Chapter 153: Sunagakure Village: Not a Drop Left!
"Okay, okay, Naruto over there is only 12 years old, it's too early to think about this!"
"What's too early? At 12 years old, you were already..."
"Hm?"
"Anyway, this is a big event in Naruto's life! As a father, how can you not care?"
Minato smiled and shook his head: "Of course I care."
"But no matter who Naruto likes or who he chooses in the future… I will respect his wishes."
"Of course, it would be better if the other party could be more gentle…"
"Ah? What do you mean? Do you think I'm not gentle enough?!"
Kushina was furious, rolling up her sleeves, her red hair billowing.
"No, no!"
"Ssst..."
"Don't wake Naruto up!"
Minato pointed at Naruto in the bedroom, skillfully calming Kushina's anger.
Kushina calmed down and decided to change the topic.
"How is Naruto's life in the village? Is he still living in our house? Does he eat well every day?"
"Um… time is limited, I haven't had a chance to ask. And because I contacted Naruto with my identity concealed, it's difficult to ask directly…"
"Why do you have to hide your identity? You're also his father!"
Minato gave his answer:
"My identity and the two previous Hokage-sama are not suitable for exposure. Once revealed, the entire ninja world might join forces to attack Konoha Village in the future!"
"After all, we don't belong to the future. Moreover, if the enemy knows that the former Yellow Flash of Konoha is still alive. If they can't face me, they will definitely try their best to target my son! Capture him, use him, threaten him…"
"And I can't be by Future Naruto's side all the time. Therefore, announcing his identity too early will only increase his danger!"
Seeing his helpless son, how could Minato not want to acknowledge him?
It's all about perseverance to hold back, to avoid making Naruto's situation more dangerous.
Kushina was surprised and slowly understood the risks involved. She was also too worried about Naruto's future. Worry leads to chaos, so she ignored these issues.
"Okay. Naruto is indeed safer if he's not exposed. B-but I really want to see Naruto's future!"
Minato spread his hands helplessly, there's nothing he could do about this.
No matter how powerful the Hokage is, he cannot travel through space and time!
"This… I'll ask again next time."
"But, Sir said, I can go and see Naruto's future after you unify the ninja world!"
"Ughhhh…"
"How about you work harder and quickly wipe out a few more villages?"
Kushina asked with bright eyes.
She doesn't have any psychological burden, but she hopes that Konoha can unify the ninja world as soon as possible.
This way, the future generation of children will no longer have to face cruel wars.
"I-I'll try my best…"
It was very difficult for Minato to extinguish Kushina's enthusiasm, so he only reluctantly agreed first.
Then does he really want to unify the ninja world?
This is still a bit difficult! Can he do something that the First and Second Hokage failed to do?
However, it's not impossible for one or two large villages to be destroyed.
The First and Second Hokage have destroyed Iwagakure Village, so can he do the same?
Vision determines the pattern.
Minato has seen the destruction of large countries and villages, naturally having a much higher level of structure than before.
Things he previously didn't dare to think about are now possible!
"Wah~~"
Suddenly, a baby's cry came from the bedroom, he was clearly hungry again and needed to be fed.
Kushina rushed to comfort him.
Minato finally breathed a sigh of relief. This poor wave of Naruto, who lacked information and didn't know enough about the future, couldn't withstand Kushina's intense questioning!
NO!
Next time he goes to the future, he must give more power to the next Third Hokage!
Who told him to be so picky that he couldn't bear to arrange more guards for Naruto!
Does he really not consider his son a human being?
And at that moment, another figure also noticed Minato's return, and quietly opened the door and stuck his head out, looking at Minato.
With that pitiful look, it was Jiraiya.
"Minato! You…"
Jiraiya was overjoyed and asked hurriedly.
Minato suddenly slapped his head.
He was too focused on saving Naruto that he didn't have time to ask for information about Jiraiya.
But it's not a big deal, there will be opportunities next time.
His future teacher who could teach Naruto the Summoning Technique should still be in the village. He hopes he doesn't rush to travel again.
❀❀❀
The perspective shifts to Parallel World 3.
In this 'Konoha Collapse Incident', because all the Sunagakure Ninjas were killed or captured by Konoha, and all the Otogakure Ninjas also defected to Konoha, many details of the "Konoha Collapse Plan" led by Orochimaru were also deliberately blocked and hidden.
So the whole event is rendered as:
Sunagakure Village took advantage of the Chunin Exams to boldly break the alliance and attack Konoha. In the end, he was defeated by Konoha, his conspiracy was revealed, and his success failed!
Although the chaos continues privately, the ninja world was almost peaceful for a few years.
When such a major event suddenly occurs, it is naturally like thunder, exploding the entire restless ninja world.
For a while, almost the entire ninja world turned its attention to Konoha and Sunagakure Village.
Analyzing, measuring, evaluating…
Once they feel there is an opportunity and need, other major countries will never show mercy and will immediately invade and tear apart the weak 'sheep'.
Therefore, even though Sunagakure Village is not stupid, even though they know that this battle is very suspicious, as if it were a conspiracy!
However, they can only admit it and start working tirelessly to select temporary agents, and discuss compensation issues.
It's almost what Orochimaru expected.
Sunagakure Village, which has lost both the Fourth Kazekage and the Jinchuuriki at the same time, has no confidence or determination to turn the situation around. If there is a war, it may not be a war between Konoha and Sunagakure Village.
This is a tragedy when the other four major countries join forces to form the Land of Wind!
Other countries that are still waiting and watching will never waste such a good opportunity.
Although the Land of Wind is not a rich country, it is still one of the major countries, and there is still a lot of money.
Sunagakure Village also knows this, so they have to accept a very high war compensation price of one billion ryo and humbly ask for help from the Land of Wind, hoping for financial support.
Moreover, this time Konoha changed its previous gentle attitude and even quickly sent troops to the border post, showing a tough attitude determined to fight to the death.
This has frightened Sunagakure Village and other major villages to a certain extent, making people unaware of Konoha's details and intentions.
This has caused Sunagakure Village to quickly surrender and have no choice but to accept the compensation agreement.
As for the other large amount, it is the ransom for the remaining Sunagakure ninjas and the Jinchuuriki. Sunagakure Village really can't redeem it anymore, there isn't even a drop left!
The basic compensation of one billion ryo almost destroyed their entire village, and they had to seek help from the Land of Wind.
What about another billion?! ! !
Is the desert full of gold?
There is no choice but to postpone it for a short period of time.
Get ready to wait for the temporary agents of the Land of Wind to take over, and then slowly discuss the ransom issue.
Frankly, Sunagakure Village has no cards to play now.
From beginning to end, it was manipulated by Orochimaru.
Unless they really dare to risk the destruction of the village, they can only accept Konoha's compensation request and honestly sell themselves to atone for their sins.
The news, so vivid and explosive, quickly reached the hands of Amegakure Village and Nagato under White Zetsu.
After seeing the information, Nagato immediately controlled Pain.
A round of Akatsuki organization meeting was held.
