Watching Obito Uchiha leave with Kamui, Namikaze Minato did not choose to pursue him. A contemplative look flashed through his eyes.
For some reason, in that brief exchange just now, he had felt a faint sense of familiarity from the other man, as if... he had seen him somewhere before!
And yet, no matter how he thought it over, he could not recall anyone in his memory who resembled him.
That left Namikaze Minato rather troubled.
In truth, after confirming through various sources, including Qian's report, that this unknown enemy was very likely a missing ninja of the Uchiha clan, he had gone through the village's records from top to bottom.
He had even secretly checked accounts with Uchiha Fugaku several times, trying to uncover the man's identity.
Unfortunately, even now, he had found nothing definite.

"And what is this strange sense of familiarity?"
Namikaze Minato simply could not make sense of it no matter how hard he tried.
If Qian knew of his troubles, he would surely say: even the wise are bound to miss something.
Clearly, Namikaze Minato had been blinded by a single leaf and had never imagined at all that this man was his former student.
