Minato's arrival slightly eased the tense situation.
Naruto felt inexplicably relieved upon hearing his voice, staring at that smiling face for a few seconds.
(ovo) Naruto pointed at Minato and shouted, "You, you, you, you're the Fourth Hokage!"
"Oh?" Minato tilted his head slightly. "Is that how you address me?"
"Address? Is there something wrong?" Naruto asked, then suddenly realized, "Wait, aren't you supposed to be dead already?"
Stopping Kushina, who was about to lose control again, Minato said, "It's hard to explain in a few words. How about coming back to Konoha with us first?"
"If it's going back to Konoha, then okay." Whether it was because Minato's affability was too strong, or because he had personally seen the Fourth Hokage he admired the most, Naruto agreed without much hesitation.
Minato smiled gently at Naruto, placing his hand on his shoulder, "Alright, everyone come closer!"
Everyone else knew about the Flying Thunder God Technique, only Naruto was confused.
And the next moment, everyone was in the Hokage Office.
Naruto only felt a blur before his eyes, and the scene changed: "What's going on? Where is this... the Hokage Office?"
Naruto looked around, the furnishings in the office seemed familiar, after all, he often ran to the Hokage Office since he was a child, so he was quite familiar with it.
And Minato basically didn't make any major changes after becoming Hokage, and you could still see the Hokage Rock from the window.
"This is Konoha? But why isn't Granny Tsunade's head there?"
"My Ninjutsu can bring people back from very far away in an instant." Minato explained, then asked with a smile, "In your world, did Tsunade become the Hokage?"
Naruto nodded, and said, "Yes, Granny Tsunade is the Fifth Hokage... You just said 'my world'?"
The others also noticed this keyword, not caring about Naruto's 'nonsense', waiting to hear Minato's explanation.
Minato said, "According to my speculation, you should be from another world very similar to this one, let's call it a parallel world for now. The people and events that have occurred in the two worlds are almost the same.
But at some point in history, a slight divergence occurred, leading to different things happening later.
According to the information you revealed earlier, it should be when I died in the other world, or before.
And the reason why you appeared here is probably because you and our Naruto were simultaneously affected by the power of the Dragon Vein, and then some unknown errors occurred, so the two of you went to each other's worlds."
While everyone was still trying to understand Minato's words, Hinata eagerly asked, "Then, Naruto-kun should be alright too?"
Minato smiled at Hinata and Sasuke, who were also worried about Naruto: "That's right, the situation of the two Narutos should be similar."
Naruto narrowed his eyes, pinched his chin with one hand, and after thinking for a long time, he finally understood the meaning of the parallel world, and asked uncertainly, "You mean, there was originally a Naruto here, and he might have gone to my world in my place now?"
"That's what it means, so everyone initially thought you were a guy impersonating Naruto." After confirming that this child had suffered an undeserved disaster, Kushina's anger basically subsided, after all, this was her own son from another world.
Naruto was still a little distant from this fierce woman, and asked Minato, "Then how can I go back?"
Minato said, "Since the Dragon Vein can send you here through the power of time and space, it can also send you back. I am quite confident in my Ninjutsu in the aspect of time and space, so are you willing to cooperate with my research?"
Naruto said without thinking, "Of course! I also want to go back as soon as possible, Captain Yamato and the others must still be waiting for me."
Minato said, "Then come with me, Kushina and Kakashi also come, the others can disband for now."
"Okay... wait a minute!" Naruto remembered something important, "Sasuke, I have something I want to ask you!"
"What?" Sasuke stopped, and for the sake of Naruto's face, he could barely answer a few questions.
"I want to ask you, why didn't you defect, or how were you persuaded to come back?" The current Naruto was still thinking about how to bring Sasuke back. Since this is a parallel world, why not ask this Sasuke's opinion?
But he was destined to be disappointed. Sasuke retorted a little unhappily, "Why should I defect?"
"Because Itachi killed the entire Uchiha clan except for you. In order to seek revenge, you followed Orochimaru to pursue power, and then..."
"Hey! You guy, don't think that just because you look exactly like Naruto, you can talk nonsense!" Sasuke didn't want to say any more to him, turned his head and left. If he wasn't counting on him to bring the real Naruto back, Sasuke would have drawn his knife long ago.
"Sasuke!" Naruto stretched out his hand in vain towards Sasuke's back.
The others glanced at him with complicated expressions and walked out of the office one after another.
Minato patted Naruto on the shoulder: "It seems you've been through a lot."
Naruto felt a little down: "Why is Sasuke so angry?"
Minato explained: "Because the Uchiha clan is living well, and Sasuke and Itachi have a very good relationship. Of course he's angry when you say such things."
"But I heard that the Uchiha clan wanted to do some bad things, so... didn't that happen in this world?"
Minato nodded and said, "There were indeed such signs, but we resolved it well."
Naruto suddenly understood: "I see, that's right, the Fourth Hokage, you could even do something like that."
Kushina interjected with a smile: "It seems you admire Minato very much."
"Of course, the Fourth Hokage sealed the Nine Tails with his life and saved Konoha, a hero." Naruto adjusted his Forehead Protector, "I must become a Hokage as excellent as the Fourth Hokage!"
"By the way, Fourth Hokage!" Naruto asked expectantly: "Do you know who my parents are? If there is a Naruto in this world, his parents should be the same as my parents, right! What kind of people are they?"
"You don't know who your parents are? Didn't the Third Hokage, or others, tell you?" Minato's expression was a little complicated, wondering if there was something wrong with the other Konoha.
"Third Hokage only told me that my parents sacrificed themselves when the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox attacked Konoha more than ten years ago, but I haven't even seen their photos, I don't even know if they really exist."
Naruto's voice was a little choked up, "I really... really want to see them, I really want to know what kind of people they are!"
"Then I'll tell you." Minato put his hand on Naruto's head, "Your mother is called Kushina Uzumaki, she has beautiful long red hair, and she is an absolute beauty."
Naruto listened carefully to every word Minato said, trying to imagine his mother's appearance through simple words.
"Your father is called Minato Namikaze, and like you, he has blond hair and blue eyes. He has the title of 'Yellow Flash' in the Shinobi World, and he also has a title in Konoha, called—'Fourth Hokage'."
"Yes, yes! Old Dad is so awesome, he's actually..." Naruto widened his eyes, looking at the man in front of him in disbelief. The Fourth Hokage, that's...
Minato held Kushina, who was smiling, with one hand, and put his arm around Naruto's shoulder with the other, and said softly, "That's us!"
"I am... the Fourth Hokage's son?!"
