[Forgive him?]
[Perhaps this will be a great help in the future.]
[It's just... Naruto doesn't seem to need this kind of help very much.]
[Naruto felt a bit strange.]
[He had originally thought he would be angry or sad.]
[But he seemed very calm.]
[How Minato Namikaze answered didn't seem to matter much to him.]
[In fact, the moment Naruto saw Minato Namikaze,]
[many things were already settled.]
[To say that he cared much about Minato Namikaze at this moment,]
[and that this act was merely revenge,]
[would be wrong.]
[Rather, at this moment, Naruto was more concerned about whether he would see Uzumaki Kushina after tearing off this first layer of sealing paper.]
[That was the most important thing.]
[Just now, Naruto simply felt that if he didn't ask or care about anything, it would seem too cold-blooded.]
[And it just so happened that he got some information that could be verified immediately.]
[His mother, Uzumaki Kushina, also left Chakra behind, and he would be able to see her immediately as long as he continued to tear off the sealing paper.]
[Naruto was a little excited, and at the same time, a little nervous.]
[He was not a god; he couldn't know everything and never make mistakes.]
[If his mother was also like Minato Namikaze...]
[That's fine, then maybe he could also find peace.]
"No!"
"Mom wouldn't be like that!"
Kushina roared, her eyes red.
In reality,
Kushina had been thinking.
What would happen if the Chakra she left behind met Black-Framed Naruto?
And... what would happen if it met this world's Naruto?
For this world's Naruto, she seemed to quickly find the answer.
She even foresaw that crying boy.
Everything seemed beautiful.
She would also numb herself with this.
But at this moment, seeing everything on the black-framed large screen,
she felt that it should be this way.
Right now, Kushina had no other thoughts besides feeling heartbroken for Naruto.
But she was also very calm.
She didn't want to say anything more to Minato Namikaze.
Let it be.
No matter what, Minato Namikaze also died in a lovers' suicide.
Naruto could say it, others could say it.
She might also be able to say it... but it seemed she couldn't.
It didn't matter, Kushina believed that her primary identity now was Uzumaki Naruto's mother; everything else came after.
It was messy.
Uchiha Mikoto looked at Kushina and shook her head with some heartache.
She had to overcome this hurdle herself.
She couldn't guess what would happen to the Kushina in the black frame world.
But it seemed she would be better off than this world's Kushina.
["Naruto, what exactly do you want to say?!"]
[Seeing that the sealing paper had also begun to be torn off,]
[Minato Namikaze was truly anxious.]
["Shut up!" the Great Fox roared.]
[Instantly, it shook Minato Namikaze's entire body.]
[However, Naruto still stopped his movements, turned to look at him, and said somewhat strangely:]
["For peace?"]
["But I'm a bit selfish."]
["For the future peace of my family."]
[Naruto smiled and said, "I think my mother should also have the right to know everything."]
["Don't worry, I won't distort anything; I'll only tell the truth, just like you answered my question just now."]
["Besides... there are many things I'll need to ask Mom for help with later."]
["I don't want Mom to be too affected."]
[Boom—]
[Minato Namikaze's pupils contracted violently.]
[He seemed to realize something.]
[This son of his seemed to know many, many things.]
[Let Kushina know everything?]
[Could it be...]
[Minato's heart was about to leap out.]
[He couldn't say it!]
[If he did... Kushina would definitely not be able to accept it!]
[Unfortunately, as soon as Minato Namikaze opened his mouth, he was again restrained by another force.]
[All the words he was about to say were stuck in his throat.]
[Seeing this, Naruto raised an eyebrow, also becoming interested.]
["You seem to know what I'm going to say."]
["You... seem to have known this for a long time too."]
["And, you haven't told Mom all these years, have you?"]
[Just as Naruto expected.]
["So, my guess was right."]
["Mom was the Uzumaki Seed specially left behind back then... No, it should be said, she was the predetermined next Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."]
["Otherwise, how could there still be survivors in the Land of Whirlpools under the combined forces of the Five Great Ninja Villages?"]
[After seeing the beastly Uchiha Obito's massacre on the Clan Massacre Night, Naruto wasn't too surprised by the complete destruction of a large clan or country overnight.]
[If the Land of Whirlpools was in the same situation as Uchiha Obito massacring the Konoha Military Police Force back then, that is, if powerful Ninja trusted by the Land of Whirlpools's Ninja suddenly attacked... it would indeed be very simple.]
[And in that situation, hiding underground would be useless.]
[Because the other executioner understood the Uchiha well, it could probably guess where people could hide, and it would drag out and kill everyone, regardless of age or gender, even if they hid in underground shelters.]
[Minato Namikaze's face changed.]
[Naruto's lips curved slightly.]
[He was right.]
[Good, then let's confirm it first.]
["Tsunade brought Mom back to Konoha."]
["And then... the treatment Mom received back then... No, it should be said, everything I've suffered these years is based on the treatment Mom received back then."]
["Based on that, it was constantly adjusted upwards."]
["If I were dumber, maybe those Old Things would have succeeded."]
["Because Mom didn't break down back then."]
["So, it's naturally hard for me to break down, even if the difficulty was increased, but... since I can remember, I've been indoctrinated with your beloved Will of Fire."]
[Minato Namikaze's whole body stiffened, as if struck by lightning.]
["Hiding her identity for safety?"]
["That's hilarious."]
["If I'm not mistaken, Mom has red hair, right?"]
["Oh, and I have blond hair, can that also be considered hiding my identity?"]
["You clearly know how this Village is... Forget it, it doesn't matter."]
["The First Hokage's wife, Uzumaki Mito, was old and frail."]
["The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was basically already confirmed."]
["Yet Konoha allowed Kumogakure Ninja to enter and abduct Mom."]
["Those Kumogakure Ninja must have been at least Konohas White Fang level, right?"]
["Otherwise, they would have been discovered before even entering."]
[Naruto kept an eye on Minato Namikaze.]
[The moment Kumogakure Ninja were mentioned, Minato Namikaze's face turned pale.]
['He guessed right again.']
[The Great Fox, meanwhile, stood behind, arms crossed, watching Minato Namikaze with a look of amusement.]
[Hmph! You got what was coming to you today!]
[To be honest, there were only two people the Great Fox hated the most.]
[Uchiha Madara and Minato Namikaze.]
[One treated it like a beast to be controlled.]
[The other split it in half.]
[Of course, there were many people it feared...]
