Hokage: I Am an Uchiha with the Power to Extract Entries

As the elite among elites, even at this moment, Minato Namikaze was shocked by his disciple's strength. However, he did not forget the purpose of his mission.

He immediately asked, "We just defeated a powerful enemy. Can you still carry out the mission?"

"Teacher Minato, how is the situation on the front line?" Yuma, the captain of the bridge bombing mission, stood up and, instead of responding directly, asked a counter-question.

Hearing this, Minato raised his eyebrows. "After my arrival, even when facing the Third Tsuchikage, the camp has stabilized."

Upon hearing this, Yuma lowered his eyelids slightly and said, "Then, when you return, let's raid the Iwagakure camp.

In my perception, within the Hidden Rock Camp a hundred kilometers away, an immensely powerful chakra, accompanied by many ninjas, is heading toward the site of my battle."

Minato immediately had an idea. "That chakra must belong to the Third Tsuchikage, Ohnoki!" His expression brightened as he continued, "While their high-ranking combat forces are away, I will go back and raid their camp. Meanwhile, you investigate the traces of your battle with Uchiha Madara."

"Exactly. This will also allow me to blow up the Kannabi Bridge with ease." Seeing that Minato's thoughts aligned with his own, Uchiha Yuma nodded in agreement.

"Then proceed with your mission. I'll return to the camp and discuss the next steps with Lord Shikaku."

"No problem, Minato-sensei!"

Ohnoki arrived at the chaotic battlefield where Yuma and Madara had clashed. With a look of horror, he slowly descended from the sky.

As the wielder of the Dust Release, Ohnoki had an in-depth understanding of chakra properties. While his range of chakra perception wasn't as extensive as a sensory ninja's, his ability to analyze it at close range was superior.

He reached down and touched the ground beneath him. After a moment of contemplation, he grimly examined the massive footprints that looked as if they had been left by giants.

At this moment, he had a clear judgment in his mind—

The battlefield was completely ravaged, as though a fight between titans had taken place.

"Both of them used Susanoo..." Ohnoki muttered to himself as he gazed into the distant sky. "One of them is definitely Uchiha Yuma... but who was the other?"

After pondering for a long time, Ohnoki couldn't determine the answer. But he knew one thing for certain: both were Uchiha.

With the pride of their clan, they wouldn't have cared about Iwagakure. However, Uchiha Yuma was a real threat.

A mere teenager had already—

Achieved full mastery of Susanoo and left a battlefield in ruins.

What would he become in the future?

Right now, Ohnoki's mind was flooded with thoughts of assassinating Uchiha Yuma.

But after a long deliberation, he was forced to abandon the idea in frustration.

This Uchiha prodigy had made a name for himself throughout the ninja world in just a year. He was no longer just a so-called genius—

He was a monster who had fully realized his potential!

The thought of such an Uchiha monster rising within Konoha made Ohnoki's heart tighten.

Just then, an Iwagakure ninja rushed over, looking panicked.

"Lord Tsuchikage, terrible news!"

Ohnoki shot him a sharp glare. This was a ninja skilled in summoning for communication. Seeing his anxious expression, Ohnoki knew the news must be dire.

"Speak! What happened?" Ohnoki demanded coldly.

"Lord Tsuchikage, the Kannabi Bridge has been destroyed!" The messenger ninja bowed and hurriedly reported, "Also... Namikaze Minato led Konoha forces in an attack on our camp. We've suffered massive casualties!"

"What?!" Ohnoki's face twisted in disbelief.

After a brief hesitation, he quickly reacted and shouted, "Return to the camp immediately! We cannot let Konoha push the battlefront into the Land of Earth!"

"Yes, Lord Tsuchikage!"

With the Kannabi Bridge destroyed and Iwagakure's frontline camp in disarray, Konoha's victory came swiftly.

As news of Konoha's triumph spread across the ninja world, the five great villages were shaken to their core.

The remaining four villages grew uneasy, knowing that if Konoha solidified its position here, they could pick off the others one by one.

There was no doubt—

Konoha, situated in the wealthiest nation and possessing the most abundant human resources, had the power and depth to drive the other villages to madness.

As key figures in this decisive victory, the names of Namikaze Minato and his disciple, Uchiha Yuma, once again resounded throughout the world!

However, within Konoha itself, the reaction was different.

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen sat with a serious expression, flanked by Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado.

Aside from Danzo, who was still reflecting on his previous actions, the two elders were giving Hiruzen grim looks.

"Hiruzen... Yuma's report truly shocked me..." Koharu hesitated. "Should we... go check the sealed experiment room of our teacher?"

"Exactly!" Mitokado added urgently. "Whether Uchiha Madara is alive or not is too grave of a matter. We must verify it!"

Hearing this, Hiruzen chuckled inwardly.

These two, like Danzo, harbored disdain for the Uchiha. Though not as extreme, they avoided the Hokage's office whenever good news about Yuma surfaced.

They tried to ignore the growing power of an Uchiha rising within Konoha's ranks.

But now, with the mere possibility of Madara's survival, their attitudes had shifted entirely.

They weren't just prejudiced against Uchiha.

They feared them.

Despite this, Hiruzen took the situation seriously. After taking a puff from his pipe, he agreed, "Alright! Let's go take a look."

The three of them made their way to a sealed laboratory.

Upon opening the chamber—

"Why is it gone?!"

"Yes! When we sealed Tobirama-sensei's laboratory, we confirmed Madara's body was always here!"

Hiruzen looked at the empty chamber with an uneasy expression.

After a moment of silence, he sighed. "Summon Yuma back to Konoha... I want him to give us a full account of Uchiha Madara."

Right now, Hiruzen's emotions were complex.

Recalling Yuma was necessary—

First, because of the looming threat of Madara. As someone who had witnessed the legendary conflict between Hashirama and Madara, Hiruzen knew the devastation Madara could bring.

Even if he was old, he was still Uchiha Madara.

According to Yuma's report, Madara had used a colossal Susanoo, meaning he was still capable of leveling an entire village.

Worse, he was not just any enemy.

He was a Konoha founder who now bore a deep hatred for the village.

Secondly, Hiruzen needed to assess Uchiha Yuma's mindset.

Power without a stable will was dangerous.

Meanwhile, far from Konoha's camp, Yuma sat cross-legged atop a tree.

Silently, he took stock of everything he had gained from this battle.
