This mother, whose life had just begun, left this world with reluctance for her children and worries for her lover.
She did not die peacefully, even unwillingly.
But among all her last emotions, there was no resentment or hatred.
Although her life was short, it was worth it.
"Kushina..."
Tsunade looked at the blood on Kushina's face and body, and then looked at the blood on her hands. She suddenly realized that she didn't seem to recognize these familiar liquids.
A chill spread from the bottom of her heart to her whole body, and she leaned against the wall shivering like a helpless and frightened child.
Biwako on the side sighed deeply.
…
Near Hokage Rock.
Uchiha Tu crossed his arms and stood on the head of Nine Tails, looking down at the front.
Tonight, due to his arrival, the entire Konoha Village was brightly lit, and the dim lights swayed between the houses, like lanterns hanging in the sky.
There were noisy sounds coming from the distance.
"Nissan, is a village like this really worth your efforts?"
Uchiha looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar village in front of him, his eyes full of complexity.
The nine giant tails of the Nine Tails next to him were still beating the air wantonly, and the huge force made the surrounding air roar.
Just then, Minato finally arrived.
He stood on the Hokage Rock and looked at Uchiha standing on the head of Nine-Tails with complex eyes. The reckless but cute boy in the past no longer existed.
Minato didn't talk nonsense. The chakra in his hand immediately condensed into gas, mist, and smoke, and then spun into a ball. Then, the light blue chakra overflowing all around dragged out a long tail.
"Da Jade Rasengan!"
Minato shouted loudly, and while throwing several flying thunder god kunai, he pushed the rasengan towards the Uchiha map.
“Nice look!”
Facing Minato who was approaching in an instant, Uchiha Tu showed no signs of panic. He glanced at Minato with contempt and sneered: "In autumn, fallen leaves will eventually return to their roots. Namikaze Minato, the big tree of Konoha cannot be saved...
…”
Saying that, Uchiha activated his eye power, controlled the nine tails to leap high, and fired the tailed beast jade at Minato who was already in front of him.
boom!
The tailed beast jade condensed very quickly, and in just a moment, it was close to Minato. The light blue jade rasengan in his hand, the size of a basketball, seemed insignificant in front of the black and purple tailed beast jade, which was more than ten meters in diameter.
.
A drop of cold sweat slid down his face.
Minato's eyes narrowed, and he touched the ninja tool bag on his waist with his left hand. Two flying thunder god kunai flew out instantly, one was held in his mouth, and the other was held in his left hand.
"Flying Thunder God Technique! Turn!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a whoosh, and the tailed beast jade disappeared. The big jade rasengan held in Minato's right hand instantly enlarged in Uchiha Tu's eyes!
Hiss...tweet,tweet,tweet...!
"Chidori Spear!"
A blue light flashed, and Uchiha waved the Chidori Spear in his hand, hitting Minato's Big Jade Rasengan.
Boom!
In front of Kyuubi, huge white smoke instantly rose.
Bang bang bang... clang clang clang!
Although the smoke and dust had not dispersed, the sound of fierce fighting could be heard from inside. Minato and Uchihatu started fighting with punches and kicks while falling from the air.
The two of them neither used ninjutsu, kunai, pupil techniques, or sealing techniques. Instead, they vented the anger in their hearts in this most primitive way.
At this moment, in front of them——
One is an enemy who killed his parents and destroyed his family;
One is an enemy who killed his wife and tried to destroy the village;
Uchihatu won't give in!
So does Minato!
They understand that in this battle, only one person will survive in the end.
Bang bang bang...boom...
Minato punched Uchiha Tout's nose and crooked it.
Long... thump thump thump...
Uchiha Tu kicked Minato on the cheek.
The two glared at each other fiercely, wiped the blood from the corners of their mouths, and started fighting again.
Boom boom boom...boom boom...long——!
Finally, this blow gave the two of them a chance to breathe.
"Namikaze Minato, you are very good!"
Uchiha Tu spat blood on the ground and quickly backed away. After all, he didn't come here to fight.
Moreover, unlike Minato, he has the advantage that determines the outcome: a pair of Mangekyō Sharingan, and the most powerful Nine Tails among the tailed beasts.
On the other side, seeing Uchiha Tu leaving, Minato did not choose to chase him. He knew very well that what he needed to do most now was to seal the Nine-Tails, not kill Uchiha Tu.
After all, it is Hokage's duty to protect the village.
"If Kyuubi is here, I can't let go."
Minato looked at the huge mountain-like Kyuubi in the distance, and secretly made a calculation in his mind.
"You must first separate the Nine-Tails from the figure, otherwise the Nine-Tails cannot be sealed."
"After that... I can risk my life to fight him."
After making the decision, Minato decisively ignored Uchiha who was still retreating and focused his attention on Kyuubi.
Roar!
Minato's gaze made Kyuubi feel that it had been provoked. It waved its tail fiercely, drew out a wind blade, and hit Minato.
Minato reacted instantly. Just when he was about to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to leave here temporarily, several familiar figures stood in front of him.
The man at the front narrowed his slender eyes and looked calmly ahead.
Whoosh...oh!
Before the wind blade could get closer, the man pulled out his long sword and scattered the menacing wind blade with one blow.
Hoho!
Kyuubi became even more angry.
I saw it open its mouth wide open, drooling, and stared at the group of ninjas who suddenly appeared.
Its scarlet eyes flashed with a destructive light, as if it might launch an attack on the Konoha ninja at any time.
At the same time, Uchiha Tu landed firmly on Nine-Tails' head, holding his arms and looking down at everyone.
"Hatake Sakumo... Matt Dai... and Inokacho... these guys are all in the village!"
Just as he was thinking about countermeasures, a group of familiar strangers in the distance suddenly took action.
Long!
Akimichi Tingza activated the doubling technique, turning himself into a giant and waving his fist to hit Kyuubi.
Without saying a word, Matt Dai directly opened the seventh gate, stepped on the air, followed Akimichi Choza, and rushed towards Kyuubi.
"Don't you miss your old feelings at all... But that's fine, I can just experience a hearty battle!"
Uchiha Tu looked expressionlessly at Akimichi Tingza and Matt Dai who were rushing toward him, and at the same time, he secretly controlled the Nine-Tails to swing his arms and hit them!
Bang! Bang!
Akimichi Choza's right fist and Matt Dai's flying kick were blocked by Kyuubi's two arms.
Then, the Kyuubi swung out two tails, one of which violently knocked back the giant Akimichi Dingza, and the other knocked away Matt Dai, whose whole body was wrapped in blue sweat steam.
