Chapter 35: Orochimaru
Hearing their words, the three people present all fell silent! What is the feeling of personally killing one's closest relative? They would not know, or perhaps they did not want to know!
At this time, only Granny Chiyo was heard saying: "Alright, I still have things to handle, I'm leaving first."
After saying this, she turned and left directly! Perhaps Granny Chiyo really had things to handle, or perhaps she just simply wanted to escape this place, to give herself time to adapt. In any case, Granny Chiyo had already left!
Seeing Granny Chiyo leave, Minato also said goodbye! Ebizo did not try to keep him, only nodded!
After obtaining the information Minato spoke of, Ebizo knew he still had many things to handle! Not long after Minato stepped out of the room, he also followed him out!
After coming out from Ebizo's place, Minato and Baki did not speak, the atmosphere appearing somewhat heavy, but neither of them seemed to notice, just walking straight toward Karura's house!
After a silence lasting about 20 minutes, they finally arrived outside Karura's house. Baki walked forward, wanting to knock on the door, but after thinking about it, he withdrew his hand and asked:
"Do you think we can defeat the Otsutsuki Clan?"
The Fourth Hokage pondered for a moment and said: "I cannot answer this question for you, because even I do not know if I can defeat them. But for the sake of the ninja world, for the sake of the village, and for my family, no matter how difficult it is, I must try."
Baki did not speak, only knocked on the door, but his expression was indeed much more relaxed! The one who came to open the door was still Temari. Seeing the two, she nodded slightly, then invited them in!
At this time, Senju Tsunade had already finished checking Karura's body and was sitting on the sofa drinking tea. Seeing Minato return, she nodded toward him!
Minato looked at the time and said: "It's getting late, we'll head back first! Tomorrow I will come over here with Lady Tsunade again!"
Seeing this time, Karura and Baki originally wanted to keep Minato and Tsunade to stay overnight at their house, but after thinking about it, the two still refused!
Under Tsunade's treatment, Karura's physical condition was significantly better. She just needed to follow the prescription Tsunade gave to recuperate. But just in case, Tsunade would try to find time to come over these next few days to check on her physical condition!
As for staying here, forget it! Gaara existed as the village's Jinchuriki, and the Jinchuriki itself was the highest secret of a village. Although the relationship between Konoha and the Sand Village was good now, some things still needed to be avoided!
As for Minato and Tsunade appearing so high-profile in the Sand Village, for one, Rasa was not in the Sand Village, and most of the other high-level officials were reborn people; they knew very well the purpose of Minato and Tsunade's visit! After all, there were not many fools who could reach high-level positions! Therefore, they would be very happy to help Minato suppress this matter. Secondly, they wanted to let the reborn people in the Sand Village who did not go to the battlefield know that besides the Sand Village, there were reborn people in other places, and they were not fighting alone!
Now Minato's purpose for coming to the Sand Village was basically achieved! It was time to say goodbye! After giving Karura some precautions, Minato handed the kunai engraved with the Flying Thunder God Seal to Temari and her brother, letting them keep it safe, and then left the Sand Village, using the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to Konoha!
"Your ninjutsu is really convenient!" After arriving in Konoha, Tsunade could not help but sigh! It took her and Minato almost a day to go to the Sand Village, but it only took an instant to return. Minato smiled and did not answer.
This was the first floor of Minato's house. The first floor existed as an emergency shelter, and usually, no one was here. The reason Minato used the Flying Thunder God Technique to fly here was because he was afraid of appearing suddenly and scaring Kushina.
After walking out from the first floor, Minato directly invited Tsunade to stay temporarily at his home. This way, it would be convenient to help take care of Kushina, and it would also be convenient to take her to the Sand Village! Tsunade did not stand on ceremony with Minato and directly agreed!
After the two returned to the second floor, they discovered that Kushina had already rested. Minato simply heated up some food Kushina had left for him and Tsunade, then tidied up the guest room for Tsunade to rest, after which the two went back to their respective rooms!
In the next few days, besides taking Tsunade to the Sand Village to help Karura check her body, Minato did not come to the Sand Village again until she recovered!
And after Tsunade finished with Karura, she began to help Kushina recuperate!
This day, like usual, after Minato got up and prepared breakfast for Kushina and Tsunade, he went out. Not long after leaving the house, he received news from the Anbu, asking him to go find the Third Hokage!
Minato did not hesitate and immediately walked toward the Third Hokage's office. Before long, he arrived at the office. At this time, in the office, besides the Third Hokage and Nara Shikaku, there was also another one of the Sannin, Orochimaru. After Minato entered the room and saw Orochimaru, he was obviously stunned for a moment!
"Long time no see, Minato. You've been well, right?" It was Orochimaru who greeted Minato first!
"Long time no see, Mr. Orochimaru. You..." Minato reacted and just wanted to reply when he was interrupted by a burst of coughing!
"Cough, cough." The Third Hokage coughed, interrupting Minato's words, and said: "Orochimaru just returned to Konoha today. I have already told him about the matters after the Fourth War. As for whether there is a specific way to resurrect Naruto, he said he could only say it after you arrived."
Immediately, everyone's gaze turned toward Orochimaru. Orochimaru was not stage-frightened, only licking his lips with his tongue, and said:
"I have already heard the specific situation from the Third Hokage just now! I can't do anything for the moment. Specifically, I need to study the memory orb left behind by Naruto first to be sure."
Minato nodded, then immediately took out the memory orb and handed it to Orochimaru. Orochimaru did not stand on ceremony and directly accepted it! After accepting it, he said to Minato:
"If possible, I would like a portion of the Nine-Tails' chakra, as well as yours and Kushina's."
Minato nodded and agreed. Immediately, Orochimaru took out the chakra storage device he had researched and handed it to Minato, then retreated to the side!
"The peace talks with the Sand Village have already ended. This is the peace agreement; you can take a look!" Immediately, the Third Hokage took out an agreement and handed it to Minato, saying! ===== CHAPTER 37 =====
