If you don't want to unify the ninja world, why are you crying about the ninja village system?

Not far away, a bowl of steaming Japanese tea porridge was emitting a faint tea aroma.

The porridge is added with ground matcha, which makes the porridge attractive green and has a fresh and unique taste.

With every bite, you can feel the bitterness of matcha blending with the sweetness of porridge.

It's something to lift your spirits for the day, but there's more to it than just this.

As far as Naruto knew, Sasuke liked to drink coffee. He tried it, but it was too bitter and he didn't like it very much.

In addition, there is a Japanese pickled vegetable platter, including cucumbers, radishes, eggplants and other vegetables. Each one is carefully pickled, with a crispy texture and different flavors.

The sour, spicy and salty taste of the pickled vegetables adds a sense of layering to this breakfast, allowing people to feel the delicacy and refinement of Japanese cuisine while enjoying the food.

In the center is a freshly-baked, golden and crispy French croissant. Each layer is clearly defined. With a light bite, the puff pastry spreads lightly in your mouth, accompanied by a light butter aroma that instantly intoxicates you.

Next to it, a plate of exquisite foie gras pate lies quietly on a small silver dish. Its surface is as smooth as a mirror, and its color is deep and attractive. Paired with freshly baked whole wheat toast, every bite is an ultimate indulgence for the taste buds.

Of course, there are also freshly picked strawberries, blueberries, mangoes and kiwis.

They are placed in the fruit plate in an orderly manner, each one is plump and juicy, exuding a natural sweetness.

Sweet, salty, and natural, we have it all.

Kushina supported her face with her hands, her cheeks puffed out, looking very cute.

She ate a few bites, then put down her bowl and chopsticks and focused on taking care of Naruto's diet.

She kept putting food into Naruto's bowl, muttering, "You need to eat more when you are growing."

Naruto looked at the mountain of delicious food in front of him, his eyes shining, and he nodded hesitantly.

Kushina looked at Naruto wolfing down the food and couldn't help but feel an indescribable feeling in her heart.

She gently stroked Naruto's head and gently reminded him: "Eat slowly, be careful not to choke."

With his mouth full of food, Naruto replied incoherently, "Thank you, Auntie, the food is delicious!" After that, he continued to work hard and enjoy the delicious food.

"You ate these two fried eggs too. These truffles are not easy to make..."

When the last serving of the special truffle omelette was placed in front of Naruto, he could no longer eat.

He held his stomach and picked up the fried egg with some difficulty.

The omelette has a smooth white, a slightly runny yolk and is garnished with a few thin slices of black truffle.

He closed his eyes and then stuffed it all into his mouth.

"Well--"

Kushina smiled and reached out to gently touch Naruto's hair.

Just then, the doorbell rang, and Naruto asked vaguely with his mouth full of food, "Who is it?"

Kushina stood up, walked to the door and opened it.

A yellow-haired man stood outside the door. He looked at Kushina and said softly, "I'm back."

"Minato!" Kushina shouted happily.

Naruto also raised his head and looked at the man at the door, his eyes also showing a long-lost longing.

During this period...Minato has rarely come back...

Naruto likes Kushina, but he likes this man with yellow hair like himself even more.

Perhaps because they met for a short time, he missed Minato more.

"uncle..."

Naruto stood up, wiped the corner of his mouth, and felt a little embarrassed.

Minato came in and patted his head as well.

There was still some breakfast left on the table, and Minato ate it without any disgust.

"How did you find time to come back?"

Kushina looked at Minato with eyes full of love.

"The Imperial Expedition has been dealt with. I am affiliated with the Transportation Department. Although I have a nominal membership in the Legion, the Emperor did not say that I must go to that world this time."

"So... I'll come back and take a look when I'm done."

"Naruto, isn't he going to take the Chunin Exam soon? I just came back to see if there's anything I can do to help him."

When Naruto heard this, his originally dim eyes instantly brightened up and he saw the dawn of hope.

I have always been the last one in the class.

How could he not desire a chance to surpass Sasuke?

but...

His eyes dimmed again.

I am just an ordinary ninja.

No talent, no bloodline limit...

"But... the Chunin Exam will be held next Monday, there is only one day left..."

Kushina glanced at Minato helplessly, a hint of worry and helplessness in her eyes.

Minato had a faint smile on his face, looking very confident.

"No problem, trust me."

His tone was light but firm and powerful.

Naruto felt a warm feeling in his heart and he was full of trust in Minato.

Although time was tight, he believed that since the father of this world said so, it must be possible!

In Konoha, behind the Valley of the End, where natural spiritual energy is most abundant.

There is a newly opened area sealed by a barrier.

Minato led Naruto through layers of barriers and entered the innermost layer.

Here, Naruto saw many familiar and unfamiliar faces.

There aren't many people here, but each of them possesses powerful and surging chakra.

"It's a pity that Sensei Jiraiya is not here, otherwise he would be the most suitable person to teach you."

Minato sighed, then led Naruto into an area engraved with a formation.

The formation was in a closed state with a barrier, but Minato simply scanned his bracelet and entered directly.

"You need certain permissions to enter here. First, you must have the entry level of senjutsu. Secondly, you must have the strength of a jonin or above. And each time you enter, you need a certain amount of merit."

Minato explained to Naruto patiently.

"Achievements?"

“Yes, this is something more important than money.”

"Merit can be obtained through missions issued by the empire. There is no other way."

Minato said as he already walked inside with Naruto.

As soon as he entered, Naruto felt all the pores on his body relax, and he felt an indescribable sense of pleasure.

“This is where the most abundant natural energy in the area is gathered.”

"When we utilize these energies, it is called immortal arts."

"Your Uzumaki is no worse than Sasuke's Sharingan."

"It's just that because the Nine-Tails was extracted from your body, there are still some sequelae. Your body is still repairing the damage caused by the Nine-Tails' chakra leaking out."

"Right now, the Nine-Tails chakra and the Uzumaki chakra in your body are not being used well. You can think of them as competing with each other."

"That's why you're so tired every day, because your chakra is resisting the Nine-Tails' chakra all the time."

"Now, I will teach you the magic. With the intervention of the third force, the power in your body will be well balanced!"
