A Chance to Rephrase That
"?"
The return of consciousness to his body startled Minato Namikaze for a moment.
This is... the real world!?
I've been resurrected?
Wrong!
This body has no sense of being alive; there is no heartbeat, no temperature, no breath, and no touch.
"Impure World Reincarnation?"
As the Fourth Hokage of Konoha, Minato Namikaze had naturally seen the Scroll of Seals and knew about the forbidden technique Impure World Reincarnation.
The cave was dimly lit, Minato Namikaze curiously examined it...
A colossal statue, with an incredibly strong Chakra reaction, even rivaling that of the Nine-Tails ...
Wrong!
This is definitely not a statue, but a life form containing immeasurable Chakra!
Under the statue...
Five guys dressed in strange clothes... are they looking at me?
Minato Namikaze is a bit slow.
"They must have resurrected me!"
That being said, Minato Namikaze had already become wary.
These guys used the Impure World Reincarnation to revive themselves, surely not to do good deeds or worship themselves?
The first guy... with weird round eyes?
The second one... a blue-haired beauty? Ahem!
A third guy?
Huh? Why is this guy half black and half white? Is he sick?
The fourth one is an old acquaintance!
Orochimaru!
This wasn't the first time Minato Namikaze had been resurrected by Orochimaru, but this was the first time he had been so fully conscious.
This feeling... if it weren't for the lack of physical sensation, it would be as if I had truly come back to life!
As for the fifth one?
A Masked Man!
"It's you!?"
Minato Namikaze stared intently at the Masked Man.
Even though you changed your mask, I still recognized you at first glance!
The culprit who stripped the Nine-Tails from Kushina's body, causing the deaths of Kushina and himself, and leaving Naruto without his parents!
He is also the mastermind behind controlling the Nine-Tails' invasion of Konoha!
"Minato Namikaze, we meet again!" Obito in a low voice, his Three Tomoe Sharingan beneath the mask looking at Minato Namikaze without any emotion.
Minato Namikaze's expression changed.
Even though he was a bit slow on the uptake, given the current situation and the enormous statue containing a massive amount of Chakra, Minato Namikaze almost instantly grasped the current predicament.
Are they... after the Nine-Tails?
His brows furrowed slightly.
If it's for the sake of Nine-Tails, then their going to great lengths to revive themselves might prove that Naruto is safe for the time being!
I looked up at the huge statue in the cave.
Such a massive amount of Chakra ...
Is this the container used to seal the Tailed Beasts?
"As expected of the Fourth Hokage, its insight is truly sharp!"
Orochimaru exclaimed in admiration, then formed a strange hand seal, strengthening his control over Minato Namikaze.
Pain turned to look at Orochimaru.
Orochimaru cursed inwardly, but he had no choice but to pay the price for the boast he had made.
Originally... because Nagato lacked control over the Rinnegan and the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path, even if all members of the Akatsuki were present, it would still take three days to seal the Tailed Beasts.
However, when Orochimaru joined the Akatsuki for the second time, Orochimaru was in high spirits because of the great things he had done in the past, and he made a boast on the spot:
I can control Minato Namikaze to willingly offer up the Nine-Tails!
This wouldn't have been a big deal originally, as it was just to prove his control over the Impure World Reincarnation and make the organization more wary of him.
But now, we can't even stall for time anymore!
'Da... Da...'
Minato Namikaze slowly stepped out of the coffin. Although his face was expressionless, the struggle in his eyes betrayed the Minato Namikaze in his heart.
Orochimaru's powerful control over the Impure World Reincarnation made it impossible for Minato Namikaze to control his own body.
And this is still the case when Orochimaru hasn't revealed his single Rinnegan.
If Orochimaru cards, even Madara Uchiha and Hashirama Senju might not have been able to break free from Orochimaru control.
"What exactly do you want to do?" Minato Namikaze questioned.
"Of course, it's for world domination!"
Pain said matter-of-factly, "The Nine-Tails within you can bring peace to this chaotic world!"
"... After all, you're from the same school, so you should be able to understand Jiraiya- sensei's desire for peace!"
Despite being from the same school, Nagato somewhat respected Minato Namikaze. He even stated that, as the villain, he was willing to speak up for Minato Namikaze once more.
"Jiraiya? Teacher?"
Minato Namikaze paused for a moment, then seemed to realize something.
Thus, Minato and Nagato, both students Jiraiya Raiya, engaged in a heated debate about 'world peace'.
"..."
Orochimaru and Black Zetsu exchanged a silent glance.
Very good!
You two can keep arguing like this!
From a top-down perspective, in a black and white world, only Sasuke is quietly waiting at the agreed-upon location.
"Damn Orochimaru and Black Zetsu, how dare they stand me up!"
Hinata was furious!
No wonder they're all single. Don't they know that being late for a date is a woman's prerogative?
Hinata turned her gaze away and sat down at the dressing table, silently beginning to apply her makeup.
Ino learned this from Hinata!
After all... today is the day she officially meets Kaguya Otsutsuki, and Hinata is determined to be the best version of herself.
Since we're already late, it's no big deal to make Sasuke wait a little longer.
At exactly 10 o'clock, Hinata activated Yomotsu Hirasaka and appeared silently beside Sasuke.
"!"
Sasuke quickly stood up and drew his sword. When he saw that the person who came was Hinata, Sasuke silently sheathed his Kusanagi Sword, but his eyes were fixed on Hinata's forehead.
Six-Tomoe Rinnegan!
He originally thought that after awakening a single ordinary Rinnegan and a single Six-Tomoe Rinnegan, he was qualified to fight Hinata.
But I never expected... that you can open eyes on your forehead?
"Uh-huh!"
Hinata floated down in front of Sasuke, cleared her throat, and asked with her hands behind her back, "Sasuke, do you see any changes in me today?"
Sasuke hearing this, Sasuke's Sharingan nearly rolled back into Byakugan!
Do you think I'm a shrimp?
"I saw it!"
"Then tell me!"
"Six-Tomoe Rinnegan... It seems you've obtained Urashiki!"
Hinata: "???"
"Is there anything else?"
"The Otsutsuki clan is indeed very interesting. I wonder what the other members of this clan are like!"
Sasuke is now eagerly anticipating meeting an Otsutsuki.
Hinata revealed that the Sharingan's evolutionary limit is the Rinne Sharingan, also known as the Nine-Tomo Rinnegan!
The Six-Tomoe Rinnegan alone greatly increased Sasuke's strength; if it were nine -Tomoe ...
He should be able to easily defeat Hinata, right?
If Hinata knew what Sasuke was thinking, she would definitely say: You're dreaming!
Hinata's strength lies not only in her Dōjutsu, but also in her powerful life force!
Sasuke's current state... is merely the transition from an ordinary person to Sage Body, still a long way from Hinata's level!
Moreover, Sasuke doesn't know Sage Mode, so the difference between the two is even greater.
But that's not what Hinata wanted to ask!
Floating in front of Sasuke, Hinata asked again, "Look at me carefully, kid. Don't you see any difference?"
Here's a chance for you to reorganize your language!
