35 Chapter 35 : Flying Thunder God

[The screen flickers, and as Minato is forced to leave, the masked man takes Kushina to a mountain stream.]

[The power of the dark seal is like a rope, tightly binding Kushina at its center.]

[And the Eight Trigrams Seal on Kushina's stomach is now extremely loose.]

[Sneering, the three-tomoe Sharingan in the masked man's eye whirls, and he weaves a seal with one hand.]

In the Pure Land, Uchiha Madara maintains an expressionless demeanor.

This technique was passed down to Obito by him, capable of activating the illusion he once cast on the Nine-Tails, allowing complete control over it!

[In the next moment, the Nine-Tails sealed within Naruto's body also displays the three-tomoe Sharingan in its eyes and becomes agitated.]

[The chains representing the Eight Trigrams Seal shatter.]

[Kushina's face contorts violently, the intense pain nearly overwhelming her senses.]

[At this moment, the massive and fiery chakra of the Nine-Tails begins to surge wildly from the seal.]

[A malevolent aura descends, shaping the immense red chakra torrent into the form of the Nine-Tails.]

[Under the blood moon, the Nine-Tails crashes onto the ground.]

"You didn't even hesitate, Obito!"

Kakashi is utterly shocked; extracting a tailed beast results in the death of the jinchuriki!

Yet Obito doesn't display any hesitation. In fact, his tone when mentioning releasing the tailed beast even carries a hint of vengeance!

...

Why vengeance?!

Unable to accept this scene, Kakashi can't help but roar.

"It was Rin who died to my Chidori, why didn't you come after me!"

"Useless! You're all useless!"

In the world of the Hokage, many who knew Uchiha Obito was Minato's student frowned.

Even if he was manipulated by Uchiha Madara, it had no bearing on the woman before him.

And Uchiha Madara, the source of it all, observes coldly.

Obito, who fell into darkness so readily, is nothing more than trash.

No more than before, no less in the future.

Meanwhile, in the real world, Obito curls into himself, avoiding the incessant voice that rings in his mind.

[The Nine-Tails bellows towards the sky.]

[The suppressed hatred drives it to madness, and the next moment, it raises its claws to seize helpless Kushina.]

[Yet this time, its grasp finds only emptiness.]

[At the crucial moment, Minato rescues Kushina, evading the attack.]

[Upon hearing that Minato has secured the child's safety, Kushina finally breathes a sigh of relief.]

[The following moment, Minato employs the Flying Thunder God technique, gently placing Kushina beside the baby.]

[The weakened Kushina gazes at the newborn, biting her lip tightly as tears stream down her cheeks.]

[She doesn't dare wipe her tears, yearning for a few more seconds.]

[But without intervention, she'll never see her child again after tonight.]

[She'll never witness her son growing up, never hear the laughter every mother desires.]

[Sorrow consumes her countenance, trembling as she utters the child's name.]

"Naruto..."

Off-screen, Naruto's eyes widen as if struck by lightning!

Yet that brightness fades swiftly.

He seems to conceal something, forcing a self-deprecating chuckle:

"Heh, Naruto, you fool. What are you thinking? It's just a coincidence."

"You could never have a mother like that."

Back in the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen tenses upon hearing Kushina's words, an unnatural expression crossing his face.

In the Cloud Shinobi Village, the Raikage furrows his brow.

"Naruto? Could it be Naruto from the last recording?"

"Unlikely. Have you ever heard that the Fourth Hokage left an heir?"

Within Konoha, perplexed glances are exchanged, doubts soon dismissed.

He's the Fourth Hokage's son, a hero's offspring. If he'd survived, everyone would know. He should've perished in the Nine-Tails' rampage.

[The scene continues]

[Minato's usually sunny face turns to ice; he's well aware of his wife's fate.]

[In the next moment, Minato dons the robes befitting the Fourth Hokage.]

[The camera perspective shifts as the masked man silently infiltrates Konoha.]

["Summoning Technique!"]

[With the call, the colossal Nine-Tails materializes!]

[In an instant, numerous structures crumble, and dozens lose their lives.]

[But this is just the beginning of the tragedy, as the rampaging and chaotic Nine-Tails resembles an ancient beast.]

[Wherever it treads, buildings crumble to ruins.]

[Ordinary folks either react too late or flee too slowly.]

[Within moments, scores of civilians perish.]

Tanjirou can't believe the scene before him!

The actions of this human are a hundred times more malevolent than any demon!

In the world of the Shinigami, Aizen lowers his gaze, a contemptuous smile playing on his lips.

"What an unsightly soul."

[Ninjas react with swiftness, and the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, re-enters the fray.]

[Yet it's essentially futile.]

[The numbers mean nothing against the Nine-Tails; they can't even slow it.]

[Growing impatient with destruction, the Nine-Tails gazes skyward, yin-yang chakra attributes gathering.]

[Within seconds, a purple Tailed Beast Bomb laden with terrifying energy condenses.]

**Boom!**

[The sound of bursting air fills the air as the Tailed Beast Bomb hurtles toward the Hokage Rock.]

[Sarutobi Hiruzen's face contorts; he comprehends the might of the Tailed Beast Bomb. He knows that if it detonates within the village, Konoha might vanish from the ninja world.]

[Then, in a flash, a figure appears atop the Hokage Rock, the trailing royal robes fluttering.]

[Minato arrives at the critical juncture!]

[Illuminating the scene, Minato's hands weave seals; intricate symbols manifest in the air before the Hokage Rock.]

[The space ripples like a curtain, and upon collision, the fearsome Tailed Beast Bomb decelerates, sinking into it.]

[Minato's countenance remains serene; a kunai with an inscribed seal rests in his hands.]

[Instantly, the Tailed Beast Bomb vanishes!]

[The next moment, the night sky transforms into daylight, a cataclysmic explosion like a rising sun surges hundreds of miles away!]
