Period, the average lifespan of a ninja was thirty years, and it wasn't much better after the ninja village system was established.

The scale of the war grew larger and larger. In the Third Ninja World War, countless ninjas died.

"The growth in the number of ninjas will threaten the daimyo who hold great power as ordinary people."

"And even if food production increases, it doesn't mean everyone will be fed quickly. Without commercial transportation and absolute power to stabilize food prices, there are too many things involved."

"And the impact on the entire world caused by just one carelessness will be more terrifying than the Ninja World War."

Kevin said as he looked towards Minato: "Also... as far as Konoha is concerned, does everyone hate war and desire peace?"

"As far as I know, the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen's good friend Danzo would never desire the arrival of peace."

After speaking, Minato stood up and bowed slightly: "Thank you for your teachings, sir. I have benefited a lot from this period of time."

……

The conversation was interrupted by Kushina, after all, the food was ready after a busy day.

An hour later, Minato was pouring tea at the coffee table in the living room.

At the same time, he also expressed his concerns about the Uchiha issue.

"Uchiha..."

Kevin thought for a moment and replied, "The family that inherited the Immortal Eye. Because the opening of the Immortal Eye requires special power, the personalities of this family are very extreme."

"But you are right. Being radical has its advantages. As long as the path is set right, the Uchiha can become the most determined warrior."

Minato scratched his head, "So...it would be great if you could help, sir."

Hearing this, Kevin thought about it for a while.

At present, almost all students of the second phase have passed the assessment, and schools are also being expanded to several small countries surrounding the Kingdom of Rain.

Now that there is the sixth largest ninja village, Amegakure, the request to open a school is irresistible for a small country.

Only the five major countries with five major ninja villages need to proceed slowly.

This is also the current mission of Naoki, Kuroyama and others.

In Sunagakure, Yekura has already returned to the village, and Kirigakure also has arrangements.

"I will meet with Uchiha Fugaku tomorrow."

"Then I'll leave it to you, sir."

At this time, Kushina's expression looked a little strange.

Sealed place.

The Nine-Tailed Fox, bound by golden chains, roared angrily at this moment.

Since the last riot, it has found that it has completely lost hope of freedom.

The last attack from that guy called Namikaze Minato contained a power that it could not understand. Under that power, even with its huge chakra, it could no longer shake the seal.

You have to know that even the Uzumaki clan, even the Four Symbols Seal, had the opportunity to occupy Kushina's will in the past.

But since that time, it has not been able to riot again.

This situation is unacceptable to it.

These bastard ninjas will inevitably seal it in their bodies like Uzumaki Mito, generation after generation.

Unable to die, and unable to break free of the seal.

It cannot accept such a result.

It was also on this day that it sensed the enormity of that special power and also sensed the true source of this power.

So...it got anxious.

"Kushina! Let him in!"

"Hoo! Let him in!"

"You have sealed me in this small place, cutting off all hope. I want to know what this power is!"

In the sealed place, Kushina's chakra looked at the Nine-Tails: "Stinky fox, can you stop yelling all the time!"

The Nine-Tailed Fox bared its ferocious fangs, but then retracted them.

"The power that Minato Namikaze possesses has never appeared in this world in the past thousands of years."

"Think about it...Think about why there is suddenly a power that is completely targeted at chakra!"

"This man is definitely not simple!"

"Kushina..."

Kyuubi's voice unexpectedly became gentle: "You should know that I can sense the thoughts of good and evil. Let him in, and I can give you the answer."
