Summer evening sky

Chapter 4 The Legacy of 4 Generations

When Naruto woke up, he was lying on the solid ground of the square, beside him sat a silver-haired unscrupulous Jōnin holding a book of 18 forbidden novels.

"Ah, are you awake?" Kakashi never took his eyes off the book in his hand, but he could feel Naruto's eyes open.

Naruto struggled to get up, and unexpectedly found that the piece he was lying on had been carefully tidied up. A warm current surged in his heart, and he looked around again: "Eh? Where are the things?"

"Well, I took it out after you fainted, it's just a scroll, and I put it in your backpack."

Naruto breathed a sigh of relief, ah, this task is really too difficult!If what father left behind can't make up for the fright he suffered this time, Uncle Uzumaki Naruto will not forgive him!

Taking out the scroll tied with the red string from the backpack, Naruto hesitated again, this time there won't be anything else. . . . . .The searching gaze turned to Kakashi, as if he had seen through his mind, Kakashi said leisurely: "Don't look at me, I haven't opened it before, what Minato-sensei left for you, it's better for you to open it yourself!"

Naruto narrowed his eyes, puffed his cheeks and said "oh", took a deep breath, calmed down, and began to untie the rope on the scroll with trembling hands.Kakashi on one side also raised his head from the book and looked over here.

The scroll slowly unfolded, and a white light suddenly burst out, making the two of them squint their eyes involuntarily, and only heard a gentle voice softly ringing in their ears in a trance.

"Naruto."

The voice was very soft and gentle, falling into the ears of Kakashi and Naruto, but it seemed to be hitting the softest place in the bottom of my heart. For a moment, it seemed like a lifetime away.

The white light gradually faded away, and a slightly illusory golden figure appeared in front of him, with a face almost like Naruto's, the same golden hair, the same blue eyes, and the same gentle smile as before.Naruto looked at the man in front of him, his blue eyes suddenly became misty. After the war, before he had time to have a good talk with him, he had to accept separation. How many times did he pray to hear this gentle voice again? , has it finally come true?

"father!"

Sobbing and screaming, Naruto wiped away the tears that fell down his face at some point, and tried to smile.

The golden figure walked up to Naruto, gently rubbed the boy's somewhat disheveled blond hair, and then turned to Kakashi who was sluggish: "Long time no see, Kakashi!"

Kakashi, who woke up, shook his shoulders, and "Intimacy Tactics" fell from his hands at some point. Kakashi couldn't care less, and immediately straightened his stomach and straightened his chest: "Yes, teacher, long time no see!" For many years, Kakashi's respect for Minato-sensei has never diminished by half, "But, how could the teacher..."

"I knew you would come with Naruto!" Minato smiled with satisfaction, "Thank you, Kakashi, for always helping me take care of Naruto."

Kakashi touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "No..."

Naruto jumped out unconvinced: "What! Dad, Mr. Kakashi has been bullying me, how can he take care of me!" The childish expression made Minato laugh out loud, and Kakashi was embarrassed And stood helplessly, not knowing what to say.

"What you are seeing is the virtual image of the Chakra that I sealed in the scroll. I don't have much time, so I'll pick the important ones." Minato put away her smile, took the half-opened scroll from Naruto's hand, and said sternly , "This scroll has the ability to travel through time and space."

Minato's words successfully put Kakashi and Naruto into a state of panic again. There was silence in the square. Kakashi felt that his heartbeat was still. After a while, he came back to his senses and stared at the serious-looking man in disbelief. Minato, seemed to want to find evidence of mischief on Minato's face: "Travel through time and space!? Hahaha, is this a joke? Teacher Minato?"

"Kakashi, do you think that I took great pains to leave this scroll and my own chakra just to play a joke on you?" Minato sighed, turning to Naruto who was still in a state of shock, as if he knew this beforehand. "This is a space-time ninjutsu, named 'Virtual', which is listed as an 'absolute forbidden technique'. You should know that no matter what kind of time-space ninjutsu is risky, let alone this kind of time-traveling ninjutsu. A forbidden technique, no one can predict what will happen after performing this ninja.”

"Then why did Dad leave it to me? Since it is an 'absolute forbidden technique', there is no need to practice it!" Naruto woke up, frowning and looking at Minato, but there was something different in his eyes s things.

"Ah, yes, why keep it? Forbidden ninjutsu should not be brought out." Minato's beautiful brows were full of helplessness, "But what can be done? At that time... . . ”

Naruto and Kakashi looked at each other, looking at Minato with his head lowered, with doubts and puzzles on his face.

After a while, Minato raised his head again, looked at the two people in front of him, and sighed: "Well, in a word, I didn't mean to leave this scroll, it was a person who is very important to me who asked me to do so , otherwise, I would rather be taken to hell by the ghoul than leave it behind."

"Eh? Very important person, is he a lecherous fairy?" Naruto looked at his father with wide eyes, and the cute expression of confusion made Minato couldn't help but want to pinch him.

"No, it's not Jiraiya-sensei. Well, I can't explain it clearly to you now, but you will know in the future." Minato cheered up, looked at Naruto solemnly, and returned the scroll to Naruto, "In short Naruto, this scroll belongs to you from now on, and of course it also belongs to Konoha. Whether you want to use it or not is entirely up to you. However, Dad still wants to give you a last word of advice, although it is said that parents only need to trust their children , but this time, I hope you can make a decision after serious discussions with Kakashi."

The scroll was heavy, and all the past that had been accumulated by time was sealed in it. Naruto couldn't bear it.

The short meeting with Minato was soon over, and the task was successfully completed. On the way back to the village, Naruto kept his head down and only focused on moving forward, without saying a word.Kakashi put away "Intimacy Tactics" for the first time, and followed the silent Naruto step by step.Thinking back on every word Minato said, Naruto's nose couldn't help but feel a little panting.Dad's time is always so precious, and every time I don't even want to give him the time to listen to him.

Yes, he was never willing to listen to his confidant, whether he was happy, disappointed or complaining, or he had 18 years of longing in his heart.So he left this scroll?In order to give the family relationship that has solidified before it can bloom in the future a chance to bloom again.
