Seeing Uchiha Yuzhen's gaze fall on Naruto's belly, Sasuke frowned slightly. "Don't do anything unnecessary, Yuzhen-kun!"
At this point in time, Naruto's seal contained the chakra of his parents.
As Naruto's closest friend,
Sasuke knew this very well.
So, knowing how important that chakra was to Naruto,
he reminded the powerful man before him not to do anything unnecessary.
After all, when it came to Naruto,
even if Sasuke knew he was outmatched, he wouldn't back down an inch.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah~ Don't worry, I won't. But there's no problem with telling Naruto who his father is."
Waving a hand at Sasuke, Uchiha Yuzhen turned to Naruto, his expression growing a little more serious.
"Your father was the Fourth Hokage of Konoha—Namikaze Minato! Your mother was the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki—Kushina Uzumaki."
"We came here simply to see how you were doing."
"And, while we're at it, to give you a little insurance!"
At that,
little Naruto's pupils trembled violently. "My father was the Fourth Hokage? My mother's name was Kushina Uzumaki, and she was connected to the Nine-Tails the village is always talking about?"
"Uncle Yuzhen and Uncle Jizhang came to give me some insurance?"
"What kind of insurance?!"
In that instant,
a flood of unbelievable information surged through Naruto's mind.
He found it utterly inconceivable.
By this point, he had already begun dreaming of becoming Hokage, yet his father had been the Fourth Hokage?
And...
His father's friends had come to give him some insurance?
Naruto, who hadn't yet learned to play dumb at this age, immediately understood.
Someone was trying to hurt him?
But Grandpa Third had always looked after him. Who would dare to really harm him?
No!
None of that mattered.
The revelation that his father was the Fourth Hokage—Namikaze Minato—left a gaping void in Naruto's heart.
