Naruto, the strongest Uchiha from signing in.

Chapter 224: Minato: "I'm proud of you, Naruto!"

A week later, under the joint action of the five major ninja countries, nearly 80,000 ninjas formed a joint team to check the domestic and foreign transit of the five major ninja countries one by one.

In just seven days, thousands of dark organizations and dozens of Akatsuki strongholds were eliminated.

As for Uzumaki Naruto, he was treated as a key protected person and hid his whereabouts in the Beast Paradise generously provided by the Fourth Raikage, an animal island in the ninja world.

In addition to Sasuke, the accompanying protection personnel also include Hatake Kakashi, Might Guy and other Konoha's best players, including Uchiha Sasuke.

Inside Beast Heaven, in the silence of the night, Naruto's inner world.

"I'm sorry, father, I only took the time to listen to you talk now. The ninja world has been very unstable recently. The Fourth Ninja World War is about to begin."

In the inner world, above the azure water gate, Minato, with a gentle smile on his face, lowered his head to look at the half-grown child in front of him.

I feel helpless and a little distressed.

"No matter what era, war is always inevitable. You have grown up a lot compared to what you were back then, Naruto."

Minato nodded in relief, but felt a little uneasy when he glanced at Naruto in front of him.

Why is Naruto's dressing style so similar to that of Uchiha Kagetsu, who also makes him feel helpless?

No matter what, the guy in front of him is undoubtedly the son he has given hope to. No matter the environment in front of him or the Nine-Tailed Fox not far away, it is absolutely impossible to fake it.

Smiling and touching Naruto's hair, Minato's heart was filled with pride, this was his son, and Kushina's child.

"It seems that the Third Hokage has taken good care of you. So I will..."

"No, the Third Grandfather only comes to see me occasionally. I can see my father in person like this thanks to Brother Huayue's help. He also taught me how to get along with Jiu Lama."

For a moment, Minato stood there in a daze, and even his expression became full of surprise.

"Hanazuki? Uchiha Hanazuki? That little guy who liked to act like a spoiled brat and openly offended the Third Hokage has now grown into a qualified ninja. Time is really amazing."

Naruto's eyes flickered, as if he had heard the teacher's dark history, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Ah, Brother Huayue also said that regarding the Nine-Tails attack incident more than ten years ago, the perpetrator was Uchiha Obito. It seems that Brother Huayue discovered him after the battle more than ten years ago."

When Minato heard this, his expression changed and he looked at his son in disbelief.

"Wait, Obito? Obito isn't..."

"It seems that he was rescued by the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization, allowing Uchiha Obito to see Kakashi-sensei with his own eyes and kill a companion named Lin. According to the teacher, Akatsuki wanted to choose Obito as a pawn."

"Then Obito launched the Nine-Tails attack on the village in order to avenge Konoha for causing him to lose something precious."

After briefly explaining the matter, Minato's joy at the reunion faded a bit, and his eyes turned cold.

"Yes, that's right! Akatsuki, in order to seize the nine tailed beasts and destroy the current ninja world, has been planning since long ago..."

With a complicated look in his eyes, Minato seemed to have thought of something and asked quickly.

"Naruto, what happened to Obito now? Do you know where Obito is now? Has he returned to the village?"

"I don't know. Brother Huayue has been quite busy recently and I can't find him at all."

Having resolved the doubts in his heart in one day and seeing Naruto growing up healthily in front of him, Minato was already satisfied and his face was full of smiles.

"Naruto, how have you been spending all these years?"

Naruto opened his mouth, but didn't know how to start for a moment. Kurama, who was not far from the two of them, raised the corner of his mouth and lightly touched the blue water with his sharp claws.

Balls of colorful bubbles slowly rose up, and Jiu Lama smiled brightly and shouted loudly.

"Little devil, since you can't open your mouth, I'll do it!"

Scenes from the past appeared before Minato Namikaze's eyes. Just the first glance made Minato's eyes slightly red and he felt very sad.

"Look, that child, it's that one. Why did the Third Hokage keep this scourge in the village? I really don't understand."

"Hey, that guy, hurry up and bring the salt over here, that guy has been here, hurry up and spread the salt to ward off the evil spirit!"

"Damn you, why are you getting close to here? Get out of here, don't come over here, it's bad luck..."

A young figure, even just walking on the side of the road, will attract criticism and be driven away by the crowd.

These scenes were unbelievable to Minato, but for the young Naruto, they were an experience that repeated itself every day.

Do you have a family? What are your father and mother like? Where are they now? Will they come back?

The whispers of his childhood made Minato, as a father, feel deeply guilty and helpless.

Until that day, the figure in black clothes and robes stretched out his right hand to Naruto in front of him, and made Naruto realize for the first time that someone was willing to acknowledge his existence.

"Don't you hate me?"

"What does it have to do with me what happens to the others? You are Uzumaki Naruto, that's all..."

Minato was lost in thought, but Naruto was looking at the past scenes with nostalgia, his smile was indifferent and peaceful.

"Let the past go with the wind. The most precious memories should be deeply engraved in your heart and never forgotten."

Although he had anticipated the confidentiality regulations and had heard about the Jinchūriki's situation, Minato still didn't expect that Naruto would suffer so much because of it.

The Third Hokage, Kakashi, Jiraiya...

The expected figure to lend a helping hand did not appear. Instead, it was Uchiha Kagetsu, who was only his master and disciple in name, who extended a helping hand and gave Naruto a ray of warmth in his childhood.

"Fourth Hokage, your child has really suffered a lot. All these are thanks to me, hehe..."

Kurama smiled, and Naruto beside Minato shook his head repeatedly with a sincere tone.

"No, being with a tailed beast is not necessarily a misfortune. You are my companion all along, Kurama."

Looking up at the sky, the azure water beneath your feet gradually falls, and the green vines meander and crawl, embellishing the monotonous and boring inner world in front of you into a vibrant and magnificent scenery.

"You, Naruto, have really suffered a lot. I'm sorry that I haven't fulfilled my responsibilities as a father. It's great that you can grow up safely."

Even though he felt a little angry inside and couldn't help but feel a little resentful towards the villagers and his disciples, seeing his child go through so much hardship and still face the world with a smile was enough to make Minato proud of Naruto.

"Do it the way you want to do it, no matter what others think, I'm proud of you, Naruto!"

The chakra that he had maintained with great difficulty dissipated, and Naruto nodded slightly with a complicated expression.

"I will bring true peace to this world, Father!"
