Naruto: My and Obito's mutual redemption

Although it took a little time, it didn't matter at all, after all, it only took Shenwei a few minutes to get here. The two guys ran around and played around, and now they were in a good mood. As for the injuries from the fall just now... they were all healed in less than a minute.

Obito dusted himself off, walked cheerfully to Kakashi's side, and said in a sly tone, "Hehe~ Kakashi, I tell you, the view up there is really amazing! It's a pity you haven't seen it~"

Kakashi rolled his eyes and muttered, "Look at what you can do... Why didn't I just throw you down like an idiot..."

Obito didn't get annoyed, but continued in that tone: "Hey, actually you want to go and see it too~ It's really fun!"

"..."

After much noise and chatter along the way, the four members of Minato's team finally arrived at the City of Fire.

The prosperity here is even higher than that of Konoha Village. After all, as the capital of the Land of Fire, the business here is far beyond that of a village. This place controls the economy of the entire country and is the richest place in the entire Land of Fire, and even in the Ninja World.

Yu Yan put away his playful thoughts, he came here for something important... He spread his senses and roughly scanned the environment inside the city.

"Well... Mr. Minato, the city is very safe. There are basically no people or ninjas who can directly threaten us. The strongest ones are probably only at the level of a Jonin..."

"Oh? That's great. But explaining things to the daimyo is not an easy task..."

Minato's face was filled with sorrow. He had not expected that he would have to come to the daimyo's mansion to explain his mistakes not long after he took office as Hokage. He really did not want to come to this kind of criticism meeting, but there was nothing he could do. Although he was a Hokage and had great strength, he was still just a worker under the daimyo's rule...

After all, ninjas do not engage in production, and most of their money and materials come from grants from the daimyo government, so the two are mutually beneficial.

"Let's go to Daming Mansion first. They will arrange accommodation for us there. After we have the meeting, let's go eat something together..."

Minato made the arrangements in a few words. After all, he was the only one who was actually talking to the Daimyo, and his three students were basically just there to make up the numbers.

But Yuyan is special. With his ability, he should be able to investigate something. I just hope that we can find out his background peacefully in the end...

The person involved, Yu Yan, did not have any special emotions about this. He was who he was, so what if he had a relationship with Daming Mansion? He was not originally on the family register of Daming Mansion, so it was meaningless to admit it or not.

All he wanted was the original truth, which was who his mother was. Even if he knew it in the end, he didn't plan to have any contact with them... After all, in his opinion, the system of the daimyo ruling the country was really backward. Shouldn't the people be the masters? Well... it's necessary to spread the idea later!

Daming Mansion is very big. From a distance, you can see a castle-like building located at the highest point of the terrain. It took no effort for the few people to walk straight to the gate of Daming Mansion. There are probably hundreds of long steps. Only when you walk in can you feel the grandeur of this building...

"So rich..."

Yu Yan complained in his heart that even if the daimyo had hundreds of people around him, this kind of building was still too exaggerated. A rough estimate was that this "castle" could accommodate at least tens of thousands of people.

Obito looked at the building curiously, but he was not very interested. In his opinion, it was not as good as the small house he and Yuyan lived in. Aren't you afraid to live in such a big house?

Minato was about to go in when he suddenly thought of something. He turned around and took out two forehead protectors from his bag. He handed them to Yuyan and Obito, smiled and said, "You are ninjas of Konoha after all. You can't live without forehead protectors. Come on and put them on!"

"Oh!"

Obito took it with a happy look on his face. His original forehead protector had long been lost. The same was true for Yuyan. When Konan and the others picked him up, he had nothing left except the clothes on his body.

Yu Yan took a forehead protector and waved at Obito, signaling him to lower his head...

"I'll help you~"

"Ok!"

After fiddling with it for a few times, Yu Yan made sure that the forehead guard was positioned correctly and would not fall off, then he smiled with satisfaction.

"Hmm~ Very handsome!"

It’s been a long time since I saw Obito wearing a forehead protector. Although Yuyan prefers him without the forehead protector, Obito with the forehead protector tied on again also has a special kind of handsomeness.

......

After walking a long way with the guards leading the way, they finally arrived in front of a hall...

"Hokage-sama, please..."

The guard leading the way spoke expressionlessly, then turned and left.

Minato straightened his Hokage hat and knocked on the door seriously...

"Boom boom boom——"

"Daimyo-sama, the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato requests to see you..."

"Please come in..."

The door was opened, and what came into view was a spacious hall. The daimyo was sitting in the first seat in the center, waving a folding fan in his hand and looking at Minato and his group with an extremely lazy look.

Yu Yan observed the surrounding environment calmly... This kind of pomp and circumstance is just like the emperor in his impression. The daimyo has an extremely ordinary passerby face, with a fan-like headdress on his head, which is not sure what it is. There are three flame-shaped emblems painted on the headdress...

"Excuse me, Lord Ogosho, these are my three subordinates."

"sit down."

Minato sat down below and began to report to the daimyo about what happened that night. The daimyo seemed to have listened to the whole thing, but also seemed not to have listened...

Obito was not used to this kind of atmosphere. Kneeling was really tiring... He really wanted to lean on Yuyan... His mind was wandering in a mess and he didn't care about the situation of the daimyo at all.

Yu Yan felt sleepy after hearing this. He had sensed it when he just came in. The daimyo in front of him was really just an ordinary person. But he couldn't help but sigh that such an ordinary person could control the military power of the entire Konoha... It was really confusing...

More importantly, he did not feel any blood connection with the person in front of him. It was not reasonable... Although this daimyo looked very strange and had nothing to do with his face... However, the lack of blood connection made Yu Yan feel even more strange.

Could it be that I actually have nothing to do with Daming Prefecture?

This inference seemed unreasonable to him. The jade token was indeed something that only the daimyo family had, and it was impossible for it to be lost. Seeing that the most important daimyo in front of him did not give Yu Yan any clues, he did not want to stay here any longer and just wanted to end this boring conversation quickly...

The daimyo's eyes were calm, but when he heard that it was the two students behind Minato Namikaze who stopped the disaster, his eyes brightened up. He began to focus more on Yuyan and Obito...

"Hmm... the descendants of the Senju family, they really deserve the name of Senju... and the Uchiha kid, it's rare..."

The first half of the sentence seemed to be praising Yuyan, but Yuyan could not hear any compliment. The second half of the riddle was even more difficult to understand. Obito did not understand it and just scratched his cheek embarrassedly.

Rare? That's true. Uchiha Madara must have left a deep impression on your Daimyo Prefecture...

After a brief silence, Minato was about to ask the Daimyo's opinion, but the Daimyo sitting at the head suddenly spoke: "Minato... I've been thinking recently that the Daimyo's mansion also needs its own ninja unit... I think the two students behind you are good, what do you think?"

Minato's mouth twitched when he heard the Daimyo's words, but on the surface he still said calmly: "We need to ask them what they think. My idea is... they still need some time..."

"Well... okay, let's talk about it later. The salary I offer is very high, far beyond the imagination of ordinary ninjas. If you have made up your mind, you can come to me at any time..."

Yu Yan was speechless after hearing what Daimyo said... It was impossible for her to work for him, so she should let Asuma and the others do this job...

"Let's stop here for today. I know the situation in Konoha. I will give a part of the funds for reconstruction... As for the rest, we will talk about it tomorrow..."

Daimyo waved a folding fan in his hand and closed his eyes slightly.

Seeing this, Minato had no choice but to stand up and said softly: "Then we will take our leave first..."

Minato knew the habits of the daimyo's mansion, and this time it would probably take three days to finish the conversation. Each conversation was probably only an hour... In other words, the daimyo's work for the day was done.

Compared to the daimyo, Minato really thinks that the job of Hokage is not a job for humans...

Kakashi patted the sleepy Obito's head and muttered quietly: "Let's go... idiot..."

"Oh..."

Obito gradually regained consciousness, stood up, and followed Yuhiko out of the hall.
