Minato Namikaze's dream is naturally to become the Hokage. Don't be fooled by what Konoha says; everyone has the hope of becoming the Hokage.
If one wants to become the Hokage, their background is an unavoidable threshold.
Whether it's the First, Second, or the current Third Hokage, aren't they all from esteemed backgrounds?
Even the future Fifth, Sixth, or Seventh Hokage will undoubtedly come from esteemed lineages. This is something that no one can deny.
Although the selection of Hokage has only reached the Third Hokage for now, one can easily see this pattern from the candidates for the Fourth Hokage.
Both Minato Namikaze and Kushina aren't fools; they are well aware of this fact. Of course, as disciples of Jiraiya, they are also from esteemed Hokage lineages.
If they continue to develop, there might be a place for them in the Hokage position.
But if Minato Namikaze joins the Ogami clan, then he will be marked with Asahi's seal.
Even if Minato Namikaze remains loyal to Konoha, the village elders will still not be at ease with handing over the Hokage position to him.
So, if Minato Namikaze were to join the Ogami clan, he would essentially be giving up his greatest advantage and blocking his own path to the future.
In such a scenario, if Minato Namikaze wants to become Hokage, the difficulty would naturally be unimaginable.
"Master, why does Minato-senpai joining the Ogami clan mean giving up his dream?"
Upon hearing Asahi's words, Obito and Kakashi asked with some confusion.
Especially Kakashi, he greatly admired Minato Namikaze, who was not only powerful but also gentle and shared the same dream as himself.
"The world is not just black and white; sometimes it's enough to just listen to some words. You'll understand the specific reasons later."
Asahi gently shook his head, not explaining too much to the two. At their young age, they can't compete for the position of the Fourth Hokage.
Therefore, the issue of identity is not significant to their relationship.
Moreover, if the Fourth Hokage remains Minato Namikaze, then the future might really be as they described it.
Hearing that Asahi didn't intend to answer, Kakashi and Kushina nodded lightly and didn't ask further.
"Hehehe, Lord Asahi, who said that joining the Ogami clan means giving up one's dream?"
Just then, Minato Namikaze, who had been silent and conflicted just now, suddenly smiled and spoke.
As the saying goes, only children make choices, while adults choose everything. Minato Namikaze's words directly caused Asahi's eyebrows to raise slightly.
Indeed, this is not a multiple-choice question. But if one wants to choose everything, then the difficulty is extraordinary.
Asahi wouldn't help Minato Namikaze compete for the position of Hokage, so Minato Namikaze would only have a chance if he changed the mindset of Konoha's elders.
After all, becoming the Hokage isn't something you can achieve just by being powerful.
If the higher-ups and the people don't approve, then you have no hope. Thinking of this, Asahi smiled and said:
"Indeed, you can choose between two paths, but do you know how difficult this path will be? The human mind is the hardest thing to predict and change."
Hearing this, there was no expression of retreat on Minato Namikaze's face; instead, he appeared confident and determined.
Indeed, this path is difficult, but what does that matter?
He believes he can do it, not for anything else but because he is Minato Namikaze.
"Lord Asahi, I understand. But I have confidence in achieving all this because I am not alone in my efforts; I have many people supporting me by my side!"
Saying this, Minato Namikaze looked towards Kushina beside him, then glanced at Kakashi, and others.
Upon hearing Minato Namikaze's words, Kushina's eyes lit up as she looked at him. At this moment, Minato Namikaze truly exuded a special kind of manly aura!
Initially, it was Minato Namikaze's strong self-confidence that had deeply attracted her.
Just now, she was feeling conflicted; although she wanted Minato Namikaze to join the Ogami clan, if Minato Namikaze's dream were to be shattered like this, she didn't know what to say.
But now, there's no need for confusion; Minato Namikaze has already given his answer.
Minato Namikaze's appearance made Kushina firmly believe that he could accomplish what he said.
So, as Minato Namikaze's words fell, Kushina immediately spoke up with confidence:
"Yes, Master, you can rest assured."
"Although Minato and I are rivals, if anyone dares to make things difficult for Minato because of his affiliation with the Ogami clan and prevent him from becoming Hokage, I will make them understand why flowers are so red."
Of course, although Kushina said that she and Minato were rivals, she had long understood that she could never become Hokage herself.
Besides being a ninja who arrived in Konoha during her youth, her personality alone was not suitable for becoming Hokage.
She continued to say this now only to maintain her pride. So, if Minato needed help in the future, she would spare no effort to assist him.
"Yeah, Minato-sensei is not alone, we will support him."
"Although he is also my competitor, but I am still young, so I will reluctantly become the Fifth Hokage, and let the Fourth be given to Minato-sensei."
As Kushina finished speaking, Kakashi and Obito also spoke up, while others nodded agree.
Although they were not sure about the situation, it didn't stop them from making a choice.
Hearing everyone's words, Minato Namikaze's face was filled with a satisfied smile.
In such a situation, even if the road ahead is difficult, he will not be afraid. Seeing everyone's performance, Asahi also smiled lightly.
"Well, since you have made up your mind, then what reason do I have to refuse?"
Hearing Asahi's words, Minato Namikaze's smile became even more pronounced. Without hesitation, Minato Namikaze bowed deeply to Asahi and requested,
"Lord Asahi, Konoha ninja Minato Namikaze requests to join the Ogami clan."
"Yes." Asahi didn't say much, just a simple "yes," and the matter was settled.
"Thank you, Master." Minato Namikaze didn't hesitate either; he immediately changed the way he addressed Asahi.
Since the disciple had been accepted and the clan member had been received, as Minato Namikaze stood up, Asahi directly spoke:
"Enough about that, we've spent quite some time here. Don't you all have missions to attend to? Hurry up and go."
"After this war ends, I will help you hold the initiation ceremony."
