Namikaze Minato was very shocked. Many things were like this. Even if he had thought of this possibility, his heart would still fluctuate when it actually happened. He had thought that the third generation might be that kind of hypocritical person. But from what he could see, the third generation he saw was still that very splendid and warm person.
In fact, he didn't particularly believe that the Third Generation was such a person in his heart. Even when he was getting closer to the position of Hokage, he felt that the Third Generation had various different looks. However, in the face of no completely solid evidence, In his heart, he still didn't want to believe this kind of thing.
Even if he is deceiving himself, he still hopes that the third generation will still be the third generation that he respects in his heart. This does not only represent the third generation personally, but also represents the name of Hokage.
Minato is like the ordinary ninjas who grew up in the village. They have regarded Naruto as their idol and goal since they were young. They hope that one day they can become the Hokage of the village and use their lives to light the way forward in the future.
To a certain extent, the third generation is a role model for many people in the village. This is a symbol of spiritual significance. They can accept any problem when anyone has a problem, but if there is a problem with the third generation, it represents the belief in the will of fire. of collapse.
Namikaze Minato is unwilling to accept such a thing!
This was like putting a stain on what he had been looking forward to since he was a child, and the beauty that he originally longed for had deteriorated.
This kind of thing gave him an indescribable feeling of blockage in his heart. He was not in the good mood after getting the secret at all. His whole face became complicated. He really didn't want this kind of thing to happen. In the third generation, the person who doesn't want to plot against him is really the third generation.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Namikaze Minato couldn't help but ask again. He had to emphasize again that this did not mean that he did not believe in Loquat Juzo, but that he wanted to confirm again. This meant that he had longed for the Hokage in his heart. An explanation of the position.
As he spoke, Namikaze Minato's blue eyes stared closely at Loquat Juuzang's face. He wanted to detect whether the other party was lying through the subtle expressions on Loquat Juuzang's face. He didn't want to because His own misjudgment gave the other party an opportunity to take advantage of it, thereby exerting a series of internal effects on their Konoha Village.
Regarding the matter of the third generation, he dealt with it cautiously, and absolutely no problems could arise. After all, this involved the Hokage, and the third generation was still the Hokage, representing the Hokage of Konoha Village. If there were problems with the third generation, it would be equivalent to the Hokage of Konoha. There is a problem in Yecun.
"Huh..."
Uzumaki Kushina sighed slowly. He put away his Nine-Tails Chakra mode. Because he no longer continued to fight, there was no need for him to maintain such a state to increase his consumption. After all, there was no one People know better than her what they will face next. There are a large number of Konoha ninjas coming here, and she must keep herself in very good condition.
Not only did she not tell the Konoha Village ninjas about such a thing, she also didn't mention it to Namikaze Minato. She didn't dare to say it easily if there was no final conclusion. After all, if she made a mistake, , involving major events in Konoha Village.
And, not only that, she understood that Namikaze Minato had extremely deep feelings for the Leaf Village, which was completely different from someone like her who later joined the Leaf Village. Although she also loved the Leaf Village very much, after all, he He is not a native of Konoha Village.
Of course, when things reached this stage, Uzumaki Kushina had already realized that those people were coming for them, because she had already felt it when the two parties crossed paths.
Everything is within her range of perception.
It's just that she didn't tell Namikaze Minato, because this was too cruel for Namikaze Minato, who would face the tarnishing and shattering of his love for Konoha Village.
"I am telling the truth."
Loquat Juuzang said coldly. In fact, even he felt a little impatient in his heart, because when he kept repeating these words, he was actually stabbing himself in the heart with a knife.
As a ninja, it is a basic principle that you cannot betray your employer, and he violated this basic principle.
These are the things that Loquat Juuzang is least willing to mention now.
But there was no other way. He had already reached an agreement with Namikaze Minato, and he had to do these things for Kirigakure Village.
"I don't have to lie to you."
"There's no point in being here if I don't want to tell the truth."
"Everything I do is for Kirigakure Village."
"You will definitely become Hokage in the future."
"If I deceive you about this kind of thing now, wouldn't that make Kirigakure Village the enemy of your Konoha Village?"
"Our Kirigakure Village can no longer bear any more enemies!"
Loquat Juuzang explained one sentence after another. Now he seemed to have broken his teeth and swallowed it in his stomach. Only he knew the pain in his heart. After all, since he had already taken the step of explaining, he had to Speak clearly, otherwise half-finished work would be worse than not done at all.
Now he must leave Namikaze Minato without any doubts in his mind.
Otherwise, when Namikaze Minato recalls this incident and thinks that they might have made it up, the follow-up will be very detrimental to their Kirigakure Village.
Now Loquat Juuzang only has Kirigakure in his heart!
He is a ninja of Kirigakure Village, so he will not let problems arise in Kirigakure Village. Even if there is no way to solve them in the end, he will not let problems appear on him.
He is the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of Kirigakure Village. The meaning of its existence is to protect Kirigakure Village. Even if he is suffering in his heart, this is what he should do!
"I have a question."
However, at this moment, Uzumaki Kushina, who was standing aside, suddenly spoke. She had not spoken for a long time. Since Minato appeared, she had given the initiative here to Minato as the person standing behind her.
Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
Almost in an instant, Uzumaki Kushina attracted the attention of both Namikaze Minato and Loquat Juzo.
"Since you just said that Kirigakure Village can no longer withstand any more enemies, why are you still coming to raid Minato? Isn't this making you an enemy of Konoha Village?" Uzumaki Kushina asked in a deep voice.
The reason why she asked this question was mainly because she thought Minato would care, and she also wanted to help Minato determine this matter.
Whether it's true or false.
Finally there is a definite outcome.
That would be a relief for Minato.
You can also know how to deal with it and face the next scene.
"Actually, we didn't even think about it..."
Loquat Juzo recalled the scene at that time, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. If Rentaro Satsuma hadn't said something too tempting, and they didn't know the specific strength of Namikaze Minato, this battle would have been too hasty and hasty. It's over before it even begins.
"I was still fighting against the Hidden Cloud Village on the front line at that time, and I had no intention of participating in the affairs of your Konoha Village. However, we received a cooperation signal from Danzo Shimura. He asked us for cooperation. As long as we are in your If we successfully assassinate you before returning to Konoha Village, we will get help from Konoha Village, and Konoha Village will assist us in jointly targeting Cloud Hidden Village, so we have this idea in mind."
Loquat Juzo directly told what happened at that time, his eyes flashed with memories. If he had known that Namikaze Minato could use time and space ninjutsu at that time, then he would never have participated in such a thing.
All of a sudden.
He secretly blamed Rentaro Satsuma for not getting the information too clearly and went to make a decision for them.
After all, in his opinion, the encouragement of Rentaro Satsuma played a decisive role in allowing the Seven Ninja Swordsmen to set out and come here. This is also the main reason why they are in this very embarrassing situation now.
"Shimura Danzo..."
After hearing the third generation, Namikaze Minato no longer spoke as much as before, and his whole person became much silent, because the sunny life he yearned for in his heart was tainted by this sudden darkness.
"This is not what Hokage should be like, and this is not what ANBU should be like. I have been training hard for several months and have been fighting for the Third Ninja War. They actually don't want me to go back alive. How ironic!"
The corners of Namikaze Minato's mouth raised slightly, revealing a sad smile. There was a huge psychological change in his heart, and his whole person was no longer in a good condition.
Of course, he is not a member of the Uchiha clan, and he will not feel world-weary because of such changes. It is just a little difficult to accept for a moment.
In fact, the third generation has not affected his enthusiasm for Hokage in any way. He is still the person who is willing to give everything for Konoha Village.
He still wants to be Hokage, and he still wants to be the strongest Hokage. His heart has not changed, and his goal has not changed. After learning that the third generation has such a dark history, he is even more convinced that he must do it. A truly upright Hokage.
When he wanted to become Hokage, he would have some little thoughts in his heart. Those little thoughts could make him go more smoothly on the road to becoming Hokage, but after all, he had no intention of harming others. He had no intention of harming others. He wanted to hurt his competitors in the past, or the current Third Hokage.
However, the fact that the Third Generation planned with Danzo to prevent him from returning to the Leaf Village had created a sharp thorn in his heart that would not dissipate for a long time.
"I see."
Namikaze Minato nodded, even though he didn't want to admit it in his heart, but when Loquat Juzo said this, he had to face the truth of the matter.
"You go back."
"I have heard everything you said clearly."
"I understand what happened."
"certainly… "
"I can't possibly listen to your side of the story."
"I will investigate this matter carefully."
"If what you said is correct, then I will not do anything against Kirigakure Village, and everything today will be treated as if it never happened."
"But if I know that you are deliberately trying to sow discord within our Konoha Village, then of course I will not let you go. You understand my determination!"
Namikaze Minato said one sentence after another, saying that he was very determined in his heart, and now he was in a very bad mood. He understood why he became like this, and he also knew more clearly how correct what Loquat Juzo said, But he just didn't want to admit it, and he didn't want to believe it. He would rather hold on for a while longer. Before the third generation completely broke his face, he felt in his heart that the third generation was still the person he respected extremely much.
"no!"
After hearing what Namikaze Minato said, Loquat Juzo immediately shook his head. This might not be the answer he wanted.
"You have to believe me before I can leave!"
"I'm not a greedy person!"
"Even if you kill me now, this is my answer!"
"But I can't allow you to doubt my answer anymore!"
"I can't let you leave with the risk of doubts about Kirigakure Village!"
"This is disrespectful to our Kirigakure Village!"
Loquat Juuzang's face became extremely gloomy. Now he didn't care about anything at all. Since he had already said this, he had to make his words completely clear.
You can't betray your inner ninja belief and tell your employer. If you tell the contents of the mission, but the other party still doesn't believe it, it will cause trouble for Kirigakure Village. This is absolutely unfeasible. things.
"We must speak clearly today, otherwise I won't leave. I will go back to Konoha Village with you to confront Danzo!"
Loquat Juzo was worried. Since he had already betrayed Danzo, he was not afraid of confronting him face to face. As long as it was for Kirigakure Village, even if he couldn't go back today, it wouldn't matter.
above the branches.
When Qingyu heard what Loquat Juuzang said, the smile on his face became even brighter.
Very good, very well done!
The more determined Loquat Juzo is now, the more he can convince Minato Namikaze to believe such a thing. Of course, he is not an actor, but has actually experienced such a thing, so he is very confident to say it, because He wasn't lying.
And even if he really confronts Danzo, he is not afraid at all, because Danzo is him now. He has been playing the role of Danzo for a while. If it really comes to that, he will Very beneficial to him.
In fact…
Qingyu felt that there was no need to do that, because he felt the presence of batches of people, and the root ninjas he ordered at the base had already arrived.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh…
Suddenly, there were sounds of breaking wind. It was the root ninjas wearing masks. They appeared not far behind Namikaze Minato. Everyone's eyes were staring at the already-made man through the eye holes of the mask. An exhausted Namikaze Minato.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz…
For a moment, murderous intent surged through everyone's body. They stared at Namikaze Minato as if they were looking at prey. Everyone on the scene was a hunter.
"Um?!"
Namikaze Minato was also aware of the existence of these root ninjas. Looking at these people, he couldn't tell the existence of any one at a glance, because they all wore masks and wore almost the same clothes, even their movements and emanations The smells coming out are very similar.
Root Ninja!
This is the root ninja!
Namikaze Minato still has the existence of ninjas at the root, and through the breath of these ninjas, he can feel that their target is him, not Loquat Juzo in front of him.
"What are you doing here?"
Namikaze Minato asked in a deep voice. He actually already had the answer in his heart, but he still chose to ask the question. He needed to get a real answer.
But.
The root ninjas present did not give him this answer.
Instead, he picked up a handful of kunai that shone with cold light, pointed the sharp blade at him, and instantly threw the kunai densely over him.
These root ninjas gave Minato Namikaze the answer through their actions!
