"Is that Naruto?"

Minato looked at Naruto with a smile.

Naruto stared in disbelief at the person who looked seven-tenths like him.

"You are... the Fourth Hokage?"

The Hokage robe and the large characters on the back of the other person clearly indicated their identity.

"Hmm? Looks like you already know me."

"The Fourth Hokage!!"

The Nine-Tails roared, trying to break free of the seal, but Minato had already relocked it immediately.

"It's too noisy here, this isn't a good place to talk, let's find somewhere else!"

After saying this, Minato snapped his fingers, and instantly the space where the two of them were transformed.

The two looked at each other in silence for a moment.

Minato greedily scanned Naruto from head to toe with his eyes.

He wasn't very tall, but he was very sunny and handsome. The clothes had faded a bit after washing, but the quality seemed pretty good.

"Naruto"

Water gate opening

"You are the Fourth Hokage? And also my father?"

Minato smiled and nodded gently.

Seeing the doting look in the other person's eyes, Naruto began to tremble uncontrollably.

Such eyes, such gaze

I want to die here!

From childhood to adulthood, he was only met with hateful, disgusted, and contemptuous gazes.

This is the first time I've seen love in someone's eyes! A profound love! A love that no one can compare to!

He had plenty of experience dealing with those hateful gazes.

But to be honest, he had absolutely no experience with that loving gaze!

Tears streamed down his face, but Naruto smiled; he smiled very happily.

However, his fists were clenched tightly, very tightly.

Chapter 50 Danzo's Coup, the Third Hokage's Abdication

Land of Fire, Konoha Village

Inside the Hokage Building

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado sat on either side, with Hiruzen Sarutobi in the middle.

Danzo stood between the three, his face so dark it seemed to drip water. His single left eye was fixed on Hiruzen Sarutobi, filled with rage, but hidden even deeper was a hint of relief.

Hiruzen Sarutobi felt extremely uncomfortable under his gaze. He put down his large pipe and slowly exhaled a breath of stale air.

"Danzo, what's wrong?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice carried a hint of doubt and unease. Looking at his longtime partner, who had always caused him so much trouble, a sense of worry welled up within him.

Upon hearing the Third Hokage's words, Danzo's lips curled into a slight, cold smile.

"Lord Tobirama! Look at yourself! This is the Hokage you chose!"

He cursed the second-generation leader inwardly, then tossed a scroll to the three of them.

"Hiruzen! How dare you ask what happened?"

Danzo's voice was hoarse and full of resentment.

"You call yourself Hokage? You've lost all the village's Jinchuriki and you don't even know it!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned as he picked up the scroll Danzo had tossed to him and began to examine it closely.

The screen displays a series of images, showing scenes of Team 7 in the Land of Waves.

"There are two Kakashis? No, that must be the enemy from a parallel universe that Jiraiya was talking about!"

"They've been captured?!"

"Wait! This is..."

The final image freezes on the scene where Nagato's five fingers are attached to the Eight Trigrams Seal on Naruto's abdomen.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's pupils contracted.

Danzo glanced at Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression and inwardly scoffed, though he was still quite pleased with his demeanor.

"I think you might not know this yet! One of them is Kakashi from a parallel universe, and the other is his former teammate from Minato's team—Obito, who is also from the Uchiha clan. According to reports from my spies in the Land of Waves, they saw this person using the Mangekyou Sharingan!"

"As for the person who tried to break the seal on the Jinchuriki, he looks exactly like the disciple Jiraiya once took in the Land of Rain. He should also be from a parallel world. Apart from his blood-red hair, which indicates that he comes from the Uzumaki clan, he most likely also possesses the Sage's Eyes!"

According to Danzo, Naruto doesn't have a name; he only has titles.

Jinchuuriki!

This is Naruto's real name!

"Where did you get these? Are they still in the Land of Waves?"

"Heh, as Hokage, you have no vigilance at all! This is a message passed on by the Root's intelligence department. You ordered them to go to the Land of Waves, didn't you?"

Danzo's tone was somewhat aggressive.

To be honest, it was also good luck. He had arranged for spies in two nearby countries to disguise themselves as ordinary citizens. Unexpectedly, this group from the parallel world, along with Kakashi and his group, were spotted by spies in the Land of Waves, and the spies even sent him a message.

Of course, the spies weren't passing on information about Kakashi's capture. They were merely relaying ordinary information; someone of that rank wouldn't possibly know Naruto's identity or the situation of Team 7.

He reported to him mainly these two events: Nagato descending from the sky and constructing a bridge across the sea, and Gato's death, which was suspected to be the work of Konoha ninjas.

Then I made a record of what those people looked like.

As luck would have it, I just happened to witness the scene where both the Jinchuriki and the seal were discovered.

"God help me too!"

Danzo was somewhat excited. The Third Hokage was getting old, and the Fifth Hokage had been unable to find a successor for a long time. Now that Danzo had made such a big mistake, if Danzo volunteered to capture the Jinchuriki, wouldn't the Hokage position be passed on to him?

We'll put some pressure on the daimyo then, and then discuss it with Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado.

If all else fails, the power of this eye must be restored.

The Hokage position is within reach!

Hiruzen Sarutobi had no idea what Danzo was thinking at that moment. He picked up his pipe again and took a deep drag.

"I did approve the mission to send them to the Land of Waves."

"But that was only a C-rank mission, and Kakashi was always with me."

Hiruzen Sarutobi was filled with complex emotions; his cloudy old face was expressionless, and no one could tell what he was thinking.

"A C-rank mission? Ha! Ever since Jiraiya sent the message, we've been on high alert for the entire village, yet you've still let them leave Konoha unattended?"

"Hiruzen! If the Nine-Tails is lost, you will be held responsible!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly made a decision, standing up and declaring, "I will immediately arrange for Jiraiya to protect Naruto, and Jiraiya will ensure his safe return to the village!"

In Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, the Eight Trigrams Seal on Naruto's body would definitely not be able to be broken in a short time, and there was still a chance to make amends!

"Arrange it? By the time you've finished arranging it, I'm afraid the Nine-Tails will already be someone else's!"

"Back when the Nine-Tails was wreaking havoc, I told you that I would take care of the Jinchuriki, but you just wouldn't agree!"

"No need to wait for your arrangements; I've already led the elite of the Roots on my way."

Hearing this, Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu were relieved and gave Danzo an approving look.

"Danzo! Thank you for your hard work! Please make sure you bring Kurama back to the village safely!"

Danzo nodded

"That's natural. As the root, I am Konoha's last line of defense. But there are some things I want to say in advance. Sometimes, if you sit in a position for too long and become numb, shouldn't you give the opportunity to someone more capable?"

Danzo turned around as he said this.

"Danzo, we have all witnessed your abilities over the years. I am old and no longer capable. When you return, I will certainly pass the Hokage position to someone more capable."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice slowly rose behind him; he naturally already knew what his best friend's goals and desires had always been.

With an imminent invasion from a parallel universe, Hiruzen Sarutobi is indeed feeling somewhat overwhelmed. Perhaps allowing the ruthless Danzo to take over would be better able to lead Konoha to maintain stability in this chaotic world.

Of course, a larger part of the reason is that disaster is coming!

I'm getting old now, and I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to solve any problems I encounter if I step forward now.

Rather than becoming a scapegoat, a sinner who causes Konoha immense damage and loss, it would be better to abdicate and hand over power to a more worthy successor as soon as possible.

"My old friend, I'm sorry, I've served in this position for so many years. Even if I haven't achieved anything great, I've certainly worked hard. That's enough. Now it's truly time for me to step down."

Danzo, however, harbored far more ulterior motives. Upon hearing Hiruzen Sarutobi's assurance, a barely perceptible smile appeared on his face.

I never expected Hiruzen Sarutobi to be so sensible! It's all been worth it for me to have taken on all the dirty and hard work all these years!

In that case, the position of Hokage is a done deal!

The thought of returning victorious and rightfully becoming the Fifth Hokage filled Danzo with excitement.

"Hiruzen, remember your words. I hope you won't go back on your word."

After saying this, Danzo's figure turned into a wisp of white smoke and disappeared.

It turns out that what was here was just a shadow clone of his!
