Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 388 One shouldn't be too kind.

Chapter 388 One shouldn't be too kind...

[This station's reporter reports that since the Hidden Stone Village and the Hidden Sand Village jointly issued a proclamation of attack on the Land of Birds last month, the two villages have launched their third wave of attacks on the Land of Birds.]

I am currently at the border between the Land of Wind and the Land of Birds.

Our reporter has been invited to the front lines of the battle in Sunagakure to bring you firsthand news. Next, on behalf of Konoha, I will interview Mr. Rasa, the chief commander of Sunagakure's attack on the Land of Birds!

At Minato Namikaze's house, the television was playing news, but neither Kushina Uzumaki nor Minato Namikaze were interested in the news being broadcast.

Although that so-called announcement had the feel of a denunciation of traitors, it was ultimately not.

Moreover, this kind of announcement can only fool people who know nothing. For someone like Minato Namikaze, who works in the dark side, it has no reference value at all.

The nations of Wind and Earth are going to attack the Bird Nation; does it think it can resist?!

Okay, he did rebel.

The weapons we traded back from Youya were for the purpose of resistance.

"How long do you think this war will last?" Kushina asked Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze shook his head: "I certainly don't know, but it's impossible for the Land of Birds to avoid paying a price this time."

Kushina rolled her eyes: "Do you think the king of the Bird Kingdom is out of his mind? Why would he provoke the Wind and Earth Kingdoms?"

Basically, everyone at the Jonin level or above knows about this incident.

There is no situation where the underlying reasons are not understood.

The Bird Country hops back and forth, and when you connect the names of the two countries, you think, "Wow, this Bird Country is quite the jumpy one."

No doubt about it, beat him up.

If we don't make him the scapegoat, other countries might also have similar ideas to provoke them.

Theoretically speaking, the Bird Country has nothing that the two great powers of Feng and Tu have anything to covet.

So unless there are special circumstances, the wind and earth will not target them.

Therefore, if you really want to say it, although the Bird Country was being attacked this time, to be fair, the responsibility really does lie with them.

Otherwise, why would the two countries of Fengtu have nothing better to do than beat you up?

You have no resources, no technology, what's the point of fighting?

Of course, now that a war has broken out, we must take full advantage of this situation.

For example, in Sunagakure, this time it was Gaara's father, Gaara, who gained military merit and appeared in the sight of the villagers of Sunagakure.

Yes, Granny Chiyo is quite old, already in her sixties, so naturally she needs to prepare for the next Kazekage of Sunagakure.

Well, while Sunagakure is certainly not as wealthy as Konoha and Kumogakure at this stage, it is, to be fair, infinitely better off than in the original historical period when people had to pan for gold in the sand.

Of course, although history has changed in this respect, one thing is certain to remain unchanged.

For example, the way that idiot Luo Sha educates his son.

To be honest, this guy is just not cut out to be a father.

Look at this guy, he actually accepted Granny Chiyo's arrangement to be the person in charge of this war. This shows that his goal is already set on becoming the next Kazekage.

However, if you want to become a Shadow, being impatient is not a sign of excellence.

of course……

Although Luo Sha is not outstanding, he can still be considered an heir.

Yuya's side...

He couldn't even find a candidate for the fourth Hokage...

Yes, not a single one.

As for Minato Namikaze...

"The Land of Birds has no choice," Minato Namikaze explained to Kushina with a smile. "Their country has few resources and low technology. Their only airship technology will probably be given to the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth as compensation. Basically, this country will become a buffer zone between the two great powers, just like the Land of Iron."

It's a pity for the people of the Bird Kingdom.

Last time, Yua and Raikage cooperated, one of their purposes being to clean their own house and throw out some of their enemies to kill.

Another reason was to suppress the Iron Country.

As mentioned before, it's not that you can't make money in the Land of Iron, but you can't make money outside the control of the Lands of Fire and Lightning.

We'll build the railway for you; how can you have the idea of building it yourself?

In fact, this is the real reason why Yua and Raikage cooperated.

The Land of Iron can have its own ideas and its own government, but it cannot have a government that is outside their control.

This is a given for both of them.

Yes, it is indeed a bit gloomy, but that's what the Land of Iron is all about.

Since it's not your own country, what's there to say? Showing kindness isn't the kind of mentality a movie star should have.

Yes, you can actually see from this that the most unsuitable thing for Minato Namikaze to be Hokage is these minor details.

If you say Minato Namikaze wasn't ruthless enough, then after all these years since he became a Jonin, he's done missions outside the village, killed people, and even wiped out a village with a single ninjutsu.

Isn't that ruthless enough?!

Generally speaking, that's already quite ruthless.

But this is from the perspective of a ninja, a member of the Anbu ninja.

But this is not the case for Shadow.

For example, Yua made a phone call to the Raikage and decided to stage a play, which turned the Land of Iron into a battlefield. Moreover, the country was bound to fall into turmoil, and people were bound to die. How many people would die depended on the situation.

Yuya and Raikage, however, were indifferent to this fact.

This is the kind of mentality a film should have.

Now, let's return to the matter of the Bird Country.

It's indeed pitiful that the Bird Kingdom was attacked, but if you're a Shadow, you shouldn't have this kind of unnecessary sympathy.

only……

On the other hand, Minato Namikaze is just an ordinary Jonin now, and he probably never even had any ambition for the Hokage position. It's not surprising that he would have extra sympathy for him.

He never wanted to become Hokage!

Kushina watched the news and, together with Minato Namikaze, expressed sympathy for the Land of Birds.

Little did they know that their kindness would cause them to miss out on the position of Hokage.

Of course, given their circumstances, their first reaction upon finding out would probably be joy.

Because of the position of Hokage...

It's really difficult...

……

The following month, March of Konoha 56.

Naruto Uzumaki, with Kushina holding his hand and carrying his little backpack, walked towards the kindergarten on the Hyuga clan's territory.

Yes, Naruto Uzumaki ultimately chose the Hyuga clan's kindergarten.

As for the reason...

The Hyuga clan's kindergarten can play games on TV—they must be rich.
