Konoha: Naruto Returns from Sekiro

What would you do when you could choose whether to know what was going to happen in the future?

Presumably most people would happily accept the choice.

After all, who doesn't want to be prepared for everything, and even use these 'prophets' to move to a higher level.

However, there are always exceptions.

"Kusukuna, stop talking." Namikaze Minato interrupted his wife's desire to reveal more information about the 'future' to him.

"The reason why life is wonderful lies in the choice you make that is worthy of your heart when you face the unknown."

Minato said so, so he chose to refuse to 'predict the future'.

[Is this the future Fourth Generation Hokage...]

For this, Naruto couldn't help secretly admiring.

Sticking to one's true intentions is a very simple thing, but there are only a few things that can really be done.

Perhaps in Minato's view, becoming Hokage is the fruit of his continuous efforts, rather than the result of repeated planning.

Between making his own choices at the crossroads of life and getting a life map in advance, he chose the former.

The results are worth looking forward to, but the pursuit process is also beautiful.

but,

"My opinion is somewhat different from yours." Naruto said out loud.

"You think the reason why life is wonderful lies in the 'unknown' nature of the future, but why do you reject an even more 'unknown' future?"

Namikaze Minato's lips moved, but after a moment, he fell silent.

He naturally understood what Naruto meant, but for some reason, he instinctively resented the transparency of everything in his future.

"As for changing the future." Naruto continued, "If the future is fixed and should not be changed, then how can it be considered 'unknown'."

Perhaps it was because of Kushina's care for him, but he instinctively resented that 'tragedy' happening again.

In addition, he has also been thinking about a question these days. When he came to this era, did he really travel to his past timeline?

Regarding "past life", although most people believe in its existence, it is more based on a beautiful conjecture.

Regarding that world of immortals, he didn't know whether he was Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly or Zhuang Zhou dreaming of a butterfly.

But both are possible, that is to say, such things as 'previous lives' really exist.

He was able to come to this world from the world of the undead, that 'previous life'.

Does that mean that he is the 'only' one?

Assuming that he has 'uniqueness', then before he came to this world, what he is experiencing now would not have happened.

If we start from this premise, then Minato Namikaze's theory of "changing the future" will be self-defeating.

The future is inherently uncertain, so how can it change.

So why does he appear in this, past 'timeline' again?

He prefers parallel worlds.

It's like twins, exactly the same, but two completely different flowers.

He was taken to another 'similar flower' by the powerful chakra of the dragon vein, which is the world he is in now.

What has happened in his world may not necessarily happen in this world.

His appearance has already explained many problems.

"In addition, based on my mother's care, I will definitely tell you everything that happens in the 'future'." Naruto said without any doubt.

"The reason why an ideal is called an ideal is because, after all, it has to be in touch with reality."

"You cannot sacrifice your mother and the unborn 'Uzumaki Naruto' in this world just because of your ideal pursuit of life!"

As his voice fell, the atmosphere reached a freezing point in an instant.

Kuko Nai sat between the two of them, persuading neither of them.

In terms of emotion, reason, and even her own inner thoughts, she should stand by little Naruto.

Although she also agrees that Little Sun pursues his ideals in his own way.

But she didn't want her child to be without parents as soon as she was born; she didn't want her child to become a Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki just like herself; she didn't want her child to grow up in indifference and rejection.

She is a mother, and she hopes that her children will live under the sun, live under the care of their mother, and grow up in laughter!

She is Minato's wife, but she is also the mother of her unborn child!

For the sake of your own children, so what if you change the future?

Minato looked at the opposite, his "future" child, and then at his wife, his inner persistence wavered.

Although I haven't heard it with my own ears, judging from the persistence of the two, the "future" they insist on is probably a sad "future".

"...you tell me."

In the end, Minato let go of his pointless insistence.

Hearing this, Naruto and Kukina secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Being able to solve problems through communication is naturally the best.

Especially Naruto, who secretly calmed down the running Chakra.

He was even ready to forcibly reverse Namikaze Minato's thoughts by force.

He didn't know whether he could beat him or not, but there were some things that he had to do even if the outcome was already determined!

Immediately, Naruto told what he knew one by one.

From the outbreak of the Third World War, to Orochimaru's defection, to Namikaze Minato taking over as the Fourth Hokage, and to the end——

Nine Tails Rebellion!

He had asked the Nine Lamas, but at that time he was controlled by a mysterious person, so he didn't know what happened at that time.

"You mean, Kyuubi was controlled by someone?" Namikaze Minato couldn't help pinching the space between his brows, "Or Sharingan?"

Although the nine tailed beasts were assigned by Konoha during the First Hokage period, it does not mean that they are weak.

It was because they were too powerful that they were noticed by the First Hokage, who captured and distributed them.

And based on this, through the powerful strength of the tailed beasts, the hard-won peace between the ninja villages and even the ninja world is maintained.

As for controlling Nine Tails, in his impression, only two people could do it.

One is the first generation Hokage carved on the stone wall, and the other is to establish Konoha together with the first generation Hokage, the head of the Uchiha clan at that time, Uchiha Madara.

It may be possible to manipulate the Sharingan of Tailed Beasts. Since Uchiha Madara's death, no second Uchiha has been able to do it.

"Don't look at me like that, I only found out about this secret by chance." Naruto shrugged. He was very lucky that he went to pry Konoha's information room at that time.

Otherwise, who would dare to believe that in the 48th year of Konoha, the Nine Tails Rebellion that severely damaged Konoha's vitality was deliberately planned by someone.

"This is what you want to investigate. For this world, I am just a passer-by after all."

"By the way, I have a few questions I want to ask you." Naruto asked, looking at Namikaze Minato.

"Say." Although Namikaze Minato was confused, he needed to ask himself for answers as to what problems his 'son' from the future would have.

But as a father, it is his duty to answer his children's questions.

"What do you think of ninjas? And ninja villages?"
