Chapter 328

~4 min read 766 words

It was highly likely that Namikaze Minato wouldn't have even let him finish speaking.

But now, it was different!

It was precisely because of Uchiha Jin's selflessness, having no demands on him at all, and instead acting as if he were thinking for him.

This made him hesitate.

Immediately after.

On the way back, he also began to think.

Now that Kushina knew, Minato naturally wanted to learn about some of the past events of the Uzumaki clan through her.

He wanted to try to speculate a little!

Kushina fell silent.

There was anger flickering in her eyes, but after pondering for a moment, she let out a sigh.

"I, don't know."

"After all, I came to Konoha halfway, and when I was in the Uzumaki clan, I was just a small child."

"Many things the clansmen wouldn't tell me."

"But actually, I have been thinking about this matter all these years."

"You say the Land of Whirlpools is right next to Konoha, and it was a staunch ally of Konoha; why didn't Konoha want to help the Land of Whirlpools back then?"

"If they didn't have the ability, that would be one thing, but from what I understand in Konoha, Konoha actually had that ability."

"Just like now!"

"Even if the Konoha Sannin are not here, even if the White Fang of Konoha is dead, they still face the four great ninja villages head-on."

"Why couldn't they do it back then?"

"But what I can tell you is that when I was in the Land of Whirlpools, I did secretly see my grandfather and the others secretly dispersing some of the Uzumaki clansmen."

"And before dispersing them, they explicitly told them that they must never go to the Land of Fire."

"And also... that is."

"When I first arrived in Konoha, I was raised in Mito-sama's house."

"Back then, I often saw Mito-sama sighing and lamenting at night."

"Especially after Nawaki died on the battlefield and Tsunade-sama often drank, at first Mito-sama kept persuading Tsunade, hoping Tsunade-sama could shoulder the Senju clan."

"From this point of view, at least at that time, the Senju clan did not have the intention of dissolving and completely merging into Konoha."

"However, later!"

"Tsunade-sama drank more and more, and gambled every day; after Mito-sama's persuasion had no effect..."

"About a few months later, Mito-sama suddenly announced that she hoped to dissolve the Senju clan, and even said this was Tobirama-sama's decision."

"I didn't feel anything was wrong before, but now hearing you say this, I instantly felt something was wrong."

The more she spoke.

Kushina's face became increasingly gloomy.

Namikaze Minato's face darkened slightly.

He could not believe Uchiha Jin's words, but now even his own wife was saying this.

Especially at this time, he also thought of the unusual things he had experienced before.

He didn't think much of them before, but now, changing his perspective, he instantly felt something was wrong.

Now.

He was confused!

Could Uchiha Jin be right?

Then what did his efforts over these years, and even his goal of becoming Hokage, count for?

Thinking of this, he felt a bit decadent.

Even the goal of becoming Hokage felt meaningless.

After all.

According to Jin's words, he didn't need to work hard at all to become Hokage.

But, at the same time.

As this Hokage, he would never be able to do anything.

Once he wanted to do something, Sarutobi Hiruzen would definitely be the first to not let him off!

"Minato, what's wrong with you?" Kushina said helplessly: "I am the one whose clan was destroyed and I'm not angry yet, why are you looking so decadent?"

Minato smiled bitterly.

He didn't hesitate.

He immediately told her Jin's prediction, and then said with a bitter face.

"You know, my goal is to be Hokage."

"But now someone tells me that I don't need to work hard at all to automatically sit in the Hokage seat."

"But, at the same time."

"This Hokage of mine would be a puppet, and I would never be able to do things my own way for the rest of my life."

"If that's really the case, then why should I be this Hokage?"

"It would be better to just give up and rot!"

Namikaze Minato sighed.

Yes.

He now really felt a sense of powerlessness, and even felt that everything didn't matter.

Even, at this moment.

He even vaguely understood why the Nara clan and Uchiha Jin were always so lazy.

Knowing too much, but unable to change anything.

If you don't rot, what else can you do?
