On the day of the 3rd Hokage's funeral, the sky was dark, and it was raining mournfully.
In the previous catastrophe, Konoha was reduced to ruins. On the mountain wall of the Hokage Rock, the statue of the Fifth Hokage has not yet been built, but the statue of the Fourth Hokage has been destroyed.
In a temporary clearing, there was a coffin with a photo of Sarutobi on it.
Ninjas and people, wearing black mourning clothes and white flowers on their chests, stood solemnly in the rain on both sides of the road, expressing their grief.
The son of the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Asuma, stood in front of the coffin.
Asuma was the second son of the third generation. His eldest son was named Sarutobi Shizutobi Shizutobi Shizutobi Shizutobi Shizutobi Shizutobi Shizutobi.
In the Manga, he still couldn't escape the fate of death. In this Konoha Havoc, he died.
His wife, the daughter-in-law of the 3rd Hokage, had to take care of the newborn Konohamaru, so she did not attend the funeral.
The Fifth Hokage, Hatake Kakashi, personally offered the first incense, and then the major clans of Konoha sent their representatives to offer incense to the Third Hokage, and then the Jonin of Konoha …
Many people had lost their loved ones in this calamity.
It was Kurenai Hong's turn to offer incense.
She walked out of the rain and put her palms together for a long time. Her father, Sunset Red, had also died in this calamity.
Asuma looked at the red in front of him. "Red, it's about time. The rain is heavy …"
"Feather, big?" Red murmured.
"Yes, it's raining heavily. Don't get wet …" Asuma said.
"Feather is too big. Lin is broken …" Red murmured in a daze.
"Red?" Asuma frowned.
"Red!" Kakashi placed his hand on Kurenai's shoulder. "It's time for the next one …"
"Got it." Red quietly retreated and clenched her fists. 'Perhaps, the one who's broken isn't Lin, but me …'
The funeral proceeded methodically in an atmosphere of sadness and solemnity.
After the Jonin finished burning the incense, the Chunin, Genin, and the people bowed one after another … The funeral process was nearing its end.
Kakashi was ready to announce the lifting of the coffin.
"Please wait a moment, let me offer you a joss stick!" At this moment, a haggard voice sounded. Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and Kakashi's eyes widened. "T-Teacher …"
Tsunade: "Kushina!"
Xiao Ying exclaimed, "Naruto?!"
In the distance, three figures walked out from the rain. They were all dressed in solemn black clothes and wore white flowers.
Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato, Fourth Madame Uzumaki Kushina, and Fourth Son Uzumaki Naruto!
Minato's face was pale, his lips were pale, and his whole body was thin. He even needed Kushina's help to walk. It was hard to believe that this was the man who was once called the Yellow Flash, the man who made Konoha tremble in fear!
At first, the funeral fell into complete silence. Then, there was an uproar!
"The Fourth Hokage is still alive, and so is the Kyuubi's Jinchuriki!!"
"What's going on? Aren't they both dead?"
"Sure enough, they ran for their lives!!"
Konoha previously announced that the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato didn't leave his post, but he found the enemy, fought with them, and unfortunately died.
Outsiders don't believe it, but Konoha's people generally believed that it was to preserve the dignity of the Fourth Hokage!
Therefore, in the hearts of almost all Konoha's ninjas, the Fourth Hokage was a deserter!
After people recovered from the surprise that the couple was still alive, the atmosphere suddenly changed!
Almost everyone present had lost their homes and loved ones in this catastrophe. The hatred and anger in their hearts had nowhere to be vented. The appearance of the Minato family had provided them with an outlet to vent their anger!
"Namikaze Minato, you shameless, deserter, trash, scum of Konoha, you don't deserve to be called the Hokage!!" In the crowd, no one knew who made a roar.
Then, the emotions of the crowd seemed to be ignited!!!
"Namikaze dog! You're the one who killed my son!! "
"You caused me to lose my home, pay with your life!!!"
"You murderer!!!"
More vicious words were directed at Kushina and Naruto.
"Kyuubi's incarnation, devil, bitch, sinner!"
"Little bastard! Little Kyuubi! Go to hell! "
"This family of three is really shameless, how dare they come back!!"
"Look at what the Third Hokage did!! Why didn't you sacrifice for Konoha!! Why didn't you die in battle!!! "
The anger of the people was getting more and more out of control.
Hatake Kakashi made a hand seal!
Crack! Two thunder belts blocked the road on both sides, making people unable to go forward …
But they were unwilling, and when Minato's family passed by, they spat on them.
Whether it was Minato, Kushina, or Naruto, their faces, bodies, and hair were covered with saliva, but the three of them didn't say a word and walked forward silently.
Kushina couldn't hide the sadness in her eyes, and she grabbed Minato's shoulder.
Minato felt the change in his wife's mood and apologized: "Kushina, I'm sorry, I let you suffer with me."
As he said that, a spit on Minato's face.
Kushina gently shook her head and said without regret: "It will pass …"
Crack! An egg flew out of nowhere and hit Kushina's head. The yellow liquid from the egg stained her long red hair.
Minato and Kushina were fine, but Naruto was surprisingly calm in the face of this scene. His black and blue eyes were looking into the distance.
"Originally, everyone used to flatter me because I was the son of the Fourth Hokage, but now, my father is not the Hokage, but a sinner, and I have become the son of a sinner …"
"But a hero must always be a hero? Once I fail to be a hero, will I be treated worse than a bear? Uncle Anbu, Yuki, I think they are wrong, so I must become the Hokage, and change this twisted idea that heroes must bleed … "
On this short road, Naruto thought about a lot of things, even more than the amount of saliva on his body …
In the crowd, Sakura looked at Naruto with a complicated expression.
"Sakura, that blonde boy, is he your former teammate?" The person next to Sakura asked meaningfully.
"No, no, you remember wrong, I don't know that guy!" Sakura shook her head and thought: I'm sorry Naruto, if I don't distance myself from you, I don't know what will happen in the future …
In the crowd, Konoha's consultant, Mito Homura, and Utatane Koharu.
"Although I'm sorry to Yondaime, it was right to inform him of the funeral time."
"Yes, after this disaster, the people's depressed emotions need a place to vent. If they don't vent, it will be bad for the village's long-term stability. Since he is still alive, he has to bear the responsibility of being alive …"
"And … this will also divert the public's attention, Konoha is at a critical juncture, how can they spare the energy to take revenge on the Rock?"
"Raising funds for the reconstruction is also a problem, the Daimyo … think that it's our own fault, and they don't want to provide financial assistance."
Minato's family of three walked through the crowd and came to the Sandaime's coffin.
Kakashi looked at his former teacher's eyes, complicated and sad, but there was also a trace of joy: Sensei, you are still alive … That's great.
"Kakashi, can you give me an incense stick?" Minato said calmly.
"Ah, of course." Kakashi solemnly handed the incense stick to Yondaime.
After Yondaime's family finished, Minato said to Kakashi: "Kakashi, congratulations on becoming the Fifth Hokage, learn from Sensei's failure, and become a greater Hokage than the previous generations!"
"Yes, I will." Kakashi clenched his fist and said in his heart: No matter what others think, in my heart, you are the greatest Hokage!
As the saying goes, only the person who drinks the water knows the temperature!
On the top of the mountain in the distance, Lin Yu and Jiraiya stood side by side, silently looking at the scene below.
"Jiraiya, as Minato's Sensei and the one who experienced this incident, aren't you going to stand up for your disciple?" Lin Yu asked Jiraiya.
"The first half of Minato's life has been far too smooth. If we let him experience some setbacks, he might be able to go further. Besides …" Jiraiya paused and turned to look at Lin Yu, "What the world needs isn't a Hokage … but a savior, right?"
