Of course, they also brought along Kazahana Dōtō and Snow Ninja who were unconscious and labeled Sealing Jutsu by Naruto.
If they are thrown here, no matter whether they live or die, they will freeze to death in a short time on the land of Land of Snow.
"In that case, everyone, there is still a place I want to go to. The treasure my father left behind is probably over there. I wonder if you can accompany me there."
After watching Sandayu and others leave, Kazahana Koyuki held Hexagonal Crystal in his hand, turned around and asked Naruto and the others.
Obviously, Kazahana Koyuki is ready to fulfill his previous promise.
And she also deliberately kept an eye on it. Although the people on the crew were very nice, the so-called wealth would not be exposed. Just in case, she only planned to let Naruto and the others accompany her to open the treasure.
At this time, in Mental Space in Naruto's heart, Nine-Tails, who saw that the matter had come to an end, looked at Minato.
"Minato, what are your plans when you asked me to inform Naruto to save that guy's life?"
Kazahana Dōtō, even in the previous life, this person has no sense of existence in the memory of Nine-Tails.
It can only recall that this guy was just an enemy defeated by Naruto in his previous life, relying on (forcibly releasing) his own little Chakra.
Such a role is not as valuable as Uchiha Clan or Uchiha Itachi.
And Nine-Tails doesn't think he has anything worthy of Minato's concern, let alone the possibility of helping Naruto in the future Ōtsutsuki War?
Even in Naruto's first mission, Nine-Tails had no intention of paying attention to it. If it weren't for Minato's request, it wouldn't be possible for it to speak.
"Land of Snow is very weak, not only the citizens, but also the Ninja in their country. As for those Snow Ninja who have a certain level, it seems that they are just the Rogue Ninja hired by Fenghua Dotō who joined later."
Since Naruto officially confronted Snow Ninja, Minato has used Nine-Tails's ability to observe the outside world.
The information extracted from Kazahana Dōtō during Naruto's transformation was enough to give Minato a general understanding of Land of Snow's current situation.
"It is located in a remote location, with poor resources, a harsh environment, and the capabilities of its citizens are not strong. A country like Land of Snow is too weak for a big country in Shinobi World, and it does not have strategic resources worthy of starting a war.
As long as this kind of country retains a certain degree of military capability, it can maintain public security on a daily basis. Apart from civil strife, there will not be any danger."
"It doesn't matter if Land of Snow continues to govern itself as before."
Minato explained what he observed.
"Still like before? Could it be that, Minato, you want Land of Snow to become another hidden force of Naruto and them?"
Nine-Tails originally thought that this was Minato's plan.
"No, there is still a difference between Land of Snow and Uchiha Clan. The latter has completely disappeared on the surface, but Land of Snow cannot. After Naruto reported the mission, Konoha will definitely pay attention to it. It can even be said that, Lord Kurama, what kind of tasks do you think Kakashi, who was still Anbu back then, took on Land of Snow?"
"If he is involved with the current Konoha and does not have enough self-worth, the best outcome for Land of Snow can only be to become a vassal. Or even be a little passive and be like Konoha It is not impossible for people like Danzo to infiltrate and control. The next step is to gradually be squeezed and lose the ability to self-manage until the value of use is drained, and finally falls apart and disappears into Shinobi World."
"If the process is tortuous, it is normal to turn against Konoha."
"If you are too weak, you will lose not only the right to speak, but also the right to choose. The so-called allies are just empty words."
Minato analyzed calmly.
"Hmph, so what, the history of your human race Shinobi World has always been about survival of the fittest."
Nine-Tails disagrees.
"But this is definitely not Naruto's original intention, nor is it the result he wants."
Minato looks at Inner Space, who is still shining brightly. This is the truest portrayal of the spirit of Naruto.
His expression is gentle, and this tenderness is unique to a father towards his son.
"He really wants to help this country, and his purpose is not to do anything for him next, or to hear the bad news that this country has disappeared. Then, Land of Snow must learn to grow, and at the same time, be able to give something back to Naruto."
"Kazahana Dōtō, no matter what, this person has certain talents. It is a miracle that a prop like Chakra Armor, which can effectively improve the general Ninja's combat capabilities, can be developed in a country with few resources."
"Although its creator fancifully thought that he could use this to pose a threat to other major countries, this is also limited by his vision as a Small Nations people."
Minato looked at Nine-Tails and chuckled, "Maybe Lord Kurama doesn't think it's strange, but as a human being, I think there is enough room for this kind of tool to be used. It has a very significant effect on Ninja who is generally armed, and its potential value is very high."
"So?"
"Land of Snow does not need to become a useless appendage. This country has its own value. Use this Chakra Armor as your own trading method to establish diplomatic relations with Konoha. And Konoha of Land of Fire is large enough to bring the market of this Chakra Armor to other countries.
The country in this environment has no other natural resource output. Chakra Armor, as the only product researched by Land of Snow, will increase the country's Diplomacy value in the short term.
Before the princess Land of Snow and the next Queen have fully grown up, Kazahana Dōtō is the value of their country."
Unlike Naruto, who was still naive and pure at this time, Minato, who used to be Fourth Hokage, did think more comprehensively. What he considered was not just for the moment, but...
Nine-Tails looked at Minato, vaguely seeming to understand his thoughts.
"Lord Kurama, Konoha need to become the center of Shinobi World. In terms of economic and strength, they must first get rid of the control of Land of Fire."
"You described the future Konoha to me, which made me realize the deformity of Shinobi Village at this moment. He obviously has power, but he has always been used only as the country's blade. This status quo of Konoha needs to change."
Minato then looked at Nine-Tails and concluded seriously.
"It seems that you already have an idea." Nine-Tails was silent for a moment, looked at Minato who had been getting along day and night, and suddenly smiled, "Then you think, this Land of Snow has also entered your plan?"
"It's probably just a little different from Lord Kurama's direction." Minato also smiled, "But we have the same goal by different paths. I believe this will help Naruto. Ōtsutsuki War is destined to come in that game."
"You have your own way, it doesn't matter to me." Nine-Tails suddenly seemed to remember something, "But I seem to have remembered something, this Land of Snow's secret treasure..."
