Chapter 585
[“It hurts my heart. This soft knife is much more fierce than a real knife!”]
[“If Naruto hadn’t known from the beginning that all this was fake, he might have sunk here.”]
“…” Naruto bit his lips and finally stopped the urge to cry. Despite this, he couldn’t take his eyes off the photo on the sky for a long time.
‘It’s so good... I in that world... I have been accompanied by my parents since I was a child... The family has always been together... It’s so good...’
In the belly of the god of death, Minato’s eyes were a little dazed.
If the Nine-Tails Rebellion had never happened, their family should be living a life like the one on the sky now.
Kushina in the Pure Land was even more tearful at this time. Aren’t these pictures on the sky the scenes she imagined before she died!
Accompanying Naruto and watching him grow up, recording every important day of his growth, the family can eat together every day, quarrel every day, and the excitement at home will never stop...
All of this is what Kushina once longed for and desired for the future, and now, the sky is presenting these in front of her in another form. In addition to comforting Kushina's heart, it also makes her feel more distressed and guilty about Naruto.
[The next day, at the gate of Konoha, the group of people who were carrying out the mission gathered here. Kakashi gave a thumbs up and shouted excitedly: "Okay, everyone! Cheer up!"]
[On the contrary, Kai sat on the ground, hanging his head and looking decadent, complaining weakly: "Where is the spirit? There are endless tasks, I am exhausted, my youth has withered..."]
[Sakura was speechless because of the role swap between the two, but Naruto was not interested in it at all. He stood far away with a sour face, and even did not give a good face to Kushina who came over to joke. 】
[Not to mention Kushina who was unhappy about this, Sakura took the initiative to walk to Naruto and couldn't help but persuade him: "I say, no matter what, you also..."]
["It doesn't matter!" Naruto interrupted Sakura's words, turned his head and said coldly: "Anyway, I'm not Menma."]
["Here it comes! It's finally Kakashi's turn!"]
["Eh, how should I put it, it feels mediocre, I want to see a more energetic Kakashi!"]
["Hot-blooded man Kakashi, decadent and negative Might Guy, weird, obviously the contrast between the two personalities is quite big, it should be very funny!"]
["Probably because Shikamaru, Neji, Rock Lee and Saku "Hahaha, that's true. Compared to those people, it doesn't seem difficult to accept that Kakashi has become passionate and Kai has become passive."]
["That's for you outsiders. For those of us who are familiar with these two people, their changes are enough to make fun of them when drinking!"]
["Naruto's rejection is stronger than I thought!"]
["Tsk tsk, look at the tone of his voice when he said "I'm not Menma anyway". The reason he's throwing a tantrum here is not only because of his rejection of the fake, but also because of his envy of Menma!"]
["It's normal. Compared with Menma's life, Naruto's life is so bad that he can't lose his temper! ”]
[The scene changes to the training cave, where two wooden men fall unconscious on the ground. The mysterious man thanks the illusory Afei beside him for the tailed beast, and then, with Afei's reminder, he learns that Konoha has begun to make action plans against the Book of Vermillion Moon.]
[In the dense forest, a circular basin is located here. Minato and his party arrive here. The Book of Vermillion Moon is in the bamboo forest in the center of the basin.]
["The Book of Vermillion Moon is just ahead. I think the teacher should have set up a mechanism. Kakashi, you should use your Sharingan to observe it first." Minato instructed Kakashi beside him.]
["Got it! Although I want to say this..." Kakashi slowly squatted down, with a tired expression, saying: "Sorry, I worked too hard and overused my eyes a little."]
[As soon as these words came out, Akai, who was standing behind the two of them, leaned against the tree trunk and slowly sat down, with a visible old look on his face: "Actually, I also want to take a break. After all, I am old. ”】
[Minato had no choice but to let everyone rest for a while, but unexpectedly Naruto took the initiative and rushed to the center of the basin.]
[“From the current situation, this mysterious man does not seem to belong to any organization and is a lone ranger...”]
[“In other words, he is alone."Is it possible to use the power of Konoha to fight against the entire ninja world... Although it is not a direct confrontation, it can be seen that this guy is very powerful."]
["A Fei said that he knew everything, so why didn't he let this mysterious person take action in advance to retrieve the Book of Vermillion Moon, and had to wait until Konoha took action before reminding the other party."]
["It is still unknown what A Fei's purpose is, so why does he need to help the mysterious person wholeheartedly?"]
["According to common thinking, A Fei and the mysterious person conspired, just to use his power to deal with Naruto. I just don't know what A Fei can gain after defeating Naruto in this world. Can he directly take away the Nine-Tails?"]
["I can see that these people in Konoha are here to make people laugh. It turns out that Kakashi's brain is not that good either!"]
["Too hot-blooded to ignore the consumption of chakra... How can you live so long!"]
["Why does Kai look so old? Is it because of his negative emotions that he ages faster! ”]
Kakashi covered his face to hide the disgust in his eyes.
When he saw that ‘himself’ had become a hot-blooded man, Kakashi already felt uncomfortable and couldn’t bear to look at it, but now it seems that this guy seems to be more unreliable than he imagined!
Why did he use the Sharingan for no reason? What kind of wrong perception did that guy have about his own chakra? Is it because he is very smart that he has become a complete idiot after being turned upside down!
The same person who felt disgusted with the ‘self’ on the sky was Kai, who was always in youth.
“It’s so ugly! I actually showed such an ugly expression! And what nonsense did he say about youth having faded and being old! Damn it! I absolutely cannot accept such a thing!”
A Kai’s eyes were burning with fire, and he was so excited that his nostrils were about to smoke. He shouted: “I’ve decided! Today our training volume will be doubled. I want to prove to myself on the sky that youth will never fade, and his youth will also be left to us to work hard! "
"Yes, Mr. Kai!" Xiao Li responded loudly. Ningci looked at the two of them speechlessly, then looked at the sky and said helplessly: "Whether it is real or imaginary, this character is the same trouble, really..."
"Being a little passive is better than peeping into the women's bathhouse and stealing women's underwear..." Tiantian said with a dark face. It seems that the previous plot has made her angry for a long time. Ningci, who suffered an unexpected disaster, was speechless.
【"Now is not the time to relax! "Naruto's eyes were cold and his mood was like a suppressed volcano. Although this state made Naruto fearless and brave, it also made him lose the ability to observe calmly. As expected, the trap set by Jiraiya was triggered, and the three brothers Gamabunta were summoned to block Naruto.】
【Seeing this, the others had no choice but to follow suit. Minato took the initiative to step forward and stated his identity and purpose. However, the Myoboku Mountain in this world had no intersection with other Konoha ninjas except Jiraiya, so Bunta would only obey Jiraiya's orders to guard this place, and did not let others go. others passed. 】
[Naruto still wanted to try to persuade them, but at this time, Bunta had already impatiently spit out a huge cigarette and hit everyone. At this point, Konoha could only force its way in. Then a large group of small toads of various shapes fell from the sky and pressed everyone down. And because of Jiraiya, the group couldn't use heavy hands on these toads, so that everyone couldn't get away for a while. 】
["Oh, Minato and Menma in this world didn't sign a summoning contract with Myoboku Mountain. How can Jiraiya be a teacher?"]
["Probably because there is no prophecy of the child of prophecy, so it affected Jiraiya's decision. Who knows what he thinks."]
["Well, let's not talk about Naruto and Sakura for now, but the skills of others are indeed weaker than expected. They were suppressed by a group of toads so easily."]
["No, Namikaze Minato was actually trapped by this kind of attack. What a joke! Where is Flying Thunder God! ”]
[“He may not know this trick in this world. Perhaps he lacks the key signature ninjutsu, so the Fourth Hokage in this world is someone else.”]
[“To be honest, I don’t quite understand Jiraiya’s operation. If he could set up such a trap before his death, why didn’t he just give the Vermillion Book to the toads and let them send it to Konoha?”]
[“From the conversation between Bunta and Minato, the relationship between Konoha and Myoboku Mountain in this world doesn’t seem to be very close. Without a comprehensive understanding of the background relationship here, it is impossible to analyze the motivations of the characters’ behavior.”]
[Naruto was the first to break free from the suppression of the toads, but was intercepted by Bunta and other toads again while continuing to advance. Naruto tried to condense the fairy chakra to open the situation, but was not only interrupted directly, Bunta also spit out a mouthful of acid at Naruto in mid-air without mercy. 】
【Just when Naruto was calmly preparing to use means to intercept the attack, Kushina flew over and pushed Naruto away, but she herself had no time to dodge and was burned by the acid. 】
【Seeing this scene, Minato's face changed slightly, a Flying Thunder God broke free from the suppression and hugged Kushina. After instructing Naruto to take good care of Kushina, Minato threw Flying Thunder God Kunai in all directions, and then easily entered the bamboo forest with a few flashes, and then took out the scroll placed here by Jiraiya, and took the opportunity to unlock the toad's summoning technique. 】
["Strange, why did Naruto use Sage Mode? He should be able to use the power of the Nine-Tails at this point?"]
["Maybe... he doesn't want to use too much force? Maybe it's easier to control the power in Sage Mode!"]
["Well, Minato Namikaze can use the Flying Thunder God Technique! What the hell was he doing just now! Acting!"]
["After watching for so long, it seems that Minato Namikaze's personality has not changed much, and his strength has not weakened. Is he the same in this world as in reality?"]
["Could it be because of Naruto and Sakura? Maybe only their parents in this world are Special."]
【The mission is completed, Minato returns to join the others, Sakura treats the injured Kushina, and Minato walks to the side with Naruto, saying in a low voice: "Kushina only suffered minor burns, but you should know what I want to say."]
【"Leave me alone..."]
【"Huh?"]
【"I told you to leave me alone! Stop it! You rushed out on your own initiative and got yourself hurt. I can handle that kind of attack myself..." Naruto yelled at Minato hysterically, and then he was slapped in the face by Minato.】
【"How can we sit back and do nothing? We want to protect you all the time. It's a conditioned reflex for our bodies to move. This is what parents are." Minato said expressionlessly. 】
【Hearing this, Naruto showed an expression of disbelief on his face, turned his head away and kept asking why. Minato didn't understand what Naruto was struggling with, so he pressed Naruto's shoulder and chuckled according to his own understanding and said, "Don't mess around next time. I told Kushina before we set off that I will write you a recommendation letter for jonin after this mission."】
【As soon as these words came out, Naruto's heart skipped a beat, but before he could feel this emotion, Kushina, who had finished the treatment, intervened in the conversation between the father and son and shouted sternly, "Menma! You are such a kid..."】
【Minato was nervous and wanted to defend Naruto. Naruto also thought he would be reprimanded, but he didn't expect Kushina to rush over and hug him directly, saying with a worried tone, "Fortunately, you are not injured..."】
【Naruto stupidly felt Kushina's hug, his pupils trembling violently, and after a moment his eyes were completely softened. He slowly raised his hands and hugged Kushina tightly. 】
["Tsk tsk, Naruto, your temper is a bit untenable. Regardless of whether you can handle the enemy's attack, Kushina wants to protect you out of concern!"]
["Naruto just doesn't want to get involved with them, but his intense reaction shows that Naruto cares about them!"]
["Hehe, Minato's slap is a response to the punch Naruto gave him in the sealed space before."]
