Naruto: The secret in the wood escape barrier

"Believe it or not, this is a ninjutsu passed down from generation to generation by the Uchiha clan, so I have more say than you."

"The small size of your Hao Fire Ball only proves that your chakra control is not good."

"So what? You wouldn't be kind enough to teach others anyway."

"Indeed, I don't have the time to teach." Obito replied leisurely.

"Huh." Xiao Jing turned his head away, not planning to pay attention to him anymore.

"But there is an exception for you."

"Eh?"

Obito's words surprised Xiao Jing, and he could feel a glimmer of expectation flashing in the child's eyes.

"But I have to take care of the urgent matter at hand first."

Entering the residence of the Uchiha clan, Minato didn't see anyone along the way, and he felt vaguely uneasy in his heart.

When he arrived at Fugaku's residence, he jumped into the house and rushed directly to Fugaku's room.

The scene before him was what he least wanted to see.

The former friend was now a cold corpse. Looking to the side, there was Mikoto Uchiha who was crying silently, and Sasuke who was crying for his father.

"Brother Fugaku..."

"As you can see, he is dead." Mikoto said with her head lowered.

"Please grief."

Minato knew that the other person didn't need much verbal comfort at this time, so he chose to remain silent and stand beside her.

"Unfortunately, Uchiha Shisui was killed during the peace talks. Fugaku knew that he was negligent and was to blame, so he died to show his loyalty. The Uchiha clan is willing to accept any punishment." Mikoto said.

"Shisui is really...Brother Fugaku..."

Minato was so sad that he couldn't continue talking for a while.

Sasuke was still crying. He was still young and could not understand why his father, who had just encouraged him, chose to commit suicide, nor could he accept the fact that his father was dead.

"Don't worry," Minato knelt down and patted Mikoto's shoulder gently: "I understand Brother Fugaku's loyalty."

"I have already dealt with the small group of people who rebelled. My opinion is that the remaining Uchiha clan members will no longer be pursued. However, this still needs to be reviewed by the Konoha Advisory Group. But don't worry, I will do my best. Fight for Uchiha’s rights.”

Mikoto just stared at the dead Fugaku blankly without answering.

Obito and Xiao Jing said a few more words and felt that the time was almost up, so they came out of time and space.

"It's been too long. Is there something important to discuss?"

But he thought about it.

"If we want to discuss something, it doesn't matter if Mikoto is here. Even Sasuke doesn't avoid it. Could it be that something happened?"

But before he could think about it, he saw several shurikens coming from under the tree. Since his attention was always on the direction of Fugaku's room, Obito didn't notice until the shurikens were approaching.

Fortunately, Kamui activated his passive skill and the shuriken passed through Obito's body.

He looked under the tree, looking for the attacker, but suddenly felt a chill running down his spine. Obito turned around quickly, only to see Itachi Uchiha slashing from above with his sword.

Obito hurriedly activated his divine power, and the knife passed through Obito's body and hit the tree trunk directly. Because the force was too strong, the knife got stuck. Obito took advantage of Itachi's time to draw the knife and hurriedly retreated to another tree.

"The body has become insubstantial?" Itachi, who discovered Obito's ability, realized that this person was not easy to deal with.

"Are you the guy who calls himself 'Madara Uchiha'?" Itachi asked, pulling out his sword.
