Hokage’s strongest sword

Naruto’s open-mindedness

After a day’s work, even though Minato is already a Kage-level powerhouse, a high-intensity job like Hokage still makes Minato’s forehead ache. Fighting wits and courage with those old foxes is really exhausting brain cells!

“Mom, mom! I was so powerful at the time, Sasuke, that stinky guy, was beaten so hard that he couldn’t fight at all. It was me who suddenly broke out with a super powerful chakra and saved him. Although The voice from the sewer is a bit scary…”

Before entering the door, Minato heard his son Uzumaki Naruto chattering to his mother, Kushina, about his various deeds in the country of Nami. Of course, it is still necessary to exaggerate his own role and then belittle Sasuke. This kind of behavior is already common to both Minato and Kushina.

“I am back……”

Opening the door of his house, he took off the royal robe on his body and hung it on the hanger at the door, and the water gate shouted towards his house.

Hearing the sound of Minato, Kushina also hurried to the door of his house, and went to welcome Minato back home. On the contrary, Naruto’s original excited face turned a little cold in an instant, and he didn’t follow Kushina to the door of his house to meet his father.

“Welcome back, Minato. Just now, Naruto told me a lot about the mission. I didn’t expect that even the rebellion of Mist Ninja would be involved. Fortunately, little Kakashi is still doing his duty. I didn’t let Naruto get hurt, otherwise I would have come to find him!”

Speaking of this, Kushina completely lost the gentle state in front of Naruto, but instead had blood-red hair flying, which made people feel very scary. Kushina was also Konoha’s top bully back then, a tough girl known as ‘Blood Pepper’. Minato also gently wiped off a drop of sweat on his forehead that he didn’t know if it was real, smiled apologetically at Kushina, and even demoted Kakashi to nothing. If Kakashi knew that his teacher actually said that about him, maybe he could only cry bitterly in the toilet holding his own dear heaven?

Now that the whole family is here, it is natural to start preparing dinner. Naruto himself doesn’t know how to cook, so such things are naturally out of Naruto’s turn. Kushina has been preparing meals at home all these years, and since Minato came back, she has helped Kushina from time to time. If outsiders see her, they will definitely not be able to help admiring ‘family harmony’. But for some reason, Naruto still has some repulsion towards his father. After such a long time, although there is no cold war between the two, they still maintain a certain distance, without the intimacy when Naruto and Kushina were together.

“Naruto, come and clear the table, and then bring the food to the table.”

Seeing that the food was almost done, Kushina shouted to Naruto who was watching TV in the living room. Naruto was also very skillful in arranging the things on the table, and together with Kushina, they will cook Good meals are brought to the table.

“Naruto……”

While eating, Minato suddenly called Naruto’s name. Naruto didn’t lift his head, but just ate the food in his own bowl. Seeing Naruto’s reaction, Kushina slapped Naruto’s back directly, and said to Naruto:

“Dad called you, and you didn’t respond?”

Naruto also impatiently put down the rice bowl in his hand, looked at the water gate and said:

“is there anything?”

Although Naruto’s attitude is not so good, but Minato is not angry, because he has let down his wife and children, and now Naruto has a grudge against him, such a thing is really normal.

“Did you fight a ninja who used ice escape in the land of waves, and a chakra that didn’t belong to you gushed out of your body?”

Cut… Did Mr. Kakashi tell you the secret?

“Yeah, what’s the matter?”

Naruto’s answer was neither cold nor cold, as if he didn’t think there was anything worth exploring in all of this.

“The Chakra that suddenly emerged in your body was the result of I sealed it into your body after Kyuubi broke free from the seal back then, so that you have such power. And in the Ninja World, there are eight other chakras just like you. Existence, we call such a person with a tailed beast in his body a ‘Jinchuriki’. Your mother, Kushina, was the former Kyuubi’s Jinchuriki. Now that you have gradually begun to use the power of the tailed beast in your body , then I want to give you a choice…”

After Minato said this, he paused slightly. Kushina thought it was nothing at first, but when Minato said that he was also a ‘Rinjuriki’, a sad look inevitably appeared in his eyes. No matter how optimistic one’s mentality is, the feeling of being hostile for no reason is still deeply engraved in Kushina’s heart, which is hard to dispel.

“Do you want me and your mother to completely seal the Nine-Tails in your body, so that he can only hide in your body, and never release your own Chakra to disturb your own Chakra in your body. Or I hope your mother can teach you how to use the power of Nine Tails, so that you can truly take on the identity of Jinchuriki?”

Now Naruto has no intention of getting angry with Minato, because Naruto knows that he is indeed facing an important choice. The nine tails in my body must be solved. Should I seal it completely or borrow the power of the tailed beast like all Jinchuriki? Naruto’s young heart is facing such an option that can determine his life at this moment.

“Minato, Naruto is still so young, you let him make such a choice now, isn’t it a bit…”

Kushina glanced at her child with some concern, and then looked at Minato with a little blame. There is no mother who does not think about her children. Now her children are obviously facing an extremely important choice in her life, and Jiu Xinna also raised her heart.

However, Naruto, who was originally silent, suddenly raised the rice bowl in front of him, and began to eat with big mouthfuls.

“I can’t make up my mind about this decision yet. Now that I know that I can’t know my choice in a short time, why don’t I just eat well and not let such troubles disturb me!”
