[Hokage] Secrets of the Fathers [Fourth Generation Center]

However, on April 4th, the fog ninja and sand ninja cloud ninja, except for the rain ninja who had been detained, all the ninja villagers who came to take the chunin exams had left. The rain had not stopped for even one minute, which was strange. Ye is not a rain ninja village

"We can't just disperse the dark clouds like the last time the Chunin Exams opened."

"If it catches up to an important event like the opening, it will be dispersed. But on normal days, drizzle will randomly affect the weather and delay the growth of surrounding crops. But your research institute, can the weather forecast be more accurate?"

Fire Country Konoha Konoha Hospital

The entrance to the semi-underground Hokage ward

"No." Kabuto Yakushi couldn't help the chief of general staff who had moved but was still blocked.The institute has the obligation to provide weather forecasts, but he is now by the Hokage's side every day. Even if he changes shifts with Shizune, he is always making medicine or sleeping. I really don't know what mistakes those people under his command have made, so that watching Even if the rain doesn't stop, you still have the guts to put up a sign saying it will be sunny.But he couldn't give no explanation at all.The Konoha Research Institute burns more money than the intelligence system, and Genma is the big boss in charge of the accounts. "Actually, it's good if it rains. The Yondaime can already get out of bed and walk around. If it's sunny, it will be difficult to stop him from going out in a hurry."

Shiranui Genma was instantly convinced by Kabuto Yakushi.The hospital notified the top management of Hokage's physical condition three times a day. Judging from the data, he was indeed recovering day by day.Fortunately, it was not an organic disease as initially suspected, but simply overexertion and emotional excitement that damaged the myocardium.As long as you pay attention not to get tired again in the near future, and don't be overjoyed or sad suddenly, you will be completely healed when the myocardial damage recovers.Of course, the heart muscles are not those of the thighs and ankles, so it probably takes a lot longer. The most important thing is that the patient feels that he has recovered. "But now that I can get out of bed, can I visit you? Don't forget." The two of us are the same, the monitor won’t go off.”

"It has nothing to do with that. He needs to rest. Rest means staying away from work, and you are the chief of staff." Kabuto still refused, but his tone was much softer.He and Shiranui Genma were obviously two completely unrelated people, but this Konoha high-level executive had quickly become familiar with him and established trust with him in the past few days. Just because those three simple words did not ring out, "Your Excellency." , don’t you need to work?”

Genma felt that he was probably the most irresponsible chief of staff in the history of Konoha. He clearly had so many things to do, but he could not concentrate on work. Perhaps it was for seniors such as Dingza Shiwei, Nara Shikaku and Jiraiya. , Golden Flash is their closest comrade, but for them below, he is really a father who can protect them from wind and rain.For children like them who basically have no relatives, and those who have relatives who died very young, who else can help you protect yourself from the wind and rain? "By the way, the Konoha medical system has you, a genius in charge in your early twenties. , it is not unusual for our General Staff to have a 15-year-old genius who is very capable. His name is Nara Shikamaru, the biological son of the Minister of Intelligence, I will introduce you to him later."

"Okay." Kabuto knew that person. They had participated in the Chunin Exam together.

"Perhaps I shouldn't accept the position of chief of staff." Xuanjian continued to talk to himself, "I have been with Yidai for so many years, and he has never been able to stop the pain, but he didn't when I was here. It's been like this for the past two years, with pneumonia and tonsillitis again. This time it's better, my heart doesn't beat anymore, you say it's scary or not."

"That's quite bluffing." Kabuto could only agree.

"Hey, Kabuto." Genma suddenly lowered his voice.

"what"

"Is there really no sequelae? Report that kind of thing?"

"It's hard to say, but I haven't found any major problems yet."

"Actually, it doesn't matter if there are sequelae." A smile finally appeared on Genma's face. "After working hard for so many years, it's not bad to just retire and enjoy life. I originally thought that Kakashi wouldn't be able to do it, but in the past few days, it seems to be okay, at least better than four The fourth generation was much more disciplined when he first took office. The fourth generation was scolded by the third generation every day, and he still said the wrong things all the time."

"Hmm." Kabuto really didn't know what to say.As expected, being a spy and being born and raised in Konoha are not on the same frequency.

Genma just patted Kabuto on the shoulder and didn't care.Kabuto Yakushi is half a level below him and is considered a colleague, but he is still ten years younger than him. There is almost 20 years difference between him and the fourth generation. After all, they are not of the same generation. "Well, after all the hard work, you should have a good rest."

Kabuto watched Shiranui Genma walk away silently, carrying the snacks Genma gave him, and eating them while returning to the duty room.He still wasn't used to the enthusiasm among Konoha people, but at least next year's budget would probably keep him happy for a while.

But inside the ward door,

Our Hokage moved his ears but was a little unhappy.There is no Dingza, no Jiraiya-sensei, no Kakashi, and Genma’s Kenji doesn’t come in at all. He has scolded a bunch of people before, but before he could do anything excessive to Genma, Genma also disliked him. He said, "It's really annoying."

"Dad," Naruto hurried to the bed while brushing the cup, "Restrain."

Minato looked at the electrodes on his body and the heart monitor on the bedside, and took a deep breath, "Sorry, it's just that cracking the ninjutsu didn't go very well."

"Then don't read it." Naruto put away the scroll in his father's hand without peeking.Because he couldn't understand it at all, "Interesting things and relaxing things don't overlap, Dad. I really don't understand why Kabuto doesn't get you a few novels to pass the time."

For the sake of budget, Minato didn't understand why Kabuto suddenly treated him so well at first, but seeing as Tengenma was getting better and better with Kabuto these days, if Minato couldn't guess Kabuto's little thoughts, he would have lived 20 years longer than Kabuto in vain.It didn't help that Kabuto brought the information. He looked through it when he felt better in the past two days, but he had no clue.He knew how to reincarnate in the dirt, and how to create multiple shadow clones. There was only one spiritual transformation technique left. He didn't understand this technique when he was learning to fly the thunder god, and it was very difficult to learn it now.

"dad"

"I don't want to think about it anymore." Minato was very irritated, but he couldn't lose his temper with Naruto.His son even caught a cold because of exhaustion taking care of him. He didn't want to cause any more trouble to his son. This had nothing to do with whether Qinai was looking at him or not.He is a father, a father who is still in his prime even though he is a little older.Now I can't protect my son, and it will most likely become a drag, which is really unacceptable.In short, weakness is like gambling. If there is one, there will be two. If there are two, there will be three. If there are three, it will get out of hand.Minato really regretted how he longed for someone to rely on in front of Jiraiya-sensei.Otherwise, it won’t beep.

"dad"

"I'm sorry." Minato silently muttered to Kinai, Kinai holding the spatula, Kinai holding the rice spoon, and Kinai pressing him down, smiling, "By the way, son, it's been raining these days, do you have any If you haven’t returned to Bo Fengzhai, go take a look, and remember to pull out the mushrooms if they grow.”

""

"Hey Naruto, why don't you go wipe your mother's photo tomorrow." Minato completely put aside his troubles. After all, he wanted to continue to protect his son. First of all, he had to get well. "By the way, if you Dad is dead."

"dad"

"I'm older than you, so I will definitely die earlier than you." Minato felt that it was too early to say this to Naruto before, but this time he found that he was not as reliable as he thought, "Don't forget to wipe it even if I die, Also, if Konoha dares to demolish my Namikaze House, you must remember to make trouble with Kakashi. No, Kakashi will not do it. If Kakashi’s future Hokage wants to demolish our house, you must help Dad saved the old house."

"Okay." Naruto didn't like to hear his father say such things, but Kabuto told him to obey and don't make him angry. "Okay, at that time, my son, even if I am seventy or eighty years old, I will fight for my life to live in it. I am still in the house. , the house died and people died.”

"No, the house will be uninhabitable at that time.

people. "

""Naruto felt that his father was really difficult to deal with.

And Minato followed his train of thought and really started to think about Naruto's future.He had seen many of the suicide notes left by Fugaku with his own eyes, and the guy explained his funeral affairs in a very orderly manner.Minato has been trying to write in the past two days, but he just doesn't know what to write, "Naruto, Dad has been thinking for a long time, and it seems that there is really nothing left for you except the salary card that is already in your hand. Otherwise, While the land in Konoha is not tense yet, you should use the money to buy a piece of land first."

"What?" Naruto really didn't expect his father to say this.

"The ninja dormitory only has the right to use it, but not the right to buy or sell it or to modify it. The land also belongs to Konoha. In the future, the Hokage may not demolish it as soon as he slaps his head on it. And in the future, it will be enough if you get married, but your son and daughter If you get married, you can't live together and have to live separately. Although the couple can be considered a family, it is more lively if three generations live together."

"Dad, why are you thinking so far today?"

"Because I'm thinking about other things." Minato waved to the ANBU in the corner, "Help me get Konoha's residential information."

Naruto looked at the little Heihei who was floating all over the room in an instant and the various documents that were as high as the bed in a short while, with black lines all over his head, "Dad, are you serious?"

"Correct."

"This seems good." Minato studied the map of Konoha, "Naruto, come and take a look, this looks good too."

"Dad, let me see for myself. You lie down." Naruto reluctantly took the drawing out of his father's hand and laid the head of the bed flat. "It seems it has nothing to do with what you are thinking. You are tired."

"I feel fine."

"You feel useless." Naruto covered his father with a quilt, "It used to be a lack of oxygen in the brain, but now there is a lack of oxygen in the brain and a lack of heart."

Minato was so disappointed, he still had a lot to say to Naruto.

"Dad, I will watch it carefully." Naruto brought the noise to his father's eyes, "The bedtime entertainment is over, it's already 08:30, close your eyes."

Minato couldn't resist the weakness of his body and closed his eyes.

Naruto flipped through the map, waited until his father fell asleep, silently turned off the headlights, put away a bed of real estate advertisements and decoration plans, and really began to look forward to the brand new Namikaze House.It would be nice to have a new house, a bigger one. When my wife gets married, my father can live with him.I'm just a little sorry for Kakashi. Although he was not very happy when he moved into Hatake's house, after a while, it seems that there is no inconvenience like living in someone else's house as he imagined. Moreover, if he and his father move away , Kakashi would be very lonely if he was left alone.

"The fourth generation is asleep"

Naruto put the pieces of the album in his hand into the folder and nodded to Shizune who opened the door and came in.He suddenly understood why his father liked to help the single young people under his command introduce partners.Just like my father and mother back then.My father wakes up from the dormitory every day without anyone around him, and my mother comes to Konoha alone without any relatives.If mom and dad didn't fall in love and didn't form a family and live in the Namikaze House, they would just be two poor Konoha ninjas.

In the same way, Kakashi is a person, and Shizune the medical ninja is also a person.As my father said, love at first sight like that between him and his mother is actually very rare.In most relationships, you almost have to give each other a chance. Who knows if it will work out after looking at it everywhere.It's better to live together than to live alone all the time.Could it be that Kakashi really wanted to guard the eight ninja dogs and die quietly on the bed of Konoha Hospital? Shizune was lying in the nursing home holding a pink pig. Even if there were people taking care of her, they would be much younger than herself. The medic-nin didn't even have anyone to talk to.

Dad said that no matter how close young people are to old people, they can't truly understand the life that the elders have experienced. However, Naruto couldn't help but think about what would happen if two people formed a family and couldn't grow old together for the rest of their lives.He didn't know how other single-parent families in Konoha solved this problem, but his father was lying on the bed, begging his son pitifully to clean the windows, floors, and photos of his wife as always. His lifelong sustenance was an old house.

Naruto couldn't imagine that if he hadn't still had him and lost his beloved wife or, in other words, the father of a complete family, he would have simply died for love like in the novels and movies.Because he couldn't imagine how he would have spent his childhood as an orphan in the hustle and bustle of Konoha without his father. Finally, he pursued an equally lonely girl who had gone through all kinds of hardships and finally formed a family. I lost it immediately. It turns out that my wife is not only love, but also a relative and a home.

"What are you looking at"

"Sister Shizune is beautiful." Naruto turned his face sideways.

"Little brat, do you know what good-looking is?"

"Anyway, there are no unattractive kunoichi in Konoha." Naruto could now understand the reason why Shizune or Kakashi never took their father's matchmaking seriously and ran away from them everywhere.I have seen the countless joys and sorrows of my fathers, and the pain of leaving my father alone in this world. If we really just like each other and don’t hate each other and it won’t escalate into love, it’s better not to harm each other. “My father, please first Here you go, I’m going to take a look at my Shishimaru, and I don’t know if Kakashi will remember to walk the lion for me now that he’s so busy.”

"Go, go, your father won't have any sudden accidents again, believe me." Shizune didn't have much impression of Brother Minato's son in the past. She has been away from Konoha for a long time. Naruto and his entire generation Almost never seen it.However, she always felt that this group of people were generally much more mature and sensible than they were back then. "Believe me in Konoha Hospital, your father's allocation of so much money to the hospital every year is not in vain."

Naruto nodded, put on his ANBU mask, put on the internship logo, and left the ward.He was very lucky that his father still gave him the identity of an ANBU. Otherwise, let alone taking care of his father, even taking a look at him would have been troublesome.Not to mention using the various convenient passages under Konoha that only belong to ANBU.It takes a while to walk from the hospital to the Hokage Tower on the ground, and it only takes 5 minutes to walk through the secret tunnel. At that time, Dad was sent to the hospital in time. It was really entrusted to the ANBU of all generations to dig and build it.

"Password."

"Jiraiya is old and useless." Naruto thought so embarrassed. He didn't know how Jiraiya had offended the Anbu. These days, almost all of the passwords given by Jiraiya were the big bad guys. Jiraiya was ungrateful. Laiya has a toad's heart, while Jiraiya is a cold-blooded animal.However, the ANBU-senpai didn't stop him from going out because of his hesitation.After all, probably all the little Heihei grew up watching Master Naruto being naughty and mischievous.Hahaha, I didn’t realize it when I was a child, but when I grew up and joined ANBU, I suddenly realized that all of your colleagues might know your dark history since childhood.

However, the ANBU still asked, "Why don't you just go to the Hokage Tower and get out from here."

"Buy meat to feed the cats."

"Here's your umbrella."

"With this little rain, I'll be right back." Naruto waved his hand and got out of the tunnel. Turning to the right was a brightly lit supermarket, "Hey"

"What's wrong"

Naruto didn't say anything. Before he passed out, he really felt that he should wear a mask like Kakashi, and the mask had to be soaked in the universal antidote.It's unbelievable that he would be turned over twice by a piece of white handkerchief. Moreover, there were people around him, including several Anbu. The one who wanted to give him an umbrella was Yamato-sensei. He knew the guards were all useless and couldn't be relied on. Dad, you don't want it. Worry, when your son comes back this time, you really have to train your son strictly. After the same pit, the first time he broke his left leg, the second time he broke his right leg, if he falls again for the third time, there is really only the middle one. The leg can be broken

If it's broken, just cut it in two.

On the night of April 62, 4, in the drizzle, Konoha fell into chaos again.
