Konoha's Wooden Reappearance

Soon, on the third day after the Night of the Kyuubi, the Jounin Conference of Konoha was held under the auspices of Nara Shikaku.

At the meeting, the third generation Hokage chose to re-emerge as Hokage as the transitional Hokage between the fifth generation Hokage.This proposal was approved by the vast majority of Konoha jounin.

Danzo originally intended to be the fifth Hokage, but when asked where he was on the night of the Nine-Tails, he was speechless and unable to give a reasonable explanation, which aroused great resistance and hatred among the Jounin community in Konoha. dissatisfied.

On the fourth day after the Night of the Kyuubi, Minato finally "awoke". Due to his physical condition and the previous Kyuubi chakra, his injuries had healed greatly.

I can now move freely in a small area.

It was under this circumstance that Hiruzen Sarutobi and Minama, who had regained the position of Hokage, met for the first time after the Night of the Nine-Tails.

Konoha temporary hospital, a single room.

Mizama was sitting blankly on the hospital bed, looking into the distance with dull eyes.

In fact, I was just thinking about where to go in the future after obtaining the memory of the past life, and the possible reactions of Konoha's top brass.

The Third Hokage came in and saw this situation, thinking that Minazama was still immersed in the pain of losing his loved one and couldn't extricate himself.

He gathered his mood and entered the room to say hello, pretending to be happy.

"Hey, Mizama, it seems that your body is recovering well, so I feel relieved."

He hoped that a more relaxed atmosphere could ease Mizama's inner sadness.

"Well, Third Generation-sama, your health is almost better now, and you feel more powerful than before."

Minama turned around and looked at the approaching Third Hokage. He lowered his head deeply and did not look at the Third Hokage, fearing that his eyes would betray his true thoughts.

He just replied in a calm tone.

"The Yondaime, I'm really sorry that I couldn't help with Kushina's matter." The Third Hokage said guiltily.

"Sandaime-sama, please don't say that. For Naruto's sake, Biwako-sama..., in my heart I only feel grateful to the Sandaime-sama and the guilt that has caused Biwako-sama." Minama also lowered his head apologetically. said.

"Whether it is the Yondaime, Kushina, or Lake Biwa, they are all ninjas who inherited the will of fire and sacrificed themselves for the village. As relatives, we can only inherit their legacy and protect it better. Konoha."

"Yes, my dead relatives can no longer come back. I can only protect the living ones. Under the current situation, there is no time to grieve. I still have Naruto to take care of."

"Well, if you think so, I'm relieved.

I came here this time to talk to you about some questions, and I hope you can answer me truthfully.

Don't worry, today's conversation is only known to you and me. I have asked the ANBU to open a barrier in this room, so nothing will be spread out. "

Sandai suddenly said solemnly.

Minama knew that today's main event was coming. The future situation of himself and Naruto in Konoha would probably depend on whether the outcome of today's talks would satisfy Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Well, Mr. Third, I happen to have something I want to talk to Mr. Third, about my father's last words."

Shuijian said pretending to be cheerful.

"What did Minato say as his last words?"

Sarutobi thought that Minato wouldn't have the chance to tell him what happened to him that night, but he didn't expect that he would tell the child.

"My father asked me to tell the Third Generation that a masked man attacked that cave that night.

Before the attack, he did not receive any warning. Judging from some subsequent situations, that person was well aware of all the protective measures taken by Konoha that night.

Moreover, he knew the information about everyone involved in the ANBU and his father himself. This information was only known to the top management of Konoha, so his father suspected that someone in the top management had betrayed him and deliberately leaked the information.

He believed that except for the third generation, the other three senior officials were suspected.

So he asked me to remind the third generation of adults to be extremely careful and take precautions. "

Mizama spoke straightforwardly without any emotion, as if these words were not his.

"Why did Minato really say that?" Sandai asked in shock.

At the same time, what I was thinking was, "I'm afraid Minato was probably suspected of even me at that time, but the murder of Lake Biwa later relieved him of his suspicions."

"Well, my father also said that the person who attacked him called himself Uchiha Madara. He possesses wood escape and a Mangekyō Sharingan. My father analyzed that he should not be a member of the current Konoha Uchiha clan.

Because there is currently no one in the Uchiha clan who has such skill, let alone a master who has the first generation of wood escape.

His Sharingan ability makes him immune to physical attacks, but his attacks only materialize when he strikes.In other words, if you want to defeat him, you can only aim at the moment when each other attacks and kills each other.

He has a deep hatred for Konoha. Any current protective measures in Konoha are ineffective in front of him. His target is Kyuubi.

His father said that he was lucky enough to win against him while the other party didn't know the information about Flying Thunder God's second section.

Although he was seriously injured, it was not fatal. This person would come back sooner or later. His father asked the Third Generation to make preparations in advance, otherwise Konoha may be destroyed in the hands of this person. "

Shuijian still said that way, unnaturally wanting to laugh in his heart to see if I don't scare you to death.

After hearing this, Sandai's heart could no longer be described as shocked. It must have set off a stormy sea, and he could only feel cold sweat breaking out on his back.

"Even the Wood Release Master has the Mangekyou Sharingan. It's already difficult to deal with one alone, let alone two. Did Minato fight against such an enemy that night and beat them back? If he had known, he would have to protect himself no matter what. The sewer gate."

Countless thoughts flashed through Sarutobi's mind.

The fear that man brought to him and Konoha has always been lingering, and it has been their lifelong nightmare.

"What you said is so important. You must keep it a secret and don't tell others. Otherwise, I don't know what consequences it will cause in Konoha."

Sandai was panicking in his heart, but calmly warned him on his face.At the same time, I am very glad that I opened the barrier before entering.

"At the same time, I also want to tell you some good news. After previous tests, you have awakened the Mudun that only the first generation of adults can have, and you awakened it completely on your own. You did not transplant the cells of the first generation of adults.

You should be able to feel that power too.So what I want to ask is, how did you awaken?"

The Third Hokage asked slowly.

"Mudun, what is Mudun? It's the one that the masked man has.

I don’t know, but starting from about the age of five, I discovered that my chakra could speed up the growth of small potted plants around me.

I thought this was something that all chakras had, so I didn't take it to heart and didn't tell others.

This is the ability of Mu Dun."

Mizama still lowered his head and responded in a low voice.

"The First Master relied on his secret technique of Wood Release to calm down the chaos of the Warring States Period and create Konoha, so you should understand the power of Wood Release.

After our testing, your cell activity is about 50.00% of that of the first generation. It is estimated that it should reach 70.00% after adulthood. This means that you are likely to be able to exert [-]% of the power of the first generation.

Whether it is Wood Release that can help Naruto better suppress the tailed beasts, or it can fight against the masked man's invasion of Konoha, your Wood Release is crucial to Konoha.

Therefore, I would like to invite you to join my direct ANBU, and let me personally teach you, at least to enable you to fully master Mudun.

Don't worry, the people who know about this are all my subordinates for many years, and they are absolutely loyal and trustworthy. I have put a curse on their tongues, so they can't tell them.

And I have personally destroyed all your tissue samples and cells.

I hope you can exist as a trump card for Konoha.

When the village needs you one day, use your abilities to protect the village. "

Sarutobi said calmly and sincerely.

"Protect the village like my father did. This is also the wish of my parents. I am willing to follow their wishes, inherit the will of fire, protect the village, and protect Naruto."

Mizama raised his head, looked at the Third Hokage with very firm eyes and said.

After listening to Shuijian's words, Sandai felt happy.It takes no effort at all.

"Then what does Lord Naruto III plan to do?"

After Minazama paused for a while, he seemed to think of Naruto and asked.

"I will declare him an orphan and take Kushina's last name when he grows up.

I originally planned to let you or I raise him personally, but I'm afraid that can't be done now.

You can only put him in a suitable orphanage to raise him first, and when you are strong enough, you can take him back to your side and raise him yourself.

Before this, you can visit him often, but it is best not to meet him.

I will arrange for elite ANBU to protect him 24 hours a day.

Mizama, you can understand my painstaking efforts. "

"Uzumaki Naruto, no matter what Naruto's last name is, he is the son of his father and mother, my brother, we don't mind this.

I can understand why I'm not allowed to raise him. My father killed too many people during the Second Ninja War and the Third Ninja War. Now I don't have the ability to protect myself and Naruto, so I can't be discovered by others. relationship with him.

As long as I can watch him from a distance and know that he is growing up healthily and happily.

I believe that with the help of Mr. Sandai, I will soon become stronger and bring him back.

The third generation cannot raise him personally, probably because of the objections of the other three senior executives.

The Third Generation did all this for the good of me and Naruto, I understand.

But if you choose to raise Naruto in an orphanage, I hope Sandai can consider Yakushi Nonou's orphanage.

I heard her father talk about her before, and he had a very good impression of her. He said that she was also an orphan when she was a child, and he could relate to her the most.

She is a truly good person to children.

Only such people are suitable to raise Naruto.

Also, what I want to ask is how the Third Generation plans to deal with the Jinchuriki problem in the future."

"Do you have any good suggestions?" the Third Hokage asked.

Sarutobi Hiruzen seemed to have gotten to know Mizama again today. He thought it would take a lot of time to discuss these issues with Mizama, but he was already prepared.

Unexpectedly, Mizama could think so clearly and consider these issues completely from the perspective of the village and the Hokage.

This made him feel that it might be the death of his parents that made him mature prematurely. At the same time, he also felt some blame for himself, so he was willing to listen to what Mizama had to say.

"I think that the previous war and the Nine-Tails Rebellion have probably severely damaged Konoha's vitality. At this time, there are also undercurrents inside and outside the village, and Konoha needs a jinchuriki so much.

So I hope that the Third Generation can announce that my father sealed the Kyuubi inside my body.

The advantage of this is that it can let other countries know that the Jinchuuriki of Konoha are still there. Although they are young, they are also members of the Uzumaki clan.

Once they are cornered, it is not impossible to be forced into the battlefield. Let them use the enemy's weapon to prevent them from going too far and act as a deterrent.

Internally, I'm afraid it will take three generations of adults to handle it.

There is also a bit of selfishness on my part. I hope that Naruto can have a happy childhood. As for the fear, resentment, even hostility and indifference caused by the Kyuubi in the village, I am responsible for it alone. This is also my responsibility. The responsibility of being an older brother.

Naruto is still too young and innocent. He shouldn't have to bear this. He just needs to grow up happily. This is also the wish of his father and mother. "

"This is certainly good, but there is no Kyuubi in your body."

"My father gave me some Nine-Tails chakra to save me, and there is still a little bit left in my body.

There is no problem in a short period of time, as long as you make various preparations and don't let others see the flaws.

As long as I hide this for a while, and wait until Naruto grows up a little, I can take out some chakra from the nine tails. Judging from the nine tails' mentality of fearing that Konoha will not be in chaos, it will be happy to give some chakra to corrupt me. Mind.

Or just take away part of the Nine-Tails chakra while Naruto is going berserk.Of course I don't want this to happen.

Then at a suitable opportunity, I will appear in the form of Nine Tails on certain occasions to increase the accuracy of the message.

In this way, it can be divided into light and dark Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, which will have a better protective effect.

In addition, in order to better deceive the enemy, Konoha must keep it secret, and it is best not to let the other three senior officials know.

Of course, these are what I have been thinking about while lying in bed recently. If there are any problems, the third generation can point them out. "

Mizama expressed his thoughts bit by bit.

After hearing this, the Third Hokage did not answer Minama immediately, but fell into deep thinking, and Minama did not bother him.

Sandai felt like he was not talking to a six-year-old child. The other person made him feel like an adult who had an insight into the world. This feeling made him feel absurd, but it existed.

If Minama hadn't thoroughly checked his body during his coma, and if he hadn't been under his control since the night of the Kyuubi, I'm afraid the third generation would have suspected that he had been taken away.

It could only be attributed to precocious wisdom. It reminded him of the first time he met Mizama. At that time, he thought he was very precocious.

I didn't expect that at such a young age, this child could already think about problems with Naruto's mind and the will of fire.

Sarutobi thought of a lot at this moment.

"It's difficult not to let other high-level officials know. The Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki affects the entire Konoha Village, and I can't make the decision alone.

But I will discuss your proposal with them. They should not refuse it. After all, this is something that will benefit the village without any harm. "

"I want to trust my father's judgment. I don't trust the other three senior officials." Mizama still insisted.

"I will investigate the previous intelligence leaks carefully. No matter who it is, I will never condone it.

As for the person to raise, if Nonoyu is suitable for investigation, I will agree.

In addition, I will leave the legacy of Minato and Kushina to you and Naruto.

Naruto is in the baby nursery, and I have arranged for someone to take care of him. Take advantage of this time to get along well with Naruto.

I’m afraid you brothers won’t be able to see each other for a while after that.”

The Third Hokage said with some depression in his tone. Obviously he also felt that it was unkind to separate the Mizama brothers.

"Sandaime-sama, where are the remains of my parents? I want to see them again." Mizama estimated that the conversation was almost over, so he asked sadly.

"The bodies of the Yondaime and Kushina have been placed, and then I will ask the ANBU to arrange a time for you to say goodbye as soon as possible.

Sorry, Minama, I can't give their bodies to you. The village has its own rules.

The village will give them a good burial, they are the heroes of Konoha. "

Sarutobi said deeply.

This is right. This is how a child should react to the death of his parents.

At this point, they had basically finished talking about everything that could be discussed, and the two of them said some words that were neither salty nor light, such as comforting Mizama not to be too sad.

He also informed Minama of the funeral ceremony for the village victims of the Nine-Tails Rebellion that would be held in three days.

After the Third Hokage left, Minama sat on the bedside and meditated. Everything was calculated by himself, and the Third Hokage simply could not refuse his proposal.

As long as this period of time passes, he will definitely be able to get back Naruto's custody rights, and then the three generations will not be able to help him.

I just hope that this conversation didn't reveal anything.

Then I recalled the conversation in bed to see if there was anything I missed that needed to be filled in later.
