I just returned to Konoha and found that all my clan members were gone.

"excuse me."

While Ichiraku was still blabbering on and on about Minato, Kakashi entered the store.

Ichiraku knew Kakashi and knew that this man was quite nice to Naruto and was his teacher, so he kept his mouth shut at this time.

Kakashi came up to Minato and whispered.

"Teacher, I just came back from Kumogakure. There is still a lot of unrest over there. Many people are against Killer Bee being the Fifth Raikage. It will probably take a while before there is a result."

Minato was a little frustrated, he had no idea how to become a perfect Jinchūriki. He was able to use the power of the Nine-Tails because they had stayed in the belly of the God of Death for too long. With his constant conversations with the Nine-Tails, he somehow became a perfect Jinchūriki.

He had no idea what the specific method was, and he didn't have enough time to study it bit by bit, so he could only ask Yunyin for help.

Kakashi continued after ordering a portion of the signature ramen.

"However, after Killer Bee himself heard that Naruto is your son, he agreed to tell Naruto how to become a perfect Jinchūriki, but he has to wait until he becomes the Godaime Raikage, and he can't spare the time now."

Kakashi finally brought good news, which made Minato breathe a sigh of relief. The training of fairy arts was almost coming to an end, and now it was a race against time.

Minato asked again after Naruto's matter was resolved.

"What's the situation on the battlefield in the Land of Earth? I heard that the situation is not very optimistic?"

Taking advantage of Minato's distraction, Kakashi quickly opened his mask with a movement that even Minato couldn't catch, and finished the ramen in one breath.

The whole process took less than a second, and Minato was stunned.

Kakashi looked at his teacher sheepishly, "Personal habit, ahem."

Kakashi cleared his throat, sighed, and quietly took out a leaflet from his ninja tool bag and handed it to Minato.

"This thing hasn't spread to the village yet, but it's all over the Land of Earth. Take a look, Sensei."

Minato looked at Kakashi in confusion and knew it was not appropriate to watch in public, so he just took a quick look under the table.

After he finished reading, his pupils shrank and he asked Kakashi in a deep voice.

"Is what it says true?"

"Not bad at all."

Kakashi felt a little melancholy. This method was impossible to crack. Ye Lan had used this trick on the Uchiha incident before, which ruined the reputation of the Konoha high-level officials. Now it happened again, and even more cruelly.

“Where do they get so much money and provide jobs for ordinary people?”

Minato didn't understand the situation, he just took a quick look and was very curious about how a small village like Yuyin managed to do it.

"It's a long story, but there's one thing you need to know, teacher. Amegakure doesn't have any ninjas of their own. Their forces are called the military, and a lot of their properties were taken from the daimyo and distributed to ordinary people. They are not controlled by the daimyo, and the life described in the leaflets is real."

What worries Kakashi the most is that the propaganda is not exaggerated, they are really doing it. Now almost one-tenth of the Iwagakure troops are deserters.

"Where does the money for the maintenance forces come from? Don't they do any missions?"

Minato was surprised. He hadn't been dead for long, so how come the ninja world had become like this?

"They had their own factories, and after they had divided up the land and the jobs, they would collect very small taxes from them to support the army, so that the army was closely tied to the common people."

Kakashi explained.

"Amazing! The person who came up with this method is simply a genius."

Even the enemy Minato couldn't help but sigh that this was not just the strength of an individual's military power, but it directly made the entire country strong.

"Not only that, another reason why Iwagakure was losing ground was that the gap in weapons was too big. I heard that they even have a special weapons research and development department, with all kinds of new weapons. Even I wouldn't dare to break through that kind of artillery position head-on."

When Kakashi went to Kumogakure, he once glanced at a battlefield in the Land of Earth from afar. The thunderous sound of artillery made his scalp tingle.

"A crazy idea coupled with a group of crazy people, this war may be more brutal than any previous one..."

Originally Minato was still wondering when to deal with Obito's affairs, but now Obito's affairs seem not so important.

Kakashi was silent. He was not a person who liked war. After a long time, he said quietly.

"Teacher, in fact, all of this can be avoided. Yuyin has only become truly powerful in the past few years, and a major incident occurred in Konoha a few years ago."

Without waiting for Minato to ask, Kakashi gave the answer directly.

"The Uchiha clan has left Konoha!"

Minato didn't expect Kakashi to mention this, and he looked again at the much more mature student.

Kakashi's gaze didn't flinch, physically he was a few years older than Minato at this point.

"Uchiha Yelan, is everything because of this person? Kakashi, are you familiar with him?"

Minato took the initiative to look aside and continued to ask.

Kakashi stopped staring at Minato and relaxed a lot.

“I was familiar with him when I was in the village, but when I think about this guy’s actions, it seems like he has never changed.”

Minato was puzzled. Logically speaking, after going through all these things, his mentality would inevitably change.

"This guy is not only very strong, but also very good at talking. He always leaves me speechless."

Kakashi recalled, remembering that this guy still owed him money, and it might be difficult to collect the debt now.

"But the most important point is that this guy can't tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes. This was the case with the Uchiha, and it is still the case now. If we put aside our identities and follow his words, they are more likely to be on the side of justice."

Minato's face was serious. He wanted to blame Kakashi, but then he thought of his own situation, and the words of accusation came to his lips but he couldn't say them.

"Hey, Kakashi-sensei, when did you come back?"

Naruto finished another bowl of ramen, and when he turned around he saw Kakashi sitting next to Minato.

"You've been working hard lately Naruto."

Kakashi smiled again and greeted Naruto, forgetting all the serious topics that had just been discussed.

"Teacher Kakashi, I have been working very hard recently, and I have almost completed the training of Sage Mode!"

Naruto said cheerfully, a smile he could only show in front of close elders.

"That's great. It looks like you'll be of great help later."

Kakashi chatted with Naruto for a few more words, and before leaving, he whispered something to Minato.

"Teacher, it's best not to tell Naruto about what happened on the battlefield."

Minato nodded and threw the flyer into the trash can.

He walked towards Naruto again and asked, "Naruto, can you tell me about Uchiha Yolan? I heard from Kakashi that he spent some time with you guys."

Naruto was stunned and didn't understand why his father would ask about Ye Lan, "You said brother Ye Lan, how can I put it? I don't know what kind of person he is."

"Then let's start from the first time you met."

Minato wanted to know about Uchiha Yalan's situation from Naruto.

"Oh! I remember this very clearly. At that time, we were about to sign up for the Chunin Exam..."
