The reason for Uchiha Obito's sudden panic was actually very simple. If what White Zetsu had said was true, then there was only one possible explanation for the situation before him…
Uchiha Feng had already predicted his arrival.
After all, Obito's plan to come to Konoha had been kept absolutely confidential from start to finish. It was practically impossible for anyone to know about it.
Yet even so, Minato's surroundings were filled with Uchiha clan members.
Th-this… what exactly was going on!?
However, Obito quickly shook his head. He was confident that although Uchiha Feng was extremely powerful, there was no way he could have predicted that he would appear at this exact moment to destroy Konoha.
Besides, no matter how strong Uchiha Feng was, facing the combined forces of himself and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, he would still be no match.
Thinking of this, Obito felt much more at ease. One of his sinister Mangekyō Sharingan flashed with cold light.
In the next moment, Obito waved his hand toward Yagura and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen behind him, signaling them to begin their operation.
However, just as they were about to act, a cold voice suddenly echoed through the air.
"My teacher's wife… and you dare to touch her!?"
The voice wasn't loud, but the instant it rang out, it was like a thunderclap exploding in everyone's ears.
Almost everyone present was stunned.
Even Black Zetsu and White Zetsu—famous for their extraordinary perception—had failed to detect Ning Feng's presence.
Yet Ning Feng had appeared before them without the slightest warning.
That's right.
At this critical moment, Ning Feng had already used the Flying Thunder God Technique to silently arrive behind Uchiha Obito.
What Obito didn't realize was that a space–time mark had already been placed on his body.
"Hm!?"
Obito and the others immediately turned around, their eyes filled with shock as they looked at Ning Feng.
Especially Obito himself—his brows furrowed tightly.
Of all the people to appear… it just had to be him.
What terrible luck.
"Hmph. Uchiha Feng, what are you doing here?"
"The dignified Third Rain Shadow appearing in Konoha… I doubt you came with good intentions."
After a brief moment of shock, Obito quickly regained his composure and spoke coldly, attempting to shift the blame onto Ning Feng.
"Heh."
"I'd like to ask you something instead."
"My teacher's wife is about to give birth. So why are you, Uchiha Madara, and the Mist's so-called elite experts appearing here?"
Ning Feng wasn't fooled in the slightest. His tone turned icy as he questioned them directly.
"We're just here to protect her safety. Nothing more," Obito replied without even blinking, lying smoothly.
At the same time, his Mangekyō Sharingan sensed that many Konoha ninjas had already noticed the commotion and were rushing toward this location.
The pressure on him increased instantly.
Meanwhile, inside Minato's house, several Uchiha clan members escorted the heavily pregnant Kushina out. They quickly headed toward the forest outside Konoha.
Uchiha Fugaku and the others followed closely behind.
Seeing this, Ning Feng's eyes flickered.
He knew they were leaving the village to prevent the Nine-Tails from rampaging and causing massive destruction inside Konoha.
However, in the original storyline, Obito had taken advantage of this exact moment—killing Kushina's guards and seizing control of the Nine-Tails.
"Damn it!"
Seeing Kushina being moved away, Obito realized there was no time left.
His Mangekyō Sharingan flashed, and his entire body vanished instantly.
At the same time, Yagura and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen charged toward Ning Feng, attempting to hold him back.
Unfortunately for Obito, his plan was doomed to fail this time.
A spiral of light twisted through the air.
When Obito reappeared, he had already teleported nearly a thousand meters away from Fugaku and the others.
With a cold smile, he assumed Yagura and the others had successfully entangled Ning Feng, giving him the chance to release the Nine-Tails.
But suddenly—
A calm voice echoed once more.
"Trying to run?"
"That's a bit too naive."
Before the words had even fully faded, Ning Feng appeared directly in front of Obito without warning.
Only then did Obito notice something horrifying—
At some point, a space–time mark had already been placed on his body.
No matter how he tried to escape, hide, teleport, or infiltrate using space–time techniques…
Ning Feng could track him instantly.
Like a ghost.
Impossible to shake off.
Clang! Clang!
Obito took a deep breath.
From within his long sleeves, a chain slowly extended outward. Several explosive tags had already been prepared and hidden inside his cuffs.
Clearly, Obito understood one thing.
If Uchiha Feng wasn't eliminated quickly, their mission would never succeed.
Ning Feng didn't waste any words.
His sinister Mangekyō Sharingan simply locked onto Obito, as if seeing through every one of his thoughts.
If Ning Feng were to check the world announcements at this moment, he would be surprised to discover something astonishing.
With Obito's invasion of Konoha—
A massive dungeon event had just been triggered.

The moment these announcements appeared, the previously calm world chat exploded instantly.
"Awesome! A new dungeon event finally activated!"
"Our mission is actually to assist the boss Uchiha Madara!? That's amazing!"
"I heard that the big-shot Uchiha Feng will also appear this time. I wonder if he'll choose to defend Konoha or attack it!"
