Chapter 536: The Night of the Nine-Tails (Part 9)
Time goes back a little.
Kaito had just set out from the Land of Hot Water to Konohagakure.
Namikaze Minato rushed back to Konohagakure first with the "Reverse Summoning Jutsu" he had prepared in advance.
As soon as he arrived in Konohagakure, what caught Namikaze Minato's eyes was the devastated village.
There were burning flames and ruins everywhere.
The panicked people fled in panic.
One by one, the ninjas of Konohagakure rushed towards the Nine-Tails that was raging in the distance without hesitation.
And two equally huge toads were struggling to contain the Nine-Tails together with the other ninjas.
At this time, Namikaze Minato's eyes were bloodshot, and boundless anger was violently surging in his chest.
However, the little toad at Namikaze Minato's feet that helped him reverse summoning was relatively stable, and spoke to him quickly.
"Minato-sama, Bunta-sama and Ken-sama are holding back the Nine-Tails with Hiruzen-sama."
"Jiraiya-sama is..."
The little toad had just said this.
A figure rushed towards the place where Namikaze Minato was standing like a cannonball.
With a "boom~" sound.
The already extremely dilapidated stone wall in front of Namikaze Minato collapsed.
Smoke and dust rose, and stones flew.
Among the rubble and bricks, a sturdy and sturdy white-haired figure stood up with difficulty.
"Jiraiya-sensei!!"
Namikaze Minato exclaimed, causing Jiraiya, who was about to rush forward again, to stop slightly.
Looking at Namikaze Minato who came back in time, Jiraiya's eyes first flashed a hint of surprise, and then immediately turned into deep self-blame.
"Ahem~ Minato, Kushina..."
Before the two could talk more, along the path that Jiraiya was blasted out, a figure slowly walked out from the shadows.
"Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, you actually managed to come back from the Land of Hot Water!"
Hearing this somewhat low and gloomy voice, Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya turned their heads at the same time.
"Minato, this is the man in front of you who captured Kushina and released the Nine-Tails!"
Namikaze Minato's eyes immediately burst into tears when he heard this.
Releasing the Nine-Tails means the death of Kushina.
Moreover, after Namikaze Minato just returned to Konohagakure, he tried to use the "Flying Thunder God Jutsu" to teleport to Kushina's side, but it didn't work.
This means that Kushina's body is likely to have fallen into the hands of the person in front of him.
Although Namikaze Minato wanted to kill this person immediately.
However, at this time, Jiraiya's words continued in his ear.
"This person has spatial abilities. His body can be hollowed out and immune to attacks. He can also absorb and release objects, but he cannot remain hollowed out when absorbing and releasing."
"In addition, he also has a repulsive and gravitational field ability that can bounce or pull objects, with an interval of about 4 to 8 seconds."
Jiraiya was still whispering to Namikaze Minato about the information he had summarized during his previous battle with Uchiha Obito.
However, although his voice was low, Uchiha Obito saw his actions and naturally would not let the two of them talk quietly.
So he no longer lamented about meeting Namikaze Minato and decisively launched an attack.
He quickly formed seals with both hands.
At the same time, with his right eye as the center, the distorted spatial fluctuations began to rotate rapidly.
The surging wind spiraled out from Uchiha Obito's right eye.
"Fire Style: Blast Wave Wild Dance!"
A terrifying storm of flames blasted out instantly.
Under the impact of the spiral airflow, the flames spread rapidly like a huge rotating fire disk, instantly engulfing everything in front of him.
Feeling the surging heat wave coming towards him, Namikaze Minato's eyes condensed slightly, and he immediately threw several Flying Thunder God Kunai to the side.
At the same time, his right hand quickly grabbed Jiraiya's arm.
"Shua~"
Flying Thunder God was active.
Just before the flames approached, the two disappeared instantly.
The little toad that was lying beside the two saw that the situation was not good, and took the initiative to cancel the summoning Jutsu early, turning into a cloud of smoke and dissipating.
Jiraiya, who had long been familiar with the ability of his disciple, did not panic at all after being taken away by Namikaze Minato, and said to Namikaze Minato beside him.
"Minato, you hold him back for a while, I need to prepare that move!"
"Okay! Leave it to me!"
Namikaze Minato glanced at his sensei, without any nonsense, he rushed towards Uchiha Obito with a firm look in his eyes.
The "move" that Jiraiya was talking about was naturally the Sage Mode.
Originally, Jiraiya had missed his chance outside the village, and after discovering that the Nine-Tails had appeared and wreaked havoc in the village, he returned to the village again, preparing to accumulate natural energy to enter the Sage Mode.
However, he was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Uchiha Obito.
After a series of clashes, he had no chance to accumulate natural energy again.
On the way, several Konohagakure ninjas who were originally going to support the Nine-Tails discovered his battle here and wanted to help fight the enemy.
However, even ordinary jonins had no ability to intervene in a battle of this level.
All of those Konohagakure ninjas were killed by Uchiha Obito.
Even Jiraiya himself, if he had not relied on his rich combat experience to keep dealing with it, would have almost died in his hands.
However, it was precisely because of the difficult fight with the enemy in front of him that Jiraiya clearly realized that the person on the opposite side could never be the legendary Uchiha Madara.
Even though the opponent is indeed strong, the real Uchiha Madara is an excellent ninja who fought his way through the Sengoku Era. It is impossible that he is not as experienced as his junior.
Now that Namikaze Minato has returned, Jiraiya believes that with the information he just gave, even if his disciple cannot defeat the person in front of him, it will definitely not be a problem to hold the opponent back.
And as long as Namikaze Minato holds on until he enters Sage Mode.
With the two of them working together, Jiraiya is confident that he will be able to keep this fake Uchiha Madara in Konohagakure today.
'The villagers should have been evacuated almost by now, as long as the old man can hold on! '
Jiraiya put his hands together and began to accumulate natural energy, looking at the direction where the Nine-Tails was raging with some worry.
He knew very well that it was absolutely impossible to contain the Nine-Tails with only Gamabunta and Gamaken who were summoned earlier.
And ordinary ninjas facing the Nine-Tails can only use their lives to delay it.
The only one who can be relied on on the battlefield over there is his sensei with a broken arm, who may collapse at any time.
"But if we don't get rid of this guy in front of us, and let him join forces with the Nine-Tails, the threat will increase several times! "
Jiraiya was accumulating natural energy and analyzing the situation.
The enemy who was just entangled with Namikaze Minato suddenly retreated again and turned into a spiral and disappeared.
Jiraiya's heart was immediately alarmed.
Sure enough, the next moment.
The man's low and gloomy voice came from behind him.
"Are you preparing some dangerous moves?"
