"Before that, can you tell us the reason why your family did this? Since the first generation of lords founded Konoha, there have been three large-scale ninja wars, but you did not intervene before. Why? Now in a relatively peaceful era, you are starting to prepare for the next war? "Although Minato believes in Hazuki, as Hokage, he needs to consider the whole village. He will definitely control things that will endanger the lives and livelihoods of the villagers. As for Otsutsuki, in his opinion, it is still an uncontrollable factor.
"It's like this. It's normal for you not to trust us. After all, we have never appeared before. It's just that this time the situation is serious. Don't you think there are a lot less ups and downs in the entire ninja world? In normal times, small fights are common. The small country is even much more stable. Although even our Otsutsuki clan cannot clearly know the details about the small country, the prophet in our family told us a few days ago that in the past twenty years, the turmoil in the ninja world has It will no longer be something you ninjas can bear. So the elders decided to use the gentlest method to influence and save this world." Yu Yue said without changing her expression. He had long expected that these people would not trust him so much, so he went to the elders to learn the truth, preparing to use this fact as a trump card. "Sure enough, it's still useful," Yuyue thought secretly.
Hearing this, Minato immediately thought of the intelligence in recent months, all of which were calm, and he believed Hazuki in front of him.
"So, according to what you said, this child is the key to saving the world?" Minato became a little anxious. If there is a ninja village that doesn't abide by the rules and overturns the peace agreement without authorization, it will be easy to handle. At most, the ninjas will fight each other and there will be no destruction. And what Hazuki said was that ninjas couldn't resist, so it was obviously not just a matter of starting a war in the ninja village.
"You can say yes, or you can say no. The key point lies in its purpose. Let me say it again, Yu Ling is the seed that the elders are optimistic about. Good seeds need good nutrients to grow. I am only responsible for sending him here, and the rest It's your own business. How to save the world is up to you." Yu Yue realized that there was really not enough time, so he hurriedly finished the key points he thought, and then activated the Heaven's Control and prepared to leave Konoha.
"Thank you, Yu..."
"By the way, tell this child that he is just an orphan who was picked up by your Konoha during the war. See you later!" Yuzuki's voice rang out from the black hole, interrupting Minato's words again. thank. He seems to be really impatient.
"Hey, it's so urgent. Why don't you stay for a meal? Not many people appreciate my cooking skills!" Kushina murmured a little sadly on the side, her little mouth pouting slightly. She originally thought she could catch a guinea pig to taste her food. It seems that this plan has been ruined again.
"I appreciate it, I appreciate it..." Minato pulled the somewhat disappointed Kushina aside, put on a helpless but still smiling face, and coaxed her.
"Humph." Kushina looked at this good old man's face but couldn't get angry, so she could only pretend to be angry and turn away.
"Minato." The third generation also woke up, and the old voice seemed to have lost a little vitality. After this blow, the Sarutobi Hiruzen of that year would never come back. "What are you going to do with this child?"
"This is the child that the Otsutsuki family is looking forward to. There must be something unique about it. Besides, the Otsutsuki family is very powerful. I'm afraid that Konoha as a whole is no match for them, so I still follow their requirements. , let this child think that he is an orphan, but take good care of him. Third generation, are you willing to take care of this child?" Minato has calmed down, and while sorting out the information in his mind, he is also thinking about the child named Yu Ling. processing method.
"Let's do this. We'll treat him with the highest configuration for a war orphan and place him next to my house. If the Third Generation is willing, I can give you the task of taking care of him." Minato thought for a moment, then came up with a way and started again. Ask the third generation. After all, others in the village would be resistant to someone from outside the village, and it was perfect for a former Hokage to do this potentially thankless job.
"Okay, I just found something for me to do. Fighting is no longer suitable for me." Sandai smiled mockingly to himself. Of course he knew Minato's intentions. But he was still a Hokage after all, but now he had no fighting spirit to take care of the children. Hiruzen couldn't help but feel sorry for himself. It’s always a state of mind to be dissatisfied, but the body can’t keep up with this state of mind.
"By the way, this kid's name is Yu Ling." Minato looked at the third generation who was secretly feeling sad, and added heartily.
"Yu Ling... I will definitely train you to become a strong man." After saying that, he secretly shook his head again.
"Hey, his name is Yu Ling, please give me some advice! I will be good friends with Naruto from now on!" The tall Kushina appeared again at an inappropriate time and smiled at Yu Ling.
...
In the blink of an eye, three full years have passed since the day when Kyuubi caused trouble, and the little Naruto who could only cry loudly at that time also grew into a cute little boy.
"Yu Ling, let's go play ninja games!"
"No."
"What about Sasuke?"
"No."
The three little boys were lying on the grass by the lake in Uchiha's territory. In a wide area, only the sound of The sound of a man yelling. Yes, that's Naruto.
There is a white-haired boy on the left who looks more mature. He was wearing a white robe at a young age and playing with a real kunai in his hand. You know, this boy is only three years old.
The black-haired boy on the right is from the Uchiha clan. He was juggling real shurikens.
These two people are Yu Ling and Sasuke. Yu Ling and Naruto have grown up together since childhood, and their parents have a very good relationship. But Sasuke was different. He was Naruto's friend that he picked up from a tree.
...
"Hey, what's your name, that man on the tree?" When Naruto and Yu Ling were walking on the street, Naruto suddenly found a child sitting on the tree next to him, sleeping there.
"Uchiha Sasuke." The boy on the tree said his name without opening his eyes.
"Hey Sasuke, do you want to play with us?" Naruto was obviously familiar with the situation and was about to start playing with the new kid he met.
"Idiot"
"You! Sasuke is an idiot, Sasuke is an idiot!"
...
But Yu Ling and Sasuke have one obvious thing in common, that is, they both ignore Naruto.
"Hey, you're all bored. You've been lying down all day. Why don't you play with me." Naruto saw this and started messing around in front of them again.
"Naruto! Stop making trouble, I've only been lying down for 20 minutes." Yu Ling's lazy voice came from the left side, but Naruto also suddenly became weak. He always obeyed Yu Ling's words. Maybe temperament can really make a big difference in people.
"20 minutes...but I feel like it's almost a day." Naruto felt a little aggrieved. How could he, who was so active by nature, find time to lie down on the grass to rest and recuperate? Besides, with the physique of the Uzumaki clan and the blessing of the nine tails in his body, he still needs so-called rest. He has someone helping him regain his strength throughout the day!
"Big idiot." At this time, the dull voice coming from the right side once again aroused Naruto's restless personality. He immediately jumped up and circled around Sasuke! He muttered the words:
"Sasuke is an idiot, Sasuke is an idiot, Sasuke is an idiot, Sasuke is an idiot..."
For some reason, Naruto naturally liked to fight against Sasuke, but he ignored Yu Ling's preaching. So everyone can always see Yu Ling walking alone, but there are two dead children arguing endlessly next to him.
"Sasuke is an idiot, Sasuke is an idiot..."
"Naruto, if you like ninjas so much, why don't we go practice secretly." At this time, even Yu Ling with such a good temper couldn't stand it anymore, so he With such a proposal.
"Okay, okay! But what is practice?" When Naruto heard it, he thought it was a particularly remarkable thing, but racking his brains he couldn't figure out what this "practice" was. Although Naruto was very curious about many things and would always ask about this and that, a case of amnesia made all his efforts in vain.
"Big idiot." Sasuke's timely follow-up hit made Naruto forget what he was thinking about, so he started the legendary mouth escape mode without any worries.
"Sasuke is an idiot, Sasuke is an idiot..."
"Okay, Naruto. Training is to practice the skills needed to become a ninja. Do you understand? Let's try it now!" Yu Ling is still the same, his expression unchanged. Teaching Naruto was also painstaking. He has explained this practice alone no less than ten times. And just as he and Sasuke were walking side by side to the nearby training ground, Naruto was still thinking about it.
"Well, what is a skill? No, no. Well... that should be it." Suddenly, as if he understood, he raised his head and chased after the two of them.
In a few minutes, they arrived at the 31st practice field. And they also saw the three thick wooden stakes standing in the middle of the training ground.
"There are wooden stakes, let's try taijutsu today." Yu Ling suggested. Sasuke glanced at him, nodded silently, and began to walk towards A wooden stake. But as soon as I started, I had to stop.
Naruto was already punching the three logs like crazy.
But the next second there was a scream.
"Ah, smelly wood, it hurts me so much." Naruto hit the wood pile with his bare hands. How could this three-year-old body endure it? There was a big swelling on my hand.
"Naruto, let's practice kicking first. This will cause less harm to us." Yu Ling explained calmly.
"What does harm... mean?"
No one paid any attention to him this time. The other two were afraid that Naruto would suddenly grab the stake again, so they ran to kick.
"Hey, wait for me." After saying that, Naruto also stood up and ran to the pile on the side.
Sasuke and Naruto both imitated Yu Ling, who was standing in the middle, and kicked their legs in a decent manner. Since Yu Ling didn't have any family, he would peek at the training of ninjas, so he also learned some basic skills. But even if it's just fur, it's enough trouble for these three-year-old kids.
The three of them kicked the pile one by one, making small popping sounds.
"You started training at such a young age. If you want to succeed, Naruto's drive will need Yu Ling's wisdom. No, he also needs the pressure from that Uchiha brat. Hahahaha." Minato smiled cheerfully. laugh.
"Yes, it seems that it is a good decision to let them grow up together. Right, Fugaku?" In the Hokage room, the third generation stood next to Minato, looking at the three children in the crystal ball, and then asked sitting opposite The current Uchiha clan leader finally showed a kind smile again.
