Avengers of the Whirlpool Family

"Hehe, it wasn't Orochimaru who summoned us, but Lady Tsunade. And I wasn't the only one summoned. This is what happened..."

The father and son looked at each other.

Minato also gave a brief account in a low voice of how he, Kushina and the others were summoned by Tsunade's Impure World Summoning.

When I heard that Kushina had also reappeared and was waiting for me outside Mount Myoboku.

Naruto's heart was stirred. Although he was always positive and optimistic, even a little carefree, it didn't mean that Naruto had never felt lonely. Otherwise, how could Naruto be so obsessed with Sasuke? How could he be so excited when he learned that Menma was his biological brother! ?

Deep down, Naruto has always longed for family affection and to be loved by others.

Even he knew that this was just a false resurrection of his parents.

But after all, you can see the person in person and hear his or her voice, right?

How precious this is to our loved ones.

However, as Minato narrated, Naruto gradually understood the purpose of summoning his parents. There was no need for too many clear words. Just knowing that the caster was Tsunade and that she had summoned the First, Second, and Third Hokage together, one could see what the other person's intention was.

"So, Naruto, your mother and I mean that our family should stay away from this battle. No matter what the final result is, it has nothing to do with us. Of course, I will also give Menma some final advice. It would be best if it can end peacefully, but if not, Naruto, your mother really doesn't want to see the slaughter between you and your brother, especially when both of us know about it."

Minato said this in a very serious tone.

When Naruto heard his father's words, his expression froze and he fell into silence.

Minato looked at Naruto who went down silently, without any words to urge him. He just looked at Naruto quietly. Just as he said to Kushina, the two children in their family were both stubborn to the extreme.

It is not easy to change your decision.

If you want to persuade the two of them, you have to do it step by step. It is impossible to force them.

"Dad, do you know what Menma has done? Do you know what he will do next?"

Naruto raised his head and looked directly at Minato, and asked with the same serious expression.

"He killed Brother Kakashi and Grandpa Jiraiya. Most importantly, everything he did was to destroy the hard-earned peace in the Ninja World and to trample on the lives of others. Menma once told me that everything he did was for revenge, but more for peace. He said that as long as all the countries and villages were unified, true and lasting peace could be achieved. But I thought about it for a long, long time, but I still couldn't understand. Can peace obtained by ruthless killing be called peace? If everyone's country and village are destroyed, won't they all be resentful? Isn't this simply creating fear to scare everyone? Even if such peace is achieved, can it really last? Dad, you named me Naruto because you read Grandpa Jiraiya's novel. Perseverance, courage, and always believe that the dream of mutual understanding between people will be realized. This is what a person should have and the way to achieve true peace, right!? Now it is not a problem of Konoha, but a problem of peace in the entire Ninja World, Dad."

He didn't wait for Minato to answer.

Naruto paused for a moment before continuing.

When Minato heard Naruto's words, his eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

"Is this what Menma and you were talking about? Naruto."

"Well, when Menma captured me and imprisoned me in Hikari Village, I had a conversation with him, and that's what he said."

Naruto said as he nodded.

"Have you ever thought that this is something that is possible?"

Minato said seriously.

Unlike Jiraiya who has been completely assimilated into Myobokusan, Naruto is still very young and can be easily fooled.

Minato's thoughts and consciousness have always been mature and comprehensive.

The peace that Naruto said Menma wanted to achieve.

In Minato's opinion.

It's not completely impossible.

There will certainly be difficulties and uncertainties in this path, but it also illustrates the feasibility of this path.

Because unrealistic things are unable to see the difficulties and uncertainties, they are real fantasies and illusions.

Minato is no longer the Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village. He is just a simple father. Like Kushina, he only wants to see his children safe and sound and not fall into darkness.

Before, Minato was very worried that Menma would be blinded by hatred and that Naruto would be swept away by the emotions in the Hidden Leaf Village.

Life is alive.

Many times we have no control over our situation, not to mention that young children are more likely to experience emotional fluctuations and make wrong judgments.

Minato couldn't be sure whether the path Menma had chosen was the right one, or whether it could really be achieved.

But at least it is certain that Menma is not completely blinded by hatred.

In his heart, he has always had a path he wanted to take, the only difference is in direction and distance.

"How can it be possible? Dad, countless people have died. Won't the remaining people bear grudges? You should know what the situation is like in the Hidden Leaf Village right now? Everyone wants revenge. In such a situation, where can peace come from? Dad?"

Naruto shook his head like a rattle and said, with an expression of complete disapproval on his face.

Chapter 512: Feelings

Naruto, who has witnessed the harmfulness and horror of hatred with his own eyes, would never believe that so-called killing can bring peace. From Naruto's perspective, can people whose relatives and friends died in a war still forgive their living enemies?

Even Naruto himself was almost angered by his own brother. When he saw Jiraiya being killed by Menma, he couldn't control himself and wanted to attack Menma.

This is the power of resentment.

Naruto is not bragging on this point.

But even he couldn't control the anger in his heart, how could other ordinary people do it?

In just three years.

How many ninjas from the five major ninja villages have Menma and his Hikari Village killed? And they still want to bring peace to the ninja world?

Naruto really felt that his brother was crazy and lost in his own powerful strength.

This is the wrong approach.

Just like Uchiha Madara who was defeated by the first Hokage, he was so arrogant that he only believed in his own strength.

Naruto always felt that the path taken by the first Hokage, the path that his grandfather Jiraiya talked about, was the true path to peace. Especially when he came back to Myoboku Mountain this time and listened to the great toad sage's brief account of more than a thousand years ago, and the Six Paths Sage seemed to be walking the same path of peace, Naruto was 100% determined in his heart.

Seek mutual understanding between people.

The real peace is to establish a world where everyone can recognize and depend on each other.

The legendary Sage of Six Paths did just that. Doesn't that prove that this path is correct?

Naruto was so sure.

However, Naruto also forgot that, leaving aside the Six Paths Sage, the key to the so-called peaceful world created by the First Hokage was still based on his powerful strength. Without the power to threaten the entire ninja world and suppress everything, what would the First Hokage have to gain the recognition of the other four major ninja villages! ?

Is it because of Hashirama Senju's ridiculous sincerity and his almost stupid kneeling begging posture?

Stop being funny.

The other four first-generation Hokages might indeed be moved by Hashirama Senju's so-called sincerity, but that was because the one begging was the first-generation Hokage, who was known as the God of Ninja. If it were someone else, you can try it! ?

These four first-generation Kages will only look at it once more, even if they lose.

The power to defeat the world alone (Hashirama Senju) + reasonably distributed benefits (equal distribution of the tailed beasts), and finally Hashirama's so-called sincere attitude.

This brought about peace during that period.

Naruto never understood this point, and it should even be said that Hashirama Senju himself did not understand this point in the past. He probably still naively thought that he really moved the leaders of these hostile ninja villages with his sincerity.

At this point, Tobirama was actually very helpless at that time, but as a younger brother, whose strength was far inferior to his brother's, he could only obey his brother's arrangements and do what his brother wanted.

The Tobirama back then is now Minato.

It's not that Minato necessarily approves of Menma's actions, but he has to make a judgment.

Minato didn't believe in the kind of peace his youngest son was talking about.

That path has been proven to be a road to failure by the first Hokage.

As soon as Hashirama Senju died, the First Ninja World War broke out. To be more precise, when the news that Hashirama was critically ill and might die at any time spread, the Ninja World was already full of all kinds of weirdness.

The peace established by the first Hokage was short-lived and unrealistic. People understood each other? That would only happen if there was only one person left in the world.

Because even the closest relatives can turn against each other, let alone ordinary people at the beginning! ?

"That's why we should get to know each other better, right? Do you really want to watch your mother worry and even be sad? Naruto, do you want her to watch you two brothers kill each other? And, most importantly, can you really stop Menma, Naruto?"

Minato sighed softly and said with a slightly helpless look.

From what we have learned before.

Even though the Hidden Leaf Village used the Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon back the First and Second Generations, judging from their own situations, it can be inferred that the two of them seemed to possess power that was infinitely close to their peak period.

But can it be stopped for sure?

He single-handedly defeated Ōnoki and the combined forces of two nearly perfect tailed beasts, and defeated the coalition forces of the five major ninja villages. This is just Menma's strength.

What about the eight tailed beasts below?

What about the black monster born from the Box of Bliss that can defeat the two tailed beasts alone?!

And what about that young man from the mysterious Hyuga clan who is said to be just as strong and can defeat the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki? ?

Menma is not alone.

Although it is not possible to judge each other's strength very intuitively.

But Minato had a feeling that the First Hokage would most likely not be able to stop his eldest son.

It's too far in the future.

Minato knew very well that he had no way to grasp and control the situation. After all, they were dead. After this matter was over, they should return to where they came from. But at least for now, Minato had to stop his two children from killing each other. He didn't want to do that, and he didn't want to see his wife sad.

Moreover, Minato also believed that as long as everything was really settled and the root cause of the dispute between the brothers was gone, they could really sit down and have a good talk.

Minato felt that it was unrealistic for everyone to understand each other, but trust and understanding between brothers should be possible on a certain basis.

"I will definitely do it. No, I must do it."

Naruto clenched his hands tightly and spoke loudly.

"Speak directly and keep your word, this is my ninja way, Dad. This has nothing to do with how strong Menma is. This is just my determination. Didn't you just say that? Granny Tsunade has summoned both the First and Second Hokage, so there is still a chance of winning. Don't worry, I won't be the same as Menma. I just want to stop him."

Naruto still shook his head firmly and said.

Once you make up your mind, it is not easy to change it.

Especially someone like Naruto.

This has already been reflected vividly in the original novel, and in this life, he will only be more persistent than in the original novel.

"Naruto, then at least you should go see your mother first, and then we can sit down and talk as a family, right? This is also your mother's request, Naruto."

Looking at Naruto who was so stubborn.

Even though Minato had anticipated this at the beginning and had made some mental preparations, he still felt a headache at this moment.

How is he supposed to do this?

If it really doesn't work, then the only option is to resort to violence as the mother said to solve the problem. Even though Naruto seems to have mastered a very high level of Sage Mode now, Minato is still confident that he and Kushina can defeat Naruto together.

Minato also knows the Sage Mode, and the Flying Thunder God Technique. Kushina also has powerful sealing techniques, so it shouldn't be a problem for her to suppress her little son.

But this is the last resort.

"Can we sit down as a family and talk about this?"

Naruto was slightly startled.

After thinking for a short while, he nodded heavily.

"Then let's go, Naruto."

Seeing that Naruto was not really stubborn, Minato felt relieved in his heart. It would be best if he could take Naruto away first.

We’ll talk about the rest later.

It really doesn't work.

The only option then is to imprison Naruto first.

Minato thought secretly in his heart.

Following from that.

Minato took Naruto and flew in another direction of Myoboku Mountain, where there was a special spatial channel to leave Myoboku Mountain. The contractors who came to Myoboku Mountain using the reverse summoning technique would return to their original position once the technique was lifted.

It was not appropriate for Naruto to be in the village now.

It is best to leave directly through the passage.
