The genius of Naruto is a bit ordinary.

Chapter 322 Xiao Xia Li: Lao Deng, watch out!
Namikaze Minato still felt that the other party might be the Second Hokage. If Uchiha Madara survived because of some miraculous thing, then it was entirely possible that the Second Hokage also survived for some reason, but his appearance had changed drastically.

Because he is friendly enough to Konoha, and at the same time has powerful strength, he also knows the Flying Thunder God Technique and even the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique.

If it weren't for the black-clothed masked man who he speculated to be Uchiha Madara, then Namikaze Minato would not have thought of the Second Hokage. But now that there is the possibility of Uchiha Madara, there is entirely the possibility of the Second Hokage!
In addition, Minato Namikaze also thought of another possibility, that is, the other party might be a member of the scattered Uzumaki clan. As for hair color, it has never been a symbol of bloodline. In this case, it is natural that the other party knows the Uzumaki clan's sealing technique.

And who knows if the Second Hokage secretly passed on the Flying Thunder God Technique to the Uzumaki clan...

In addition, the other party wanted to save Kushina so much, perhaps because they were from the same clan, so Minato Namikaze felt that this possibility was still possible.

Xia Li looked at Minato Namikaze at this time, then took the map of Konoha Village from the side, spread it on the table, pointed to a location, and said, "I came here this time because I want you to take care of this orphanage in the future."

Xia Li still decided to help himself in this world. After all, he felt that himself in this world was too miserable. Without help, he would be unable to move forward.

Although Namikaze Minato was a little confused as to why the other party was paying attention to an orphanage, he thought it was not a big deal and it would also help improve the reputation of the Hokage, so he agreed.

Then, Namikaze Minato also told what happened after yesterday, and explained that he did not reveal the existence of Xia Li.

"Well done. You are worthy of being the Fourth Hokage. You have thought it through carefully." Xia Li nodded and said. He did not want to be exposed and cause any trouble.

Namikaze Minato smiled and nodded. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but ask, "My benefactor, may I ask your name?"

"Me?" Xia Li was sipping his tea and thinking for a while. Then, with a hint of amusement on his face, he said, "Then let's formally introduce myself."

Suddenly, Minato Namikaze also became serious. He didn't expect that the other party really had no intention of hiding anything.

"Hello, Fourth Hokage, I am the Sixth Hokage, Shintogawa Xiali." As he spoke, Xiali used the summoning technique from the sealed scroll on his body. The next moment, Xia Li was wearing a piece of clothing that was very similar to Namikaze Minato's.

The divine robe has a white base and flame patterns, and the name "Sixth Hokage" is written on the back.

After doing all this, Xia Li just looked at Minato Namikaze, and smiled at the other's shocked expression.

"The Sixth Hokage?" Namikaze Minato looked at Xia Li with his eyes wide open. No matter how much he thought about it, he never thought that the other party might have come from the future. But why did he have a feeling that he seemed to have met someone from the future?
"That's right, I am the Hokage who came back from the future to the present, and I probably came here from another world." Xia Li said.

Namikaze Minato was completely speechless at this moment. His mind was in a mess, but if it was really as Xia Li said, then...

Namikaze Minato thought about it and realized that this could perfectly explain everything Xia Li possessed, including ninjutsu, strength, and sealing techniques...

but……

"So, Kushina and I should have died in this Nine-Tails riot?" Namikaze Minato suddenly asked.

Xia Li nodded and said, "Yes."

"So, you changed history?!" Minato Namikaze's voice was a little heavy. He wanted to blame, but he couldn't blame Xia Li who saved them.

Xia Li nodded, then shook his head and said, "Actually, I don't think history has necessarily changed. After all, I am not a part of this world. Maybe I was involved in the original history of this world."

Suddenly, Namikaze Minato fell silent, and then asked, "Are you sure this is not your world?"

Minato Namikaze was also a little surprised about having a different world, but he quickly accepted this setting and asked further questions based on this setting.

"Sure. After the incident with Kyuubi ended last night, I did some special research on it." Xia Li said.

Minato Namikaze looked at Xia Li, his heart was in turmoil. He didn't know whether he should believe Xia Li. Although the other party was his benefactor, the words he said were too hard to believe.

At this time, Xia Li looked at Shuimen again and said with a smile, "So it was indeed the right decision for me not to reveal my identity at the beginning."

Namikaze Minato looked at Xia Li with some confusion.

"If my identity is exposed, you probably won't let me help you even if you die, right?" Xia Li said. Just like the incident with the dragon vein, in the end, Namikaze Minato erased everyone's memory of each other.

The reason is that Minato Namikaze was worried that knowing the future would affect history, and he even took the initiative to ask Naruto not to reveal anything about the future.

Therefore, it is entirely possible that once Minato Namikaze knows that Xia Li is the man of the future, he will not let Xia Li take action again.

Even if Xia Li wanted to take action, Namikaze Minato couldn't stop him, but it wouldn't be good to have it happen without your consent. It would be better to do it like this and let the matter be settled.

No matter what, it is impossible for Minato Namikaze to commit suicide with Kushina just because of the real history...

Besides, Minato Namikaze is also doubting his words now. If he was not the other party's benefactor, Minato Namikaze would have regarded him as a lunatic long ago, right?
After hearing this, Minato Namikaze paused and finally nodded. Perhaps he would make such a choice. The other party knew more about him than he imagined, so this further proved that the other party might be a person from the future, and there was another him in the other party's world.

"So, believe it or not, we will see each other again, or never see each other again." Xia Li said as he put down the cup in his hand. The purpose of his coming here had been achieved.

The next moment, Xia Li disappeared in the Hokage's office, leaving Namikaze Minato alone there staring blankly into the distance.

Finally, Namikaze Minato gave a bitter smile. What else could he do? It was too late to commit suicide, and it was impossible to commit suicide...

It would be too unreasonable for him to commit suicide because of something he couldn't confirm was true or not.

Therefore, they can only take one step at a time. Just as Xia Li said, their future is still uncertain. Maybe it is inevitable that Xia Li will come?
Thinking of this, Minato Namikaze suddenly paused, then seemed to have thought of something, his figure disappeared from the Hokage's office and came to the archives room.

Finally, Minato Namikaze found a file and started to flip through it. Although Minato Namikaze's hand covered a lot of words, he could still see the three words "Shintogawa".

After closing the file, Namikaze Minato let out a breath and murmured, "Shintogawa... Xia Li."

Minato Namikaze thought for a while, and then thought of the orphanage that Xia Li asked him to take care of. That was where the son of the owner of this file was, so... was it what he imagined?
Soon, Minato Namikaze arrived in front of the orphanage, walked in, and saw the pharmacist Nono who was taking care of the children.

When Yakushi Nono saw Namikaze Minato, surprise flashed in her eyes. She naturally knew the Fourth Hokage, and she hurried over to greet him.

"Hokage-sama, what brings you here?"

Namikaze Minato smiled at Yakushi Nono, saying that he didn't need to be so polite, and then asked, "Is the child of the Shintogawa family here?"

Pharmacist Nono nodded and looked at Minato Namikaze with some confusion. She didn't know why Minato Namikaze was looking for that little guy, but she felt that as the Hokage, Minato Namikaze should not do anything bad to a baby, right?

So Yakushi Nono brought Namikaze Minato to Xiao Xiali and said, "This little guy is the child of the Shendaochuan family. He has been without parents and relatives since he was born. If no one takes care of him, he will definitely be abandoned, so I brought him back to take care of him."

As he spoke, Pharmacist Nono looked at Xiao Xiali and smiled, "But this little guy never cries or makes a fuss, and he's not picky about food, which makes us worry-free."

Namikaze Minato nodded, thought for a moment and then asked, "Did anything happen here last night?"

Yakushi Nono thought for a while and then said, "I think Hokage-sama also knows about the Nine-Tails. I won't say much about it. The strange thing is that after the Nine-Tails, I had already coaxed all the children to sleep, but they suddenly started crying again."

Namikaze Minato was thoughtful after hearing this. So was it Xia Li who came over last night and made them cry? This is a bit of a bad taste...

Minato Namikaze was also a little bit amused, but the other party did not do anything bad to these children, and even asked him to take care of the orphanage, so it was still pretty good.

How did the other party know for sure that this was not his world? Namikaze Minato had an idea about this, so he came to verify it.

Namikaze Minato thought that it was probably from his own experience in this world that the other party might have discovered that his own experience in this world was different from his, so he was able to determine...

Minato Namikaze looked at the little guy in front of him and found that he was looking at him with wide eyes. He immediately smiled. Isn't he afraid of strangers?
Little did he know that Xiao Xia Li was probably shocked. If he could speak, he would be asking, "Wasn't there the Nine-Tailed Fox Rebellion last night? Why aren't you dead yet?" At this time, Namikaze Minato suddenly said, "I don't know your name yet."

"I'm sorry, Lord Hokage, please forgive me for forgetting to introduce myself. I am Yakushi Nono, the director of this orphanage." Yakushi Nono said hurriedly.

"Don't apologize. It must be hard for you to support such a large orphanage by yourself, right?" Namikaze Minato said with a tone full of respect.

Pharmacist Nono didn't know how to answer, so he just nodded.

"Actually, it's not that bad. There are some older kids who will help me take care of them." Pharmacist Nono smiled when he thought of Kabuto, and then slowly turned it into a wry smile.

If it were just these, it would be fine. The key point is that she still needs to face the coercion of those guys...

Suddenly, Yakushi Nono looked at Namikaze Minato, wondering if this was an opportunity.

"Can I give this little guy a name?" Namikaze Minato suddenly said.

"Of course, you are the Hokage, it is his honor to be able to name him." Yakushi Nono also felt that Namikaze Minato seemed to care very much about this little guy.

"Don't say that, um..." Namikaze Minato thought, Xia Li said that this is not his world, so even if he was named something else, the other party wouldn't mind, right?

However, speaking of naming Xiao Xiali, Minato Namikaze is actually a bad namer. Many of the names he gave to his own moves were rejected by Jiraiya and Kushina...

However, Minato Namikaze himself thinks that he is very good at naming, right? So should I give him a name according to my own ideas?

In the end, Minato Namikaze gave up. After all, a person's name will follow him for the rest of his life, and it might not be a good idea to be so casual.

Suddenly, Minato Namikaze's eyes lit up, and he suddenly remembered a name. He originally wanted to give it to Naruto, but after reading the book of Teacher Jiraiya, he changed Naruto's name to Naruto.

"Menma, just call him Menma." said Minato Namikaze.

"Okay, may I ask your last name..." Pharmacist Nono asked again.

"As for the surname, it's up to you. You can call him Shintogawa, or you can call him something else." Namikaze Minato said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, in that case, then let's call him Namikaze Menma." Yakushi Nono said tentatively. She wanted to see how much the Fourth Hokage cared about this child.

Namikaze Minato paused, then looked at Yakushi Nono, nodded, and did not refuse.

Suddenly, Yakushi Nono smiled. Although this test seemed very dangerous, considering Minato Namikaze's interest in the little guy, this test was worth it and it was successful.

This means that there is a connection between this child and the Fourth Hokage, which may be useful in the future.

At this time, Namikaze Minato thought for a while and then said, "I will support this orphanage in the future. As for Menma, I hope that when he reaches the school age, you can send him to the Ninja School. You can ask me to reimburse his school fees."

Suddenly, Yakushi Nono opened his eyes wide, then burst into tears of joy, and choked up and said, "Thank you, thank you! Hokage-sama."

Minato Namikaze looked at the pharmacist Nono who was crying with joy, and also lamented how difficult it was for him. He looked at the not few babies around him. These were the only babies, and he didn't know how many children of other grades there were.

It is not a good thing to have so many orphans in a village. It made Minato Namikaze feel a little heavy and a little self-blaming, thinking that he was not doing a good enough job as Hokage.

At this time, Yakushi Nono finally made a decision.

And the little Xia Li, no, Namikaze Menma, who was still lying there, blinked blankly. He... couldn't understand what the two people in front of him were saying.

It should be something about himself, but Menma Namikaze looked at the crying Nono Yakushi, and then looked at Minato Namikaze, feeling a little bit disillusioned with his idol. Well, you are actually such a Minato Namikaze!

It wasn't enough to have Uzumaki Kushina, he even went after his dean! As expected, like master, like disciple, Jiraiya was like that, and Namikaze Minato was not much better!
Namikaze Menma was furious. Although he didn't know why this guy didn't die in the Nine-Tails Rebellion, he couldn't bully others even if he was still alive!
At this time, Minato Namikaze also noticed the movements of Menma Namikaze, and thought of Naruto, thinking that he was very cute, so he couldn't help but reach out and hug Menma Namikaze.

Pharmacist Nono was also watching this scene with a smile.

Then, the furious Namikaze Menma didn't notice this scene. He only knew that the time for revenge had come. As for the way he would take revenge, there was only one way...

Lao Deng, watch out!
Minato Namikaze's face froze, and he felt embarrassed as he felt the wet clothes on his chest.

"Well, I'm sorry, Hokage, he has never been like this before!" Yakushi Nono also reacted and immediately wanted to cry. What if Namikaze Minato got angry and didn't want to support them?
Yakushi Nono quickly took Namikaze Menma from Namikaze Minato's arms, while constantly apologizing.

"Haha, it doesn't matter. My child is born. Let me enjoy it in advance." Namikaze Minato was not angry and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Hokage." Yakushi Nono breathed a sigh of relief. As expected, she still felt that the Hokage in front of her had a much better personality, unlike Danzo. Otherwise, she would just change jobs...

Anyway, we are all loyal to Konoha, and it would be more prestigious to work under Lord Hokage. However, Lord Danzo may not agree, so we still have to ask Lord Hokage for help.

Moreover, Yakushi Nono looked at Menma Namikaze in her arms. She felt that the relationship of Menma Namikaze alone might not be enough, and she herself had to show enough value!
At this time, Namikaze Minato said, "Then I will leave first. I will send someone to check the number of orphans and confirm the amount of funding."

"Thank you, Lord Hokage." At this time, Yakushi Nono also felt that Namikaze Minato must be serious, so he thanked him again.

Minato Namikaze nodded, then disappeared from the orphanage. He had to go back quickly to change his clothes.

At this moment, what they didn't notice was that there was a figure who had been paying attention to the situation here.

It was Xia Li.

He heard everything that Minato Namikaze and Nono Yakushi said.

"Namikaze Menma...?" Xia Li rubbed his forehead. He didn't expect that Namikaze Minato would be so ruthless. He was almost accepting him as his godson, right?

If Namikaze Minato really did that, Xia Li felt that he should step in to stop him. He didn't want to have an extra godfather... even though they were not from the same world.

Xia Li was also thinking at this time. It seemed that little Xia Li, no, Menma Namikaze also had to go to school, probably to the same class.

By then, there will be two Namikazes in the class, Namikaze Naruto and Namikaze Menma, and I don’t know how Namikaze Minato will explain it to Kushina.

After all, if the Fourth Hokage hadn't died, there would be no need to hide Naruto's identity, so there would be no need to change Naruto's name to Uzumaki.

Although the Fourth Hokage has many enemies, it is impossible for him to touch Naruto under the nose of Minato Namikaze. Even if he does, he must be prepared to bear Minato Namikaze's tremendous wrath, which is not cost-effective.

"Yakushi Nono, Yakushi Kabuto..." Xia Li murmured the two names.

In fact, he is now very interested in the direction of this world. With Menma Namikaze around, their fate may take a turn, but unfortunately, he probably won't be able to see the entire direction.

At this time, Xia Li also felt that he would not have much time to stay here. Perhaps the culprit that caused this time and space turmoil had been dealt with, so he would go back with them.

It’s a bit of a pity.

Xia Li looked at Namikaze Menma, and then his figure disappeared in this space and time.
