"It's the Flying Thunder God—"
How is that possible? How could he use the Flying Thunder God?
Minato Namikaze stared at the opponent in utter shock. It was indeed the Flying Thunder God Technique; the opponent had teleported to the Kunai he had thrown onto the wall.
However, the next second, he vanished again. The opponent had disappeared?
A feeling of extreme danger washed over Minato Namikaze. Without thinking, he instinctively activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, instantly moving to another location. Just as he left, Uchiha Nagi's blade sliced down where he had been standing.
"It's the Kunai I'm carrying..."
Minato gave a wry smile. After a brief thought, he understood. He hadn't expected the three-pronged Kunai in his Ninja pouch to become the coordinates for the opponent's Flying Thunder God.
Uchiha Nagi wouldn't wait for him to speak. The next second, he activated Flying Thunder God again, instantly moving behind Minato Namikaze and slashing down with his blade. This time, however, Minato blocked it with a Kunai.
"Heh heh, not bad, right? Don't you like to teleport behind others and stab them? How does it feel to have someone teleport behind you—" Uchiha Nagi said with a grin.
After learning the Flying Thunder God, Minato Namikaze never thought of modifying the jutsu formula on it. That's why the Second Hokage and he could share the same jutsu formula for their Flying Thunder God Kunai. The reason was that no third person had learned the spatial Ninjutsu. He never expected to be defeated by Uchiha Nagi today.
Uchiha Nagi's Mangekyo Sharingan, [which sees through and analyzes the laws governing the movement of things], could be called weak, yet its power was limitlessly strong.
After analyzing the jutsu formula on the Flying Thunder God Kunai and observing Minato Namikaze's several teleportations, his copying proficiency had directly risen from ten percent to one hundred percent.
Compared to Ninjutsu like Shikotsumyaku, which required a bloodline to activate, this spatial Ninjutsu, reputed to be the most difficult in the Ninja World, had no bloodline requirements and was unexpectedly easy to copy.
However, after an initial moment of panic, Minato Namikaze quickly calmed down. He threw most of his Flying Thunder God Kunai into various corners.
Then, Akimichi Choza and Shibi Aburame witnessed an incredible sight.
Two figures, one with golden hair like a golden flash, the other with black hair like a black lightning bolt, flashed back and forth within the tall buildings of the Rouran Country.
One second they would flash here and clash blades, the next they would flash there and exchange punches and kicks.
Finally, in a flurry of sparks, Uchiha Nagi gained the upper hand in one exchange. Minato Namikaze's mask and hair were sliced off by his nichirin blade and fell to the ground.
Minato Namikaze then used the Body Flicker Technique to leap to an open space where there were no Flying Thunder God Kunai.
"What? Giving up? Or don't want to fight anymore?" Uchiha Nagi smiled, his Mangekyo active. His dynamic vision was stronger than Minato's, and he also possessed the Flying Thunder God. It would be too embarrassing to lose to him now.
Minato Namikaze smiled, "The pursuers are coming soon. Let's decide the winner in one move, regardless of who wins or loses—"
Immediately, he began forming another Rasengan in his hand, though this one was much larger... "Great Ball Rasengan—"
Uchiha Nagi, who had never fought so exhilaratingly before, also wanted to end this battle. Ultimately, he only hated Danzo and the Sandaime. He hadn't reached the point where he absolutely had to kill Minato, and it was uncertain who would kill whom. Don't forget, the opponent still had the Reaper Death Seal... "Phew... Sun Breathing, Third Form: Blazing Crimson Mirror—"
Out of respect for his opponent, Uchiha Nagi unleashed his strongest Breathing Technique, the Sun Breathing. Its power was incomparable to the ordinary Breathing Techniques. Using only one move, rather than too many for too long, meant the subsequent side effects would be negligible for him.
He then unleashed a deep crimson, arc-shaped horizontal slash directly towards Minato Namikaze's Great Ball Rasengan. Before leaving, he silently scanned his surroundings; there were no Flying Thunder God Kunai, so he didn't have to worry about this guy flying behind him for a sneak attack, like he did with Obito.
Just as their ultimate moves, a blazing blade and a giant blue orb, were about to collide, Minato suddenly vanished from in front of Uchiha Nagi. Then, the next second, a Great Ball Rasengan slammed heavily into his back.
Uchiha Nagi: "⊙ ﹏ ⊙?!"
How did he get behind him? There were clearly no Flying Thunder God Kunai around here!
A huge explosion kicked up a large cloud of dust. Minato wiped sweat from his brow, looking extremely exhausted. He didn't have the Mangekyo Sharingan. The super-high-speed teleportation required him to be incredibly focused with his eyes and perception. So, even though their teleportation only lasted a short while, it was extremely draining for him.
Previously, he had never imagined that fighting someone who could use Flying Thunder God would be so disgusting. Now he finally understood... What was even more disgusting was that the opponent shared the same Flying Thunder God spatial jutsu formula as him. No, when he returned, he absolutely had to modify the Second Hokage's jutsu formula and replace it with his own exclusive one.
"Minato, are you alright? Is he dead?"
Akimichi Choza and Shibi Aburame also rushed over, standing by Minato Namikaze's side, asking with concern.
"I'm fine. Don't be careless, he's not dead..."
Clap, clap, clap—
A round of applause echoed from the smoke, followed by a half-mask, which had just been sliced in two by Uchiha Nagi, being thrown out.
"Flying Thunder God, Second Step. As expected of Minato Namikaze, secretly engraving the Flying Thunder God's jutsu formula into his mask, then deliberately losing to me by half a move, allowing the mask to be cut and fall to the ground."
Uchiha Nagi patted the dust off his body and walked out, his body surrounded by a Chakra skeleton, the Uchiha Clan's absolute defense, Susanoo—
However, the power of the Great Ball Rasengan was also immense, directly smashing a large number of cracks into the skeletal Susanoo.
Crack, crack—
A dense swarm of puppets descended from the building, not forgetting to fire Chakra cannons... Uchiha Nagi looked at the puppet army, knowing it was time to end this. "Today's match, I lost. The next time we meet, I won't lose to you."
He turned and used the Body Flicker Technique to leave, but before he left, he uttered a sentence that shocked all three of them... "I forgot there won't be a next time, Minato Namikaze. If you don't want to die with your wife on the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox's attack, then work hard to change history, hahahaha..."
Just as Uchiha Nagi left, a large number of puppets swarmed in.
These weren't ordinary puppets like Kankuro's or Sasori's. Because they had an infinite supply of Chakra as energy, Mukade had equipped all these puppets with Chakra cannons—
Uchiha Nagi walked away in a cheerful mood. As for the conflicted Minato Namikaze, whether he would seal his own memories, or keep them to change history because of his words, it had nothing to do with him.
Change history? Let the floods rage, what does it have to do with me? Your and your wife's lives are for you to decide—
At the same time, it was also an experiment he wanted to conduct, because the later stages of Naruto were ruined with the release of Boruto.
And in Boruto, time travel became as simple as eating, and spatial Ninjutsu directly became rampant. What was even more outrageous was that an Ōtsutsuki named Urashiki, who wanted to go back in time to kill Naruto, was instantly defeated by Naruto in his Ichibi Tailed Beast Cloak mode... Unbelievable. An Ōtsutsuki who could activate the Rinnegan was instantly defeated by the main world's Naruto in his one-tailed Nine-Tailed mode.
How weak must the people of the future world be? Uchiha Nagi thought for a long time and still felt that the possibility of a parallel world was higher, because the later stages were world-destroying, and it was impossible for them to become weak chickens just because they had a bunch of children.
One can only say that the people in Boruto's world were originally that strong, and then when they came to the main world, they were beaten like dogs... However, that time machine that could travel through time was quite interesting. A turtle, with an unknown structure, surprisingly had such immense energy to transport people through time.
One must know that the Ryūmyaku was sealed by Minato Namikaze for over a decade, and the accumulated energy only allowed for one round trip through time.
Uchiha Nagi, walking back to rendezvous with Kimimaro and Yukihime, was also thinking about the Ryūmyaku. Mukade traveled six years ago, but it took him a full six years to absorb the power of the Ryūmyaku into his body.
However, once the Ryūmyaku was severed by Sara, he immediately became like a rootless plant and withered. This meant that the power of the Ryūmyaku could be used, but... Shaking his head, Uchiha Nagi didn't want to spend his entire life as a mountain king in Rouran.
If he couldn't leave Rouran, what good was infinite Chakra? He would just be a prisoner.
But to capture a Tailed Beast and seal it within his body, Uchiha Nagi shook his head again. He didn't like having an intelligent creature confined within his body. Otherwise, wouldn't it secretly watch him and his girlfriend play poker someday?
Moreover, Black Zetsu, Nagato, and their group would definitely collect Tailed Beasts. He wasn't very confident facing Nagato, even if it was an exhausted Nagato, his Rinnegan was truly powerful.
The Rinnegan was the pinnacle of combat power in this world, and he was still too far from the Rinnegan.
"Speaking of which, I wonder if I can copy the power of the Rinnegan..." Uchiha Nagi touched his eyes. If he could copy Nagato's Rinnegan Six Paths abilities, that would be heaven-defying... However, based on his deduction, it might be similar to Shikotsumyaku; even if he copied the Six Paths abilities, he wouldn't be able to use those techniques without the Rinnegan.
"Oh, you're back. Are you alright? We heard a loud battle just now. Were you fighting someone?"
In a civilian house, Yukihime and Kimimaro looked at the disheveled Uchiha Nagi with concern.
"I'm fine. Although I'm a bit disheveled, I didn't suffer any injuries—" Uchiha Nagi smiled. On the contrary, Minato Namikaze had a cut on his shoulder from him.
Moreover, his Flying Thunder God, which he relied on for survival, was stripped bare, with not even his underwear left. He even copied Flying Thunder God, Second Step. That old sneaky bastard, bah—
He said it would be a frontal confrontation, yet he secretly added a Flying Thunder God, Second Step spatial jutsu formula inside his mask. If he hadn't prepared Susanoo as a defense earlier, that Great Ball Rasengan might have taken half his life.
No, it might even have killed him on the spot.
"It's already late. Let's rest for the night and set off tomorrow." Uchiha Nagi looked at the time outside; it was already dark.
Tomorrow, he would kill Mukade, preventing him from further imprisoning the power of the Ryūmyaku, and the rejection of time would naturally send them back to their own world.
