No...
It wasn't over yet. Not yet!
Staring at the place where Minato Namikaze and Kushina had vanished, the ecstatic, disbelievingly stiff smile on Chiba's lips slowly faded—a smile born from the fact that Kushina had been successfully rescued and transferred away before the Nine-Tails could be extracted. In its place came a look of vigilance.
"Poof!"
At the same time, he abruptly raised his right hand and formed a hand seal. A cloud of white mist burst out beside him, and then, from within the mist, a hand extended flatly and pressed against the surface of the water sphere floating in midair.
Before the white mist could disperse, Chiba released the hand pressing against the water sphere and walked to the corner where Kushina had been leaning. Squatting down, he picked up the Flying Thunder God Kunai there. Green flames flickered in his eyes as he held the kunai in his left hand and gently pressed his right hand against its hilt, over the inscription carved there: "Sword of Ninja Love."
In an instant, a circular Sealing Jutsu Formula formed from Tadpole Script spread out from his right palm, completely enveloping the four words "Sword of Ninja Love" and cutting off the mark.
Since you've already left, don't come back for me! Just wait safely until this is over.
Kushina, Minato...
As he sealed the Flying Thunder God mark once more, that thought passed through Chiba's mind.
"Not good!"
However, the instant that thought crossed his mind, Chiba suddenly looked up. Alarm flashed across his face as though he had remembered something critically important, and he abruptly turned around.
Damn it! The Curse Binding Technique can only suppress a person's Chakra and ability to move for about three seconds. It should have worn off by now!
Obito!
His heart
