Chapter 138: Talents from Madara Uchiha, They Come From the Future

The Third Hokage is definitely a master of changing faces.

Before that, when Madara Uchiha ravaged the Rock Village's main force, his inner delight was beyond words.

After all, Rock Village was in a standoff with Leaf Village, and no one knew whether they would truly go to war the next moment.

But when it was all over and they arrived on this land that could be called apocalyptic, his heart changed in an instant.

"Madara Uchiha could treat Rock Village like this; then what should be done the next time he does the same to Leaf Village?"

The question lingered in the Third Hokage's mind, he wrestled with it for a moment, and after considering Leaf Village's practical interests, he finally made a decision.

Rescue people—at least save these people, then demand money from Rock Village!

After the order was issued, all Leaf Village ninjas were stunned, but the next moment they seemed to have figured something out.

In such a dire situation, Rock Village can now basically be judged as having no combat capability.

The name Uchiha Jing is really familiar to the Third Hokage—damn, he's an old friend!

Unfortunately, this old friend died young, which makes him quite regretful.

Once this idea appeared, it immediately spread uncontrollably throughout the entire Leaf Village force.

Of course, there are also many survivors.

The Third Hokage shook his head, then curiously asked a question.

Although they had already created distance during the battle, that distance was far insufficient, and they still tended to cluster together.

"By the way, how is Da Ye Mu's situation?"

Nara Ruku was this time assigned to assist the Third Hokage in dealing with the war; he is not only adept at administration but also can demonstrate his value on the battlefield.

Although the current situation is basically that the entire Da Ye Mu family has been taken away, the Third Hokage still cannot feel any happiness.

He knows now is not the time to get tangled in other matters; the urgent priority is to handle the immediate trouble.

But once it's over, it's over, and that's also something to be glad about!

However, the more they tidy up, the more they feel panic.

"The Third Tsuchikage hasn't awakened yet, but I've already assigned the sealing squad to keep watch."

Although the previous horror and the current tragedy are still vivid, many Leaf Village ninjas have already shown excited expressions!

No one wants to die in war; even if they are willing to fight for Leaf Village, protecting their home is the same.

I actually hope that those of our Leaf Uchiha fought!

And now, even though all this looks so absurd, it's also so anticlimactic.

"Sir, what exactly happened this time? Did members of the Uchiha Clan join the fight?"

After the Third Hokage's order, even though some Leaf ninjas harbored deep hatred for these Rock Ninjas, they still had to honestly begin treating them.

In such a situation, the radiation of energy and the collapse of terrain are simply lethal to them!

Now this old friend has gotten up again and done such a thing, making it really hard for him to hold back.

I don't know how many were killed outright by the energy dispersion, and many unlucky souls were pushed into the abyss by the shockwave, or buried under rubble.

"Someone heard, one of the two sides in the battle mentioned a name—Uchiha Jing?"

But at that moment, Nara Ruku suddenly walked over and gave a slight bow to the Third Hokage.

Why the dead can get up and do evil, he couldn't figure out, but another thing made him even more uneasy and inexplicable.

"But why rescue them? Wouldn't it be better if they just died?"

"Sir."

But these people now look numb, as if they've lost their souls; even when Leaf ninjas come, they have no desire to fight.

This is all because of the battlefield's diversion to other areas; although they all look haggard, at least they survived.

One person reduced an entire ninja unit to this, morale shattered, hearts scattered; no matter how you look at it, it must be Madara Uchiha's doing.

Nara Ruku immediately spoke, the Third Tsuchikage's deterrent power is still strong, and besides that he now has a question.

The Third Hokage's heart is truly baffled; he constantly feels the world becoming more unfamiliar.

But now his mind is buzzing, those terrifying steps still echo in his head.

"The search work is indeed hard to complete, Rock Village's losses are too great, and our supply numbers are probably..."

"I understand, contact the rear to urgently mobilize some ninjas, and meanwhile we prepare to return to Leaf Village."

Although the Third Hokage's mind is filled with images of that giant destroying the heavens, he also knows now is not the time to get tangled in these things.

But after all, he is the smartest, and his speed of regaining composure is especially fast.

Now, their hearts have completely collapsed!

With so many corpses, and so many personnel and wounded, this forced the Third Hokage to order Leaf ninjas to temporarily garrison here, to find and treat as many as possible.

Fortunately, they learned a lot of information from the surviving Rock Ninjas, and they also found the yellow earth and even the comatose Da Ye Mu!

"Too terrifying."

The number of dead Rock Ninjas is too high; a force of thousands was almost instantly destroyed.

"What on earth is happening?"

Even their Third Tsuchikage is missing!

So, does this mean that the war in Grass Country hasn't even started, yet it's already basically over?

The Third Hokage silently took out his pipe, placed it in his mouth, but his complexion was not good.

Those three Leaf Uchiha are strong—so strong it's shocking; especially Yuzhi almost eliminated Orochimaru with a single move.

Moreover, three years ago, thanks to Ziraiye's intel and intel from Mist Village, they increased their investment in the Uchiha by an unknown amount.

But even Yuzhi, no matter how strong, the gap compared to the Madara Uchiha appearing today is absurdly large!

"In terms of Susanoo's size, it's not even the same level."

And the most crucial thing is that Yuzhi's eye problem still has no suitable solution.

The Mangekyou Sharingan may cause blindness; this is the conclusion given by the Second Hokage, but his teacher didn't say how to overcome it.

"Do we have to summon the teacher?"

Suddenly, the Third Hokage had a wildly rebellious idea: Obito's reincarnation is right in the Leaf Village.

But in the end he still shook his head, intending to trust the wisdom of later generations—after all, Tsunade has been researching it.

He always felt Tsunade was slacking off, but now he decided he absolutely could not let her keep slacking any longer!

"No."

Although thoughts churned in his mind, the Third Hokage still spoke seriously.

"These people are not Leaf ninjas; they might even be our enemies!"

"Enemies?"

Nara Shikaku, even if he tried to stay calm upon hearing this, his complexion turned somewhat sour.

"That's really bad news. So, is there anyone who can deal with them?"

"Perhaps. As members of the Uchiha Clan, Yuzhi and the other two might be fine, and as a descendant of the First Hokage, Tsunade might have a chance."

The Third Hokage gave a wry smile; he himself didn't know how to answer the question.

Back then, the only one who could handle Madara Uchiha was the First Hokage alone!

Now that the First Hokage is gone, can Yuzhi, as a kin of Madara, be up to the task?

"Forget it, I don't want to think about this. The war in the Cloud Village hasn't ended, and they probably won't return quickly after leaving."

The Third Hokage shook his head, then stood up.

"First, let's resolve the war, and then we can think carefully about how to deal with these troubles."

To be honest, the Third Hokage's mind was a bit chaotic, but that's normal; anyone who encounters such terrifying events would have both eyes go black.

Moreover, considering how recklessly these people act yet are so powerful, he would be extremely flustered.

However, a strange idea suddenly popped into his mind.

"If Yuzhi and the other two faced such a situation, how would they react?"

——

【Side Quest: Defeat Rock Village and the Akatsuki Organization, Protect the Leaf Village's Glory – Completed】

【Calculating Rewards】

Leaf Village, in Yuzhi's home.

When space warped for a moment, the instant the three silhouettes landed, the system in Yuzhi's mind quietly refreshed!

For the rewards of such a side quest, Yuzhi has always maintained great interest.

Although the rewards are sometimes good and sometimes bad, occasionally what he receives is of no use to him at all.

In the three years when he had little time to act, he had already become accustomed to it.

But this time the situation was clearly different; he was about to face an entire Akatsuki Organization, and that guy Oonoki!

Although the Akatsuki Organization was scattered, anyone counted in this battle fell within his capacity to acquire.

"But what else about these people is worth looking forward to?"

Yuzhi suddenly had a question in his mind, but before he could think further, Shisui abruptly produced a scroll.

"Senior, I forgot earlier; here, this is for you."

"Hm?"

While Yuzhi was still thinking about his reward, when he saw what Shisui handed over, he was startled for a moment, then asked curiously.

"What is this thing?"

"It's that lunatic's arm."

Shisui stared seriously at Yuzhi and Hikari, both of them frozen for a moment, then they couldn't help but glance at each other.

Obito that guy, how did his arm get broken again?

Which number time is this?

Yuzhi felt as if he had discovered a new continent; every time he fought Obito, they seemed to always manage to break that guy's arm.

Hikari as well, Kakashi and Minato too, all have done this; Yuzhi himself doesn't even know how many times he has broken that guy's arm.

Now, Shisui is also joining this huge army?

"In the future, if my avatar meets Obito, should we continue this excellent glorious tradition—break his arm each time we see him?"

Yuzhi felt a bit uneasy, and as he looked at the arm, he was at a loss, since they seemed to have no use for it now.

"Senior, you could give it to Lady Tsunade; after all, isn't she conducting research?"

Shisui didn't mind; he smiled and said a line.

"Later, just find any excuse and say you encountered it again; after all, no one will investigate, and nothing can be proven."

I have to admit, Shisui has indeed grown; his thoughts have become quite twisted.

Yuzhi merely smiled and then nodded; the matter of that Obito kid is indeed dead without evidence.

His arm has been broken countless times; when someone finds it and takes it for research, he has nothing to say, and more importantly, the Leaf Village won't investigate.

Would it be possible to ask Obito: when did your arm break?

Obviously this cannot happen; the space Yuzhi manipulates is not ordinary.

"Sure, I think we can start using Wood Release, and that should gradually come to light; after all, if our avatars can, not being able to would be too embarrassing."

"Tch, Wood Release is just that; my future Fire Release won't be scared."

Hikari, seeing Yuzhi's high regard for Wood Release, shrugged indifferently beside him.

She never lived through the era of Senju Clan ZhuZhang, and now she herself wields Wood Release; she feels that while Wood Release is powerful, it's just so-so.

To truly deal with them, there's Susanoo, Amaterasu, and later Fire Release; she doesn't find it particularly frightening.

"Alright, I know you're impressive."

Yuzhi reached out and patted Hikari's little head, then asked.

"Are you tired, after this battle?"

"I don't feel anything; all the strong enemies are on your side."

Hikari glanced at Yuzhi, then helplessly opened his mouth.

"Don't touch my head; ZhiShui is watching from the side."

"Are you still worried about not growing tall?"

Yuzhi teased casually, and indeed stopped patting Hikari's head, though he did enjoy doing it.

"Now the Rock Village issue is solved, so what do you plan to do about Cloud Village?"

Hikari was too lazy to argue with Yuzhi; she isn't lacking height, and she even feels she might be too tall.

At eighteen, Hikari's development is excellent; besides a good figure, she stands close to 1.7 meters.

That's rather tall for a girl, and the height makes her legs look especially long, which excites a certain pervert even more.

Turning toward the sofa, Hikari sat down and curiously asked.

"Rock Village made such a big move this time; if you don't show enough ability in Cloud Village, you won't achieve the effect you want, right?"

"Hmm, indeed."

Yuzhi also walked over, sat beside her, thought for a moment, then spoke.

"Although it's a bit unexpected, overall, based on my understanding of Madara Uchiha, he would act like this at that point, so I have no choice."

"You've actually wanted to do this for a while, haven't you?"

Hikari and ZhiShui, who had just sat opposite them, twitched at the corners of their mouths; they really didn't trust Yuzhi's words.

They felt Yuzhi always finds a scapegoat for any misdeed; the dragon vein robbery is said to be the mysterious person's (Obito's) fault.

Stealing Four-Tails chakra, going to Mist Village, and now this time—aren't they all just blaming a bunch of dead people?

Yet Hikari doesn't mind blaming a group of "juniors"; it's just that these are debts she owes.

Only ZhiShui could barely smile; Yuzhi could let it go, after all Madara Uchiha isn't a good person, but he's using his grandfather's name.

"In Cloud Village we'll act normally, without using dragon veins or tailed‑beast chakra; that way we can also see where our limits lie."

Yuzhi had no idea how his little brother and his fiancée were arranging things in their minds, and he laughed as he continued.

"Letting 'others' hog the spotlight isn't good; now it's our turn.

And for the road ahead, we should also demonstrate our own value.

We need a chance to prepare, to fulfill the dreams in our hearts.

At least we must let others know how strong we are; only then can you do what you're capable of."

"In short, aside from Wood Release, Melt Release, tailed beasts and celestial techniques being prohibited, we may use any other power at will?"

Hikari touched her chin and nodded.

"That will lower the strength quite a bit, but it doesn't matter; it'll actually save us trouble later."

"Indeed it saves a lot of trouble; that's why we both study knowledge and forge ourselves."

Yuzhi nodded and let out a faint sigh.

"Studying knowledge lets them reason with others properly.

And forging ourselves to become stronger is so that when we encounter a bunch of dimwits, we can make them honestly listen to our reasoning.

Look at the muscle men of Cloud Village—doesn't that fit?"

"This…."

Hikari nodded at the remark, while ZhiShui wore an embarrassed expression; describing Cloud Village that way sounds off, doesn't it?

Yet ZhiShui completely agreed with Yuzhi's viewpoint.

Indeed, the ninja world isn't a place where everyone will listen to your reasoning, especially those who think a bit of power lets them act recklessly.

Like Cloud Village now, to make them listen you need enough strength to keep them in check!

【Statistics Complete】

While Yuzhi, Hikari, and ZhiShui were chatting, the system in Yuzhi's mind refreshed again, catching his attention.

"Is it coming? I hope it's something good."

Yuzhi was very curious about what he might obtain this time.

He has the talent of Great Wild Wood Dust Release, and Obito has been so exploited by him that he's a bit bald; there seems to be nothing else worth looking forward to from others.

Apart from Orochimaru and Nagato,

Orochimaru's abilities are extremely bizarre; you never know what good you can extract from him.

And Nagato.

Although Yuzhi directly used White Absolute Cells, that means he obtained the ability from Senju Hashirama.

Moreover, he has been continuously engraving these powers into himself over the years using the 'genetic modification technique' he got from Orochimaru.

His progress isn't slow; by any measure he's already past half way!

But Nagato's talent is truly outrageous; Yuzhi always feels this guy's limits are incomprehensible.

In the original story, when Naruto defeated him with words, he could still revive tens of thousands of dead at once.

That shows one thing: Nagato can keep fighting, but 'different heavenly mouth' is even stronger!

Reviving the dead, even just awakening them, must follow the 'necessary rules'.

The self‑life reincarnation Yuzhi has been observing, if you ignore bug‑related factors, is also a life‑for‑life resurrection method.

Even Impure World Reincarnation requires a life exchange.

Yet Nagato can push Leaf Village flat, seal Naruto with Earth Explosion Heaven Star, and use various eye techniques to lock time before acting.

The most fatal thing is that his eyes aren't even his own; any other person would already be unable to endure it.

But he somehow held on, and before dying he still used that massive Rinnegan innate power.

"In other words, if Naruto hadn't convinced Nagato, then nine or ten times out of ten Naruto wouldn't have been able to defeat Nagato."

Of course, that's hard to say.

After all, Nagato is a cripple; sufficient mobility could still kill this guy.

But after the Edo Tensei, Nagato alone wielded all of the Rinnegan's abilities, seemingly fully displaying his talent and limits.

You should know that at that time Naruto had undergone special training on Turtle Island, and had 'reconciled' the Nine‑Tails within his body.

He could fully draw the Nine‑Tails' bijuu chakra, possessed sage techniques, and had a perfect jinchuriki, Killer Bee, by his side.

As a result, the two were utterly unmotivated to fight, and the mechanically blunt Nagato easily crushed them.

Yuzhi this time could easily hammer him; aside from not having reached the original's level, only a Heavenly Dao clone would truly trouble Yuzhi.

If this guy were free to act, and the Rinnegan underwent enough training to use its powers with its true body.

"Maybe I'm being cautious, but if we actually face that state, dealing with it is indeed not easy."

Yuzhi has always been cautious, especially toward those absurdly powerful characters from the original, and must maintain sufficient respect.

After all, ninjas are like race cars; a single crash can dismantle them, and this is no joke.

Even though Yuzhi is now reinforcing himself, even someone as strong as Madara Uchiha was directly annihilated by Black Zetsu's Yin‑Yang Release.

"Moreover, if I recall correctly, the ninja world still has a living Otsutsuki."

Although he never met one, he seems to remember that somewhere in the ninja world there exists some kind of Shell Organization.

He has never liked Boruto; while he understands it's to shape the next protagonist, forcibly banning people from his memory made it hard to accept.

Moreover, he doesn't grasp the logic of those in Boruto, and prefers the people in Naruto.

"Forget it, why dwell on that? Look at the reward this time."

Thinking to himself, Yuzhi focused his attention on the system, and then he was stunned.

【Side Quest Completed: Defeat Rock Village and Akatsuki Organization, Guard the Glory of Leaf Village – Completed】

【Reward Obtained: Yin‑Yang Release Talent (Madara Uchiha)】

——

Today became a day in Leaf Village that was both heavy and incredibly joyous.

For ordinary people, that's just sheer joy.

They don't know Madara Uchiha exists; they only know that whatever happened, the war against Rock Village seems over.

For everyone it's indeed a good outcome, as it reduces unknown amounts of loss.

Because of this, at least many ninjas' lives were saved!

But for Leaf Village's high command, this matter is exceedingly heavy.

Because the man called 'Madara Uchiha' has returned like lightning!

They brazenly attacked the Rock Village camp, in front of the Third Hokage, crushing the morale of thousands of Rock Ninja with countless casualties.

Although no one has seen that abyss‑like canyon cleaved by a single Susanoo slash.

But merely hearing the Third Hokage describe that terrifying power is enough to send chills down one's spine!

"Never imagined it would end up like this."

In the Hokage's office, Minato Namikaze looked at the Third Hokage and Roku, and anxiously rubbed his head.

Kushina, however, wore a solemn expression; she could hardly believe what she heard, as she had never realized something.

Yuzhi, Hikari, and Shisui sat nearby, the three silent as if the matter didn't concern them.

"My grandfather has been fighting such monsters all along, and he actually won?"

Her understanding of her grandfather was shallow; in her memory he was a kind man who liked taking her to casinos.

Although she always lost at mahjong.

And her grandmother Uzumaki Mizuto never mentioned it, nor did her teachers, the Third Hokage and others, so she formed a mistaken notion.

"Rizan, Roku, can you confirm?"

Koharu and Mizuto Monen were also a bit restless; both had witnessed Madara Uchiha's strength.

Their faces now were as grim as possible; earlier Ziraiye mentioned they were nervous but unconfirmed, always 'suspected'.

Now the Third Hokage saw it with his own eyes, so it's confirmed!

"Except Susanoo's color is off, everything else matches, and you could just ask Ōno Ki."

The Third Hokage, pipe in mouth, helplessly turned to Ōno Ki, who had just awakened and was being escorted back to Leaf Village.

He had fought Madara Uchiha himself, twice, which is why he was brought to this meeting.

But his expression was equally grim; inexplicably beaten by Madara Uchiha, then the Leaf Village's old monkey took advantage, which would upset anyone.

Moreover, his whole body is sealed with chakra tags; his already weak back can't move, and his face looks downright foul.

"Hmph, you who fled Leaf Village yourself aren't aware?"

But hearing the question, he didn't put on airs; he could ignore other matters, but not Madara Uchiha.

"What can be confirmed is that old bastard Madara Uchiha, though I don't know why he's wearing a mask, Susanoo's color is completely different.

But that demeanor, that tone, that extreme wickedness, even if turned to ash I would still recognize him!"

Not to mention that power; who in the ninja world could replicate it?

So, Madara Uchiha really is like that?

Shisui and Hikari turned to look at Yuzhi; being summoned to a meeting early in the morning left Yuzhi looking irritated.

Shisui was indifferent, while Hikari felt relieved that the meeting happened; otherwise the guy would have caused trouble again.

Heaven knows this guy, despite his high combat strength, still has energy to mess around early this morning.

A kiss would be fine; after all she's accustomed to it, but this pervert guy actually still wants to go all the way down?

If it weren't for this meeting, Hikari would have lost her composure!

However, now is not the time to think about Yuzhi's "perverted past"; she's thinking more about Madara Uchiha.

It seems that junior is rather interesting, huh.

And Da Nuo Mu's words also made her and Zhi Shui laugh; what does "who can still be revived" mean?

"Truly, it's Madara Uchiha."

Zhuanqing Xiaochun was a little stunned, and Shui Tuo Men Yan fell silent; a terrifying guy like that would make anyone lose composure.

"Not only him, Uchiha Izuna also appeared, and besides that there is another person."

The Third Generation, with a pipe in his mouth, inhaled clouds and exhaled mist before shaking his head and saying.

"It seems to be our old friend, Uchiha Kagami."

"What?"

"Kagami?"

This sentence made the two advisors wonder if they had misheard, and they shouted in disbelief.

"How could that be? How could Kagami be with Madara Uchiha? They're not even from the same path!"

"Sorry, grandfather."

Now it's Zhi Shui's turn to hang his head; he feels there's nothing he can do except apologize to his grandfather.

"Zhi Shui, what's your take?"

The Third Generation forced a wry smile, then looked at the downcast Zhi Shui, asking helplessly.

In his view, Zhi Shui must be full of disbelief now.

"Third Generation lord, I—"

Zhi Shui tried to appear shocked and stunned, but the awkwardness in his eyes couldn't be hidden.

Yet that awkwardness seemed incredulous to the Third Generation and the others.

"I don't know either; my knowledge of my grandfather is shallow, I mostly just hear his stories, so—"

"Sorry, I overlooked it."

The Third Generation nodded helplessly, admitting he had indeed overlooked this matter a bit.

When Kagami died, Zhi Shui hadn't even been born!

He decided that next time, if possible, he'll avoid Madara Uchiha and Uchiha Izuna, and meet Uchiha Kagami alone.

So he simply turned his gaze to Yuzhi, thought for a moment, then said.

"Yuzhi, I wonder what your view on them is."

"I think there are some issues."

Although Yuzhi was a bit displeased, he still composed himself and spoke.

"First, they're all dead people; why they appear in this world is puzzling.

Also, the color of Susanoo cannot change; once activated, its color is fixed.

My Susanoo is black, Ying is red, Zhi Shui is green, and Madara Uchiha's is blue.

Yet according to your accounts, that guy's color is purple, which I find odd."

Shui Men frowned, then asked immediately, "Can Susanoo's color really not be changed?"

"Indeed it cannot," Yuzhi nodded seriously, reinforcing the Thought Steel Seal: "No matter what you do, the result is the same; Susanoo's tolerance is quite strong."

"Kid, you mean I saw it wrong?" Da Nuo Mu, irritated, said beside him, "When I was young I already saw Madara Uchiha, you—"

"But you still lost, what's the point of saying that." Yet Yuzhi gave him no respect and cut him off outright.

The remark instantly infuriated Da Nuo Mu; if his chakra weren't sealed, he would have stood up to reprimand the kid.

Especially, in his eyes this kid bears Madara Uchiha's shadow!

"What you said holds little value; do you have any other information?"

Yuzhi, too lazy to bother, adopted a lofty posture and spoke slowly.

"As the Uchiha Clan Leader, perhaps I can deduce something."

"Other information?"

Da Nuo Mu raised an eyebrow, suddenly recalling something, then said.

"It seems he knows more about some ninja I hired; he mentioned things that appear to involve the future."

Da Nuo Mu hadn't really thought about these at first, but now, reflecting on Madara Uchiha's demeanor and what he said to Orochimaru…

This made him realize there might be unknown matters hidden here, right?

He has no intention of revealing Orochimaru's intel; not only Orochimaru, he won't disclose anything about the Akatsuki Organization either!

The organization that contained Orochimaru might clash with Leaf Village in the future; he has no reason to feed Leaf Village information.

"The future?"

Yuzhi raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised that Da Nuo Mu was so adept.

And Shui Men also reacted now; he suddenly stood up and asked.

"Are you sure what you're saying, Tsuchikage?"

"Of course I'm sure. I won't tell you who he's speaking with; that's Rock Village intel, but—"

Da Nuo Mu also craned his neck; despite a sore back, he refused to bow.

"Their conversation indeed touched on future fragments; though that guy said little, that's the fact!"

"Could it be a Dragon Vein?"

Yuzhi spoke in time, adopting a puzzled expression as he said.

"I think I've heard some rumors, but I've forgotten exactly where—they seemed to be spoken by the deceased elders of the clan."

"Powerful chakra can disturb time and space, causing people from different times—or even different worlds—to leave their current surroundings and go to another world."

"Madara Uchiha's Susanoo has a different color, which already shows he is not a person of this world, at least not the Madara Uchiha we remember."

"But Da Ye, the Tsuchikage is so certain—so can we assume he comes from another world, and from a future point in time?"

"Yuzhi's words silenced everyone present; we all know the dragon vein was stolen by that madman."

"Minato even went to cut off that guy's hand."

"They aren't quite sure what the consequences of the dragon vein are, but now each of them looks at Minato."

"It was Minato who dealt with this back then!"

"Don't look at me; the memory has been sealed, and I deliberately sealed away the sealing method and the unsealing method, forgetting them."

"Minato gave a wry smile; he is now powerless."

"The seal has been in place for a long time now, so even if we force it open, there may be little of value left."

"The brain automatically deletes some memories; there's nothing that can be done, especially since Minato also sealed away some memories."

"As time passes, those memories may already be incomplete, and forcing an unseal could damage the brain!"

"The Third Generation's face darkened, and for a moment he didn't know what to say."

"The others stared at Minato speechlessly; they hadn't expected the Fourth Generation to do such a thing."

"Perhaps we truly have encountered something from the future."

"Yuzhi found this an appropriate opening; he stood up and began seriously spouting nonsense."

"According to Senior Minato's logic, it probably really involves future events, which is why he sealed the memories."

"Although I also think this is foolish—destiny is in our own hands—I have no right to criticize."

"However, it now seems we can indeed verify something: this Madara Uchiha may truly come from another world in the future."

"Otherwise, many things wouldn't make sense; at least why he is still alive cannot be explained."

"Yuzhi's words resonated with everyone; indeed, if he weren't from another world, many things would be hard to explain."

"Whether it's why this guy is alive, the color of his Susanoo, or the occasional chakra rain that 'takes them away.'"

"Looking at it now, it does seem they truly are from another world!"

"Still, as always, they can spin ghost stories."

"Hikari, seeing Yuzhi beside him, couldn't help but make a snide comment in his mind, while Zhishui's face was full of embarrassment; he hadn't expected such an explanation."

"In that case, their remaining time in this world shouldn't be long."

"After an unknown amount of time, the Third Generation glanced at Minato and then spoke slowly."

"Now that they're gone, we don't know how long until they return; we still have time to prepare."

"So far it looks that way; the last appearance was three years ago, and even when they appear frequently there are considerable gaps."

"Minato said awkwardly, having suddenly realized that sealing the memories also sealed the unsealing method, which was certainly not a good choice."

"So the pressing priority now is still Cloud Village."

"Yuzhi followed up, rambling for half a day and leading everyone astray; he is now overjoyed."

"Then now, he should also strive for his other mission!"

"He truly didn't expect that, when he opened a blind box he didn't get Nagato's talent, but instead got Madara Uchiha's talent."

"This left him stunned for a while, then he wondered if it was caused by the power of the Rinnegan."

"But regardless of which, this time the talent he obtained is definitely the one he looks forward to most!"

"Yin‑Yang Release is not merely Shadow Release and Yang Release, but the ultimate power after the two are combined."

"The strength of this power is unimaginable, and in the original work very few have mastered it."

"And each of them has at least reached—or once reached—the Six Paths level!"

"Yuzhi never imagined he could pull such a blind box; it was this talent that made him overly excited."

"He spent the whole early morning clinging to Hikari, only to be pulled away for a meeting."

"Anyway, now that he has the talent he can take his time to experiment, but there is still one unresolved matter: Cloud Village."

"He has already unleashed Madara Uchiha's power, so now it's his own turn!"

"'Rock Village has already been defeated, so it's Cloud Village's turn.'"

"Yuzhi calmly spoke, ignoring Da Ye's roar: 'I'm not the one who lost to you,' and he continued."

"'While mobilizing the troops, this time I'll go up myself to take a look.'"

"Having said that, he paused briefly, then spoke earnestly."

"'What he can achieve, I also want to see if I can achieve!'"
