"What do you want to do?"
The masked man did not speak. Instead, he directly activated his Sharingan. The Sharingan and the Nine-Tails inside Kushina resonated with each other, instantly controlling the Nine-Tails.
"Come out! Nine-Tails!"
The scarlet Nine-Tails chakra enveloped Kushina's entire body, and the enormous Nine-Tailed Fox was forcefully peeled out of Kushina's body! A Jinchūriki who loses their Tailed Beast is supposed to die. Kushina's eyes were vacant at this moment, black cursed script fluid constantly ran down her abdomen, and blood continually poured from her mouth.
The masked man then left, returning to the streets of Konoha Village.
Throughout the entire process, Torifu watched him. Everything was completed under Torifu's gaze.
'Indeed, I should have just gone back and killed Uchiha Obito.' Torifu muttered, stroking his chin. He could not understand the point of letting him remain in this world after committing such cruel acts against his own Master and Mistress. However, he was only joking, as the Minato in his own world was quite sensible, and there was no need to 'overturn the world' or 'right the reflection' or 'hide the tears' or anything like that.
Minato and the others also noticed the recent explosion. The commotion was significant; nearly all the hidden ANBU ninja in Konoha Village headed in that direction.
"Big Brother, did something happen?"
Torifu nodded: "I sensed that the Kushina of this world is the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki." He then briefly explained to Minato and the others how a Jinchūriki works. "And after giving birth, someone forcefully broke the seal to release the Nine-Tails. That is to say, Kushina's life is currently in grave danger."
Minato's entire demeanor changed upon hearing this, his eyes filled with sheer rage.
"Big Brother, where is he?"
"He's here."
As the masked man performed the Summoning Technique, the roaring Nine-Tails appeared in Konoha Village! Its orange-red fur looked especially terrifying under the light of the full moon! Sarutobi Hiruzen, sensing the situation outside, was completely shocked and immediately changed into his ninja gear, preparing to fight! With a single swing of the Nine-Tails' enormous body, several houses were destroyed! The people inside were sent flying. However, these people were not killed; Torifu levitated them all and transferred them to a safe location.
The others were all surprised to see this creature. The opportunity they had waited a whole day for was delivered by the Nine-Tails. But no one was smiling now, because they understood the Nine-Tails' origin.
It had been decades since Torifu had last seen the Nine-Tails. Back then, he relied on the strength of his ancestor to seal the Nine-Tails.
"Yahiko, go and have a spar with the Nine-Tails."
Yahiko immediately sped off, preparing to exchange blows with the Nine-Tails.
"Naori, go take care of Kushina, and take this puppet with you."
Torifu summoned the Uzumaki puppet, which was made with Mito's blood. If Kushina sucks its blood, she can also heal herself.
"Understood." Naori did not say much, not even 'be careful.' Because a 'toy' like the Nine-Tails was not a big problem for her, and even less so for Torifu.
"Big Brother, what about me?"
Torifu smiled faintly: "Don't rush. I'm taking you to meet the you of this world."
At this moment, Namikaze Minato had already sent Kushina back home, and he put on his Hokage cloak and arrived above the Hokage Rock. Just as he prepared to attack the Nine-Tails, the masked man struck again, ambushing Minato from behind using Kamui.
"Fourth Hokage, I am your opponent!" Saying this, he prepared to drag Minato into his Kamui dimension.
But then, a hand landed on the masked man's shoulder.
"You've been causing trouble all night. Haven't you had enough?" Torifu's voice was calm, devoid of any emotion.
This sent a shiver down the masked man's spine. When?! He hadn't sensed anything at all! The Namikaze Minato facing him saw Torifu, but he was certain he had never seen this person before. And who was that next to him? Himself?
The masked man broke free from Torifu's hand and swiftly counter-attacked Torifu. But Torifu made no move. As the masked man's attack was about to land, Torifu was once again behind the masked man. He reached out to pat the masked man's shoulder. This time, the masked man sensed it. He immediately used Kamui to turn himself intangible. But in an instant, an extreme cold burst from Torifu's body, freezing the surrounding space, causing traces of white frost to appear. The entire cliff face was also instantly covered in frost.
'Kamui, I can't activate it?' The masked man was extremely puzzled and terrified. Who was this person?! He had never seen him before, yet he was so powerful! How did he manage to nullify his Kamui?
The masked man was naturally unwilling to be defeated like this and attacked Torifu again. This time, Torifu stopped playing. With a single glance, Crystal Release pierced up from the ground, firmly pinning the masked man in place. Then Torifu stepped forward, grabbed half of the masked man's body, and violently ripped it off! He then struck the masked man's chest with a palm, sending him flying dozens of meters away.
Torifu could tell that Uchiha Obito had already escaped using Kamui during the flight. Moreover, what he had torn off was only the White Zetsu material; it wasn't a fatal blow to Uchiha Obito himself. Torifu was the person who valued the bond between Master and disciple the most. Hashirama raised him from a young age, so Torifu extended Hashirama's life, allowing him to personally witness the prosperity of Konoha Village. Therefore, he detested ingrates the most, and this punishment was considered light in Torifu's eyes. If the System hadn't forbidden killing, he wouldn't have left even half a body.
[T/N: This is the reason i am trying to keep the term Master and Sensei separate from each other, though i am currently failing at it, but i try.]
Namikaze Minato stared blankly at everything. The mysterious person who had put Konoha Village and his wife in peril had been defeated just like that. But now, an even stronger mysterious person had appeared, along with... himself?
"Go quickly and deal with the Nine-Tails. My disciple is currently fighting him."
Namikaze Minato looked toward the Nine-Tails and saw huge streams of water constantly being poured over the beast. Such powerful Water Release, surely only the Second Hokage could manage it?
