Naruto: Starting from the Uchiha and Senju bloodlines

Sarutobi Hiruzen told Namikaze Minato all the big and small things that had happened in Konoha over the years.

Of course, Sarutobi Hiruzen had embellished his descriptions of the things that happened to them.

For example, after the death of Hyuga Hizashi, he told Minato Namikaze that he had been trying to find a way to resolve the attack from the Hidden Cloud Village. Even if the Hidden Cloud Village really wanted to declare war on Konoha in the end, Sarutobi Hiruzen said that he did not intend to sacrifice Hyuga Hizashi or Hyuga Hiashi.

He also said that he was ready to fight the Hidden Cloud Village again, but the elders of the Hyuga clan found him and persuaded him that Konoha had finally achieved peace and that Hyuga Hizashi was willing to sacrifice himself in exchange for peace. As a last resort, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only agree to the Hyuga clan's request and agreed to sacrifice Hyuga Hizashi.

For example, in the massacre of the Uchiha clan, Sarutobi Hiruzen portrayed himself as one of the victims and described those Uchiha clan members who wanted a coup as greedy people who wanted to turn Konoha into the Uchiha's Konoha. In the end, he had no choice but to let Uchiha Itachi get rid of those Uchiha clan members.

Not knowing the whole story and trusting Sarutobi Hiruzen very much, Namikaze Minato naturally believed it as well.

Namikaze Minato was in great sorrow: "Did so many things happen in Konoha while I was unconscious?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed and said, "Yes, after your death was announced to protect your safety, it seemed to outsiders that we, Konoha, had lost our Hokage and were now in a state of chaos without a leader, so they tried every means to plunder from us.

I had no choice but to take on the role of Hokage again. What happened afterwards made me realize over and over again that I am really old and I am really not up to the task anymore. "

Namikaze Minato guiltily apologized to Sarutobi Hiruzen, "I'm sorry, Sandaime, for letting you bear all this pressure alone, but isn't there a suitable candidate for the Fifth Generation during this period?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head and said, "There were many excellent ninjas, but there was no one who could be the Kage at that time, because there was no one who could take on the responsibilities of a Kage like you. Now it's good that you've woken up.

Minato, although I really want to hand over the position of Hokage to you immediately, you have been in a coma for 12 years after all, and you don't know the situation of Konoha. Your body also needs to be cultivated. At the same time, there are also the reasons of Miyuki and Naruto...

Therefore, I will announce to the public that you are still alive and have awakened. I will continue to take over the duties of Hokage temporarily. While you recuperate, you can slowly understand the current situation of Konoha.

And there is Naruto. Most people don’t know Naruto’s identity, and Naruto has always thought that he is an orphan.

Therefore, I suggest that you can first tell Naruto alone that you are his father, but do not announce Naruto's identity as your son in Konoha for the time being. Otherwise, as your child and also a Jinchūriki, these two identities will make it impossible for Naruto to continue living as an ordinary ninja, and Naruto may not be able to accept it.

After Naruto accepts his identity as the son of the Fourth Hokage, his identity can be announced to Konoha, and Naruto and everyone can gradually accept this truth, which can avoid a lot of trouble.

Also, since you're awake, Miyuki's issue must be resolved as soon as possible. After all, what was announced to the public was that Miyuki was abducted by a mysterious ninja. After announcing that you're still alive, this matter will definitely come back into people's attention, so it may not be kept secret for long.

If the news of Miyuki's defection gets out, it will have a negative impact on your status as Hokage."

Namikaze Minato nodded and agreed: "Just follow the plan of the Sandaime. If there is a suitable Fifth Hokage, I can step down and pass the position of Hokage to the Fifth Hokage, or..."

Namikaze Minato's eyes were filled with guilt: "Or I can just resign now. I have been in a coma for 12 years, and Naruto has grown up. I missed his childhood, and I want to make it up to him. I also want to concentrate on finding Miyuki, bring her back, and reunite our family of three.

I am sorry to Miyuki and Naruto. If I hadn't insisted on sealing the Nine-Tails in Miyuki and Naruto's bodies that night, perhaps things wouldn't have come to this."

There was a gleam in Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.

The reason why he didn't want Namikaze Minato to directly announce to everyone in Konoha that Uzumaki Naruto was his child was because Sarutobi Hiruzen was worried that after this announcement, he would immediately lose all his rights.

For the sake of Konoha, he sealed the Nine-Tails in his wife and children and was in a coma for 12 years. The child who should have been a hero was misunderstood by everyone.

When the truth is known by everyone, the respect for Minato Namikaze and the guilt towards Naruto Uzumaki will make Minato Namikaze's fame reach its peak.

From now on, the third Hokage of Konoha will become a thing of the past. Even if he has the help of Utatane Koharu, Mitokado En, and Danzo, he will not be able to prevent this result. In the entire Konoha, there will only be the Fourth Hokage.

Sarutobi Hiruzen believed that he was not greedy for power, but he just wanted Konoha to operate according to his ideas, so he had to hold power in his hands so that he could correct it when Konoha did not operate according to his ideas.

If Minato Namikaze wanted to directly announce Uzumaki Naruto's identity and then change his policy of governing Konoha, then Uzumaki Miyuki would be the trump card in Sarutobi Hiruzen's hand.

At that time, as long as Uzumaki Miyuki's identity as a traitor is announced, Namikaze Minato will be able to be restrained.

However, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not expect that Namikaze Minato would voluntarily give up the position of Hokage.

Although Minato Namikaze was Jiraiya's disciple, and it was Jiraiya who personally pushed Minato Namikaze to the position of Hokage, no matter how much he trusted Minato Namikaze before, after 12 years and a lot of things had passed, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not completely trust Minato Namikaze.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, "Minato, while you recover and learn about Konoha's situation, you should think about it carefully. If you still don't change your mind, then I will look for the fifth Hokage with you. I am still strong and can continue to hold on for a while, so you don't have to worry.

Now that you've woken up, you have many opportunities to make up for Naruto. As for Miyuki, she should be with Chiyu and the others now. Chiyu is in a mysterious organization, but the situation of this mysterious organization is still unclear. However, I have been investigating.

As long as you can find Miyuki in time and don't let anyone know that she defected from Konoha, then everything will be in time and your family of three can be reunited."

Namikaze Minato said gratefully: "Thank you so much, Sandaime, thank you for helping me take care of Naruto and giving me the chance to win back Miyuki."
