"If you continue to wander outside, the things you fear will eventually become reality because of your weakness."

Upon hearing this, Kyoko couldn't help but ask, "Although this is a very impolite question, I still want to ask, aren't you even a little bit tempted by my abilities?"

Uchiha Yuzuru chuckled a few times and said, "In this ninja world, there is no one who can put my life on the line yet."

Seeing Yuzuru Uchiha's confident demeanor, Kyoko and Michifu exchanged a glance and said in a deep voice, "Lord Yuzuru, we are willing to go to Kumogakure with you!"

Uchiha Yuzuru nodded and turned to walk outside.

When Kyoko and Michio followed them out, their mouths gaped open in surprise.

Corpses were everywhere outside, houses had collapsed, and the few dozen remaining grass ninjas stood with their heads down, their faces filled with fear.

Seeing their expressions, Xianfu smiled wryly and said, "Now you believe I didn't betray you, right?"

"Because of the two of you, Kusagakure almost got wiped out of the ninja world."

Hearing Kenji's complaint, Uchiha Yuzuru snorted: "This tiny place isn't even big enough for me to mess around with all by myself."

Upon hearing this, Kenji immediately nodded with a smile, "Lord Yuzuru, I'm truly sorry that I couldn't make you enjoy yourself to the fullest this time."

Uchiha Yuzuru's lips curled up slightly.

Who says ninjas can't flatter? This flattery is superb.

Minato Namikaze slowly woke up in his hospital bed, staring blankly at the white ceiling.

Having trained with Jiraiya for several years, he believed he possessed sufficient power, which is why he took the initiative to go to the battlefield to help stabilize the village.

At first, things were indeed as he had imagined; with the Flying Thunder God Technique, he had almost no rivals.

Even the Jonin from various villages were powerless against him.

This feeling reached its peak after defeating the elite Jonin team led by Fugaku Uchiha.

Minato Namikaze even thought he could keep winning.

Until Uchiha Yuzuru appeared...

The person who once took Kushina away from Konoha has once again caused him to suffer a crushing defeat.

If it weren't for his severe injuries causing the seal on the Nine-Tails within him to loosen, and the Nine-Tails using its own chakra to heal his fatal wounds immediately, he would probably be a corpse by now.

He had actually conceived of the opponent's final move many times in his mind, but he hadn't yet integrated it into a systematic concept.

After witnessing Uchiha Yuzuru's technique, he finally had a sudden realization.

Especially that name—Spiral Flash Super Wheel Dance God Might II!

It was exactly what he wanted.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that in every aspect, he was outdone by Uchiha Yuzuru.

If he had to describe it, Minato Namikaze felt like he was living in the shadow of Yuzuru Uchiha.

Chapter 126 I'm Going to Become Hokage?

Minato Namikaze entered his spiritual world and slowly walked to the iron gate that sealed the Nine-Tails.

The nine-tailed fox's enormous body was completely hidden in the shadows, with only its massive head visible.

Hearing the noise, Nine-Tails opened its eyes and looked around, then closed them again and pretended to sleep.

Minato Namikaze, used to Kurama's attitude, asked to himself, "Kurama, why did you save me back then?"

Upon hearing this, Nine-Tailed Fox said indifferently, "Because I hate those eyes even more than you."

Minato Namikaze nodded, then suddenly asked, "Could you lend me your power?"

Kurama opened its eyes, glanced at Minato Namikaze, and snorted, "Why should I?"

Minato Namikaze said seriously, "Because with my own strength, I am no match for Yuzuru Uchiha."

"The next time we fight, I might die at the hands of Uchiha Yuzuru."

"Although you tailed beasts can be resurrected, you don't want to be controlled by those Mangekyou Sharingan, do you?"

Over the years since becoming the Nine-Tails' jinchūriki, he has learned a great deal about the Nine-Tails' story.

Therefore, it is also known that the Mangekyou Sharingan has a powerful restraining effect on tailed beasts.

Before those eyes, even the Nine-Tails was nothing more than a slightly larger toy.

Kurama snorted coldly and ignored Minato Namikaze.

Seeing this, Minato Namikaze secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as he didn't directly refuse, it means his idea isn't impossible to achieve.

If he possessed the power of the Nine-Tails, he would be confident of fighting Uchiha Yuzuru again.

Sensing movement in the outside world, Minato Namikaze left the spiritual realm.

When I opened my eyes, I saw Hiruzen Sarutobi walk in.

"Minato, are you feeling any better lately?"

Meeting Hiruzen Sarutobi's concerned gaze, Minato Namikaze smiled and nodded: "Hokage-sama, I'm basically recovered, and the doctor said I can be discharged tomorrow."

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a drag of his cigarette and said slowly, "You shouldn't go to the battlefield recently. The village can't lose you as the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki."

This incident involving Minato Namikaze really terrified him.

If Minato Namikaze were killed by Yuzuru Uchiha, then Konoha would truly be doomed.

With Minato, the Jinchuriki who mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, as their trump card, at least those hostile ninja villages won't easily fight Konoha to the death.

Otherwise, a living Minato would definitely become a nightmare for every ninja village.

Upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's decision, Minato Namikaze asked in confusion, "What about the battlefield at the front?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said in a deep voice, "I will have Jiraiya and the Konoha ninja clan hold off the enemy's attack as much as possible. If it really doesn't work, we will give up some land on the front line to buy time with space."

"I have already instructed Orochimaru to expedite the improvement of the Impure World Reincarnation technique. When the time comes, it can serve as our last trump card to protect Konoha, together with you."

Upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's plan, Minato Namikaze still felt somewhat uneasy.

He felt a little guilty about leaving him in the village to watch his comrades fight on the battlefield.

"Alright!" Hiruzen Sarutobi's face turned serious. "Minato, I'm getting old. You need to be prepared to take over my work."

The sudden news left Minato Namikaze stunned for a moment, then he became so excited that his body trembled slightly.

"Lord Hokage, you want to choose me to become Hokage?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi laughed and said, "That's right. You already have a high reputation among everyone. As the successor of the village, you should focus on learning how to handle village affairs from me during this time."

Minato Namikaze immediately sat up straight and shouted, "I will do my best!"

Becoming Hokage was his dream since childhood.

Now... is it finally going to happen?

Looking at the young Minato Namikaze, Hiruzen Sarutobi narrowed his eyes.

Since the start of the Third Shinobi World War, Orochimaru has disobeyed his orders on numerous occasions.

This also made him realize that his disciple had long since become fully capable.

If Orochimaru were to become Hokage, he would probably really have to retire at home.

Compared to Orochimaru, the young and unestablished Minato Namikaze was clearly easier to control.

In this way, even if he is forced to retreat behind the scenes due to the defeat in the war, he will still be able to keep the power of the village firmly in his hands.

Uchiha Yuzuru took Michio and Kyoko to the Raikage Building first.

Upon hearing that the two were members of the Uzumaki clan who had been separated from their families, the Third Raikage was immediately delighted and instructed Tsuchida to register them.

From today onwards, Michifumi and Kyoko will be ninjas of Kumogakure.

Upon hearing Uchiha Yuzuru say that the Land of Grass had submitted and surrendered, he burst into laughter, his hearty laughter almost echoing out of the Raikage Building.

"Yuzuru, I was guessing before you came back that you might bring good news this time, and it seems I was right."

"You've really got something to do to make a country submit in such a short time."

The Third Raikage looked at Uchiha Yuzuru with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

It should be noted that he hasn't made any progress on this matter yet.

Uchiha Yuzuru said calmly, "One of the reasons for overthrowing the daimyo and making ninjas the rulers of the country was for the present."

"Under the rule of the ninjas, people's ideas have gradually changed."

“In the past, people valued noble titles and bloodlines, but now they value military strength more.”

"Whether one is powerful or not has become an important factor in the succession of power. In this case, conquering a ninja village is basically equivalent to conquering a country."

Upon hearing this, the Third Raikage's eyes showed even more admiration.

This is Yuzuru Hanyu.

The only man in the current ninja world who can truly convince him!

Recalling the night he first met Uchiha Yuzuru, the Third Raikage couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

In this life, sometimes being smart just once is enough.

"Alright, it's getting late, I'll take Daofu and Xingzi back first."

After leaving the Raikage Building, Uchiha Yuzuru led Michio and Kyoko to a house next to the Uchiha clan's territory.

The ninjas who came to Kumogakure because of him were all assigned to nearby areas.

People like the Blood Pond Clan, Sakumo Hatake, and Might Guy all reside here.

Upon seeing the brand-new house, Michifu and Kyoko knelt directly in front of Uchiha Yuzuru.

Along their journey, they had already witnessed the prosperity of the Land of Lightning.

They were able to settle in Kumogakure as ninja and even own a detached house in the central area...

This was something we would never have dared to imagine before.

"You guys go back and pack your things first. I'll bring Kushina to see you tomorrow."

"By the way, you don't need to hide your surnames anymore. Uzumaki Michio, Uzumaki Kyoko."

Upon hearing this, the two immediately had tears in their eyes and prostrated themselves on the ground: "Lord Yuzuru, we will always remember your kindness."

Chapter 127 Nagato and Konan

Uchiha clan.

In the reception hall, Kushina Uzumaki looked at Kyoko Uzumaki and Michio Uzumaki, and her expression couldn't help but become somewhat excited.

Since the destruction of the Land of Whirlpools, the Uzumaki clan has been wandering throughout the ninja world.

Sometimes she couldn't help but think that perhaps she was the only remaining surviving member of the Uzumaki clan in the ninja world.

Unexpectedly, I met two of my own people today.

Their bright red hair, in particular, makes them look incredibly endearing.

"Kushina-sama."

Michio Uzumaki and Kyoko Uzumaki bowed respectfully, both feeling somewhat excited.

It's a wonderful feeling to encounter someone from your own tribe in an unfamiliar place.

After pouring them both a cup of tea, Kushina Uzumaki asked, "Michio, Kyoko, could you tell me your story?"

Hearing this, Kyoko smiled and said, "Of course."

"When the Land of Whirlpools was destroyed, we escaped through a secret passage with our parents and a few other members of our clan..."

As Kyoko narrated, Kushina Uzumaki's expression gradually became somewhat sorrowful.

As objects of everyone's covetousness, the Uzumaki clan has experienced too many tragedies outside.

In contrast, although she was constantly under surveillance by the secret service, at least her life was relatively stable back then...

The three chatted for more than two hours. Seeing that it was getting late, Kyoko and Michio got up to say goodbye.
