Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan.

Chapter 3 Obito's Exposure

Another contract appears, with two chips.

Minato Namikaze pondered the other's words, focusing on the piece of information he was interested in, and the hidden power of Konoha.

The hint is quite clear: if one can borrow this power, then it is obvious that the source of this power will be someone one knows well, or someone who has good intentions towards Konoha.

And that intelligence...

He controls the Nine-Tails, but he's not Madara Uchiha, so...

Although I could guess part of it, but...

Minato Namikaze glanced at the composed figure opposite him. The other party's intentions were quite clear, and he still dared not gamble.

This isn't a battlefield where you can probe the accuracy of intelligence through attacks. This concerns the future of Konoha, Kushina's life or death, and... Naruto!

"I agree to...the contract!"

A voice, filled with both helplessness and determination, rang out: the contract was established.

Uchiha Yun smiled and held up one finger: "The first person you can ask for help from... Hatake Kakashi!"

???

"How could that be?"

Minato Namikaze was stunned for the first time. You should know that even with the most shocking information, he had never focused his attention on the cloud.

At this moment, it was because he was too familiar with the person who came out of Yun's mouth. From the Hatake-ryu sword technique to the Raikiri that could cut through lightning, Minato Namikaze knew all these abilities very well.

Compared to the enemy intelligence he had just received, he couldn't figure out how Kakashi could help him.

Yun, on the other side, waved her hand slightly: "Surprised, aren't you? In fact, even Kakashi himself probably doesn't know his own ability right now—the power of that Mangekyou Sharingan!"

Kaleidoscope Sharingan?

Minato Namikaze thought of many things in an instant, and for the first time, he lost his composure.

Another Mangekyou Sharingan, and based on the words of the mysterious black figure in front of him, it was highly likely that the enemy was not Uchiha Madara.

But the contract for summoning the Nine-Tails...

Uchiha, the one-eyed Uchiha, the Uchiha who defected from Konoha, or perhaps the missing—no! The one whose body is not at the memorial tablet!

...Obito!

Yun continued, "Kakashi's Sharingan had actually evolved to the Mangekyou Sharingan level a long time ago, but because he wasn't an Uchiha, he hadn't yet realized this power."

"And now I can tell you that this power is... very restrained against that person. By the way, I think with the wisdom of the Fourth Hokage, he should have already guessed his identity."

"Then the second person hidden in Konoha's power... Uchiha Fugaku, or... Uchiha Shisui."

Looking at the shocked Fourth Hokage, Yun said, "Kakashi's eye ability requires guidance from the Uchiha. As the Fourth Hokage, you have formed a good relationship with the Uchiha. If you remember this help in the future, perhaps you will be able to achieve three and a half pairs of Mangekyou Sharingan while remaining loyal to Konoha."

"And this is what I meant earlier about the future."

Before Minato Namikaze could calm down, Yun continued, "The Third Hokage, once known as a hero of the ninja world, is old now. Looking at the children playing happily in the village, he actually resists anything that might disrupt peace."

"But in this day and age, yielding means weakness. Yielding to former classmates, yielding to former...disciples, yielding to enemy nations..."

Yun stared at Minato Namikaze opposite him: "You are the Fourth Hokage, known as the Yellow Flash, and only you can change all of this. With you alive, countless tragedies will not be repeated."

"Every step you take in the future will have a profound impact on the world. There is even a high probability that it will help to continue peace."

As soon as he finished speaking, Minato Namikaze, who was sitting opposite him, relaxed and smiled helplessly at the dark figure opposite him.

"Although I don't know who you are, to make such a comment about me as if peace has been restored is truly... shameful."

"And from these words, I can tell... you must also be someone who longs for peace. It was because of these assumptions that I agreed to the contract for those four chips."

"So... is there any more bait? It smells pretty good." ^_^

Yun, sitting opposite him, shook his head slightly, smiled, and said, "I've already told you enough, and you don't have any more chips to play."

Minato Namikaze smiled and nodded: "I've learned a lot today... Thank you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he got up and disappeared.

……

In the Uchiha clan compound, Uchiha Yun, sitting in a room, looked up at the clock.

"Click!"

Sure enough, no matter how long you stay in the intelligence exchange, the outside world is just a fleeting moment.

The negotiation table seems to make the atmosphere quite dull. Next time, turning it into the Hokage Rock would be a good idea. It could have a certain psychological impact on the client, and the special effects in the air would make it more believable, wouldn't they?

……

The Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, lived in his home.

Standing by the bed, Minato was pondering the information he had just received, while Kushina, lying on the bed, was staring at him, her estrogen levels rising during her pregnancy, and her anger growing ever stronger.

"Water...gate!!!"

"boom!"

With a single punch, the Fourth Hokage of Konoha... was knocked out!

Who am I? Where am I? What was I going to do?

Having crawled out from among the broken furniture, Minato was bewildered by the three questions about life, scratching his head in confusion.

Kushina, lying on the bed, had tears in her eyes: "I'm giving birth tomorrow. I asked you to get a glass of water, and you went to the living room, stood there for a second, and then ran back without even moving your hand. Is...is this how you treat someone so carelessly?"

Minato paused for a moment, then remembered that he had indeed been preparing to fetch water for Kushina before being pulled into that exchange.

Uh……

"sorry!"

"I...I forgive you."

Minato went to the living room to get more water, but his mind was still preoccupied with the information he had received.

There's only one day left...

The Nine-Tails' summoning contract...

If everything goes perfectly...

We must take action now!

"I have to go out for a bit."

Kushina, who had just taken a sip of water, paused for a moment and asked, "Is there an emergency this late?"

At this time, her husband, who is the Hokage, is about to leave. Thinking about her due date tomorrow, Kushina couldn't help but feel nervous.

Minato smiled and took Kushina's hand: "Don't worry, trust me! We've made all the necessary preparations. You rest first, and I'll tell you everything when I get back."

Kushina nodded obediently; when it came to serious matters, she had never held anyone back.

Even the title of "Yellow Flash" and his numerous achievements before becoming Hokage were inseparable from Kushina's sealing techniques.

Minato Namikaze donned the Hokage cloak and hat, and appeared at Kakashi's house after a golden flash.

That was a gift from Minato when Kakashi became a Jonin—a Flying Thunder God kunai engraved with his unique technique.

……

I changed two words in the first three chapters. Honestly, as the Hokage, I wouldn't trust a stranger unless it was bait. Explaining the stakes and using bait is the only way to get what you want.

Moreover, the first transaction was related to the Nine-Tails' rampage and the protagonist's chances of survival, so...
