Chapter 658: Minato’s Still Cunning!
(What did he say? This Fourth Hokage says he wants the Ōtsutsuki Clan’s secret Kama technique?)
(Is he insane?)
A technique as advanced as controlled nuclear fusion—even if handed to natives, they couldn’t use it!
Kama was designed specifically for Ōtsutsuki genes, like the Ten-Tails. Without mastering the foundational technology, outsiders couldn’t wield it! No matter how genius some ninja world natives were, they couldn’t crack it!
More critically, if the main clan learned he’d surrendered the Ōtsutsuki’s highest secret technique, clan rules would ensure his death!
No one could escape the main clan’s pursuit and execution!
Instantly, Isshiki couldn’t help but blanch, his heart gripped by a dilemma.
"No way!"
"Pick something else—Kama’s absolutely off-limits!" Isshiki roared hysterically, devoid of elegance. Facing death, how could he stay refined?
"I only want this technique; otherwise, no deal. At worst, you slaughter all of Konoha’s ninjas, and I’ll wait for you to die. After all, I’ve already moved my kin elsewhere..."
Minato didn’t yield, responding firmly with an aura of confidence, as if he’d act if Isshiki refused. At worst, his side’s loss wouldn’t cost his life.
But for Isshiki, refusing the trade meant only one path: death.
