Naruto : Minato back to the past

Everyone was shocked, even their classmates Akasaka Yu and Takenouchi Rin were no exception. Although they knew that Minato was very strong, they did not expect him to be able to defeat the combined forces of two Genin. Also, although Kushina had the title of "Red Hot Habanero," it was just a name among their group of students.

But this battle refreshed their understanding, and they finally understood why there were not many people in the entire grade who were Kushina's opponents. Because even when facing a real Genin, she was able to win. This kind of strength is not at the same level as theirs.

After shaking off Musashi's chakra mark, Minato's shadow clone held him up, allowing him to regain control of his body. Minato's real body rushed towards Kushina.

"Kushina, are you okay?"

Including Kushina's real body, there were a total of four "Kushinas" in front of Minato, and he asked one of them.

"I'm okay." The one who answered Minato was Kushina on the far left. The battle was over, so she lifted the ninjutsu.

Kushina, on the other hand, looked at Minato and felt a little uncomfortable when she saw that his expression had become a little strange.

"What's wrong?" Minato subconsciously touched his cheek, thinking that he was stained with something strange.

Kushina stared at him and said, "You are so strong, but you still want to take me to hide everywhere. You are so unmanly!"

She pouted her lips and made a very unhappy expression. Minato, who was extremely perceptive before, did not realize that Kushina was pretending to be like this.

Minato hurriedly explained, "Didn't I tell you that the battles we are experiencing now are meaningless? We must always keep ourselves in a state of combat, and we have to look for Mikoto under such circumstances."

"Puff." Kushina couldn't help but burst out laughing. Minato, this guy, is usually smarter than anyone else, but sometimes, he is a little naive.

Seeing Kushina's reaction, Minato realized that he had been deceived by her, but he was not angry. Instead, he laughed along.

Nishikawa and Musashi, who were defeated by Minato, gathered together and walked towards Minato. When Kushina and the others saw this, their expressions suddenly became alert, but Minato on the side shook his head.

Everyone's bodies relaxed. After the battle just now, Kushina was not to be mentioned. These people seemed to have a special sense of trust in Minato, and everyone would involuntarily obey his decisions.

The two nodded to Minato, and then helped Sakai, who was defeated by Kushina. He had taken many attacks from Kushina, unlike Nishikawa and Musashi.

"I'm sorry, three seniors," Minato said to the three people. Although they were enemies before, they were all companions in Konoha in the final analysis.

Nishikawa, who was defeated by Minato first, smiled faintly and said, "There is nothing to apologize for. We are just not as skilled as others. Besides, didn't you show mercy to us?"

He could see that the purpose of Minato's battle with them was just to eliminate them. With his speed, there would have been a faster and more labor-saving method. But that would not guarantee that he and Musashi would not be hurt. That's why he chose to use the lightning ninjutsu to paralyze his body and the wind ninjutsu to make Musashi lose control of his body.

Minato smiled. It seems that this senior Nishikawa's observation and analysis ability are better than the other two.

"We did something a little too much before. Sorry." Under the gaze of everyone, Nishikawa actually apologized for his previous behavior of disrespecting the students of the ninja school. They also had this stage, but after nearly a year since graduating from the ninja school, their mentality had changed. And Minato and Kushina showed them that even the students of the ninja school should not be underestimated.

"Minato, Kushina, thank you!" Akasaka Yu came to the front of the two and bowed deeply.

Kushina was stunned, but immediately turned her face away and walked to Takenouchi Rin behind her and asked, "Takenouchi, are you okay?"

The two were in the same class, so they knew each other, but they were not very familiar.

"Yeah." Takenouchi Rin responded. Because of Kushina's personality, she was actually a little distant from Kushina most of the time. However, Kushina and Minato saved her, which also changed her impression of Kushina.

"Next, you all follow me and Minato." Kushina smiled at her. This was also the first time that Takenouchi Rin looked directly at Kushina's face. Her smile was very cute and had a kind of infectious power that made people unable to refuse.

Takenouchi Rin did not agree immediately because, with her strength, she would be a burden to Minato and Kushina.

"Don't worry." Knowing what she was thinking, Kushina turned her head and looked at Minato. The latter smiled faintly, then patted the shoulder of Akasaka Yu beside him and said, "Akasaka, come too."

Akasaka Yu was slightly stunned, then looked grateful to Minato, but he was also a little embarrassed. After all, his strength is too poor.

"Remember what I said before we came in? The students of our ninja school are at a disadvantage in terms of strength, and the only advantage is the number of people, so everyone should unite together and stick together, so as not to be underestimated by the seniors!"

Minato's words swept away all the worries in the hearts of Akasaka Yu and Takenouchi Rin.

"Then is it okay for me to join you?" The boy who was with Akasaka Yu and Takenouchi Rin before walked forward and asked.

Minato turned his eyes and said, "Of course it's okay."

The boy smiled lightly when he heard this but frowned and asked again, "But what about these guys?"

Following his line of sight, Minato saw the five freshmen whose chakra marks had been erased, and was ready to call them together. But at this time, Nishikawa, who had not left yet, said, "Let them follow us. Because of the previous mission, we know some skills for survival in the wild. I will teach them in the next few days, which can be regarded as a little compensation for our previous behavior."

After hearing this, Minato thought about it for a while and agreed with his idea. He didn't know the strength of these five freshmen, but they shouldn't be very strong. Akasaka Yu and Takenouchi Rin were barely strong enough, and the boy could hold on with them until he and Kushina arrived, so his strength couldn't be too bad.

Now he didn't want to expose his target too early and become the target of public criticism. If the target was too big, he would be troubled by continuous problems. Even hiding was full of obstacles.

The five freshmen still looked a little terrified. They were obviously still frightened by Sakai's previous behavior, but they didn't know how to survive in this forest of death, so they compromised.

So Minato and Kushina's team expanded to five people. After saying goodbye to Nishikawa and the other two, they entered the lush forest again.

Looking at the direction where the five disappeared, Nishikawa murmured, "Namikaze Minato, you must pass, otherwise, we who were eliminated by you will be ashamed."

Beside him, Musashi held the back of his head with both hands and said, "This feeling is really strange. I was eliminated by that guy, but I don't hate him at all."

As Minato and his five companions left, a figure who had watched the entire battle followed immediately. Even Minato couldn't detect his whereabouts.
