Naruto: I Can Take People Through the Ninja World in the Future

Minato teleported back to the living room of his house with Hiraishin no Jutsu.

"Sir! You're here!"

Minato was overjoyed and extremely happy to see Lux.

"Yo, Yondaime."

"You're alone? Where are Shodai and Nidaime?"

"They didn't come."

"Oh. Kushina, what's wrong with you? Your body?" Minato quickly came to Kushina's side and asked anxiously.

"I'm fine. Let's get some food. You stayed up all night too."

"Okay, thanks!"

The two looked at each other lovingly, and the smell of sourness filled the air. Luckily, it wasn't enough to eliminate the aroma of bone broth.

Lux ignored them completely. He didn't want to talk about any love story nonsense right now. He just wanted to work! He just wanted to complete the main mission as soon as possible!

❀❀❀

Kushina's skills were indeed good. Her ramen was average, but the bone broth was very rich and flavorful.

Lux ate two servings, his stomach felt warm, and he was very satisfied.

Kushina only ate one serving, and she still looked a little weak.

And Minato devoured three servings with great relish. First, because of the series of battles last night and the busy night, he was very hungry. Second, he was very happy, finally becoming a father, and his wife and children were all safe and sound.

Minato finished his last mouthful of soup and put down his bowl with great satisfaction. Then he looked at Lux, then touched his head and said with a smile: "Making the Sir laugh."

"It's alright, Kushina's work is very good! Thank you for your hospitality."

"Haha, I love to eat all the dishes Kushina cooks."

After eating, both sides also chatted about business.

"Sir, are you here this time?"

"Have a meal and chat for a while."

"Okay, I also have a lot of questions I want to ask the Sir."

Minato was very excited. Although there were still many government affairs waiting for him to deal with in the village, they weren't as important as this. If it was true as the First and Second Hokage said, this man was comparable to Rikudo Sennin. If the other party casually revealed some information, it would be enough for Konoha to gain a lot of benefits.

The thing is, Jiraiya had been wandering for over ten years just for the vague prophecy of the Great Toad Sage. If they could get accurate prediction information, why bother working hard?

Of course, the most important thing was to be grateful, to thank Lux for saving his and Kushina's lives. Based on this kindness, Minato was willing to do his best to repay Lux's favor without harming his family and village.

Not to mention just having a meal and chatting. It wouldn't be a problem to hang out and chat every day!

"Yondaime, seeing you like this, the higher-ups in the village have started to trouble you, haven't they?"

Minato was startled, then relieved.

"Did you really already see it, Sir?"

The sharpest knives often come not from enemies, but from teammates.

"What!"

"Those old men and women, have they started to make things difficult for you again?"

Kushina next to him suddenly became angry. After Minato ascended to the throne, she knew very well how difficult the isolation and restrictions her husband experienced were. Now that the Kyuubi Rebellion had just ended, they were targeting Minato? Too shameless!

Minato said helplessly: "The village suffered a great loss this time, and someone has to be responsible for it."

"Why! I sealed the Kyuubi for the village. It's clearly because of their poor protection that we were attacked."

"In the end, it was you and the previous Hokage who saved the village and resealed the Kyuubi again."

"Why are they still blaming you?"

Kushina shouted excitedly, the more she thought about it. If it wasn't for Naruto, she would definitely want to rush into the Hokage Building and go crazy.

"Kushina, don't get angry, you haven't recovered yet!"

"Minato, what do they want? They don't want to force you to step down as Hokage, do they?"

"The possibility is very small. And I won't resign or abdicate."

"But Danzo and the two advisors are using this as a reason to blame me and seize some of the Hokage's power."

Minato wasn't a political novice, and he easily understood the true intentions of Danzo and the others. It was truly unrealistic to think that Minato, who ascended to the Hokage position with absolute military ability, could be removed from his position by a single incident.

However, they dared to damage Minato's reputation and seize more of the Hokage's power. This audacity not only existed, but it was also very bold!

Kushina continued to rage.

"What? Why are they so shameless? It's clear they didn't have any effect at all during the riot last night. Now they are the first to jump out and target you. Disgusting!"

Minato was a little helpless, "This is really not good, but they have this kind of personality, I can't just fight back against them, can I?"

Danzo and the others were all veterans from the Third Hokage's era and students of the Second Hokage. With Minato's seniority, it was very difficult to fight back against them. If he really did, not only would the Third Hokage be unable to explain it, but the Daimyo would likely also stop financial aid to blame Minato.

"Minato, you can't compromise, you can't admit defeat!"

"You understand?!"

Kushina grabbed Minato's collar and shook him repeatedly to emphasize. If she were Hokage, she would just fight those old guys. Any more nonsense would be considered a loss! After all, she didn't want Minato to become Konoha's sinner and be criticized by the villagers.

At that moment, Lux spoke.

"He doesn't have to compromise. But for you and the children, he will choose to compromise."

Kushina immediately turned around and asked: "Sir, what are you talking about?"

"The tragic Kyuubi Rebellion, with casualties and losses, will inevitably cause resentment."

"If there is a clear enemy, then this resentment can naturally be expressed unanimously. Unfortunately, the enemy this time is too mysterious, and almost no one saw him. Therefore, it's difficult for the villagers who lost loved ones last night to focus their resentment on an unclear enemy. They will only focus on the more specific Kyuubi, and the Jinchuuriki!"

"If Minato doesn't take the initiative to take responsibility for this crime, he will take the initiative to attract this resentment. Then the Konoha villagers will focus their hatred on you. Of course, the Uchiha Clan suspected of controlling the Kyuubi will also indirectly become hostile."

"As a result, in the next few years or more, you and Naruto will live in an environment full of hatred and hostility."

"This is what Minato doesn't want to see, and it's also the real reason why he wants to be blamed."

"Minato, am I right?"

Minato was surprised again, then laughed and said: "Sir, your eyes are sharp, and I really can't hide anything from you!"

Kushina froze in place, then her eyes quickly turned red and tears streamed down her face. She was still angry about the unfair blaming and targeting by the village.

But Minato had already thought about the future, and was even willing to bear all the bad things and mistakes for himself and Naruto. Behind his gentleness and kindness, there was hidden love and responsibility.

"Minato, you can't."

"Kushina, for you and Naruto, I have to."

The two looked at each other, and the air became sour again.
