Hokage's Name

After Minamoto Takuya left, Minato Namikaze wasted no time either.

He swiftly escorted Kushina Uzumaki to an absolutely safe, secluded location far from the fighting.

After confirming that Kushina was safe for the time being, the weight in his heart eased slightly. Then he rushed back toward the village at full speed.

A flash of gold, and Minato Namikaze was already standing atop the towering Hokage Rock.

A breeze thick with smoke stirred the tips of his golden hair as his gaze swept across Konohagakure below, now engulfed in chaos.
