16 years old, fourth generation Mizukage

Chapter 180

"Master Watergate."

The atmosphere was so dignified that it didn't look like a party at all. After the conversation ended, Hatake Kakashi stood beside Namikaze Minato, watching Jiraiya's figure gradually disappear into the spacious street of Konoha, and his mood seemed a little unstable. asked:
"Master Jiraiya... Could it be that when he was investigating the matter of 'Root', those two people used illusion? It was the leader of 'Akatsuki', Nagato, and the one who was in the village when he was still in the village. Uchiha Shisui, who is famous for his illusion talent..."

"Unfortunately, although Jiraiya-sensei is not good at using illusions, as a sage who possesses celestial arts, he is still very powerful in resisting illusions. In this era, it is almost impossible for anyone to tamper with illusions silently. his cognition and thought."

Namikaze Minato shook his head and sighed, his handsome face showed a rare solemnity and awe, "Moreover, according to the information obtained by Mr. The actions and motives seem to be very suspicious, and it is not unusual for Jiraiya-sensei to make such a speculation based on the existing information."

"...But, this eye is just a 'gift' that Obito entrusted to me before he died in battle. It's just a three-god jade sharing eye, what is there to be peeped at by others?"

Kakashi Hatake raised his hand and touched his left eye with a complex expression. The feeling of standing side by side with his best friend Obito Uchiha slowly calmed down his restless mood, and he used something like After the anger burned out, he fell into an endlessly empty tone, muttering to himself.

"Sa, who knows? If we can figure this out, the distance between the 'root' organization and us won't be too far away."

Namikaze Minato was also a little curious about this. After standing with Kakashi in the evening wind for a while, he turned his head, looked at his disciple's profile and asked:
"Feeling stressed, Kakashi?"

"There's no way it won't be there, Minato-sensei."

Even though half of his face was covered by a mask, Hatake Kakashi's downcast expression was obvious, "Among the people who were killed this time, there were several seniors at the elite level who were far superior to me. The only member of the 'Root' organization who confronted the investigation team head-on, the Red Sand Scorpion, is also a monster with the ability to single-handedly kill the shadow of a village...

When I think of the Sharingan entrusted to me by Obito, it is actually being targeted by such a dangerous group of people, I can't help but worry that a person like me can really keep my companions and them behind me. something? "

"Why do you always want to protect something with your own strength, Kakashi?" Namikaze Minato gently put his hand on the disciple's head, and his strong and warm palm actually gave a peace of mind. The belief passed on, "You are Konoha's ninja, when you want to protect something, the whole Konoha will be the power you can borrow, isn't it?"

"...But Konoha is not the only one, Minato-sensei." Kakashi Hatake's mood was still depressed, "When everyone needs to use the power of the village to protect something, there will always be someone because of various reasons. I couldn’t get help for such a reason, and finally lost what I wanted to protect... Obito walked like this, Lin also walked like this, didn’t it?”

"Kakashi..."

Namikaze Minato wanted to say something to comfort Hatake Kakashi, but when he thought of the passing of Uchiha Obito and Nohara Rin, the comforting words that had already reached his lips were a little hard to say.

In the battle of Kannabi Bridge, I arrived at the last moment anyway, and rescued Hatake Kakashi and Nohara Rin who were surrounded by Iwain's Jonin.

But when Nohara Rin was taken away by Kirigakure and turned into a three-tailed Jinchuriki, and finally committed suicide and fell under Hatake Kakashi's Raikiri, neither my teacher nor Konoha's other ninjas gave me any help. Hatake Kakashi provided even a little help, and even until now, how Hatake Kakashi escaped from the siege of Hidden Fog is still a mystery full of doubts.

Under such circumstances, I said to Hatake Kakashi that the village can lend you its power to help you protect what you want to protect. It is really lacking in consideration.

"I'm sorry, Minato-sensei, I let you hear some unpleasant and frustrating words again," Hatake Kakashi pulled down his forehead, and hid the sharing eye that Uchiha Obito gave him in the into the darkness, then bowed slightly to Namikaze Minato, and said in a low voice: "If there is nothing else, I will go back first... I just heard this kind of news, Master Kushina should be very happy I need your teacher's explanation."

"Safe travels."

"Ah."

Namikaze Minato looked at Kakashi Hatake with a complicated expression and left the door of his house in an instant. He let out a long breath, and just about to turn around and enter the house, he saw Uzumaki Kushina leaning on the He walked out of the entrance, and was staring at himself with a pair of rare and gentle eyes.

"Kushina... when did it start?"

"Probably in the middle, when you and Kakashi shifted the topic to the second stage."

Uzumaki Kushina touched her stomach, walked slowly to Namikaze Minato, stood side by side with him, and looked at the sky filled with stars.

"You Hokage, what a disaster, Minato."

"No matter which senior's Hokage is in power, he will face many problems," Namakaze Minato shook his head with a wry smile, and listed everything:
"When the first generation of Hokage established Konoha Village, everyone didn't know how to go to make the new model of Ninja Village acceptable to everyone. They could only grope forward in the darkness that had not yet dissipated in the Warring States Period; shortly after the second generation of Hokage came to power, the first The first Ninja World War officially broke out; the third Hokage was even appointed as Hokage by the second Hokage who was about to die in the critical situation of being chased by the enemy...

In contrast, my start was already very peaceful. It was not until now, two years after I became Hokage, that there was a crisis that threatened the village... In this case, as Hokage, I could not Complaining that his tenure has been a disaster. "

"Oh, I just like the way you always make people feel at ease."

Kushina held Namikaze Minato's arm, and pressed part of his own weight on the opponent's body, then raised his finger and pointed in the direction of the Uchiha clan, and asked in a low voice:

"Then, about Uchiha Shisui, do you want to speak to the Uchiha clan soon?"

"I haven't made up my mind yet."

Namikaze Minato supported Kushina's body, and sighed: "For the Uchiha clan, I'm afraid they can't accept Uchiha Shisui, a genius they are proud of, but chose to betray Konoha and The fact that the family has taken refuge in Kirigakure, as soon as the news comes out, the factional struggle within them will probably intensify and become white-hot.

But Uchiha Shisui has already taken the position of Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen. Obviously, this matter can't be hidden for too long. The status will be hit like never before, and it may even lead to distrust of the Uchiha clan in the whole village similar to when Uchiha Madara led Kyuubi to attack Konoha. "

"Then, how about just telling Fuyue?" Uzumaki Kushina thought for a while, and gave a non-constructive suggestion, "If it was him, he should be able to grasp the speed at which time the news can be released. Bar?"

"... Uchiha Shisui was forcibly taken away by Kaguya Rei in front of Fuyue. If Fuyue had to bear the fact of Shisui's betrayal, it would be too painful for him gone."

Namikaze Minato shook his head and denied this proposal, which was too heavy for him personally, and sighed with a troubled expression:
"Unfortunately, at this time, it would be great if Nara Shikahisa's wisdom could be used... But with his character, it is impossible to hide this kind of thing from the third generation and the two Hokage advisors. If they also intervene, The problem is about to become more troublesome..."

"Mr. Jiraiya, you really brought me back a very difficult problem."

"But you will figure out a way to solve it, right, Minato?" Uzumaki Kushina poked Namikaze Minato's back confidently and asked with bright eyes.

"Do your best."

It's very rare that Minato Namikaze didn't make a promise that he would definitely keep it.

Because this time, his opponent is no longer the enemy from the outer village who can be defeated as long as he just kills, but he used to fight side by side to protect Konoha, and contribute to the construction of Konoha together, and even smile every day when they meet Say hello to a companion.

The yellow flash can eliminate all enemies on the battlefield in an instant, but it can't break the prejudice and contradictions in the hearts of the companions against each other in an instant.

"And this will be the reason for your defeat, Minato-sensei."

Obito Uchiha and Bai Jue's avatars stood on a mountain where they could see the lights of Konoha in the distance. He gently tossed a scroll in his hand, and asked Bai Jue beside him:

"How about it, can the infiltration channel reserved by the 'Root' people still be used normally?"

"Of course, they are one of the important components of Konoha's defense system. On the premise that Konoha has not changed its own defense system significantly, trying to sneak into Konoha is like walking on an unmanned road in the early morning Simple."

"Then, let's find an opportunity to let the ninjas in the 'root' department throw in the latest information about Uchiha Shisui... We must let Konoha mess up first, so that we can better hide our purpose."

"Yes."

　Throwing up, I ate something wrong today, I have been running to the toilet...

　　Wait until Chapter 2 may have to be released first and then changed
