Kushina was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Come on in, Minato, dinner is just ready."
Upon hearing this, Namikaze Minato scratched his head, planning to explain to Kushina that in his reanimated state, he couldn't eat anything.
"Ah, it's Dad! You're back?"
At this moment, Naruto also happened to return home. Seeing Namikaze Minato, his face immediately lit up with joy.
Last time, Uzumaki Naruto had already come to accept Namikaze Minato. The father and son got along quite well, and Namikaze Minato had promised to teach Naruto a very powerful ninjutsu next time he returned, so Naruto was very much looking forward to it.
Seeing how close the father and son were, a faint smile appeared on Kushina's face. But when she touched her belly, worry and fear inevitably surfaced in her heart again.
Now more than a month had passed. When Kushina touched her belly, she could already feel some movements. If Minato stayed for two or three months or even longer, by then she'd have to use the Transformation Jutsu.
But how could the Transformation Jutsu possibly fool Minato...
Kushina thought worriedly. Suddenly, she kind of wished Minato would leave, but when she realized this thought, she immediately cursed herself in her mind. Naruto finally got to see his father, and Minato missed them dearly—how could she think that!
As Kushina went to the kitchen to get bowls, she suddenly heard Minato shout loudly, "Who are you? Let go of Naruto!"
An enemy?
Kushina quickly set down the bowls and chopsticks and came out of the kitchen, only to see a man in white clothing with Byakugan, holding Naruto by the neck. Behind this Byakugan enemy was an unclosed spatial portal.
"Nice to meet you, this era's Uzumaki Naruto. I didn't expect to catch you so easily. I arrived just in time..."
Before Otsutsuki Urashiki could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Kushina's angry shout.
"You bastard, what do you want to do to Naruto!!"
Bang!
The furious Kushina suddenly burst out with powerful chakra, forming a golden Tamoe robe on her body like flames. The whiskers of the Nine-tailed appeared on her face as well.
"Oh dear... what's going on here?"
Otsutsuki Urashiki was taken aback seeing the Nine-tailed Chakra on Kushina. How could the fox's chakra be on this woman? Wasn't Uzumaki Naruto made a Jinchuriki from a young age?
Byakugan!
Urashiki activated his Byakugan and indeed saw the sealed Nine-tails within Kushina, but found nothing in Uzumaki Naruto's body. He immediately realized that his intel was incorrect or he had come to the wrong time-space.
Swish!
Namikaze Minato suddenly threw a Kunai towards Otsutsuki Urashiki's face. However, when he raised his hand, Urashiki saw it and slightly tilted his head to easily dodge it.
"You and that guy from before, both like to use this move...."
Otsutsuki Urashiki mocked, then as Namikaze Minato used the Flying Thunder God Transfer to appear behind him, Urashiki suddenly turned and kicked the hand holding the Rasengan, meanwhile cutting down on Minato's other arm with the Red Light Fishing Rod.
The next second, Otsutsuki Urashiki transformed into a flock of red origami cranes scattering, and Kushina's chakra arm hit nothing but air.
Rumble!
Urashiki might have dodged, but the house couldn't. In her rage, Kushina had smashed the house to pieces.
The red origami cranes reassembled into the shape of Otsutsuki Urashiki in mid-air, who mockingly said, "My, my, no matter the fox, the temper is always so fiery...."
Swish!
Kushina and Namikaze Minato suddenly appeared atop the rubble of the house; just before it collapsed, Namikaze Minato had used the Flying Thunder God to take Kushina out.
Swish!
However, suddenly a shadow appeared beside Kushina, it was none other than Uchiha Yoichi, who had sensed the disturbance in the village and hurried over.
He had been at Konoha Hospital helping Hyuga Satomi examine her eyes, but upon sensing the explosion of Nine-tailed Chakra from Kushina, he had wrapped up there and rushed over quickly.
"Otsutsuki Urashiki?"
"You recognize me?"
Otsutsuki Urashiki, hearing the words, glanced at the conspicuous Hokage Rock and realized, "You're the village's Fifth Generation Hokage, another one who can use Space-Time Ninjutsu."
"Yoichi, Naruto is in his hands, please save Naruto!"
Kushina couldn't help but plead. Naruto was the person she cared about most right now; she absolutely didn't want to see him hurt.
Namikaze Minato also stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Fifth, let's take him on together. This guy reacts very quickly, and his Space-Time ability is very troublesome..."
"Your arm... did you just clash with him?"
Seeing that Namikaze Minato's arm showed no signs of recovery, Uchiha Yoichi understood it had been disabled by Yin-Yang Release, which nullified Reanimation Ninjutsu.
"His moves are quick, and he knows the markings of the Flying Thunder God Jutsu."
Namikaze Minato admitted, saying that earlier, this was the fastest he could go, yet the opponent still reacted in time.
"You both stand by as guards; I'll handle this guy."
Uchiha Yoichi said, then looked at Otsutsuki Urashiki, directly locking onto him with his spiritual power.
"Perception ability, huh? Hey, are you going to try and snatch back Uzumaki Naruto? Even though he doesn't have the fox within, he's still my enemy.... Hmm, how should I go about taking revenge on an enemy..."
Otsutsuki Urashiki's words were cut off by the movement from within Uchiha Yoichi.
Bang!
Chirp Chirp!
Suddenly, Otsutsuki Urashiki felt an extremely powerful chakra burst forth for an instant from within Uchiha Yoichi, then it reined in, but not completely; it continued to leak from his body.
