"Is it Obito, Lin, and those children that make you worried?"
The whispers that came to his ears seemed to contain a deep sense of concern, which brought Minato back to his senses. He subconsciously raised his head and glanced around, only to find that he had arrived at the familiar corridor of the Hokage Building without knowing it.
After a moment of silence, Minato did not look at Kushina, but forced a smile and said:
"That's not the case. It's a good thing to develop armaments to make the village stronger and the Fire Country stronger. What's more, didn't you hear what Lin said?"
"The reason why she sells those things is just to let her companions use better equipment, to reduce sacrifices, and to give the country and the village a complete victory."
"Isn't this will, this idea of protecting my companions and the village, the embodiment of the will of fire? What do I have to worry about?"
Minato explained a lot. What Minato wanted to explain was that he thought Rin and Obito's behavior was normal, but was it necessary to say so much?
"Do you really think that's the Will of Fire?"
For some unknown reason, Kushina suddenly asked such a question, and Minato fell into silence for the second time. He didn't know how to answer. Could it be that the Will of Fire was deliberately misinterpreted by some thoughtful people?
?
Is it used to fool children who have not yet formed their sense of right and wrong?
Konoha was founded by the first Hokage, and the will of fire passed down to the third Hokage was to make all the ninja clan work together to safeguard the interests of Konoha. The concept of companions has therefore been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and has gradually become the name of Konoha ninja.
Village faith.
But now, something happened that even the first Hokage had not expected. Konoha and the country gradually integrated into one, and a new type of capitalist ideology began to subtly invade Konoha, invisibly changing the minds of many people.
Protecting your companions is equivalent to providing an efficient killing tool?
Protecting the village is tantamount to invading other countries?
Being united means treating all foreign ninjas and different social systems as heretics? Like enemy bandits?
If we say that the original will of fire was to make the fire shine on the village and protect the new leaves from growing vigorously.
So the current will of fire is equivalent to a spark, a prairie fire, eager to ignite all the new leaves.
And then, burn the whole world to ashes.
Who is it that distorts the will of fire, confuses these extreme ideas with the will of fire, and then combines them all with the capitalist system, with various emerging arms industries, and even with patriotism, as a way to improve national military mobilization?
Brainwashing method of ability?
The answer seems to be self-evident.
There were three clicks, and Minato knocked on the door of the Hokage's office. After getting a response from a female voice, he turned the door handle and stepped in.
In the end, he did not answer Kushina's question.
Just because, no matter what he thinks, Konoha and the Land of Fire will only move in a fixed direction. What does the Will of Fire look like? Does anyone care now?
"Ah, Minato, Kushina, you are back."
The woman sitting behind the desk was wearing a black women's suit, which gave her the look of an urban beauty, but paired with black square-framed glasses, it added a bit of majesty to that pretty face.
Only a little haggardness showed in his eyes.
Nonoyu, acting as Hokage, has been in office for more than a year.
"Yes, Miss Nonoyu."
First, he said hello to Nonou. Minato was about to ask where his teacher was, but unexpectedly, Nonou's next words made him froze:
"Minato, from now on, you are the acting Hokage."
"Also, this is an order."
After saying these two faint instructions, Nonoyu seemed to hate this place extremely. He picked up the shoulder bag on the table, walked around the desk in less than half a second, and walked quickly towards the door.
"Wait, wait, Miss Nonoyu!"
"How is this going?"
No matter how quick Minato's reaction speed was, when he suddenly heard the appointment, he was still so shocked that he couldn't react for a few seconds. It wasn't until Nonoyu was about to step out of the door that he subconsciously reached out and grabbed the latter to prevent him from accidentally letting this person know.
The former acting Hokage slipped away.
He glanced back at Minato and Kushina, and saw that the former had an anxious look on his face and the latter still had a dumbfounded look on his face. Nonoyu smiled slightly, the smile was somewhat forced:
"Minato, don't you also dream of becoming Hokage? I have already prepared the corresponding greetings. As long as you walk over and sit behind that desk, everything in Konoha will be under your control."
"Now, can you let me go?"
His shoulders were slightly strengthened, but he did not break away from Minato's hand holding his arm. Nono Umei frowned, and his eyes gradually turned cold when looking at Minato.
Under Nonou's gaze, Minato suddenly felt a little numb on his scalp. Even though they were very different in strength, this did not affect his respect for Nonou, the Hokage-sama who had been handling the Hokage's work all year round.
.
"Miss Nonoyu, was this appointment made by the teacher?"
Bite the bullet, Minato mustered up the courage to raise his head and look at Nonoyu, but found that the other party had casually stretched out his fingers to smooth his hair, and replied casually:
"I appointed it, isn't it okay?"
It has to be said that Nonoyu behaves differently at this moment than ever before, like a leader who was originally extremely sane and suddenly turned into a free and carefree woman who is willful and willful.
Minato was obviously not used to Nonou's state. He didn't dare to sit in the Hokage's seat without receiving clear instructions from the teacher, or in other words, without the appointment document written by Lei Luo presented by Nonou.
This is inconsistent with the process and...
It may very well become a stain for some people to attack him.
Seemingly seeing what Minato was thinking, and understanding Minato's attitude even though he didn't hear the answer, Nonoyu gently adjusted his glasses and calmly twitched his arm again, but as expected, it remained motionless.
All right……
In desperation, Nonoyu had no choice but to soften his expression and try his best to speak in a gentle tone: "Minato, you and I are both witnesses of the Mizukage mission. It has been more than ten years since we followed Lei Luo until today.
?”
Seeing Minato nod, Nonoyu said again:
"Then you will do your sister a favor this time, help me manage Konoha for a while, and let her go to the capital to deal with an urgent matter, okay?"
"I've really been holding this in for a long, long time."
When he said these words, Nonoyu's face was sincere and his tone was extremely soft. Minato felt a little relieved, and at the same time he also realized that this might be Nonoyu's private matter, and it was probably related to the teacher.
Nonoyu can indeed be regarded as his sister, and she has taken care of him and Kushina for so many years. Minato thought for a moment, and did not ask what Nonoyu was going to do in the capital, but turned slightly and glanced at the desk:
"Sister Nonoyu, how long will it take for you to come back?"
