Chapter 559 The truth is always more hurtful than a lie

“After all, I’m just a dead old antique. Since it’s what the village needs, I won’t think too much about it.

By the way, has Lady Tsunade become the Fifth Hokage of the village?

Can you tell me what happened in the village after I died?"

"And what about Naruto?"

Minato was eager to know about the situation of his son Naruto.

What should I say?

Kakashi hesitated for a moment and could only look at Yan for help.

Minato couldn't help but wonder, couldn't I know these basic information?

Or did this kid Naruto...have an accident?

Minato's heart sank to the bottom.

Yan tilted his head, motioning Kakashi to stand aside and not interrupt.

Kakashi stood aside obediently.

"You just remembered that you have a son now? What were you doing earlier?"

Yan took two steps forward and gave Minato a direct blow.

"So Naruto..."

There was a hint of pleading in Minato's eyes, hoping that Yan could tell him all the news about Naruto, which was very important to him.

"Don't worry, he's not dead."

"Phew, that's good..."

"Then life is worse than death. It is more appropriate to describe it as living a life worse than death."

"......"

Minato, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was stunned.

He was very happy that Naruto was not dead, but Yan's next words made his heart sink.

Living is worse than death, is life worse than death?

"No, no, I've asked the Sandaime-sama to take care of Naruto, he won't..."

Minato was somewhat incoherent, and almost became autistic.

"It's because of him that Naruto has to live like that."

Yan spread his hands and shattered Minato's delusion, but Yan still gave him a reassurance first:

"Relax, Naruto is fine. He had a miserable life, but that was when he was a child. Naruto is doing well now."

"That's good."

Minato didn't know how to describe his mood at the moment. It was as if he was on a roller coaster, going up and down.

"that......."

Minato smiled sheepishly, "Can you tell me a little bit about Naruto?"

"Why didn't you think about your son's future life when you committed suicide for love?"

Yan asked back.

Minato: “….”

On the night of the Nine-Tails, the situation was very critical. Kushina was dying, and half of the Nine-Tails' chakra had been sealed in Naruto's body.

He had the chance to seal the remaining half of the Kyuubi within himself.

But Kushina was no longer able to do it, and Minato was heartbroken at that time.

In addition, the seal of the corpse requires a sacrifice, so he didn't dare to take the risk.

So he risked his life to seal the Yin Jiuwei.

If he had hesitated a little at that time, things would have taken a different turn.

The people around widened their eyes. In their understanding, the Fourth Hokage Minato Namikaze sacrificed himself in order to seal the Nine-Tails.

But when it came to Yan, it became a matter of accompanying his wife to commit suicide for love.

His wife died and he didn't want to live anymore, so he decided to die together with her.

This is such a big melon.

Forget it, I won’t bother you anymore.

Yan began to talk about Naruto.

"After your death, the Sandaime Hokage did take on the responsibility of taking care of Naruto, but he concealed Naruto's identity, and everyone thought Naruto was a war orphan."

This is in line with the Sandaime's personality. After all, Naruto's identity is too special, so...

Minato just felt a little grateful, but it was quickly ruthlessly shattered by Yan.

“And the village’s assistant Hokage, Danzo Shimura, felt that Naruto should be controlled, after all, he is the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

The Third Hokage refused, and Shimura Danzo turned around and leaked the news about Naruto, and led the villagers to target Naruto, letting everyone know that Naruto was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, a fox demon, and the culprit who caused the village to suffer heavy losses. "

"Just like the method used against Hatake Sakumo, use public opinion to guide them."

"........"

"Faced with what Danzo did, the Sandaime had no intention of stopping him. He just had a few words with Danzo and the matter was dropped.

Since he was three years old, Naruto had to live under countless contempts and targeting. He couldn't even buy food with money and could only eat expired milk and instant noodles.

These things were stolen secretly in the middle of the night by breaking into the door, otherwise he would have been hungry."

"As for Naruto's true identity, no one has mentioned it. The villagers will only transfer their hatred to Naruto."

"......"

Kakashi looked at his teacher who was clenching his fists and lowering his head. He opened his mouth to comfort him, but found that he could not speak.

Because he is also one of the fools and one of the victims.

After all, Yan mentioned his father, Hatake Sakumo.

Using public opinion, like targeting Hatake Sakumo?

Minato wanted to rush out and kill Danzo.

This piece of shit.

What a fucking dog! The Sandaime isn't much better!

It is obvious that they are being permissive. They even allow such a thing, especially a three-year-old child?

Aren’t the contributions I, Minato Namikaze, have made for the village enough?

Can’t the village accommodate my son?

"Naruto is very lonely and wants to have a warm home with his family by his side. He is kind-hearted and can only do bad things and cause damage to attract other people's attention.

Unfortunately, his behavior only made more people dislike him and hate him. To prevent himself from starving, Naruto once had to go to the river to catch fish. "

"For Naruto's actions, the Sandaime did not provide him with the correct guidance, nor did he punish him at all, causing Naruto to become more and more wild. Most importantly, Jiraiya searched the world for Orochimaru's traces, but the Sandaime kept telling him that Naruto was living a good life."

"........"

The truth always hurts more than a lie.

"What then?"

Minato's voice was a little hoarse.

He lowered his head, making it difficult to see the expression on his face.

However, anyone who is not stupid knows that Minato is in a state where he may explode at any time.

"Later, Jiraiya returned to the village. After discovering Naruto's current situation, he felt very regretful and stayed in the village to educate Naruto. He wanted to take Naruto away, but the Sandaime did not allow it."

"I remember that Naruto cried very sadly, but also very happy, because he had a family, Grandpa Jiraiya, even though this grandpa was unreliable and a pervert. Of course, Naruto was not a pushover either, and he was almost the same model as Jiraiya."

"At the time, I was in the Uchiha camp, and because I accidentally got close to Naruto, I was severely warned."

"........"

My Lord Assistant, it's all in the past. Could you please stop talking about this?

Shisui, who was standing behind Yan, wanted to dig a hole in the ground and crawl into it. Itachi, who was standing next to him, deliberately stared at Shisui for a few seconds, which made Shisui so angry that he turned around and glared at him.

It’s like you have no dark history!

You are not much better, be careful or I will expose your secrets.
