In the following review, Minato surprisingly became the Fourth Hokage upon the recommendation of the Third Hokage.
Because the Third Hokage was forced to cede too many benefits in peace talks with other ninja villages, and because too many Shinobi died in the war, he was forced to resign.
And the rising star in the war, the Yellow Flash of Konoha, Minato Namikaze, unsurprisingly became the next Hokage.
Compared to Danzo's suggestion to make Orochimaru the new ruler, the daimyo preferred the sunny and handsome Minato Namikaze.
Might Guy often wandered around the village, was the first to receive the news. Without hesitation, Might Guy turned around to find Kakashi, wanting to tell Kakashi the good news.
Kakashi has been really depressed lately, always silent and unwilling to communicate with people.
"Hey, Kakashi!"
At this moment, Kakashi was simply sitting quietly in a secluded spot, silently reading a book.
Might Guy snatched the book from Kakashi's hand and glanced at it.
"How should one die?" Kakashi thought nothing of this.
"Give it back to me! And what's the rush?" Kakashi snatched the book back and said.
"By the way, the Fourth Hokage has been announced! Don't be scared, though! The Fourth Hokage is Minato-sensei!" Might Guy said excitedly.
The scene shifts, and Kakashi arrives alone at the Konoha Cemetery, in front of Rin's grave.
"Rin, Minato-sensei is going to become Hokage." At this moment, Kakashi still had high hopes for Minato-sensei, hoping that he could change Konoha and the Shinobi World.
Yuki wasn't any special information, so Kakashi didn't pay much attention to it, which was a habit he had always had.
[Akimichi Chōza: As expected, you're going to be the Fourth Hokage, Minato.]
[Shibi Aburame: Congratulations, Minato.]
[Inuzuka Gaku: I've said it before, with Minato's strength, his future is definitely immeasurable. How could someone who can influence the very course of events with their individual power be an ordinary person?]
Shikaku Nara, Yamanaka Inojin, Hizashi Hyuga Uchiha Fugaku, and others all congratulated Minato. Before the Inventory System was in place, it was impossible for anyone to predict whether the next Hokage would be Orochimaru or Minato Namikaze.
So now, Minato can be said to be the one everyone wants. Anyone with eyes can see that if Minato becomes Hokage Konoha Shinobi Village will bring even greater glory to the Konoha.
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: It seems I'm getting old; it's time to step down and hand over the reins to these younger generation.]
[Minato Namikaze: No, the Third Hokage's contributions to Konoha are indelible.]
At this moment, everyone realized that the Third was still alive, and they couldn't act so recklessly.
At this time, Minato, who had just Hokage, unsurprisingly approached Kakashi immediately and invited Kakashi to join the Anbu directly under the Hokage.
Because the Third Hokage was worried that Minato lacked experience, all the Anbu directly under the Hokage were not handed over to Minato during the succession ceremony. Instead, he was allowed to form an Anbu Minato, and the members could be selected by Minato himself.
Minato's first thought was definitely his students, but it was a pity that Obito and Rin weren't there; otherwise, they would have been a great asset.
With their help, Minato gained more confidence in changing Konoha.
[Obito: Don't worry, Minato-sensei, I'll definitely help you change Konoha after you become Hokage!]
At this moment, Obito spoke with great confidence.
[Kakashi: You idiot Obito, that's not what Minato-sensei meant!]
Kakashi frantically winked at Obito, "What do you mean, Obito? You think the Third Hokage is bad? You can't just say it out loud, Minato-sensei hasn't even Hokage yet."
However, Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't really care at this moment. After all, Minato was his grand-disciple, a true member of the Hokage faction. Moreover, Minato was born a commoner, so he would definitely be much better at doing things than him. At least he didn't have to worry about so many things.
From then on, Kakashi wore the mask exclusive to the Anbu and became a shadow hidden in the dark.
At the same time, Kushina also found out she was pregnant.
As expected, Minato relayed the news to Kakashi and asked him to protect Kushina during this time.
After all, childbirth for Jinchūriki is a very serious matter.
"Therefore, I would like to ask you to be Kushina's bodyguard and protect her."
"Hi!"
From then on, Kakashi had another task: every day when Kushina went out, Kakashi would secretly follow behind her to prevent Kushina from happening to her.
Kakashi also witnessed Naruto's birth. From the Kushina discovered she was pregnant until the day before she gave birth, Kakashi protected Kushina at all times.
[Obito: Well done, Kakashi! Don't let my schemes succeed! You're Kakashi Hatake of Konoha!]
At this moment, Obito desperately hoped that Kakashi could stop him, but unfortunately, he had placed his hopes on the wrong person.
[Shikaku Nara: Actually, I was very curious at the time how Obito Uchiha knew the exact time of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki's delivery?]
[Hiruzen Sarutobi: Good question. This kind of thing was a top-secret mission at the time, and theoretically it shouldn't have been leaked.]
This question will be answered soon.
It was dusk, Kakashi, having finished his day's mission, came alone to the Konoha Cemetery.
This is the place he's visited most often during this period. It's a pity, really, that he didn't cherish Obito and Rin when they were alive.
Instead, he regrets it now that they're gone.
Kakashi carefully wiped the dust off Rin's tombstone, then replaced the withered flowers.
"I'm sorry I haven't visited you in so long," Kakashi said to Rin's gravestone.
"I swear, I really didn't mean to forget you all. There's something I need to tell you, although it's confidential right now."
[Shikaku Nara:?]
[Obito Uchiha:?]
Oh no! No wonder the intelligence leaked so accurately; there were two bad guys among the crowd! You two are really something...
"Minato-sensei's child is about to be born." At this moment, Kakashi felt an overwhelming sense of nostalgia for the old days.
He could never forget everything about Team Minato, and Kakashi didn't want anything like that to happen again.
I only hope that the next generation can live in a peaceful era, and not have to go to the battlefield at such a young age like them.
Of course, if they had been born later, perhaps...
Kakashi felt incredibly lonely at that moment. He was the only one left from Team 7, which was a kind of torment for him.
"I'll go tell Obito again." Kakashi packed his things and left.
Little did Kakashi know, a mysterious figure in a tiger-skin mask had been watching Kakashi every move.
If people are still unsure of the masked man's identity, then his next actions will reveal it.
The mysterious figure snatched the flower that Kakashi had placed in front of Rin's tombstone and threw it away.
