Hiruzen of Konoha is my father

"My lord, the elite Jonin Namikaze Minato and the elite Chuunin Sarutobi Ryu have arrived."

"Yeah, let them in"

"Really? The current battle with Kumogakure on the front line can only be anxious. What is the current main plan?" Minato looked at the map on the table with a solemn expression, looking at the densely drawn various drawings on the map. Such a mark, he asked after pondering for a while.

"The plan currently being followed can only be to continuously dispatch teams and classes to consume Kumogakure. Although the large number of manpower sent after the battlefield in Sand Ninja Village temporarily alleviated the previous dilemma, in the long run, Kumogakure will If the village and Shikoku go to war, Konoha will definitely be stronger."

"So for our side, we must end the war as soon as possible to avoid a deadlock with Kumogakure?" After listening to the commander's words, Minato was silent for a moment, and then looked at him and said.

"When will the next infiltration team set off?"

"Minato-sensei, we have just arrived here and we are going to take a rest first. Besides, the work of the infiltration team is just to fight against Kumogakure's infiltration team. With your strength, you should join the more important battlefield and bayonet team. Ah?" Long asked, looking at Minato walking in front with a strange look on his face.

"Now is not the time to rest, and the first thing you should know when arriving at a new battlefield is the enemy's forces and the surrounding terrain. This information may have miraculous effects in the subsequent battles," Minato said. As he spoke, he stopped and turned his head to look at the medical tent on the other side where there was a lot of wailing.

"Long, now I really want to end this war. I'm tired of seeing my companions and friends die one by one. I don't want to attend those funerals that I can't even count anymore. I decided For the sake of my companions, for the Leaf Village, and for the future of the ninja world, I must stand up and do my best to end this war as soon as possible. Then, when I become Hokage, I will change the ninja world that is constantly fighting for the sake of ninja. Bringing true peace to the world. This is my goal." Minato turned to face Long and told the most important thoughts in his heart word by word to this child who might have the same thoughts as him.

Long was completely shocked. He didn't expect that just a simple question would make Minato take it so seriously, and even tell him the most important goal in his heart. At this moment, Long didn't know what to say, and there was a silence between the two of them.

"Hahaha, I'm so sorry. I suddenly said these ignorant words. Don't take what I just said seriously. Just think that I said some stupid things because I have been in the battlefield for a long time." Minato suddenly laughed. He stood up, rubbing the back of his head with an embarrassed look on his face, as if what he just said was just a declaration that he had become addicted.

"Okay, it's time for us to move on. Next, we have to join the next infiltration team. We can't continue to waste time here." Looking at Minato's look of just taking him over, the shock in Long's heart gradually changed. Aan, raised his head and looked directly at Minato.

"I believe you"

"Yeah" Minato was stunned for a moment, and the hand touching the back of his head stopped, and he looked at the child who looked at him seriously with a puzzled expression.

"I believe what you say, and I also believe that there is no one more suitable to be the Hokage in Konoha than you."

Minato gradually lost the expression on his face and retracted his hand. Looking at his companion who looked trusting in him, Minato seemed to have received the belief from him in his heart, making Minato suddenly more determined towards his goal.

"Ah, thank you very much, thank you for trusting me so much." Minato smiled, turned around and continued to lead Long forward. Although the two of them had no communication on the way, Long felt that something seemed to have happened to Minato at this time. A hint of change.

"The next people are here. I heard that there are several teams on the border that are fighting Kumogakure's team. The teams currently dispatched have already sent signals of fighting." One of them is blind in one eye. The jounin waited at the entrance of the camp in advance. When he saw Minato and Long approaching quickly, he immediately greeted them and led Minato and Long to the team that had been prepared in front of the camp.

"Inuzuka and Assaulter Akimichi are responsible for sensing, and there are also two chunin responsible for ninja support. It's really a very balanced team." Long looked at the ninjas in the team with their own characteristics, and saw this team at a glance The respective work in the team has always been very high to Konoha's team editors. This kind of team with average strength can be considered a top-notch configuration in the infiltration team.

Just as Minato and Long briefly introduced themselves and were about to set off, the jounin who was leading the way reminded, "Currently on the battlefield of Kumogakure, Ai Zheng, the son of the Third Raikage, is leading his team to attack us everywhere. Be careful. That guy's speed is only inferior to that of the Third Raikage."

"Don't worry, if we encounter them, we will be prepared," Long turned around and said.

"More than that, that Ai is a very competitive person. If he met Minato, it might not be that simple."

"Are you very competitive..." Minato looked at the Jonin and murmured to himself.

"Ah, very strong," the Jonin repeated in a low voice, pointing with his right hand to his eyes that he could no longer open.

"I understand." After understanding the information, Minato turned around and led everyone, disappearing directly into the woods. The one-eyed jounin watched the figures of several people disappear slowly, and touched the scar on his face that had long since healed. He turned around and walked into the busy camp.
