Chapter 16 - Unveiling Obito

*SHUA—*

Minato teleported back, having already placed Naruto and Kushina in safety.

He just wanted to return quickly and figure out why the First and Second Hokage were here. And what was Lux's identity?

However, he found that Hiruzen had arrived and seemed to be getting 'scolded' by Tobirama?

It was difficult for Minato to interrupt.

He had to approach quietly, silently listening.

"Saru, I know about Kagami. But since the Kyuubi has gone out of control, why didn't you allow ninjas from the Uchiha Clan to join the resistance? You should know that their Sharingan has a special effect on the Bijuu."

"This..."

Hiruzen was caught in a bind; this wasn't his own decision.

It was a collective decision by Konoha's higher-ups that it was better not to let the Uchiha Clan face the Kyuubi, lest they secretly control it.

However, at this moment, Hiruzen's character wouldn't betray Danzo and the others, so he could only bite his tongue and say:

"The Kyuubi is controlled by the Sharingan, I worry about the Uchiha."

Tobirama didn't wait for Hiruzen to finish his explanation before he cursed:

"Are you stupid? Even if an Uchiha ninja controlled the Kyuubi, would the current situation be any worse?"

"Ah, this..."

Hiruzen was stunned for a moment, then gradually realized.

Regardless of whether the Kyuubi was controlled by an Uchiha ninja in the village, it wouldn't be worse if they were allowed to stop the Kyuubi.

After all, the Kyuubi had been manipulated.

Perhaps it could devour a few more ninjas, reducing the overall strength of the Uchiha Clan.

Why did he ignore this?

Damn, he seemed like an idiot?

Seeing the confused old Hiruzen, Tobirama frowned even more unhappily.

It was clear that the Hiruzen of 34 years ago had no fear, even if he died alone.

Why was he so cowardly now?

How did he become like this?

The older they got, the more they worried, and the easier it was to lose their original courage. But as Hokage, shouldn't he be lacking such awareness and courage?

"I made a mistake!"

Facing Tobirama, Hiruzen had no choice but to honestly admit his mistake.

"But who is controlling the Kyuubi? To control the Kyuubi, even the Sharingan needs incredibly strong eye power."

Minato immediately responded, "A mysterious man wearing a tiger-striped mask, he does have the Sharingan, and it's incredibly strong, very mysterious, and has special space-time abilities."

"Able to kill several of the Third Hokage's ANBU, pass through the highest secret barrier, know that the Kyuubi's seal will weaken when the Jinchuriki gives birth, and can open the Four Symbol Seal and control the Kyuubi, even able to come and go freely."

This time, Minato, who didn't use the Dead Demon Consuming Seal, could finally reveal Obito's information to Konoha.

Hearing this, Hiruzen was shocked.

"Impossible! How could there be such a ninja?"

It was rare for a ninja to meet one of the two conditions above, let alone meet all of them.

It was almost impossible for such a person to exist!

Just because the other party could freely pass through Konoha's great barrier proved that the other party wasn't a ninja from another village.

"It's possible! As far as I know, there is someone in history who could satisfy this!"

"Minato, are you referring to Uchiha Madara?"

"Yes, he's the only one who meets all the requirements."

"That's even more impossible! He's been dead for a long time! Everyone from the First and Second Hokage generations knows."

Hiruzen didn't want to believe it; he was too aware of Madara's power and terror.

"That's not Madara!"

"If it were Madara, without me, if he wanted to destroy the village, he wouldn't need the Kyuubi's help at all."

Hashirama opened his mouth and made the final decision.

No one in this world knew Madara better than him. With just a glance, Hashirama could tell that Obito was clearly not Madara.

If it were truly Madara, Minato wouldn't have been able to defeat him.

"Brother is right about this. That person isn't Madara. Most likely, he's an Uchiha ninja, and he must still be very young."

Tobirama was also very confident; he was the second person who understood Madara.

He even knew more than his older brother in some aspects. Just looking at the forbidden techniques he developed for the Uchiha Clan was enough to illustrate the problem.

"How is that possible? What kind of young Uchiha could master so many secrets? Have such power?"

Hiruzen was shocked again.

He even doubted whether Fugaku, the clan leader, had secretly developed a secret killer!

"No need to guess, that person is Uchiha Obito."

Lux didn't bother to polish the hidden information, so he directly brought up Obito.

He wanted to use Minato to directly unify Parallel World 4, but he wasn't here to clear Obito's name.

In fact, as long as all the information about Akatsuki was known.

Perhaps Minato himself could destroy the entire Akatsuki organization at this stage!

"My student, Obito?"

"Correct."

Minato and Hiruzen were both shocked and silently exclaimed: How could this be?

On the other hand, Hashirama and Tobirama had never met Obito and didn't know each other at all.

"Impossible, Obito died in battle!"

"Did you find his body?"

Minato searched for Obito's body after the Battle of Kannabi Bridge.

However, he found that the battlefield had been scorched by a fierce fire, leaving only charred corpses that couldn't be distinguished. Considering it might be Iwagakure ninjas venting their anger, Konoha didn't pay much attention.

Only the charred corpses were collected and buried in a tombstone.

Looking back now, there was indeed a place where someone could manipulate something.

"But the masked man and Obito are very different in stature. They don't look like the same person, and there's no reason for Obito to attack me."

Under Madara's transformation and thanks to the White Zetsu cells, Obito's voice, body shape, strength, and appearance all changed drastically.

Unless Minato was given the Byakugan, how could he recognize Obito?

Minato couldn't imagine that Obito, who died in battle as a hero, suddenly switched sides and attacked him and Kushina.

"I've told you the truth. How you verify it is your own business. I'm not a treasure chest that answers every question."

Lux said coldly, he still had to pretend to be an immortal being.

It would be easier to continue dealing with Minato later.

"Okay, I'll find a way to verify it!"

Minato didn't hesitate, Lux and the others saved him and his wife, and there was no reason to lie to him.

Since he was still alive, he could slowly verify the truth in the future.

"Hmph. This wicked Uchiha is truly troublesome!"

Tobirama snorted again, still hating the Uchiha Clan.

Hashirama frowned and shouted, "Tobirama!"

In response, Tobirama immediately changed the subject and asked Minato again:

"Yondaime, where are your ANBU?"

They observed the whole process but didn't find any ANBU support from Minato. Why was a dignified Fourth Hokage acting like a good commander?

"I just took the position of Hokage not long ago, and the ANBU are still being formed."

Minato scratched his head in embarrassment.

This was one of his reasons, but not the main one. Apparently, the clever Minato knew what to say and what not to say.

Tobirama turned and stared deeply at Hiruzen, already guessing something.

How could the Hokage successfully ascend to the throne and not even have ANBU forces available?

Although the Third Ninja World War had just ended here, every village suffered many casualties.

However, it wasn't to the point where even a few elite ANBU groups couldn't be assembled.

When first facing the Kyuubi, Hiruzen's ANBU ninjas rushed towards them one after another to die.

"Saru, you'll send a group of ANBU ninjas to be used by Yondaime first."

"Yes!"

Hiruzen immediately agreed without hesitation.

Don't talk about him, Danzo was here.

Facing Tobirama, all he could do was wait for his ass to be kicked, so how dare he say no?
