I was broadcast live while taking the Chunin Exam!

Moreover... what we know now is that... Naruto's future isn't going very well.

Lack of fatherly love.

what.

Regardless of which one it is, Minato, who is still a virgin, feels immense pressure.

"Anyway..."

"Find Naruto first!"

Despite never having been a father, Minato is now behaving like one.

Guided by Minato, Kitahara Kaede left the courtyard with him.

·······

The buildings stand tall and are quite luxurious.

This is the Loulan Kingdom.

Loulan was called a kingdom, but it was actually a bustling city.

The city's total population is 1.

"But this was its heyday."

"And now the population is only about 4000."

Minato said while standing next to Kitahara Kaede.

"Why is the population declining so rapidly?" Kitahara Kaede asked. "Oh, no need to explain, I understand."

Kitahara Kaede looked ahead.

They had left the courtyard and come to the main street, standing in a secluded spot on a street corner.

From here, you can see that there are problems with the pedestrians on the street.

Although they were dressed up and made to look presentable, they were clearly just puppets.

"The city's population has been replaced by puppets."

"Centipede came here 6 years ago and then killed the queen."

"Then he adopted the alias An Lushan and, by attaching himself to the young queen, Sara, became a minister."

"During the reign of the previous queen, the Loulan Kingdom also researched the use of dragon veins and puppetry in combination."

"But it wasn't like this back then. During the time when Centipede was in power, he kept making puppets and then replacing the people in the city with the puppets to confuse the public."

"And now, there are not many people left in the city."

"Those who were replaced seemed to have been driven to work making new puppets."

"I don't know exactly where it's being driven," Minato shared.

"When did you arrive here?" Kitahara Kaede asked.

“About a month ago,” Minato said. “And the members he brought…”

"Yes, I brought three teammates."

"what……"

"One of them has arrived!"

Minato suddenly raised his right hand, and then a small figure ran towards the ninjas.

It appeared in front of the two of them in no time.

Upon seeing Kitahara Kaede's unfamiliar face, the small figure seemed somewhat wary, but he turned his gaze to Minato, as if waiting for Minato's command.

The small figure was dressed in a black bodysuit, had a head of silver hair, and wore a mask that covered half of her face.

[Minato Namikaze]: This kid looks familiar.

[Young Obito]: ...

[Nohara Rin]: Teacher is so mean.

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: What do you mean by familiar or not? This is just me when I was a kid!

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: And this stern face... seems to be from after I became a genin.

[Minato Namikaze]: It seems to be like this.

"Yo." But when he saw Kakashi appear as a child, Kitahara Kaede pressed down on little Kakashi's head.

"..."? ? ?

"???" Kakashi.

"Kakashi-sensei is really young," Kitahara Kaede said. "Even though you've never bullied me, that grumpy face of yours really makes me want to tease you a bit!"

"..." Kakashi!

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: Wow, so Kitahara Kaede has always had this kind of thought in 3.6!

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: He's terrifying!

[Tobirama Senju]: This is Kakashi when he was a kid. I'd like to tease him a bit too.

[Big Pillar Silly]: So cute!

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: Hey!

"Kakashi-sensei..."

"I've received some subtle information," Minato remarked 20 years ago.

because.

He was Kakashi's teacher, and Kitahara Kaede was Kakashi's student...

what.

So, does that mean Kitahara Kaede should also call him "teacher"?

But that probably won't work.

After all, Kitahara-kun is the fifth generation.

and……

Minato felt that... the future Naruto lacked fatherly love, and then... Kitahara-kun brought Naruto back... so he was the kindest person to the Namikaze family.

Chapter 179 Naruto, your father is among these people! (Please auto-play and subscribe to the full chapter!)

Minato reported on his team's situation, including himself, two teammates, and Kakashi, who was dressed in a black bodysuit.

The Kakashi here is similar to the original story; he's a genius who graduated early, but... because of his father's death, he has no interest in things like forming teams.

Even when following orders and carrying out missions with other squads, he... chose the mission over his teammates.

In other words, it means not caring whether teammates live or die.

Then it just means... my mission is more important, my teammates. Where would I find teammates?

Isn't it normal for a teammate to die while doing a mission?

However, this was met with strong opposition from his teammates, and so... no one wanted to team up with him anymore.

Then the Third Hokage summoned Minato and asked him to lead Kakashi.

At this time, Minato did not yet have a formal command of the Minato Squad.

So it's just a matter of managing Xiaoka13 Xi and getting to know him a little beforehand.

It can also be seen that Kakashi had a particularly deep teacher-student relationship with Minato.

So now he'll come out to do missions, and Kakashi is just a little robot with no emotions who carries out missions.

"Well--"

stare.

But when they arrived at the corner, this was where Minato and the others were temporarily staying.

However, although Kakashi stayed quietly in a corner, he stared at Kitahara Kaede with a persistent, vigilant, and slightly warning gaze.

Clearly, he was still wary of Kitahara Kaede's previous teasing of him.

To put it simply, it's about holding a grudge.

Kakashi still has feelings.

after all.

Kakashi is only about 8 years old right now, so he can't be emotionless yet.

Moreover, he is currently only experiencing his father's death, and has not yet experienced Obito's death or killed Rin with his own hands. He has also not yet received news of the passing of his master and mistress.

So Kakashi hasn't experienced much yet.

More suffering was yet to come upon him.

Kitahara Kaede stared at Kakashi.

"……？？？"

Kakashi was baffled.

He found himself to be... momentarily pitied by Kitahara Kaede.

·······

[Observing Kitahara Kaede? (^_-) Small Group]

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: I feel like I've found a reason.

[Big Pillar Silly]: What's the reason?

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: Since I met Kitahara Kaede so early, and then I was bullied by him.

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: So, is it because he's been a psychological shadow for me since childhood that I often feel inexplicably compelled to follow his ideas when I encounter him? And these were my feelings when I first led Team 7.

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: So it's not that I'm a coward, but that I subconsciously accepted that he would bully me.

[Big Pillar Silly]: According to the little witch Shiwan, even if Kokihara Kaede and the others time-traveled, the future history will not change. Therefore, Kakashi, you should lose this part of your memory.

[Minato Namikaze]: Hmm... I think the person who came up with this memory erasure thing is me from 20 years ago.

[Minato Namikaze]: So as long as Kitahara-kun devours the dragon vein, you will all forget all of this.

[Minato Namikaze]: Even with amnesia, Kakashi, you still have some obedience to Kitahara-kun. That's because of the feelings from your past body.

【Tobirama Senju】: So you mean subtle influence?

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: Very likely.

Of course, Kakashi would never admit that he was a coward from the start.

[Young Obito]: ...

It seems that Kitahara Kaede's return to 20 years ago was not to Konoha, but only to Loulan. Therefore, he will not be able to see Rin through Kitahara Kaede's eyes.

Obito felt that there was no need to pay too much attention to it.

[Rin Nohara]: But Kakashi was so cute when he was little.

[Sixth Hokage - Kakashi]: Uh...

[Young Obito]: ...

Ok.

Obito thought he should take another look.

Although he disliked Kakashi, feeling that this guy was like Minato, the old 147th Division, famous but... useless when it came to actually needing to be used.

So he looked at them with disdain.

But... now that Lin is thinking this way...

Young Obito didn't think he was uglier than Kakashi when he was a child.
