Naruto: My version is ahead of the ninja world

Chapter 50 Winning Hearts and Minds

Somewhat unexpectedly, Yu Xian sensed that the surrounding natural energy was being "disturbed." After careful observation, he adapted to the feeling and realized that he was being followed.

It's not unacceptable that he's been noticed, after all, this is Konoha Village.

"An ANBU ninja? Would an ANBU ninja be targeting me at a time like this? What do I have... well, I guess I am pretty suspicious."

If Yugen were to "stroll" around Konoha in his current form, he might be identified as the instigator of the Nine-Tails' rampage if he were strong enough... There's no way around it, he certainly has a villainous aura right now.

Unfortunately, his combat skills are rather average, and he doesn't have the eye power to control the Nine-Tails... He can't be a boss; at most, he's only equivalent to an elite monster.

"My abilities in the dungeon don't match my abilities in the real world. This is the first time this has happened. Comparing the two, it's clear that I have a stronger ability to manipulate natural energy in the dungeon..."

Yu Xian understood, but it wasn't unacceptable, because he didn't want to become a "snake-like" creature in reality...

His thoughts were not complicated: firstly, he should live as long as possible if he could, and secondly, if he could maintain his human form and continue to be human, he should not add any other biological characteristics to his body.

The Nine-Tails was wreaking havoc not far away. Yu Xian turned and entered a dark alley, then stopped in his tracks.

In the chaotic, noisy, and blood-stained night, even the bright moonlight was stained with the Nine-Tails' chakra, turning it into a chaotic hue.

Yu Xian turned around, waited a second or two, and then saw the figure of a ninja rushing into the alley.

"Who are you? You don't seem to be a ninja from the village."

Upon seeing the intruder dare to stop so arrogantly, the newcomer immediately questioned him.

In Yu Xuan's eyes, the Konoha ninja who was chasing him was rather thin and looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, but his physical features were unusually distinctive.

"Kakashi with the Sharingan..." Yu Xian directly revealed the other party's identity.

Kakashi Hatake was certain that Hagen was not a good person. He had come prepared for battle and had already revealed his Sharingan.

Although Kakashi Hatake's strength was only so-so at this time, it would be very difficult to get rid of a ninja like him without any cost, and a battle seemed inevitable.

Yu Xian sighed inwardly. He had originally intended to visit Naruto, but Kakashi had stopped him halfway there. If possible, he hoped to deal with him as quickly as possible.

Furthermore, considering Kakashi's qualities, we might expect him to "fall" into some special ninjutsu or chakra nature transformation.

So, is it possible for Kakashi to drop "Kamui"? If he can drop "Kamui", then it would be worth it for Yu Xian to give up this dungeon exploration plan.

Colored contact lenses paired with tattoos might even create a coordinated look.

"You know me?"

Kakashi looked at the person hiding in front of him and felt a sense of familiarity for some reason, but he couldn't pinpoint the source of this feeling.

Actually, it's because at this time, Yugen's temperament was very similar to Orochimaru's.

"You're a hero of the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, you're quite famous in the ninja world... There's even a bounty on your head in the black market," Yugen said.

He wasn't going to chat idly with Kakashi; in fact, he was prepared to use the most efficient way to deal with him: talk and verbal sparring.

This technology is very advanced, and Yu Xian is not sure if he can master it.

If problems could be solved with words, then "talking" would always be faster than "taking a taxi."

"Hide your head and show your tail, answer my question, who are you?"

Kakashi was still young at the time, and his expression changed noticeably after Hagen mentioned Kannabi Bridge... It was the place where he lost his best friend, and more importantly, he later broke his promise to that friend.

Yu Xian did not answer Kakashi's question. He removed the coat covering his head, revealing his face.

Kakashi, of course, didn't recognize him, but his appearance naturally made him more wary... Yugen looked like a lizardman, which was certainly visually striking.

Yu Xian, of course, wouldn't explain his origins, as it would be meaningless and a waste of time. He glanced up at the Nine-Tails in the distance, and then began to launch a heart-piercing attack on Kakashi.

"Hero...tsk, the Battle of Kannabi Bridge made you rediscover the ninja way, but the act of killing your own teammates made you fall into depravity. Objectively speaking, in both of these events, you were nothing more than a drifting duckweed."

"You are merely a ninja of the times, not the one who creates them."

"You bore the consequences, but the responsibility is not yours."

"But today is different. The attack of the Nine-Tails may seem to have nothing to do with you, but in reality, you are the mastermind behind tonight's disaster."

Kakashi frowned. He felt that the person opposite him knew him too well, so he unconsciously relinquished control of the conversation.

His performance in the Battle of Kannabi Bridge may not be difficult to investigate, but it is almost impossible for outsiders to know that he "killed his comrades".

He's involved in tonight's events? That's outrageous!

"What do you mean by that? Don't try to be mysterious."

"Very well, some people do evil deeds without realizing it, and can even appear in front of others in the guise of Konoha's guardians... I'll kindly explain it to them."

"The Uzumaki clan is special by nature. Some of the most talented members even have the ability to suppress the chakra of the tailed beasts, so they are natural candidates to become Jinchūriki."

"Under normal circumstances, once a member of the Uzumaki clan becomes a Jinchūriki, they can easily suppress the Tailed Beasts, and their sealing techniques are virtually unbreakable."

This is just Yu Gen talking nonsense. In reality, according to the description in Minato's biography, it was not easy for Kushina Uzumaki to control the Nine-Tails. She would often go berserk. After all, Kushina Uzumaki was not Mito Uzumaki. More importantly, the Nine-Tails was sealed inside her.

"So the question is, when will the seal on the Jinchuriki loosen?"

"The answer is simple: it's during childbirth when the person is a Jinchūriki."

"Therefore, Kushina Uzumaki's delivery time is a top secret of Konoha, and there are very few people in the entire ninja village who know this secret."

"However……"

"Someone close to the Jinchuriki revealed this secret at a very inopportune time."

"The saying goes that every pitiful person has something hateful about them. It was precisely because of this person's carelessness that the mastermind behind the scenes seized the opportunity to extract the Nine-Tails from the Jinchuriki."

What will be the fate of a Jinchuriki whose Tailed Beast has been extracted? Only death.

Kakashi was still somewhat confused at this point, but his expression turned even more grim when he thought about Kushina's fate.

"So who is this person who so carelessly leaked top secrets?"

"Kakashi Hatake, you can make a guess."

"Oh, I can give you a hint, um, the location of the so-called leak of classified information..."

"It's inside the mortuary."

Yu Xian is simply shifting the blame onto someone else. Kakashi never revealed the exact date of Kushina's delivery; he only used vague terms like "recently" or "in the near future."

However, once a false accusation is leveled against him, will Kakashi offer to defend himself?

No, he will only blame himself.
