Chapter 626: Killing Intent
Seeing the Third Hokage walk over, the Konoha ninja present all silently breathed a sigh of relief!
As for the Uchiha clansmen, it was as if they had seen a life-saving straw; they collectively ran toward the Third Hokage!
Although the relationship between the Uchiha and Konoha was tense at this time, they believed that Sarutobi Hiruzen, as the Third Hokage, would absolutely not stand by and watch them die...
"Do you really think he can save you?"
Unfortunately, what they didn't know was that Uchiha Obito hadn't paid any attention to Sarutobi Hiruzen at all.
Seeing the Uchiha people gathering together, Obito not only didn't stop, but instead accelerated his pace of attack.
"I told you, stop!!!"
Seeing that Uchiha Obito was ignoring him entirely, a flash of anger crossed Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.
He stepped forward quickly, wanting to use force to stop Uchiha Obito.
In truth, Sarutobi Hiruzen was in a bit of a dilemma at this moment.
If he allowed so many Uchiha to be injured right under his nose, it would inevitably intensify the Uchiha's dissatisfaction with him.
Furthermore, Uchiha Obito's act of ignoring him truly made him quite irritated!
Unfortunately, he had somewhat overestimated his own strength.
Just as he reached out his hand, wanting to grab Uchiha Obito, his hand suddenly passed right through Obito's body.
"You have a death wish!"
The bizarre space ninjutsu left Sarutobi Hiruzen stunned!
And at this moment, Uchiha Obito suddenly shifted his attention from the Uchiha clansmen to him.
"!!!!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen realized what was happening!
Just as he regained his senses and prepared to strike again, his upper body suddenly felt a powerful spatial pressure!
The immense spatial pressure made him unable to move!
Sarutobi Hiruzen could only stare straight ahead at Uchiha Obito!
At this moment, he suddenly discovered that Uchiha Obito's eyes had unknowingly transformed into the Mangekyo Sharingan.
"Oh no!!"
Seeing this scene, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately felt a massive crisis.
After cursing under his breath, he began to struggle with all his might.
However, no matter how hard he tried, the spatial binding did not weaken in the slightest.
On the contrary, as time passed, he felt as though his body was about to be crushed!
"What are you doing!?"
"Quick, let Lord Sarutobi go!"
At this time, the Konoha ninja also realized something was wrong.
They had the heart to rescue him.
But no matter how they attacked, their strikes were always passed through by Obito.
"Stop, Obito, do you want to kill the Third Hokage?"
"I'm telling you, if anything happens to the Third Hokage, even Lord Minato won't be able to protect you!"
"Stop quickly! You can't kill the Third Hokage. Do you want to see Konoha and the Uchiha go to war?"
"I beg you, please stop!"
Seeing their attacks rendered ineffective, both the Konoha and Uchiha people began to panic.
If Sarutobi Hiruzen died at the hands of Uchiha Obito, things would become very serious.
Most obviously, it would intensify the conflict between Konoha and the Uchiha.
If one wasn't careful, it could even trigger a Konoha civil war or a Ninja World War.
Therefore, neither the Uchiha nor the Konoha people present wanted to see such a scene.
Yet, at this moment, Uchiha Obito seemed determined to kill Sarutobi Hiruzen.
No matter what the people present said or how they tried to persuade him, he paid them no mind at all...
"Obito, Dad said not to cause trouble, and even more so, not to kill anyone..."
Just as everyone was falling into despair, an optimistic voice reached their ears.
"Naruto, you... how did you come here?"
Seeing who had arrived, Uchiha Obito was stunned for a moment, and then actually began to appear somewhat at a loss...
In front of people he was close to, Uchiha Obito always tried his best to preserve a gentle side.
He cherished his relationship with Minato and the others very much; he always hoped that he could have a positive image in their hearts!
Therefore, unless it was a last resort, he didn't want the people around him to see his cruel side, let alone killing someone...
"Dad was afraid you'd act recklessly, and also, we've already ordered our food!"
Uzumaki Naruto, as if he didn't see the painful groans of the people on the ground, said to Obito with a smile!
Having grown up reading the expressions of others, Uzumaki Naruto knew Obito's current unease!
With his high emotional intelligence, he naturally wouldn't go exposing his scars at a time like this!
"Alright! I happen to be hungry too, let's go!"
Seeing Naruto's expression as usual, Uchiha Obito secretly breathed a sigh of relief!
He slowly retracted his Kamui, then walked to Uzumaki Naruto's side and said with a smile!
Uzumaki Naruto's sudden appearance caused the bit of killing intent Uchiha Obito had just raised to vanish into thin air.
As for the few Uchiha still standing, he let them go for the time being...
The moment the spatial pressure vanished, Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately collapsed onto the ground.
Having experienced countless battles, he had never imagined that one day he would almost die at the hands of a child.
"Please, please wait a moment!"
Seeing Uchiha Obito about to leave, the Uchiha people became somewhat anxious.
Their purpose in coming here was to obtain news about Uchiha Madara.
Now, not only had they failed to get the news, but they had ended up covered in injuries.
If they went back like this, it would be too shameful... ===== CHAPTER 628 =====
