One day later, in the special care ward of Konoha Hospital

"Sister Tsunade, how is Minato doing?"

For safety reasons, Kushina was arranged to stay in the hospital for observation by the third generation.

Looking at Tsunade who had just returned from the field and was checking Minato's body, she couldn't help but asked eagerly.

"Well, as the old man said, there is nothing wrong with Minato's body, it's just that his soul is not in his body and he can't wake up."

"This is beyond the scope of medical skills. Sorry, sister, there is nothing I can do."

Tsunade's tone was as heavy as her proud breasts.

Because Kushina was a Uzumaki orphan brought back from the country of Uzumaki by Tsunade's grandmother Uzumaki Mito.

When Kushina was a child, the two of them As sisters, they have a very good relationship. Now that her lover looks like a good sister, Tsunade, who is known as the medical saint, feels helpless.

"how so...Even you..."

Kushina was almost desperate when she heard this.

Even Medical Saint Tsunade said this, which was tantamount to pronouncing Minato's death sentence! boom!

At this moment, the special care ward, which was strictly guarded by ANBU ninjas, was violently knocked open!

"I rushed back as soon as I heard the news. How about Minato? Is he okay?"

An anxious voice came from outside the door!

I saw that the person who came was tall, wearing a forehead protector with the word"oil" written on it, and had waist-length white hair.

On his dusty face, there were words under his eyes. There is a red line mark.

On his body, he wears a red outer coat and a brown inner shirt. As for the wooden clogs on his feet, they are the same style all year round! Toad Sage, who has the title of"Sannin" and is also Minato's master, is Lord Jiraiya!

""Keep your voice down, Jiraiya! This is a ward!"

Upon hearing this familiar shout, Tsunade scolded without any hesitation.

In order to avoid disturbing the patients, loud noises are prohibited in the hospital.

This is a rule set by Tsunade, the hospital director, herself!

"I heard that Minato was still alive after using the corpse ban. Is this true?"

Jiraiya was not annoyed after being scolded. He immediately lowered his voice and looked at Tsunade eagerly.

If it were according to his usual personality

, he would definitely touch his head after being scolded by Tsunade or punched by a blaster, haha He smiled awkwardly to relieve the embarrassment, but in his heart, Minato's situation was more important than anything else!

"Minato's body is indeed alive, but the soul in his body has been taken away by the God of Death, so..."

Tsunade shook her head helplessly.

As the granddaughter of Uzumaki Mito, she knew very well that this sealing technique inherited from the Uzumaki clan of the Whirlpool Country, a close relative of the Senju clan, had terrible side effects!

This was to make a deal with the god of death and sacrifice one's soul!

Although theoretically, as long as Minato's soul could be taken out of the belly of the god of death, there was a chance that he would wake up!

But how was that possible?

Looking at the entire ninja world, who could have such a heaven-defying ability?

At least in Tsunade's cognition, there was no such person!

Tsunade only said half of what she said, but Jiraiya already understood.

""Ah~"

He couldn't help but sigh, his heart full of sadness and self-blame.

He didn't expect that his beloved disciple, whom he had high hopes for, and who even made him think that he was the son of prophecy, Minato

, would end up in such a tragic end just one year after becoming Hokage for protecting Konoha!

He didn't ask any more questions, but walked silently to Minato's side, quietly looking at his sleeping beloved disciple, motionless.

After a while, Jiraiya raised his head again from the silence and walked to Kushina's bedside.

There was not only Minato's wife, but also Minato's child!

"What is this child's name?"

Jiraiya asked softly

"Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto."

Kushina answered while hugging Naruto who was also asleep.

Strange to say, Naruto has been sleeping all day, but if she feeds him, he still knows how to open his mouth.

Even if he is asleep, he does not forget to eat. , which actually made Kushina feel at ease a lot.

"Naruto?"

"Minato, he really used this name~"

Jiraiya couldn't help but sigh, looking at Naruto with a bit more love in his eyes.

During Kushina's pregnancy, he came to visit.

At that time, Minato I excitedly told myself that if I was born a boy, I would name the child after the protagonist of my book called"The Legend of Perseverance"!

"Naruto, Uzumaki Naruto...Why not Namikaze Naruto?"

After repeating these two sentences, Jiraiya discovered something unreasonable.

"It was the advice Minato gave before his death. He said that he was just a commoner and his surname itself was not important."

"Since the fall of the Uzumaki Kingdom, the Uzumaki clan has almost disappeared...."

"Therefore, Minato hopes that Naruto can inherit the surname of the Uzumaki clan so that the Uzumaki clan will not disappear into the dust of history...."

At this point, Kushina couldn't help but burst into tears.

According to the convention of the ninja world, children are generally given their father's surname.

Even for civilians, as long as they have a surname, it is the same!

So, the surname Namikaze is not important!

It's just that Minato took into account the destruction of his homeland, leaving his hometown alone, and suffering from homesickness. He just wanted to leave himself the thought of reviving the Uzumaki clan!

It seems that since he knew himself.

Minato, he has been thinking about himself silently!

And Naruto, who heard his mother crying, finally woke up from his coma!
