Konoha: Who's the good guy?

Most people in the ninja world today don't have a clear idea of ​​how strong Madara Uchiha was.

After all, the Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi, drastically revised the Ninja Academy's textbooks to ensure his own stability, thus distorting the history of the ninja world.

He even abandoned all pretense of dignity, calling himself the strongest Hokage.

Even someone like Minato Namikaze, who had heard Kei Yamanaka recount the true history, actually had a very limited understanding of it.

Madara Uchiha!

That's a ruthless person in his Mangekyou Sharingan state, capable of single-handedly taking down the Five Kage and the Allied Shinobi Forces!

If it weren't for the old man of the Six Paths secretly providing support from behind the scenes...

Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha, like cockroaches that can't be killed, did sit-ups repeatedly.

And Black Zetsu, at a crucial moment, betrayed someone from behind.

Madara Uchiha was definitely the ultimate winner.

Given Yamanaka Kei and Namikaze Minato's small stature, facing Uchiha Madara head-on at this stage, even in his twilight years, would basically be like handing him a free meal.

"Just thinking about it makes me realize how damn dangerous this world is. First there was Madara Uchiha, then the Otsutsuki clan. It's just too much..."

Shan Zhongjing muttered a curse inwardly.

If it weren't for the system he had, his strength would have been increasing rapidly.

He really wanted to find a secluded mountain forest to set up shop!

He was lost in thought.

A sudden spatial fluctuation emanated from Minato Namikaze, who was standing beside Yamanaka Kei.

"Huh? Mount Myōboku is performing a reverse summoning technique. I'll go check it out."

Minato Namikaze sensed the summoning of the Reverse Summoning Technique.

After stabbing a Flying Thunder God kunai into the ship's side, he disappeared into a huge cloud of chakra smoke.

According to the rules of psychic arts.

Once the summoning spell is lifted, the summoned person will return to the spatial coordinates at the time of their summoning.

Without the Flying Thunder God Technique, there would be no guidance.

By the time he returns from Mount Myoboku, this three-masted sailing ship, which is quite fast, will probably have long since disappeared.

Minato Namikaze's journey to Mount Myōboku was not long.

It only took less than twenty minutes.

He then used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to the three-masted sailing ship.

Shan Zhongjing still sunbathed and enjoyed the sea breeze on the deck.

Seeing Minato Namikaze return from Mount Myōboku with a strange expression on his face, he asked in confusion.

"What's wrong with that expression?"

"A notice was issued in the village, which basically said that Uzumaki Village has always been a staunch ally of Konoha. In recent years, due to certain reasons, Konoha was unable to lend a helping hand in the face of the Uzumaki clan's plight. The notice called on Konoha ninjas to do their utmost to help the Uzumaki clan members when they encounter them outside the village..."

Minato Namikaze carefully crafted his words, briefly recounting the news he had heard from the toad.

After hearing this, Yamanaka's expression was also very strange.

They now fully understood why Minato Namikaze had that expression earlier.

In summary...

The expressions on their faces actually conveyed the same meaning.

Why did you go early?

The Land of Whirlpools has been destroyed for many years, and the Whirlpool clan has been wiped out, with only a few people left.

Now you suddenly remember they're allies?

"It seems the Third Generation is preparing to recruit some members of the Uzumaki clan."

Yamanaka Kei immediately saw the purpose behind the announcement.

The Uzumaki clan, huh.

The only things that the village's cunning old foxes would ever want are their own bloodline and sealing techniques.

Moreover, this kind of thing that suddenly appears and has never happened in the original work.

He could guess with his toes that it was because of the rumors circulating in the village about his relationship with Kushina.

Worried about problems with the Jinchūriki?

Or did they take precautions against the mountain tribe?

Or perhaps both?

"Probably. It seems Kushina will soon have clan members settling in Konoha."

Minato Namikaze smiled and nodded, feeling happy for Kushina.

Konoha is one of the Five Great Ninja Villages.

The living conditions in the village are much better than those chaotic small countries outside.

If the Uzumaki clan could come to Konoha, they would likely be able to survive and carry on their legacy.

"Don't be too optimistic. The Uzumaki clan might still hold a grudge against Konoha."

Shan Zhongjing curled his lip.

In his mind, however, he was communicating with the system, wanting to ask if there was any reward for the butterfly effect he had caused.

This could be considered as influencing and changing the main storyline, right?

Hey, system!

What about the reward?

A dog? A dog system?

wipe!

Looking at the system, which hadn't made a single move for a long time.

Kei Yamanaka frowned and turned to look at Minato Namikaze beside him.

"Minato! Do you want a wife or not?!"

"???"

Minato Namikaze looked at his best friend with a puzzled expression.

"Long, flowing red hair, exquisitely sculpted features, a sexy and alluring figure, and a gentle, tender personality! Want her?"

Yamanaka grabbed Shuimen by the neck.

He described in detail the appearance of the girl from the Whirlpool Clan in his memory.

"As long as it's not the kind of punch that would make me cry for a long time, maybe, possibly, probably, I'd want it too?"

A smile spread across Minato Namikaze's face.

Honestly.

He did think red hair was beautiful.

That color always made him feel boundless enthusiasm and vitality.

Back in the ninja academy.

If Yamanaka Kei hadn't acted so quickly, he might have actually tried to pursue Kushina.

"Wait, I'll relay those words to Kushina."

Yamanaka Kei became even more determined to bring that girl and Minato together.

Firstly, it alters the trajectory of Shuimen's life, earning him system rewards.

Two.

Kushina is his!

We need to get rid of Minato as soon as possible, otherwise he'll be a nuisance!

"Hey, I clearly just repeated what you said, okay? If Kushina was going to hit someone, shouldn't she be hitting you?!"

Minato Namikaze argued his case forcefully.

"She couldn't bear to hit me, so..."

"You'll lose me as a friend if you keep doing this, really!"

"Hahaha~"

The two laughed and joked around for a while.

The scenery in the mountains directly led the captain to change course, changing the destination to the Spirit Island of the Sea Kingdom!

When ninjas go out on missions, anything can happen.

I'll just go back a few days later.

No one said anything more.

The Land of the Sea is located in the northern part of the Land of Water's sea area and the southern part of the Land of Lightning's sea area.

Like the Land of Grass, the Land of Bears, and the Land of Rain, it is a small country sandwiched between two major powers, serving as a buffer against war.

While the Island of Spirit Summoning is said to be the territory of the Land of the Sea, it is actually controlled by the Hidden Mist Village!

In the original story, this island was favored by many ninjas because it was home to a large number of powerful creatures that could be used as summoning beasts.

A research institute was also established on the island to study, breed, and improve spirit beasts.

Yamanaka Kei had learned this when he read the memories of that Hidden Mist ninja.

Most of the summoned beasts they faced came from there.

I just didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

Now, let's talk about the Uzumaki clan.

Yamanaka Kei recalled the Uzumaki clan members with names and surnames from the original work.

Naturally, I thought of the girl who stayed on the Island of Spirits, but ultimately died because of the so-called "Ultimate Spirit Beast".

The original memories, plus the information in the minds of the Hidden Mist ninja.

The girl named Honoka Uzumaki is very likely still alive and not much older than them!

Is it better to become Minato's wife than to die in the jaws of beasts for nothing?

"Damn, I'm a genius!"

In the mountain scene, the little figure in the mind had his hands on his hips, looking extremely smug.
