Shirou's clones number 30 million

Even if, in the worst-case scenario, we cannot retrieve the Book of Seals, and only Kushina survives, that will be enough.

He took out a kunai and made a cut on Kushina's hand, from which blood slowly flowed into the empty bottle.

When the blood had filled two-thirds of the bottle, Minato Namikaze put the cap back on, bandaged Kushina's wound, and slowly stood up.

"Should we throw them at the same time?"

"Okay." Shirou nodded slightly.

Minato Namikaze threw the blood vial while simultaneously catching the healing medicine that Shirou threw at him.

Because he threw the blood vial with a lot of force, Shirou had to jump to catch it.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Minato Namikaze bent down and placed the healing medicine on the ground, then his body vanished instantly.

The next moment, it appeared out of thin air behind Shirou and the Third Hokage, with a Rasengan appearing in both palms at the same time.

You absolutely have to hit it!

Snapped!Snapped!

Both Shirou reached out at the same time and struck his left and right wrists.

In that instant, Minato Namikaze felt an unparalleled force, and the Rasengan in his hand involuntarily changed direction, slamming into the ground and creating two large craters.

“I hate it when people try to cheat during fair trades, so I have to teach you a lesson.”

Shirou, who looked like the third generation, frowned slightly, stepped forward, and placed the object in front of Minato Namikaze.

The other Shirou slowly walked towards Kushina Uzumaki.

Upon seeing this, Minato Namikaze immediately activated the Flying Thunder God Technique, intending to rush over and save the person.

However, with his chakra nearly depleted, the Flying Thunder God Technique failed to activate.

"What do you want to do? It was indeed wrong of me to cheat in a fair trade, but you also stole a lot of things from Konoha. How about we settle things once and for all?"

Seeing Shirou getting closer and closer to Kushina, Minato Namikaze's expression turned extremely grim. He pulled out a kunai from his ninja tool pouch, lowered his body, and secretly prepared to fight to the death.

Because Minato Namikaze acted too quickly, Kushina Uzumaki hadn't had time to drink the healing medicine and remained in a near-death state.

Looking up at the other person's eyes behind the mask, he suddenly realized that the other person wasn't looking at him, but at the baby Naruto in the swaddling clothes next to him, and he immediately became nervous.

"What...what do you want to do? Please, don't hurt Naruto, I'm willing to take his place."

“You can’t replace him. Rather, only your husband can replace Naruto. But I don’t think you want that to happen.”

Shirou stopped and stood two meters away from Kushina.

The next moment!

A beam of light shot from his left eye, hitting Naruto precisely.

"You bastard! What have you done?"

Minato Namikaze roared, then suddenly realized that Naruto seemed to be safe and sound, and his mind relaxed a little.

"What... exactly did you do?"

"Hahaha……"

Shirou laughed for a while before speaking:

"Speaking of which, something similar happened at the Uchiha clan earlier."

"I just wanted to collect Itachi Uchiha's blood, but he insisted on fighting me, which forced me to turn Sasuke into a baby girl."

"I didn't expect that the same thing would happen here."

"However, they are both babies, so it's not a big deal. Just consider it as having a daughter."

Minato Namikaze paused for a moment, then suddenly realized what was happening and calmly said:

"You're a transgender demon from the ninja world? So you're from the Uchiha clan."

"Jiraiya-sensei has been hunting you down, and Kakashi hates you to the core. Why did you turn them into women? Why... do something so horrible?"

"Is that too much?" Shirou retorted, then laughed. "They almost killed me once. As enemies, I clearly had the chance to kill them, but I didn't. Isn't that a form of mercy?"

"Mercy? For the person involved, it's worse than death."

Minato Namikaze added in his mind:

Jiraiya, who had always loved Tsunade, was in utter despair and even considered ending his own life.

"Goodbye."

Upon seeing yet another version of himself fly overhead, Shirou lost interest in chatting. He greeted the Shirou who resembled the Third Hokage, and the two of them vanished from the spot at the same time.

Chapter 49 Daughters are actually quite good too

Chapter 49, Section 49: Daughters Are Actually Quite Good Too

"gone?"

Minato Namikaze cautiously looked around before quickly running towards the dying Kushina.

After removing the bottle cap and feeding her the medicine, Kushina's complexion immediately became rosy, and her expression improved significantly.

"Kushina, how are you feeling?"

"much better."

Feeling her chakra rapidly recovering, Kushina Uzumaki breathed a sigh of relief, but when she turned to look at Naruto to the side, her expression became dazed.

Carefully lifting the swaddling clothes, I couldn't help but gasp.

The newborn son turned into a daughter.

“Minato, having a daughter is actually quite good too. I heard Kakashi say that people whose gender has been changed by the sex changer are truly and completely transformed into women, inside and out.”

"Ah."

Minato Namikaze couldn't help but hug Kushina and whispered:

"If Naruto grows up and finds out he was originally a boy, he will definitely be in great pain."

"Therefore, I will announce to the public that we had a daughter from the beginning, and the fact that she is a transgender person is something only the two of us should know."

Kushina Uzumaki nodded slightly, picked up Naruto again, and said hesitantly:

"Isn't Naruto a bit inappropriate as a name for a girl? How about Naruko?"

"it is good."

"From what that transgender demon said, it seems that Mikoto's child, Sasuke, has also been turned into a girl."

"Sasuke, like Naruto, was an infant, so there's not much of a problem. However, many people know that Fugaku's second child is a boy, so it's really hard to keep the news quiet."

“There’s always a way. This is all for the sake of the child’s healthy growth,” Kushina Uzumaki said with a light laugh.

"Yes, Naruto has just been born. As long as the two of us keep quiet, we can keep his gender a secret."

Minato Namikaze paused for a moment, then turned to look at the Nine-Tailed Fox not far away.

At this moment, it was lying there obediently, its pupils reflecting strange red patterns.

"Kushina, has your chakra recovered?"

"No problem, I've fully recovered. The medicine that guy gave me was too effective; there's still some left in the bottle. I'll have the medical department look into it later."

"I'll make the arrangements."

Minato Namikaze took out a sealing scroll and sealed the remaining quarter of the healing potion in the small bottle, then smiled and said:

"Now I really have no chakra left, Kushina. Could you please seal the Nine-Tails inside me?"

"Does Minato want to become a Jinchūriki?"

"Yes, the Nine-Tails is temporarily under control and unable to resist. From now on, I will bear the pain that Kushina suffered in the past."

Becoming a Jinchūriki, while granting immense power, is not necessarily a good thing.

Putting aside the psychological pressure, if things get out of control, those around them could be in danger.

This is how it is this time. If the Nine-Tails is resealed inside Kushina, and she has a second child in the future, something similar might happen again.

Therefore, excluding Kushina, the only remaining candidates are myself and Naruto.

But Naruto is still young, and if there were no other choice, Minato Namikaze would have preferred him to grow up happily like a normal child.

Ultimately, the choice is yours alone.

"Watergate..."

Kushina Uzumaki held her husband's hand, her face showing hesitation.

Seeing this, Minato smiled and said:

"My chakra has always been insufficient. Becoming the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki will allow me to better protect the village and you all. Please, Kushina."

"Since Minato has made up his mind, then... shall I begin?"

"bring it on!"

The enormous nine-tailed fox had just been sealed inside Minato Namikaze's body when the Third Hokage arrived with dozens of Anbu members.

Therefore, this scene was clearly reflected in the eyes of each of them.

"Minato, you... sealed the Nine-Tails inside your body?"

"Yes, Lord Sandai, this is the best choice."

"Minato, is that your child?"

The Third Hokage shifted his gaze to the baby Naruto in Kushina's arms, a look of curiosity on his face.

"Third Generation Lord, this is Kushina's newborn child, named Naru... Naruko, a girl."

Minato Namikaze's words sounded a little awkward.

It will obviously take some time for a newborn son to suddenly turn into a daughter and for the family to accept this fact.

"Lord Sandai, is everything alright in the village?"
