Minato Namikaze's suspicions

The group originally intended to take action.

But then someone suddenly arrived, and the gust of wind that swept up when he landed made several people stop in their tracks, their expressions changing as they looked at the newcomer.

There is only one person in Konoha who can keep up with that speed.

That was the legendary outstanding young ninja, Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage!

And a large group of clan ninjas followed closely behind.

With so many people with Minato Namikaze no longer had the same expression as Yang Xing before; his eyes now held a hint of coldness.

"Minato-sensei?"

Minato Namikaze's expression was more serious than Yang Xing had ever seen before. Compared to before, he looked at him with more solemnity, as if something had changed in Minato Namikaze's heart.

"Yang Xing, although I don't believe it either," Minato Namikaze said calmly, his brows furrowed, "There is one thing that makes me doubt it."

Yang Xing looked puzzled and cast a questioning glance his way.

Minato Namikaze calmly voiced the doubt in his eyes. "Danzo, the Third Tsuchikage, and the events before you became my disciple—there are many suspicious points. You are indeed not from the Uchiha Clan, but from then on... your strength has increased too quickly, and you have actually grown to your current level, where even the Tsuchikage is no match for you, in just a few short months?"

Yang Xing sighed, and facing Minato Namikaze's suspicious gaze, finally spoke the truth, "If I said someone was plotting against me, would Minato-sensei believe me?"

Who is that person?

"Madara Uchiha."

"An ancestor of the Uchiha Clan?" Minato Namikaze shook his head with a forced smile, clearly disbelieving. "Yang Xing, it's not that I don't believe you, but that person has been dead for many years. Even if there were some miracle, he couldn't possibly be alive, and such a miracle doesn't exist in this world."

"So, Minato-sensei, you don't believe me anymore?"

"Enough, Minato. We know he's your disciple and wouldn't dare make a move. You can hand him over to us." Choza Akimichi wasn't interested in this nonsense; his temper was notoriously bad. "We guarantee we'll bring this kid back."

Several people fell silent; a great battle seemed imminent.

And at this moment.

The distant mountain peaks looked towards this place, and a person, though desperately wanting to come, was unable to, his face unusually pale.

"Obito, this is the Konoha you wanted, and the place you want to go back to."

"Let me go!" Obito, his eyes bloodshot, glared at the person beside him, his face extremely ugly.

If it weren't for the Cursed Seal this guy had placed on his heart, he wouldn't have stood by so coldly. His own head was in danger, yet he couldn't help. Obito's emotions were very unstable right now.

"I can let you go, but what do you think you can do right now? What are you capable of doing?"

"But I can't just watch them attack my head like this." Obito were red, and his expression changed drastically. "Why is Minato-sensei like this too? Why is this happening?"

"These are people, the people of Konoha." Madara's words pierced Obito's heart. "The high-ranking members of Konoha."

"I don't believe it, I don't believe it, these guys are all idiots." Obito, clutching his head, was filled with pain. "Our leader did so much, so much for Konoha, why did it end like this?"

"So what? In some people's eyes, these things are less than dog shit. Everything in Konoha is just that disgusting."

"Don't insult Konoha."

"This isn't what I wanted to say, but even if I don't say it now, you should understand."

"Head!" Seeing Yang Xing surrounded by a group of people brought by the Fourth Hokage, Obito finally exploded.

The feeling of wanting to go but being unable to do so made Obito kneel down.

Yang Xing had saved him once, and he longed to repay that kindness. But now, the pain of not being able to repay it filled him with confusion. Moreover, the person who had saved him was being forced into such a predicament by his beloved Konoha.

Obito's heart has changed.

Because of the appalling state of Konoha, his heart began to undergo a tremendous change.

This change occurred in the eyes, causing the Three Sharingan Tomoe eyes to split open and blood to flow from them. In that instant, the Three Sharingan Tomoe evolved into the Mangekyō.

This caused Madara's expression to change, and his voice clearly carried a hint of wild joy.

"Hahaha, you're the real genius, a rare genius among the Uchiha Clan."

"No, I can't just watch! I can't let our leader be killed by these people! I have to help him! I have to repay our leader's kindness!" With his head raised and tears of blood streaming down his face, Obito rushed forward with such speed that even Madara was taken aback.

"Hey, stop right there! Aren't you afraid I'll detonate the talisman inside you? Are you out of your mind?" Seeing the other's reckless charge, Ban's expression changed. "That brat actually has such a big influence on this guy. Damn it, the plan is only one book away from completion. We can't let it fail because of that guy."

It's impossible for Yang Xing to encounter a crisis.

Minato Namikaze was indeed somewhat intimidating to him, but unfortunately, with his Three Sharingan Tomoe, he showed absolutely no fear.

Moreover, the previous kill by the Land of Earth ninjas had already given him an Evolution Fruit, plus a special achievement.

The Undefeated Person (unique achievement) increases the Ninjutsu: Taijutsu "Perfect Defense Technique" once a day, activated by hand seals, granting immunity to all Ninjutsu attacks, including Super S-rank, for 5 seconds.

Yes, right now no one can stop him or deal with him.

The reason Yang Xing didn't leave was because of Minato Namikaze's attitude towards him.

He truly hadn't expected that the only person who knew him wouldn't trust him.

It seems that the Fourth Hokage of Konoha is nothing more than this.

Glancing around, seeing that the group of clan Jonin were about to attack him, Yang Xing was prepared to leave immediately.

He really didn't want to come back after leaving this time. Konoha was dispensable to him. If all else failed, he would come back later with Rin Nohara and Anko and go somewhere else. With his strength, there was nothing in this world that he couldn't find a place to belong.

As for Hong, we have absolutely no connection now, and in the end, we'll just become strangers. It doesn't really matter anymore.

At least for now, Yang Xing doesn't want to see these people chasing after him.

Before he could even jump, several ninjas' Ninjutsu were already projected towards him.

"Multi-Size Technique."

"The Shadow Imitation Technique!"

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

Several people rushed forward, intending to capture this once-in-a-century genius of Konoha.

Unexpectedly, someone's sudden intervention caused a huge change in the situation.

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"
