In Obito's house.
Grandma Madara, who was receiving two Yuuji clones and taking care of her from all directions, suddenly opened her eyes.
"This feeling, is it White Zetsu? But there is something wrong with his aura..." Grandma Madara pondered and sat up.
"Ah, Obito's grandmother, why are you awake? It is the time for you to sleep. You have to maintain a good sleep to prolong your life!"
A shadow clone pressed down Madara's grandmother at that time.
"..."
Grandma Madara secretly gritted her teeth. She estimated the remaining lifespan of her body. She wanted to choose a perfect opportunity to stimulate Obito and then die. But the bad thing was that she had not found this opportunity yet.
The little devil in Shiranui's house was like a piece of dog skin plaster, desperately clinging to her body.
"Shiranui Yuuji... I will kill you sooner or later."
Grandma Madara slowly closed her eyes.
…..
In the vicinity of Kannabi Bridge.
Madara, who was in his original form, immediately called White Zetsu over and asked about Yuuji's situation.
"There's nothing I can do, Madara-sama. That little brat controls Blood Succession Boundary, and he's extremely restraining me. As soon as he gets close to me, he'll be affected by that power."
"How much do you know about his blood inheritance?"
"In general, it can't be called poison, but a special energy field. As long as it is within the range of his perception, it will be affected by that power. Madara-sama, do you need me to find an opportunity to assassinate him? If I join hands with Tobi*, I might be able to break through Aburame Shibi's swarm and successfully kill him." White Zetsu laughed.
[*TL Note: Tobi, nicknamed Guruguru (English TV: Swirly) by Obito Uchiha for the swirl pattern of his face, was one of the first victims of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, and eventually was pulled from the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path by Black Zetsu.]
"No need. This little ghost is not worth mentioning. Without the blood of Senju and Uchiha, he is destined to be a supporting role on the stage." Madara slowly closed his eyes.
White Zetsu stared at him for a while, and a trace of intelligence and cunning flashed through his eyes. Even Madara did not notice it.
..…..
Konoha.
As the experiment progressed to this step, Yuuji became more and more aware of the terrifying power of the shadow clone.
One must know that the shadow clone was completely constructed from Chakra, unlike the water body and the rock body, which needed some material as the frame and Chakra carrier.
However, the shadow clone, a pure carat polymer, could return all the memories to the main body when it exploded.
"I have already grasped half of the key."
Yuuji nodded slightly.
'As long as the complete Nuclear Release clone was created, many problems would no longer be a problem.'
...
When Yuuji walked out of the laboratory after many days, he unexpectedly received a piece of news.
"Oh? Minato actually returned to the village..."
Walking on the street, many villagers were talking about Lord Minato with a fanatical face.
"Lord Minato, that man who always has a smile on his face..."
"Because he was here, he forced Kumogakure back! Even Kumogakure's Jinchuriki was no match for him!"
On both sides of the street, there were noisy crowds everywhere. The moment they saw Minato, they all cheered. It could be seen how popular Minato was.
But it was no wonder. Minato was the rare rising Kage-level, and he was worthy of this kind of treatment.
Yuuji squeezed in the crowd and also looked at the whole process with an excited expression. He looked at Minato with a smile on his face and a group of injured frontline Ninjas, returning to the village with glory.
He also saw Umino Ikkaku. —That guy had one arm wrapped in bandages, and he was smiling like a fool.
"Yuuji-san! Yuuji-san! Come with me, Kakashi and Genma are fighting!"
Guy shouted, grabbed Yuuji, and ran away.
Those who did not know would think that these two impatient young people were planning to do something.
"Look, he is Kakashi!" Guy pointed at a guy who was fighting in the training ground.
"... Of course I know that he is Kakashi. Although he is not from the same class, he is the strongest genius in Konoha. Who doesn't know..."
'However... Why did Genma fight with Kakashi? Was it a challenge between the middle class students and the head student?'
At this time, there was only a sound of vibration. Genma's whole body was smashed by Kakashi's heavy fist, and he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot and flew out horizontally.
The attack was very heavy, very heavy, simply aimed to kill.
"So you are Shiranui Yuuji. Minato-sensei has a very high evaluation of you... Let's fight to the end." Kakashi's entire body emitted killing intent.
Kakashi, who had just lost his father two years ago, had reached the extremes of his mind and could turn black at any time. At this time, he directly pulled out his white teeth knife, left Genma, and walked step by step towards Yuuji.
"Kakashi, we haven't decided the victor yet!" Genma struggled to get up and spat out Root and Senbon.
But this Senbon was immediately sent flying by Kakashi's backhand knife. "Get lost, I have no interest in trash. If you didn't claim to be Yuuji, I would never have had any interest in attacking you."
"No! Even if you are the chief student, you have no right to call me trash... I am the patriarch of the Shiranui clan!"
Genma raised his head, his eyes bloodshot. However, what responded to him was Kakashi's ruthless punch. With this punch, Genma would basically have to lie down for a week.
Pa!
"Kakashi, it is not good to treat my remaining clansmen like this. This should not be your attitude towards your companions."
Yuuji appeared at an astonishing speed. He grabbed Kakashi's fist and blocked in front of Genma.
Guy also frowned and looked at the scene in front of him in shock. "Kakashi, what happened to you? Why did you become like this... You are getting more and more overboard!"
"The companions of Root are not important. Minato and Sensei said that you are comparable to me, so defeating you is my current task."
Kakashi clenched his white teeth knife. This was a relic left by his father, and it was also the proof of his faith.
Yuuji frowned and looked at Genma with a bloody nose and a swollen face. He vaguely understood.
'The so-called self-esteem was really a troublesome thing…'
'He urgently wanted to confirm his status and then forcibly challenge Kakashi? But at this time, he was an unreasonable guy. Only after he got together with Obito, he improve.'
"I have already reminded you that there is no need to carry meaningless things, such as the name of the clan..." Yuuji said indifferently.
Genma had a bitter expression on his face. "I can't help it. I am the clan leader. There are some things that you can not do. You only need to be yourself, while I can not... Shiranui's clan, no matter how small, is still a clan."
"Is that so..."
Yuuji slowly got up and looked at Kakashi.
"Let's fight to the end. There is no need to waste time on the so-called companions. Only strength and mission are things that a qualified ninja needs to pay attention to. You don't understand such a simple truth?" Kakashi said indifferently. At that time, he brazenly waved his blade. His movements were agile and his breath was bloody.
Guy was about to stop him. However, Yuuji stopped him. As his figure retreated quickly, he slowly said, "Let's make it clear first. You have to pay the price for challenging me. Kakashi, be careful not to be killed by me."
