Konoha's main purpose in mounting this rescue was to prevent Jiraiya from dying at Uchiha Yuu's hands. Now that Uchiha Yuu had said that even the dead could be revived, with a living example right before him, Minato Namikaze's only goal was to save him. Even if he could not rescue him, he could at least ensure that Jiraiya would not die.
Thus, he patiently prepared to listen to what Uchiha Yuu had to say.
"Have you ever considered how our chakra came to exist?"
Uchiha Yuu's question stumped Minato Namikaze. The first thing that came to mind was the legendary Sage of Six Paths. Of course, that was merely a myth, and his tone became hesitant as he said,
"Legend says that the Sage of Six Paths founded the Ninja Sect, allowing chakra and ninjutsu to spread."
Though that was only the legendary version, there was currently no better explanation.
Yet when faced with Minato Namikaze's view, Uchiha Yuu gently shook his head in denial. Those Sharingan eyes seemed capable of seeing through everything in the world.
"You are not wrong that ninjutsu was passed down by the Sage of Six Paths. But chakra was not. Chakra was separated from the God Tree by the Sage of Six Paths' mother."
The Sage of Six Paths had a mother? And there was a God Tree?
Minato Namikaze had never heard of any of this. As Uchiha Yuu explained, confusion occasionally surfaced between his brows. Of course, the kunai in his hand remained ready to activate at any time.
He merely glanced at Minato Namikaze's covert movements and paid them no mind.
Judging from Minato Namikaze's current reaction, he had clearly become interested and believed that what Uchiha Yuu said was true. These secrets had been hidden beneath the Shinobi World.
