"What?!"
Naruto and his clone looked at Minato in surprise.
Using Impure World Reincarnation on Minato is something that Naruto never thought about, and Minato also told Naruto before, don't learn this kind of vicious Forbidden Technique. But why did he change his mind now?
As for why Minato knows that Naruto knew about the Impure World Reincarnation, it was naturally because of Danzo who was still working 24 hours a day, and Minato also helped Danzo.
When Danzo saw Minato in a soul form, he became even more excited, blindly saying that it was all Naruto's conspiracy, and then Danzo added another object of scolding, so that even a good person like Minato felt a little bit offensive!
And Naruto didn't hide it from Minato because Danzo was reincarnated from Impure World Reincarnation, so it was completely unnecessary to hide him.
On the contrary, when Minato saw that Danzo was cursing, but his body was forcibly controlled by Naruto, this made him very happy thinking that this is all retribution.
"Do you know what you are talking about? Although Impure World Reincarnation will not cause harm to your soul, it is a Forbidden Technique after all. If someone sees it, they will wonder if you are being controlled by someone."
"Konoha's Fourth Hokage is being controlled by others? How much impact it will have on your image, you should be very clear."
Naruto said seriously. Although as long as he gets the Rinne Tensei Technique in the end, whether it is the soul form or the reincarnated form, Minato can be resurrected immediately.
"I've thought it through, Naruto. I don't know why I don't have to go back to the Pure Land, but I also want to do my part. Let's view it as... my way of making amends to you."
When Minato heard that Naruto was worried because he was afraid that his reputation would be affected, he was moved and became more determined to help Naruto.
Although up till now, Naruto still hasn't called himself father. But Naruto was willing to think about him and worry about him. That was enough.
Moreover, the identity of the Fourth Hokage and a hero is not only because of Konoha but also because of the choice he made for his son. Without his son, what if he is a Hokage? What if he is a hero? They are not important.
Especially, what he is doing now is to help his son become Hokage. There is no need to consider something else
This is the result of Minato's thinking these days.
"But... If Kushina knew, what would she think? I don't have any way to turn a reincarnated body into a soul form again."
"It's okay, I'll explain it to her properly."
Minato smiled gently.
He will just tell Kushina that he is helping Naruto. He knows that she will understand.
"If you have thought about it, then I won't persuade you."
Naruto nodded, now he just needed to find a sacrifice first.
The ninjas at the Root have been brainwashed by illusion. Even if one went missing, others will not care... Wait, it seems that there are many spies in the village now. Kumogakure's emissary should be good, this way Minato will also feel better.
"Wait a minute, I'll come back in a minute."
In front of Minato, Naruto activated Kamui and disappeared.
"That...is that a Sharingan?"
The corner of Minato's mouth twitched, and he asked Naruto's clone.
If he was not wrong, Naruto should be his son. Neither he nor Kushina has Uchiha's blood, so how did Naruto awaken Sharingan?!
He has never heard of a Kekkei Genkai which can be awakened on its own…
"What is Sharingan? I also have Rinnegan. Look~"
The clone activated Rinnega and Eternal Mangekyō while talking. His right eye turned white, and the left eye turned red, which made Minato dumbfounded.
What has my son been doing secretly in the past few years? He probably poked out other people's eyes, right?
Or, does my son have a talent for scientific research?
…
Naruto appeared in a dark corner of Konoha, used "Listen to Everything" to perceive the position of the Kumogakure's messenger and quietly moved there.
"What did Kazekage say? Does he want to start a war?"
"He didn't say it clearly. He just said that it depends on Konoha's performance. If Konoha still can't find his son within the time limit, then war is imminent."
"Continue to look for information. Also look for an opportunity to see if you can abduct a child from the Hyuga family again, preferably a girl. Be careful. It must not be a member of the branch house."
"But, after what happened in the past, they will be more cautious. This will not be easy."
"Don't worry, if Kazekage can't agree with Konoha this time, it will be our chance. We have to facilitate this opportunity, so that, no matter what happens, we can benefit from it!"
"Okay, let's disband now. You should continue to inquire about the news!"
"Yes!"
After the discussion in the room, the Kumogakure envoys dispersed and left. Although they knew that their whereabouts would be watched by Konoha's ninjas, it didn't matter. As they could do nothing about it.
You have already provoked Sunagakure! Do you also want to provoke Kumogakure?
You think you are Konoha with the First Hokage as leader?
...
As Naruto stealthily moved between the shadows, his gaze fixated on an averagely skilled ninja from Kumogakure. Swiftly, he entered the shadows, launching a sudden attack that swiftly incapacitated his target, pulling him into the depths of the dark space. Simultaneously, Naruto summoned a Shadow Clone to assume the ninja's appearance using the transformation technique, continuing the patrol.
Maybe breaking into the interior of the Kumogakure envoy group may yield unexpected gains~
When this ninja reappeared under Konoha's surveillance, no one knew that this person had been replaced.
...
Root base.
"Have you thought about it?"
Naruto asked Minato one last time.
"Yes." Minato nodded affirmatively.
"Okay then, let's enter my Dark Space."
After Naruto and Minato entered the space, Naruto threw the ninja from Kumogakure to the ground.
"Is he from... Kumogakure?"
"That's right, Kumogakure sent envoys to Konoha to inquire about the news. They wanted to take advantage of the situation and planned to kidnap the children of the Hyuga clan. We are enemies anyway, so you shouldn't have any psychological burden."
Naruto nodded to explain.
"No, I don't."
Minato smiled even more happily. Naruto is good at taking care of and understanding others.
Naruto asked Minato to stand behind Kumogakure. Then made a seal with both hands, and slammed it on the ground. A black spell spread out from Naruto's hands, and quickly climbed up to the ninja's body.
As the pain increased, Kumogakure's ninja regained consciousness, only to be horrified as he witnessed his body gradually transforming into mud. Minato's expression also darkened slightly.
Was this the Forbidden Technique?
After a while, the dirt fell off, and Minato opened his eyes.
"It is successful. You are now reincarnated."
Minato looked at his hands and sensed his body. His strength seemed to be the same as before, but his Chakra felt abundant.
"People who are reincarnated through the Impure World Reincarnation technique possess the ability to heal from any injuries sustained and have access to unlimited Chakra, except for any sealing techniques placed upon them. Therefore, there is no need to worry about Chakra consumption. It can be said that your strength has significantly improved compared to before, and you no longer have any limitations or shortcomings."
"The only problem is that you lose your human senses."
