"Captain Fugaku."
Shintaro's figure suddenly appeared.
Since he was on the edge of the Uchiha Clan station, his house was not too affected, but it took some time to resolve the situation.
He had been meditating and training until the Kyuubi's movements startled his senses and were noticed by the Six Eyes.
"I wanted to deal with the Kyuubi directly, but I was stopped by someone from the police, saying that you were looking for me."
Fugaku put down his hand, sighed, and said, "Yes, I was looking for you."
"This time, do not take action."
"Look at what's in the Kyuubi's eyes."
Shintaro replied: "Sharingan."
"Yes, the high officials of Konoha have warned us and ordered the Uchiha Clan not to participate in the battle and to be responsible for protecting the civilians."
"Shintaro, you are also an Uchiha..."

At this moment, in a building in Konoha, an ANBU knelt and reported the situation.
And the one standing in front of him was none other than Hiruzen, wearing a black combat uniform.
"I understand, I will suppress it, and you are responsible for protecting the non-combatants!"
"As you ordered!"
Hiruzen put on his arm guards, with a few drops of cold sweat appearing on his forehead.
"Has Kushina's seal been released?"
"Were so many measures useless?"
"Biwa..."
Hiruzen was worried about his wife.
❀❀❀
A group of ninjas was ambushing among some trees in Konoha.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes!"
The Kyuubi continued to destroy Konoha's buildings, creating thick smoke that obscured its long-lost vision.
At this moment, amidst the thick smoke, a ninja jumped out and aimed several explosive-tag kunai at the Kyuubi's head.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
The explosion of the tags, at most, only made the Kyuubi itch.
The Kyuubi swatted the man away with a single strike.
On the other side, two more ninjas jumped.
The same attack with explosive tags also had no effect and was shot away by the Kyuubi.
Two more jumped in front of the Kyuubi, and this time they were directly thrown away.
"ROAARRR!!!"
The Kyuubi grew impatient and let out a roar that startled the Konoha ninjas waiting.
"Don't be shy! Even if we can't defeat the Kyuubi, to allow the villagers to evacuate, we must do our best to hold it here..."
The Jonin who was calming everyone still turned around and spoke when he suddenly felt a terrifying pressure behind him.
The Kyuubi lowered its head and saw the Konoha ninjas hiding in the trees.
Watching everyone cruelly with its red Sharingan.
*BAAM*
The Kyuubi slapped with one palm, and the entire Konoha blocking team was annihilated.
On the roof, a group of ninjas was running.
"Don't act without permission! Meet with Hiruzen-sama!"
"Apply that order." Hiruzen commanded, and the nearby ninja began passing on the order.
He led a large number of ninjas to quickly approach the Kyuubi.

At this moment, Minato's figure appeared on Konoha's Hokage Rock, his cloak fluttering in the wind.
Seeing Konoha's disarray, he solemnly said to himself, "Now it is my duty to bear the name of Hokage and protect my family in the village."
"I cannot let them do whatever they want!"
The Kyuubi suddenly turned towards Minato.
"Have you noticed me?"
Minato stood ready.
The Kyuubi lifted its head and immediately condensed a Bijudama in its mouth and shot it.
The air wave alone destroyed many houses.
"Don't ever think of destroying this place!"
Minato quickly formed a seal.
The Bijudama hit the Hokage Rock but was swallowed by the rune barrier that appeared there.
Immediately after, Minato reached out to a kunai, a dazzling fire explosion appeared in the distance, followed by a loud explosion.
The Kyuubi's Bijudama seemed faster and stronger compared to other Bijuu.
"With such a scale, it seems the explosion point must be carefully chosen."
In Konoha, the ninjas who were initially anxious because of the Kyuubi's Bijudama finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Especially Hiruzen, he didn't take action now because he couldn't protect the village when the Kyuubi fired a Bijudama.
Being able to protect oneself from the Bijudama attack was the limit of his capability.
"That was Minato..."
Hiruzen had to admit that Minato was more capable than him in protecting Konoha.
If the Bijudama had exploded in the village, the consequences would have been catastrophic.
The three members of Ino-Shika-Cho were also part of the ninja team led by Hiruzen.
Akimichi Choza squinted his eyes and looked up, saying, "A technique that diverts the Kyuubi's attack... This is a space-time barrier!"
Nara Shikaku's face was sweating coldly, "That was Minato!"
This time, Hiruzen gave the order, "Very well, let's go together as well!"
The ninjas responded.
"Yes!"
❀❀❀
Minato still stood on Hokage Rock, "I must report the situation so far to the Third Hokage as soon as possible."
He was still thinking when a hand came from behind.
Minato immediately turned around and looked back. The kunai was inserted into the mysterious masked man behind him, but the kunai pierced through the head of the mysterious masked man, instead, the masked man grabbed his wrist.
"Your opponent is me."
A spiral space distortion occurred, trying to drag Minato into it.
Suddenly, Minato disappeared from his place.
This made the mysterious masked man raise his hand in surprise.
"It seems I have to absorb you as soon as possible next time. I will take care of you once I touch you."
At this moment, Minato landed in an opening in the forest with a kunai in his hand, looking somewhat embarrassed.
"My attack penetrated him, but he could materialize and planned to suck me in immediately."
"What kind of ninjutsu is that?"
Minato had never seen such a difficult ninjutsu, but he could feel that the [Hiraishin no Jutsu] he mastered belonged to the same category of space-time ninjutsu.
Suddenly, after a spiral round in front of him, the mysterious masked man appeared again.
"Watch where you run."
"This guy can also use space-time ninjutsu?" Minato verified his suspicion, but he was not pleased at all.
The rarity and power of space-time ninjutsu indicated that he was not an easy opponent in front of him.
Minato took the kunai and analyzed it calmly, "Maybe because of his ability, he could teleport with Kushina."
He stood, guessing in his mind the identity of the mysterious masked man, and said, "You can kill all ANBU directly under the Third Hokage."
"Bypass the secret barrier and tent set up by Shintaro. Knowing the Kyuubi seal during production weakened this. Even opening the Kyuubi seal and taming it."
"And... a ninja who can come and go freely without being hindered by Konoha's barriers."
"There is only one person I know."
"Are you Uchiha Madara?"
