Chapter 579

Upon landing, Hiruko used the Chimera Technique: "Watch me restore your Ninjutsu to Chakra!"

Hiruko began reverse deconstruction.

However...

It wasn't until Naruto Uzumaki rushed up to him that he realized something was wrong.

"How is this possible?! I can't even break down your spell?!"

The S-rank Wind Release: Rasenshuriken... was slammed down hard onto Hiruko's body...

Countless dense attacks, combined with the cutting power of Wind Release, completely engulfed Hiruko himself...

"Lin, that's how it is."

Kushina told Rin Nohara the truth.

Rin Nohara's eyes widened. "How... could this be...?"

Soon, her eyes began to tremble, like those of a frightened little animal.

The ultimate villain, the masked man, the culprit behind all the destruction, is actually... Obito...?!

"Lin, I know... you're finding it hard to accept this fact..."

Seeing Rin Nohara's dazed expression, Kushina was overcome with sadness.

If I hadn't told the truth...

Lin wouldn't have reacted so violently.

But there's nothing we can do about it.

Because that is indeed the truth.

Moreover, as the price, the deal, for Naruto's survival... he must obey the Emperor's arrangement and tell Rin the truth.

"What about Kakashi? How is Kakashi doing now?"

Lin asked.

Kushina: "Huh?"

He was slightly taken aback.

Kushina answered Rin's question, "Kakashi... is now the Sixth Hokage."

According to the intelligence we just received.

Kakashi has been appointed the new Hokage in a time of crisis and has joined the Fourth Shinobi World War.

"Kakashi... has become Hokage." Rin Nohara breathed a sigh of relief.

Kushina was puzzled by her sudden change in expression.

"Lin?"

"As long as Kakashi is alright..." Rin Nohara said.

???

This time, it was Kushina's turn to be stunned.

After a moment, Kushina couldn't help but ask, "Rin... don't you... like Obito?"

"How could this be...?"

Rin Nohara shook her head.

"I've always considered Obito a comrade, but the one I like is... Kakashi."

Kushina: "..."

Even the ultimate simp, Obito Uchiha, understood this.

Rin Nohara only likes Kakashi.

In the original Naruto manga.

In my youth.

He had observed all of Kakashi and Rin Nohara's interactions.

There's even a scene in the manga where Kakashi casually puts his hand on Rin Nohara's shoulder, and the two leave chatting and laughing.

This scene was witnessed by Obito Uchiha.

Obito Uchiha's eyes dimmed.

How could he not know what Rin Nohara was thinking?

The official Naruto guidebook, "The Book of Jin," even includes an illustration and the caption. "To protect Konoha, she decided to die at the hands of the one she loved."

And that person was Kakashi. The picture shows the scene where Rin Nohara deliberately bumped into Kakashi's Lightning Blade.

The other illustration is from a cartoon.

Rin Nohara bandaged Obito Uchiha.

The official description states, "Her clear eyes can see through the injuries [her companions] are concealing."

Kakashi is my love.

Obito Uchiha was a comrade.

Rin Nohara is a typical Konoha Ninja who would prioritize the safety of Konoha over love.

"Obito did this... That's too much..."

Rin Nohara's eyes were filled with tears.

Just as Kakashi was about to Obito Uchiha, he was stopped by Minato Namikaze.

If she were to truly face Obito Uchiha, Rin Nohara would be prepared to kill him.

After all, Obito Uchiha did wrong things and was a bad person.

Both Kakashi and Rin Nohara are Konoha Ninja, so they would make the same choice.

Seeing Rin Nohara's "indifferent" reaction.

Kushina only felt... a chill down her spine.

496. Won, yet not won, Tsunade the undercover Tsunade

The white light dissipated.

Hiruko revealed his form.

He swayed a few times before stopping.

In terms of resilience, he is clearly stronger than Neji.

"Though this is unexpected... you still cannot defeat me!"

Hiruko his arms, intending to continue his battle with Naruto Uzumaki for another three hundred rounds.

"Alright."

Akito's calm words rang out, interrupting the battle.

"It was Hiruko lost."

"Your Majesty, I..."

Hiruko didn't finish his sentence.

Naruto Uzumaki, who was standing in front of him, suddenly disappeared, turning into a cloud of white mist.

"!!"

Everyone was stunned.

What happened?

Soon, a stone was thrown out by the weasel.

The rock transformed into Naruto Uzumaki while it was in mid-air.

"How could this be...?!"

"This..."

Everyone looked on in astonishment.

Hiruko was completely stunned.

From beginning to end... Naruto Uzumaki only sent out a clone?!

The one standing here now is the real thing?!

Naruto Uzumaki uses Shadow Clone to defeat two opponents at once?

This time, it seems the Hiruko won't gain any advantage.

"That's right, I won."

Naruto Uzumaki raised his head, full of pride.

In this bet, our side has won!

Relying on the power of the Nine-Tails, the quality of each of Naruto Uzumaki's Shadow Clone was elevated to an unimaginable level.

Even if a Shadow Clone defeats a shadow, it wouldn't be surprising.

Release them.

The Akito said it casually.

The Slug Sage turned around and freed Tsunade from her restraints.

"Snort!"

Tsunade cracked her knuckles, gave a cold snort, and strode down the steps.

In the end, he stood with Naruto Uzumaki.

"Just you wait, we will definitely defeat you!"

Tsunade pointed at Akito with her nail polished finger and shouted.

"..."

The Akito's reaction was to curl the corners of his mouth into a meaningful smile.

It's that playful touch that's so appealing.

Amakawa Akito reminded Tsunade of the beatings she had received from Akito Amakawa.

Tsunade blushed instantly, her face flushed with a mixture of shame and anger.

"Hateful!"

Tsunade was so angry that her chest heaved repeatedly; she wished she could rush forward and kill Amakawa Akito!

"Tsunade."

Naruto Uzumaki stepped forward and extended his hand.

They only thought that Tsunade had suffered a lot.

Of course, even with Naruto Uzumaki's limited understanding, he wouldn't comprehend the extent of Tsunade's treatment.

Even though Naruto Uzumaki's bloodline is invincible.

Emotionally, she is completely clueless, as naive as a primary school student.

So.

Having zero experience in this area, he had no idea what Tsunade had become.

They wouldn't know.

Tsunade is still wearing Chakra restraints... and we'll even have to find a place to sneak them off later...
