Chapter 135: Confronting the Tailed Beast
......
Minato quickly found Shinichi.
From Shinichi's point of view, this was something that was expected. Whether it was recent events or his relationship with Minato, Minato was destined to come to him.
Others might not be able to detect the rumors about the "monster with the aura of despair", but Minato, who had been in contact with Shinichi for a long time, couldn't possibly not notice it at all.
"is it you?"
Unexpectedly, Minato didn't explain or explain, and just asked.
Zhen nodded.
"it's me."
Minato was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Let's find a place where no one is around to talk."
With that said, Minato put his hand on Shinichi's shoulder, and with a flash of golden light, the two of them disappeared.
What came next was Minato's tent.
"sit down."
Minato sat down cross-legged, and Shinichi sat down opposite him.
"what happened?"
Shinichi thought for a moment, organized his voice and replied.
"It's my sword. When I was being chased by One-Tail, it awakened and gave me short-term, extremely powerful power."
Minato nodded without any surprise.
"Awakening of the Blood Successor Limit? It's pretty much what I thought."
In Naruto, some blood successors will awaken. Once awakened, they will often bring extremely powerful power to the master. The most classic one is the advancement of the Sharingan. One magatama and three magatama are definitely not the same level. The three magatama and kaleidoscope are not on the same level.
"After awakening, can you temporarily have the ability to rival tailed beasts?"
Minato continued to ask.
Shinichi shook his head.
"No, after awakening, I am still not as powerful as the tailed beast. However, I can indeed compete with the tailed beast for a certain period of time, but as time goes by, I will definitely die."
Minato's eyes widened and he looked at Shinichi in disbelief.
In his original idea, Shinichi should have gained some magical abilities through the awakening of the Blood Successor Limit and escaped the pursuit of Ichibi, because in the process of escaping, he left a large amount of chakra with a sense of despair, and was far away. The intelligence base here mistakenly believed that they were fighting against Yiwei.
This is the fact that Minato guessed. Then, the first half was right. Shinichi was indeed able to survive because of the awakening of the blood successor boundary. However, he was able to compete with the tailed beast in a short period of time. Isn't this too outrageous? !
Before, when Minato asked "Can you temporarily have the ability to rival a tailed beast?", he had actually confirmed that Shinichi would deny it. The reason why he asked this was because he felt in his heart that there might still be a glimmer of possibility. Sex, so I asked.
but......
That tiny possibility actually came true? !
It's like buying a lottery ticket. When you buy it, you think you're going to win millions, but in fact, you know in your heart that it's normal if you don't win, and then suddenly you win.
Although I had anticipated this possibility, I still couldn't help but be shocked when it actually happened.
A chuunin, through the awakening of the Blood Succession Limit, suddenly became a being that could compete with the tailed beasts?
Minato really couldn't understand such a huge jump in strength. In his opinion, the only blood successor limit that could rival this kind of improvement was the rumored improvement of the three magatama advanced kaleidoscopes in the Uchiha clan. The magnitude.
Minato was silent for more than ten seconds before speaking again.
"Can you control the awakening of your blood inheritance boundary?"
Shinichi hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"It's possible, but my body can only barely bear the awakening of my blood inheritance limit. After awakening, once I exit the awakened state, I will completely lose the ability to move for a long time. At the same time, my chakra cannot To support the consumption of the awakened state, there must be a large supply of chakra. In the previous battle between me and Ichibi, I was able to maintain the awakened state by continuously absorbing chakra from its body."
It consumes a lot of chakra and places certain demands on the body...
Minato was thinking about the negative effects of the True One Blood Succeeding Limited Awakening. In his opinion, it is difficult to understand such a huge increase in strength without any side effects. There should be some larger side effects, so that it is more normal.
"Well, I understand a little bit about your matter. I can let it go for a while and talk about it later. Now, let's talk about the next thing."
Shinichi immediately began to tell what he knew. Minato said nothing, quietly listening to Shinichi's story.
Finally, Minato concluded.
"Well, Sunagakure first sent people to investigate, and then began to release the One-Tail, but the One-Tail was unwilling and not interested in becoming Sunagakure's weapon. It began to plan to escape the monitoring of the Third Kazekage and avoid being sealed. In the process of killing you, because I discovered your great strength after awakening, I proposed to join forces with you to attack the Third Kazekage and prepare to kill the opponent. You agreed, and you quickly took action, but the Third Kazekage was very decisive and started fighting. After a while, when he realized that there was no chance, he ran away immediately, is that right?"
"Ah."
Shinichi replied.
Minato spoke with a serious expression.
"Sunagakure shouldn't be in such a hurry to release the tailed beast. Even if he is really anxious to use the power of the tailed beast, he must at least find a way to control the tailed beast. It can be seen from Ichibi's attempt to escape that Sunagakure He released the tailed beast without preparing a way to control it. From this point of view, there is probably something going on inside Sunagakure. Well, since he was in a hurry to release the tailed beast, it couldn't be... Jinbashira The power is close to going berserk and has to be released?"
Incidents of Jinchuuriki going berserk are not uncommon in the ninja world. Minato quickly figured it out, and he continued.
"Then, it seems that in the next period of time, Sunagakure will be busy catching the escaped Ichibi and will not have time to participate in this ninja war. There is no need to mobilize more manpower from the village. At present, it seems Come, there are enough people here now. For a long time to come, the task here should be to monitor Sunagakure. The nine elite jounin I brought with me, plus Shinichi and you, we are enough to deal with possible situations. The next tailed beast attack to come and a few other surprises.”
Minato quickly set the pace for the Sunagakure battlefield for a long time to come.
Then, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The pressure is still there after all, not even small.
Before Minato was sent to the Sunagakure battlefield, the village's senior officials had clearly told him that he was here to resist Ichibi head-on.
Fighting a tailed beast head-on was something that few people in the entire ninja world dared to do in a jovial manner.
Even the Third Kazekage, the strongest Kazekage, is also afraid of the tailed beasts.
It was impossible for Minato to have no pressure. From the moment he set off, Minato was under tremendous pressure.
Once he faces the tailed beast and fails to win, the battlefield in the south of Konoha will quickly collapse, causing the entire Konoha to fall into a huge crisis.
However, what Minato didn't expect was that Shinichi would appear in this incident and solve the Ichibi incident on his own. This was really something no one could have imagined.
Smiling, Minato held out his thumb to Shinichi.
"You have become very powerful, Shinichi. Now you can protect me, haha."
Shinichi scratched his head in embarrassment and said nothing.
......
a few days later.
In Konoha Village, the Hokage's office was very quiet. Danzo and the Third Hokage looked at each other, and they could see the uncontrollable shock in each other's eyes.
Danzo spoke first.
"Awakening of the Blood Successor Limit, transforming from a chuunin into a being that can compete with tailed beasts, I have never heard of this kind of thing. If the person who sent this message is not Minato, I have already sent someone to take care of him. Let him deal with it."
Those who lie about military information will be punished, but given Minato's character, both the Third Hokage and Danzo know that it is impossible for the other party to lie about it.
After a moment of silence, Danzo continued to speak.
"Is that kid from the Uzumaki clan or the Uchiha clan? Because of the awakening of the Blood Successor Limit, his strength has been greatly improved. In my impression, only Uchiha's Sanmagatama has such a big change to Mangekyo."
Kaleidoscope is a legend to many people, but for senior officials such as Danzo and the Third Hokage, they naturally know that it is not a legend at all, but something that actually exists.
They had seen it with their own eyes.
Third Hokage opened the mouth and said.
"It's true that he belongs to the Uzumaki clan. Maybe his parents have some special physique."
Danzo thought for a moment and then spoke.
"Minato must be allowed to confirm whether the boy's awakening of the blood inheritance limit will be accompanied by some mind-changing power like Uchiha. We in Konoha don't want a madman."
He did not continue to delve into the question of what the true blood successor limit is, because in this world, the blood successor limit cannot be studied. There are so many kinds of blood successor limits that no one can study them clearly.
Danzo is now more concerned about whether Shinichi's blood inheritance limit will have a bad impact on him.
After all, before the blood successor limit of such a great increase in strength, there was only one Uchiha, and the Uchiha blood successor limit can only be obtained with severe pain, and severe pain often distorts a person's original nature. mind.
Danzo didn't want a similar situation to happen to Shinichi. He wasn't doing it for Shinichi's good, he just simply hated unstable factors.
Three Hokage shook his head.
"Minato also reported this to me. He spent a few days with Shinichi and didn't notice any changes in Shinichi."
Danzo frowned and said.
"Although it cannot be 100% accurate in a few days, but...well, it is enough to simply determine some things. In addition, it is during the war, so there is no need to test it too carefully. This matter Let’s leave things to plan after the war. For now, let’s consider that we have obtained a powerful force that can compete with the tailed beasts in a short period of time. This is still very good for Konoha.”
The Third Hokage stood up.
"Then let's do this first. Let Shinichi follow Minato to guard the Sunagakure battlefield in the south for half a year. If there is no movement from the Sunagakure side, then mobilize Shinichi to go to the Iwagakure battlefield to help with the attack. Although he is only a child, his strength is Having grown to such an extent, I cannot treat him as a child. After all, this is during a war..."
The Third Hokage had a look of guilt on his face. He thought that transferring Shinichi to the Iwagakure battlefield was very cruel for a person of Shinichi's age, but he had no choice. He was the Hokage, and for the safety of the village, he All available forces must be used.
Danzo snorted disdainfully.
"Since you have power, and since you are a Konoha ninja, it is natural to contribute to the village."
Danzo's views are obviously completely opposite to those of the Third Hokage.
