The masked man, on the other hand, let out a low laugh after hearing Minato's words: "Heh heh—...heh heh heh—Minato Namikaze, do you think you've already won?"
Minato frowned, a sudden sense of foreboding rising in his heart.
He instinctively turned around to look.
Not far behind, Kushina stood unharmed, tightly protected by Naruto.
Ok?
Minato Namikaze quickly noticed the anomaly.
The Raikage and Tsuchikage were staring at him warily.
Moreover, the two had unknowingly changed positions, and there was even a faint feeling that they had joined forces with the Akatsuki to surround him.
Seeing this, Minato Namikaze immediately understood what was happening.
His pupils suddenly contracted, his smile vanished, and an expression of rare anger appeared on his face.
"Is this your true self?!"
Minato let out a rare low growl, his voice trembling slightly with anger.
The masked man laughed loudly, his voice filled with smugness: "Hahaha! Doesn't it feel bad to have all your efforts wasted? Minato Namikaze—"
His single eye glowed a sinister red behind his mask, and his voice suddenly turned cold and piercing: "Prepare for the coming war!!"
auditorium.
"war-·?"
Sakura trembled upon hearing the masked man's final, maniacal declaration, her face turning deathly pale. "What... what is this war he's talking about? Are there other enemies?!"
[Ding! Sakura Haruno's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +200!]
Naruto was equally confused, scratching his head in bewilderment: "Why is Father suddenly so angry? Didn't they already win?"
The boy stared intently at his father's furious expression on the screen, feeling a vague unease, yet unable to pinpoint the reason.
Jiraiya slowly withdrew his gaze, let out a long sigh, his face full of regret and heaviness: "What a pity for Minato's painstaking efforts."
His sudden remark startled Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura. The three of them looked at Jiraiya in unison, clearly not understanding why he had suddenly uttered such a remark.
Jiraiya paused for a moment, then pointed to the Konoha training grounds on the screen, now a scene of carnage, and explained in a low voice, "Think about it, this Chunin Exam in the dream was a grand event jointly organized by the five great nations."
Sasuke nodded in agreement: "Yes! It's the first time that rookie ninjas from five villages have had the chance to compete against each other. We used to find it incredible!"
That's exactly why.
Jiraiya gave a wry smile and shook his head, saying, "In reality, such a scene of the five Kage on the same stage is almost impossible to happen. After the three Shinobi World Wars, the blood feud between the five great nations is too deep."
"Minato's efforts and dedication to getting the five great nations to jointly host this Chunin Exams probably exceed your imagination."
Upon hearing this, Sasuke nodded as if he understood, a vague sense of foreboding rising in his heart.
He looked at Jiraiya and asked in a low voice, "Does Senior mean—will this incident ruin this hard-won cooperation?"
A hint of sadness flashed in Jiraiya's eyes as he slowly said, "That's right. The reason that guy used the word 'war' was precisely because he successfully sowed discord and destroyed the hard-won trust within this alliance."
"Look, the two villages of Kirigakure and Sunagakure joined forces to disrupt the situation during the exams, but not only did they fail to seriously damage Konoha, they were easily dealt with by Minato and his group. Coupled with the abilities that Minato and his wife just displayed, they suppressed the out-of-control tailed beast in no time. The strength Konoha has shown this time is simply too powerful."
"Isn't being strong a good thing?" Sakura asked, puzzled. "Wouldn't that make everyone feel more at ease? Why would it lead to war?"
Jiraiya sighed with a wry smile, "Sometimes, being too powerful is a sin—the taller Konoha grows, the more of a threat it becomes in the eyes of other villages. When one village becomes dominant, the others have no choice but to join forces to bring it down, unless—"
Unless Konoha produces another Hashirama Senju.
on the screen.
As the masked man and Payne assumed their fighting stances once more, the atmosphere in the training ground suddenly froze, becoming deathly silent.
Seeing this, Minato Namikaze knew that the situation was extremely critical.
Minato Namikaze took a deep breath, then suddenly raised his voice and gave the order: "Kakashi! Take Naruto and Kushina and get out of here immediately!"
Kakashi stiffened at the sound of the voice and immediately nodded in understanding: "Yes!"
He also keenly sensed the strange change in the atmosphere—without the slightest hesitation, Kakashi immediately rushed to Kushina and Naruto's side and called out, "Let's go!"
"No!" Kushina's expression changed, and she instinctively refused. "Minato is still here, how can we leave him alone—"
Minato's expression showed a slight struggle, but he quickly regained the resoluteness and composure of a Hokage.
He turned back to his wife and children, a reassuring smile on his face. "Don't worry about me. I'm the Hokage, not someone you can easily stop. If you stay here, I won't be able to act freely. Listen to me, retreat first, and wait for me in a safe place!"
Kushina's red hair flew wildly as she bit her lower lip tightly.
She longed to stay and fight alongside her husband, but seeing the resolute look in Minato's eyes, she finally nodded and said in a hoarse voice, "Alright. But you must come back safe and sound!"
Minato smiled and nodded: "I promise."
After saying this, he looked at Kakashi, solemnly entrusting his wife and children to his former student, and smiled bitterly: "Kakashi, they—"
I have to ask you for help again!
Kakashi felt a jolt in his heart, and his eyes welled up with tears.
He nodded solemnly: "Mr. Minato, please rest assured! I will definitely protect them!"
Having received the promise, Minato finally felt relieved and waved his hand sharply: "Go quickly!"
Kakashi didn't dare to delay. Together with several Anbu members, he immediately escorted Kushina and Naruto towards the exit of the training ground.
Just as several figures reached the entrance to the training ground, a short figure suddenly blocked their way.
"Lord Tsuchikage?!" Kakashi's pupils contracted, and he immediately stopped.
Blocking the exit was none other than Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of the Land of Earth.
His short, hunched body was now suspended in mid-air, his arms crossed over his chest, his face cold and stern.
"You can leave if you want!" Onoki narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on the unconscious red-haired boy on Kakashi's shoulder. "Leave the Sand Village's Jinchuriki behind."
Upon hearing this, Kakashi frowned, about to retort.
Unexpectedly, Minato Namikaze issued the order directly.
"Kakashi! Do as he says—hand Gaara over to them. Take Kushina and Naruto away immediately!"
Kakashi was startled.
He understood that the situation was critical and that Minato-sensei had his reasons for making concessions.
Without further hesitation, Kakashi took a deep breath and slowly handed Gaara over his shoulder: "Understood."
Onoki snorted coldly, flew a few steps closer, grabbed the unconscious Gaara, and examined him closely before making way for him: "Hmph, you know what's good for you."
Kakashi didn't dare say anything more, so he quickly helped Kushina up and ran past him with Naruto.
Minato Namikaze stood still and spoke in a deep voice to Onoki: "Tsuchikage, Konoha has never had the ambition to take the tailed beasts of other villages."
Kushina and I were able to control the Tailed Beasts only because of...
Onoki raised an eyebrow and coldly remarked, "Konoha didn't want to get their hands on the Tailed Beasts? Then can the Hokage explain why you and your wife dealt with the rampaging Tailed Beasts so easily?"
Before he could finish speaking, Kakashi and the others had already rushed out of the training ground.
Kakashi didn't hear what was said after that; he had already left with Kushina and Naruto.
Teacher Minato asked him to protect the two of them, so he naturally had to ensure their safety.
The most urgent task now is to get Kushina and Naruto to an emergency shelter.
Kakashi involuntarily turned around and looked back, his expression full of worry: "Will Minato-sensei really be alright? There are still two Kage-level powerhouses inside. The high walls blocked his view, and he could only see the hazy smoke and dust in the sky, but couldn't hear anything coming from inside."
"Minato is so strong, he'll be fine, right?" Kushina forced a smile, comforting herself as if talking to herself.
But her hand, which was holding Naruto's, was trembling slightly, revealing her inner nervousness.
Kakashi was silent for two seconds before speaking reassuringly, "Don't worry. If the two Kage really intended to attack, they would have already done so."
They are wary of Minato's strength and certainly wouldn't dare to act recklessly.
The words had barely left his mouth when a deafening roar erupted!
A deafening roar was followed by a violent explosion from afar.
The earth trembled slightly, and thick smoke and shockwaves shot into the sky. Even the surrounding streets could feel the powerful airflow rushing towards them!
Now that things have come to this, they have no time to care about the battle on the field, because as far as the eye can see, Konoha Village is also filled with the flames of war and the smoke of gunpowder!
The unrest caused by the remnants of Kirigakure and Sunagakure has not yet been completely quelled, in addition to the Akatsuki members who have just arrived to provide support.
Throughout the village, shouts of battle and explosions echoed continuously.
Two giants appeared on each of the east and west sides of the village, and they were fighting with people.
The one to the east was shrouded in a faint emerald light, and its outline resembled a giant samurai holding a long sword—he recognized it at a glance as Shisui's "Susanoo"!
To the west, there was another giant, similar in appearance, but black in color, and equally exuding a powerful aura that was terrifying.
Kakashi squinted to take a closer look, but found that he had never seen the appearance and moves of this black giant before. He couldn't help but wonder when another Susanoo had appeared in the village.
Before he could think it through, something strange happened in the south—a huge, semi-transparent purple barrier rose up out of nowhere!
Kushina exclaimed, "That's the direction of the shelter!"
Kakashi felt a sudden tightness in his chest, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.
Is that the direction of the emergency shelter where the villagers are located?
Does the enemy intend to spare even civilians?!
