Pokémon: The Hoenn Champion is my younger brother

The Nine-Tails was completely sealed and was divided into Yin and Yang by Minato according to the Chakra attributes. The Yin Nine-Tails was sealed in Minato's body and offered to the God of Death together with Minato's soul, while the Yang Nine-Tails was sealed in the young Naruto.

Che came to the Minato couple. Minato's soul had been taken away by the God of Death, and Kushina was also dying.

"Sorry, I can't save you."

The two's situation is no longer something that can be cured by the reversal technique.

Even if it is a serious injury like Yuhi Shinku, Che can heal it with the reversal technique under the six-eyed Mangekyō.

But the situation of the Minato couple cannot be cured.

This is because Minato's death was caused by the extraction of the soul. The reversal technique can heal the body but cannot restore the soul.

As for Kushina, her vitality was extracted when the tailed beast was extracted. Strictly speaking, this is not an injury, but more like the end of life, which is not within the scope of reversal techniques.

So facing these two people, Che was really helpless.

Kushina just smiled reluctantly, and said to Che with her last strength: "It doesn't matter... This is our choice..."

"It's just... Naruto..."

Kushina's voice became smaller and smaller, and at the end, her pale lips were trembling.

"I understand, whether it is public or private, I will help take care of Naruto."

Che half-knelt solemnly in front of Kushina, looking at Naruto lying on the small bed in the center of the altar.

Kushina turned back and looked deeply at Naruto, as if to imprint Naruto's appearance in her mind forever.

In the end, Kushina and Minato leaned against the small bed, and the two of them were close together, as if they were just accompanying Naruto to sleep together.

Che lowered his head, unable to bear to see such a sad scene.

You know, this is the first day of the family of three to get together.

"It seems that we are a step late..." At this time, Sarutobi Hiruzen brought several subordinates through the barrier that no longer existed and came to the altar.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed deeply when he saw the Minato couple leaning on the bed.

"Ah... why do this, Minato."

"Even if you want to use the Shiki Fuujin to seal the Nine-Tails, you should let an old man like me sacrifice his life."

Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the Minato couple with a sigh, and looked at Che and asked: "Che, what did Kushina just say to you?"

"She asked me to take good care of Naruto." Che stood up.

"Well, Naruto's life is too hard, so he should be taken care of." Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded with his hands behind his back, looking at the little Naruto who was completely unaware of his fate on the small bed, with a look of compassion in his eyes.

"It's just... Naruto's identity is special, so some things must be concealed."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were fixed on the Bagua seal on Naruto's abdomen.

"Konoha will thank Minato for his selflessness..."

Che did not comment.

Che understood what Sarutobi Hiruzen meant.

There are many ways to deal with the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

Kushina can strangle the Nine-Tails directly with the Diamond Seal, Minato can completely seal the Nine-Tails' soul with the Shikigami Fujin, and even let Kushina open the barrier and let Sarutobi Hiruzen seal it.

But Minato chose to sacrifice himself and Naruto, weakening the power of the Nine-Tails while leaving the fire of Jinchūriki to Konoha.

The reason why it is said to be sacrificing Naruto is that the tailed beasts not only mean powerful power, but also mean that the Jinchūriki will have to pay a considerable price.

Because powerful power is often accompanied by fear.

As the bearer of the power of the tailed beasts, the Jinchūriki shoulders the mission of protecting the village and fighting for the village, but is often feared by the villagers he protects.

Jinchūriki often grows up alone since childhood and is also ostracized by the villagers.

This is too cruel for Naruto, who has already lost his parents.

"So, Lord Hokage is going to hide Naruto's identity?"

Che asked, looking at Sarutobi Hiruzen's face, which seemed to have aged a lot.

The Nine-Tails Rebellion tonight destroyed countless families in Konoha, including Minato's family.

But in fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen's family was not spared. His wife, who was Kushina's midwife, was also killed by the mysterious masked man, and the news of her death has reached Sarutobi Hiruzen's ears.

Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded, "Whether it is the identity of the fourth generation's son or the identity of the Jinchūriki, it will bring unwarranted disaster to this child."

"So I plan to conceal Naruto's true identity and only say that he is an orphan of the Uzumaki clan, and not reveal that his father is the fourth generation."

Che retorted: "But Naruto's life will be difficult in this way."

"Konoha's pension subsidy is enough for this child to grow up normally. When he grows up, I will tell him the truth."

Sarutobi Hiruzen said so.

Che said again: "I canAdopt Naruto. "

Che was not optimistic about the so-called subsidy.

Konoha's finances were not independent, mostly relying on ninja rewards and remittances from daimyo, so the amount of subsidy was worrying.

And for a child who has not yet grown up, financial subsidies are secondary, and what is more important is companionship.

So Che proposed: "Why not let me raise Naruto? This is the commission of Master Kushina, and my strength is enough to suppress the Nine-Tails."

"No!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen reacted extremely strongly and quickly rejected Che's proposal.

Then Sarutobi Hiruzen eased down and explained: "Che, it's not that I don't trust you, but your identity is really not suitable for too much contact with Naruto."

"You also saw that the Nine-Tails ran wild tonight, and its eyes were Sharingan."

"The village even spread some messages that were not favorable to the Uchiha clan, so you are not suitable... Because of your relationship with the Yuhi family, even if you let Shinku and his daughter raise him, it won't work. "

Che was not surprised by this, but was more disappointed with the current high-ranking officials of Konoha.

During the Nine-Tails Rebellion, all the ninjas of the Uchiha clan completed the task of protecting civilians under surveillance, but they were still suspected by the high-ranking officials of Konoha.

Che was not incomprehensible, but this suspicion made Che very uncomfortable.

"I know." Che said lightly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen then picked up Naruto with confidence, and at the same time instructed the ninjas behind him: "I will go to settle Naruto, and you go to bring the remains of the Fourth Generation couple back to the village."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."
