Chapter 228

~4 min read 698 words

His father was actually the Fourth Hokage.

This sudden news left him unsure how to respond!

"Damn it!"

Yamato and the others' expressions changed drastically.

They hadn't expected Obito to actually reveal his origins to Naruto—this was one of Konoha's highest secrets.

"Move!!!"

The Anbu knew they couldn't wait any longer and rushed forward immediately.

Although they didn't know Obito's purpose, as long as they stopped him, that was the right thing to do.

"Kamui!"

Obito's expression didn't change as he directly phased his body.

In an instant, all of the Anbu's attacks passed right through his body.

"Damn it, what's going on?!"

Kakashi and the others stared at this scene in shock, utterly horrified.

But Obito paid them no attention and continued to speak:

"The Fourth Hokage sacrificed himself to save the village, but what kind of treatment did you receive as the son of the hero, the Fourth Hokage?"

"You should have been blazing brilliantly, the center of everyone's protection, receiving the best treatment!"

"Not only did no one look after you, you were instead spat on, feared, and isolated by the people of the village!"

"The ninjutsu and inheritance left behind by your parents were all stripped away!"

"Your parents were treated like garbage, discarded by Konoha without a second thought once they had no more value!"

"Naruto, aren't you angry?!"

Obito's voice made Naruto's breathing quicken and his eyes turn crimson.

Not angry?!

Angry!!

He was the son of the hero Fourth Hokage, yet he was treated like the son of a traitor!

This isn't fair!

This is really unfair!!

The fury in Naruto's heart was ignited!

The cracks in the Nine-Tails' seal widened once again.

Within his body, in the darkness of the seal, a sliver of light finally appeared.

The Nine-Tails awoke from its slumber, sensed Naruto's rage, and immediately let out a savage grin.

"Be angry, hate, brat, and then borrow my power to take revenge!"

The Nine-Tails began madly slamming against the seal, trying to make the cracks even bigger.

"Quickly stop him!"

"We can't let him keep talking!"

Kakashi and the others' faces changed drastically. Setting aside their shock at Obito's strangeness, they immediately tried to evacuate with Naruto.

It was obvious Obito was trying to enrage Naruto and make the Nine-Tails rampage again!

But how could Obito possibly let them succeed? He stepped ahead and arrived at Naruto's side, pressing a kunai against Naruto's neck, and said in a low voice to Kakashi and the others:

"Don't come any closer, or I'll kill Naruto!"

Kakashi and the others immediately stopped in their tracks, glaring at him furiously and roaring: "Bastard, he's Minato-sensei's child!"

Obito's expression shifted slightly, but he quickly regained his coldness. He bent down like a ghost and whispered into Naruto's ear:

"Do you really think the Third Hokage was actually looking after you?"

"He was just using you!"

"It was he who exposed your identity as the monster jinchūriki, which is why everyone else transferred their hatred for the Nine-Tails onto you!"

(to get a good one)

"You may not know this yet, but the tailed beast inside you, the Nine-Tails, once ravaged Konoha a few years ago, causing countless deaths!"

"It was your father, the Fourth Hokage, who sacrificed himself to seal the Nine-Tails inside you!"

"The people of Konoha hate the Nine-Tails immensely, but they also fear it, so they could only vent that hatred onto you, the son of the Fourth Hokage who didn't dare to fight back!"

"Speaking of the Third Hokage, when everyone else began to isolate you, he deliberately appeared to look after you, to talk with you, and a few small favors were enough to make you grateful!"

"This way, he became the only person you could trust!"

"But his real purpose was to brainwash you, to control you, to control the Nine-Tails inside you!"

Naruto's face turned deathly pale.

For him now, the Third Hokage was the only light in his life.

But Obito's words made the towering, majestic image of the Third Hokage in his heart collapse.

He shook his head frantically, shouting loudly:

"Impossible! Grandpa Hokage acknowledged me—he's not what you say he is!" Claw.
