"Obito, you finally admitted it!" Duke's face was no longer smiling or cursing, but he said with a serious face: "I didn't find your body in the Land of Grass, and I knew at that time that you must not be dead. Come back, your dream is to become Hokage!"

"Obito..." Minato looked at the masked Obito with a dull look in his eyes. The lively disciple who once dreamed of becoming Hokage had suddenly become the culprit who destroyed Konoha, and his teacher, who had known each other for a long time, could not recognize him.

"Duke recognized Obito at a glance, and I..." For the first time, Minato felt like such a failure.

"Hehehe, hahahaha..." Obito took off the mask on his face, revealing half of his disfigured and scarred face, and smiled at Duke: "Duke, I still couldn't hide it from you."

Although he had confirmed Obito's identity, when he saw that familiar face, Minato still widened his eyes in surprise: "Obito, it's really you! Since you are still alive, why don't you return to Konoha? Why do you do this?"

Obito sneered and said, "Why? It's because you two didn't save Lin from death!"

Well! In the memory that Madara wove for Obito, Minato also had a part in Rin's death.

Duke had never seen Minato like this before. It was only then that he realized that Minato, who wore the robe of the Fourth Hokage and always had a bright smile on his face, actually carried so much pressure.

Upon hearing that his disciple had been controlled and became the sinner who destroyed Konoha, Minato's deep amber pupils darkened and murderous intent filled his eyes.

Duke had seen the pattern of the Mangekyo in Uchiha Madara's...

"I understand! Senior Brother Minato, I leave this to you!" Duke said, turned and left, heading straight towards the direction of the Nine-Tails' chakra.

"Please believe me!"

Konoha Village, central area!

"Team Two, organize water-style ninjas to put out the fire!"

"Teacher, I have never been so clear-headed as I am now!" Obito took out a long iron chain from his sleeve and buckled both ends of the chain around his wrists.

At this moment, Minato was no longer a Hokage, he was just a teacher who saved lost disciples.

"Every second counts. Go a little faster. Every second faster can save one more life."

"Duke, leave it to me! You have done enough for Obito, now let me, an incompetent teacher, fulfill my duties!" Minato stared at Obito deeply, with a trace of sadness in his eyes, but more of it was expectation: "That child's dream is to become Hokage. Before he makes the same mistake again and again, it's not too late."

“Hoooooooooooooo——”

"Where is the medical team? There are a lot of seriously injured people here. Haven't they arrived yet?"

"Brother Minato, let's work together to take down that Sharingan." Duke took a step forward, breathing out cold air.

"Obito..." Minato was about to persuade him again, but Duke stopped him with his hand.

Duke was not worried at all about whether Minato could defeat Obito. As both were space-time ninjas, there was no overwhelming advantage between Minato and Obito. In a stalemate, the only thing that could determine the outcome of the two was the brain.

"Team one, team three, quickly rescue the villagers from the rubble!"

"Obito, when you come to your senses, I will teach you a lesson." Minato's calm voice sounded.

At this moment, a long howl was heard in the field, and the ground began to rumble. Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked towards the source of the howl in fear: "Could it be... Is the Nine-Tailed Fox back again?"

On the noisy streets, ninjas and civilians rescued more and more wounded people, but there was a serious shortage of medical ninjas. More and more wounded people were lying on the ground, and their breathing gradually stopped because they were not treated in time.

Bang! The Split Dog turned into white smoke and dissipated. Obito landed steadily on the ground and stood far in front of the two.

"Reporting to the captain, except for the Konoha Hospital, all the medical ninjas in the village are treating the wounded...but we still don't have enough manpower here." The Chunin with a black and gray face said sadly.

Sobbing, shouting, and desperate cries could be heard everywhere. The people who were still alive ignored their injuries and tore through the rubble with their hands in tears, trying to dig out their loved ones. Occasionally, they found their loved ones and cried together, but more people dug out a familiar corpse and let out heart-wrenching wails.

"Hades, go straight past the village and get there as fast as possible." Duke jumped on top of Hades and ordered. In Sage Mode, he sensed that Zixiao's chakra was approaching the Nine-Tails.

The Nine-Tails was taken out of the village by Minato using the Space-Time Ninjutsu. The streets were filled with fire and smoke, and the ruins left by the Nine-Tails were everywhere. The once prosperous commercial street, along with the nearby residential areas, were all in ruins, and the sight was a mess.

Duke suddenly realized why Obito opened the Mangekyō before Rin died? Why did everything go the way it was? All of this was Uchiha Madara's conspiracy, and he was the one who was causing trouble.

The next second, the two figures disappeared instantly...

"But..." Duke frowned. Now was not the time to act on impulse.

"Brother Minato, pay attention to Obito's left eye. His Sharingan was given to Kakashi, so it's impossible for him to have a second one. I suspect that the Sharingan was given to him by Uchiha Madara... Obito is being controlled." Duke quickly deduced the truth with a few clues and his familiarity with the original work. At this moment, the Duke of the detective world was possessed.

"Damn it, why is this happening? Damn Nine-Tails!" The Jonin pushed away the Chunin and punched the wall.

"Why would that kind of monster appear in Konoha...it deserves to die." The tall, bear-like jonin looked at the cruel scene in front of him, his tiger eyes filled with tears, and he felt boundless hatred for the Nine-Tails in his heart.

"Okay, let's kill the teacher here first, and then go kill Duke, then no one will know my identity." Obito put on the mask again, covering the slowly rotating scarlet Sharingan.

The ground rumbled and shook, and Hades ran all the way over. He was flung away by the Shinra Tensei, the enhanced version of Tendo Pain, and was originally seriously injured like the big toads, but the Hashirama cells in his body saved his life and healed his seriously injured body in the shortest possible time.

After Obito took off his mask, Duke said nothing. He stared at Obito's left eye. In the eye socket that should have been empty, there was a Mangekyō Sharingan.

Minato was stunned by what he said: "Rin...Rin is alive and well!"

The master and the disciple looked at each other, neither speaking, but there was a faint aura surging in their bodies. The invisible auras collided with each other, and the air suddenly solidified.

"Then go to the hospital and grab that person. Do you need me to teach you this?" The Jonin helped the civilian up and shouted while pulling the Chunin's collar.

The wind-controlling robe danced with the wind, and Duke saw countless emotions in Minato's clear eyes. The joy that his disciple was safe, the relief that his disciple had grown, the sorrow that his disciple had gone astray, the anger at the conspirators behind the scenes, the self-blame for not discovering it earlier...

"Nonsense!" Obito's face changed drastically, and he said angrily: "Don't blaspheme the dead! I have seen the Rin you are talking about, the fake one in Konoha Hospital. Stop lying, how could the real Rin be so ugly!"

"Please save my poor child, she is about to die." A civilian knelt in front of the jonin and kowtowed continuously, and soon his forehead was covered with blood.

Hades roared, and his huge silver-white body turned into a silver hurricane, like an arrow shot from a bow, soaring through the air at high speed, leaving a trail of afterimages. "Obito, the next battle between us master and disciple will begin!" Minato held the Flying Thunder God's special kunai and looked at Obito cautiously.

A tall jonin, sweating profusely, was directing the scene, digging out more and more wounded people, but he found that there were very few medical ninjas in his team.

The brain is a good thing! Duke didn't know how high Minato's IQ was, but he was confident in Obito's brain! ...

“Hoooooooooooooooooo——”

"roar----"

Silver lightning streaked across the night sky, and a majestic giant wolf appeared in the distance. Its body was as fast as a flash of light, and it stopped in front of the jonin in the blink of an eye.

"Don't panic, keep saving people, this is... our Konoha's summoning beast!" The senior ninja was quite perceptive and calmed the panicked crowd.

Duke looked at the ruins that looked like the end of the world, and his heart was bleeding. Humans are emotional animals. Even if he said that he didn't care about Konoha, he had already recognized this place in his heart. Whether it was for war or peace, civilians were innocent after all, and misfortune and suffering should not befall them.

"Are you a ninja from the village? Tell me your ninja number!" The senior ninja had excellent eyesight. He saw Duke above the wolf's head in the dark. He wanted to jump on top of Hades' head, but was glared at by the ferocious golden wolf's eyes. He obediently jumped onto the tilted water tower beside him.
