Naruto, uncle, I am going to be Hokage!

“Ding ding ding ding!!”

Naruto was sleeping restlessly in the bedroom, with transparent snot bubbles rising and falling in response to the sound of snoring. Naruto was awakened from his sleep by the piercing sound of an alarm bell.

"Oh no! It's nine o'clock, I'm going to be late for school!"

Six-year-old Naruto still lacks initiative when it comes to going to school!

He picked up a piece of clothing at random, not even having time to wipe the drool on his face, and ran downstairs while getting dressed.

Namikaze Mirai was sitting at the dining table, enjoying breakfast leisurely.

"Uncle, why didn't you call me?"

Namikaze Mirai took a sip of coffee calmly: "Sometimes you have to learn to get up by yourself."

"Uncle, I won't have breakfast!"

He picked up the school bag on the sofa and put it on his back. He had no time to straighten his messy blond hair and ran out the door.

A figure appeared in front of him, stuffed something into his arms, and a soft electronic female voice sounded.

"Please take it with you to eat on the road. It is a bad habit to go to school hungry."

"Thank you! Number 18!"

With the sandwich handed to him by No. 18 in his mouth, Naruto waved his hand to No. 18, opened the door and ran out.

The weather outside is nice and the morning sun is very warm.

In the past two years of development, Konoha has become the largest city in the shinobi world. There are dark and wide asphalt roads, and rows of metal street lights line both sides. As far as the eye can see, there are high-rise buildings.

The name village has not been mentioned for a long time.

Most of them are called the capital of the Fire Nation, City of Leaf and other more modern titles!

Naruto, who was about to be late, had no idea of ​​appreciating Konoha's construction. He bit into the sandwich handed to him by No. 18 and ran all the way.

"No, I'm going to be late!"

A sizzling blue electric current appeared under his feet, and Naruto's speed increased dramatically, like a locomotive sprinting on an asphalt road, causing a gust of wind and waves.

Current push!

Naruto's gains in the past two years, under the training of Mirai Namikaze, his strength has grown significantly compared to two years ago.

The outline of Konoha School soon appeared in Naruto's field of vision. While sprinting, he jumped on the ground and crossed the closed door with a light parabola.

The chuunin guarding the door was about to curse, but he quickly swallowed his words after seeing Naruto's face clearly.

so close! If you offend Naruto and provoke Namikaze Mirai, the gain will outweigh the loss!

"Let's start today's roll call."

In the classroom, Iruka was holding the roll call and starting the roll call before class.

"Hinata Hinata."

"arrive."

Hinata's timid voice sounded.

"Haruno Sakura."

"arrive!"

"Sasuke Uchiha……"

The students whose names were called responded one after another, and no one was absent.

"Uzumaki Naruto."

The class was silent, no one responded.

"Uzumaki Naruto!"

Iruka called again, louder.

Still no response.

Shaking his head, he was about to write down the word late on the roll call.

"arrive!!!"

A harsh sound like a roaring train came from far and near, and a cloud of dust rose up at the entrance of the classroom, attracting everyone's attention.

Naruto's figure emerged from the swirling dust and smoke. He was holding on to the door frame with one hand and holding a sandwich in the other hand. He was panting and sweat was falling from his forehead.

Iruka chuckled and shook his head.

Put a check mark on Naruto's column in the roll call.

As the nephew of the Godaime, even if he is late, he still has this privilege.

Naruto sat down in his seat, feeling tired as he listened to the sound of reading in his ears. While eating his sandwich, he looked out the window, his thoughts already drifting outside.

…

At the gate of Konoha, a middle-aged man with hedgehog white hair and bright red paint on both sides of his cheeks looked up at the "village" he had never seen before, frozen in place like paraffin.

"Uncle, do you need help?"

The Hyuga ninja guarding the gate of Konoha noticed the other party's dilemma and stepped forward to ask.

The middle-aged man swallowed his saliva and said with some uncertainty.

"Excuse me, is this Konoha..."

"Of course this is Konoha!"

The Hyuga ninja guarding the gate looked at each other in surprise. Is there anyone who doesn't know Konoha now?

Could this guy be a country bumpkin from some unknown place?

The middle-aged man scratched his head: "This doesn't look like my village. My village is not that big."

"What?!"

"I remember that the gates of Konoha in the past were made of wood, the walls were not so high, and there were not so many buildings. I always felt like I was in the wrong place!

Wooden door?

That was all so long ago.

The Hyuga ninjas were shocked. Since Namikaze Mirai came to power, Konoha has undergone earth-shaking changes.

etc!

He looked at the middle-aged man's confused and somewhat honest look.

A name that had been forgotten for a long time jumped out of his mind, causing the surprise on his face to disappear, replaced by an expression of shock mixed with excitement.

"Are you, Lord Jiraiya?"

"Oh, I didn't expect that someone would remember my name for so long."

Jiraiya scratched his head, looking embarrassed.

"It's really you, Jiraiya-sama, you've returned to the village!"

The Hyuga ninja was so excited to see this legendary Sannin after so many years.

If Jiraiya was just one of the three ninjas, he wouldn't be so excited.

The key is that in addition to being one of the three ninjas, Jiraiya also has another identity that is envied by countless people. He is the teacher of Namikaze's future brother, Minato Namikaze!

In other words, he is related to the Fifth Hokage!

It’s a perfect relationship account!

Not paying attention to the exaggerated and fanatical gaze of the Hyuga ninja, Jiraiya looked up at the buildings in Konoha Village, and his cognition was greatly shocked.

After wandering around the ninja world for these years, listening to the illusory prophecies of the Great Toad Sage, and pursuing the child of destiny, this is the first time he has returned to Konoha.

Although I had heard various rumors about Konoha on the road and had a rough guess about Konoha's current development, I just really returned to Konoha and saw the scene in front of me with my own eyes.

Jiraiya felt the impact of cognitive collapse.

Is this really Konoha?

"You don't know yet! Konoha's development today is all due to the Fifth Hokage. The villagers call the Fifth Hokage the new god of ninja..."

Listening to the adoring voices of the Hyuga ninja, Jiraiya recalled the appearance of Minato and Minato's younger brother.

There was a trance, as if he had gone back to the time when he first met the two brothers many years ago.

…

Konoha Winery.

In the quiet elegant room, Tsunade poured a full glass of wine into the wine cup in front of her and drank it in one gulp. She felt that it was not enough, so she held the wine jar and raised her head to swallow.

"It's as vigorous as ever!"

Jiraiya swallowed at the sight.

After so many years of not seeing each other, Tsunade didn't seem to have changed at all.

His eyes moved downward uncontrollably and stayed on the pair of huge round spheres. The fabric of his clothes was soaked by the dripping wine and became translucent, which made Jiraiya even more restless.

boom!

Tsunade put the wine jar on the table, with a slight blush on the sides of her cheeks, and narrowed her eyes.

"Jiraiya, where are you looking?"

"I haven't seen you for a long time, I miss you so much!"

Jiraiya leaned forward with a mean look on his face, opened his arms, and made a hug gesture.

"Tsunade, I haven't seen you for so many years, please give me a hug, oh!"

The severe pain on his head made Jiraiya's expression distorted, and a bright red bag appeared on top of his head, steaming.

Tsunade clapped her hands: "It hasn't changed at all in so many years. Dogs can't change eating shit."

He looked towards the entrance of the wine shop and frowned slightly.

"What is Orochimaru doing? Why haven't you come here yet?"

It was agreed that this would be a dinner party between the three of them, but Orochimaru was late again.

A guy who completely loses track of time once he encounters research that he likes, so you really can't trust his promise.

As Tsunade was fuming, a familiar magnetic and slightly hoarse voice came, causing her to turn her head in surprise.

"Sorry, I'm late."

Orochimaru sat on the empty seat opposite Tsunade, his pale golden vertical eyes showing an apologetic smile.

"Orochimaru, it's rare for you to be on time."

Tsunade seemed surprised, but also seemed to be sarcastic.

“People change all the time.”

Orochimaru said hoarsely.

Yes, people change.

Tsunade suddenly felt very emotional in her heart, people will always change, if everyone stays the same.

The three of them will not get together again after parting ways, sitting at the same table and talking and laughing like they did more than ten years ago.

"To celebrate the reunion of the three of us, I drank this glass of wine!"

Tsunade picked up the wine glass in front of her and drank it down very boldly.

Jiraiya and Orochimaru smiled at each other and drank the wine in front of them.

The friendship between the three of them seemed to be dissolved in the wine, and as the alcohol evaporated into the air, it overflowed the entire wine shop.

Reunited after many years of separation, they talked about the past, ideals, and life. The world was like different lines. Their lines had been running parallel for a long time, and finally intersected.

"By the way, Jiraiya, why did you come back suddenly at this time? Have you found the Child of Destiny?"

After talking freely, Orochimaru asked about the confusion in his heart.

Jiraiya, who had left the village for many years and devoted all his life ideals to finding the son of destiny, chose to return to the village at this time.

Could it be that we have found the child of destiny?

What surprised Orochimaru was that after he asked this question, Jiraiya suddenly fell silent, and the air in the private room fell into dead silence for a moment.

Orochimaru and Tsunade looked at each other, both seeing confusion in the other's eyes.

In the surprised expressions of the two of them, Jiraiya sighed in a complicated voice.

"The child of destiny is gone."

"What!?"

Unanimous exclamations sounded from the room.

The child of destiny is the existence that the Great Toad Immortal of Miaomu Mountain has been pursuing!

Jiraiya spent half his life searching for the child of destiny, spending the best time of his life, how could he just disappear in such a good way? ? ?

"it is true……"

Jiraiya looked bitter.

He still remembered his shock and disbelief when he was suddenly called to Miaomu Mountain by the Great Toad Immortal not long ago, telling him that the child of destiny had disappeared and there was no need to look for him.

That was a hundred times more shocked than Tsunade and Orochimaru were now.

It was as if the whole world collapsed and fell into a dark cave with no light.

"The Child of Destiny... is gone?"

"Yes, little Jiraiya, I know it's hard for you to believe, but this is the outcome I have predicted many times."

"In fact, the Child of Destiny has disappeared for two and a half years, but I was not sure at that time. After having the same prophetic dream many times, I was finally sure of this result."

The turbid eyes of the Great Toad Sage slowly moved down, resting on Jiraiya with an indescribable emotion.

"In addition, the ninja world in the future has also undergone earth-shaking changes. I can't predict whether this change will be good or bad, but what is certain is that the child of destiny will disappear in this change."

"Little Jiraiya, you can give up searching. In short, the Child of Destiny has disappeared."

At the wine table, Tsunade and Orochimaru fell into silence at the same time after listening to Jiraiya's description.

This news is so exciting!

Behind them, they each represent the two holy places of Longdi Cave and Shigu Forest. Among the three holy places, only Miaomu Mountain has been pursuing the so-called son of prophecy.

They, who are also representatives of the Holy Land, are very aware of the prophetic ability of the Great Toad Immortal.

It was precisely this that made the news conveyed by Jiraiya even more shocking.

How come everything is so good, but the child of destiny is gone? ? ?

"Jiraiya, what are you going to do now?"

Tsunade asked after a long silence.

"I don't know, just take it one step at a time."

Jiraiya sighed with a headache. He really didn't know what to do now.

The thing he had been pursuing for half his life burst like a bubble, leaving him in deep confusion.

"Let's go find the future later. As Minato's younger brother, maybe I can find myself a job or something."

…

Hokage room.

"You said you want me to find you a job?"

Namikaze Mirai, who was sitting on the Hokage's seat, stared at Jiraiya in surprise.

On the first day after returning to the village, I found myself as the Hokage. Do you want to get an official position?

"I don't want to either, but I really don't know what to do now. In the future, for Minato's sake, you won't refuse to help with such a small favor, right?"

Then, Jiraiya told the story about the disappearance of the Child of Destiny.

Namikaze Mirai shook his head.

"There is no scientific basis for such a illusory thing as Destiny's Child."

As a staunch supporter of Marxist materialism, he would not believe such baseless things.

It's okay if it's gone, Jiraiya can save his time and continue to waste his time.

Jiraiya's expression suddenly became serious, he looked at Namikaze Mirai and said solemnly: "Mirai, I suddenly feel that you are the child of destiny!"

? ? ?

Namikaze Mirai was stunned.

"That's right. In the future, you will be the child of destiny."

Recalling the rumors I heard about Namikaze Mirai on the way back to the village, the scenes I saw after returning to the village, and the villagers' admiration for Namikaze Mirai.

Jiraiya felt more and more that this guess was correct.

"In the future, you have changed the village and the Country of Fire. You will be the child of destiny!"

There seemed to be fire burning in Jiraiya's eyes.

The most important thing is that in the prophecy of the Great Toad Sage, the blue-eyed boy played with nine tailed beasts in the forest, and Namikaze will be the blue-eyed boy in the future.

Everything is right!

Namikaze Mirai is the child of prophecy.

"Stop! I don't want to argue with you about such boring things."

Namikaze Mirai, who could no longer describe his mood in words, did not want to waste time on such boring topics.

"But as for you looking for a job, it seems that I really need you for something here."

"What's up?"

Jiraiya held his breath.

"President of the Chuunin Exam!"
