I, who was determined to stay in Naruto, became the white moonlight

After thinking this through, Haruko slowed down her pace and quickly analyzed the situation in her mind.

It seems that either the strength of this masked man is inferior to that of Minato Namikaze, or his true identity is related to Minato Namikaze.

Before Haruko could screen out the suspects from the people around Minato Namikaze, the masked man moved.

When the masked man walked towards the door, Namikaze Minato and Haruko moved from the left and right to attack each other, which invisibly caused great psychological pressure on the masked man.

Seeing that they were about to reach him, the masked man's hand trembled and he threw the baby behind him. While Minato Namikaze dodged to catch it, he used his eye technique on Haruko.

When Haruko looked into the blood-red Sharingan, her pupils shrank sharply.

That's Uchiha's Sharingan!

This masked man is actually a member of the Uchiha clan!

The truth was so horrifying that Haruko didn't dodge it at the first moment and fell into the illusion.

The next second she quickly activated her pupil technique, and when she broke through the illusion and came back to her senses, a ball of light that turned from light yellow to bright red approached her.

It's a bomb!

Accompanied by a deafening roar, Haruko only had time to put her hands in front of her before being knocked out of her place by the powerful explosion.

On the other side, Minato Namikaze, who had landed on the ground, had no time to be thankful that the child was okay, because his fingers holding the swaddling baby suddenly touched something paper that shouldn't be there.

This is... a blasting talisman!

The runes on the explosion symbol emitted a faint light, and the surrounding air began to tremble.

Minato Namikaze's expression was frozen. At the moment the blasting talisman was about to explode, he untied the swaddling clothes and threw it away, protecting the child in his arms tightly when he was blown away by the airflow generated by the explosion.

The ground shook violently, and the wooden house that served as a temporary delivery room collapsed from the inside, wood chips and debris flying everywhere, and the impact of the explosion spread outward in circles.

As the explosion gradually subsided, the originally sturdy wooden house turned into a messy ruin, with only the rough base remaining.

The smoke and dust slowly dissipated, revealing Haruko, who was blown out of the house and fell on the lawn, and Minato Namikaze, who was injured in the leg in the distance. He ignored the pain and lowered his head to check if the child was okay.

Haruko struggled to support her body, cursing the brainless masked man in her heart.

Is it necessary to use so many blasting talismans just to deal with the two of them?!

The amount he uses is enough to blow up Konoha!

After her hands and feet regained some strength, Haruko struggled to get up. She didn't see Kushina in the delivery room. Her heart sank. It seemed that the masked man had taken her away.

"Hokage-sama, I'm going after the enemy!"

After nodding at her, Minato Namikaze pulled out the wooden thorn that had pierced his calf, held the child in his arms, and used the instant body-flickering technique to return to the home that had been marked in advance.

In the middle of a deep blue water, there was a stone lying quietly, and above the stone was a red-haired woman hanging, which looked weird for no reason.

Black curse seals extended from Kushina's limbs, turning into terrifyingly hard spell chains that tightly wrapped around the huge stones standing on both sides.

Kushina had not yet recovered from the weakness after giving birth, and cold sweat kept oozing from her forehead.

She uttered with difficulty: "What are you going to do..."

Without the existence that could threaten him, the masked man's voice became noticeably calmer, and he uttered sinister words to her: "Pull the Nine-Tails out of your body and destroy Konoha."

Kushina lowered her head and her pupils were startled. She looked at him in disbelief, "What did you say?"

"Instantly move from one space with a technique mark to another space. This is Minato Namikaze's body-flickering technique. That mark is also drawn in your seal."

The three blood-colored magatama symbolizing Uchiha began to rotate in his eyes. The masked man didn't say much nonsense and mapped the eye technique into the consciousness space where the Nine-Tails was according to the method he had learned.

In a warm world of consciousness, the enchanting and terrifying Nine-Tailed Fox was nailed to the huge stone occupying the center.

Taking advantage of the Jinchuriki's weakness, it struggled and moved around in an attempt to escape the seal, but its mind was suddenly controlled by the Sharingan, and it immediately let out a violent howl.

Under the operation of the Sharingan, the chains and nails that bound the Nine-Tails gradually melted.

But when the seal was half melted, it slowed down again. No matter how much the masked man increased his chakra, the chain could not be completely broken.

"Damn it! What's going on!" The masked man couldn't help but feel impatient.

Haruko rushed here after running all the way, and saw Kushina who was held in the middle of a rock with a dazed look in her eyes and unable to even scream in pain.

The anger that she had suppressed in her heart burst out completely, "Let Kushina go!"

As she rushed towards the masked man, Haruko kept making seals with her hands, and one killing move after another pounced on him like a tsunami.

His movements were interrupted by her sudden attack, and the masked man could not help but break out in a cold sweat after he managed to dodge her defense.

It’s over, the Nine-Tailed Fox has only been half-unsealed!

What he was worried about was not that the Nine-Tails would not be able to come out. On the contrary, half of the chakra was enough for the Nine-Tails to transform. What he was really worried about was that the contract would be interrupted and the Nine-Tails would no longer be under his control!

Dense thoughts entangled his brain, and the masked man was distracted, and his foot was cut off by the extremely sharp water flow.

"Ahhhh——!"

He fell to the ground in pain, and tried to hold the remaining thigh of his left foot with his hands, but froze in fear.

Almost at the same time, the Nine-Tailed Fox's tyrannical aura swept around, and Haruko was forced to retreat. The huge impact force forced her to lower her body to resist.

Waves of first-rate and domineering chakra swirled in the air, condensing into a substantial body.

Under the cold moon, nine orange tails covered the sky like wildly growing vines. The Nine-Tailed Fox roared, and its sharp pupils reflected Kushina who collapsed after being stripped of the tailed beast.

Konoha was still in peace and tranquility, unaware of the approaching danger.

On the streets flowing in the night, scattered figures of people are interweaving, and noisy and cheerful sounds are heard from the izakaya. It is such a warm scene that even wild cats dare to fly through it.

"Why don't we just use rock-paper-scissors to decide the winner today?"

Hatake Kakashi put his hands in his pockets and perfunctorily responded to the people who followed him all the way.

"Again? Aren't there going to be any more exciting competitions?" Might Guy accused him angrily, "Does this count as my opponent?"

Not understanding why his passion had remained so strong for so many years, Hatake Kakashi looked dead in the eye and tried to find excuses to shirk his responsibility.

"I have to get up early tomorrow, so it's okay if we don't compete today, right?"

It was because this tights kept bothering him, causing his already limited rest time to be even less, that Hatake Kakashi became absent-minded.

I wonder if I can find her today...

"Don't use the mission as an excuse! Right now I'm full of passion and have no where to vent it!"

Might Guy's passion was still being output closely, but for some reason he had a bad feeling and Kakashi Hatake stopped and glanced around sharply.

"Let's not talk about this for now, Kai, have you noticed that the air seems to have become a little colder?"

Might Guy, who felt that he was being perfunctorily treated, shouted angrily: "It's your attitude that has become cold! Youth is only now!"

"..."

Kakashi Hatake's dead eyes became even worse.
