"This is the first time I've ever seen Kushina scream in pain like this."
"Is it really okay?"
Minato Namikaze stood beside the delivery bed, his hands maintaining the stability of the seal. Looking at Kushina's face full of pain, he couldn't help but ask with concern.
Although he was the Hokage, this was his first time accompanying someone during childbirth, and being inexperienced, he couldn't help but ask Biwako for advice.
"It's okay—"
"You'd better just keep an eye on the Nine-Tails seal!"
Unlike Minato's tension, Biwako was much more composed, looking at Kushina's lower body and speaking calmly.
"but..."
"this..."
Kushina's cries of pain continued unabated, while Minato remained deeply worried.
"As the Fourth Hokage, don't be so flustered."
"Men would have been in excruciating pain long ago, but women are very strong!"
At this moment, Biwako still had the mood to tease Minato, but this was only on the surface. Fine beads of sweat were seeping from Biwako's face, clearly showing that she was also under great tension, far from the composure she appeared to be.
Just then, the Nine-Tails started to stir, and Minato, unable to speak, devoted himself entirely to reinforcing the seal.
The Nine-Tails' resistance was incredibly strong, and Minato felt it acutely:
"So powerful... The Nine-Tails is struggling to break free!"
Minato thought to himself, and gritted his teeth slightly.
"Go for it, Kushina!"
"Go for it, Naruto!"
Minato prayed silently in his heart, his face filled with deep worry.
...
Outside the cave.
Obito Uchiha appeared out of thin air, silently appearing behind an ANBU member, and then sucked the member into the Kamui dimension.
In the next instant, he appeared in front of another member of the ANBU, and with lightning speed, grabbed the member by the neck, ending his life instantly.
In just over ten seconds, all four ANBU guards in front of the cave were killed by Uchiha Obito.
Obito Uchiha casually tossed the corpse of an ANBU member into the lake, slowly rose, looked at the cave, his eyes glowing crimson, and then his figure slowly blurred and disappeared into thin air.
...
At the same time, inside the cave.
"Dahui!"
Hyuga Hizashi, who had been quietly guarding the side, suddenly shouted his younger brother's name and flashed to Minato's side.
"Ah! I know!"
Hyuga Daiki had already rushed to the door the moment Hizashi called his name, swiftly pulling a kunai from his ninja tool pouch and holding it in his hand.
Although the fight outside the cave was silent, it couldn't escape the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan.
"what happens?"
While struggling to maintain the seal, Minato asked Hizashi, who had suddenly approached from behind.
"Lord Minato, there is an intruder!"
"It was a young man wearing a tiger-striped mask!"
The information provided was quite comprehensive: a tiger-striped mask and a young man. Hiashi didn't recognize Obito, but Minato was able to deduce the answer from the information he gathered.
"Obito!"
Just as Minato was stunned, Kushina let out a cry of pain, followed by the sound of a baby crying in the cave.
"Quick! Get some hot water!"
Biwako's tone was full of joy.
Minato's face lit up with joy upon hearing the baby's cries.
"I'm a dad!"
Joy surged like a tide, and even he was momentarily stunned by this tremendous good news.
"The Yondaime!!!"
At that moment, Hiashi's shout brought Minato back to reality.
In the next instant, Hizashi leaped up and struck out with a palm strike from behind Biwako. The powerful force of the Bagua Empty Palm instantly passed by the side of Biwako's head.
Unbeknownst to them, Obito Uchiha, wearing a mask and a black robe, had already appeared in the delivery room. He silently appeared behind Biwako and Rin, reaching out to grab their necks.
However, his movements were detected by Hizashi, who launched a sudden attack the moment the opponent made his move.
"The Hyuga clan..."
"Mu da da—"
The empty palm passed through Obito Uchiha's body and slammed into the ground, creating a large crater.
Just as Obito was about to turn his empty palm into a real one to take down the two medical ninjas, Hyuga Hizashi attacked from the sky, aiming a Gentle Fist at Obito's forehead.
His formidable physical skills and terrifying reaction speed instantly closed the distance between Hizashi and Obito.
Obito kept his body in a ethereal state, allowing Hizashi to pass through him.
His figure was like a ghost, easily passing through Biwako's body. The next instant, he materialized and grabbed the baby in Biwako's hand.
...................
Chapter 34 Man proposes, God disposes!
Hyuga Hizashi's continuous attacks caused Obito's target to change. His original intention was to take out the two medical ninjas, Biwako and Rin, but Hizashi's appearance forced him to remain in his intangible state.
Even Obito, after awakening his Mangekyou Sharingan and mastering Kamui, wouldn't have considered competing in taijutsu with the Hyuga clan's ninjas in such a place.
With so many ninjas present, including the Fourth Hokage and elites from the Hyuga clan, Obito felt he needed to acquire a powerful "card" to achieve his goal.
And the child that Minato Namikaze and Kushina had just been born, less than a minute ago, is a very good card!
Just as Obito's body had completely passed through Lake Biwa, and his hand was about to grab Naruto, a trident kunai suddenly came flying through the air, heading straight for Obito's head.
After a few seconds of stunned silence, Minato Namikaze finally reacted after being sharply reminded by Hizashi Hyuga. He then shot a kunai at Obito, but after shooting the kunai, the Fourth Hokage hurriedly placed his hand on the seal on Kushina's lower abdomen to reinforce the Nine-Tails' seal.
Kushina had just given birth to Naruto and was at her weakest. The Nine-Tails inside her was also restless, struggling to break free of its seal.
In the brief instant that Minato created his clone, the Nine-Tails' chakra leaked out again, and a red chakra cloak wrapped around Kushina's body.
With just a glance, Obito realized that Minato was hampered by the Nine-Tails' seal. A slight smile played on his lips beneath his mask as he hovered his hand in front of Naruto, letting the Flying Thunder God kunai pass through before continuing to grab at Naruto.
"Humph!"
However, at that moment, a cold snort came from behind Obito. Although Hyuga Hizashi, whose attack had failed, was out of position from Obito, the Hyuga clan's Byakugan provided him with a 360° almost blind-spot-free view, allowing him to have complete control over everything that was happening behind him.
As Hizashi swiftly turned around, he delivered a sweeping kick to Biwako, then caught the Flying Thunder God kunai that Minato had shot through Obito's body in mid-air. He then forcefully flung it out, sending it flying diagonally down towards Obito's back.
As he threw out the kunai, Hizashi swiftly closed in, flinging Biwako backward and pointing his sword directly at Obito's pressure point in the back.
All of this happened in an instant.
Knowing Obito's abilities all along, Hyuga Hizashi had no intention of giving Obito any chance to breathe. In conjunction with the kunai thrown by Minato, the attacks came like a tidal wave, one after another.
Was young Obito Uchiha strong?
With the Mangekyou Sharingan and mastery of Kamui, a near-invincible space-time ninjutsu, Obito's strength is undoubtedly formidable.
However, on the other hand, Obito's own qualities did not completely transcend the category of "ninja".
Whether it's on-the-spot reaction, combat experience, or physical strength, speed, and combat skills, all of these require time to accumulate. They cannot be rapidly improved simply by relying on "divine power."
Simply put, Obito, who possesses Kamui, is currently a "mechanical monster," and his basic stats cannot be compared with those of a powerhouse like Minato.
That is why Obito Uchiha didn't win his battles easily before becoming the Ten-Tails' Jinchuriki.
Whether it was fighting against Minato Namikaze, or against Danzo's two Root subordinates, or even against Konan, Obito either lost or won with great difficulty.
Hyuga Hizashi was an elite member of the Hyuga clan. Within the entire Hyuga clan, his strength was comparable to that of the clan head, Hiashi. If it weren't for his status as a member of the branch family, his potential would even surpass that of Hiashi. Moreover, at the age of twenty-eight, he was at the peak of his ninja career.
Unlike Obito, Hiyori is a "mechanical monster" with a certain value, and his "stats" are stronger than Obito's.
With the Byakugan bloodline limit in place, it's unrealistic for Obito to expect to easily defeat Hyuga Hizashi.
"whispering sound..."
Hizashi's attacks came one after another, which frustrated Obito. For him, now was the time to race against time, and he absolutely could not let this Hyuga clan ninja hold him back.
Sensing that Minato's Flying Thunder God Kunai was coming towards him, Obito dodged to the side, instantly transforming from a phantom into a physical form and grabbing Naruto in his hand. The next instant, the kunai pierced his right arm. However, strangely, no blood flowed from under Obito's torn clothes despite being stabbed by the kunai.
"stop!"
"Otherwise, this brat will die here!"
