The next day, the family of three went out together, a rare occurrence. Today, Minato was wearing the Konoha ninja uniform, with a Hokage Cloak over it, looking incredibly handsome, especially the moment he put on the Hokage Cloak, it was explosively handsome.
In Naruto's memory, there were two scenes where Minato looked the coolest in the anime. One was when he just put on the Hokage Cloak and said to the camera, "I'll be right back." The other was when he slammed Obito into the ground with a Rasengan and said, "This is the Flying Thunder God Second Stage." No wonder he had fewer scenes but more fans; it's a world that values looks.
The streets of Konoha had already returned to their usual hustle and bustle. The small frictions on the border of the Land of Fire recently had not affected the common people much. Along the way, whether it was pedestrians or vendors, they all greeted the family of three excitedly, with considerable prestige. Minato and Kushina responded with smiles.
It wasn't until Naruto was half asleep that they finally arrived at the Uchiha Clan Compound. Naruto observed that the civilians within the compound, apart from having a ping-pong paddle pattern on their clothes, seemed no different from other villagers. Even the Military Police Force on patrol stopped and greeted Minato's family respectfully, without showing any arrogance. Naruto shook his little head, unable to understand why the anime would develop to the point of planning a coup.
After walking and looking around, they finally arrived at Sasuke's doorstep. Itachi, who was sweeping the floor, quickly greeted them, "Fourth Hokage, Aunt Kushina." As he spoke, he curiously glanced at Naruto and then looked away.
Naruto thought he had reason to suspect that this guy was thinking something like, 'Not as cute as Sasuke'...
"It's Itachi, is Fugaku home?" Minato smiled and touched Itachi's head.
"Yes, please come with me." Itachi put down the broom and led Minato's family into the gate.
By the time they walked into the living room, Naruto was still in a daze. It was too big. They had just passed a large courtyard and walked through a super long corridor. Naruto also caught a glimpse of a separate training ground with targets hanging. As expected of the residence of the head of the largest clan in Konoha, the area it occupied was excessively large. His own home was only a three-story building, which was far inferior to such a wealthy clan.
After some polite greetings in the living room, Kushina took Naruto to the bedroom with Mikoto Uchiha to see Sasuke. Itachi also followed, leaving only Minato and Fugaku to talk alone in the living room.
According to Naruto's observation, Fugaku Uchiha's appearance could only be described as having regular features, with a serious, square face. At first, Naruto wondered how he had given birth to two such handsome sons, then he glanced at Mikoto Uchiha and understood that the two children must have taken after their mother.
The architectural and decoration style of Sasuke's home was basically Japanese style. At this time, Sasuke, who was not even one year old, already had his own room, which seemed to be quite large, with a double bed and various small toys neatly placed on the cabinet next to it. The most impressive thing was that in addition to the Uchiha clan emblem hanging on the wall, there was also a calligraphy work hanging, which read "Masashi Kishimoto"!!!
Little Sasuke was lying on the bed at this time. He opened his big eyes and tried to turn over, perhaps awakened by the sound of the door opening.
"Ah, so cute!" Kushina had already run over to Sasuke in a few steps, put Naruto next to Sasuke, and then reached out to touch Sasuke's head.
Mikoto said with a smile, "Naruto is also very cute, with golden hair and blue eyes, just like the Fourth Hokage."
Yes, although Naruto had used Adamantine Sealing Chains as soon as he was born, and should have perfectly inherited the talent of the Uzumaki Clan from his mother, his hair and eye color still followed his old man, Minato Namikaze, without showing the red hair of the Uzumaki Clan. It could only be said that Minato's genes were terrifying.
"Little Sasuke, this is my Naruto, let's be good friends in the future! Naruto too, you have to get along well with Sasuke!"
Sasuke had already noticed the little blondie next to him. Not knowing if he recognized this half-brother, he babbled and tried to roll over and press on Naruto. While trying to push him away, Naruto thought in his heart, mmp, I've remembered this grudge, you wait for the future Sasuke.
The two adults watched the children "play" by the bed, and exchanged parenting experiences with smiles. Of course, Kushina was mainly asking, and Mikoto was mainly talking. Among them were many black history stories of the Uchiha brothers. For example:
"There is a girl in the clan named Izumi Uchiha, who has always had a good impression of Itachi, but whenever she hugs Sasuke, Sasuke cries. But when Itachi takes Sasuke, Sasuke immediately smiles."
"Eh~ Is Sasuke so attached to his brother? They have a good brotherly relationship."
"Yes, but I'm worried that this child will affect Itachi's chances of getting a girlfriend. Hehehe~"
"Hahaha, so that's how it is~"
The two unscrupulous elders looked at each other, and then looked at Itachi in unison, revealing aunt-like smiles.
Itachi, who was carefully comparing the two children and came to the conclusion that "as expected, his own younger brother is cuter," suddenly found himself inexplicably shot.
Although he was a little embarrassed by the playful gazes of the elders, he still insisted on staying to take care of his younger brother.
The adults talked and laughed, the children played, and by the time Naruto woke up from a nap, he was already on the way home.
Judging from Minato's expression, it seemed that he and Fugaku had a smooth talk?
Naruto thought secretly, maybe with his old man around, the Uchiha wouldn't fall out with Konoha, and Itachi wouldn't have to kill his entire family in a fit of anger?
He just didn't know what his old man and Sasuke's dad talked about. If they could really integrate the Uchiha into Konoha perfectly in the future, would today's conversation be called the "Double Eleven" talks? Then, in order to commemorate this day, the villagers of Konoha would create a celebration with discounts on goods?
So beautiful, so very beautiful.
...
...
Three years passed quickly. The friction between the Land of Lightning and the Land of Fire gradually subsided, ultimately not escalating into war, and even hinted at an intention to form an alliance.
As for Sunagakure Village of the Land of Wind, it was a younger brother, having already formed an alliance, acting extremely cowardly. The reason might be that the One-Tail Jinchuriki was too young and not perfect enough. If one's own big Ivan has problems, one's confidence will be insufficient.
The Jinchuriki of this generation in Sunagakure Village is Gaara, the same age as Naruto. When his emotions are agitated, Shukaku goes berserk. After a series of bizarre actions by his own father, Rasa, Gaara's emotions became increasingly unstable. The thought processes of people in this world have always been peculiar.
The biggest event that occurred during these three years was the disappearance of Orochimaru, one of the Sannin, also known as the Cold-Blooded Orochimaru. His disciple, Anko, was branded with a cursed seal.
After investigation, the Anbu discovered human experimentation equipment in Orochimaru's secret laboratory, with dozens of children immersed in jars filled with nutrient solution, only one survivor. From then on, Orochimaru was designated as a missing-nin, with a danger level of S-rank.
The surviving child was eventually adopted by the Third Hokage. During this time, something unknown happened, Danzo was removed from his position as elder, and Hiruzen Sarutobi officially retired to take care of children at home.
As for Jiraiya, he was seriously injured while intercepting Orochimaru. After recovering from his injuries, he immediately set off to continue his travels. As for whether his purpose was to find the Child of Prophecy, gather material, or search for Orochimaru, no one knew.
In comparison, the fact that the Hyuga Clan leader happily welcomed a daughter on December 27th of Konoha year 48 wouldn't even make the trending topics, let alone the headlines.
The storm gradually subsided, the village returned to peace, and the Fourth Hokage's reputation continued to rise. Ninjas of Kakashi's generation were already seventeen or eighteen years old, almost capable of standing on their own. Whether they were ninjas or civilians, at this time, they firmly believed that under the leadership of the Fourth Hokage, the village would get better and better.
...
...
At this time, in the home of the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.
With a wave of Minato's hand, a banner unfurled and hung on the wall.
With a wave of Kushina's hand, colorful ribbons and confetti fluttered down from above Naruto's head.
Kakashi brought out the birthday cake.
"Happy third birthday, Naruto!" *3
"Hehe, thank you!" Naruto smiled, closed his eyes to make a wish, and then blew out the candles.
Afterward, Kushina put her arm around Naruto's shoulders and asked with a smile, "Tell Mommy, what wish did Naruto make? Maybe it will come true right away!"
Naruto revealed a "naive" smile: "I hope Mommy gives me a big brother!"
"What, you just want a big brother, leave it to me... Eh???"
