Hokage: Ryo’s Path - Chapter 200

[Chapter 200 Watergate’s Team]

Yamanaka Ryo put Xiaolin on the ground, and Xiaolin peeked at Minato Minato with some curiosity.

Xiaolin also saw just how fast Namifeng Minato’s speed was. It was the first time Xiaolin saw someone who surpassed Yamanaka Yuan in speed, and he couldn’t help but be a little curious.

“Xiao Lin, come to my sister!” Jiu Xin Nai showed no resistance to Xiao Lin, and opened her arms to signal Xiao Lin to her arms.

During the time in the Land of Wind, Xiaolin and Jiuxinai were already very familiar with each other. So hearing Kushina’s call, Xiaolin jumped directly into Kushina’s arms with his hind legs.

Xiaolin twisted and twisted in Jiu Xin Nai’s arms, finding a comfortable position, and at the same time her small paws were still resting on Jiu Xin Nai’s chest.

Seeing this, Minato Namikaze’s face stiffened and he lowered his voice and asked Yamanaka Ryo, “Ryo, what is the gender of your cat?”

“Little Lin is a girl, why did you suddenly ask this, Minato-san?” Yamanaka Yuan didn’t pay attention to where Xiaolin’s claws were placed, and was a little confused about the issue of Minato Minato.

Minato Namikaze was relieved to hear Yamanaka Ryo’s answer, and then said calmly, “Because this cat looks cute, I want to know her gender.”

“Cute? Minato-san, this time, you are confused by your appearance!” Yamanaka Ryo said with a smile.

“Confused by appearances? What do you mean?” Minato Namikaze looked back at Xiaolin, who was harmless to humans and animals, and asked a little puzzled.

Although Namikaze Minato is not a perceptive ninja, he is also very sensitive to chakra compared to ordinary ninjas.

Coupled with years of fighting, Minato Namikaze is particularly sensitive to threats.

From Xiaolin’s body, Wave Wind Minato can only feel the faint chakra fluctuations, and there is no threat at all.

“Xiao Lin, show it to Big Brother Minato!” Yamanaka Ryo didn’t answer directly, and turned to Xiao Lin.

Xiaolin nodded, jumped out of Jiuxinai’s arms, and ran into the woods dozens of meters away.

“Let’s start Xiaolin!” Saying that, Yamanaka Ryo untied the seal, and Xiaolin’s chakra instantly returned to her own body.

In the blink of an eye, a giant beast the size of a hill appeared out of thin air.

Namikaze Minato looked at the behemoth in front of him and was shocked: “Difficult… Could it be that the cat was the creature that Kenichi Hyuga discovered that it was suspected of being a tailed beast?”

Yamanaka Ryo nodded and said, “The ninja of the Hinata clan should see Xiaolin.”

Namikaze Minato was speechless when he heard the words, but Namikaze Minato was worthy of being the person who was about to become the fourth Hokage, and quickly reconciled his emotions.

“Yuan, what’s going on with this guy?”

Yamanaka Ryo repeated what he had said to Kushina to Minato Namikaze, and Minato Namikaze realized how the creature in front of him came from.

“Yuan, is she still a tailed beast?” Minato Namikaze pointed at Xiaolin and asked.

“It’s still a tailed beast in terms of strength and chakra, and its life form is already different from the tailed beast.”

“So that’s what it is! Why do you want me to keep it a secret, don’t tell Hokage-sama?” Minato Namikaze then asked.

“Brother Minato, don’t you know why? Or you don’t even believe me and Sister Kushina.” Yamanaka Ryo asked back.

“Yuan, you are really smart, thank you!”

In the conversation between Minato Namikaze and Ryo Yamanaka, Kushina understood the meaning of every word, but she couldn’t understand a single sentence.

“Hey! What are you two talking about!” Kushina asked directly.

Minato Namikaze smiled and said, “Let’s talk about what happens after I become Hokage.”

Kushina was a little puzzled when he heard the words: “What happens after becoming Hokage? After becoming Hokage, can’t it be enough to protect Konoha?”

“It’s not that simple! Sister Kushina, think about the three Hokage before Minato-san. The first and second Hokage belonged to the Thousand Hands clan, and the third Hokage belonged to the Sarutobi clan. These three Hokage lords were all from the family ninja, and they represent It is the middle and high-level forces of Konoha.”

“Family ninja? Are you saying that Minato’s identity as a civilian ninja hinders him from becoming a Hokage?” Kushina is a relatively simple person, but she is definitely not stupid, and she quickly sorted out the idea.

“That’s it! The first Hokage aside, the second Hokage and the third Hokage have their families behind them. The Senju family was stronger than the Uchiha family in the early Konoha era.”

Yamanaka Yuan slowed down for a while, and continued to say, “Although the Sarutobi family is not as strong as Uchiha and Hyuga, this family is indeed the leader of many small and medium-sized families in Konoha. It is precisely because of the power of the family that the second and third generations of Hokage can be in Konoha. Truly stand firm and speak your mind.”

“Minato doesn’t have the support of the family, doesn’t that mean he doesn’t have much power as Hokage?” Kushina grasped the crux of the matter.

Yamanaka Ryo nodded and continued: “It should have been like this, but now the situation has changed a lot, how did you get the support of Hyuga and Uchiha clan, Minato-san?”

Namikaze Minato did not hide and told Yamanaka Ryo and Kushina Kushina exactly what happened. “The Hyuga clan came to me because they were dissatisfied with the growth of the Sarutobi clan, and the Uchiha clan was a deal between me and Uchiha Fugaku. I promised him to help the Uchiha clan return to the center of the village after I became Hokage.”

“So that’s how it is! I said why you were so calm during the four-generation Hokage election. It turns out that someone has supported you for a long time, which made me worry about it for so long.” Kushina complained towards Minato.

“Sorry, sorry! Kushina is my fault!” Minato scratched his head and hurriedly confessed to Kushina.

Kushina didn’t dwell on the past, but continued to ask, “Why did you thank Minato just now?”

“It’s because Yuan Yuan has supported me on behalf of the three clans of pigs, deer and butterflies. He told me his biggest secret, which represents a kind of support for me. Isn’t Yuan Yuan?”

“Yeah! This is the result of our three clan discussions.” Yamanaka Ryo nodded and said.

“Yuan, hasn’t your family always had a good relationship with the Sarutobi clan? Why did it suddenly change?” Kushina was a little puzzled.

“That’s right, with the three generations of Hokage in power, the Sarutobi clan has grown too fast, and other small and medium-sized families are more and more like vassals of the Sarutobi clan. The combined strength of our three clans is no worse than the Sarutobi clan, and we don’t want to become the Sarutobi clan. A vassal. That’s why I took the opportunity to draw a clear line.” Yamanaka Ryo also expressed his thoughts.

Namikaze Minato was very happy to hear the words, and Yamanaka Ryo’s statement gave him another powerful support.

Now that Namikaze Minato has become Naruto, he has the support of Uchiha, Hyuga, Inoka Butterfly, and most of Konoha’s civilian ninjas. His Naruto team is strong enough.

“Big brother Minato, I forgot to ask you, will Uncle Jiraiya support you after you become Hokage?”

“I asked the teacher, but he didn’t answer me directly. He said that he would only be the pillar of Konoha.” Minato Namikaze said with a wry smile.

Yamanaka Ryo also laughed after hearing this: “It’s really Uncle Jiraiya’s style.”

After the conversation, Yamanaka Ryo made Xiaolin change back to the appearance of a puppet cat, and then unlocked Kenichi Hyuga’s illusion.

After he woke up, Hyuga Kenichi looked around in a daze. When he saw Minato Minato and Kushina still searching, Hyuga Kenichi thought he was distracted, so he cheered up and continued to look for the little Lin he had seen before. .
