Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit

"Why are you wasting your words?!"

Yuya and Minato Namikaze were on the roofs of tall buildings, crossing over them. In the past, ninjas ran on roofs, but now they run on roofs...

Of course, the roofs were not very high in the past, so there were no requirements for upper, middle and lower ninjas. But now it is not possible. It is normal for a building to be dozens of meters high. It is impossible for middle and lower ninjas who do not have flying related ninjutsu to fall from this height and still ensure their safety.

Therefore, except for the upper ninjas, no ninja in Konoha Village has the qualifications to run on the roofs.

Naturally, Minato Namikaze and Yuya must have it.

The two ran in front, and several figures followed closely behind.

These people are the Shadow Guards.

Listening to Yuya's complaints, Minato Namikaze said with a smirk: "This, this should indeed be said properly, and Kushina had such a hard time giving birth, I think it's okay for Naruto to take her last name...

Although, I don't know why so many people feel weird."

Yuya glanced at Minato Namikaze, and then casually said: "Because in general, only when a woman is in charge of the family, such as marrying into the family, will the child take the mother's last name."

Minato Namikaze was stunned, and then immediately reacted and became a little angry: "I'm not marrying into the family! To be honest, Kushina doesn't even associate with the people of the Uzumaki clan!"

Yuya laughed while running: "But Kushina is the head of the family, right?"

Minato Namikaze: "..."

Well, he really couldn't refute this point.

The two ran on the rooftop while chatting with each other. In a short while, Yuya and Minato Namikaze arrived at the Hokage's office.

At this moment, not only the part-time worker Nara Shika was in the office, but also Sarutobi Hiruzen and Utatane Koharu.

"You're here?" Yuya felt a buzz in his head the moment he saw Utatane Koharu, and then his expression changed.

He knew that Utatane Koharu was the person he arranged to go to the Daimyo's Mansion in the Land of Fire.

The purpose was naturally to serve as a bridge between Konoha Village and the Daimyo.

And now, Utatane Koharu came to Konoha, which means that this matter is likely to be very big.

Utatane Koharu took a deep breath and nodded.

Utatane Koharu was satisfied with Yuya.

Although Yuya and her relationship was not very good, or in other words, Yuya had no special relationship with her at all.

But for Utatane Koharu, Yuya was the designated successor of Senju Tobirama after all.

And Senju Tobirama, that was her teacher.

Therefore, Utatane Koharu was more satisfied with Yuya for his achievements in strengthening Konoha over the years.

As for Yuya asking her to work in the Daimyo's Mansion.

To be honest, she didn't care.

Just like Yuya arranged Mitomon En to be the emperor of the Uzumaki clan, and let Sarutobi Hiruzen become the so-called Minister of Culture who had nothing to do with the core power of Konoha. All these things showed that Yuya did not trust them, the disciples of Senju Tobirama.

They knew it well and accepted it calmly.

After all...

If it were them, they would do the same.

It is better to concentrate power in one's own hands.

And the three of them will undoubtedly share the power in Yuya's hands.

"Well, this matter is quite big. If it was just the death of a border soldier, it would not have such a big impact."

Utatane Koharu had no intention of reminiscing with Yuya.

Of course, she had no past with Yuya.

Yuya frowned after hearing what Utatane Koharu said: "What happened?!"

Before, Namikaze Minato just said that there was an incident on the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Iron.

In fact, Yuya didn't care about this at all.

When was there no conflict between the Land of Fire and other countries? !

No conflict would be news!

The current situation is that if a fight really breaks out on the border, it can only be a small-scale battle, and it is impossible to become a war of more than a hundred people.

The five major ninja villages are all aware of this.

After all, no matter what, the five major ninja villages have signed a cooperation basis for the next few years in Konoha Village.

Wouldn't it be stupid to fight each other at this time? !

And...

There is no benefit!

How can there be eternal hatred between countries and villages?

Konoha and Kumogakure fought to the death, so shouldn't they continue to do business now? !

But...

What does Utatane Koharu mean...

"An important person died?!" Yuya frowned deeply.

The conflict was not big, but Utatane Koharu came to Konoha Village on purpose. The reason can only be that the person who died in the conflict was not ordinary.

Utatane Koharu nodded: "The one who died was the youngest son of the Fire Country Daimyo."

After saying that, Utatane Koharu seemed to be afraid that Yuya didn't understand the seriousness of this matter, so she added: "It was the Daimyo's favorite son."

Yuya's face suddenly became ugly.

It doesn't matter to Yuya whether there is a Daimyo in the Daimyo's mansion, but the problem is that Konoha Village cannot do without the support of the Fire Country Daimyo at this stage.

At most, the population of Konoha Village is only about 8 million, and it is impossible to increase the number of troops with such a small population.

Let's put it this way, if one million people want to, raising 10,000 soldiers is the limit.

If the standard is changed to ninjas, then this number must drop drastically.

Because ninjas and ordinary soldiers have completely different levels of logistical consumption.

As I said a long time ago, after a war, apart from kunai, shuriken and other ninja tools that can be recovered, wars between ninjas are more about using detonating tags as means of attack.

Detonating tags are expensive. With this calculation, Konoha Village has a population of 8 million, and normal support can only support about 40,000 ninjas.

If Konoha Village is driven to the direction of war with all its strength, this number may be tripled or quadrupled.

But even 200,000 ninja troops cannot withstand the border pressure from all directions of the Land of Fire.

So in the final analysis, it is still because of insufficient population.

If Yuya had 50 million people now, he would have already stopped caring about the Daimyo's face.

If Yuya had 100 million people, it would directly mean that the Land of Fire should be part of Konoha Village.

But this number is far from enough...

Yuya sighed, suppressed his annoyance, looked at Utatane Koharu and asked, "Who is the person behind the scenes?"

Yuya asked this question without expecting Utatane Koharu to answer.

As expected, Utatane Koharu told Yuya, "I didn't find out. The attackers used a variety of ninjutsu, and they were all basic five-element ninjutsu. Those killed by the daimyo's guards had no obvious characteristics."

Yuya frowned when he heard it, "Is that so?"

Utatane Koharu continued to add, "Even so, we still found a clue.

The attackers have a close relationship with Konoha's ninja army."
