Chapter 296: Chapter 296 Challenge
"Ueee--"
A bright cry of a baby touched everyone's heartstrings, and everyone looked towards the door of the delivery room.
"The baby is finally born, yeah!"
Kushina threw herself on Minato and cheered. She had seen the departure of old lives before, but it was the first time to welcome a new life into this world.
Not only her, but Mikoto and Nawaki also couldn't help but show joy on their faces.
As ninjas, they understand best how fragile life is in this world.
One life after another fell in front of them, and every time they performed a mission, their lives might be threatened.
Therefore, ninjas understand the preciousness of life better than anyone else.
"Squeak--"
The door of the delivery room was pushed back, and a little baby in a nurse's arms was still crying loudly.
Seeing this, Sakumo flashed beside her. At this time, the little guy's face was still wrinkled. He was very small, but only slightly larger than the palm.
When the nurse came to her senses, Sakumo and the others were all around her. Kushina carefully extended her slender index finger, and Mikoto and the others looked at the child in front of them with curiosity.
"Kakashi," Minato murmured in his heart. The crying kid now and the arrogant silver-haired boy in the future were really two different people.
"Is it a boy or a girl? Can I touch his face?" Kushina asked.
"It's a boy." The nurse chuckled and said, "As for whether you can touch it, it depends on the child's father."
Kushina's eyes moved to Sakumo, who smiled and said, "Of course."
After getting permission, she slowly extended her finger and gently tapped the little guy's face.
He was crying loudly, but his crying stopped abruptly and he grinned at Kushina.
"So cute." Kushina smiled.
"Nurse, can we go in now?" Sakumo asked the nurse.
The nurse nodded, and then she followed in with the newborn baby in her arms, and stopped Kushina and the others who were about to follow in.
"Wait here for a while, we will come out soon."
On the bed, Suzuka's face and lips were pale, and her hair soaked with sweat had not yet dried completely.
All her eyes were on the baby in the crib on the left.
Her gentle eyes were full of maternal radiance.
Kushina and the others surrounded the newly born Kakashi like curious babies, looking at the people in front of them, but little Kakashi was not shy at all, his big eyes turned around, looking at the world.
"Sakumo-senpai, have you chosen a name for the child?" Only Minato came to Sakumo and asked.
Hearing this, Suzuka also looked over, and then she and Sakumo looked at each other, and Sakumo looked at Minato again.
"Kakashi, Hatake Kakashi."
Minato smiled immediately.
"Kakashi, what a strange name." Kushina tilted her head and murmured.
Hearing this, Sakumo and his wife laughed awkwardly.
Time flies. In a blink of an eye, nearly two years have passed since the Second Ninja War that affected the world.
The normal order between the major ninja countries has also been restored.
The one and a half years agreed by Minato and Sandaime, today is the last day.
In the early morning, Minato pushed the door open and walked out. He has grown a lot taller, and his whole body is more upright.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, because in front of his house, it seems that there is a figure waiting for a long time.
Uchiha Yoruki was wearing a tight black suit, and the whole person looked arrogant and cold. The lines of his cheeks gradually showed contours, and more importantly, there was a bit more heaviness between his eyebrows.
Minato had not seen the man in front of him for a long time. He seemed to have heard from Sandaime that in the past year and a half, Uchiha Yoruki had been training and carrying out missions like crazy, and the missions he carried out were all very difficult and life-threatening.
Two months ago, he officially became a special jonin, the youngest special jonin after Minato.
"Long time no see." Minato smiled at him lovingly.
To Minato's surprise, the always unruly Uchiha Yoruki actually returned his greeting symbolically and smiled, "Long time no see."
"Can I help you?" Minato said.
"Sandaime told me about your battle with Sakumo." Uchiha Yoruki said.
Minato's eyes narrowed immediately, but it was not that he could not understand Sandaime's intention.
"So, are you here to spar with me?" After guessing the intention, it was not difficult for Minato to guess the former's intention.
Uchiha Yoruki was stunned when he heard this, and then said: "It's not a spare, it's a battle!"
Suddenly, the little humility that could be felt from him just now disappeared without a trace, and a momentum suddenly pressed towards Minato.
Minato's eyes were stern. He had never thought that in just one and a half years, Uchiha Yoruki had improved to this point.
There is no doubt that his comprehensive strength has reached the level of a true jonin.
"Chi!"
The originally black pupils suddenly turned red, and the two magatama slowly rotated in them.
He faced Minato, and at a certain moment, the magatama in the blood-red eyes rotated, as if suddenly solidified.
Swish!
A black light flashed, and Uchiha Yoruki immediately appeared where Minato stood. However, when he stretched out his palm, only a faint afterimage was left.
"Sharingan, it seems that you are already proficient in controlling the two magatama Sharingan." At this time, Minato's laughter came from behind him.
"Sure enough, it doesn't work on you." Uchiha Yoruki sighed, and his Sharingan could no longer capture any of Minato's movements.
The moment he cast the Sharingan, Minato had disappeared from the spot, and what he saw afterwards was just the visual afterimage left there before.
Minato's speed was actually at least twice as fast as his speed, which is why this happened.
Uchiha Yoruki clenched his palms, as that was what he was worried about.
If Minato and Sakumo fought, he was afraid that he would no longer have the courage to challenge Minato.
Because while he was making progress, this guy could always grow at a more astonishing speed, and the gap between the two of them was getting bigger and bigger.
As if he knew his concerns, Minato glanced at him and chuckled, "The result of the battle between us has not yet been decided, but if you are waver, then I will naturally win without a fight." After he finished speaking, he suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Uchiha Yoruki stared at the direction where Minato left, and remained silent for a long time.
