Chapter 520 - Chapter 299: A Troubling Future

At this moment, the vines and wooden strips created by Yamato's Wood Release wrapped around Mokgetsu's body, about to bind Mokgetsu.

"We've won." Yamato thought the battle was over.

Swoosh!

In the next instant, Yamato suddenly noticed Mokgetsu disappear before his eyes, and a tremendous force came from behind him.

"Captain Yamato, watch your back!" Naruto shouted.

But it was too late when Naruto shouted; before Naruto and Yamato could react, Mokgetsu had already made his move.

Bam!

A dull thud sounded, and Yamato's body made a harsh impact with the ground.

"Could Kakashi-senpai have deceived me again, is the name he told me also fake?" Yamato thought gloomily.

Anyone who knows a bit about the Fourth Hokage knows that the Fourth Hokage's most proficient ninjutsu is the Flying Thunder God Jutsu.

Looks so much like the Hokage Rock, and has such a strong Flying Thunder God, who else could it be but the Fourth Hokage?

Thinking this way, Yamato felt much better; losing to the future Fourth Hokage isn't a big deal, after all, that's the future Hokage.

"Damn it!" Seeing Yamato brought down, Naruto's blood surged instantly, and the immense chakra within him erupted, forming a sphere, and he rushed directly toward Mokgetsu.

Watching the charging Uzumaki Naruto, Mokgetsu didn't make any excessive movements; he simply pulled out a kunai with a Flying Thunder God Mark.

In the instant Uzumaki Naruto approached Mokgetsu, Mokgetsu threw the Flying Thunder God Kunai and immediately used the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to relocate.

Swoosh!

Uzumaki Naruto's vision suddenly blurred, and he was astonished to find no one in front of him; his Rasengan hit nothing but air.

"How did he do that, he can move so fast?" The speed Mokgetsu displayed was beyond Naruto's comprehension.

This wasn't about seeing clearly or not; he simply didn't see how Mokgetsu moved.

Bam!

The next moment, a terrifying force struck, and Naruto fell beside Yamato.

Kakashi looked at Mokgetsu with a face of surprise; he wasn't surprised that Mokgetsu could defeat Uzumaki Naruto and Yamato, as that was within his expectations. He was surprised by the Flying Thunder God that Mokgetsu displayed.

According to Mokgetsu, he learned it from Namikaze Minato some time ago, but from Kakashi's perspective, Mokgetsu's proficiency with the Flying Thunder God was nothing like a novice; it felt almost on par with Namikaze Minato.

Kakashi gained a new understanding of Mokgetsu's terrifying ninja talents.

In fact, in Kakashi's mind, Mokgetsu is the most talented ninja, having developed the Breathing Technique and Armament Aura, such incredible Secret Techniques, before the age of twenty.

Considering the completeness demonstrated by the Breathing Technique, Kakashi had reason to believe Mokgetsu developed it before the age of sixteen.

At this rate, Mokgetsu's achievements in ninjutsu could very well surpass those of the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama.

"As expected of Teacher Mokgetsu, such a strong Flying Thunder God Jutsu!" Seeing Mokgetsu easily defeat the ninja they couldn't, Obito showed an extremely excited expression.

After all, Mokgetsu had previously mentioned that he would teach the Flying Thunder God Jutsu to him in the future.

Obito was already fantasizing about executing similarly cool moves with the Flying Thunder God in the future.

"Pfft." The resilient Uzumaki Naruto spat out the dirt from his mouth and quickly got up to prepare to continue fighting.

"Naruto, don't attack anymore." Yamato also sat up quickly and then pulled Naruto.

"We've time-traveled back to the past, the other side is likely the Fourth Hokage, there's no need to fight because of this misunderstanding." Yamato whispered.

He felt that continuing the fight was really pointless; whoever got hurt would be a loss to Konoha.

"I thought he looked familiar, turns out it's the Fourth Hokage from the Rock likeness." Naruto showed a sudden realization.

"Bro, can you take off your glasses?" Naruto, seemingly having forgotten they were in a war, said in his naturally familiar manner.

Mokgetsu wasn't using the Byakugan, so he fulfilled Naruto's wish, taking off his glasses and putting them in the ninja pouch.

Naruto's eyes lit up instantly, he struck his palm with his fist, "Now it looks exactly the same, so big bro you're the Fourth Hokage."

Yamato covered his face with his hand; he was trying to avoid saying things about the future so quietly, but Naruto just blurted it out loudly, making his previous effort to control the volume seem useless.

Talking about future stuff affects history on one hand, and on the other, saying this kind of thing to only the Third Hokage sounds really provocative.

"Are they escapees from some psychiatric hospital?" Obito couldn't help but say.

Naruto's words had Obito starting to suspect if he had some mental illness.

Obito didn't doubt Mokgetsu's capability to become Hokage, after all, Mokgetsu was a universal Sage, but there wasn't a Fourth Hokage in Konoha yet.

"Could you be ninjas who traveled back from the future?" Kakashi connected Yamato and Uzumaki Naruto's actions and words with their fight and asked in surprise.

Initially, he thought Yamato and Uzumaki Naruto were messing with him, but now thinking carefully, Uzumaki Naruto and Yamato never showed killing intent; they held back in the fight, always showing a lack of strong fighting will, behaving not like enemies.

But if Yamato and Uzumaki Naruto are future ninjas, all their anomalies make sense, whether it's their ninja numbers or behavior.

The reason they assumed he was his own son was that they knew the future Kakashi, and in their era, the Third Hokage had already died, and the Hokage position passed to the Fifth Hokage.
