Chapter 135 Meeting
Just as Kurama and Matatabi were exchanging information, at the top of Kagerock Cliff, Naruto stared blankly at Minato.
He felt that the person in front of him looked very familiar, and he felt a sense of familiarity with him, as if he had seen him somewhere before.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Minato Namikaze."
Minato stared at Naruto: "What's your name?"
"Naruto Uzumaki, my name is Naruto Uzumaki."
Naruto quickly replied, "You look just like me."
After all, they are father and son—
Minato chuckled, his gaze falling on the paint bucket in Naruto's hand: "Are you playing a prank?"
"Um, want to come together?"
Naruto nodded emphatically and grinned at Minato.
"If you play pranks, everyone will hate you." Minato said gently, as if he were coaxing a child.
"They already hate me."
Naruto pursed his lips, and for some reason, he was very honest with Minato: "I just—want everyone to notice me."
"Why bother making your presence known?"
Minato shook his head slightly: "When flowers bloom, butterflies will naturally flock to them. Your existence is an objective fact that no one can change, so why do you need to prove anything to others?"
Naruto pursed his lips, frowned, and pondered for a long time before finally understanding Minato's meaning.
Suddenly he slammed his fist in his hand: "Ah! You're right! But how can I, like you said, um—bloom?"
"Become stronger, become more reliable."
Minato glanced at Naruto and asked, "You should be in the Ninja Academy by now, right?"
"Ah—haha~"
Naruto scratched his head awkwardly, only then realizing that he had skipped class today.
Minato noticed Naruto's embarrassment: "Skipping class?"
"Aren't you the same?"
Naruto feigned composure: "You must be a student at the school too, right?"
"I am not."
Minato wasn't wearing his headband today, since he had a scratch on it.
"However, I can teach you some ninjutsu that might solve your problem. Would you like to learn?" Minato asked.
"study!"
Naruto nodded repeatedly. Although he didn't know what was going on, Minato seemed very reliable to him, which made him trust him unconsciously.
"Then come with me."
Minato readily agreed and led Naruto toward the training grounds.
Naruto dropped the paint and quickly followed Minato.
When the two arrived on the street, passersby frowned instinctively and made way for Naruto.
However, when they saw Minato next to Naruto, their expressions changed. Some of the older villagers stood there, stunned.
"Hey—am I seeing things? That's—"
"The Fourth Hokage? He looks like it!"
Because Minato's appearance has been enlarged proportionally since childhood, people can recognize him at a glance, since his face is carved on the Shadow Rock.
Minato didn't bother to hide his appearance and simply led Naruto towards the training ground in a very open manner.
Soon, in the Hokage's office.
"Lord Hokage, something terrible has happened!"
An ANBU member rushed over: "An unidentified person has approached Naruto Uzumaki in the village. That person—looks a lot like the Fourth Hokage!"
'
"???"
Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was processing documents, looked up, his eyes widening slightly: "The Fourth Hokage?"
"Uh, yes, but he looks very young, about the same age as Naruto Uzumaki, but he looks exactly like the Fourth Hokage, even his clothing style is the same—"
Before the Anbu could finish speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi took out a crystal ball and used his telescope technique to capture Naruto's chakra.
The gaze fell on Minato, who was standing next to Naruto. The next second, as if sensing something, Minato in the crystal ball raised his head and looked at Naruto across the distance.
Hiruzen Sarutobi suddenly got goosebumps all over his body!
What's going on?
The dead are coming back to life?
Or is it reincarnation?
If we calculate the timeline, and if there really is reincarnation, then considering this child's age, the timing does indeed match!
Seeing the two heading towards the third training ground, Hiruzen Sarutobi abandoned his work, casually put his straw hat over his head, and jumped out of the window.
On the streets of Konoha, Yamanaka Inoichi, Nara Shikaku, and Akimichi Choza walked side by side.
The three of them happened to be free today and were thinking about where to have a drink.
Suddenly, Nara Shikaku stopped in his tracks, his eyes widening in disbelief as he stared at Minato and Naruto approaching from afar.
"The Yondaime?!"
"Um?"
The two people beside him followed the light and froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.
Minato naturally noticed the three of them as well, and nodded slightly to them, but did not stop walking.
"I said, Watergate—"
Although Naruto was slow to notice, he did notice that something was off about the people on the street: "Everyone seems to be afraid of you."
"Is it because I have a strong aura?"
Shuimen said gently, without offering much explanation.
Soon, the two arrived at the third training ground, but as soon as they arrived, Hiruzen Sarutobi rushed over.
Minato could clearly sense that there were many more hidden forces lurking in the shadows nearby.
"Ah—it's my third-generation grandfather!"
Upon seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi, Naruto's face immediately lit up with a happy smile.
Hiruzen Sarutobi gave an awkward laugh, but when he noticed Minato's calm gaze, his heart sank.
"Little Naruto—"
Hiruzen Sarutobi felt his voice was a little hoarse: "Grandpa was looking for this—Little brother has something to do, why don't you go play by yourself for a while, okay?"
Naruto glanced at Minato: "Hmm—okay, don't take too long, Minato promised to teach me ninjutsu."
Watergate!
Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyelids twitched, and he quickly nodded.
Only after Naruto had run far away did he look at Minato, his expression complex: "Child, you are—"
"I am Minato Namikaze, but not the Minato of this world."
Minato said calmly, "However, given my personality, I would probably ask you to take good care of my child, the Third Hokage, before I die. But—Naruto doesn't seem to be doing well."
Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart skipped a beat.
Not the Watergate of this world—
Parallel worlds?
Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief; at least it wasn't Minato from this world.
"This is a long story—"
Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed, "Back when the Nine-Tails attacked, Minato of this world died to save the village. Considering that Minato was a hero of the Third Shinobi World War and had many enemies, I had no choice but to conceal Naruto's identity."
"I see--"
Minato nodded knowingly: "The identity of the Hero's Son needs to be concealed, but the identity of the Jinchuriki can be exposed—if you hadn't told me, I would have thought that the Jinchuriki posed a greater threat to the enemy than the Hero's Son."
"Then I really have to thank the third generation of myself for giving me a reason to live well, so as not to follow in the footsteps of another me."
After he finished speaking, Hiruzen Sarutobi fell silent.
Minato's words were like a resounding slap across his face.
He even felt that the way the spies around him were looking at him was different now.
