Naruto: The Primal Hyuga Pierces the Shinobi World

"call out--"

Just as Minato had settled Kushina, a spatial fluctuation suddenly appeared in the safe house.

Minato, who was immersed in sadness, suddenly grabbed a kunai in his hand and turned around to look behind him.

He had assumed that it was Obito, who was proficient in space-time ninjutsu, who had chased him here.

However, upon turning around, they saw a group of powerful Hyuga clan ninjas suddenly appear in the safe house.

Nearly a hundred elite ninjas filled this safe house, which was over 100 square meters in size, to the brim.

The leading ninja was none other than Hyuga Hiashi, who wore a headband and a green vest, and beside him stood Hyuga Shinichi, who was as tall as Hiashi's waist.

The spatial fluctuations emanated from Shinichi.

"you..."

Even Minato was momentarily stunned upon seeing the arriving Hyuga clan elites.

He never imagined that he would receive support from the Hyuga clan ninjas at this critical juncture.

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Minato felt a slight surge of emotion. Leading the group was Hiashi Hyuga, the very head of the Hyuga main clan. For a clan like the Hyuga to send such a large contingent was practically an all-out effort.

Although he was grateful for the Hyuga family's help, Minato couldn't hide his disappointment.

Minato turned his head silently, still focusing his attention on Kushina and Naruto, wanting to cherish the last moments he could spend with his family.

"This is...."

Hiashi's Byakugan instantly grasped the situation. He could clearly sense that Kushina's life force was rapidly diminishing, and he also did not see the terrifying and enormous chakra of the Nine-Tails within Kushina's body.

Seeing Minato's dejected appearance and Kushina's weak state, Hiashi understood what had happened.

Hizashi's escort mission... failed!

"Minato-sensei, what are you still doing here?"

"Find out the Nine-Tails quickly."

"There's still time...!"

Just as everyone was immersed in this oppressive atmosphere, Shinichi Hyuga frowned and quickly reminded them.

His words instantly attracted Minato's attention.

"Is it still not too late...?"

Minato, as if grasping at a lifeline, abruptly turned to look at Shinichi Hyuga and said anxiously:

"Shinichi, what do you mean by 'it's not too late'?"

This was the first time Shinichi had ever seen Minato so out of sorts. In Shinichi's eyes, Minato had always been confident and composed.

Ultimately... even the exceptional Minato Namikaze was still a human being with deep emotions.

Minato was anxious, but Shinichi remained incredibly calm. Hearing Minato's question, he made no attempt to keep him in suspense.

"That's what it means."

“I can see that the Nine-Tails inside Kushina-sensei has disappeared.”

"A Jinchuriki who has lost their Tailed Beast will only face death."

"but...."

"That's an ordinary Jinchuriki! An ordinary Jinchuriki dies the moment they lose their Tailed Beast!"

"But Kushina-sensei is a member of the Uzumaki clan, and the Uzumaki clan's strong vitality means that even if her tailed beast is removed, she will not die immediately."

"And this period of time is enough for us to do a lot of things!"

"As long as we can seal the tailed beasts back, Kushina-sensei won't die!"

Shinichi's previous preparations were unable to change the situation where Kushina had the Nine-Tails extracted. Although his arrangements were quite thorough, Obito Uchiha's Kamui was unpredictable and difficult to control. Even if one knew the other's background, it was hard to say whether they could definitely stop him.

Many ninjas in the ninja world know the principle of Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique, but aren't the only ones who have managed to escape with their lives from the Flying Thunder God Technique the Abby duo from the Cloud Ninja?

Knowing Obito's abilities is one thing, but being able to deal with Kamui is another.

but...

Despite the current situation, it has not yet reached a dead end!

The intelligence that Shinichi possesses is always one of his greatest trump cards.

A Jinchuriki dies if their Tailed Beast is removed?!

That's ancient history!

"what?!"

"Shinichi, what did you say?!"

"If we can seal the Tailed Beasts back, will Kushina be able to escape her fate of death?!"

Are you sure?

Minato's eyes lit up when he heard Shinichi's words; his gloomy life suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.

To be honest, after learning that Kushina had been stripped of her tailed beast, Minato even considered committing suicide with her.

But Shinichi's words gave him hope of survival.

"Trying anything as a last resort."

"If the Hyuga clan's records are correct."

Shinichi didn't make any overly definitive statements, while also reassuring himself about his sources of information.

The Hyuga clan is a great clan with a history of thousands of years. Upon hearing this, Minato didn't think much of it and became even more excited.

"boom--"

Just as they were talking, a terrifying and evil chakra suddenly descended upon Konoha Village.

A roar came from somewhere in the village, and the Nine-Tails' chakra instantly appeared in everyone's perception field.

"Kyuubi!"

"Minato-sensei, the Nine-Tails has appeared!"

"Kushina-sensei is protected by our Hyuga clan. Whether or not we can save Kushina-sensei's life depends on you!"

The moment Shinichi sensed the appearance of the Nine-Tails' chakra, he felt a pang of fear.

You'll never feel anything unless you face that power directly; even he was feeling his heart pounding at that moment.

Will he participate in the battle against Obito? Or will he participate in the battle against Kurama (the Nine-Tails)?!

Shinichi wouldn't be so foolish as to put himself in danger. Although his combat strength was decent and he could play a role in the battle, the risks and rewards were disproportionate.

I am not yet old, so I should not be reckless.

Now, all he needs to do is provide intelligence; the rest is simply to avoid causing trouble for Minato.

As for Kurama and Obito... Minato Namikaze will take action!

"Hiashi, Shinichi, everyone in the Hyuga clan, I'm entrusting Kushina to you!"

Minato knew that time was of the essence, and after saying that, he instantly disappeared into the safe house.

Chapter 39 The Determination to Become Stronger!

The moment Obito Uchiha summoned the Nine-Tails' enormous body to Konoha, it had already crushed countless houses.

It was nighttime, and most of the Konoha villagers, who didn't have much entertainment at night, went home to rest early.

Who knows how many corpses will be buried beneath the houses crushed by the tailed beasts tonight?

"Roar--"

The Nine-Tailed Fox's roar transformed into a terrifying shockwave that shot outwards in all directions. In an instant, a fierce wind arose, and some nearby houses were reduced to ruins by the shockwave.

It was only then that the residents of Konoha Village realized that a tailed beast had appeared in the village.

With its ferocious chakra and terrifying size, the Nine-Tails shone like a blazing sun in the darkness; how could anyone fail to notice its presence?

Even the Sharingan reflected in Kurama's eyes attracted the attention of many ninjas.

Tonight was supposed to be an important night for Kushina's delivery. Although the Konoha leadership arranged for Kushina to give birth outside the village, security inside the village was still very tight to prevent any accidents.

Not long after the Nine-Tails appeared, many ninjas who had realized what was happening spontaneously headed towards the Nine-Tails without needing the Hokage's command.

Meanwhile, the villagers, who had weathered many storms during the war, followed their usual drills and, at the moment the accident occurred, rushed towards the refuge under the Fire Shadow Rock with their families.

In an instant, the streets were filled with chaotic crowds running around.

Rocks and rubble, blown away by the shockwave, fell from the sky and rained down on the bustling city. This was merely the aftershock of the tailed beast's roar, and it wasn't even the very center of the disaster. However, these rocks and rubble that fell into the city were deadly weapons that could easily take lives.

Some civilians, fleeing without noticing the sudden attack, were struck and fell into pools of blood, their fate unknown.

Human selfishness and brilliance are fully revealed in times of crisis.

Some fleeing people noticed the injured person and stopped to help them up; others, young and strong, abandoned their wives and children, shedding all burdens, caring only about escaping for their own lives.
