Capítulo 57: **Chapter 56: The Uchiha's Restless Spirit**
Behind, the barrier of the Uchiha Fire Flame Formation rose high. At the center of Konoha, a massive surge of chakra also erupted into the sky.
This chakra had become so dense it was practically tangible, affecting the surrounding area.
But this form...
Obito Uchiha frowned slightly.
He hadn't expected that even with his Mangekyō Sharingan in control, he could only release six tails, not reaching the full power of the Nine-Tails.
It seemed that his teacher's sealing technique still held strong. His abilities couldn't fully break the Nine-Tails' seal—only create a crack.
This crack allowed the Nine-Tails' chakra to spread on its own, gradually taking over the body and consuming Naruto Uzumaki's will.
But!
It didn't matter.
The current seven-tailed state was sufficient, even if it wasn't as awe-inspiring as the full Nine-Tails.
"Roar!"
A red claw shot out rapidly, aiming directly at Obito's chest.
But it passed through Obito's body and crashed into a Konoha building.
"Ninetails! Don't be so hostile towards me!"
"After all... I'm the one who set you free."
"Go! Let Konoha witness your power once again."
Obito Uchiha gave a cold glance before his figure vanished.
"Roar!"
The Nine-Tails roared, recognizing the mysterious man from five or six years ago.
This man had controlled him to destroy Konoha before, and though the Nine-Tails didn't mind doing so, it resented being controlled.
Years ago, Hashirama and Madara treated him as nothing more than a pet. One used him as a weapon without a second thought, while the other held him by the hand, deeming him too dangerous.
The Nine-Tails intended to settle the score with Konoha for the grievances caused by these two.
But, if Konoha were to be destroyed, it would be by his own hand—not through someone else's control.
And now, this Uchiha scum had appeared again to manipulate him.
These Uchiha bastards—they weren't even human.
Today, he would make sure to light up the Uchiha clan's district like fireworks.
The Nine-Tails remembered the territory the Uchiha clan had built very well.
*Boom!*
Crimson chakra burst forth from the Nine-Tails, forming massive tendrils that lashed out in all directions.
In mere moments, the area within a hundred meters was reduced to rubble.
The Nine-Tails stood alone atop the ruins, roaring in fury.
*Buzz!*
A Tailed Beast Bomb began to form, an immense and terrifying chakra gathering at the apex.
The dark purple sphere, about the size of a fist, contained world-ending power.
As the Tailed Beast Bomb neared completion, the Nine-Tails opened its mouth wide and swallowed it whole.
Its mouth glowed with fire, cheeks bulging.
White smoke began to rise from the corners of its mouth.
With a roar, the Nine-Tails unleashed a massive energy beam.
*Boom!*
The crimson energy beam surged toward the Sarutobi, Utatane, and Mito clan territories.
The Uchiha district had already been divided up among these three clans.
Since the Nine-Tails had been sealed within Naruto Uzumaki, it had to rely on Naruto's knowledge to understand the outside world.
But Konoha had kept Naruto restricted, so the Nine-Tails was unaware of the internal changes in the village over the years.
"Nine-Tails, don't even think about it!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi was furious as he faced the Nine-Tails.
He hadn't expected someone to take advantage of the chaos to release the Nine-Tails' seal.
The power of the Nine-Tails was something they had already experienced five years ago.
Such terrifying strength was beyond what any normal person could handle.
Hiruzen Sarutobi leaped into action, positioning himself in front of the Sarutobi clan.
He bit his finger and pressed it to the ground.
"Fivefold Rashōmon!"
With a roar, a series of massive gates materialized, each slamming into the earth in rapid succession.
Five massive and terrifying gates stood tall in front of the energy beam.
*Boom!*
In an instant, the energy beam shattered all five gates.
At that moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart sank. The strength he had accumulated over so many years was now reduced to ashes.
"Summoning Jutsu!"
A large cloud of white smoke erupted behind Hiruzen Sarutobi, and a massive shield came forward to block the attack.
But the power of the Tailed Beast Bomb was terrifying!
Back when the Four-Tails appeared, Orochimaru's triple Rashōmon couldn't even cushion the attack. Now, the Nine-Tails was unleashing chakra at the level of a seven-tailed beast.
Gamahiro, the giant toad, barely had time to shield himself.
*Boom!*
The energy beam engulfed Gamahiro entirely, and the remaining shockwaves devastated the Sarutobi clan's district.
Screams of agony echoed through the air as countless Sarutobi clan ninjas cried out in despair.
Hiruzen Sarutobi's decades of planning had been utterly destroyed.
"The Nine-Tails' Tailed Beast Bomb... it's truly terrifying."
Jiraiya's voice came from atop Gamahiro's head.
As soon as the Nine-Tails' chakra erupted, Jiraiya rushed to the scene. He hadn't expected the Nine-Tails to manifest seven tails this time.
If this continued, the Nine-Tails would undoubtedly take over Naruto's body, fully breaking free from the seal placed by Minato.
"Hiruzen, this isn't the time for idle talk!"
"The release of the Nine-Tails was likely premeditated—definitely an Uchiha plot!"
"Since you're here, I'll leave the Nine-Tails to you. I need to check on the Uchiha clan."
"We must drive the Nine-Tails out of Konoha; we can't let it wreak havoc here."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes were filled with fury as he looked toward the Sarutobi clan's district. His hatred for the Uchiha clan deepened even further.
Seeing Jiraiya, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly handed over the responsibility of dealing with the Nine-Tails. He had no confidence in facing such a monster on his own.
Under normal circumstances, Konoha's sealing team would have been summoned to create a barrier and re-seal the Nine-Tails. But now, there was no time for that.
With the Uchiha clan in chaos, there was no chance to gather forces.
"Leave it to me. After all, he... he is Minato's child."
Jiraiya's expression grew more solemn as he looked toward the Nine-Tails. His tone became heavy.
Naruto's current predicament was partly his fault. As Minato's mentor, he hadn't returned to check on Naruto in all these years.
Now, he had to stop the Nine-Tails and re-seal it, no matter what.
"I'll leave it to you!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi swiftly dismissed the Rashōmon gates, glanced at the Sarutobi clan's district, and saw that most of the ninjas had evacuated, leaving behind only children and the elderly.
A cold glint flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes as he quickly headed toward the Uchiha district.
Suddenly, a sense of danger washed over him—an instinct honed by years of teetering on the edge of life and death.
Hiruzen Sarutobi halted abruptly.
"Third Hokage!"
A hand reached out from the void, grasping for the Third Hokage.
Hiruzen Sarutobi summoned Enma, the Monkey King, and swung his staff down.
"Who are you?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi steadied himself, still shaken. How had so many monsters suddenly appeared in Konoha? Who was this new foe?
"Me? Just a wandering soul of the dead."
Obito Uchiha, wearing his mask, looked coldly at Hiruzen Sarutobi with his Sharingan. The iron chains in his hand clattered as they fell to the ground.
"A wandering soul..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi narrowed his eyes at Obito.
The Sharingan!
Another Uchiha.
The Uchiha had been planning this for a long time. This man was here to stall him.
He could only hope that Danzo would hurry and suppress the Uchiha clan, bringing an end to Konoha's chaos.
"Damn it, what's going on?"
Fugaku Uchiha stood dumbfounded as he looked at the two scenes unfolding in Konoha.
On one side, a violent chakra was ravaging and destroying Konoha.
He recognized it—it was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.
On the other side, the Uchiha Fire Flame Formation had risen, trapping the clan heads inside.
As the head of the Uchiha clan, Fugaku was completely out of the loop, unaware of both events.
Raijin's rebellion didn't involve him at all.
Fugaku's situation was now awkward; he didn't know which side to take.
If he sided with Konoha, would they trust him afterward?
As for siding with Raijin...
Damn it!
Raijin was forcing him into rebellion.
"Fugaku-sama, what should we do?"
An Uchiha clan member approached Fugaku, his eyes burning with fervor.
Could it be...
Are we going to join the rebellion too?
This seems like the perfect opportunity.

**Author's Notes:**
Don't worry, I haven't lost my cool!
I've been playing LoL since Season 3, spending those years in the bronze, silver, and gold ranks. For the past three years, I haven't even been muted.
My low aggression is because I've become more peaceful over the years, too lazy to curse or argue.
Back then, I could take on three opponents at once, causing two of them to rage quit—do I need to say more about my skills?
