I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"It was because of my negligence that this happened!"

"Do not."

Future shook her head and comforted Kakashi, "You don't need to blame yourself for this. You've done very well."

"No one could have predicted Madara Uchiha's sudden appearance, and no one knows why he took Obito away."

"In that situation, you had already done your best."

Kakashi pursed his lips and nodded vigorously. "So... I have to become stronger!"

"I have decided on my ninja way, and I understand exactly what I want to do!"

"I don't want to become someone who's worse than trash. Obito, I will definitely bring him back!"

"……Yeah."

Looking at Kakashi's determined expression, Mirai couldn't help but smile and reached out to stroke Chiaki, who was leaning against her thigh.

This little guy seems to have chosen the same ninja way as Chiaki.

"Well……"

Just as Kakashi and Mirai were falling silent, Chiaki, who was in Mirai's arms, suddenly struggled and slowly opened her eyes.

"future……"

Qianqiu looked weakly at the future and smiled with difficulty, "It seems like I can always see you as soon as I open my eyes lately, it's so nice."

"You're talking nonsense again. Go drink some water."

Mirai pinched Chiaki's nose and gestured to Kakashi.

Kakashi rushed to get water, and almost at the same time, Minato, who was being looked after by Rin, opened his eyes and sat up abruptly from the ground.

"I'm not dead?"

Minato looked around in surprise. Rin quickly handed him a towel to wipe his sweat and called out to Kakashi, "Kakashi, get some water over here too!"

"Oh oh oh..."

Kakashi was suddenly overwhelmed. After handing the water to Mirai, he ran to Rin's side.

His ambitious demeanor vanished instantly, and he became nothing more than a simple water delivery man.

It was an hour later when Chiaki and Minato had recovered and the group sat down in front of the fire to rest.

As night deepened, none of them felt sleepy.

"What's the situation now?"

Minato asked the question, his gaze falling on Kakashi.

"What else could it be? They simply don't bother killing us."

Chiaki's face was grim. Although she had imagined encountering Uchiha Madara from the very beginning and was prepared to fight him, she was still worried.

But now it seems that all the mental preparations and thoughts I made back then were meaningless.

影？

This is really just a starting point!

Chiaki recalled the Kage-level powerhouses he had encountered before.

Hanzo the Salamander, the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, Chiyo, Hiruzen Sarutobi...

They were indeed very strong, but Qianqiu could sense their limits and withstand their aura.

But Madara Uchiha was different!

It's so different!

Even if all of them were combined, their aura wouldn't be as strong as that of Madara Uchiha!

If we were to really make a comparison, it would likely take at least three Hiruzen Sarutobi to match the power displayed by Madara Uchiha's chakra burst.

What terrified Chiaki even more was that this was Uchiha Madara in his twilight years, with only a tenth of his former strength remaining!

Just imagine how powerful Madara Uchiha was at his peak.

Now imagine how powerful Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi, was, to be able to beat the mighty Madara Uchiha so badly.

"...It's really terrifying..."

Minato gave a bitter laugh. "If it weren't for my strong will, I probably would have already had my mindset destroyed by now..."

"Is this really a level that humans can reach?"

Chiaki sighed softly and replied to Minato, "This is truly a level that humans can reach, and there's more than one..."

Is this part in Chapter 358?

Konoha.

Hokage's office.

"what?!"

"Uchiha Madara?!"

"What a joke!"

Danzo stood up vehemently, heavily leaning on his cane on the ground. "That guy has been dead for so many years, how could he possibly be causing trouble now?!"

"It's true, why would I lie to you?"

Chiaki glanced coldly at Danzo and said sarcastically, "Or is it that you, sir, are so terrified just by hearing the name of Uchiha Madara? That would be quite unbecoming of your status."

"Chiaki, Shimura, stop for a moment."

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned, waved to Chiaki and Danzo, and looked at Minato, asking, "Minato, repeat what I said."

"Humph."

Chiaki crossed her arms and leaned to the side. She could sense Hiruzen Sarutobi's distrust, but there was nothing she could do. After all, in everyone's mind, Madara Uchiha was a legendary figure. How could he still be active in this ninja world?

If he is still alive, it would be a huge problem for the entire ninja world!

"Yes."

Minato nodded and stepped forward, beginning to recount the entire incident. When he described how Madara Uchiha unleashed his chakra, directly pinning him and Chiaki to the ground, Danzo suddenly jumped out.

"This is impossible!"

"You think you can take down two ninjas who are practically Kage-level just by your aura? Do you think he's a god?!"

"I bet you've mistaken me for someone else and are using this excuse to make up stories!"

"Shimura!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Danzo with some annoyance. Danzo's mood was obviously off today, and he wondered what was wrong with him.

Chiaki glanced at Danzo and said sarcastically, "Oh dear, it's not that you, Lord Danzo, have been secretly targeting the Uchiha clan, is it?"

"If that's not the case, why do you tremble like a leaf whenever the name of Uchiha Madara is mentioned?"

"you!"

Danzo roared angrily, "You ungrateful brat! If Madara Uchiha really saw you, how could he possibly spare your life!"

"That's because the price he would have to pay to kill me is too high!"

Qianqiu stepped forward, his body bursting with pink light, and a powerful aura surged forth.

Everyone in the Hokage's office changed their expressions, shocked by Chiaki's unbridled actions.

"you!"

Danzo was startled by Chiaki's burst of aura. He was just an elite Jonin, and he had become somewhat withdrawn after being beaten by Chiaki before. Now, facing Chiaki's aura, he was momentarily afraid.

"okay!"

"What kind of words are you talking about!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi slammed his fist on the table, angrily unleashing his chakra.

An aura unique to Kage-level figures exploded out, filling the entire Hokage's office.

"Well……"

Danzo groaned, feeling a sweet taste in his throat, and almost coughed up blood.

Minato was forced to bend over by the aura bursting forth from Hiruzen Sarutobi, but he snorted softly and stood up again.

The most outrageous one was Chiaki. Her body shone with pink light, and she wore an arrogant smile. Seemingly unaffected, she turned to look at Hiruzen Sarutobi and said softly, "Old man, your aura is still a bit lacking."

"I believe you."

Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly suppressed his aura, nodded to Chiaki, and looked at her with emotion.

This little girl is growing up so fast...

Even Minato, who was struggling against his aura, trembled slightly, but Chiaki was unharmed and even seemed to be trying to suppress his aura.

If she can react to her own aura to this extent, then who else in the entire ninja world has an aura that can make her vomit blood?

It should be noted that in the current ninja world, the strongest ninja is none other than the ninja prodigy Hiruzen Sarutobi. Anyone stronger than Hiruzen Sarutobi is either dead or hasn't reached that level yet.

In this situation, what Qianqiu said can only be the truth.

"Hmph, didn't you not believe me before?"

Chiaki gave Hiruzen Sarutobi a soft snort, displaying the temperament of a little princess. Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled wryly and waved his hand at her, "Alright, alright, why are you so like Tsunade, with such a big temper?"

"Hide your aura, it's blinding me."

Upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's admission of weakness, Chiaki pouted, suppressed her aura, glared at Danzo who was silently standing to the side, and then ignored him.

"Uchiha Madara..."

"Uchiha..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi tapped the table, then suddenly tapped it twice more heavily.

Swoosh
