Starting from Uchiha Obito

Chapter 22 A game within a game within a game

After weighing the remaining pupil power, he thought it would be no problem to use it a few times to transform it into nothingness, but using divine power would be a bit of a stretch.

"Forget it, no matter how important the Lightning Armor is, it's not that important. Let him go." Obito quickly came to Minato and watched them move away warily together with Minato.

"Huh!" Minato let out a long sigh, and suddenly he felt weak and almost sat on the ground, if his disciple hadn't been right next to him.

"Teacher Minato, are you okay?" Looking at Minato's appearance, Obito used his Sharingan to observe and found that there was very little chakra in his body. It should be caused by excessive chakra consumption, but Minato should not have any powerful ninjutsu that would deplete his chakra so quickly, right?

"It's okay. I used a technique that I wasn't very proficient in. It's a small price to pay to eliminate the aftereffects. It will be gone after a rest." Minato forced himself not to sit down and responded to Obito with a smile.

What kind of jutsu can Minato have? He probably hadn't even mastered the Rasengan at this time.

But seeing that Minato obviously wouldn't tell, Obito didn't ask. In the world of ninja, it is very rude to pry into other people's secret techniques, and it is normal to kill you if the relationship is not good enough.

"Teacher Minato, the direction they are retreating should be the direction where our troops are gathering. Can you notify them?" Obito looked in that direction a little worried. The Fourth Raikage would definitely not be able to stop him in a small scene prepared for the siege of a few hundred people. Instead, it might cause Konoha to suffer losses.

"I've already notified them, don't worry." Minato waved his hand perfunctorily.

Actually, Minato's acting is still very good. Obito didn't notice any flaws, but since the barrier was broken, Obito's Mangekyō has been looking at this side. It is absolutely impossible for Minato to make any small movements to notify others under his gaze. And before, Minato was in a besieged state where he could not use Flying Thunder God. With the Fourth Raikage around, Obito didn't believe that he would have any free time to notify others. Moreover, the barrier was so strong, what communication method could convey the message?

Although Obito was confused, he didn't ask any more questions. At this time, Kakashi and Rin rushed over from behind.

"Teacher Minato, Obito, are you guys okay?" Lin came to Minato and started to treat his wounds. Although Minato, who was besieged, did not die, he was not unscathed. It's just that the wounds were not big and did not affect his combat effectiveness.

"It's nothing, they are just minor injuries. We can't stay here for long. Lin, just treat the wounds. We have to go back immediately."

"Are we going back now? What about our mission?" Kakashi asked as he stood aside.

"The situation has changed. Let's abandon the mission and go." Namikaze Minato said as he led the way back. The captain had made the decision, and the others could only follow.

"what's the situation?"

Kakashi asked Obito as he jumped towards him on his way back.

"I don't know either. After I broke the barrier and came in, I saw Minato Sensei killing two Kumogakure, and then the enemy retreated. I don't know what happened." Obito was also confused.

"Really? Do you think you can just give up the mission like that, Obito?" Kakashi asked a little confused.

"As for the mission, complete it if you can, and forget it if you can't. Since the birth of the ninja world, no ninja has a 100% mission completion rate, not even the ninja god Senju Hashirama." Obito smiled indifferently. Of course he knew what Kakashi was asking, and he said this deliberately to put some eye drops on Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The group returned to the Konoha camp. Obito felt that the atmosphere in the camp was a bit heavy, and he didn't know the reason. He was the only Uchiha in the battlefield of the Land of Lightning, and there were only a few acquaintances who had just returned like him. He didn't know where to inquire about the situation for a while.

"You guys go back and rest first, I'll go report to the main tent." Namikaze Minato still gave orders gently, and after Obito and the other two left, his face immediately became solemn, and he walked towards Jiraiya.

"Teacher Jiraiya, this time during my mission..." After lifting the curtain of the big tent, Minato Namikaze saw that only Jiraiya was inside and directly told him about his experience.

Jiraiya listened quietly while he drew on a scroll with a pen in his hand.

"That's roughly what happened. To be honest, if Obito hadn't broken the barrier, I would have had a hard time escaping." Minato still feels a lingering fear as he recalls the situation at that time.

"What do you think of Uchiha Obito?" Jiraiya finished drawing, put away the scroll, looked up and asked Minato Namikaze.

"That kid, he gave me the same feeling as other Uchiha before, just an ordinary genius of the Uchiha clan. But this time he risked blindness to save me. I believe he is also the successor of the will of fire." It's no wonder that Minato Namikaze couldn't see Obito's true nature. The filter of life-saving grace was already very important.

"Well, you go down and have a rest first. I'll still need your help in tomorrow's situation." Jiraiya nodded without comment and gave orders with a serious look.

"is teacher."

After Minato Namikaze left, Jiraiya handed the scroll to the intelligence team to send back to Konoha, and at the same time began to summon the various persons in charge who remained in the camp.

When it got dark, Jiraiya completed his plans for the day and lay down to rest alone.

He still held a scroll in his hand, and even when he lay down to rest he still held the scroll tightly in his hand. His face was calm and solemn, but his eyes were gleaming with fire.

"Collaborating with the enemy to attack your own people on the battlefield is absolutely unforgivable no matter what the reason!" Suppressing the anger in his heart, Jiraiya couldn't fall asleep. He just relaxed his body and made himself in the best condition possible. After all, tomorrow would not be peaceful.

When the sun rose as usual the next day, Obito walked out of the tent and noticed that the atmosphere was wrong. Compared with the previous two days, the atmosphere here seemed more depressing. Smiles almost disappeared from everyone's face, including Minato Namikaze.

"Let's go. Today's incident is also related to you." Namikaze Minato only took Obito away, and did not take Kakashi who wanted to go with them. Some things are better known by fewer people.

Not long after walking, they arrived at Jiraiya's tent.

"Now that everyone is here, let's start." Looking at Minato Namikaze who came in, Jiraiya stood up and said.

The moment he finished speaking, several people including Jiraiya took action at the same time, each controlling several people in the tent.

"Jiraiya, what do you mean!" Although Danzo was surprised, he was not afraid at all. He believed that Jiraiya could not do anything to him, even though Jiraiya's hand was on the back of his neck and a sealing technique had been performed on him.

"Danzo Shimura, Naku Shimura, Tomoto Nakayama, and Kiichi Matsumoto, as the commander of the battlefield, I declare that you are guilty of treason. You will be arrested now. If you resist, you will be killed without mercy." Jiraiya's voice was filled with deep coldness, leaving no doubt in the others about Jiraiya's determination to kill.

"Kid, what qualifications do you have to judge me? I am an elder of Konoha and also a battlefield commander. In Konoha, only the Third Hokage is qualified to judge me! Do you have the authorization of the Hokage to arrest me? If not, you are the one who betrayed the village." I believe that among those whom Jiraiya is determined to kill, Danzo Shimura is not one of them.

Who is he? He is the elder of Konoha, the Root of Konoha who controls the Root and can share power with the Hokage, the close friend who has experienced life and death with the Third Hokage since childhood, and the elder who watched Jiraiya grow up. The three ninjas who have a high status in the eyes of others are just a group of juniors in his eyes. Tsunade is played around by him, Orochimaru is just a worker he chose, and Jiraiya didn't deal with him because he thought he was not dangerous before, but he could kill him in minutes if he wanted to.

"Shut up! This is all because of you. They should have been excellent ninjas in Konoha. If it weren't for you, would they have come to this point! If you dare to say another word, I will kill you immediately!" Seeing that Danzo was so ignorant of his own life and still pretending to be an elder, Jiraiya was furious. He grabbed his neck with force and lifted him up.

"you!"

Feeling the strength of Jiraiya's palm, Danzo was shocked but didn't dare to be stubborn at this time. He was too careless before and let Jiraiya control several people directly and seal them. It would be too unfair if he died like this. As long as he could see the Third Hokage, he believed that he would be fine.

Seeing that Danzo stopped talking, Jiraiya calmed down. Although he wanted to kill Danzo directly, his reason made him give up such an action. Not only because of the relationship between Danzo and the Third Hokage, but also because this was on the front line of the battlefield. Among the 3000 ninja troops of Konoha, more than 500 were from the Root. Based on his understanding of the Root, if he killed Danzo directly, it might really start a civil war. If the Cloud Village attacked at this time, it would be really bad.

"Watergate."

"arrive."

"Arrest all the above-mentioned ninjas according to the list. From this moment on, you will temporarily take over the front-line command of the Land of Lightning." Jiraiya threw out two scrolls, one was a list of names, and the other was a letter of appointment.

"Yes." After getting the scroll, Minato turned and left, taking Obito with him.

"Are you confused?" Minato said to Obito as he came to the big tent.

"It's okay. I'm just a little surprised that Master Jiraiya has such courage. After all, in terms of status, Danzo should be higher than him."

Obito basically understood it. It seems that the last mission was a setup. On the surface, Jiraiya launched a siege to retaliate against Kumogakure. Kumogakure got the intelligence and set up a setup within the setup with Danzo Shimura. Danzo wanted to kill Uchiha Obito, and Kumogakure wanted to kill Minato Namikaze as well, so they hit it off. Jiraiya's real purpose was to determine who was involved in Danzo's plan, or who betrayed Konoha. There should be different suspects getting different courses of action.

In short, Jiraiya identified the enemy and started to capture him. As for the Third Hokage, he was probably trying to find Danzo.

"You guessed it all?" Minato asked in surprise.

"Is it difficult to guess? After all, Danzo was targeting only me last time. Fortunately, I discovered something was wrong in advance and did not do as he arranged, otherwise I would have suffered the same treatment as you, Mr. Minato, yesterday." It's just that the Fourth Raikage is missing, but Obito didn't dare to say this.

"Since you already know, I won't explain it. Don't worry, Konoha will not let these traitors go. Come with me to catch them."

"Yes." The others didn't know that Shimura Danzo would never die. Obito didn't say this, but he was sure of this conjecture.
