From Naruto onwards, I've become a dreamer.

Chapter 129 The Yellow Flash's Trolley Problem

"You must be Ei, the son of the Third Raikage of Kumogakure, with an extremely competitive spirit?"

That almost iconic lightning armor allowed Minato Namikaze to recognize the other party's origin at a glance.

Lightning Release Armor, as the name suggests, is a ninjutsu that involves wrapping lightning-attribute chakra around the body and stimulating physical activity, greatly enhancing physical strength and speed. In Kumogakure, only the successive Raikage or their designated successors practice this advanced ninjutsu.

"Yellow hair, plus an incredibly fast teleportation technique."

Rui also recognized Minato Namikaze, but there was no fear in his expression. Instead, he was eager to try: "You're the Yellow Flash of Konoha, aren't you?"

He clenched his fist, loosened his muscles slightly, and then unleashed a thunderous roar, grinning, "I've long heard that Konoha's Yellow Flash is incredibly fast. Today, I'll see for myself who's faster, the Yellow Flash or my Lightning Release Armor!"

"Kakashi, keep an eye on Obito and Rin!"

Minato Namikaze immediately realized that what followed would be a tough battle.

boom!
Rui took a heavy step, pouring violent power into his feet.

Suddenly, the ground within a few meters of him seemed to have been detonated as if explosives had been detonated, with the hard rock layers shattering and cracking, and fissures spreading outwards.

A blinding blue lightning bolt ripped through the air in an instant. Surrounded by explosive gales, Rui's speed broke the sound barrier. He used his physical strength to create sonic booms and air rings, dragging along a violent and suffocating momentum, like a giant wave surging in.

Along the coast, endless waves rolled and surged, like the raging tides of the sea, one higher than the next, each wave stronger than the last!
Boom! ! !
So fast!

Obito's Sharingan, which had been activated at some point, was now fixed on the blue figure.

But with his current level of three tomoe, he couldn't catch up with the speed of that figure at all. He could only barely see a faint afterimage. It was as fast as Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique!

The surging lightning chakra around Rui was concentrated at the tip of his fist, like the sharpest blade.

"Lei Dou Ninja encounters the Toto Reiki Sword!"

In an instant, it felt as if the surrounding air was about to be pierced through.

The terrifying force blasted out, causing the airflow to surge and the dust to rise high like a curtain within a range of tens of meters in front!
However, Minato Namikaze moved unhurriedly, his feet lightly touching the ground, his body drifting backward like a falling leaf.

The art of flying thunder god!
Rui missed his punch, but his expression remained unchanged. His gaze instantly locked onto the location where Minato Namikaze had appeared: "As expected of the Yellow Flash, your Body Flicker Technique is indeed very fast. You actually managed to dodge my attack!"

"Kakashi, protect Obito and Rin."

From the brief exchange just now, Minato Namikaze realized how troublesome his opponent was. He took a deep breath and said, "Leave them to me. This is not a battle you can interfere in!"

Kakashi knew very well that this level of battle was beyond their ability to intervene.

But deep down, he still felt a sense of resentment.

I'm still too weak. If I could be stronger, like my father, I wouldn't have to stand here and just stand there dumbly!
Despite his resentment, he could only obey orders and drag Obito and Rin away.

"Trying to run away? No one can escape from Killer Bee!" Bee noticed the three who were trying to escape and was about to give chase, but a kunai blocked his way.

Ding!
The kunai was driven deep into the ground.

Minato Namikaze stepped forward, blocking the two of them alone, and said calmly, holding a kunai, "Didn't I tell you? Your opponent is me!"

Swish swish!
One kunai after another shot out like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.

Strangely, the kunai didn't seem to be aimed at them intentionally; they were thrown as if at random, landing on the ground and trees nearby.

Looking at the densely packed kunai around him, even the slow-witted Hiwa-ei realized something was wrong: "Stop him quickly!"

With his Lightning Release Chakra Mode activated, Rui was enveloped in exploding lightning, his body fully revitalized. He once again unleashed his renowned speed, like a bolt of lightning, piercing through the air and delivering a powerful punch straight to Minato Namikaze's face.

Minato Namikaze's gaze was indifferent. He lowered his body slightly and gently tossed the kunai in his right hand upwards.

Swish!
Rui missed again.

Minato Namikaze appeared like a ghost at the spot where the kunai had landed, his yellow hair fluttering in the breeze, his eyes calm.

Rui's expression changed slightly, showing a hint of surprise: "You actually managed to dodge my speed at its limit."

However, before he could utter the word "degree," Minato Namikaze, who was still more than ten meters away, suddenly appeared behind him as if he had "teleported." He caught the kunai that had just been thrown up and, taking advantage of the situation, aimed directly at the vital point in the back of his neck and thrust it down forcefully.

"Big brother!" Just as the kunai was about to strike, Minato Namikaze sensed something was wrong and a sense of crisis was approaching.

Instinctively, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to teleport once again.

boom!
The instant it disappeared, something as huge as an octopus tentacle pierced through the air.

Standing on the tree trunk, Minato Namikaze stared down at the octopus tentacles covered in suckers. His eyes narrowed slightly, a sense of foreboding creeping into his gaze: "The Eight-Tails Jinchuriki and the son of the Third Raikage, your appearance on the border of Konoha—are you planning to start a war?!"

The importance of the Tailed Beast Jinchuriki in the ninja world is no less than that of a 'nuclear bomb'.

Now, the fact that Kumogakure's 'nuclear bomb' and the next Raikage have both appeared on Konoha's borders at the same time undoubtedly suggests that Kumogakure is planning something big!

"Now that you've discovered me, I can't let you go back!" Rui, who had just been rescued, was still shaken. If it weren't for Bi's rescue, he probably would have died. While he was angry, he also felt a deep sense of dread about the reputation of the 'Yellow Flash': "This guy's speed is definitely not an ordinary teleportation technique."

Unfortunately, although Rui and Bi were eager to fight, Minato Namikaze, realizing something was wrong, had no intention of continuing the fight.

The sudden appearance of the Jinchuriki, a Tailed Beast Man from Kumogakure, and the next Raikage on the border of Konoha is extremely important information. He must relay it back to the Hokage as soon as possible.

"Be careful, compared."

Rui glanced at the kunai around him, understood, and whispered a reminder: "This guy's teleportation technique can only move to the location where there are kunai."

"OK~ Big Brother!" Blood-red chakra appeared around him, and a tail emerged, clearly indicating that he had entered Tailed Beast Mode: "Next, as long as we keep shortening the space and sealing off these kunai, we can find the location where this guy appeared!"

Minato Namikaze slowly rose from the tree trunk, his gaze calm: "This is your last warning. Leave Konoha immediately, or I will show no mercy."

"Don't be so arrogant, Yellow Flash!" Rui said in a deep voice, "We've already cracked your teleportation technique, you'll soon have nowhere to escape!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Rui activated his Lightning Release Armor and sprinted away.

Amidst flashes of lightning, a violent aura swept over, the fist piercing the air and creating ripples of energy.

"Fly!"

Rui kept a close eye on his surroundings. His heightened neural reaction speed gave him confidence that he could find the location instantly: "Where will you appear next?"

Meanwhile, Bee, standing on all fours with his body covered in blood-red chakra, was trying to find the location where Minato Namikaze would appear in the next second.

"is it?"

Minato Namikaze sighed softly, as if regretting: "Although I admire you all, it's a pity that I also carry the hopes of many people."

Just when the atmosphere between the two groups was extremely tense and it seemed that a winner would be decided.

Suddenly, an extremely terrifying chakra, filled with a chilling pressure, appeared out of thin air without any warning. The chakra sphere, tens of meters in diameter, with a pitch-black exterior and compressed to the extreme, contained a terrifying density that was astonishing.

"This is... a Tailed Beast Ball?!"

"Tailed Beast Ball!?"

"Compare? No, that's not right!"

Almost instantly, Hitsuji, Ei, and Minato Namikaze all showed expressions of shock.

Such a high-density, enormous Tailed Beast Ball, once it explodes, can cover an area of ​​hundreds of meters in radius!

Where did this thing come from?!

However, before Minato Namikaze could react, he discovered a situation that made him furious and both shocked and enraged.

The enormous, raging wave, like a whirlpool, carried a force powerful enough to tear steel apart, its target being Kakashi and his two companions, who were hiding far from the center of the battlefield.

Now, a very real problem has been placed before Watergate.

Should they choose to transfer the Tailed Beast Ball, or go to save Kakashi and the other two?
If the Tailed Beast Ball is moved, Kakashi and the other two will inevitably be torn apart by that water-style attack; but if they go to save Kakashi and the other two, they will all be seriously injured if the Tailed Beast Ball explodes!

As the person in charge, I almost fell asleep...
