Naruto: Six Paths of the Senju Family

Konoha's defense line at the junction of Tianno Country and Yuno Country.

Namikaze Minato squatted among the branches and leaves of the big tree, looking warily at the sudden appearance of several ninjas dressed as Kumogakure in the distance.

"It should be the team sent by Yunyin to explore the road."

"Zhen Yang, go back and inform Senior Xuan Weng that Yunyin's people are here!"

A head with the same blond hair poked out from a nearby branch, looking at Namikaze Minato with a worried expression.

"Minato, there are quite a few of them, can you handle them all by yourself?"

Namikaze Minato pulled out a weird-looking kunai from his waist, made two empty gestures, and showed a confident smile.

"My speed is relatively fast. After I deal with these guys, it won't take long to catch up with you."

"If you go back too slowly, the credit for delivering the information will be attributed to me!"

After Orochimaru-sama's introduction, and after getting along with Minato for so long, Shinyo naturally knew that he was not the kind of person who liked to talk big.

Seeing that Minato was still in the mood to joke, Shinyo no longer hesitated, gave him a cautious look, and quietly hurried towards the camp.

There was his father, a ninja who had reached the master level in the art of traps, sitting there. He would definitely be able to teach these guys who wanted to invade Konoha an unforgettable lesson.

When Minato Namikaze saw Shinyo leaving, he stretched out his hand and pressed on the big tree at his feet. A black line quietly appeared on the trunk, and then disappeared quickly.

Minato finished his preparations and quietly moved to a position further back, waiting with bated breath for the few Kumo ninjas who were exploring the path to approach.

"Ahead is the junction of the Three Kingdoms, and Konoha's ninjas are likely to ambush there!"

"Everyone, be careful!"

"Ai, stand behind me."

"Lord Raikage has clearly explained that the war is not something you should be involved in now, but you actually disobeyed the Third Generation's orders and secretly followed the team."

"If something goes wrong, how do you want me to explain to Raikage-sama, Huiyun?"

Yukai looked at Ai who was following him with a headache expression, and kept complaining.

As a Jonin of Kumogakure Village, he was very aware of the status of this boy who inherited the name of Raikage Ai early in his life in the mind of the Third Raikage.

But Yukai never expected that Ai, who was supposed to be left to practice in the village by the Raikage-sama, would suddenly run into the frontline troops attacking Konoha and forcefully ask to join the team that was investigating the intelligence.

After Yukai's earnest attempts to dissuade him, he finally failed to dispel Ai's yearning for the battlefield. In the end, there was really no choice. For Ai's safety, he could only hold his nose and follow him as a nanny.

This turned the original exploration team of three into five.

Ai heard Yukai's complaint and waved his hand nonchalantly.

"What could be the problem?"

"Look at the ninjas in the village now. Who else is stronger than me?"

"I know my dad wanted to protect me by not letting me get exposed to war so early."

Yukai was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that this guy who seemed to dislike thinking as much as Raikage-sama, actually knew that Raikage-sama was trying to protect him.

"Since you know this is to protect you, why don't you obey Raikage-sama's orders and run out privately?"

Ai's expression suddenly became serious, and a killing intent slowly appeared in his eyes.

"But I have a reason why I have to fight in this war!"

Looking at Ai, who suddenly became full of murderous intent, Yukai had a trace of doubt on his face.

"What reason?"

Ai clenched his fist hard, and a layer of lightning slowly glowed on his arm.

"Because Dodai-sensei died in Konoha!"

"I'm going to avenge him!"

Yukai was stunned, and suddenly felt that Ai was a little confused.

"After we invade Konoha, we will naturally avenge Lord Dodai."

"Why do you have to risk yourself on the battlefield?"

Ai shook his head angrily and said seriously:

"You do not understand!"

"Teacher Tutai is not only one of my teachers who taught me how to practice, he is also the key person in the village who is responsible for testing the AB combination to perform the Juniu Thunder Plow Hot Knife."

"The reason why Bi and I have not been able to meet dad's requirements is because we lack the help of Teacher Tutai!"

"Konoha owes me this and I must get it back with my own hands!"

Only then did Yukai look stunned, then sighed deeply, patted Ai on the shoulder and said:

"All right!"

"You're already here anyway, I can't just send you back."

"you"

"careful!"

As Yukai spoke, he saw a kunai flying quickly towards Ai from the corner of his eye. His expression changed, he grabbed Ai and left the place in a flash.

Ai impatiently broke away from Yukai's hand and looked at the three-pronged kunai stuck on the ground with an unhappy expression.

"No need to make such a fuss, this kind of kunai can't hurt me at all!"

Turning his head to look at the direction where the kunai was flying, Ai had a trace of disdain in his eyes, and arcs of electricity shot up from his body.

"You dare to make a sneak attack, but you don't dare to come out to see people?"

"Konoha's"

"waste!"

Since Namikaze Minato dared to take the initiative to attack, he had no intention of continuing to hide. He jumped from the tree to the ground gracefully, looking at the arrogant Ai, with an indifferent arc at the corner of his mouth.

"The ninjas of Konoha are all excellent partners with the will of fire, and they are not the trash you call them!"

After Minato finished speaking, he reached out and took out a large handful of three-pronged kunai, and threw it at the five people again like a goddess scattering flowers.

There was a ferocious look on Ai's face, and he slapped away the kunai flying toward him. He kicked the ground with his feet, exploding a large piece of soil. His body was wrapped in lightning and shot towards Minato.

"Is this the only way you can attack?"

"That is definitely a waste!"

Yukai looked at the calm Minato with a serious expression on his face.

Years of fighting intuition told him that he dared to take the initiative to attack when there were more enemies than him on the battlefield. The guy who acted so calmly when he was about to be attacked was either a fool or definitely not an ordinary ninja.

"Ai, don't be careless!"

"Get rid of him as quickly as possible, so as not to attract the attention of other Konoha ninjas!"

Ai's muffled sound as he sprinted at high speed could be heard in the distance.

"rest assured!"

Minato was certainly not a fool.

Seeing Ai's fist flashing with lightning and almost hitting the tip of his nose, Minato disappeared in an instant.

"boom!"

There was an explosion in the air, Ai's blow missed, and he looked at the empty front in surprise.

"What a quick teleportation technique!"

Yukai looked at the place where Minato disappeared with an equally surprised expression. Just as he was about to remind Ai to be careful around him, he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and a kunai instantly cut his throat.

"Well"

The sound of blood splattering rang in his ears, Minato withdrew his kunai, and his figure disappeared again.

Yukai covered his severed throat, trying to remind Ai something, but he only let out a weak hiss, and finally fell to the ground slowly and unwillingly.

Since the death of the Second Hokage Senju Tobirama, the Flying Thunder God Jutsu has reappeared in the ninja world on this small battlefield through the hands of Namikaze Minato, using the end of the life of a Kumogakure jounin as a signal.
