"No, I am not as excellent as Teacher Minato."
Looking at the somber tone of Hatake Kakashi, Minato Namikaze remembered the terrifying chakra before their arrival, as well as the absence of Might Guy upon their arrival. It seemed he understood something and changed the subject, saying, "Then... tell me about the current battlefield situation, and where is my son, Naruto Uzumaki, right now?"
Although he didn't know where the Nine-Tails sealed by the First Hokage using Wood Release came from, he could sense that half of the Nine-Tails inside Naruto still existed.
...
"Grandpa! How come you too?"
Tsunade looked at Tobirama Senju in front of her, her words mixed with shock and surprise. But recalling that he might be manipulated by enemies, she unconsciously clenched her fists.
"I'm not an enemy, little Tsunade."
Seeing his granddaughter about to attack her own grandfather, Tobirama hurriedly raised both hands, with a distressed look, saying, "I've been resurrected using a technique called Edo Tensei by a talented successor named Orochimaru."
"...That guy..."
Learning that Orochimaru was once again manipulating the souls of their ancestors, Tsunade's feet trembled fiercely. But she also felt inexplicably reassured, because... they now had someone capable of dealing with those villains.
Might Guy's sacrifice had bought the entire ninja coalition their last hope.
"Let me go! You damn fool! Don't let that kid, Yuuki, come over, or you'll be the ones to die!!"
The voice of the Nine-Tails echoed around, with two wooden dragons visibly entangling him tightly. When facing Tobirama Senju, he was instantly killed without resistance...
"Shut up! Nine-Tails."
As soon as Tobirama finished speaking, the wooden dragons wrapped around Kurama were immediately pressed into the ground, preventing him from lifting his head.
The earth cracked apart, demonstrating the power of the First Hokage, suppressing the tailed beast as if playing with it.
Beside him, Tsunade inexplicably straightened her chest. With such a grandfather, it's impossible not to feel proud. If her grandfather were still alive, any trash like Six Paths Pain or others before entering the village would have to consider whether they were qualified enough.
However, inside, those two guys seemed to be fighting amongst themselves...
Looking at the Four Red Sun Formation, which only a team of four Kage-level experts could deploy together, it was evident that it wasn't just the roar of the Ten-Tails inside, but also the occasional dust release flashes indicating internal conflict among those individuals.
Once they fought enough, it would be the easiest way to go in, especially since the Hokage of each generation was present here.
The First Hokage, renowned as the God of Shinobi; the Second Hokage, hailed as the Master of Forbidden Scrolls; the Third Hokage, a master of ninjutsu; and the Fourth Hokage, the Yellow Flash.
Just the Ten-Tails, Uchiha Madara, Masked Man, and Yuuki.
Madara, alive, was no match for her grandfather, let alone now. As for the others, one shadow clone against one, if that wasn't enough, then two against one — even with a crowd of people, they'd be overwhelmed. This was a matter concerning the future of the ninja world, and they absolutely couldn't let these lunatics take control.
...
"Sas... Sasuke?!"
Behind, two kilometers from the front battlefield, Sakura Haruno, who was injecting chakra into Naruto Uzumaki, saw Uchiha Sasuke arrive at the battlefield.
"What's wrong with Naruto?"
Sasuke, arriving at the battlefield, looked down at Naruto Uzumaki lying unconscious on the ground. His black pupils immediately turned into three-tomoe sharingan, and he detected no chakra flowing inside him.
"He was drained of chakra by someone called Yuuki. He's still unconscious right now."
As Sakura finished speaking, she saw Sasuke squat down, grab Naruto's collar with his left hand, and slap him twice.
"Hey! He's a wounded person!!"
Seeing Sasuke act immediately, Sakura tried to push him away, but then she saw Naruto, whose face was swollen from the slap, miraculously wake up!!
Chakra had been drained from his body, and he was extremely weak. Others might have been unconscious for a week or even a month, but he... was awakened from being drained.
"This guy's inside him is the Nine-Tails. Even if all his chakra is temporarily drained, the Nine-Tails will fill it quickly."
Seeing Naruto wake up, Sasuke released his left hand, letting Naruto fall to the ground, and said, "I've decided to protect Konoha and become the Sixth Hokage."
"...Huh?!"
After hesitating for a moment, Sakura quickly went over to check his forehead, suspecting he had a fever, and said, "Lie down first, Sasuke. I'll check your body, and your brain too, once we get back to Konoha."
"The Sixth Hokage belongs to me, you know!"
Naruto, seeing Sasuke rushing to claim the Sixth Hokage title, shouted loudly.
"Then go be the Seventh. The Sixth is mine."
"Why don't you go?!"
"Because I'm stronger than you."
"Huh?!"
"...Hahaha!"
Watching these two, who hadn't seen each other in a long time but immediately started arguing upon meeting, Sakura burst into laughter.
"Crack, crack..."
The Ten-Tails twisted its massive body, with ten enormous tails flapping behind it. Its huge form was crouched on the ground, its back rising like a growing sapling, and its eyes opened to reveal a crimson Sharingan.
Awakening, it looked at the current sealing situation, its roar echoing across the scene. Its mouth gathered black Tailed Beast Chakra, which, even as it gathered, exceeded the size of the Nine-Tails!!!
At this moment, the Ten-Tails was uncontrolled by anyone, its task being to extract enough chakra, then transform into a divine tree spreading roots across this planet. But... it would also cause all life on this world to die... until this planet was completely destroyed.
"Unexpectedly fast."
Seeing the Ten-Tails revive and still pursuing Obito Uchiha, Yuuki immediately turned to head over. He planned to seal the Ten-Tails into himself and become the new Jinchūriki.
"Troublesome guy."
Obito, emerging from his transformation state, looked at Yuuki leaving and asked Black Zetsu, who had popped his head out, "Did you take Banshō's recovering body?"
"Yes, I took it. It's still being repaired, about five minutes until full recovery."
Black Zetsu replied, "This guy is really dangerous. Now, what do you say? Should we wait for Madara to revive, or...?"
"...Wait for Madara to revive. After all, he's not fighting us now, but the ninja coalition."
Obito looked at the divine gate descending from the sky, a smile forming on his face.
"Sage Technique: Divine Gate!!"
Seizing the moment, as the Outer Path Golem had already fully transformed into the Ten-Tails, Tobirama Senju performed hand seals. His face displayed the Sage Mode, and ten red torii gates appeared in the sky, capable of sealing the Tailed Beast's power. In an instant, they pinned the furious Ten-Tails in place.
The ten tails were trapped by the falling torii gates and unable to move, but the Tailed Beast Chakra still existed in its mouth, ready to break through this barrier that blocked its path.
"Seal the head!!"
Following Tobirama's shout, another torii gate descended, instantly suppressing the lifted head of the Ten-Tails. Its mouth's Tailed Beast Chakra exploded as well!!!
"Buzz..."
A dazzling white light shone. The Ten-Tails, just closing its eyes after being blasted close to its face, waited for the terrifying energy to swell and burst this prison. Yuuki, arriving, directly sliced through space with his right hand into the Realm, dodging this attack capable of flattening an island!!!
"Bang!!!!"
A white flash erupted, and the Four Red Sun Formation was deformed by this terrifying energy, swelling like an inflated balloon. Those outside hurriedly retreated, fearing that the barrier might not withstand the explosion, and the aftershock would kill them all.
"Don't worry, this isn't an ordinary barrier."
Minato Namikaze looked at the expanding barrier, calm and steady. The residual explosion erupted from the exit over ten thousand meters above, like a volcanic eruption—spectacular scene.
As the aftershock dissipated, the heavily injured Ten-Tails appeared before the ninja coalition.
"So... formidable, it actually withstood it."
Seeing the Four Red Sun Formation, which seemed unaffected, the ninja coalition was all shocked, including Naruto Uzumaki and others who had just returned to the battlefield.
"Sas... Sasuke?!"
Neji Hyūga, watching the Uchiha rogue ninja, immediately prepared to attack. Using Byakugan, his eye veins bulged as he questioned, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm not an enemy. I'll fight later when I have time."
Seeing Sasuke move to attack Neji, he looked at the injured Ten-Tails inside the barrier with his Sharingan's three-tomoe spinning. Although he was hurt by his own Tailed Beast Chakra, the amount of chakra he was releasing still seemed endless...
"Everyone, stop arguing first. Sas... hmm, let's call him Sasuke. He's a good kid who wants to become Hokage."
Minato turned to the arguing crowd, fixing his gaze on his son Naruto Uzumaki, smiling warmly. "How have you been these years? Naruto."
"Yeah, I've been doing very well, Dad."
Naruto gave a thumbs-up with a big smile.
"Really? I wanted Kushina to see you too, and I have a lot to say to you. But... there's no time to chat now. Let's seal the Ten-Tails first."
Seeing Naruto doing well, Minato turned his attention to the Ten-Tails, at this moment... fulfilling his role as a father once again.
"Mm."
Looking at his father in front of him, Naruto Uzumaki, feeling his father's love for the first time, closed his eyes, entered the mental space, and looked at the Nine-Tails chakra being reassembled. He asked, "How long until it's ready?"
"Ten minutes."
Kurama sat cross-legged, hands together, beginning to gather the chakra that had been drained from his body.
"...I see."
Naruto Uzumaki helplessly exited the mental space. Next time he entered the Nine-Tails' chakra mode, it would take a full ten minutes. During this time... he couldn't do anything because there was no chakra to enter the battlefield—equivalent to risking death.
"Fourth Hokage, prepare to enter the battlefield!!"
Tobirama Senju's clone arrived, while his main body remained to maintain the Four Red Sun Formation barrier.
"Mm, First Hokage."
Minato split a shadow clone. In the next moment... golden chakra enveloped his entire body, six black tomoe floating on his collar, and entering the Nine-Tails chakra mode, Minato raised his thumb to the ninja coalition behind him and said, "Just charge ahead. Leave everything else to me."
"Yeah!!!"
Seeing the Fourth Hokage and the First Hokage leading the charge, the ninja coalition's morale soared.
"Let's go!!"
Tobirama arrived in front of the Four Red Sun Formation, raised both hands, and opened a rectangular gate capable of accommodating hundreds of people at once, then charged inside.
At this moment, each side of the quadrilateral seal barrier opened a gate of this size. Over ten thousand ninja coalition members flooded in, launching a fierce attack on the bound Ten-Tails!!
"Quite lively..."
Yuuki saw the ninja coalition pouring in from all directions and, with hand seals, said, "Don't blame me for not giving you a chance—Sage Technique... Mokuton True Art!!"
