On the Light Screen, Naruto scratched his head. "Honestly, I feel pretty strange right now. Since I descended in the body of my sixteen-year-old self, my mental age should have remained sixteen as well. After all, that's a trait of a Servant's body."
"But in reality, my mental state unexpectedly turned out to be from when I was thirty-two. Using a sixteen-year-old body with the mindset I had back then... honestly, Dad, it feels really weird."
By the end, Naruto wore an awkward yet polite smile.
Minato Namikaze smiled as he listened. "Looks like you really did become an outstanding ninja, Naruto."
Naruto looked wistful. "Outstanding... No, I should say I was a failure... Even though I became the Seventh Hokage, I still couldn't stop the Ninja World from being destroyed..."
By the end, his expression had fallen.
Clearly, failing to save the Ninja World had become a tremendous burden on him. He constantly exuded sorrow and melancholy, his heart filled with guilt.
It seemed that this boy had taken the responsibility for the destruction of the Ninja World entirely upon himself.
Minato Namikaze could see that, and naturally, he did not agree. He did not believe that the destruction of the Ninja World should be laid at his son's feet.
After all, a catastrophe capable of destroying the entire Ninja World should have been borne by the entire Ninja World, not placed solely upon his son.
Without a doubt, Minato Namikaze's instinct to protect his son played a part in that, but in a sense, he was not wrong at all.
However, Minato Namikaze did not state his views directly. Instead, he quickly shifted his attention to something else.
Minato Namikaze immediately looked surprised. "The Seventh Hokage? You became the Seventh Hokage?"
Hearing that, Naruto finally smiled again and
