Naruto the demon fox in troubled world

Early the next morning, Namikaze Minato and his party got up early. They dressed in black mourning clothes and waited for Yashamaru's arrival.

This morning is the "farewell ceremony" for the Fourth Kazekage's wife, Garura. You have to be careful about everything and don't be careless.

Funerals in Sunagakure Village are divided into overnight and farewell ceremonies.

The all-night ceremony usually starts at seven o'clock in the evening and lasts until about nine o'clock in the evening. Relatives, friends and other related persons usually participate, mainly to offer incense to the deceased.

The farewell ceremony is held on the morning of the next day, before the deceased is cremated. The participants mainly take one last look at the deceased.

"It's the third day since I arrived in Sunagakure before I could see the Kazekage. It's too rude for Sunagakure to do so." Namashiro said while adjusting his clothes.

"Okay, Raytheon, stop complaining. This time Konoha is asking for help from Sunagakure. We must know how to be patient." Shiranui Genma reminded.

"Genma is right. No matter how dissatisfied everyone is, today is Garura's funeral. The deceased is the biggest, so everyone cannot show any dissatisfaction. Otherwise, Konoha and Sunagakure will no longer have the possibility of forming an alliance. "

The matter was of great importance, and Namikaze Minato's expression was very serious: "Today, you must be extremely careful in what you say and do."

"clear."

Shiranui Genma, Tie Iwashi and Tamashiri felt an inexplicable sense of heaviness in Namikaze Minato's tone, and they all quickly put away their lazy postures and nodded seriously to show that they understood.

"Tude."

"Tuk Tuk Tuk."

There was a knock on the door at exactly this moment.

"Yashamaru should be here, Genma, go open the door." Namikaze Minato said.

The door to the guest room opened, and the person who came was indeed Yashamaru.

"Hokage-sama, excuse me, my sister's funeral is about to start. Please follow me." Yashamaru walked into the room and greeted Minato Namikaze and said.

"Well, okay, please, Yashamaru."

Namikaze Minato deliberately took a few glances at Yashamaru's bandaged arms and thighs, and then said, "Yashamaru, did you go on a mission during your sister's funeral? Why were you injured?"

"To make Hokage-sama laugh, the night before yesterday, a small group of wandering ninjas came to Sand Hidden Village to steal the Sand Hidden Technique. I found them. When I captured them, I accidentally suffered a slight injury." Yashamaru did not pause for a moment. and answered hesitantly, as if that was the truth.

"I see, the Third Ninja War ended not long ago, and it seems that the aftermath of the war has not completely subsided."

Namikaze Minato understood immediately: the assassination incident had not spread in Sunagakure Village. He put aside most of the worries in his heart. After nodding slightly, he said: "Then, please lead the way."

"You're too polite, Hokage-sama, please follow me." With that said, Yashamaru turned around and led Namikaze Minato and his party to where the funeral was taking place.

When Minato Namikaze and his party arrived at the location where the funeral was being held, the people from Sunagakure Village who were supposed to attend the funeral had already arrived, and most of them were looking at Minato Namikaze with unkind expressions.

"Hokage-sama came all the way to attend Garura's funeral. I would like to express my deep gratitude. In the past few days, I have been busy with funeral matters and I have not treated Hokage-sama well. I hope that Hokage-sama will forgive you." Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage, Walking out of the mourning hall, he personally greeted Minato Namikaze.

"Kazekage-sama, you're too polite. It's because a few of us came unexpectedly. Moreover, Yashamaru also tried his best to entertain us. How can we talk about poor hospitality?" Namikaze Minato ignored the hateful looks from all directions and calmly talked to everyone. Dai Fengying was talking.

"As long as you don't blame me, Hokage-sama, please come in quickly. Garura's funeral will begin soon." The Fourth Kazekage turned sideways, raised his hand, and made an invitation gesture, then turned around and led the way. He led Namikaze Minato towards the mourning hall.

When the group of people arrived at the entrance of the mourning hall, Namikaze Minato looked at an old man who was collecting money and accounting at the door, and said, "Wait a moment, Kazekage-sama."

"Huh? What's wrong? Hokage-sama?" The Fourth Kazekage heard the voice, stopped and turned to look at Namikaze Minato.

"Master Kazekage, this is the 'Xiangdian' I prepared for my wife, please accept it." Minato Namikaze took out a scroll that had been prepared and handed it to the Fourth Kazekage.

Xiangdian is actually money for burning incense. In Chinese customs, it means accompanying gifts.

"Then thank you, Hokage-sama."

The Fourth Kazekage took the scroll from Namikaze Minato's hand without being polite, because 'Kanagi' could not be refused. However, when the Fourth Kazekage opened the scroll and took a look, the Fourth Kazekage's eyebrows He slowly wrinkled and his expression instantly became gloomy: "Hokage-sama, this gift..."

"Please accept it, Kazekage-sama." Seeing the change in the Fourth Kazekage's expression, Namikaze Minato even wondered for a moment whether he had picked up the wrong scroll.

"No, Hokage-sama, I, Sunagakure, am afraid that I, Sunagakure, will not be happy to accept this gift."

The Fourth Kazekage closed the scroll, handed it back to Namikaze Minato, and said: "I know that Hokage-sama's wife is a member of the Uzumaki clan, and the Uzumaki clan is famous for its sealing technique in the ninja world. The gossip recorded in this scroll The seal is the secret technique of the Uzumaki clan, and it possesses the powerful sealing power to suppress the tailed beasts. I, Sunagakure...cannot be rewarded without merit."

"What? Bagua seal? The Bagua seal of the Uzumaki clan?"

"The 'Xiangdian' brought by the Hokage is actually a Bagua seal?"

"'Xiangdian' logically cannot refuse. Damn it, Konoha, how could you be willing to give out such a valuable thing."

"Is it the Bagua seal? Sunagakure really needs it now, but..."

.....

The people who heard what the Fourth Kazekage said began to talk. Among them, some people with real power in Sunagakure Village also showed greed, hesitation, surprise, etc.

"This is a 'Xiangdian', Kazekage-sama should not refuse. Moreover, this 'Xiangdian' was specially asked by my wife Uzumaki Kushina to use it as a 'Xiangdian' to express my respect for Garuru." "Yes." Namikaze Minato shook his head slightly, and slowly pushed back the Fourth Kazekage's outstretched hand.

"Hmm? Hokage-sama's wife's instructions?" The Fourth Kazekage asked following Minato Namikaze's words. His hand holding the scroll did not extend anymore, but he naturally retracted it under the push of Minato Namikaze. Holding the scroll tightly.

"Yes, my wife just gave birth and she is now the mother of the child."

Namikaze Minato's ability to lie is getting stronger and stronger, but, being in a high position, he can't do anything about it: "When he heard that the Kazekage-sama's wife died in childbirth in order to give birth to her third son, Kushina was very I admire her. She told me that when giving birth, most mothers would ask for the baby to be preserved but not the baby. However, Garura chose death for the sake of her child. She is a great mother... just for this reason. , Lord Kazekage, you should accept the Bagua sealing technique, because this is the respect expressed by one mother to another mother."

It doesn’t matter what the excuse is, what matters is that the gift can be given.

It is an eternal truth to be soft-spoken and short-handed to take advantage of others.

"The great... mother?"

The Fourth Kazekage felt a touch of emotion in his heart inexplicably: "Garura is indeed a great mother. In comparison, my father...well, in that case, Naruto Sir, I really have no reason to refuse, so I will accept this 'Xiangdian', please express my sincere gratitude to your wife Kushina for me."

"Okay, Kazekage-sama." Namikaze Minato nodded and said with a smile.

"Well, please come in, Hokage-sama." The Fourth Kazekage's attitude became obviously friendly.

Garura's funeral began soon. After the monks finished chanting, the Fourth Kazekage personally carried his wife's coffin to the cremation site. It can be seen that the Fourth Kazekage also loved his wife deeply.

"Karuro...goodbye." When the fire ignited, a tear fell from the corner of the Fourth Kazekage's eye.

Non-vegetation....
