"He's someone I don't recognize..."

Minato Namikaze let out a long sigh, tossing the broken mask in his hand aside.

As the dust settled, a large pool of white blood became visible on the ground.

Huge craters appeared on the ground and tree trunk, silently attesting to the immense power of Minato's full-strength Rasengan just moments before.

He had essentially blasted Obito to death.

Looking at the pale face full of hatred and unwillingness lying in a pool of blood, Minato shook his head helplessly.

Although there was an indescribable sense of familiarity, he indeed did not recognize this person.

Minato seemed to think of something and lifted the eyelids of the masked man. One eye had lost its light, and the other was a deep, dark void.

There was no expected Sharingan tomoe.

Why impersonate Uchiha Madara? Why launch an attack on Kaigetsu-kun? All these questions remained unanswered due to the masked man's death.

"Although you were the enemy, you weren't bad."

"Strange vitality, space-time ninjutsu comparable to the Flying Thunder God, the ability to make your body intangible..."

Minato had to admit, this was the most formidable enemy he had encountered besides the "A-B Combo" of the Kumogakure. In some ways, this guy was even more troublesome than the "A-B Combo."

If such a powerful enemy harboring hostility toward Konoha were allowed to roam free, Minato Namikaze would feel uneasy.

People live for peace of mind.

This time, the masked man had attempted to assassinate Kaigetsu-kun, who bore the Flying Thunder God mark and had mastered fixed-point communication ninjutsu. What about next time? If the masked man targeted other elders of the village, could they defend against it?

But Minato wasn't worried about the other Konoha elders besides Kaigetsu-kun...

To say something irreverent, even if the other elders besides the Third Hokage were assassinated, it would only slightly affect Konoha's prestige in the ninja world-not a significant concern.

But what if... the masked man targeted Kushina?

He was the Hokage; it was impossible for him to be by Kushina's side 24/7. Moreover, the day of Kushina's childbirth was approaching...

He had just tested the depths of the masked man's abilities. Ignoring the assassination ability to escape thousands of miles away after a failed strike and the ability to make his body intangible to avoid attacks, his own ninjutsu skills weren't exceptionally high.

Probably... at the level of an elite Jonin?

But facts are facts, and facts speak louder than words. These two strange abilities of the enemy couldn't be ignored.

The activation speed of the masked man's abilities was so fast that only someone like him, the Yellow Flash, could barely dodge. Moreover, Kushina wasn't like Killer Bee of the Kumogakure-a perfect Jinchuriki who could freely utilize the Nine-Tails' power.

If the masked man attempted to assassinate Kushina, especially on the day of her childbirth...

Minato couldn't help but shudder. The consequences would be unimaginable.
