Chapter 163

This is Uzumaki Kushina's secret birthing location.

Eight members of a squad from the Anbu stood guard at various points outside the cave entrance, protecting the surrounding area.

Inside the cave, Kushina lay on the prepared birthing bed, crying out in pain.

As she was giving birth, black Sealing Jutsu appeared on her body.

When Jinchūriki is giving birth, the Sealing Jutsu's effect is greatly weakened, and this is also the time when they are at their weakest.

"I've never seen Kushina scream in pain so loudly before... Are you really okay?"

Minato Namikaze glanced nervously at his wife, then looked at Biwako beside him.

"No problem, just keep a close eye on the Nine-Tails' seal."

Biwako, who was in the midst of delivering the baby, replied.

"But..." Minato Namikaze's face broke out in sweat, a hint of worry flashing in his eyes.

"You're the Fourth Hokage, how can you be so flustered! Men die from pain, but women are very strong!" Biwako scolded.

"Yes..."

Minato Namikaze Kushina immediately nodded and continued to channel chakra into Chakra to help stabilize the sealing technique.

Roar~~~!

The phantom of the Nine-Tails flashed through Kushina's mind.

"Ughhhhh! Such power... Nine-Tails... It's desperately trying to break free..." Kushina gritted her teeth, her forehead covered in sweat.

"Kushina, do your best! And Naruto too..."

Minato Namikaze's eyebrows twitched as he encouraged his wife and unborn child.

Outside.

Wow...

Obito Uchiha, and the Anbu corpse slowly sank into the water...

He swiftly dispatched the eight members of the Anbu.

Then...

Obito Uchiha looked up at the cave.

Then, he slowly walked towards the rock wall, and with the Kamui of his Dōjutsu, his body passed straight through it...

Inside the cave, everyone watched with bated breath as Kushina gave birth.

Therefore, they did not discover what was happening outside.

"She'll be born soon... Kushina, good luck!" Biwako whispered.

"Go for it, Kushina!" shouted Sheci, a female ninja from the Anbu who was helping with the delivery, and a disciple of Biwako.

With a cry.

The baby's loud cries echoed throughout the cave.

"Very good..."

Minato Namikaze breathed a sigh of relief, a relieved smile spreading across his face.

Biwako: "Very energetic, it's a boy! Sheci, quickly get hot water and towels."

Sheci: "Yes!"

"Haha... From today onwards, I am a father." Minato Namikaze.

"Naruto... I've finally... met you..."

As a mother, Kushina shed tears of joy as she watched her crying child.

Then.

Biwako and Sheci took the child and began to wash it with hot water...

However, the next moment, something unexpected happened.

Thump! Thump!

Biwako Sarutobi and Sheci lay on the ground, blood seeping from beneath them.

"Lord Biwako! Sheci!"

Minato Namikaze, who was focused on his wife, suddenly turned around.

Then they saw... a masked man in black holding little Naruto in his arms. "Fourth Hokage, leave the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, or... this child will die immediately!"

Konoha, an izakaya (Japanese pub).

Orochimaru sat in the corner, drinking with someone.

"I remember you never drink."

The person who came here was none other than Shinnō, who had disguised himself!

At that moment, he appeared in Konoha, drinking with Orochimaru!

"Heh heh..." Orochimaru held the wine glass, a sinister smile flashing across his face.

"I heard you lost the Hokage election."

A fun-loving person isn't afraid of making things worse.

Shinnō joked.

"..."

Orochimaru's murderous gaze seemed to drop the temperature of the air several degrees.

"Alright, I'm here to finalize a deal with you."

Shinnō still remembered the important matter.

Orochimaru has been conducting various biological experiments.

Over the years, it has achieved excellent results.

For example, they extracted the "White Snake Power" and researched "Soft Body Modification" and the cells of the White Phosphorus Serpent.

This allowed him to take Tsunade's Monstrous Strength head-on, granting him extremely astonishing blunt force resistance.

It can also lengthen limbs, neck, and other parts.

It can also make the body as flexible as a snake.

Then came all sorts of illegal human experiments.

In his quest for immortality, Orochimaru committed numerous atrocities, including conducting research and dissections on other people's bodies.

To further enhance his abilities, Orochimaru needs Shinnō's "Body Activation Technique".

"Is the 'Eight Gates Released Formation' on you?" Shinnō asked.

He traded Body Activation Technique for the Eight Gates Released Formation.

This deal...

"I'm at a huge disadvantage," Orochimaru said.

You need to offer more.

"Forget it, the Eight Gates Released Formation is a technique for mediocre people like you."

Shinnō shook his head.

What value is there in a technique that is completely useless?

Despite saying this, Shinnō still took out a small transparent bag.

Inside... there are some hair samples.

And inside was the hair of his disciple, Amakawa Akito.

"..."

Orochimaru's originally cold gaze suddenly turned fervent.

He took the small bag and put it away.

He then handed the scroll of the Eight Gates Released Formation to Shinnō.

"It's a pleasure doing business with you."

Shinnō smiled knowingly, then turned and left.

What he was thinking was...

Orochimaru, who has always been obsessed with bloodlines, might one day make a breakthrough in his research.

What will his expression be when he discovers that the Ming dynasty Akito he always thought possessed a powerful bloodline, who is actually my disciple, is just an ordinary person?

"Hmph hmph hmph..."

Shinnō shrugged his shoulders, letting out a series of cheerful laughs, and left the izakaya...

95. Digging up Rin Nohara's coffin

Konoha Cemetery.

Dark clouds drifted across the sky.

The bright moonlight, pale and ghastly, seemed to foreshadow something ominous.

"Father..."

Kurenai Yuhi stood before the tombstone, closing her eyes in silent mourning.

The next second, she opened her eyes, her gaze filled with determination.

"I must..."

I will kill Amakawa Akito to avenge you!

Boom!!

A sudden, loud bang rang in my ears.

Kurenai Yuhi was startled.

But the ninja's alertness made her immediately turn around and look at the source of the sound.

A figure slowly emerged from the thick cloud of dust.

"!"

After staring at the Kurenai Yuhi for a moment, Kurenai Yuhi's pupils suddenly contracted, and she froze on the spot.

"..."

Akito looked around and realized that he had just passed through the sky and landed directly in the Konoha Cemetery.

This action.

It will pass through the sensory barrier that surrounds the entire Konoha.

In other words, it was detected by Konoha's Sensory Division in an instant.

But so what?

At my own pace, completing the preparations for the plan would only take a few seconds.

Even if they send people to investigate the location of the cemetery, it will be too late.

"Um?"

Looking around for Rin Nohara's gravestone, the Akito suddenly spotted a figure that shouldn't be there.
