Chapter 114 A Day in the Life of the Fourth Hokage (2-in-1)

Only those with time and space abilities can deal with those with time and space abilities.

Obito didn't know whether Byakuya was reminding him or a new round of taunting him, but if he wanted to weaken Konoha's strength, he really could only start with Namikaze Minato.

As a disciple of Minato, he was very familiar with Namikaze Minato's Flying Thunder God Technique.

It can be said that without Namikaze Minato, the war between Konoha and Iwagakure might still be won, but it would definitely come at a huge price.

After all, the entire Konoha outpost had collapsed at that time, with only a few people left.

Later, Namikaze Minato led them to attack the Iwagakure ninjas, and single-handedly pushed the front line forward dozens of kilometers.

It was these achievements that were recognized by frontline ninjas and made him the Fourth Hokage.

It's a pity that Namikaze Minato was able to protect the thousands of Konoha ninjas in the Iwagakure War, but he couldn't protect the members of Minato's squad. He would always be late at the most critical moment.

If he attacks Minato and the Konoha Ninja Village, will he be a step too late?

Obito had evil thoughts in his mind, but he quickly threw them away. How could he be evil? This cruel world is just a game.

The only world where Lin exists and can enjoy a peaceful life is the real world.

Obito emphasized this point repeatedly in his mind and tried to give himself psychological hints. The Sharingan seemed to be stimulated by some kind of stimulation and became more and more vivid.

In order to prevent Black Zetsu and Byakuya from seeing anything strange, Obito used his divine power and stepped into the whirlpool.

Black Zetsu glanced at Obito who was leaving, and said to Byakuya: "Byakuya, do you want him to deal with the Fourth Hokage?"

Byakuya said ambiguously: "The decision is in his hands, but Black Zetsu-senpai, I am a little curious about the identity of the masked man. Is he really Madara's heir? Didn't Madara leave Konoha alone back then?"

"Madara left Konoha alone...but not all Uchiha are willing to stay in Konoha."

Black Zetsu looked at Byakuya and continued: "He is a very special Uchiha. He once had some relationship with Konoha, but now it is more of hatred."

"Senior Black Zetsu really knows how to play..."

Bai Ye sighed, then seemed to remember something, and said, "But his experience and personality seem familiar to me. I seem to have seen him somewhere."

"Although he tried to show a tough look, he was very confused in his heart."

Black Zetsu's face changed slightly. He almost forgot that Byakuya and Obito had met before. With Byakuya's ability, it was very easy to remember Obito's appearance and personality.

If Byakuya discovers Obito's true identity...

That doesn't seem to be a big deal. Byakuya and Obito are both tools for him to resurrect his mother. As long as one of them plays a role, it is enough.

Thinking of this, Hei Jue chuckled and said, "Really? Maybe you have met before, but he is now Madara's heir, and his previous identity is no longer important."

"Senior Hei Ze is right. His previous identity is no longer important."

Bai Ye nodded and agreed with Hei Zetsu's words. Things like identity have never been important. He had almost forgotten what his identity was before joining the Akatsuki organization.

…

While Byakuya and Black Zetsu were discussing a shocking conspiracy, the inauguration ceremony of the Fourth Hokage was being held in Konoha.

When the Third Hokage handed the hat that symbolized the Hokage's power to Minato Namikaze, Minato Namikaze took the hat, put on the Hokage hat, and shouted to the audience:

"Thank you for your recognition. I am willing to protect Konoha with my life."

As soon as these words came out, there was a burst of warm applause from the audience, and everyone looked at Namikaze Minato.

After the handover ceremony between the old and the new is over, it means that the era of the rule of the third generation of Hokage is over and a new era is about to begin.

But no one knows whether it belongs to the era of the Yondaime or the era of the twin Hokages.

Without wasting time, after moving into the Hokage building, Namikaze Minato started working with the assistance of several consultant elders. The heavy work made Namikaze Minato immediately realize the difficulty of the Hokage.

Even with the assistance of the Third Hokage, Namikaze Minato still worked until dusk.

After returning home, Kushina was cooking in the kitchen. When she saw Minato, she chuckled:

"Our Yondaime is finally back. How does it feel to be Hokage on the first day? I remember our dream in Ninja School was to become Hokage, and now this dream has come true."

Namikaze Minato walked towards the kitchen, and while helping to cut vegetables, he sighed: "Being Hokage is more difficult than I thought. If it weren't for the Sandaime's help, I probably wouldn't be able to complete the basic work today."

"That's how it is at the beginning, you'll get used to it later, and I will silently support you behind your back."

Namikaze Minato said half-jokingly: "Then thank you Kushina-sama for your support."

Kushina nodded with satisfaction: "That's not bad, but our Hokage-sama should go to the table first, the meal will be served soon."

Namikaze Minato followed suit, and the two soon came to the dining table and started chatting while eating.

Of course, it was mainly Namikaze Minato who was the Hokage who was complaining, Kushina just listened silently, and there were also some small complaints from Namikaze Minato.

Before becoming Hokage, Minato thought that Hokage's power was unlimited.

As long as you become Hokage, you can immediately change the bad situation in the village. However, in fact, Hokage does have great power, but if you want your orders to be carried out, you must cultivate your own ANBU.

Although the Anbu under the Third Hokage nominally belong to the village, they are actually the Third Hokage's private army.

It would be okay if there was no conflict with the Third Generation. Once a conflict broke out, these Anbu would only obey the Third Generation's orders, not themselves.

And it is not easy to form an army of your own.

It will take half a year or even several years, and during this period, his power will inevitably be checked and balanced, and he will be unable to do anything even if he wants to.

And finding allies is also extremely critical.

Due to the master-student relationship, Jiraiya-sensei is his ally, and Ino Shikacho, who once had a friendship with his teammates, can also be considered a hard-core ally.

But these alone can only maintain self-protection, and it will be difficult to exert more force unless there is another strong support.

These are not the only things that Naruto needs to deal with.

The ninja school, communication with daimyo, and the conflicts and balance among the ninja clan in the village are all things that the Hokage needs to consider. He also does a series of tasks such as issuing commissions and cultivating talents part-time.

Just hearing this gave Kushina a headache.

However, she knew that Minato Namikaze needed allies, so she said: "Minato, I have a good relationship with Mikoto. How about I invite her and Fugaku to my house for a while and chat with Fugaku?"

Namikaze Minato quickly understood Kushina's intention, which was to ask him to cooperate with Uchiha.

He did have the idea of ​​visiting several major ninja clans in the future, and Uchiha was one of the contradictions that he could not get around, so he nodded.

After talking about the village and the ninja clan, Kushina seemed to have remembered something and said:

"By the way, there's one more thing. That kid Kakashi doesn't seem to have come out of the shadows recently. Otherwise, he could become a member of your ANBU. Alas, I'll go over and take a look at him tomorrow."

After hearing Kakashi's name, Namikaze Minato's expression darkened a bit.

After experiencing the war between Iwagakure and Kirigakure, only Kakashi is left in the Minato class back then. Not only did the two children, Rin and Obito, die heroically, they didn't even leave their bodies behind.

It would have been nice if he had been faster at that time, but unfortunately it was always a step too late.

This is simply a curse.

Kushina could see that Namikaze Minato was in a bad mood and comforted her: "This is war, and not many of our classmates from that class survived."

"When Iwagakure takes the initiative to sign the treaty, you can enjoy a peaceful time."

Namikaze Minato nodded, and then said: "I plan to arrange Kakashi to perform tasks in the Anbu. If he continues like this, he will cause tragedy sooner or later."

Kushina said with some confusion: "The ANBU is so dark, doesn't this irritate him even more?"

Namikaze Minato came to Kushina's side, shook his head and said:

"Have you forgotten that I am Hokage? I arranged the mission content, and I plan to let Kakashi protect it until our child is born."

Kushina smiled and said: "I didn't think carefully. It seems that pregnancy will really make me stupid."

"How could it be?" Namikaze Minato leaned over and listened to the heartbeat, and then said: "Kushina, you have always been so smart, you are just a little anxious."

At this time, Namikaze Minato seemed to suddenly remember something and said: "By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you. It is a piece of news from Amegakure Village."

"What news? Good news or bad news?" Kushina looked confused.

Namikaze Minato said quickly: "This is good news. Do you still remember the three children that Mr. Jiraiya taught in the Land of Rain?"

Kushina nodded and asked a little strangely:

"Of course I remember, but they seemed to have lost contact with Jiraiya-sensei later on. Have you heard any news about them recently?"

Namikaze Minato did not continue to lie, and said directly: "They established an organization in the Land of Rain, and recently joined the Rain Hidden Village and became the leader of the Rain Hidden Village."

"Huh? Becoming the leader of Amegakure Village, Jiraiya-sensei's disciples are becoming more and more outstanding each one."

Kushina began to analyze seriously: "If we can get on the line as brothers, not only will the village not have to worry about large-scale attacks in the north, but it will even have a powerful ally."

"That's not what I meant...not from the Hokage's perspective."

Namikaze Minato was a little helpless towards Kushina. Kushina thought about everything for him.

After a pause, Namikaze Minato continued: "What I mean is that there are several Uzumaki ninjas in Amegakure Village. You still have clan members in the ninja world, so you are not alone."

"There are several Uzumaki ninjas in Amegakure Village?"

Kushina was stunned for a moment, she had always been used to living alone.

Except for Mito-sama, there is no one else who can come into contact with the tribe. After the demise of the Uzumaki Kingdom, the remaining tribe members either left for foreign lands or remained anonymous.

She couldn't see anyone either.

Now Minato Namikaze told her that she still had many clan members staying in the Amegakure Village, which was hard for her to accept for a while, but the happiness on her face couldn't deceive anyone.

Kushina couldn't wait to leave Konoha the next moment to find her clan members.

But at the next moment, Kushina gave up this idea. Her identity was very sensitive. She was the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki and also the Hokage's wife.

It's very difficult to leave the village, and those old guys won't agree to it.

And once people are taken out on a large scale, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of other ninja villages, and the Amegakure Village will also doubt Konoha's intentions.

After all, the relationship between Amegakure Village and Konoha is not very good, and the Uzumaki clan and Konoha are not harmonious, and can even be said to be enemies.

The bloody facts are there.

No matter what the reasons were for Konoha at the time, breaking the covenant was breaking the covenant. Konoha failed to protect the country of Whirlpool and violated the promises made by both parties.

After breaking her promise, she still became Konoha's Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki.

If it weren't for Mito-sama, if she hadn't met Minato at the ninja school, she would have been swallowed by the nine tails in her body.

As if he saw Kushina's thoughts, Namikaze Minato smiled and said:

"If I have the chance, I will invite Yahiko and the others to Konoha as guests. I am very interested in some of the concepts they have implemented in the Land of Rain. Yahiko is also a very interesting person, as you can see from the words in the letter."

"When the time comes, I will arrange for you to meet with Nagato, Kari and Byakuya."

When Byakuya's name was mentioned, Namikaze Minato was obviously stunned, because Byakuya had met him, and he didn't expect that Byakuya was also a ninja from the Uzumaki clan.

Moreover, what Byakuya said to Nohara Rin and Obito also left a deep impression on him.

Byakuya asked Nohara Rin to retire, saying that she was not suitable to be a ninja. As a result, Nohara Rin, who originally wanted to retire, was jointly persuaded by Kakashi and Obito to come back and died on the Kirigakure battlefield.

Byakuya extended an invitation to Kakashi and Obito, but neither Kakashi nor Obito accepted it.

As a result, Kakashi lost his eyes, Obito died in the pile of rocks, Byakuya's words seemed to have magic power, and all the ninjas who did not listen to his advice died.

"What's wrong?" Kushina asked curiously when she saw Namikaze Minato stunned.

Namikaze Minato dispersed the distracting thoughts in his head, chuckled and said:

"It's nothing, I just remembered Bai Ye and Xiao Nan. In fact, I met them before, but I didn't know whether they were friends or foes at the time."

Kushina was stunned for a moment, then said:

"Are there any of these things? Why haven't I heard you mention it? What does Bai Ye look like, how old is he? How is his strength?"

Namikaze Minato thought for a moment and said:

"She's about the same as Kakashi. He's about the same strength and age. He's quite sunny-looking. But when he looked at me, there was something wrong in his eyes. He seemed to have known my identity and position for a long time."

"Of course, the Uzumaki clan's perception is so strong."

Kushina boasted:

"Besides, you are an elite jounin in the village, and now you are the Hokage. It is normal for you to be remembered. Go take a shower quickly. You have to find Kakashi tomorrow."
