Naruto: The Information Broker from the Uchiha Clan

(O!O)!

Sakura's inner personality instantly exploded, but Karin grabbed her and said, "Don't be angry, don't be angry. Didn't you just say he didn't mean it?"

Sakura struggled and threw a punch: "Let me go! Today I'm going to show him what beauty and ugliness really mean!"

"Sasuke and Brother Yun have arrived."

???

With a helpless expression, Shikamaru calmed down the furious Sakura with just one sentence.

Her explosive expression instantly transformed back into the demure lady she had just been.

Ya nudged Shikamaru: "You're so smart, you can appease two women with just one sentence."

As she spoke, Ya glanced at Ino, who was fixing her makeup for the ninth time beside her: "No, there are three women, terrifying women."

Just as Shikamaru was about to say something, a crimson figure shot straight at the top of his head.

But Shikamaru dared not resist this person at all.

Shikamaru had already anticipated this day ever since he learned that his mentor, Jonin, was Izumi Uchiha.

"Shikamaru, you're still so unmotivated! Wake up, let's have a couple of drinks later."

Shikamaru frowned: "I can't drink alcohol yet, and Aunt Kushina won't give me any."

Little Nine-Tailed Fox pouted: "It's not like we haven't tried it before, it's boring."

With that, he slid down and ran to Naruto.

At the kitchen doorway, Hinata hesitated for a long time before deciding not to lie to Aunt Kushina, so she whispered, "These... seem to be all things Naruto-kun likes to eat. As for me, I'm fine with anything."

???

Kushina paused for a moment, then looked up at Naruto and they exchanged a glance.

Naruto nudged Sasuke with his arm: "I feel a murderous glint in my mom's eyes."

Sasuke rolled his eyes.

Murderous intent? It's more likely anger. Naruto must have angered Aunt Kushina again; I need to stay away from him.

After handing the gift to Naruto, Yun sat down on the sofa, her gaze sweeping over the lively scene in the room.

Minato and Kushina survived; if this were a scene from their memories, it would probably be what they longed for most...

"Brother Yun... Brother Yun."

Yun turned to look at Ino: "I heard from Izumi that you've started learning the secret technique of teamwork. How's it going? The new generation of Ino-Shika-Cho should be cooperating smoothly, right?"

Ino nodded vigorously: "Yes, yes, Izumi-sensei has given us very serious guidance. And we also carried out our first C-rank mission a while ago. I... I will keep working hard!"

Yun smiled and reached out to ruffle Ino's blond hair: "Not bad, keep it up."

The simple action brought a blush to Ino's face that was almost as bright as Hinata's.

After Yun left to find Shikamaru, she was still murmuring to herself, "Hair...he ruffled my hair...confessed...successfully...married...child..."

Ino, who was lost in thought, muttered to herself, when a head peeked out from behind her.

Sai smiled and said seriously, "The book 'A Thousand Explanations of Relationships' has it. Ruffling hair is more of an adult's way of encouraging a child, and it shouldn't have anything to do with marriage, right?"

???

The blunt statement shattered Ino's illusions, while Sakura, who was keeping a close eye on Sai to prevent her teammates from being killed, sat down next to him.

Sakura reached out and pushed Sai's face away, then took Ino's hand and comforted her, "Don't listen to his nonsense. At least it's a visible improvement, isn't it? Brother Yun is only five years older than us, there's no generation gap between us."

Sai, who had been lurking like a ghost, spoke up again: "As far as I know, Brother Yun, the Hokage, and Lord Shikaku all communicate using informal language..."

"Among the previous generation of Ino-Shika-Cho, Shikaku-senpai and Ino's father, Inoichi-senpai, were of the same generation, right?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Sakura, who was prepared, hugged Ino's waist.

However, Ino did not get angry. Instead, she asked Sakura, "I specifically asked my mother for advice today, and my light makeup didn't smudge, did it?"

Startled by the question, Sakura shook her head: "Ino... are you alright?"

Ino smiled and replied, "What could possibly happen to me? But after the birthday party ends, your teammates might end up dead in the street, right?"

Uh!

Sakura's calm and nonchalant tone made her immediately withdraw her hand.

A chill ran from the soles of my feet straight up to my heart.

Ino is definitely furious!

Sai... good luck to you.

……

The door opened, and Minato, who had returned earlier, raised his hand and said, "Oh? It's quite lively, Naruto. Welcome everyone!"

"Lord Hokage." ×N

Minato's arrival calmed the kids down considerably; compared to Yun, they still held the position of Hokage in greater awe.

The lively birthday party ended quickly, and the kids had finished eating their cake.

The Nine-Tails is taunting Naruto's inner half with a wine bottle, Hinata is asking Kushina for cooking advice, and Ino and Sakura are whispering to each other...

Sai, with a smile on his face, was disliked by everyone, including Tone and...

This... is Shino, right?

The two oil-loving women were ignored by everyone and could only huddle together for warmth.

Shikamaru, meanwhile, watched Choji eat snacks with a bored expression. No one seemed to find it strange that he could still eat snacks right after a meal.

"It's trading day again."

Minato sighed as he spoke.

Yun, who was sitting to the side, leaned back on the sofa: "We are in the open, and the Akatsuki are in the shadows. Without a surprise attack, we cannot stop the transaction from Uzumaki Sora."

"And... even if we knew where they were, we might not be able to stop them. After all, we knew nothing about the opening of that alternate dimension."

After a moment of silence, Minato's gaze turned to the kitchen.

There were two figures, one large and one small. Kushina was gently teaching Hinata step by step.

It's been a long time since I've seen Kushina so gentle. It seems she's quite satisfied with her future daughter-in-law...

Putting aside his worries, this scene brought a smile to Minato's face.

Uchiha Yun, witnessing all this, was also filled with emotion, which reminded him of the world of the Limited Tsukuyomi.

If the Fourth Hokage in there hadn't died, things might be like this now, right?

"Naruto and Hinata's initial connection was facilitated by Uzumaki Sora. Perhaps there were factors related to the predetermined future, or maybe even blood ties?"

Minato glanced at Naruto as he spoke: "With the pure Byakugan and the chakra of the Otsutsuki clan, one can awaken the ultimate power of the Byakugan."

"If the ultimate power of the Byakugan is combined with Ashura's chakra, will an even stronger power emerge? Perhaps this is one of Uzumaki Sora's goals?"

Uchiha Yun was stunned.

The reason why Ku's original deal with Naruto resulted in Hinata being the answer was partly due to his initial resentment.

Secondly... it's actually pretty much the same as what Minato guessed.

It's uncertain whether Boruto will feature this, but the premise of the Otsutsuki clan being aliens is inevitable. Therefore, it's necessary to have a backup plan before the Otsutsuki clan arrives.

And this backup plan is the bloodline that Naruto and Hinata will have in the future.

Regardless of whether he is Boruto or not, there is another possibility: the possibility of confronting the core strength of the Otsutsuki clan.

"You're thinking a bit too far ahead."

After replying, Yun said, "If you want to be a grandfather, it will be at least six or seven years before you can, right? It's a bit too early to think about things at that time."

Minato smiled helplessly: "It is indeed a bit early. Oh well, there's no point in thinking about it so much. I definitely won't be Hokage in at least six or seven years. By then, all the problems will be yours, the Fifth Hokage, to worry about. What does it have to do with me?"

Yun nudged Minato with his arm: "You're dreaming. With the Flying Thunder God's mobility, you'll have to be my firefighter for at least a few more years."

"Retiring at such a young age to lie around and wait to die? Can you really do that?"

Minato shook his head: "That's why sometimes I envy the Third Hokage... After losing all his power, he had to retire, and he was able to retire in peace."

……

It was late at night.

Uchiha Yun, who had already returned home, sat on his bed, waiting for the time to come.

As for the candidates for this deal, they have already been decided long ago.

The intelligence exchange has been successfully launched.
