He initially trusted Uchiha Xin completely, believing him to be Konoha's variable and hope.
But seeing that the other party had actually revived the Ten-Tails, he felt a mix of emotions and didn't know what to think.
The Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze, was filled with anxiety.
He looked at Naruto lying motionless in the distance, worried that his son, who had lost the Nine-Tails, would be in grave danger, but he was unable to leave because he had to maintain the barrier.
With his hands in his pockets, Uchiha Xin strolled leisurely to the Four Red Yang Formation.
Faced with the Third Hokage's gaze, filled with doubt and questioning,
Uchiha Xin remained calm.
The situation has changed drastically.
He admitted it.
"I had no other choice but to do this. You don't need to ask any more questions; just wait and see what happens next."
Tobirama Senju snorted coldly.
"Utter nonsense!"
Tobirama cold sarcasm.
"You make betrayal sound noble, but you clearly want to destroy the Shinobi World! You have completely disrupted the Allied Shinobi Forces ' war plan!"
Uchiha Xin did not refute.
He ignored Tobirama's hostility and looked up at the Ten-Tails, which was frantically devouring the Nine-Tails Chakra of the Eight-Tails and Nine- Ten-Tails.
Uchiha Xin reluctantly took on the role of a villain, simply because the villains were too weak to carry the original plot.
"Bullshit! You damned Uchiha brat!"
Tobirama Senju Chakra surged wildly within him.
He clasped his hands together abruptly, as if about to use Water Release Ninjutsu to suppress the young man before him.
The Third Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi, gripped his Adamantine Staff tightly, a look of hesitation on his face.
Although he felt that Uchiha Xin's actions were suspicious, he did not dare to step forward rashly due to the strange situation.
Just as the tension was rising and Tobirama was about to make his move, at this critical Tobirama...
" Second! Please stop!"
A golden figure flashed out without warning.
He spread his arms wide, firmly blocking the path Tobirama Senju and Uchiha Xin.
It was none other than the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze!
Everyone in the room was stunned.
Tobirama Senju abruptly stopped his Hand Seals, his brow furrowed, and questioned him sharply.
" Fourth! Are you insane? Didn't you see he was handing the Nine-Tails over to the enemy?"
You're still going to protect this traitor from the Uchiha?!
Despite Tobirama's angry rebuke, Minato Namikaze did not back down in the slightest.
He took a deep breath, turned to look at Uchiha Xin, who had his hands in his pockets and an indifferent expression, his eyes resolute.
"I believe in Lord Xin!" Minato declared decisively, his voice echoing across the battlefield, surprising everyone present.
"You believe him?" Hashirama Senju scratched his head, his face full of astonishment. " Fourth, what's going on? He extracted the Nine-Tails!"
Minato, with a complicated expression, frankly stated. " Lord First, Second, Third."
To be honest, just now, while fighting that bizarre Six Paths Reaper, a sealed memory suddenly returned to my mind.
"Those are memories belonging to the parallel world of the Dragon Vein!"
Minato's voice trembled, clearly indicating that the memory had a profound impact on him.
"In that world, I already knew the true mastermind behind the Shinobi World."
The Sage of Six Paths, the Reaper —they were all puppets used by that person to manipulate the fate of the Shinobi World!
Everything Lord Xin has done is to fight against the ultimate conspiracy that has been hidden for thousands of years!
Upon hearing this, the First, Second, and Third Hokage were completely bewildered.
Parallel worlds? The Sage of Six Paths is the mastermind?
Tobirama frowned even deeper, feeling that Minato was talking nonsense.
Just then, Uchiha Xin spoke calmly.
"Not just Reaper."
Uchiha Xin's deep Tensei Rinnegan glanced at Minato.
His tone was so calm, as if he were recounting a trivial matter.
" The Great Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku, the White Snake Sage of Ryūchi Cave, and the Katsuyu Sage of Shikkotsu Forest."
The immortals of these Three Great Sage Lands are also puppets planted by the Sage of Six Paths.
"Just now, I casually killed all three of them."
boom!
This statement greatly surprised Minato.
Minato stared wide-eyed, utterly shocked.
He had practiced immortal Senjutsu on Mount Myōboku and knew how lofty the status of the Great Toad Sage was; he was a legendary being who had lived for thousands of years!
But now, Uchiha Xin casually claims that the three great sages were all puppets, and that he has already killed them all?!
"This... this is impossible..." Minato gasped, a chill running down his spine.
The other three Hokage were completely bewildered, unable to comprehend the earth-shattering secrets behind their conversation.
" Fourth! Explain yourself! What exactly is the Six Paths Puppet?" Hiruzen Sarutobi pressed for an explanation.
Minato opened his mouth, but didn't know where to begin.
The situation is far too complex, involving myths from a thousand years ago and the intersection of parallel worlds, making it impossible to explain.
He could only grit his teeth and say firmly, " Third, please forgive me for not being able to explain in detail."
But I swear on my life, we must unwaveringly trust Uchiha Xin!
At this point, Minato showed anxiety.
He looked at Naruto lying on the ground in the distance, his life hanging in the balance, and his voice was pleading.
" Lord Xin, I believe in your plan."
But Naruto... he's lost the Nine-Tails, his life force is rapidly draining away, he's going to die!
Uchiha Xin looked at Minato, whose face was full of worry, and said nothing.
He moved swiftly and appeared in front of Minato in an instant.
"Don't be nervous." Uchiha Xin reached out and patted Minato on the shoulder, offering a reassuring word.
Just as he patted her on the shoulder,
A pure, refined Chakra of the Nine-Tails, stripped of all its violent intent.
Following Uchiha Xin's palm, it was silently injected into Minato's body.
It was precisely transmitted to Naruto in the distance, protecting the last bit of life in Naruto's heart.
Minato sensed that Naruto's vital signs had stabilized, and his eyes welled up with tears of gratitude.
However, the next second...
Uchiha Xin's pair of azure Tensei Rinnegan suddenly erupted with powerful law energy.
"Rebirth and Reincarnation."
Buzz!
An invisible force of rules pierced through Minato's soul seal.
"Ugh!" Minato let out a muffled groan.
A massive, jet-black Chakra was forcibly extracted from Minato's body!
That was the other Yin Nine-Tails Minato had sealed inside him using the Reaper Death Seal!
Uchiha Xin held the Yang Nine-Tails in his left hand and the Yin Nine-Tails he had just drawn in his right.
He slammed his hands together!
boom!
Under the absolute suppression of the Tensei Rinnegan, the two halves of the Nine-Tails Chakra instantly and perfectly merged.
It transformed into a complete Nine-Tails power radiating a powerful aura!
"You bastard!" Seeing this, Tobirama Senju was enraged and instinctively wanted to use the Flying Thunder God Technique to steal it.
However, when he touched Uchiha Xin's completely expressionless Tensei Rinnegan,
A terrifying pressure emanating from the depths of his soul pinned him to the spot.
