Naruto: I, Uchiha Obito, will never be a slave

Fire Country, Konoha Village, Hokage Building.

A young blond man wearing a Jonin vest walked into the Hokage's office.

This young man is the yellow flash known as the fastest in the ninja world, Namikaze Minato.

At this time, after seeing the Third Hokage, he saluted politely and said: "Hokage-sama, are you looking for me?"

"Minato, how is Harano Lin's condition?"

Hearing the Hokage's inquiry, Namikaze Minato's face showed a little seriousness:

"Fortunately, Kakashi was aware of Kirigakure's plan and found me first instead of taking Lin back to the village immediately. Otherwise, the consequences would have been disastrous."

Thinking of the plan of Kirigakure Village, even Namikaze Minato couldn't help but feel a cold sweat on his back.

"The sealing technique on Harano Lin's body cannot completely seal the tailed beast's chakra, and the Kirigakure Village made it easier for the tailed beast to lose control, making the original strength of the seal very weak.

Although I have helped her modify and strengthen the seal, it is only temporary. With the awakening of the three tails, it is still difficult to say whether she can finally use the seal to suppress the power of the tailed beast. "

Namikaze Minato said with a trace of embarrassment on his face.

If a tailed beast loses control, it is definitely a very dangerous thing, both for the jinchūriki and the village.

Especially the jinchūriki who cannot control the power of the tailed beasts are an unstable factor.

Even Konoha Village will definitely consider taking special measures against such beings, including but not limited to imprisonment, replacement of Jinchuriki and other methods.

Seemingly noticing Namikaze Minato's expression, the Third Hokage puffed out a smoke ring leisurely:

"Can't even you guarantee that she won't lose control?"

After saying that, the Third Hokage stood up, came to the window, looked into the distance and sighed:

"But also, if the sealing technique itself cannot seal the chakra of the tailed beast, then the strength of the seal on the jinchuriki is related to the chakra of the jinchuriki itself.

Although Yuan Yelin is excellent, she is still young after all, and her own chakra is not strong enough. It is really difficult to say the problem of sealing. "

Namikaze Minato lowered his eyes and did not answer.

Because of the flaws in the sealing technique used by the ninjas of Kirigakure Village, even if Minato modified and strengthened it, he still could not completely seal the three tails' chakra.

In order to completely seal the three tails, the only way is to completely unlock the original seal and then use a stronger sealing technique to seal it again.

But in that case, Konoha would not only have to face the unsealed Three-Tails, Harano Lin would not be guaranteed to survive, and Konoha would not be able to find a suitable Jinchuuriki in a short time.

But if Yuan Yelin is allowed to continue like this...

Minato felt sad and painful when he remembered hearing from Kakashi about Lin's previous choices.

Seeing that Minato remained silent and made no mention of re-sealing or how to deal with Harano Lin, the Third Hokage sighed slightly inwardly.

"Now the outside of the village is not only facing the threat of war, but the inside of the village is also facing the risk of tailed beasts losing control. Kirigakure Village really posed a problem for me this time!"

After the Third Hokage finished speaking, there was a brief silence in the room.

Seeing that Namikaze Minato still didn't speak, the Third Hokage sighed again, and finally turned around and said:

"It seems that Yuan Yelin can no longer use chakra easily, but even so, there is still a risk of losing control.

For the sake of the village, I can only send ANBU to impose certain restrictions on her. I hope you can understand this! "

After hearing the words of the Third Hokage, Namikaze Minato raised his head and said:

"Yes, I will pay more attention to her in the future. If necessary, I will assist the ANBU in controlling her and will never let her harm anyone in the village."

After hearing Namikaze Minato's answer, the Third Hokage sat back down, took another puff from the pipe, spit it out slowly, and then asked:

"That's it for now. Oh, by the way, how are you and Kakashi investigating that matter? Is there any progress?"

After hearing the Third Hokage's question, Namikaze Minato's face that had just relaxed became serious again.

He knew that the Third Hokage was asking about Kakashi and Harano Lin being rescued, so he immediately briefly explained what happened to Kakashi and Harano Lin.

"Although Kakashi discovered some information at the beginning, he did not continue to follow it because of Lin.

Later, when I went with him again, based on the general direction, we found the place where the Kirigakure Village ninjas surrounded the two of them.

The corpses in Kirigakure Village may have been recovered by the enemy at that time, but..."

Namikaze Minato said, his face became a little more embarrassed.

"However, the land at the site was almost all dyed red with dried blood, and the blood-stained trees at the site were a bit strange, as if they were...wood escape."

"Wood Release?" The Third Hokage put down the pipe in his hand and looked up at Namikaze Minato.

"Ok!"

After hearing Minato Namikaze's report, the Third Hokage stood up, lingered behind the desk, and finally asked again: "What is your analysis?"

Namikaze Minato looked serious and frowned slightly:

"Based on the current intelligence, it is impossible to determine the exact number of people who fought with Kirigakure Village ninjas, but judging from the last traces, only one person saved Kakashi and Lin.

I was able to kill dozens of people from Kirigakure Village to form an elite force, and saved Kakashi and Lin. If the opponent had only one person from beginning to end, his strength would probably be higher than mine, and..."

Namikaze Minato's expression became more solemn again and he continued:

"Moreover, after the other party rescued Kakashi and Lin, he left a message on the bandage. Judging from the description, the other party did intend to save Kakashi and Harano Lin.

At the same time, the other party also knows that I know the sealing technique, and seems to have a good understanding of my strength and the plan of the entire Kirigakure Village. "

"Really? It seems that the other party does not show any malice toward us." The Third Hokage said, while thinking, subconsciously smoking a pipe in his hand.

Seeing that the Third Hokage was lost in thought, Minato stopped reporting and waited quietly.

After a long time, the Third Hokage looked at Minato and asked, "Is there any other information?"

Namikaze Minato nodded: "After Kakashi was rescued, he found a footprint when he woke up and searched the surroundings. Judging from the size of the footprint, the owner of the footprint is likely to be a woman, but I don't know if it is the same as There is a connection.”

The reason why Namikaze Minato judged that it was a woman was because the feet of adult women were smaller than those of men.

As for why he didn't think it was a young man, the main reason was that he thought the opponent was too strong.

You know, Kakashi became a Jonin at the age of 12 and is already the top being among his peers.

If it weren't for the deliberate release of the Kirigakure Village ninja, it would be a question whether he could escape alive during the siege, let alone kill all the enemies.

Therefore, Minato simply did not, or rather did not dare to think in the boy's direction.

"In addition, when Kakashi checked his ninja bag afterwards, he found that two soldiers' food pills and two kunai were missing, and they were suspected to have been taken away by the person who rescued Kakashi.

Because the bandage with the message seems to have been cut from the bandage in Kakashi's ninja bag, and... uh..."

Speaking of this, Namikaze Minato's face showed something strange.

"What's wrong?" asked the Third Hokage.

"Kakashi said that the note with the message was first found in the clothes on Yuano Lin's chest..."

Hearing this, the Third Hokage didn't show any expression on his face, only his face seemed to tremble.

"Maybe the other party is really a woman and did it out of some bad taste..."

Minato looked a little embarrassed, after all, discussing this matter about his female student...

"It's possible..." The Third Hokage sat back on his chair with a serious look on his face, no longer paying attention to this topic, but asked:

"Minato, judging from the current intelligence, the identity of the other party is still unknown.

I can't think of anyone who has the strength and reason to save Kakashi and Harano Lin, and it also involves Mu Dun, but I suspect that the other person is probably someone from our Konoha Village. "

After hearing what the Third Hokage said, Minato suddenly thought of something, and immediately said to the Third Hokage:

"There's another thing I don't quite understand, which is the way the other party saved Kakashi and Harano Lin."

"Oh? What's going on?" asked the Third Hokage.

"According to Kakashi's description, in order to commit suicide with the tailed beast, Harano Lin crashed into Kakashi's Raikiri. At that time, her entire heart was pierced and she died on the spot.

However, in the end both of them survived intact. Even the clothes were not damaged. "

"The clothes are not damaged, could it be a genjutsu?" The Third Hokage asked doubtfully, the scene of the Sharingan appearing in his mind involuntarily.

"But Kakashi had already obtained the Sharingan at that time, who could use illusion to influence him?" The Third Hokage fell into thinking again.

Namikaze Minato's face slowly became serious: "If it is really an illusion, it can prevent Kakashi, who has the Sharingan, from noticing any traces. I'm afraid..."

"I'm afraid it's a stronger Sharingan..."

The Third Hokage took over Minato's words and his expression became solemn.

Thinking of the Wood Release, Genjutsu, and the tragic death of the Kirigakure Village ninja in the incident, a name suddenly popped into the mind of the Third Hokage, Uchiha Madara.

But he gave up the idea instantly. Uchiha Madara had been dead for many years, and he had no reason to save Kakashi and the two.

After dispelling the thoughts in his mind, the Third Hokage seemed to be aware of the inappropriateness of his words just now, so he said to Namikaze Minato:

"However, this is just our speculation after all. It should not be taken as true and does not need to be spread."

"Yes!" Namikaze Minato knew what the Third Hokage meant, lowered his eyes slightly and replied.

A stronger Sharingan?

For some reason, Namikaze Minato suddenly thought of his Uchiha family student.

Although his reaction is a little slow, he is kind-hearted and hard-working. He is not as arrogant as the Uchiha family, but he treats others warmly...

If it weren't for the war, he would definitely be his most outstanding student...

"Minato, there is currently insufficient information on this matter, and we cannot pursue it further in a short period of time. Although this matter is extremely involved, it has not had much impact."

After thinking for a long time, the Third Hokage pulled Minato back from his memory.

"Now that the war is coming to an end and there is a slight shortage of manpower, we can put this matter aside for now and record the information we have obtained. We will continue to pursue this matter later when we have more information or when we have a certain amount of manpower.

However, even so, one should not let down one's guard too much, after all, this involves the First Hokage's Wood Release. "

"Yes!" Minato replied.

However, after answering, he still did not hear the next instructions from the Third Hokage.

"Sir, the Third Hokage, uh, is there anything else you can do?" Minato raised his head, looking at the Third Hokage's thoughtful expression, and asked doubtfully.

"Watergate......"

The Third Hokage took a deep puff of his pipe and replied with some consideration:

“In this war now, Kumogakure and Sunagakure have basically withdrawn from the border of Fire Country.

Our enemies currently are mainly Iwagakure and Kirigakure.

Now that Kannabi Bridge has been destroyed, the supply route of Iwagakure Village has been completely cut off, and we can say that we are in an invincible position in the battle with Iwagakure Village.

But according to the news sent back by Danzo from the front line of Amegakure Village, the ninjas of Iwagakure Village still seem to be planning something there.

Although we have the upper hand in the war with Iwagakure, this is a war after all. The more hopeless the enemy is, the more careful we should be about the opponent's counterattack.

And Kirigakure Village......"

Speaking of Kirigakure Village, the Third Hokage suddenly stopped talking, sighed inwardly and said:

"In short, this battle is not over yet. You must be ready to perform tasks at any time."

"Yes! Lord the Third Hokage." After hearing the hasty words of the Third Hokage, Minato's lowered eyes couldn't help but flash.

"Okay, you go back first! You went out on a mission and finally came back. It's time to go see Kushina!" The Third Hokage said with a sigh.

After Minato Namikaze left, the Third Hokage put down what he was doing, lay down on a chair, closed his eyes and rested.

Soon, Koharu and Mito Monobu arrived at the Hokage's office.

"Hiruzhan, your decision is too willful! Harano Lin is not Kushina. She may lose control at any time. You can't just let the ANBU secretly monitor her like Kushina."

After moving to bed, Koharu said to Sarutobi Hiruzen as soon as he entered the door.

"I know you respect Minato's opinion. After all, he is his student, but Minato is too young after all, and..."

"That's enough!" Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted Koharu who was sleeping.

"You and I both know what it means to be a Jinchuuriki. Harano Lin is a ninja, but she is even more of a child!

She is an excellent child, and she has already shouldered responsibilities that she should not bear at her age. We should help her as much as possible instead of asking her! "

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and said to the two people in front of him.

After listening to Hiruzen's words, Mito Kadoyan next to him couldn't stand it anymore: "Hiruzhan, you are too naive. When she chooses to become a ninja, she is no longer a child.

And you can't help but know that now that the Three-Tails is in Konoha Village, it is already difficult to continue the battle with Kirigakure Village.

If there is a truce and the Three-Tails is still in Konoha Village, Kirigakure will definitely demand the return of the Three-Tails. What will you do at that time?

Even if Harano Lin is handed over to Kirigakure Village, do you think Kirigakure Village will agree to continue to let a ninja from Konoha Village become a jinchuriki? "

Listening to Mito Kadoyan's straightforward words, Sarutobi Hiruzen turned dark and said nothing.

"Hmph, and you think Minato Namikaze wouldn't have guessed Harano Rin's ending if you didn't tell her? Even if he doesn't think of it now, he will definitely react afterwards!"

After going to bed, Koharu said to Sarutobi Hiruzen with some contempt.

"It's not yet that time, and everything you said may not happen. We cannot sacrifice our companions in Konoha just because of undetermined dangers!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said while looking at the two of them motionlessly.

"So you are too naive. Danzo is right. As Hokage, you are really a bit indecisive.

I will tell Danzo about this, and under special circumstances I will use my rights to directly intervene in this matter. I cannot let the village be under the threat of the tailed beast losing control! "

After going to bed, Koharu glared at Sarutobi Hiruzen fiercely, and then left the office, followed closely by Mito Kadoen.

After the two left for a long time, the Third Hokage lay on the back of the chair, looked up at the ceiling, exhaled slowly, and showed a trace of relaxation on his face.

It's nice to have companions. If I were alone, I'm afraid...
