Naruto Dream Fulfillment Master

His pupils suddenly contracted, his smile vanished, and an expression of rare anger appeared on his face.

"Is this your real purpose?!"

Minato let out a rare low growl, his voice trembling slightly with anger.

The masked man laughed loudly, his voice filled with smugness: "Hahahaha! It doesn't feel good to have all your efforts wasted, does it, Minato Namikaze—"

His single eye glowed eerily red behind the mask, and his voice suddenly turned chilling and piercing: "Prepare for the coming of war!!"

auditorium.

"war…?"

Sakura shuddered upon hearing the masked man's final declaration, his face turning deathly pale. "What... what is this war he's talking about? Are there other enemies?!"

[Ding! Sakura Haruno's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +200!]

Naruto was equally confused, scratching his head in bewilderment: "Why is Father suddenly so angry? Didn't they already win?"

The boy stared intently at his father's furious expression on the screen, feeling a vague unease, yet unable to pinpoint the reason.

Jiraiya slowly withdrew his gaze, let out a long sigh, his face full of regret and heaviness: "What a pity... Minato's painstaking efforts."

His sudden remark startled Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura. The three of them looked at Jiraiya in unison, clearly not understanding why he had suddenly uttered such a remark.

Jiraiya paused for a moment, then pointed to the Konoha training grounds on the screen, now a scene of carnage, and explained in a low voice, "Think about it, this Chunin Exam in the dream was a grand event jointly organized by the five great nations."

Sasuke nodded in agreement: "Yes! It's incredible that rookie ninjas from five villages have the chance to compete against each other this time!"

"That's exactly why..."

Jiraiya gave a wry smile and shook his head, saying, "In the present day, such a scene of the five Kage on the same stage is almost impossible to happen."

"After the three Shinobi World Wars, the five great nations had too deep a blood feud with each other."

"Minato's efforts and dedication to getting the five great nations to jointly host this Chunin Exams probably exceed your imagination."

Upon hearing this, Sasuke nodded as if he understood, a sense of foreboding creeping into his heart.

He looked at Jiraiya and asked in a low voice, "Does Senior mean... that this incident will ruin this hard-won cooperation?"

A hint of sadness flashed in Jiraiya's eyes as he slowly said, "That's right. The reason that guy used the word 'war' is precisely because he successfully sowed discord and destroyed the hard-won trust in this alliance."

"Look, the two villages of Kirigakure and Sunagakure joined forces to disrupt the situation during the exams, but not only did they fail to seriously damage Konoha, they were easily dealt with by Minato and his group. In addition, the abilities that Minato and his wife just displayed allowed them to suppress the out-of-control tailed beasts in no time... The strength that Konoha has shown this time is simply too great."

"Isn't being strong a good thing?" Sakura asked, puzzled. "Wouldn't that make everyone feel more at ease? Why would it lead to war?"

Jiraiya sighed with a wry smile, "Sometimes, being too powerful is a sin... The taller Konoha grows, the more of a threat it becomes in the eyes of other villages. When one village becomes dominant, the others have no choice but to join forces to bring it down, unless..."

Unless Konoha produces another Hashirama Senju.

on the screen.

As the masked man and Payne assumed their fighting stances once more, the atmosphere in the training ground suddenly froze, becoming deathly silent.

Seeing this, Minato Namikaze knew that the situation was extremely critical.

Minato Namikaze took a deep breath, then suddenly raised his voice and gave the order: "Kakashi! Take Naruto and Kushina and get out of here immediately!"

Kakashi stiffened at the sound of the voice and immediately nodded in understanding: "Yes!"

He also keenly sensed the strange shift in the atmosphere at the scene—

Without the slightest hesitation, Kakashi immediately rushed to Kushina and Naruto's side and called out, "Let's go!"

"No!" Kushina's expression changed, and she instinctively refused. "Minato is still here, how can we leave him alone..."

Minato's expression showed a slight struggle, but he quickly regained the resoluteness and composure of a Hokage.

He turned around and gave his wife and children a reassuring smile: "Don't worry about me. I'm the Hokage, I'm not so easy to capture."

"If you stay here, I won't be able to act freely. Listen to me, retreat first, and wait for me in a safe place!"

Kushina's red hair flew wildly as she bit her lower lip tightly.

She longed to stay and fight alongside her husband, but seeing the resolute look in Minato's eyes, she finally nodded and said in a hoarse voice, "...Alright. But you must come back safely!"

Minato smiled and nodded: "I promise."

After saying that, he looked at Kakashi, solemnly entrusting his wife and children to his former student, and smiled bitterly: "Kakashi, they... I have to ask you for help again!"

Kakashi felt a jolt in his heart, and his eyes welled up with tears.

He nodded solemnly: "Mr. Minato, please rest assured! I will definitely protect them!"

Having received the promise, Minato finally felt relieved and waved his hand sharply: "Go quickly!"

Kakashi didn't dare to delay. Together with several Anbu members, he immediately escorted Kushina and Naruto towards the exit of the training ground.

Just as several figures reached the entrance to the training ground, a short figure suddenly blocked their way.

"Lord Tsuchikage?!" Kakashi's pupils contracted, and he immediately stopped.

Blocking the exit was none other than Onoki, the Third Tsuchikage of the Land of Earth.

His short, hunched body was now suspended in mid-air, his arms crossed over his chest, his face cold and stern.

"You can leave if you want!" Onoki narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on the unconscious red-haired boy on Kakashi's shoulder. "Leave the Sand Village's Jinchuriki behind."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi frowned, about to retort.

Unexpectedly, Minato Namikaze issued the order directly.

"Kakashi! Do as he says—hand Gaara over to them. Take Kushina and Naruto away immediately!"

Kakashi was startled.

He understood that the situation was critical and that Minato-sensei had his reasons for making concessions.

Without further hesitation, Kakashi took a deep breath and slowly handed Gaara over his shoulder: "...Understood."

Onoki snorted coldly, flew a few steps closer, grabbed the unconscious Gaara, and examined him closely before making way for him: "Hmph, you know what's good for you."

Kakashi dared not say anything, and could only quickly help Kushina and run past him with Naruto.

Minato Namikaze stood still, speaking in a deep voice to Onoki: "Tsuchikage, Konoha has never harbored any ambition to seize the tailed beasts of other villages. Kushina and I were able to control the tailed beasts only because—"

Onoki raised an eyebrow and coldly remarked, "Konoha didn't want to get their hands on the Tailed Beasts? Then can the Hokage explain why you and your wife dealt with the rampaging Tailed Beasts so easily?"

Before he could finish speaking, Kakashi and the others had already rushed out of the training ground.

Kakashi didn't hear what was said after that; he had already left with Kushina and Naruto.

Teacher Minato asked him to protect the two of them, so he naturally had to ensure their safety.

The most urgent task now is to get Kushina and Naruto to an emergency shelter.

Kakashi involuntarily turned around and looked back, his expression full of worry: "Minato-sensei... will he really be alright? There are still two Kage-level shinobi inside..."

The high walls blocked his view; he could only see the hazy smoke and dust in the sky and could not hear anything happening inside the arena.

"Minato is so strong, he'll definitely be alright, right?" Kushina forced a smile, comforting herself as if talking to herself.

But her hand, which was holding Naruto's, was trembling slightly, revealing her inner nervousness.

Kakashi was silent for two seconds before speaking to comfort them, "Don't worry. If the two Kage really intended to make a move, they would have already done so... They are wary of Minato-sensei's strength and certainly wouldn't dare to act recklessly."

As soon as the words fell——

boom! !

A deafening roar was followed by a violent explosion from afar.

The earth trembled slightly, and thick smoke and shockwaves shot into the sky. Even the surrounding streets could feel the powerful airflow rushing towards them!

At this point, they no longer had time to concern themselves with the battle on the field—

As far as the eye could see, Konoha Village was also engulfed in war and smoke!

The unrest caused by the remnants of Kirigakure and Sunagakure has not yet been completely quelled, in addition to the Akatsuki members who have just arrived to provide support.

Throughout the village, shouts of killing and explosions rose and fell.

Two giants appeared on each of the east and west sides of the village, and they were fighting with people.

The one to the east was enveloped in a faint, emerald-green light, its outline resembling a giant warrior wielding a longsword.

He recognized it at a glance—it was Shisui's "Susanoo"!

To the west, there was another giant, similar in appearance, but black in color, and equally exuding a powerful aura that was terrifying.

Kakashi squinted to take a closer look, but found that he had never seen the black giant's appearance or moves before, and for a moment he couldn't help but feel puzzled.

When did another Susanoo appear in the village?

Before he could think it through, something strange happened again in the south—

A huge, semi-transparent purple barrier rose up from nowhere!

Kushina exclaimed, "That's the direction of the shelter!"

Kakashi felt a sudden tightness in his chest, and cold sweat instantly soaked his back.

Is that the direction of the emergency shelter where the villagers are located?

Does the enemy intend to spare even civilians?!

in the audience.

Naruto clenched his fists, staring intently at the image projected onto the training field in the distance, his expression full of worry.

His father was facing the combined attack of the two powerful figures, the Tsuchikage and the Raikage, alone. But what shocked Naruto the most was the man standing in the shadows wearing a black vortex mask.

[Ding! Naruto's emotional fluctuations have been detected! Emotional value +400!]

In reality, this mysterious masked man had personally caused the deaths of his parents. Now, a similar scene reappeared in his dream, casting a shadow over Naruto's heart.

"Kid, don't worry too much."

A warm, large hand landed on Naruto's head and patted it gently.

It's rare for Jiraiya to be serious.
