Hokage: Ryo's Path

Chapter 538

Senju Tobirama and Otsutsuki Momoshiki didn’t notice that Namikaze Minato teleported to Juubi’s side, so both were suddenly blown away by the wind…

Tobirama fell from the air, and he saw that all over Juubi’s body was covered with injuries. He immediately teleported to Minato and asked: “Yondaime, what just happened? Juubi looks as if they are hurt.”

“Juubi was wounded by his own Bijuudama. Just now, it tried to attack us with Bijuudama, but I returned it to him by using Flying Thunder God.” Minato answered with a smile.

“Juubi doesn’t seem to have much IQ, and it only acts according to their instincts,” Sasuke frowned and said, “The thing is those people. Uchiha Madara, Otsutsuki Momoshiki, and that masked man… That masked man has been standing there without moving, and we don’t know what he is planning. Also, there is the Rinnegan ability of Otsutsuki Momoshiki, and it’s related to time, which is very troublesome. Nidaime-sama, have you found a way to probe Otsutsuki Momoshiki’s Rinnegan?”

Tobirama shook his head, “the strength of Otsutsuki Momoshiki is above me, and also, I am in a state of Edo Tensei. I have to be careful of his red aperture, and he also knows my condition… so when I fight him, he won’t use Rinnegan at all.”

Hearing this, Sasuke sighed: “alas! It’s a shame! We’ve fought for so long and yet, haven’t stopped Juubi’s evolution. Even the enemy abilities are not clear…”

Shisui patted Sasuke’s shoulder, “Sasuke, don’t say that… the enemies we face are not ordinary people. There is no need to belittle ourselves too much.”

When several people exchanged information they got, Juubi’s injuries had gradually recovered…

Just now, the Bijuudama attack failed, and Juubi blew himself up. Out of instinct, Juubi feels that he can’t use Bijuudama again.

Seeing Juubi’s injuries recovered, there’s this uncomfortable feeling in Minato’s heart. Kyuubi, who shared the connection with Naruto and Kushina, also felt this uncomfortable feeling.

‘Something’s going on…’

ROOOOOOAAARRR-

With a roar, Juubi’s body began to wriggle one after another, and then the skin on the surface of the body gradually slipped, and a small monster that looked like a wood split from Juubi’s body.

At first, there were only a few hundred, but in the blink of an eye, it became thousands… Some of them were particularly large, and the largest was almost comparable to Bijuu.

Shisui coldly snorted, quickly cast Susanoo directly at Bijuu, and the green tome moved towards the monster.

However, he didn’t expect that the green tome would be easily blocked.

Seeing this, Namikaze Minato’s expression has also become serious. ‘This body split could easily block the attack of Complete Body Susanoo… This largest split is not far different from the Bijuu itself.’

“Naruto, Sasuke, be careful! These guys are not easy. Nidaime-sama, I am sorry to trouble you to hold Otsutsuki Momoshiki. We will find a way to clean up these monsters.” Minato said.

“Well, I’ll leave them to you.” After saying that, Senju Tobirama disappeared.

“Naruto and Kushina, you two go directly to Juubi. Sasuke and Shisui, you two maintain the state of Susanoo. All of you go and try to solve these splits. I will go to that masked man.”

Hearing this, Shisui quickly said, “Minato-sama, that masked man has been in no action. We still do not know much about him, and it’s better to concentrate on dealing with Juubi and its split body!”

“It’s okay. I have plans!”

After saying that, Minato teleported to Juubi’s side and threw Flying Thunder God Kunai towards the masked man.

The kunai passed through the masked man, and Minato quickly moved behind him.

“Obito, it has been a while!” Namikaze Minato folded his Flying Thunder God Kunai and said with a smile.

‘?!’

Obito froze, then he turned around and took off the mask, “Did Ryo tell you?”

“Well, he told me everything about you. I’m sorry, Obito… As your teacher, I have too many things I didn’t do.”

“No, Sensei. It’s me who should say sorry… I attacked the village that night, and you and Kushina-sensei suffered a lot.”

Minato smiled, reached out, and touched Obito’s head, “at that time, your memory was sealed by Uchiha Madara, right? In my opinion, you have always been the one who is willing to help others and wants to be the one with the Will of Fire.”

Minato’s words touched Obito’s heart. From the day he recovered the memory, he has been blaming himself… And today, Minato forgives him.

“Thank you, Sensei!”

Namikaze Minato nodded.

After the heart knot was untangled, Obito looked a lot more relieved when facing Minato. He said, “Sensei, do you know something about his ultimate purpose?”

“Do you mean the Otsutsuki Clan?”

“Well, initially, the intention was to seal Uchiha Madara. But then, Otsutsuki Momoshiki joined along and wanted to resurrect Juubi to awaken Kaguya… Although both are clansmen of the Otsutsuki Clan, from the status, I could tell that Kaguya’s status should be much higher than Momoshiki.

After Madara escaped the previous battlefield, he reached cooperation with Momoshiki, and he immediately resurrected him… All of this has been out of control, and I don’t know what to do next. Do you know anything about Ryo’s plan, Sensei?”

Minato shook his head, “I don’t know what Ryo is thinking… When I set off, he ordered the ninjas to come to the battlefield here, and I think that after the coalition arrived, he should have come, and then he would definitely do something about it.”

“In that case, Sensei, you should go back first. I will stay here for the time being. Uchiha Madara trusts me, so maybe I can do something about it.”

“En! Then I’ll go first.”

After saying that, Minato teleported back to Naruto, and Obito put on his mask back and observed Madara and Momoshiki.

……

At the same time, after a long journey, Onoki came to the battlefield with the coalition forces.

“That open space over there is the final battlefield! I have seen Juubi! Let’s go, everyone! The final battle is about to begin!”

After having said that, Onoki took the lead and headed for the battlefield. The ninjas followed.
