As soon as she walked in, she saw her teacher drinking tea in the courtyard. Lord Jiraiya was chatting with a blond man who looked very much like Naruto, while Naruto was sitting aside and watching quietly.
"Teacher Tsunade, Lord Jiraiya."
Karin first greeted the two of them politely, then turned to Minato Namikaze and asked, "Who is this?"
Minato Namikaze was slightly startled when he saw the familiar Red-Hair on the other side of Karin.
For a moment, he seemed to see the young Kushina, with the same bright and warm red long hair and the same bright eyes.
Jiraiya raised his eyebrows and spoke before Naruto:
"Karin, this is Minato Namikaze, Fourth Hokage of Konoha, and the father of Naruto."
"Huh?"
Karin was stunned when he heard this.
a moment later
The aroma of food wafted out from the kitchen and filled the entire living room. Everyone sat around the dining table. Shadow Clone Technique brought the last dish to the table and dissipated into white smoke.
While Karin was eating, he secretly glanced at Minato Namikaze sitting opposite from time to time.
This blond man had the same gentle smile on his face as Naruto.
If Minato Namikaze felt something, he raised his head and met Karin's secretly looking eyes, so he smiled slightly:
"Are you Naruto's girlfriend?"
When Karin heard this, his face turned red. He secretly glanced at Naruto who was eating, and then shook his head.
When Minato saw Karin's reaction, the smile on his face became even gentler:
"You are very similar to Naruto's mother, who is also Uzumaki clan's."
Karin nodded and buried his face in the bowl.
Minato Namikaze looked at this warm scene, the smile on his lips never disappeared. He thought silently in his heart, it would be great if Kushina was here too.
Soon after the warm meal was finished, Tsunade took Jiraiya and Minato to Hokage Building to discuss a series of matters after Minato's resurrection. Karin helped Naruto clean up the dishes and then returned to his residence.
Before leaving, Karin stood at the door and hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Naruto, is that person really your father?"
Naruto nodded.
The next day
Tsunade held a temporary Jōnin meeting at Hokage Building.
Except for a few people who were unable to return from their missions, almost all of Konoha's Jonin in the village were present.
The conference room was full, even the two elders Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura were present.
Tsunade stood up, put his hands on the conference table, looked around and announced the first thing today:
Half a year later, Naruto Uzumaki will officially take over the position of Sixth Hokage."
The conference room was quiet for a moment, and then whispers broke out one after another.
The Jōnins present all know that Naruto was trained by Tsunade as the next Hokage. They also know that with Naruto's achievements and strength in capturing Raikage and defeating Eight-Tails, he will take this position sooner or later.
But is it too hasty to announce now that he will take over in half a year?
Naruto Uzumaki has just become Jōnin not long ago, and he is too young.
The two elder advisors Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura looked at each other and stood up from their seats at the same time.
"This decision is too hasty. Hokage Position is not a child's play. We cannot omit all processes just because of military achievements."
Naruto stood up slowly after hearing this, and calmly glanced at everyone in the conference room, with a faint smile on his lips.
Everyone looked at Naruto, expecting him to say something.
But the next moment, an indescribable Chakra pressure descended on the entire conference room without warning.
This wave of Chakra is majestic and solid. Under this wave of Chakra, everyone here only feels that they are as small as a small boat in the storm.
Several Special Jōnin turned pale and held on to the chair surface with their hands to prevent them from sliding down.
Even Kakashi and Kai and other Jōnin who had experienced many battles did not consciously tighten their muscles.
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura opened their eyes wide and turned pale.
Now everyone finally understood one thing: why Tsunade would train Naruto as Sixth Hokage, and why he directly announced today that he would take over in half a year.
Not because of his military exploits or reputation, but because Naruto Uzumaki's strength has reached a level that is beyond the reach of all of them.
His wings have become completely full and he no longer needs anyone's protection.
This Chakra pressure reminded them of the Konoha legendary man who stood at the top of Shinobi World.
First Hokage, Hashirama Senju.
After a while, Naruto took back Chakra. Everyone in the conference room breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and their backs were unknowingly soaked with cold sweat.
Naruto looked around calmly, sat down again, and said in a calm tone:
"Then please give me your advice in the future."
Jiraiya stood up and looked around at everyone present. Jōnin slowly spoke:
"I support Naruto becoming Sixth Hokage!"
The statement of Jiraiya, one of Sannin, calmed down some people who were still wavering.
At this moment, a familiar voice came from outside the conference room door. "I also support Naruto becoming Hokage."
This sound made some Jōnin in the conference room shrink their pupils at the same time, and then looked at the door in disbelief.
Kakashi jumped up from his seat.
The door to the conference room was pushed open, and Minato Namikaze slowly walked in with a smile as warm as the sun on his face.
"Teacher..."
"Fourth Hokage..."
Kakashi eyes widened.
Shikaku Nara, Choza Akimichi, Inoichi Yamanaka and all Jōnin all stood up.
Minato Namikaze looked at these old comrades who fought alongside him more than ten years ago, and the smile on his face became a little warmer.
"Long time no see, Kakashi, Shikaku, Dingzuo, Inoichi."
"It's really Fourth Hokage..."
"Didn't you already..."
Some people stammered, and the second half of the sentence was stuck in their throats and they couldn't come out.
"For some reason, I came back to life."
"Everyone, I'm back."
"Then, please support Naruto to become Sixth Hokage."
Everyone slowly recovered from the shock.
Fourth Hokage is resurrected, Konoha now has Jiraiya in charge, and Fifth Hokage Tsunade is in charge of the overall situation.
Such a lineup is unprecedented in the entire history of Shinobi World.
Naruto Uzumaki is the biological son of Fourth Hokage. If something goes wrong with him doing Hokage, there are still Fourth Hokage and the fifth generation looking after him.
If that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about.
"I agree."
"I agree too."
"Second."
Jōnin people expressed their opinions one after another, and even those who were hesitant at first raised their hands.
Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura looked at each other, and a complicated look flashed in their eyes at the same time.
Mitokado Homura sighed slowly, Utatane Koharu nodded slightly.
Tsunade didn't notify them in advance of such a big thing. It seems that they are really old and this stage no longer belongs to their generation.
The meeting ended in solemnity.
The news of Minato Namikaze's resurrection has only been spread within a small area for the time being, but everyone who heard the news could not hide the shock in their hearts.
Kakashi found Minato Namikaze immediately after the meeting.
Naruto did not participate in the reminiscing between these old comrades. He followed Tsunade back to Hokage Office to continue to familiarize himself with Hokage's business process.
Tsunade sat in the main seat and looked at Naruto: "Today, your Chakra pressure was very effective."
"The elders and Jōnin need a direct reason to accept Hokage who is too young."
"Strength is the most direct reason."
Naruto continued to approve the documents without raising his head.
Tsunade nodded and leaned on the back of the chair, watching Naruto turn pages quickly.
