Starting the fourth generation Hokage

Uchiha Mikoto is wearing a purple dress that is slim and slim. Although it is a home dress, her elegant temperament and exquisite appearance are still eye-catching among all the parents.

As expected of a woman from the famous Uchiha clan, even though she is also a housewife, she has an extraordinary temperament.

"Hokage-sama, the speech you just gave was really exciting.

I remember that at our entrance ceremony, three generations of adults also inspired us with such shocking words. "

"The way Itachi looked at you just now was full of yearning and reverence."

Uchiha Mikoto stroked Uchiha Itachi's little head and said with a smile.

It is worth mentioning that Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Mikoto were students at the same time in the ninja school, but they were in different classes.

So at the opening ceremony of the two of them, the Third Hokage took the stage to give a speech just like Minato Namikaze did today.

Uchiha Itachi was probably a little embarrassed by what Uchiha Mikoto said, so he couldn't help lowering his eyes, showing a rare shy expression.

"Yes, time flies by, time flies by"

Namikaze Minato couldn't help but sigh.

All of this probably happened twenty years ago. In the blink of an eye, although many students of the same period died early due to missions or wars, the remaining ones are now basically fathers and people. Mother.

Minato Namikaze was almost 25 years old at this time, and Mikoto Uchiha was almost the same.

The slight difference is that Uchiha Mikoto got married earlier. After all, his eldest son Uchiha Itachi is now almost 6 years old.

Perhaps recalling their school days, Uchiha Mikoto and Namikaze Minato couldn't help but chat a few more interesting things from the past.

After the small talk, the topic inevitably returned to Kushina and Naruto.

"Lord Hokage, you are busy with official duties, can you cope with taking care of Naruto alone?" Uchiha Mikoto asked with concern.

"...Well, this is okay."

Namikaze Minato smiled helplessly, and then told him that he had hired a nanny to take care of Naruto all day long. Uchiha Mikoto felt much relieved after hearing this.

After hesitating for a while, an idea suddenly came to her mind, and she didn't know whether she should say it or not.

Soon, I briefly fell into memories.

Just last night, after the regular clan meeting of the Uchiha clan ended, Uchiha Fugaku looked worried when he returned home. She couldn't help asking and found out that it was because Uchiha Fugaku wanted to seriously rectify the situation. The police force has encountered some obstacles regarding its work style.

Because of the problems with Konoha's special system, joining the guard force is already a member of the Uchiha clan and can become the only place in the village system.

Although the circle of the Guard restricted Uchiha, it also caused many people to gradually build up resentments. At the same time, there was also a hidden disadvantage that this circle of restrictions on Uchiha actually made the entire Uchiha clan more exclusive.

After all, no matter how strong you are as an Uchiha member, no matter how talented a ninja you are, you can still only serve in the police force.

To sum up the above reasons, Uchiha Fugaku's idea of ​​​​purging the atmosphere of the police force was naturally unable to be implemented smoothly.

The estrangement between the Uchiha clan and the villagers of Konoha did not arise in one day, and improving this relationship cannot be achieved unilaterally. Uchiha Fugaku has obviously realized this.

After hearing her husband's confession and troubles, Uchiha Mikoto also fell into thinking.

When Uzumaki Kushina was still alive, she had intentionally or unintentionally tried to use their close friendship to build a bridge to bring the relationship between the top management of the Hokage and the Uchiha clan closer.

But unfortunately, now that Kushina is dead, this relationship is broken.

But after mentioning Naruto today, she accidentally thought of another method, but she didn't know if it was a bit abrupt to propose it at this time.

"...So be it, Itachi, your journey as a ninja has just begun. I am very optimistic about you. I hope that in the future, with the will of fire, you will be able to illuminate the entire Konoha and Uchiha clan."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Itachi's little body tensed up and he bowed his head respectfully in response.

Although he is less than six years old, his firm tone and standard etiquette gestures make him look like an adult.

Seeing that Minato Namikaze was about to leave, Uchiha Mikoto finally stopped hesitating and said after some thought: "...There is one more thing, Hokage-sama."

"If you think it's convenient, you can send little Naruto... to my house for foster care for a short time."

"This is the only thing I can do to help Kushina..."

After Uchiha Mikoto finished speaking, she looked at Namikaze Minato and carefully observed the expression on his face.

It was said that he was helping Kushina, but in fact it was just a pretext.

After all, if he bluntly said that he wanted to help the Hokage take care of the children, wouldn't it make people doubt his bad motives?

Because Kushina is no longer here, if Naruto can be used as a bridge, it will be a good way to close the relationship between Uchiha and Konoha's top management.

Of course, this is all based on the fact that after the Nine-Tails Rebellion, at the village meeting, Namikaze Minato clearly intended to ease the relationship between Uchiha and the village, so he could make such a suggestion.

Otherwise, if someone else comes here, their motives will only be suspected...

"... Well, to be honest, I feel relieved to leave Naruto in your home." Namikaze Minato smiled warmly, then sighed again, with a helpless look between his eyebrows, "But let me think about it again."

"Anyway, thank you for your kindness."

Seeing that Namikaze Minato neither accepted nor refused, Uchiha Mikoto was a little disappointed, but she also understood that this was the most reasonable response.

Because Namikaze Minato was the Hokage, even if he intended to ease the relationship between the Uchiha, he also needed to consider other factors in this matter.

But what Uchiha Mikoto didn't know was that after hearing her suggestion, Namikaze Minato was actually willing in his heart.

Namikaze Minato, who knew that changing the Uchiha would come step by step, never thought that there would be a way to indicate the wishes of the top leaders to the Uchiha.

However, as a modern person who traveled through time, he understood through his experience and understanding of the current situation of Konoha Village these days that politics is not that simple. The factors he was concerned about were not on the side of the top leaders, but within the Uchiha.

At present, the clan leader Uchiha Fugaku's family wants to actively improve the relationship in the village, which is beyond doubt.

But the fear is that there are other unstable factors within the security team.

Fostering Naruto in Fugaku's house is worry-free, and the purpose of showing friendship can also be achieved, but if there are those who have treasonous intentions in the security team, they will find an opportunity to hold Naruto hostage and launch a coup. This extremely terrible situation must be taken into consideration.

Therefore, at least before finding out the internal situation of the security team, the matter of fostering Naruto should be carefully considered.
