Hokage’s strongest sword

Clues From Mythology

Leaving aside the various conflicts between the new and old members of Kakashi’s team, we refocused our attention on Minato’s Hokage office. Originally, he was still buried in the thick piles of documents on his desk, but suddenly he seemed to notice something, and his head, which was drooping among the papers, suddenly lifted up.

With a look of doubt and curiosity, Minato looked around, then waved his hand and invited out all the Anbu who were hiding in his office to protect him. Minato straightened his clothes, stood up from his chair, took a few steps, and Minato finally spoke:

“Come out, it’s hard to come to my place once, and you still have to sneak in. Those Anbu have been removed by me, and you don’t have to worry about any information being heard by me.”

A figure suddenly appeared on the window frame of Hokage’s office, squatted down and said to Minato:

“Minato, do we still need to talk about these things? I came this time, and the news I brought is not allowed to be known by anyone other than us. That’s why I will use a little trick to talk to you through sound transmission Yes.”

That’s right, Minato’s abnormal situation just now was due to Nangong Tetsu’s voice suddenly appearing in his ears. Although he didn’t know the reason, Minato knew that there must be something special to make Nangong Tetsu, who usually looks informal So cautious.

“Come down and talk if you have anything to say, it’s not a problem to squat on the window frame all the time.”

Seeing Nangong Zhe squatting on the window frame, Minato stretched out his hand to welcome Nangong Zhe down. And Nangong Zhe didn’t even say a word, but his body was shaking for a while. When Nangong Zhe appeared again, he was already sitting on the sofa in Minato’s office.

“Others say that you, Nangongzhe, have been willing to fall for three years, and even gave up your own swordsmanship. But I have always believed that people like Nangongzhe will never fall naturally, they will only do it to let themselves go further. Make various attempts. For example, ‘upper body Tianxin’, isn’t it?”

Hearing the words “upper body Tianxin” suddenly came out of Minato’s mouth, Nangong Zhe didn’t seem to respond at all. Seeing Nangong Zhe who still looked very calm, a touch of helplessness for failing to prank suddenly flashed in Minato’s eyes shine.

“Minato, you’re over the top. I just want to spend time with my family. Although I think my strength is not bad, the water in the ninja world is actually deep. Maybe one day, I will die directly Dao Xiao. So since the current situation has been relatively peaceful these few years, I naturally want to spend more time with my family so as not to leave regrets in the future.”

Nangong Zhe waved his hand, speaking as if he really had no desires or desires. When Minato heard Nangongzhe’s words, he didn’t have any intention to refute, but said to Nangongzhe with a little envy:”You are still open-minded. Unlike me, who carry the lives of the whole village on my back, I really have no time to take care of my wife and children. I really feel guilty. I don’t know if Nangong Shangren is willing to temporarily give up sharing time with your family and go to Sand After Ninja Village went to the country of Kawa, I don’t know why I stayed in some hidden place for several days?”

Nangong Tetsu was not surprised that Minato knew his whereabouts. After all, he appeared in front of Kakashi and Naruto unabashedly, and even frightened Uchiha Itachi who used the “Xiangzhunjutsu” Kisame and Kisame were also ready to be found by Minato.

“Of course it has enough value, otherwise I wouldn’t want to leave my home and run to such a desolate place…”

As he spoke, Nangong Zhe took out a somewhat worn-out parchment scroll from his pocket. The seemingly rotten shaft and the moth-eaten paper made Minato not so willing to hold it in his hands, but since Nangong Zhe had handed it over, Minato still took it in his hands.

“I think I may have discovered the purpose of Akatsuki’s organization!”

Before Minato opened the scroll in his hand, Nangong Zhe directly threw out such a blockbuster.

Hastily unfolding the scroll in his hand, Minato carefully read the words and pictures in it. The language used on this scroll is very ancient, but with some abstract pictures that appear from time to time, Minato can still roughly understand the meaning.

What is described in the scroll is a story that is almost mythical, telling the story of the legendary ancestor of the ninja-Senren of the Six Paths. The Sage of the Six Paths is a well-known mythical figure. Even Minato didn’t know how many fairy tales about the Sage of the Six Paths when he was a child.

But most of these stories seem very absurd, simply beyond human cognition, so no matter who they are, they only regard these stories as stories to coax children, and some people even suspect that the Six Paths Immortals are fictional existences.

As for the scroll in Minato’s hand, if he had to give it a name, probably “Complete Mythology of the Six Paths Immortals” would be more suitable for it, right? Looking at one of the absurd and legendary stories, Minato didn’t seem to relax at all. On the contrary, he was very serious and almost analyzed word by word.

And Nangong Zhe didn’t remind Minato what he meant, instead he watched Minato study these incomprehensible words and vocabulary with interest. Finally, after a while, Minato saw a word ‘Ten Tails’ that made him very interested! It is a well-known fact that there are only Nine Tailed Beasts in the ninja world, but suddenly I heard an existence called ‘Ten Tailed Beasts’ that is very close to the Tailed Beasts.

Seeing Minato’s eyes suddenly shining brightly at this moment, Nangong Tetsu knew that Minato had seen the really important message.

“Did you find out?”

Nangong Zhe was the first to speak to Minato.

“I really didn’t expect that there are more than nine tailed beasts…” Minato sighed a little, but his eyes did not leave the scroll, and then he shook his head and said: “No, you can’t say that. It should be said that the tailed beasts Is the beast originally one?”

Minato didn’t doubt whether the scroll in his hand was fabricated by Nangong Zhe himself, because Nangong Zhe had no need to deceive himself in such a matter. Although the stories told in this scroll are still myths one by one, are the myths not connected with reality at all?

“If I’m not mistaken, the purpose of Akatsuki’s organization is nine out of ten the ten tails mentioned in this scroll. Since the nine tailed beasts can be the source of strength for Jinchuriki, why can’t the ten tails?”
