Naruto: The Nine-Tails' Legacy Chapter 50: Kurama Takes the Field

The Shadow Clone Technique required hand seals.

Which ant Minato would temporarily interrupt the Water Release technique.

And under Sage Mode, creating Shadow Clones consud even more chakra than usual, aning Minato's attack duration would end earlier than expected, disrupting the strategy he had established beforehand.

Yet Minato did not hesitate.

The instant Kurama finished speaking, he had already ford the Shadow Clone.

As another Naruto appeared beside him, Minato imdiately sensed the clone's chakra fluctuate strangely.

Then—

The Shadow Clone abruptly broke free from his control.

"Tch. This feels weird."

Shadow Clone Naruto smacked his lips impatiently.

Despite the life-and-death situation, he still had the mood to kick his legs, pinch his cheeks, and stretch around like he was warming up.

But after a mont, the clone turned toward Minato—who currently possessed Naruto's real body—and waved dismissively.

"Alright, leave this place to this old man."

"You go do whatever you need to do."

"Just hurry up."

"This old man isn't used to human bodies."

"And who knows how long this clone can even last."

Minato had never imagined Kurama could directly control a Shadow Clone through chakra.

After all—

He had never even heard of sothing like this before.

And honestly—

If anyone else were present and understood the truth behind the scene, they would definitely find it absurdly bizarre.

The two "Narutos" currently talking to each other…

Were both not actually Naruto.

anwhile, the real Naruto's consciousness sat within the ntal world, utterly confused while staring blankly at the gray fog surrounding him.

Other than the mist obscuring almost everything—

There was nothing there.

Naruto fumbled around for a while before eventually reaching the massive bars representing the seal.

Then he curiously peeked toward the completely fog-covered interior.

"This looks kinda familiar…"

"Where am I?"

"The Water Release stopped?"

Though still intangible, Obito imdiately sensed the changes in the surrounding current.

His gaze turned cold.

"Did the enemy escape?"

If the target escaped now, it would beco troubleso for him as well.

After all, he had already reached an agreent with Itachi Uchiha.

And tonight's events absolutely could not leak to the outside world.

Still—

Who exactly was this person?

The Uchiha clan actually had soone this strong hidden away…?

"Oi. What're you thinking about?"

A wildly arrogant and contemptuous voice suddenly rang out from above.

Obito was startled and instinctively looked upward.

Then—

He saw a face he never could have imagined appearing here.

"Kakashi?"

Obito froze.

Then he imdiately realized blurting out that na was a mistake.

He shouldn't have reacted so strongly.

If soone observant noticed it, they could potentially deduce his identity from that alone.

But no matter what, Obito never imagined the other person would resemble Kakashi so perfectly.

Exactly the sa as back at Kannabi Bridge.

Even the body shape…

No.

Obito instantly reacted.

His Sharingan filled with fury.

"You think such a pathetic Transformation Technique can fool ?!"

Space twisted violently around him.

The next instant, Obito appeared directly behind "Kakashi."

His attack arrived with terrifying speed.

Yet "Kakashi" seed to have anticipated everything beforehand.

The mont Obito shifted position using Kamui, the transford clone had already darted away in another direction.

The speed was astonishing.

Like a streak of crimson lightning.

Obito's attack struck nothing but air.

More importantly—

He still hadn't sensed even the slightest chakra signature from the enemy's movents.

It was as though the other party relied purely on taijutsu and Body Flicker alone.

How was that possible?

Obito slowly raised his head.

Behind the mask, his expression darkened.

He was hesitating.

The enemy's actions clearly aid to draw his attention away.

And unlike before—

The opponent had stopped using ninjutsu to trap him.

Instead, he deliberately transford into Kakashi from the past.

The enemy made absolutely no effort to hide the fact that they were stalling for ti.

anwhile, the Uchiha girl from earlier had completely vanished as well.

The situation had changed.

And that imdiately made Obito realize sothing was wrong.

This massacre of the Uchiha clan had been orchestrated entirely by Konoha's upper leadership.

Soone like this shouldn't have appeared here at all.

So which faction did this person belong to?

Just as Obito decided to temporarily regroup with Itachi in order to identify the intruder—

The Shadow Clone controlled by Kurama, still transford into Kakashi, suddenly stopped moving.

Then he slowly turned around.

With absolute contempt—

He spat out a single na.

"Obito Uchiha."

Then the fake Kakashi smirked coldly.

"What?"

"Not continuing anymore?"
