"let's go!"
Chapter 33 Minato: I am the Fourth Hokage?
Loulan.
At this time, Minato Namikaze was still a young man who had not yet married.
He has a girlfriend who has a slightly hot temper and is also a Jinchūriki.
When he first showed his talent, he was already very strong, but he had not yet achieved the brilliant achievements he would later achieve. He could be considered a small winner in the first half of his life.
On the opening day of an ordinary ramen restaurant, a mysterious mission was received.
Go to a place called Loulan in the desert within the Kingdom of Wind to gather information about the mysterious puppet.
It is said that there is abnormal energy activity and puppet appearances there.
It is unclear how the Sandaime got to know this information, but he sent out an S-rank reconnaissance mission anyway.
At this time, the ninja world had already shown signs of unrest, and the atmosphere between countries was extremely tense.
After the Second Ninja World War, the period of recuperation has come to a certain point, and the outbreak of new and old grudges is just a matter of time.
As a result, the overseas reconnaissance mission was upgraded to S-level, and after saying goodbye to his beloved girlfriend, Minato set off.
It was not difficult to sneak into the Kingdom of Wind, and it was naturally even easier since he brought two very elite team members with him.
It was not until they arrived at Loulan that they discovered that this mission was indeed quite tricky.
The resources deep in the desert are very limited, and there are not many conventional building materials.
However, it is incredible that such a city with tall towers could rise from this place which was relatively backward in records.
There are so many puppets and huge alien chakra energy in the city, all of which indicate that there is a huge conspiracy here.
As they continued to explore, they discovered the abnormal movement trajectory of the autonomous puppet, as if it was chasing someone.
So I went to investigate immediately, hoping to get additional information.
There was a sharp look in Minato's blue eyes. He would not tolerate any carelessness in the enemy's lair.
The two companions behind him were also very cautious. During this period of time, there was no poor ninja level, and those who were poor were all dead.
Then a young Konoha ninja came into view shouting and screaming, dodging attacks with flirtatious and meaningless movements, while constantly attracting more troops to encircle and suppress him.
The three of them looked at each other.
"Minato, is he a Konoha ninja?!"
Minato was a little unsure.
When the Hokage entrusted him with the task, he did not mention any information about the involvement of other ninjas. So was this a bait for the enemies in the city?
But isn’t it a bit... exaggerated to use this ostentatious style as bait?
After hesitating for a moment, Minato realized that this Konoha ninja was most likely an unlucky guy who had intruded.
The Shadow Clone Technique was performed very maturely, and his tactics and actions were very reckless. His teacher must be an irresponsible person.
...Minato's idea backfired.
After Naruto graduated, his real teacher was Hatake Kakashi, Minato's direct disciple.
The most critical teacher during his growth period was Jiraiya, Minato's personal teacher.
So the truth is outrageous. Naruto's teaching was not done in the conventional ninja way.
The shadow clone's solid foundation was gained from countless experiences of being beaten up.
Maybe it was an inexplicable sense of closeness, when the other party was in danger, Minato brought his team members to the battlefield in an instant and settled everything.
Bringing this new generation of Konoha to a hidden corner.
After the other party was bandaged, he enthusiastically advised Naruto to leave Loulan immediately. He had a premonition that a high-level battle was going to take place here, and this reckless kid was not someone who could participate.
Minato Namikaze was a relatively kind person in the village, but his style of behavior in the outside world was very decisive and stern.
He did not torture Naruto, nor did he ask any further questions, but just let him leave quickly. This might be the greatest kindness he had in his heart towards the young man in front of him.
The two subordinates also recognized the captain's ability and judgment, so they acquiesced to this less rigorous behavior.
But when has Naruto ever listened to others? He decisively went to the gathering place of the puppets and saw the girl falling from the sky.
The protagonist's passive skill was triggered, and he made a brilliant appearance, caught Sarah who was pushed down, and then received two slaps.
While the two were arguing, the Konoha team arrived again.
Princess Loulan and the Konoha ninja who accidentally intervened appeared at the same time, and they had to show up again.
I originally wanted to observe the specific reasons for what happened here, but my plan was disrupted again. So I had to ask this Konoha ninja some questions. I always felt that he was not normal.
Five people gathered together in the corridor of the tower, and Sarah sat on the windowsill with a dazed look in her eyes.
She is not a fool. How could she not mind being pushed down?
"I have no idea what happened."
Naruto was completely confused. What was this golden-haired masked man talking about?
He told the three Konoha members in front of him about his mission and that he had traveled from the ruins of Loulan without any suspicion.
Even though it's ridiculous, it seems real because it's so ridiculous.
Minato inexplicably believed this. From his eyes, heartbeat, and demeanor, it can be seen that this child is not someone who is good at lying.
Besides, the chakra knife that the other party carried with him that could cut the puppet strings and the details of some items did not conform to the technology and style of this era.
And then Naruto's words "If you know anything, please tell me quickly" made Aburame Shiya and Akimichi Choza believe that this kid was not a bad person.
This guy is a fool.
How can you ask the other party about the content of their task so directly?
If he were in a fully alert wartime state, he could be killed on the spot, which would be a clear case of espionage.
After letting down their guard, the three of them took off their masks and revealed their true faces. Minato, with his golden-haired warm-hearted aura, naturally made Naruto trust him very much.
After gathering intelligence, Minato made a bold guess.
"You and Baizu both returned here from the future through time-space ninjutsu."
"It's just that he arrived in Loulan six years earlier and built this puppet city."
"Anyway, as long as we defeat the centipede, we can go back."
Minato said this with that absolutely reliable handsome face, which also boosted Naruto's confidence.
Otherwise, such things would be quite terrifying for a person in the past time and space, and there are still very important things to do in the future.
At this time, the nervous Naruto looked at Minato's face and suddenly exclaimed.
"Ah, I remember now. I think I've seen your face somewhere, brother.
It's exactly the same as the Fourth Hokage on the Hokage Rock."
???
Three faces were confused.
Aburame Shiya directly refuted this, saying that making random claims about who is the successor to Hokage is a serious crime punishable by death.
If the news were to spread back to the village, it would have a very negative impact on Minato.
So, it is still the period when the Third Hokage is in power. In the eyes of the people of Konoha, it is still too early for the Third Hokage, who is in his prime, to retire.
Chapter 34 Blood-Red Pepper vs. Golden Flash
Besides, the most likely successor now is Lord Orochimaru, the commander-in-chief of the front line, who is almost the tacit consent of all the ninjas in the village.
Although Qiu Daodingzuo looks honest, he is actually very smart.
"Don't forget that this little ghost is from the future."
This also brought Aburame Shiya back to his senses, which meant...
Does the family need to adjust the intensity of support?
And the fat guy next to him is so good at disguising himself that I forgot that none of the Pig, Deer and Butterfly trio is stupid.
It would be impossible for Minato to say that he didn't feel secretly happy at this moment.
Although the Third Generation is in his prime and Lord Orochimaru is highly renowned, who knows what will happen in the future?
But relying on his excellent character, he made Naruto stop talking. The more he knew about the future, the greater the impact it would have on the present time and space.
The golden-haired man, who is proficient in the Flying Thunder God Technique and has learned many secrets through his girlfriend, understands that the present and the future should not have too much intersection.
"who!"
Minato's expression suddenly turned cold and he raised the Flying Thunder God Kunai in his hand.
His instinct told him that a great disaster was approaching... one that was even more terrifying than encountering a tailed beast.
Aburame Shiya's parasitic bug didn't notice anything, but believed in Namikaze Minato's perception, so he formed a formation with Akimichi Choza to block Naruto and Sara.
call out!
A kunai flew over and Minato fired back.
The two missiles collided, flew backwards for dozens of times in the air, and then crashed into the ground nearby.
Only then did they see clearly that what was flying over did not seem to be an ordinary kunai.
The handle is engraved with runes, like... Flying Thunder God!
brush!
Three figures flashed in the intersection of time and space.
The red-haired woman in the middle with a fox mask made a seal with one hand, and a special ripple was generated, which covered the walls and the ground here with sealing spells.
The Konoha trio suddenly felt like they were facing a formidable enemy. What a powerful sealing technique!
Then the battle ended in an instant.
For some reason, Minato Namikaze, who had the fastest reflexes, seemed to have fallen into an illusion set by the enemy and stood frozen in place without moving.
He neither threw out his Flying Thunder God Kunai nor prepared any techniques, but just stared straight ahead.
At that moment, he looked at the red-haired masked woman with a dazed look in his eyes. The feeling that she was the most important person in his life made him dull.
In fact, I had this feeling when I looked at Naruto, but it was not as strong as when facing this woman. Is it an illusion?
Seeing the opponent coming close in an instant, the chakra fluctuations carried by his fist were definitely enough to kill someone.
Instinctively, he stretched out his hand to form a seal to cast Flying Thunder God.
...failed.
The spatial coordinates are blurred, it’s the sealing technique just now!
The opponent punched him in the stomach without caring.
Boom! ! !
The golden flash swirled and flew out, hitting the wall hard.
When Aburame Shiya and Akimichi Choza were about to help Minato resolve the crisis, two arms were placed on their shoulders, freezing their bodies.
The twisted arms can kill at any time. The enormous power and the sinister aura that penetrates into the bones make the two Konoha Jonins dare not act rashly.
"Hiss~~ You'd better not move, otherwise you will be beaten to death by her."
So fast! Who is it?
From the corner of my eye, I saw that the two of them were also frozen in place.
"Big... big... Lord Jishimaru."
This is Konoha's frontline commander. Although his attire and temperament are slightly different from the Lord Orochimaru I met before, it is definitely him.
