Naruto: I'm really not an evil scientist!

Minato Namikaze was holding Kushina, comforting her, while Tsunade was holding a baby in her arms.

The baby's loud cries filled the entire space, announcing the birth of a new life.

However, upon seeing the woman holding the child, Obito's expression instantly froze, his mind filled with doubt: "Why? Why is Tsunade here? Doesn't she have hemophobia? Why is she here?"

Obito's arrival made the atmosphere in the entire space even colder.

The spies who were on high alert immediately noticed his movements. One of them quickly drew a kunai and shot it toward the masked man.

Obito's gaze grew increasingly cold as he ignored the medical ninjas and ANBU, reaching out to grab the weakened Kushina Uzumaki.

In his mind, regardless of why Tsunade was there, he didn't care about the three of them at all.

He was only worth mentioning his teacher, Minato Namikaze, but even in a one-on-two situation, he was confident he could defeat Tsunade and Minato Namikaze.

Moreover, the other party was holding a child in his arms, so how could he be stopped?

Tsunade, who was standing nearby, immediately noticed when Obito entered, and saw that his target was Kushina.

She first glanced at Naruto in her arms, her delicate brows furrowing slightly, before dodging Obito's attack.

At the same time, just as Obito was wondering why Tsunade was ignoring Kushina's actions, he suddenly heard a sharp sound of air being cut and a kunai flew towards him.

Obito ignored the kunai and let it pass through his head, his hand reaching straight for Kushina.

Although he didn't understand Tsunade's actions, he couldn't let this opportunity slip by.

Minato activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, transferring his wife and children to the other side of the room at the last second.

"Quick reaction, huh?" the masked man exclaimed, his tone dripping with sarcasm. "But how long can you protect them?"

"Rasengan!" A dazzling blue chakra ball formed in his palm and hurtled straight at the enemy's face.

The masked man neither dodged nor avoided the Rasengan, which pierced through his body again and blasted a large hole in the wall.

Before the Dark Forces attacked again, he re-entered the ethereal state and retreated to a corner to confront them.

"you!"

Chapter 85 Uh, I can't take it anymore!

"You are!" Minato Namikaze asked coldly.

The masked man remained motionless.

Seeing this, the Anbu did not continue to attack and remained by Kushina's side.

"What are you all standing there for? Take Kushina out of here!" Tsunade handed the still-crying Naruto to the medical ninjas beside her and roared at them.

Several medical ninjas quickly carried Kushina, whose expression was weak and complicated, out of the room, led by Shizune.

With her husband's reminder and Obito's look in his eyes, Kushina had already guessed that the person must be Obito.

Obito, cornered by Tsunade and Minato Namikaze, paid no attention to their departing target, but instead stared intently at the Fourth Hokage, Minato, and Tsunade in front of him.

Compared to Kushina, he was more wary of the two people in front of him.

Minato looked at Obito in front of him with an extremely complicated expression.

"I thought it might be you who showed up today, but I never expected you would actually come." Minato Namikaze's voice carried a hint of pain.

In fact, he knew that there was no way to salvage the situation from the moment the other party came to Konoha to investigate.

But when it came to actually facing his disciple in battle, Minato Namikaze felt incredibly depressed.

Tsunade removed her white coat, which was hindering the fight, and changed into her ninja clothes. She said indifferently, "Stop talking nonsense. Since he has chosen to make a move, there is no turning back, right? Konoha's rogue ninja, Uchiha Obito."

Looking at his teacher and Tsunade opposite him, Obito Uchiha remained silent, then took out an iron chain.

There's not much to say between him and Minato Namikaze; he's single-mindedly focused on turning this hellish world into a perfect one.

A moment later, Tsunade punched the rock wall, creating a huge dent.

Tsunade couldn't help but frown and reluctantly withdrew her hand, but Obito, who had been fighting them for three minutes, had already disappeared.

Throughout the battle, Obito, thanks to the power of Kamui, did not suffer much substantial damage and retreated calmly.

Minato Namikaze stepped forward, picked up a white object from the ground, and sighed as well.

It was covered with a special mark, left when he hit Obito with the Rasengan.

However, before he could use the mark to track it, the white object fell off Obito's body.

That white external body was a device Obito used to defend against the Flying Thunder God.

Minato looked at the white fragment in his hand, sighed, shook his head, and said, "This guy's eyes are too strange; it's going to be too difficult to catch him!"

Unless Kakashi helps, there might be a chance, given Kakashi's abilities.

Hiruko saw everything that was happening clearly on the monitor and pondered to himself.

If we can capture Obito and thoroughly study his Kamui dimension, then many things can be put on the agenda.

Spatial theory covers a very wide range of topics. Theoretically, the Flying Thunder God Technique can counter Obito's Mangekyou Sharingan.

If technology wants to counter Shenwei, it needs to research technologies based on space, or even create space-based technologies.

Hiruko stared intently at Obito's eyes in the monitor, a power he desperately wanted to acquire.

As Tsunade walked, she asked, "He fought us for three minutes. Could it be that his abilities are limited?"

"The last time, things also went wrong because it took more than three minutes."

Obito fought the Konoha ninja twice. The first time was when he invaded Konoha to investigate the Nine-Tails, and the second time was this time.

He still voluntarily withdrew from the battlefield after three minutes, which makes me wonder if his ability has some kind of limitation, such as a time limit or a chakra limit.

“Possibly.” Minato nodded.

"The power of the Mangekyou Sharingan, when used for a long time, is an extremely heavy burden for the Uchiha clan."

“Even if he has the cells of the First Hokage, he can’t squander chakra indefinitely.” Minato agreed, frowning.

Tsunade then asked, "So, do you think these three minutes are the limit, or haven't reached the limit yet?"

After pondering for a moment, Minato said, "It depends on whether he reached his limit in the previous battle with us, or whether he held back. But last time he was indeed beaten half to death."

Minato Namikaze looked somewhat somber and sighed, saying, "He's not as naive as he used to be."

“If it were the old Obito, I think it would have been fine three minutes ago, since Obito didn’t know how to hide back then. But this Obito might be fake, and everything is uncertain now.”

"I see."

The two walked out of the cave while talking.

Inside the forest, twenty members of the Anbu and Jiraiya, who had entered Sage Mode, were seen guarding Kushina and Naruto, waiting to observe.

Those around him were immediately relieved when they saw Minato Namikaze emerge.

Shizune, who was standing next to Jiraiya, visibly relaxed and walked over to Tsunade. She was pleased to see that Tsunade had no injuries.

Tsunade comforted her, saying, "Everything is fine. You still have to believe in my strength."

Tsunade laughed heartily; she was quite confident in her own strength.

Minato stood behind Tsunade, looking at Kushina who was holding Naruto, and felt a warmth in his heart as well.

Hiruko looked over here, completely unable to make a move, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly that his speed was really too slow.

Hiruko thought to himself that he really couldn't keep up with these high-speed ninjas. He realized he really needed to speed up his efforts to learn the Flying Thunder God Technique.

Obito glanced at the unchanging black and white Zetsu out of the corner of his eye, his expression calm.

His fight with Minato and Tsunade was not to test their strength, but to create a false impression to conceal his true abilities.

However, he didn't trust Hei Bai Jue, and he wouldn't tell the other party how long his divine power would last.

Both Black Zetsu and White Zetsu were Madara Uchiha's people, not truly serving him.

"Where is Kakashi now?" White Zetsu sensed something from his tone.

"I need greater power." A cold light flashed in Obito's eyes.

"One Mangekyou Sharingan isn't enough, then I'll use two. I'm going to use absolute power to control the situation from here on out."

He secretly decided that he would have the White Zetsu operation begin to locate Kakashi, since Kakashi's Sharingan was the key to his mastery of the dual Kamui.

To dominate the ninja world, one must naturally begin with the dual Kamui.

Kakashi, of course, had no idea that his good friend was about to come knocking on his door.

On the second day after Obito's invasion, the winds of the Fourth Shinobi World War began to howl, and the shadow of war gradually enveloped the entire shinobi world.

Finally, war mobilization began, and everyone was frantically buying supplies.

Chapter 86 The Widow

Because everyone anticipated that this war would be exceptionally fierce.

This highest-level war mobilization incorporated all men and women capable of fighting into the combat ranks.

In the past, Konoha would never have acted this way, since some people always had to be left to protect their homeland.

But now, perhaps the war is so fierce that we have to exert all our strength to avoid worrying about the rear being empty, since the enemy is still on the battlefield.

Hiruko stared at the ninja roster and couldn't help but sigh, "Twelve thousand people? Konoha has fallen so weak, yet they still insist on conscripting them."

He raised his hand to rub his forehead, his gaze falling on the roster handed over by Minato Namikaze, and sighed again, "The Third Shinobi World War was too difficult, greatly reducing Konoha's manpower."

Konoha follows a system of one ninja number per person. Naruto's ninja number is 012607. This shows that since then, the total number of Konoha ninjas throughout history has been no more than ten thousand.

However, this only includes those on record; many members of each family are not included in the ninja statistics.

However, considering the battlefield achievements and commemorative significance of ninjas throughout history, and combining statistics from various sources, the actual number of people in Konoha may only be slightly over ten thousand.

Therefore, apart from the major clans, the other mission teams in Konoha are mostly led by a few elites and a majority of mediocre fighters.

These people who joined Konoha were either not formally incorporated into the organization for various reasons, or even had unknown origins; everyone knew this without saying a word.

In these turbulent times, everyone in Konoha knew that this war would be incredibly difficult, but in order to protect their homeland, they had no choice but to step forward, even if it meant facing mountains of knives and seas of fire.

As Hiruko looked at the list, he pondered to himself.

The reason why the Konoha Ninja Academy's training model for ninjas is so elite is entirely due to limited resources. These resources can only be concentrated on a small number of promising talents who have the potential to become main force officers.
