Naruto: Learn the Substitution Jutsu and use it to create Star Platinum?

"So...so strong."

On the ground, Naruto and Yamato's mouths slowly opened wide.

"Oh, am I late?"

A flash of light appeared, and Minato gently laid Sarah aside to rest.

With the return of the water gate, the energy on the tower weakened until it disappeared and ceased to be supplied.

"Has it been successfully sealed, Minato-kun?"

"Ah, it worked."

Minato smiled and nodded.

Then, looking at Lin Yi, who had transformed into a storm, they were slightly taken aback.

"That guy really angered Lin Yi."

Naruto, seeing the puppet shrinking even smaller, knew he was no longer needed and retreated with Yamato.

"Why is Brother Lin Yi so angry...?"

Naruto discovered that Lin Yi was quite brutal in his treatment of puppets, basically cutting them into pieces. If it weren't for the Dragon Vein, it would probably take half a year to piece together those pieces into a human-like shape.

"Because my senior brother's mother died as a puppeteer."

Kakashi spoke with a kiss, and it wasn't just Lin Yi's mother who spoke; his own mother was also a mother.

He made a fist.

"That's probably why he's so angry when he sees Centipede jumping around in front of him."

Kakashi turned his gaze to Lin Yi.

At this point, the centipede had been cut down to its core, leaving only its outer shell.

Lin Yi gently pulled it out and patted its chubby cheek.

"Not so powerful anymore, Your Highness An Lushan?"

"No...no, I'm just a nobody, hehe, a nobody."

Centipede's face was full of wrinkles as he smiled obsequiously.

Lin Yi also smiled, sheathed his twin swords, and the Sun Blade and One Slash floating behind him also returned to their sheaths.

"Thank you, sir, thank you..."

"Don't worry."

Lin Yi interrupted Baizu's words, then gently tossed him up.

Blame it on you being the first puppeteer I've ever met.

Just as the centipede was beginning to feel weightless, it felt itself being grabbed by a strong arm.

Where he couldn't see, a hint of mockery flashed in Platinum Star's cold eyes.

He shook his arm.

Centipede's sense of foreboding grew stronger.

next moment.

"Ora ora ora ora ora ora..."

The massive fist shadows rained down on Centipede's face.

Under the precise control of Platinum Star A, the centipede was injured but did not die, and its already fat face was now swollen like a pig's head.

ten minutes later.

Minato looked at Centipede on the ground, whose face was swollen to almost the thickness of its belly, and his lips twitched slightly.

Naruto and Yamato glanced at Lin Yi with lingering fear.

Fortunately, they proved themselves to be teammates.

Otherwise, they might be the ones with pig heads now.

After calming down, Dahe took out his kunai and prepared to deal with the centipede and break the spell.

"Wait a moment, Yamato Jonin."

Yamato looked at Lin Yi with confusion, not understanding why the other party was stopping him.

Are we going to keep beating them?

Lin Yi gave Daihe a gesture that it would be over in a few minutes and then called out to Minato.

"Minato, come here, come here."

After the two of them came to a separate place and Water Gate set up a soundproof barrier, Lin Yi asked seriously.

"How to do?"

"What do you mean?"

Minato scratched his head.

Lin Yi interrupted him impatiently, "Don't play dumb. Naruto is your and Kushina's son, right? Yellow hair, surname Uzumaki, Rasengan, and most importantly... he has the Nine-Tails inside him."

During the battle, Naruto only released a trace of his chakra, but Lin Yi, who had carefully studied the Nine-Tails' chakra, immediately noticed it.

Aren't you going to tell him?

Minato fell silent.

Azure eyes silently watched Naruto, who was still curiously observing the two of them.

"No... I think it's better to tell him since he doesn't know me. It would only cause him more trouble."

Chapter 45 Obito Wants to Save the World

Naruto Uzumaki seemed to sense something as well, and bared his teeth at the two people inside the barrier.

Shuimen smiled and nodded.

It's true that Naruto Uzumaki is his child. Putting aside what Lin Yi said, the most crucial point is that when he got close to Naruto, he felt his own chakra.

But similarly, regardless of whether it's a parallel universe or not, Naruto is his future child.

The current situation is that they know their future selves have become the fourth generation, but their children do not recognize them.

There is only one possibility: a huge change occurred in Konoha, and he, Kushina, and even those closely related to him all died before Naruto could remember.

After all, if Kushina were still alive, she would not have sealed the Nine-Tails inside the child, nor would she have kept his identity as her father a secret.

Minato didn't want to speculate too much about what might happen in the future.

If it is the parallel world that Lin Yi mentioned, then treating the other person's present as one's own future will obviously cause problems.

If it weren't a parallel world, the consequences of manipulating time would be far more severe, and Minato wouldn't want to try it.

All he knew was that if they recognized each other now, Naruto would only be more heartbroken after returning to his own timeline.

They are father and son from different time periods, destined not to stay together for long.

Naruto, who had no parents by his side, may have gotten used to that kind of life. Minato knew that what was more painful than being in darkness all the time was to fall into darkness again after gaining light.

“That’s definitely your style.” Lin Yi stroked his chin, understanding why Minato did what he did.

"But how do you know he'll never know who his parents are?"

Minato was stunned.

"What do you think of that kid's current strength?"

"Even without relying on the tailed beast transformation, just in terms of brute force, it is not something that an ordinary Jonin can handle."

Naruto himself possessed an enormous amount of chakra, something Lin Yi greatly envied.

Based on this alone, along with the Multiple Shadow Clone Technique and Rasengan, it can be said that the numerical values ​​alone are enough to overwhelm most Jonin.

“That’s right. Naruto already has such strength at this age. With his strength and his status as a Jinchuriki, do you think Minato can keep it from him forever? He will eventually find out who his parents are.”

Minato fell silent.

"At that time, he will really regret that he didn't recognize his family during his only chance to meet them in his life."

Lin Yi patted Shuimen on the shoulder.

"Time travel is such an incredible thing, and it just so happens that you two, father and son, have met. This may be the arrangement of fate."

Seeing that Minato was still struggling with his decision, Lin Yi went back first.

"Yamato Jonin, Minato and I just had a discussion. Do you and Naruto have anything else important to discuss?"

Naruto and Yamato exchanged a glance.

"I don't think so..."

Yamato thought for a moment, then replied with slight hesitation, "Is there something you need, Jonin Lin Yi?"

Lin Yi shook his head and pointed to the pig's head on the ground.

"According to you, this guy only entered the spell a few seconds longer than you, but he arrived in this world six years earlier than you."

Naruto scratched his head, not understanding what Lin Yi meant.

Yamato's eyes lit up slightly. "What does Jonin Lin Yi mean?"

"Hmm." Lin Yi nodded. "Whether it's due to the spell, the space-time continuum, or some other reason."

In short, the flow rates in the two timelines should be different, so if you don't have anything urgent to attend to, you can take this opportunity to cultivate yourselves for a while.

This was the reason Lin Yi came up with to let Minato and Naruto stay longer.

But it's not just made up. At least for Yamato and Naruto, if they trained here for a while, they would return to the time when they had just traveled through time.

That period of time was essentially free money.

"To avoid any unforeseen circumstances, let's book for a week first."

Yamato and Naruto exchanged a glance and nodded.

Not only could they potentially earn a week for free, but they would also have powerful sparring partners like Lin Yi and the Fourth Hokage. Such an opportunity is rare for ordinary people, and only a fool would disagree.
