"Tsk, tsk, it really has to be me. This dry wood meeting a raging fire, wouldn't it burn the whole house down?"
Shindai's eyes were practically popping out. Seeing Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina planning to change locations, Shindai even tried to conjure a Third Eye to follow them.
But suddenly, three fists simultaneously struck Shindai's head.
"Watching them kiss is enough!"
"You still want to follow them into the room with your Third Eye?!"
"Do you want to live or not?! If you don't, we can help you out directly!"
Under the strong condemnation of Obito, Kakashi, and Rin Nohara, Shindai's exploration was forcibly interrupted.
To prevent Shindai from doing anything shameless after they left, the three of them—Obito, Kakashi, and Rin—stayed directly at Shindai's house that night, their three pairs of eyes fixed on Shindai, not giving him any chance.
Shindai grumbled quietly. He worked so hard, what was wrong with watching? It wouldn't cost him a piece of flesh.
The next day.
Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina opened the door and walked out, chatting and laughing.
Uzumaki Kushina affectionately held Minato Namikaze's arm, continuously talking to him.
And Minato Namikaze smiled, patiently listening to Uzumaki Kushina speak.
"Minato-sensei, Kushina-sama, good morning~"
Obito, Kakashi, and Rin Nohara stood at the door, energetically greeting Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina.
"Good morning to you too~ Oh, where's Shindai?"
"I'm right here. You two look refreshed and full of energy~"
Shindai, sporting a pair of dark circles under his eyes, leaned against his door, yawning listlessly.
Uzumaki Kushina asked, confused, "What's wrong with you?"
Shindai glared fiercely at the three of them: "Ask those three. They did nothing all night but stare at me, which kept me from sleeping. Sister Kushina, you and Lord Minato must be going on a date, right? I beg you, please take these three away!"
Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina looked at the three of them in confusion, not understanding why they had stared at Shindai all night.
"Minato-sensei, Kushina-sama, please go on your date quickly. Don't mind him. Shindai always likes to talk nonsense; you'll get used to it."
Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina felt a bit strange. Were they being rushed to go on a date?
After Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina left, Shindai said to the three of them, "Don't come looking for me these next few days. I need to work on something. Don't even think about opening the door with a key, especially you, Obito! I've already blocked the keyhole with Sand Iron!"
After speaking, Shindai directly closed the door.
Obito said unhappily, "Tch, as if I really want to find him."
Kakashi and Rin Nohara glanced at Obito.
Wasn't that true?
Obito's favorite thing was to mess around with Shindai when they had nothing to do.
Rin Nohara asked, "Obito, Kakashi, what are you two going to do later?"
Obito grinned mischievously: "Of course, I'm going to watch Minato-sensei's date! Kakashi, Rin, what about you?"
Rin Nohara replied, "I'm doing the usual, helping out at the Ninja Hospital."
Kakashi also replied, "I'm going to train. I told you before, Minato-sensei's Rasengan gave me a lot of inspiration. The Rasengan isn't suitable for me, so I want to create a Ninjutsu that is. I feel like it'll be completed soon."
Obito was a bit… no, very awkward.
Shindai was definitely tinkering with something, Rin Nohara was going to help at the Ninja Hospital, and Kakashi was creating a Ninjutsu, while he was going to sneak and watch a date.
This made him seem very unprofessional!
Obito cleared his throat and said, "I think, well, there's nothing much to see about dates anyway. While I have this free time, I'll go learn some Uchiha Fire Release Ninjutsu."
While everyone was doing their own things.
Mount Cemetery.
Uchiha Madara, who had been closing his eyes, opened them, and his old, weak voice rang out: "How is it? Did you bring Obito?"
Black Zetsu emerged from the ground and slightly bowed his head: "Uh, not yet. There was no opportunity to act."
Uchiha Madara sighed in disappointment: "How useless. As the embodiment of my will, you haven't inherited any of my strength at all. Then, what about that seal?"
Black Zetsu's head lowered even further: "Uh… I haven't found it either."
Uchiha Madara looked at Black Zetsu with a scrutinizing gaze: "Are you truly the embodiment of my will?"
Black Zetsu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be… Uchiha Madara had noticed?
Then Uchiha Madara said with dissatisfaction, "As the embodiment of my will, to be so utterly useless… If I couldn't create another embodiment of my will, I would have destroyed you. You are truly bringing shame to Uchiha Madara!"
Black Zetsu breathed a sigh of relief. So, he hadn't noticed after all.
But immediately, Black Zetsu became furious. He was just a chess piece, what was he putting on airs for?!
And he would destroy him? Let him try to destroy him!
Uchiha Madara reminded Black Zetsu: "I don't have much time left. Hurry and bring Obito to me. If you can't bring him back, then we must consider a backup plan!"
"Obito is in Konoha now. If he goes on a mission next, I will directly use mental fusion to control the consciousness of Obito's enemies and act on him myself. I will definitely bring him over."
Black Zetsu was now holding his breath, thinking that he absolutely had to bring Obito before Uchiha Madara to show Uchiha Madara his capabilities!
Uchiha Madara raised his eyes and glanced at Black Zetsu: "You don't need to tell me your plan. I only want results. Without results, no matter how beautiful your plan is, it's useless."
Black Zetsu almost exploded with anger. Was he looking down on him that much?
He really wanted to pull Uchiha Madara's tubes out!
Uchiha Madara closed his eyes: "Go quickly. Don't disappoint me again. I hope that when I wake up again, I can see a good result."
Black Zetsu cursed Uchiha Madara to his heart's content, but his mouth obediently said, "Understood," and then he sank back into the ground.
Seven days passed.
Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina also enjoyed seven days of happiness.
And while Minato Namikaze was thinking about the content of tomorrow's date, Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly dispatched an ANBU Ninja, telling Minato Namikaze to hurry to the Hokage Building.
Minato Namikaze's expression was serious. For an ANBU Ninja to be sent to find him so urgently, it was very likely that there was an emergency mission.
After bidding farewell to Uzumaki Kushina, Minato Namikaze immediately headed to the Hokage Building.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's first words upon seeing Minato Namikaze were, "Minato, something big has happened. Thousands of Iwagakure Ninja have entered the Land of Grass and are advancing towards the Land of Fire. We need you to fight!"
