Konoha: The Soul King from the Uchiha Clan

Chapter 102 Quite Clever

Obito's ninjutsu was naturally Izanagi, and the hand seals for Izanagi are the three seals of the Rabbit, Boar, and Sheep. However, Minato Namikaze has not yet seen any scrolls about Izanagi.

Although there was no massacre of the clan, Obito Uchiha still possessed the three-tomoe Sharingan.

Because after Madara Uchiha transplanted his Rinnegan into Nagato, he gave himself a three-tomoe Sharingan.

It was precisely the existence of this three-tomoe Sharingan that saved Obito Uchiha from certain death tonight!

Without this three-tomoe Sharingan, Obito Uchiha would have been able to use Izanagi with only his own Sharingan.

Although they could survive temporarily, they could not escape the precise sniping of the Flying Thunder God Technique.

The Flying Thunder God Technique cannot enter the Kamui dimension. Currently, only two people in the ninja world with the Kamui Mangekyou Sharingan are capable of entering the Kamui dimension.

Roar!

The roar of the Nine-Tails startled Minato Namikaze from his worries and thoughts. He immediately perked up and used the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave.

In the Nine-Tails battlefield, the summoning connection between Obito and the Nine-Tails was severed due to the contract seal, and the Mangekyou Sharingan alone was no longer enough to control the Nine-Tails.

The Nine-Tails broke free of control, and its eyes quickly went through the transformation from round pupils to three-tomoe pupils to vertical pupils.

This change wasn't witnessed by all ninjas, but a considerable number did, which inevitably caused some unease among them…

With the Sharingan's keen perception, the Uchiha clan naturally and accurately detected the changes in the Nine-Tails' pupils, which made many Uchiha ninjas look grim.

The person controlling the Nine-Tails may not be from the Uchiha clan in Konoha, but they must have Uchiha blood. To outsiders, they must have some connection to the clan.

Hiruzen Sarutobi also saw the three tomoe in the Nine-Tails' eyes. Thinking of the heavily injured Biwako Sarutobi, he couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with the Uchiha clan.

Because of Uchiha Gen's reminder, and just to be on the safe side, Sarutobi Hiruzen put inner armor under his wife's clothes.

Therefore, Obito's sudden attack did not kill Sarutobi Biwako immediately.

Another top-tier medical ninja named "Tanji" was also wearing inner armor and did not die immediately.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was outside Kushina's secret birthing site when the incident occurred. He rushed into the cave immediately and used medical ninjutsu to treat Hiruzen Biwako and Wadaji's injuries.

As a ninjutsu expert, it would be a gross exaggeration to say that he doesn't even know medical ninjutsu.

Therefore, Sarutobi Biwako did not die as in the original story.

In the original work, Minato Namikaze didn't say anything about Naruto's situation and even expressed understanding. This was probably due to his deep-rooted loyalty to Konoha and also because of his guilt.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's wife died while he was delivering her baby, and the Nine-Tails inflicted such great casualties and losses on Konoha...

Although the couple were not the culprits behind the breaking of the Nine-Tails' seal, as Hokage and Jinchuriki respectively, they ultimately failed to handle the situation properly and therefore must bear some responsibility.

Therefore, it was only right for him to sacrifice himself for Konoha, and it's not surprising that Naruto had a worse life.

Minato and Kushina probably shared similar thoughts.

Furthermore, out of trust in Naruto, she simply observed Naruto's experiences silently and never showed herself.

……

Even after breaking free from control, the Nine-Tails, driven by its hatred for Konoha, did not give up and launched an attack directly.

Moreover, compared to being controlled and only able to fight based on combat instincts, the Nine-Tails, having regained its independent consciousness, is undoubtedly much more powerful, and its attacks are much sharper than before.

Hiruzen Sarutobi was unable to use his Ruyi Jingu Bang to push the Nine-Tails, which had regained consciousness, any further; its fighting spirit was different from before.

The Nine-Tails wanted to enter Konoha and destroy the village founded by the two bastards who controlled and sealed it. Konoha ninjas rushed forward one after another, risking their lives to stop it, and casualties increased rapidly.

This was even after the Uchiha clan collectively used genjutsu to hypnotize and control the Nine-Tails.

The intense activation of the Sharingan genjutsu caused many Jonin with two-tomoe Sharingan to shed tears of blood, while a small number with three-tomoe Sharingan also shed tears of blood.

Only a few powerful individuals with the three-tomoe Sharingan, such as Uchiha Gen, Uchiha Fugaku, and Uchiha Shisui, did not shed tears of blood.

However, their eyes were also sore and uncomfortable, while only Uchiha Gen, who had reached the half-step Mangekyou Sharingan, seemed to be in complete control.

However, Uchiha Gen still pretended to be in pain.

Since they are all three-tomoe jades, they can't be too outstanding. They have to give face to others, especially to Fugaku, the clan head and minister.

The Uchiha clan's frequent control, coupled with Kurama's already deep dislike for Uchiha Madara, led to Kurama's complete rage.

Kurama used its nine tails to drive away the other ninjas, ignoring their attacks. It opened its mouth wide and directly gathered Yin-Yang Chakra, preparing to use a Tailed Beast Ball to kill all the Uchiha present.

Seeing the Tailed Beast Ball rapidly condensing and aiming at them, the Uchiha Jonin were terrified and spared no chakra, using their full power to activate their Body Flicker Technique to dodge.

Genya Uchiha also sensed a death crisis. Although it wasn't very strong, he prepared to burn his lifespan to increase his speed just to be on the safe side...

Just then, a giant toad descended from the sky and landed on the Nine-Tails' neck, interrupting its spellcasting. Its head slammed into the ground with a loud thud, sending up clouds of dust, a gust of wind, and the earth trembling.

From the sky, Gamabunta's size doesn't even completely cover the upper half of Kurama's body.

The next moment, Minato Namikaze appeared and landed on a pile of ruins.

"Everyone, buy me a little time!" Minato shouted.

"Hokage-sama, who attacked our Konoha?"

Uchiha Gen's eyes lit up, and he shouted at the top of his lungs.

This is a great opportunity to clear my name.

Fugaku, why can't you control yourself? What are you still running for?

Unlike me, I'm incredibly clever!

Upon hearing Uchiha Gen's shout, all the ninjas present turned their gazes to Namikaze Minato, clearly showing that they were also quite concerned about this issue.

Seeing those pairs of eyes, especially the dozen or so pairs of Sharingan eyes from the Uchiha clan that were flowing with blood and tears and filled with exhaustion, Minato Namikaze was deeply moved.

Although that guy also has Sharingan, the Uchiha clan of Konoha are completely different from him.

"His exact identity is unclear, but he should be related to Uchiha Madara, and may be his descendant!" Minato Namikaze responded loudly.

Most people are completely clueless when they hear the name Uchiha Madara, while only a very few are terrified.

A few people who knew about Madara Uchiha's exploits recalled the time when Madara controlled the Nine-Tails to attack Konoha...

Given that Madara Uchiha did such a thing back then, it is not surprising that his descendants would launch another attack.

Roar!

However, the current situation did not allow the Konoha ninjas time to think things through. The Nine-Tails suddenly stood up, flung Gamabunta, the toad on its back, far away, roared, and its claws and tail slammed down in mid-air.

The Konoha ninjas snapped out of their daze and hurriedly tried to dodge, but some were still unable to escape in time and died.

"Keep the Nine-Tails occupied!"

Minato shouted and then charged forward.

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately unleashed a barrage of ninjutsu, causing the Nine-Tails to roar repeatedly. Then, the Uchiha clan ninjas seized the opportunity, ignoring the soreness in their eyes, and collectively used the Sharingan genjutsu once again, causing the Nine-Tails to lose its focus for a second and a half.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Minato Namikaze flashed to the top of Kurama's head, slapped Kurama's head, and poured out his limited chakra to activate the Flying Thunder God Technique.

The next moment, the Nine-Tails vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed at all, were it not for the surrounding ruins serving as a reminder...
