The fifth day after the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
Uchiha Makoto was finally approved to be discharged from the hospital.
And Namikaze Minato was temporarily discharged from the hospital after making many guarantees to Uzumaki Kushina.
Originally, according to the original schedule, Namikaze Minato had to rest in the hospital for half a month.
The main reason why Namikaze Minato was discharged from the hospital was to hold a high-level meeting.
After the meeting, he still had to go back to the hospital to recuperate.
After all, he was only 24 years old and at his peak as a ninja. If he didn't do a careful examination and take good care of himself, he would be in trouble if he had hidden injuries.
Especially since Namikaze Minato was born as a commoner and had no special bloodline, his physical fitness could only be considered normal.
If his superhuman reflexes were affected because he was not fully recuperated after being injured, then there would be a big problem.
In addition, all the Jonin in the village knew that Namikaze Minato was not serious, and the news spread throughout Konoha.
However, most of the ninjas and villagers were not at ease when they did not see Minato Namikaze alive and kicking in front of them.
Some people even spontaneously gathered in front of Konoha Hospital.
Namikaze Minato became the Fourth Hokage for less than a year.
However, he issued many government decrees, such as lowering taxes; allowing vendors to set up stalls on non-main roads; and increasing funding for welfare homes and ninja schools, which brought tangible benefits to the lower-level ninjas and villagers.
The Nine-Tails rebellion was also sealed outside the village by the Fourth Hokage himself.
Namikaze Minato had already won the hearts of the people.
"Yondaime-sama! Are you really okay?"
"Master Yondaime! We are relieved to see that you are okay!"
"Yondaime-sama! Why is your hand injured? Is it serious?"
"Fourth Generation Sir, I have ancestral ointment here. You..."
At the request of the Sandaime and others, Namikaze Minato took a long detour on the main road before going to the Hokage Building, with Uchiha Makoto following behind him.
Facing the villagers who gathered around him, Namikaze Minato smiled and waved to them.
When someone asked about his bandaged left hand, Namikaze Minato scratched his head and smiled:
"I can't say it's okay. The Kyuubi is indeed very powerful. Look! My left hand was broken trying to seal it!"
I wonder if Namikaze Minato just made a joke just to reassure everyone.
"Yes! If you can hurt your left hand, Yondaime-sama, you can blow the Kyuubi for a hundred years!"
"That's it! That's it!"
The villagers who were originally worried about Namikaze Minato were relieved when they saw that he was still in the mood to joke.
The main road is full of cheerful atmosphere.
If it were the Third Hokage, the villagers would respect him equally, but they would not dare to joke with him like this.
Uchiha Makoto couldn't help but slow down when he heard this.
It wasn't that he couldn't stand Namikaze Minato filling the cup, but he knew that with Namikaze Minato's character, this sentence was a joke at most, just to reassure everyone.
But Kyuubi doesn’t know!
"He told you! You have the ability to beat him! Why are you torturing me?" Uchiha Makoto muttered in a low voice, rubbing his lower abdomen that had been extremely hot since just now.
However, just as he finished complaining, the heat in his lower abdomen became even higher, like holding a hot water bottle in his arms in the summer. The burning sensation made him feel uncomfortable.
In fact, with Namikaze Minato's Bagua seal pressing down, and Uzumaki Kushina's King Kong sealing the chakra, the best the Kyuubi can do now is this.
But this is so frustrating!
Uchiha Makoto had to gather his chakra in his abdomen to suppress Kyuubi's chakra.
When he was more than ten meters away from Namikaze Minato, the Kyuubi's chakra gradually calmed down.
"Makoto? Why are you so far away from me?" Namikaze Minato, who was walking halfway, found that Uchiha Makoto was not beside him. He was stunned for a moment. When he looked back, he realized that Uchiha Makoto was following him from a distance.
"Nothing, Minato-senpai, you go first." Uchiha Makoto showed an awkward yet polite smile on his face.
Seeing this, Namikaze Minato stopped and waited for him, saying, "You played a major role in sealing the Nine Tails. Why are you so humble?"
In fact, Namikaze Minato was also made a little uncomfortable by the villagers' enthusiasm.
After all, he is a married man, so it doesn't matter if men surround him. Many young girls and young women have come over, and some bold widows are ogling him while leaning on him. If Kushina knows this Yes, that would be troublesome.
So he was very unloyal and let Uchiha Makoto attract firepower.
As a man who is about half as handsome as the Fourth Hokage, Uchiha Makoto is unmarried and only 16 years old, so he is naturally more popular.
As soon as Namikaze Minato finished speaking, most of the women surrounding him immediately separated and came to Uchiha Makoto.
"Sir Cheng! Do you have a girlfriend?" The person who spoke was a girl dressed in a gorgeous dress, but the clothes on her chest were a bit too big.
"Brother Makoto, is the Kyuubi really that strong? It can hurt the Yondaime-sama's arm!" The person who asked this question was a 4-year-old girl, who was holding Uchiha Makoto's thigh tightly.
"You are Makoto of the Uchiha clan, I remember you! Kazusa and you were classmates, don't you remember? I am her mother."
The person who spoke was a charming and mature woman. Uchiha Makoto remembered that she was the wife of Lonicera Ren in the village.
Although the fragrance was blowing from the tip of my nose and both arms were hugged, it was a little bit satisfying, but after doing this, Kyuubi went crazy again!
Uchiha Makoto gently freed his arm, then flashed a teleportation jutsu and rushed out of the crowd.
Seeing this, Namikaze Minato waved goodbye to everyone, and then used the Flying Thunder God Technique to transfer.
...
Outside the Hokage Building, Uchiha Makoto followed Namikaze Minato upstairs, wiping the saliva and lipstick marks on his face.
Could it be that he doesn't look majestic at all? He clearly has a stern face, which means don't let strangers in. Why are these people not afraid of him?
Sure enough, boys must protect themselves outside, that’s true!
Seeing Uchiha Makoto like this, Namikaze Minato also smiled and joked a few words with him.
But when they walked outside the conference room hall next to the Hokage's office, their expressions suddenly became serious.
"Minato-senpai, starting from today, many of your ambitions will come true!"
"Cheng! Thanks for your help!"
"Minato-senpai, given our relationship, there is no need to be so polite. We are mutually successful."
"This is our first step in changing the ninja world."
Namikaze Minato stretched out his fist.
Uchiha Makoto bumped into him, and then pushed open the door of the conference room. Minato Namikaze entered first, followed closely by him.
At this time, the conference room was full of people.
Just two of them.
Namikaze Minato came to the main seat and sat down.
On his left were the Third Hokage, Shimura Danzo, Mito Kadoen, Koharu Tenden, Hinata Hizashi, and some jounin from middle-ranking families in the village;
The ones on the right are Jiraiya, Uchiha Fugaku, and the clan leaders of the three Inokacho clans, as well as jounin from small families and civilians.
There was still an empty seat where Uchiha Fugaku was sitting. After Minato Namikaze sat down, he gave Uchiha Makoto a look.
Upon seeing this, Uchiha Makoto sat next to Uchiha Fugaku with a calm expression.
His position is still above the three families of Zhu, Deer and Die.
However, everyone present was basically not dissatisfied with Uchiha Makoto's high status at such a young age.
Although Uchiha Makoto is young and inexperienced, he has great military achievements and is already the top jounin in the village at the age of 16.
Moreover, they already knew roughly the process of the Nine-Tails Rebellion.
Uchiha Makoto helped the Fourth Hokage seal the Nine-Tails and prevented the village from suffering huge losses. Today he is qualified to sit in this seat.
Danzo looked at this seat and had a bad feeling in his heart.
When the fourth generation first took over as Hokage, in high-level meetings, the third generation usually sat with their three advisors, and it was the same today.
Except for a few of their advisors, the seats were not absolutely fixed.
On their side, the Hyuga clan has remained neutral since the third generation abdicated, so there is no difference.
But today, the positions of others have changed, especially the clan leaders of the three pig, deer and butterfly tribes have gone to the opposite side.
Danzo felt bad.
After receiving the signal from Namikaze Minato, Nara Shikaku said: "The meeting begins!"
"Shikaku, after the Kyuubi was sealed, have the casualties and property losses of the village been calculated in this battle?" Namikaze Minato asked.
"Yes! Yondaime-sama!" Nara Shikaku nodded, stood up and said:
"This Nine-Tails Rebellion caused a total of 12 serious injuries, 60 minor injuries, and 8 Anbu were killed outside the barrier of Kushina-sama's production point.
The wall on the west side of the village collapsed about 40 meters in length, 5 houses collapsed, and 31 houses were damaged.
The damaged area of farmland near the village was relatively large, about 210 acres.
In addition, among the 12 people seriously injured, 3 were civilians and the other 9 were from the Uchiha clan. They were hit by flying rocks while escorting the villagers to the underground shelter. "
At the end, Nara Shikaku added one more sentence.
Everyone present was shocked.
It’s not that the loss is too big, it’s that it’s too small!
Beyond their imagination.
After all, everyone here has been on the battlefield. In any small-scale battle, there will be more than so many casualties.
Especially when the strongest tailed beast Nine Tails was released, such a loss was completely a blessing in misfortune.
