Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

Minato looked at Tsukiki and asked.

"It's all for the future."

Tsukiki said calmly, then looked at Minato.

"I'll leave it to you from now on."

Minato was taken aback, then his eyes hardened.

"Okay, I'll take care of it."

Tsukiki smiled and stretched out his fist. Minato did the same, and their fists bumped together.

"Then I'll have to do it this time."

The Grim Reaper began to stretch out his hands, toward the Nine-Tails that had been knocked to the ground.

The nine-tailed fox kept howling, as if it were afraid.

The Grim Reaper's expression was unreadable as he silently attacked the Nine-Tails.

"Moon Tree---"

Kushina was gently put down, and Naruto was also gently placed next to Kushina.

Minato and Mikoto stood guard nearby. Minato had already set up a barrier beforehand, so the state of things inside was invisible to those outside.

Tsukishiki shouted and controlled the Shinigami to grab the Nine-Tails.

The Nine-Tails kept howling, its power flowing out from the Grim Reaper's hand. The Nine-Tails was suppressed and had no chance to fight back.

"Half of the Nine-Tails?"

The Nine-Tails was split into two, with the Shinigami holding one in each hand. Minato then realized what Tsukuyomi was planning.

Kushina and Naruto, one Nine-Tails Jinchuriki split into two Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

Minato now understands Tsukuyomi's purpose: the power of the Nine-Tails, powerful yet evil, a power known as a calamity, can also be a good power if used properly.

"Holding two balls of Nine-Tails chakra in his hands, Tsukiju manipulated them and directed them toward Kushina and Naruto."

The Grim Reaper's movements became gentler, no longer as exaggerated as when dealing with the Nine-Tails, but rather very light.

Two balls of chakra began to drill into Kushina and Naruto's abdomens, and the two balls of chakra slowly shrank.

"Naruto, you must be a good boy and listen to your mom and uncles and aunts from now on."

"There are still many things I want to tell you, but your mother will tell you those things slowly. You need to grow up quickly and protect your mother well."

Tsukiki began to give Naruto instructions, while Mikoto and Minato watched quietly. This was the first time Tsukiki had spoken as a father, and it might also be the last.

"You'll know all this someday. Until then, grow up well and become the person you want to be."

"Keep your word and forge ahead."

Tsukiki smiled, bent down, and kissed Naruto on the forehead.

Itachi and Sasuke both kissed him once, so Naruto didn't miss out either.

Almost all of the Nine-Tails' chakra had already entered.

The Nine-Tails incident was nearing its end, and Tsukiki's gaze shifted from Naruto to Kushina.

"I'll leave Kushina to you."

Tsukiki smiled helplessly.

"understood."

Minato and Mikoto nodded.

Tsukiki approached Kushina and gently kissed her forehead, then did the same to Mikoto.

"Alright, let's remove the barrier."

"I'll clean up the mess."

Minato looked at Tsukiki; his aura was slowly waning.

Minato formed hand seals, and the barrier surrounding the area dissipated. The Konoha ninjas who had gathered around cheered with joy after seeing that the Nine-Tails had been defeated.

Tsukiki didn't do that; he was looking in one direction, towards Yahiko and Kizuki.

A gigantic Grim Reaper still clung to the top, its immense pressure sending chills down the spines of the celebrating Konoha troops who dared not approach.

"It seems this is the only way this time."

Mu Yue shrugged, seemingly not too concerned.

Yahiko remained silent, watching them from a distance, especially from Tsukiki.

The pressure of death ultimately overwhelmed them, and with the feeling that getting close would definitely be disastrous, Yahiko and Kizuki did not approach.

"Go back."

Tsukigi alone is enough to suppress them now, and with the addition of Konoha's newly released fighting force, the outcome is already decided.

"One day the world will understand the desire."

Yahiko gave a signal and led the Akatsuki members to retreat.

Kizuki also quietly left; there was no point in staying any longer.

With the retreating Blade Style and the defeated enemy, this battle is a victory for Konoha!

Chapter 297: Who am I?

"The system activates backup power, and the AI ​​restarts."

"The system detects that the target vortex Kushina is in a normal state and has normal life signs in the spatiotemporal environment."

"Congratulations, host. All your efforts in the 154 time loops have been rewarded."

Hearing the system's electronic voice, Yue Shu smiled.

"As long as someone's efforts are not wasted, that's good enough."

Death began to fade away, and Tsukiki breathed slowly.

"Host, your power is slowly fading away. Next, your memories will revert to how they were when you first came into this world."

"System, will our future be bright?"

"Host, each timeline will be different; this is unpredictable."

"Really? Just believe it, just like I did."

"Host, the system will do its best to assist you. I wish you great success in your martial arts and that you will reach the pinnacle."

"Thanks, bro."

Tsuki's gaze darkened, and the Grim Reaper vanished completely.

Her body went limp, the whole world began to sink into darkness, and the moon tree fell straight down.

Minato stepped forward and hugged Tsukiki tightly.

Mikoto's face was somber. She had heard about the consequences of the Shiki seal, and she knew nothing about the consequences for Tsukiju.

"Wait, there's still a breath."

Minato sensed the Moon Tree's presence and was slightly surprised.

"Could it be?"

Mikoto's tone revealed joy, as if she was longing for something.

The moon tree is not dead, or something like that.

Minato was indeed very surprised, as he knew the serious consequences of sealing away the corpse demon.

The power he gained was given to the Grim Reaper at the cost of his soul. Even later, the Impure World Reincarnation couldn't revive Minato because his soul was already in the hands of the Grim Reaper.

"Put Tsukiki and the others in their places first, and Kushina and Naruto too."

Minato looked at Mikoto.

"Leave the rest to me, this useless Fourth Hokage."

Minato smiled helplessly. In the end, he still couldn't do much in the face of Konoha's crisis.

Mikoto nodded, and the surrounding ninjas were already approaching.

Minato had made up his mind; he wanted to claim this power. Tsukuyomi wouldn't like that, and the damage caused by Kurama's rampage this time was extraordinary. It was also not good for Kurama's Jinchūriki to be exposed.

In general, it's not advisable for Yue Shu's family to be exposed.

Minato is the one who stands at the forefront among them, so it would be best for him to take on these responsibilities. Although it's a bit unfair to Kushina, this will definitely boost his reputation a lot.

"It's the Fourth Hokage!"

"Could it be that the Hokage defeated the Nine-Tails? That's amazing!"

"Long live the Hokage!"

The surrounding ninjas gathered around, cheering loudly, and Minato stood in the middle of the cheers.

Minato started dealing with the aftermath, while Mikoto, along with Kakashi and the others, began taking Kushina and the others to the hospital.

Everything has come to an end; now it's time to deal with the post-war situation.

"Lord Hokage, the recovery process will now require your supervision. The current losses are still being calculated."

After the battle ended, Minato immediately returned to his post. The Hokage is the one who leads Konoha forward, always at the forefront no matter what.

"I understand. First, treat the wounded properly, and don't forget anyone."

"receive."

Minato was dealing with these trivial matters, and a whole host of things were about to come, but Minato was used to it. The Hokage was always this busy when there were important matters, and that's why Konoha was able to develop so quickly.

"call."

After dealing with a series of matters, Minato was finally able to relax for a while.

Minato turned his gaze to the side, looking in the direction of the hospital.

Minato's gaze was deep and far-reaching.
