Chapter 52: Teacher Jiraiya almost made me suffer!

At this moment, in Konoha Village.

At the home of the fourth generation Minato.

Kushina was holding the baby Naruto who had just eaten and fell asleep, with a face full of tenderness and happiness.

These few days can be said to be her happiest time.

Naruto was safe and sound, eating and sleeping every day, waking up and smiling, and was particularly attached to her, which was extremely cute.

Minato could also put aside all the trivial matters, accompany her from morning to night, and make up for his debt to her when he was the Hokage.

Except that he could not leave home and could not be seen by others.

There were almost no shortcomings.

The family of three was more comfortable and at ease than ever before.

It can be said that.

This is the stable life that Kushina most yearns for and expects.

It forms the most striking contrast with the miserable life of wandering after the fall of [Whirlpool Country] when she was young.

At this moment, she was extremely fortunate.

She and Minato were both alive and did not let Naruto become an orphan.

If Naruto really became an orphan, even with the protection of Konoha, he would definitely have a hard time, right?

…

"Minato, how is the situation outside these days?"

Minato responded gently while scrubbing the diaper with sweat on his forehead:

"Don't worry. The suffering villagers have been resettled, and the damaged buildings are being repaired. Everyone is strong and will get through it."

"The casualties should be huge, right? They didn't have to die..."

Kushina's expression was slightly dim, and she was obviously a little self-blaming.

"Dear, this is not your fault. It's my fault for not protecting the village well, and it's the enemy who is too cunning, and it has nothing to do with you. You are Naruto's mother and my most beloved wife..."

"Minato..."

"Kushina..."

The two looked at each other, and the air became charming again.

…

"Knock, knock!" The knock on the door interrupted the affectionate look between the two.

Minato was startled and quickly washed his hands.

Kushina hugged Naruto and quickly huddled into the bed, pretending to be weak.

After a few seconds, the door was opened.

Minato realized that the person who came was Jiraiya!

"Teacher! It's you!"

Minato was overjoyed and very excited.

"Minato! It's great to see you, are you okay?"

"Where's Kushina? Where's your child?"

"Are they all okay?"

Jiraiya asked anxiously. After seeing that Minato was safe and sound, he was relieved, but there was still a half breath hanging in his heart.

He was traveling, and after receiving the news that 'Konoha was attacked and the Nine-tailed Fox had cholera in the village'.

Jiraiya rushed back without stopping.

He didn't even write his favorite novel, and didn't go to the bathhouse, just wanted to rush back to check on Minato and Naruto.

Minato didn't rush to answer, but looked around to make sure no one was following.

Then he pulled Jiraiya into the house and reopened the barrier.

Then he responded:

"They are all safe and sound."

"Really? But I heard rumors in the village that you and Kushina seemed to be seriously injured, and even Danzo took over your position..."

"This... The reasons are more complicated. I will explain it to you slowly later."

For Jiraiya, his most trusted teacher, Minato has nothing to worry about or hide.

The whole Konoha.

Besides Kushina, he trusts teacher Jiraiya the most.

"Kushina, you can come out now, it's Jiraiya teacher."

Minato shouted, and Kushina came out holding Naruto.

"Really, you scared me!"

"Jiraiya teacher, long time no see!"

After seeing Kushina safe, Jiraiya finally felt relieved.

"Kushina! Great, you are safe too."

"This child, is he Naruto?"

"Hahaha! What a cute little guy, he has the same hair color as you, Minato. I thought he would have red hair like Kushina!"

Jiraiya immediately came up and looked at the cute baby Naruto, teasing with great excitement.

After all, he was the one who named the child!

He is considered Naruto's third relative.

"Yeah, this child really looks like his father! He will grow up to be a ninja as good as Minato in the future!"

Kushina smiled sweetly, very happy.

"Don't be like this, I'm not good..." Minato smiled embarrassedly, touching his head.

"Hahaha! Why are you shy? Konoha's [Yellow Flash], there is no better ninja than you in the whole ninja world!" Jiraiya laughed, Minato was indeed the best ninja he had ever seen.

He even thought that Minato was the 'child of destiny' predicted by the great toad sage!

"By the way, Kushina, is your seal okay?"

"No problem, it's stabilized now."

"Oh, I didn't expect this kind of accident to happen. Why? You should have informed me when Kushina was due!"

Jiraiya felt a little regretful.

If he knew the time and rushed back to protect together, it is very likely that this [Nine-Tails Rebellion] would not have happened at all!

"We were careless."

"I thought it was secret enough, but I didn't expect it to be exposed."

If he really knew someone would attack.

Minato would definitely try his best to increase defense.

He would even invite Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Sarutobi and others.

At that time, let alone Obito. Even if all the members of the [Akatsuki] organization pressed on, they would have to think about it.

"As long as Naruto is safe, none of this matters."

"Minato, Jiraiya, you two chat. I'll make you some tea..."

Kushina put Naruto back in the cradle and went to make tea.

She knew that Minato and Jiraiya must have a lot to talk about.

...

Minato and Jiraiya sat down and started talking about business.

"Who is the attacker? I heard that the other party also has a Sharingan and can control the Nine-Tails?"

"Preliminary guess is that it might be Obito."

"What? Uchiha Obito? The apprentice you brought? How is it possible? Isn't he dead?"

Jiraiya was shocked and felt that his brain was almost not enough.

Minato didn't hide it and simply repeated everything that happened before.

This time.

The first generation Hokage Hashirama, the second generation Tobirama, Xiayou Sennin, Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Madara... and so on.

These information mixed together, but Jiraiya was stunned.

It took a while before he could barely react.

"Minato, you said all this is true? Did you really see the first and second generations? And that Xiayou sage?"

Jiraiya certainly didn't think Minato would lie to him.

But this situation is really incredible. It's hard to believe just by hearing about it.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes!"

"What about Uchiha Madara that the other party mentioned? And Obito and the Akatsuki organization? Have you confirmed it?"

"It's not completely confirmed yet."

"This..."

"Then you should be more cautious. What if, I just say what if, that Xiayou sage also has bad intentions?"

"Sir, he saved our family, he shouldn't be a bad guy!"

"Then how can you guarantee that his purpose will definitely benefit Konoha?"

"I..."

Jiraiya, who has been traveling for many years and is used to the dark side of the ninja world, will undoubtedly be more cautious and worried.

After all, he has not seen Xiayou and others with his own eyes.

"Minato, let's sort it out."

"In other words, the reason you temporarily gave up the power of Hokage was to get rid of those old guys in the upper echelons, to integrate the power of the village, and to deal with the threat from Uchiha Madara?"

"Yes!"

"For this reason, you pretended to protect Kushina and announced that you were seriously injured. In order to attract the covetousness of Kumogakure and let Kumogakure and Konoha break out in a war again?"

"Yes."

"Finally, take advantage of the fact that Danzo and his men are not doing well in the war and completely deprive them of their positions?"

"That's the plan."

Jiraiya nodded. This is indeed a good plan.

Otherwise, if you want to pull Danzo and his men down, you have to break out a civil war directly.

In that case, the casualties will only be greater, and it will be easier to be attacked by other villages.

"But, not long after the Third War ended, the Nine-Tails Rebellion broke out in the village. If we go to war with Kumogakure again, many people will die, right?"

"I know..."

"Perhaps, this is the purpose of the immortal Xia You? He fabricated an Uchiha Madara who is not sure whether he is still alive to incite you to go to war, so as to weaken Konoha?"

Jiraiya guessed worriedly.

Although Jiraiya also looked down on those old guys of Danzo and wanted to pull them down.

But if we want to start another war, some Konoha ninjas will have to be sacrificed.

Jiraiya was very unwilling in his heart.

"This..."

Faced with the guess of Jiraiya, the teacher he respected and trusted the most, Minato hesitated slightly.

He didn't doubt Xia You, but he couldn't help but worry about the sacrifices Konoha might make...

"Minato, I don't want to stir up trouble."

"I am also very grateful to that gentleman for saving you and Kushina. It was my fault for not protecting my apprentice when he needed me most."

"However, you also deeply understand the cruelty of war."

"It's just from the perspective of the village, I hope you can be more cautious. At least confirm the existence and purpose of Madara before making a decision, okay?"

Jiraiya's frankness made Minato more shaken.

"Teacher, I..."

But.

Just then.

"Bang--!"

The sound of a teacup falling to the ground and breaking came from the kitchen.

"Kushina!"

Minato flashed to Kushina's side, with a terrifying speed.

Kushina fell to her knees, touching her belly, frowning and crying out in pain:

"Ah! My belly is so hot..."

"What's going on? Kushina, you..."

"It's Uchiha Madara! He's summoning the Nine-Tails! The Nine-Tails told me!"
