Master, please become the Hokage

Kakashi was stunned for a moment, then became excited.

"Jiraiya-sama!"

The legendary three ninjas are right in front of him!

"This little guy, why does he look a bit like..." Jiraiya stroked his chin, and a familiar face appeared in his mind.

"Kakashi is Mr. Sakumo's son. He is now under my command..."

Minato Namikaze introduced immediately.

"Haha..." Jiraiya laughed, "Minato, that's amazing..."

Has Mr. Sakumo's son become your student?

It seems that you have made great progress in recent years.

When Minato Namikaze said that he saved Kushina, was allowed to read the Book of Seals once, and finally learned the S-level Flying Thunder God.

Then it was Jiraiya's turn to be shocked.

"That jutsu of the Nidaime... it's really... amazing..."

There was a reason why Jiraiya was so shocked.

Because even the old man hasn't learned the Flying Thunder God technique.

This kind of talent is enough to prove that Minato is qualified to become Hokage.

"No wonder......"

Jiraiya shook his head continuously.

Before he returned to the village, he had heard of his disciple's nickname, Golden Flash.

I originally thought it was just fast speed, but I didn’t expect... it was actually Flying Thunder God.

"In that case, Minato, without further ado, you should go to Myoboku Mountain to learn fairy arts..."

I have learned Flying Thunder God.

Of course, magical arts must also be arranged.

Only in this way will he be qualified to compete with Mr. Sakumo for the position of Hokage.

Jiraiya, knowing that Minato's dream since childhood was to become Hokage, was very positive about his disciple's dream.

The war is over, and the next Hokage might be chosen someday.

So...it's time to work harder.

"Leave this to me, Kakashi."

Jiraiya stated that he would be responsible for teaching Kakashi the kung fu while Minato went to Myoboku Mountain.

"That's great~!" Kakashi snorted, his whole body bursting with excitement.

If the legendary three ninjas were guiding me, wouldn't I be extremely powerful?

The lack of confidence that had been caused by Sarutobi Ryo's reprimand had now completely disappeared.

Kakashi just felt that the path of Hokage was beckoning towards him.

"Minato-sensei is the fourth generation, then I am the fifth generation..."

Soon, Jiraiya left the summoning scroll of Myoboku Mountain and took Kakashi away.

Namikaze Minato unfolded the scroll and took a deep breath: "Then, it's time to go to Myoboku Mountain..."

......

Soon after.

Minato Namikaze, who was summoned to Mount Myōboku by the sages Fukasaku and Shima through reverse summoning, began to look around.

Myobokusan, Shikotori Forest, and Ryuchido are collectively known as the "Three Holy Places."

Anyone who is predestined can learn the "immortal arts".

"Teacher Jiraiya said that it took him a month to learn the celestial technique..."

"Well, Minato-chan, with your talent, about a week should be enough..."

Sennin Fukasaku and Sennin Shima nodded, very confident in Minato Namikaze's talent.

"But before that, come with us first. The master wants to see you..."

Fukasaku and Shima began to lead the way.

The Great Master refers to the actual ruler of Mount Myōboku…the ancient immortal, the Great Toad Immortal.

It is said that the Great Toad Sage is a creature from the Six Paths Sage era.

Their lifespan is more than 1000 years old.

The enormous amount of chakra allows him to foresee the future.

Minato Namikaze had also heard of the Great Toad Sage making predictions, such as... the "Son of Prophecy" that Jiraiya often mentioned.

Soon, Minato Namikaze arrived at the palace.

Here, he met the huge toad immortal.

"Master, we have brought Minato here." said Fukasaku Sennin.

Just when Shima Sage thought that the master would pretend to be crazy and stupid before talking about business.

The words of the Great Toad Immortal were beyond their expectations.

"Son of Prophecy...you are here..."

Fukasaku Sage and Shima Sage: "!"

The child of prophecy is the one who brings peace to the ninja world.

Little Jiraiya's disciple, is that the person?

Before, the Great Toad Immortal had not made it clear who the real son of prophecy was.

Little Jiraiya also searched everywhere for a while.

Now, it is stated so clearly. Is the ninja world going to encounter some changes?

Fukasaku Sennin and Shima Sennin, who have lived for 800 years, have witnessed the changes in the ninja world and countless events.

Their faces became visibly serious.

Then, the Great Toad Sage slowly opened his eyes: "Namikaze Minato, your mission has come... I have seen fighting, death, and rebirth... The ninja world will experience a violent upheaval..."

The Great Toad Sage continued talking to himself, and Namikaze Minato could only listen with his eyes wide open.

"It all started not long ago."

Not long ago?

Minato Namikaze immediately recalled the destruction of the Hidden Village in the Sky.

"That's right, it was at the time when the Hidden Sky Village was destroyed that many things changed..."

The big toad immortal looked up at the sky, and in the sky... white clouds were floating.

"The once clear future has become blurred and fragmented... I can only see intermittent images... Even I can no longer accurately judge all future events..."

The established trajectory was broken.

Many things may change.

"Master, the future... can it be changed?" Namikaze Minato raised his eyes and expressed his doubts.

It turns out that the big toad immortal predicted the child of destiny.

But now they say the future is unclear.

The Great Toad Immortal nodded and said, "Well, my fate is determined by me. When a force that is too good or too evil appears, the prophecy will not go in the predetermined direction..."

Fate cannot restrain people who are extremely good or extremely evil.

And it is precisely because of their participation that many things will be rewritten.

The Great Toad Sage: "In the new future I see, you will fight against that power..."

"That power... wants to destroy the ninja world?" Namikaze Minato suddenly stood up and asked anxiously.

"It is destruction."

The answer from the Great Toad Sage made Minato Namikaze, Fukasaku and Shima Sage feel a sinking feeling in their hearts.

“But it’s also a new life.”

Three people: "!"

The Great Toad Immortal: "The cycle of death and rebirth, this is how everything in the world works..."

"Master, I don't understand."

Minato Namikaze was a little confused.

What should I do if I am the child of prophecy?

"Namikaze Minato, if you long for a new world, you don't have to fight that power... But if you want to preserve the old world... then, fighting is your destiny, and you are the child of prophecy."

The Great Toad Sage raised his finger and pointed at Minato Namikaze.

"The choice... is mine?"

Minato Namikaze's eyes were confused.

"If I don't fight, will a new child of destiny appear?"

"That's right." The Great Toad Immortal lowered his finger and nodded. "Time will choose the destined one. If you sit back and watch everything happen, others will come to fight that power, and a new child of destiny will emerge."

After hearing these words, Minato Namikaze fell into deep thought.

Zhima Sennin was the first to lose patience and asked, "Master, according to your prophecy, that power will destroy the old world and create a new one. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?"

“Good or bad is often determined by one’s stance.”

The tone of the Great Toad Immortal became increasingly profound.

"When humans eat animals, they are evil to the animals. On the other hand, people think eating animals is natural. Good and evil...are defined by one's perspective..."

Shima Sennin couldn't help but frowned: "Can you explain it in a way that Minato can understand better?"

"..."

The big toad immortal was silent.

Then he spoke again.

"Well, Namikaze Minato, I will tell you the original predetermined future. After that, you can think about it and make a decision."

The eyes of the Great Toad Immortal suddenly widened.

The extremely huge chakra directly pulled Minato Namikaze into the future trajectory it saw.

“This is the original trajectory…”

Nouns, characters, and events flashed quickly before Minato Namikaze's eyes, like a movie.

Seeing these visions is like experiencing the subsequent life yourself.

"In the original future... the Yondaime Hokage... married Kushina... had a child... Uzumaki Naruto..."

"The future now... a shattered, blurry vision... the destruction of the old world... a deviation from its trajectory..."

"Well!"

Minato Namikaze's eyes were spinning, and the overwhelming amount of information made him feel shaky.

Fortunately, the pain didn't last long.

When the Great Toad Sage stopped, Minato Namikaze immediately knelt on one knee and gasped heavily.
