Chapter 157 Obito, Get Ready for Your Gift!
Chapter 157 Obito, Get Ready for Your Gift!
In the graveyard of mountains, Obito looked at the White Zetsu slowly emerging from the ground and asked a question.
"How's it going? Any news about the Three-Tails, Isobu? Wasn't it said that after a Jinchuriki dies, the Tailed Beasts would disappear for a while, but would soon reappear in the ninja world? How much time has passed, and why is there still no news?"
Bai Jue shrugged and said.
"We have no news at all. We have searched almost the entire ninja world, but we have not found any trace of the tailed beasts. However, we have discovered some exciting news."
"What news?"
"Your teacher Minato's wife, Kushina Uzumaki, is pregnant."
"Pregnant? What great news!"
Black Zetsu appeared at the right moment, attaching himself to White Zetsu and becoming half black and half white.
"When a Jinchuriki gives birth, the seal inside their body will loosen. Back then, Madara Uchiha forcibly signed a summoning contract with the Nine-Tails, and he left that contract behind."
In other words, as long as you activate the Summoning Jutsu on the day the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki gives birth, you can forcibly break free from the Nine-Tails' Kazekage and summon the Nine-Tails.
"Nine-Tails!"
Obito fell into deep thought.
Seeing that Obito was deep in thought, Black Zetsu immediately spoke up to tempt him.
"Obito, what are you still hesitating about now?"
Do you think you can still return to Konoha?
Have you forgotten Lin's death?
Or do you still have hope for this world?
"Humph."
Obito snorted coldly and glanced at Black Zetsu with a cold look.
"I know what I should do, you don't need to provoke me like this. I'm just thinking, even if you know it's this Kushina who's pregnant, so what?"
The fact that a Jinchuriki is pregnant is a secret in any ninja village, so how can you possibly confirm her exact delivery date?
"Hehehe, you don't need to worry about that. Just leave it to us to investigate, and we'll bring you back a satisfactory answer."
Black Zetsu and White Zetsu slowly sank underground. They left, seemingly to investigate Kushina's exact birth date.
At the Weasel Grave, Rin was sparring with a weasel the size of a human. Since she came here, the only people she could come into contact with besides Tetsuya were these talking weasels.
These weasels were specially found by Tetsuya for Rin to practice with. After all, in cultivation, without a reference, simply working in isolation and meditating endlessly will not lead to improvement.
"Water Release: Heaven's Cry!"
"Water Escape·Water Formation Wall!"
"Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet!"
"Water Release: Great Waterfall Technique!"
"Water Escape..."
The two, one human and one yellow weasel, engaged in a ninjutsu duel, both using water-style ninjutsu.
Rin has a very high compatibility with water-style ninjutsu, especially since she also has a three-tailed beast inside her. As a tailed beast that lives in the water, the three-tailed beast Isobu is a natural-born master of water-style ninjutsu.
At Tetsuya's prompting, Rin and Isobu communicated continuously, and Isobu gradually lent his power to Rin, whose combat strength was constantly improving.
Anyone who still mistakes Rin for the weak, pitiful, and helpless medical ninja of the past is probably in for a world of trouble.
Even without using Isobu's power, Rin could easily kill several unsuspecting people with a single Water Release: Water Release attack. It wouldn't be a problem to mistake her for a medical ninja.
If the power of the Three-Tails were used, then Rin should now be firmly in the top tier of ninja power.
But if Fan Lin encounters any danger, the Three-Tails Isobu will unconditionally lend her his power, allowing her to activate the Three-Tails Chakra Mode, which would further boost her combat strength, not to mention the trump card of complete Tailed Beast Transformation.
"Lin."
"master!"
Lin stopped her cultivation, and when the weasel saw Tetsuya appear, it rubbed its little hands together and ran over.
Tetsuya took out a sealing scroll from his sleeve and tossed it to the weasel. The weasel was overjoyed and ran off with the scroll in its arms.
"Lin, how's your training going? Is your communication with Isobu going well?"
"The progress is not bad. I have mastered various ninjutsu, and I have also learned to temporarily change hand seals to switch ninjutsu."
As Lin spoke, she felt a little smug. To be honest, since she started training with this master, she felt that she had made rapid progress. Of course, this was only in ninjutsu. As for sage techniques, she couldn't say that her progress was slow, but it was more accurate to say that she had made no progress at all.
"The communication with Isobu is going well; he's now willing to lend me some of his resources."
"Very good, I knew I hadn't misjudged you."
Tetsuya first acknowledged Rin's training progress before speaking.
"I've brought you two pieces of news again this time."
"I hope it won't be another mix of good and bad."
"Hmm, that's clever, you guessed it right away."
"Well, at least there's some good news, isn't there?"
Lin seemed to be used to it all along.
"Master, tell me the good news first."
"Your teacher, Minato Namikaze, is going to be a father."
"Really?! Minato-sensei is going to be a father! That means Kushina-sensei's wife is going to have a baby!"
"Yes."
"Great, we're going to have a junior brother."
Lin clapped her hands happily.
"Don't get too excited yet, there's still bad news."
What's the bad news?
"Do you remember that traitor from the Uchiha clan I told you about before?"
Lin nodded.
"I remember, he's that Uchiha rogue ninja whose ability allows him to become invincible in the intangible realm. Of course I remember him. What's wrong, Master? Is he going to attack Konoha?"
"That's right. And it's not just about taking action. He also learned that your teacher's wife, Kushina, is pregnant. He plans to attack the Nine-Tails inside her on the day she gives birth."
"Nine-Tails!"
Lin immediately tensed up.
"Teacher, if he attacks the Nine-Tailed Fox inside my wife, wouldn't my wife and my unborn junior brother be in danger!"
No, absolutely not!
Thinking about it, Lin made an anxious request.
"Master, could you let me go back to the ninja world one more time? I want to go back to protect my wife and my unborn junior brother."
Please, I have to go back no matter what.
"Calm down, Lin."
Tetsuya patted Rin on the shoulder, comforting her.
"I'm telling you this news so that you can go back, but your time to return to the ninja world is limited, so there's no point in going back now."
"When should I go back?"
Tetsuya said seriously.
"When he's about to make a move, go back and stop him so he can't do anything that could harm Kushina."
Lin thought about it carefully and it seemed that doing it this way was indeed better.
"Okay, I will follow Master's instructions."
Tetsuya nodded in satisfaction, while thinking to himself.
"Obito, are you ready to receive the gift I've prepared for you?"
What would it be like to meet the girl you've been longing for, but you're both wearing masks and can't recognize each other? Hehehehe.
