Uchiha Mikoto is wearing a purple dress that is slim and slim. Although she wears home clothes, her elegant temperament and exquisite appearance are still eye-catching among all the parents.

As expected of a woman from the famous Uchiha clan, even though she is also a housewife, she has an extraordinary temperament.

"Hokage-sama, the speech you just gave was really exciting.

I remember that at our entrance ceremony, three generations of adults also inspired us with such shocking words. "

"The way Itachi looked at you just now was full of yearning and reverence."

Uchiha Mikoto stroked Uchiha Itachi's little head and said with a smile.

It is worth mentioning that Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Mikoto were students at the same time in the ninja school, but they were in different classes.

So at the opening ceremony of the two of them, the Third Hokage, like Minato Namikaze today, took the stage and gave a speech.

Uchiha Itachi was probably a little embarrassed by what Uchiha Mikoto said, so he couldn't help lowering his eyes, showing a rare shy expression.

"Yes, time flies by, time flies..."

Namikaze Minato couldn't help but sigh.

All of this probably happened 20 years ago. In the blink of an eye, although many of the students at that time died early due to missions or wars, the remaining ones are now basically fathers and mothers. .

Namikaze Minato was almost 25 years old at this time, and Uchiha Mikoto was certainly about the same.

The slight difference is that Uchiha Mikoto got married earlier. After all, his eldest son Uchiha Itachi is now almost 6 years old.

Perhaps recalling their school days, Uchiha Mikoto and Namikaze Minato couldn't help but chat a few more interesting things from the past.

After the small talk, the topic inevitably returned to Kushina and Naruto.

"Hokage-sama, you are busy with official duties, can you cope with taking care of Naruto alone?" Uchiha Mikoto asked with concern.

"...Well, this is okay."

Minato Namikaze smiled helplessly, and then told him that he had hired a nanny to take care of Naruto all day long. Uchiha Mikoto felt much relieved after hearing this.

After hesitating for a while, an idea suddenly came to her mind, and she didn't know whether she should say it or not.

Soon, I briefly fell into memories.

Just last night, after the regular clan meeting of the Uchiha clan ended, Uchiha Fugaku looked worried when he returned home. She couldn't help asking and found out that it was because Uchiha Fugaku wanted to seriously rectify the situation. The police force has encountered some obstacles regarding its work style.

Because of the problems with Konoha's special system, joining the guard force is already a member of the Uchiha clan and can become the only place in the village system.

Although the circle of the Guard restricted Uchiha, it also caused many people to gradually build up resentments. At the same time, a hidden disadvantage was that this circle of restrictions on Uchiha actually made the entire Uchiha clan more exclusive.

After all, no matter how strong you are as an Uchiha member, no matter how talented a ninja you are, you can still only serve in the police force.

To sum up the above reasons, Uchiha Fugaku's idea of ​​​​purging the atmosphere of the police force was naturally unable to be implemented smoothly.

The estrangement between the Uchiha clan and the villagers of Konoha did not arise in a day, and improving this relationship cannot be achieved unilaterally. Uchiha Fugaku has obviously realized this.

After hearing her husband's confession and troubles, Uchiha Mikoto also fell into thinking.

When Uzumaki Kushina was still alive, she had intentionally or unintentionally tried to use their close friendship as a bridge to bring the relationship between the top management of the Hokage and the Uchiha clan closer.

But unfortunately, now that Kushina is dead, this relationship is broken.

But after mentioning Naruto today, she accidentally thought of another method, but she didn't know if it was a bit abrupt to propose it at this time.

"...So be it, Itachi, your journey as a ninja has just begun. I am very optimistic about you. I hope that in the future, with the will of fire, you will be able to illuminate the entire Konoha and Uchiha clan."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Itachi's little body tensed up and he bowed his head respectfully in response.

Although he is less than six years old, his firm tone and standard etiquette gestures make him look like an adult.

Seeing that Minato Namikaze was about to leave, Uchiha Mikoto finally stopped hesitating and said after some thought: "...There is one more thing, Hokage-sama."

"If you think it's convenient, you can send little Naruto... to my house for foster care for a short time."

"This is the only thing I can do to help Kushina..."

After Uchiha Mikoto finished speaking, she looked at Namikaze Minato and carefully observed the expression on his face.

It was said that he was helping Kushina, but in fact it was just a pretext.

After all, if he bluntly said that he wanted to help the Hokage take care of the children, wouldn't it make people doubt his bad motives?

Because Kushina is no longer here, if Naruto can be used as a bridge, it will be a good way to bring Uchiha and Konoha's top management closer.

Of course, this is all based on the fact that after the Nine-Tails Rebellion, at the village meeting, Namikaze Minato clearly intended to ease the relationship between Uchiha and the village, so he could make such a suggestion.

Otherwise, if someone else comes here, their motives will only be suspected...

"... Well, to be honest, I feel quite relieved to have Naruto in your home." Namikaze Minato smiled warmly, and then sighed, with a look of helplessness on his eyebrows, "But let me do it again. Think about it."

"Anyway, thank you for your kindness."

Seeing that Namikaze Minato neither accepted nor refused, Uchiha Mikoto, although slightly disappointed, understood that this was the most reasonable response.

Because Namikaze Minato is Hokage, even if he intends to ease the relationship with Uchiha, other factors need to be taken into consideration in this matter.

But what Uchiha Mikoto didn't know was that after Minato Namikaze heard her suggestion, she was actually willing to do so.

Namikaze Minato, who knew that changing Uchiha had to be done step by step, never thought that there could be such a way to express the wishes of the higher-ups to Uchiha.

However, as a modern person who traveled through time, through experience and his understanding of the current situation in Konoha Village these days, he understood that politics is not that simple.The factor he was concerned about was not on the high-level side, but within the Uchiha.

At present, there is no doubt that the patriarch Uchiha Fugaku and his family want to actively improve relations in the village.

But I am just afraid that there are other unstable factors within the police force.

Fostering Naruto in Fugaku's house is a worry-free thing, and the purpose of showing friendship can be achieved, but if there are those with treacherous intentions in the police force, they find an opportunity to host Naruto as a hostage to launch a coup. This extremely terrible situation has to be taken into consideration.

Therefore, at least before finding out the internal situation of the police force, the matter of fostering Naruto should be carefully considered.
