Chapter 63 – New Feature from the System
"Minato, with your current strength, there's no way you can catch up to my light-speed movement," Yusuke said calmly, his gaze cold yet confident.
"Damn… he really is fast," Minato muttered, still stunned at being outpaced.
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"
Minato launched a combo of wind and fire-style ninjutsu.
"Fire? Hahaha… Let me show you what real fire looks like!" Yusuke scoffed with a mocking laugh.
"Fire Fist."
The moment his flaming punch struck, Minato's elemental combo was completely erased—reduced to nothing by the overwhelming force.
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
"Water Release: Water Formation Wall!"
Minato created a shadow clone to launch the defense just in time, narrowly blocking Yusuke's blazing strike.
"You sure you want to keep going? As you are now, you're no match for me—and I don't want to hurt you, Minato," Yusuke said with an icy, resolute tone.
"…I didn't expect you to become this strong," Minato let out a long sigh, awe flickering in his eyes.
"Still want to get in my way?" Yusuke asked again, voice sharp and absolute.
"This needs to be reported to the Hokage," Minato replied, his tone serious. "Besides… if you kill that Uchiha boy outright, how will you justify it to the clan?"
"I don't need to justify anything to them," Yusuke answered coldly.
"If the Uchiha want trouble, I'll erase them from the map," he added flatly.
Minato's expression tightened. Losing Yusuke over a single Uchiha brat would be disastrous. Even Sarutobi Hiruzen himself might not be a match for Yusuke now.
"Alright then. I'll give you one chance, Minato. I'll personally report this to the Hokage. I hope he doesn't disappoint me."
'Damn it…' Minato cursed internally, resisting the urge to facepalm. If the Hokage refused to act, Yusuke would definitely execute the Uchiha boy—and everything would spiral out of control.
"Kakashi, cut off his arms and legs. Then come with me to the Hokage's office."
"Yes, brother." Kakashi responded without a shred of hesitation.
"No—please, don't!" the terrified Uchiha kid cried, staggering backward.
"Stop!!" Uchiha Gaku shouted—but he couldn't even move under the pressure of Yusuke's killing intent.
"Let's go, Kakashi."
With a single motion, Yusuke tore open a rift in space. In the blink of an eye, he transported everyone directly to the Hokage's office.
"This… Space-Time Ninjutsu…" Minato murmured, recognizing the technique immediately. As Konoha's sole Flying Thunder God user, he understood its mechanics better than anyone.
"W-What just happened?" Sarutobi Hiruzen stood from his desk, startled by their sudden arrival.
"No need to panic. Just one of my abilities. We're here to report something," Yusuke said casually. Minato stepped forward and explained the situation in detail.
"I see… But this matter still needs to be coordinated with the Uchiha clan…" Hiruzen rubbed his temples, clearly developing a headache.
"No need for that. In the end, they'll die. If they resist, I'll wipe them all out," Yusuke said without a hint of hesitation.
"Isn't that going too far?" Obito tried to interject.
"Relax, Obito. I won't hurt you—we're friends. But anyone who gets in my way will be executed. I don't care how arrogant the Uchiha get. If they challenge me, they'll pay the price."
Obito fell silent, unable to refute anything.
"Yusuke… Are you truly serious about this?" Hiruzen asked, his expression turning grim.
"I am. And let's not pretend the higher-ups haven't wanted to get rid of the Uchiha for a while. If they can't provide a satisfactory answer, I'll handle it myself."
His calm voice made the room feel even heavier. Everyone fell silent, including Minato, who was still shocked by how direct Yusuke was being.
"For now, I'll spare their lives. Tell the Uchiha clan leader—I want an answer within three days. If not, I'll come knocking."
With that, Yusuke opened another rift in space and vanished with Kakashi. The others could only watch as the golden light faded from the room.
Rin and Obito left soon after, still stunned by what they'd witnessed.
"He's… stronger than Minato-sensei…"
"Minato," Hiruzen finally spoke, "what do you really think?"
"…I hope the village sides with Yusuke," Minato replied after a long pause. Logically and emotionally, his allegiance leaned toward Yusuke. In his eyes, Yusuke was worth more than the entire Uchiha clan.
"Oh? And why's that?" Hiruzen's expression turned thoughtful. The shinobi world was on edge. Losing the Uchiha clan could be dangerous… but losing Yusuke could be catastrophic.
"It's the best choice. Konoha needs Yusuke's strength. And yes, it needs the Uchiha too. But if they clash, and we don't stop it, the Uchiha will be annihilated—and Konoha will lose Yusuke."
"You really think… Yusuke could destroy the entire Uchiha clan by himself?" Hiruzen asked solemnly.
"I fought him—and I lost. His speed surpasses even Flying Thunder God. And he has a separate space-time ability. Even Hashirama-sama might not be able to catch him," Minato replied firmly. They hadn't even gone all out—but he knew Yusuke was in another league.
"What?! Even you couldn't beat him?" Hiruzen was visibly disturbed. Beating Minato, especially with Flying Thunder God, was no small feat.
"It's true. And his speed isn't from a space-time technique—it's likely a Kekkei Genkai. Plus, his Fire Release and swordsmanship are terrifying. I suspect those are also part of a unique power. He doesn't need hand seals. And the temperature of his flames… it's extreme. Even the color looks unnatural."
"…I see," Hiruzen muttered. Mysterious fire techniques, speed beyond time-space ninjutsu, master-level Kenjutsu, and possibly a bloodline limit—all in one person? Yusuke was no ordinary shinobi.
"Alright, Minato. You may go. I know what needs to be done." Hiruzen had made up his mind. Yusuke was too dangerous to be treated as an enemy. Even if it meant severing ties with the Uchiha clan.
"Yes, Hokage-sama," Minato nodded and left.

"Brother, are you really going to go through with this?" Kakashi asked as he walked beside Yusuke.
"That depends on the Uchiha—or rather, on Hiruzen. But one thing's certain… those Uchiha punks crossed the line."
"You really think you can take on the entire Uchiha clan?"
"Of course I can. I'm not like Father. My power is unique. Unless they all attack me at once without rest, none of them can beat me."
He wasn't wrong. With his current power at peak Kage level, even legends like Hashirama or Madara couldn't track his movements. Combined with his hybrid abilities, Yusuke had become nearly invincible.
"Oh right, Kakashi—you're about to take the Jonin exam, aren't you?"
"Yeah. I'll be taking it soon."
"Impressive. My little brother's grown up strong. If you pass… I'll gift you a sword. One as powerful as Enma."
"Seriously?" Kakashi's eyes lit up.
"Of course."
"What's the sword called?"
"That's a secret." Yusuke grinned.
In truth, he planned to give Kakashi a sword that was the opposite of Enma: the Totsuka Blade. Though he didn't own it yet, after integrating with the fifth Devil Fruit, his system unlocked a new feature—the System Shop. And in that shop, the Totsuka Blade was available.
Coincidentally, he already had enough points to buy it.
