Chapter 540
[“That’s because other Jinchūriki would die immediately after losing their tailed beasts, so it’s impossible for them to complete this operation. But isn’t Uzumaki Kushina alive now?”]
[“If this could be done, wouldn’t the Fourth Hokage know about it? Since he didn’t do it, this method doesn’t work.”]
[“The Fourth Hokage seems to know everything. Could it be that he doesn’t know about this kind of thing? After all, if he hasn’t studied it specifically, even the Jinchūriki himself can’t know. Maybe he can ask the tailed beasts.”]
Inside the Death God’s stomach, Minato’s expression was a little strange. He asked the Nine-Tails about the speculation in the barrage, and then got an answer that he didn’t expect.
“If Kushina had successfully sealed me at that time, I could have survived.”
Minato was stunned.
Noticing his state, Kyuubi sneered and said, "Don't think too much. Although this method can indeed bring Kushina back to life, can you guarantee that the seal can be completed! Look at the state of you two couples on the sky curtain at that time. I tell you clearly that the possibility of success is very small, and as long as you fail, it will not only be you two who will die, but also the child of prophecy that everyone has high hopes for will die!"
"That being said..." Minato responded with a wry smile: "But at that time, my first reaction was to reject Kushina's proposal. Although the hope was slim, it really seemed like I was deliberately pushing her to death..."
"Your words are meaningless. Why do you blame yourself for something you don't know! As someone who successfully sealed me, don't show such a cowardly look!" Kyuubi scolded loudly, and Minato finally calmed down after a while.
【Hearing this, Minato lowered his head with a face full of shame: "Kushina... You made me the fourth Hokage, you made me your husband, and you made me the father of this child... But I..."】
【Facing the self-blaming husband, Kushina smiled and comforted: "Minato... Don't show that expression, I am very happy... You love me... And... Today is the child's birthday..."】
【"Think about it... If I can survive... Our family of three... will definitely be very happy... If... I still have to say anything regretful... It is... I really want to see what Naruto looks like when he grows up..."】
["It can be said that the relationship that has been cultivated since childhood is worthy of being a model couple."]
["In this world where life and death are intertwined, such a relationship is too beautiful, so beautiful that it feels a little unreal."]
["Wait until the prophecy When the child grows up, and he changes the world, everyone can enjoy this kind of feeling wantonly, and no longer have to worry about losing this kind of feeling one day! "]
["Wuwuwu... Being loved and loving others, you are indeed very happy, Uzumaki Kushina..."]
[Minato couldn't stop crying because of his wife's words. After a moment of silence, Minato wiped away his tears and said seriously: "Kushina, you don't have to die with the Nine-Tails, just use the remaining chakra to meet Naruto again in the future..."]
["I will seal all your remaining chakra in Naruto's body and combine it in the Eight Diagrams Seal. I will deal with the Nine-Tails... For me, who is not a Jinchūriki, the only seal I can use is... Shiki Fuujin."]
[As a member of the Uzumaki clan, Kushina naturally understands the price that Shiki Fuujin needs to pay, but Minato ignored her rejection. In order to maintain the balance of the power of the tailed beasts in each village, the Nine-Tails can only be dealt with by sealing instead of killing. 】
["Between the village and his family, Minato Namikaze chose the village in the end."]
["Hey, being a Hokage isn't that easy..."]
["Because they were worried about losing the Nine-Tails, which would cause other countries to have some thoughts about Konoha, they chose to seal it at the risk of their lives and not destroy it... In the end, it was just a possibility. Just for this, Naruto became an orphan. It's hard to say whether this choice was right or wrong."]
["In fact, I think the Fourth Hokage's deterrent power to other countries should be Not much weaker than the Nine-Tails, especially the Iwagakure..."]
["That's true. Compared to dealing with the tailed beasts, the Fourth Hokage is better at dealing with people."]
["With my ability, even if I use the Shiki Fuujin, I can only seal half of the Nine-Tails' chakra, so the other half of the Nine-Tails' chakra..."]
[As he spoke, Minato remembered what Jiraiya had said to him about the child of prophecy, and immediately made up his mind and said firmly: "Just seal it in Naruto's body, use the Eight Diagrams Seal!"][Kushina found it even harder to accept this, and before she could speak, Minato continued to explain: "I know what you want to say, but... the world change that Jiraiya-sensei talked about, and the disaster that follows the change, I have confirmed these two things today."]
["The masked man who attacked you... that guy will definitely bring disaster, and the one who stops him is this child! This child named by Jiraiya-sensei will be the Jinchūriki and open up the future... I don't know why, I firmly believe this..."]
["Jiraiya, this guy, really once thought that the Fourth Hokage was also the child of prophecy, but it can be seen that the Fourth Hokage is the child of prophecy. Unfortunately, I guessed wrong for a lifetime."]
["Heh, after all, he was related to the word "child of prophecy" before he was born, and everyone was pushing Naruto in this direction intentionally or unintentionally."]
["The inexplicable trust of the Fourth Hokage in Naruto, in addition to the father-son relationship, was also influenced by Jiraiya, really..."]
["Jiraiya, the initiator of everything, really feels like fate."]
'Minato...'
Jiraiya exhaled deeply, looking at Naruto who was completely immersed in the content of the sky, and once again strengthened his determination.
No matter what, he must cultivate Naruto into a talent.
Because Naruto not only carries his dream, but also the trust of many people in Jiraiya.
Therefore, no matter which point, Jiraiya must support Naruto to keep moving forward, after all, he has been fighting as the guide of the child of prophecy until now.
[Kushina wanted to say something to dissuade him, but Minato directly cast a seal and used the Demonic Sealing Art. At this time, the Third Hokage rushed over and was blocked by the barrier. He happened to see the seal he cast and immediately understood Minato's plan. 】
