My Name is Minato Namikaze

Then he didn't even wait to ask questions.

Naruto continued to speak.

"In the previous chaos, Hinata was injured. Although it is not a serious injury, I am still a little worried. During the recent period of time, I did not plan to leave the village. I also confirmed with Kakashi-sensei before. Is it possible to suspend the mission of the seventh class, and also that my practice has just entered a critical period recently, and another reason is that now I don’t really want to participate in things like Hokage’s succession. , Lord Jiraiya, after all, my identity is still a bit special, you should be more aware of this."

Very candid tone.

And Naruto didn't hide his affection for Hinata at all.

This is not an excuse for shirkiness.

It can be said.

Naruto has plenty of reasons.

Not to mention the first point.

Naruto didn't lie, but told the truth. In the previous Konoha collapse plan, Naruto originally thought that since Hinata was following his father, there would be no major problems. There were no injuries in the original book. It shouldn't be here, but Naruto ignored a very important point - that is Gaara, the additional factor of one-tailed force, to be precise, it should be said that Naruto had considered this before, and did everything well I was ready to protect Hinata in person, but later I saw that Hinata had sun feet, and the protection of the elite guards of the Hinata clan. In addition, I still had some planned goals to achieve, so I ignored this point.

later in the battle.

The huge destructive power brought about by the power of one tail.

Seriously affected the distribution of combat power in Konoha Village.

The Tonin and Sand Ninja who attacked.

It is in the case of accidental occurrences like that.

Hinata was injured.

Certainly not a serious injury.

But when Naruto found out, he was still very nervous for a while.

during this time.

Naruto also visited Hinata two or three times.

Hizu did not welcome the arrival of Naruto, nor did he show any blatant disgust.

The particularity of Naruto's identity.

Others don't know.

As the patriarch of the largest ninja clan in Konoha Village (after Uchiha was destroyed.)

Sunzu can still know some secret information.

For his daughter and Naruto contact.

Sunfoot is based on the principle of non-intervention.

How will it develop, how will it develop.

Based on this, it is understandable that Naruto does not want to leave the village for the time being, but if it is just for this reason, it seems a bit far-fetched, and the words spoken later are more of a supplementary explanation.

Of course, the average person may not be able to hear it.

Naruto's most "sufficient" reason is based on the last sentence.

previous words.

It's like laying the groundwork.

When Naruto said that last sentence.

Jiraiya's eyes also flickered slightly.

"Do you think so? Naruto?"

Jiraiya looked at Naruto, folded his hands on the table in front of him, and asked with a slightly solemn expression.

"Lord Jiraiya, although I'm only 12 years old, my childhood experience tells me that strength is the only indicator of survival in this world. Before I don't have enough strength, talking about everything else is in vain. It's understandable that ordinary people in China reject me, fear me, and resent me. I don't care about them, but for those above, I have to care. Some things are basically my own guesses. , but it is precisely because of speculation that I have uncertainty. I don’t want to participate in too many things that have nothing to do with my current self. I just want to do what I want to do, become stronger, and protect the existence I want to protect. That's all."

Facing Jiraiya's line of sight.

Naruto didn't have any escape.

Instead, he said so in a firmer tone.

‘Don’t want to get involved in high-level affairs. ’

This is what Naruto wants to express in these words.

And as Jiraiya who knows the destiny over the age of 100%, he can hear the deep meaning of it.

Politics at the top.

This has happened in every country and every ninja village.

Even when Konoha Village was first built.

Wasn't Senju Tobirama, who was Hokage's assistant at the time, behind the second Hokage, always vigilant and guarded against the Uchiha clan?

Fighting in the dark.

This is the ugly side of high-level politics.

Naruto thinks that he is not qualified and has no strength to participate in such a thing.

He also considers himself to be special.

Want to have a peaceful time.

Such a meaning is revealed.

In addition to making Jiraiya feel emotional, he can't help but feel some guilt towards Naruto.

Jiraiya is just bold and direct!

Not a political idiot.

It has been said before.

It's just because it's too clear to see.

I don't want to accept the position of 'Hokage. ’

And seeing Naruto, who is only 12 years old at this moment, is seeing some of the sinister things in it.

Even Jirai couldn't help but sighed inwardly.

In his heart, the figure of 'Shimura Danzo' could not help but emerge.

Wanting to control Naruto, he even proposed to let Naruto go to the root and train him personally.

Such a thing.

Jiraiya had learned about it from the third Hokage before.

Looking back now.

Naruto wants to live his life with caution.

Before you have the strength to protect yourself.

This might be the right choice.

"Well, I understand, since that's the case, I won't force it."

Jiraiya looked at Naruto, was silent for a while, then nodded slowly and said softly.

"Thank you for your understanding, Jiraiya-sama."

Naruto bowed slightly, and replied with a slightly respectful tone.

"You are really good, Naruto, just go at your own pace. If there is anything you need help, speak up as soon as possible, and I will definitely help you."

Zilai also stood up and looked at Naruto in front of him, the look in his eyes softened a little, and the words he spoke softly.

"Well, thank you, Lord Jiraiya! I understand!"

Naruto also raised his head slightly and replied with a very light expression of gratitude.

"So!"

Immediately after.

It's just taking steps.

He left Naruto's house straight away.

It's been a few days since the third Hokage.

Konoha Village must determine the fifth Hokage as soon as possible.

There is no extra time to waste.

At the moment, he also chose to leave Konoha directly.

He moved towards the location where Tsunade appeared most in the information he had collected before.

And also after Jiraiya left.

Naruto stood at the door of his apartment, facing the morning light, Naruto's eyes narrowed slightly, and the expression on his face was slightly cold.

'The plan, it's time to execute it! ’

Those words that echoed faintly in the depths of my heart.

From the pale golden halo in the depths of Naruto's pupils, a hint of scarlet color appeared faintly!
