After listening to Minato's words, Aoba did not say anything and did not express his opinion.

This was the second declaration that he heard today to be the Hokage.

Moreover, these two people would have a teacher and student relationship in the future.

Aoba still knew about Minato. According to the expected trajectory, Minato would become the Fourth Hokage.

Only...

In that trajectory.

Minato had made brilliant achievements in the Third Ninja World War.

Those were the basis that supported him to become the Hokage!

Not only that.

The unfortunate result of the Third Ninja World War made the Third Hokage have no choice but to resign and take responsibility for it.

Now, the trajectory of the Third Ninja World War had obviously changed.

At least, from the looks of it...

The change was too big!

It might never be able to return to the anime trajectory.

What would happen in the future?

Even Aoba could not be completely sure, but more of it was based on the character's personality.

For example...

He believed that even if the Uchiha clan would not be exterminated, Uchiha Itachi would still willingly become a spy for the village to monitor the Uchiha clan.

Another example...

He also believed that even if Uchiha Obito were not pressed under that big rock. He would still fall into Uchiha Madara's trap of seeing Rin's death with his own eyes.

Etc...

These things were destined from the very beginning.

It was very difficult to change!

Of course.

Aoba did not intend to change this.

He supported Minato in his heart about becoming the Fourth Hokage, but without the support of the Third Ninja World War, he could face the same ending as Sakumo.

"Aoba, do you not believe me?" Minato once again focused his gaze on Aoba. He did not hear Aoba's affirmation and could not help but ask Aoba. At this time, he also needed some positive words to confirm his thoughts.

"I believe in you." Aoba nodded and said straightforwardly without any superfluous words.

"Hahahaha, as expected of my good friend. If I become the Hokage, I need you to help me. There are many things you know better than me." Minato had already thrown an olive branch to Aoba.

"Do you want me to be your Danzo?" Aoba looked up at Minato and asked.

"Danzo-sama has made a great contribution to the village. It is precisely because of Danzo-sama's assistance that Third Hokage-sama can manage Konohagakure well." Minato did not directly answer Aoba's question. He was unclear about what Danzo had done, but he knew that any Hokage needed such a person around him. The only person he could trust and be qualified for this position was Aoba.

"I understand." Aoba smiled and nodded. It was still a long time before Minato became the Hokage. Moreover, when Minato became the Hokage, there was no need for Shimura Danzo to exist. Otherwise, he would just be a hindrance.

"Hahahaha, I knew you would help me; I will definitely work hard to become stronger and become an existence no weaker than the First Hokage Senju Hashirama!" Minato's blue eyes flashed with determination. His talent was excellent, and now he had to work even harder in his training.

"You will definitely succeed!"

Aoba nodded. He had confidence in Minato, and he was also looking forward to it.

If Minato had not died young.

Then, as his strength continued to increase and his experience accumulated, he would be able to become stronger.

What kind of effect would it achieve in the end?

One must know...

Minato had also learned Sage Mode and mastered the Kyuubi Chakra Mode in the Shinigami belly.

This was a very powerful talent!

"Aoba, I can't waste my time here. I want to discuss the method you just mentioned with Third Hokage-sama, and then I will go and start training!" The dissatisfaction in Minato's heart had already been vented.

Having already had a clear goal, he was no longer at a loss. He began to have a direction to struggle in and suddenly felt that time became precious.

"Don't mention me." Aoba immediately said.

"Okay, okay, okay. Don't you worry about it, what can I say and what I can't say? I'm very measured," Minato nodded repeatedly.

"As long as you don't tell anyone about me, you can say anything." Aoba smiled. He was still very confident in Minato. Minato had never told anyone about what had happened before.

"Aoba, I sometimes wonder why you are so low-key. With your ability, you can at least be a Hokage!" Minato asked in confusion.

"It's good like this now." Aoba did not explain much. After this period of living in Konohagakure, he had already adapted to this kind of rhythm and felt very comfortable.

"Alright, I will send the book to Ramen Ichiraku tonight. Remember to ask Brother Teuchi for it." Minato said with a smile. After chatting with Aoba, he was in a completely good mood. He decided that if he had similar doubts in the future, he would come to chat with Aoba.

"Now I am leaving. The scenery here is quite good. Look at it for a while longer. I will not take you with me!" Minato said without a trace of politeness. Then, with a thought, he directly used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) and disappeared instantly.

"..."

Aoba watched as Minato disappeared from his sight and was instantly speechless.

Good fellow.

What a yellow flash!

He came and left in a hurry!

He didn't even give him a ride.

He was so cruel to leave him at the top of the Hokage Rock.

...

Just a few minutes before Minato used Hiraishin no Jutsu(Flying Thunder God Technique) to leave.

In Konohagakure's alley.

Kushina and Mikoto walked hand in hand, chatting about topics that belonged only to close friends.

"I can feel that Minato has been under too much pressure recently, but I don't know how to help him..." Kushina said in distress.

"You still don't know?" Mikoto winked at Kushina, and a meaningful smile appeared on her face.

"You... What are you thinking!" After seeing Mikoto's expression, Kushina blushed and instantly understood what she meant.

"What? Don't you think so? Now is the best chance to take Minato down!" Mikoto said with a smile. Judging from her expression, she was more excited than her own affairs.

"Mikoto, look at yourself. You look gentle and quiet in front of others, like a lady from a rich family. But your mind is full of strange things!" Kushina said helplessly. However, although she said that, she was a little tempted. This was indeed a good opportunity. It could help Minato relieve the pressure, but it could also further enhance the relationship between them so that they could understand each other more deeply.

"What am I thinking about?" Mikoto suddenly showed an innocent expression on her face. She blinked and stared at Kushina and laughed while saying, "Why don't you tell me what I'm thinking? It's too obscure; I can't understand it."

Kushina helplessly rolled her eyes at Mikoto. She knew what her best friend looked like. In front of others, she was extremely quiet, but her true colors were exposed in front of her.

"Hey hey hey, how about it? Do you want to reward Minato tonight? You have been together for so long; it's time to get married!" Mikoto's face was full of gossip.

"Don't worry; I will not be the first. It's you, who will definitely get married before me, and you will even have a child." Kushina shook her head and said. She really thought so. Her best friend had a very greedy characteristic; that is, she had not yet determined who her true man was. Otherwise, her child would have run all over the place.

"What are you saying? How can I be so fast..." Mikoto's eyes widened. This time, it was her turn to be red. As she spoke, she really thought about this matter in her heart.

"Hurry up and stop thinking about me. I think you should hurry up. Maybe your son will be able to catch up with this war when he is born. It's a good time to go to the battlefield and work for the village!" Kushina teased.

"Do you think it's so easy to find an excellent boy? There is only one Minato in our generation. I don't know how he fell in love with you. You don't know how many girls in the village are jealous of you!" Mikoto curled her lips and said. If her best friend hadn't beat her to it, she might have tried to get in touch with Minato. At least until now, she didn't find anything that Minato was dissatisfied with.

"Wait..."

While Mikoto was fantasizing, Kushina's eyes suddenly focused on the Hokage Rock not far away.

She was thinking about the last time she and Minato went to Hokage Rock to see the scenery.

At this time, she saw a figure on the Hokage Rock.

"That person is Minato, right?"

Kushina frowned slightly; the red hair scattered behind her began to float against gravity, and a trace of anger appeared on her face.

"Who is he playing romantic with behind my back?"

Kushina clenched her fists. She had always been like this. Her temper came and went quickly, so no one dared to provoke her.

"Huh?"

Mikoto followed Kushina's gaze and looked at the figure above the Hokage Rock.

At this time.

The yellow-haired Minato was standing on the Hokage Rock and talking excitedly. Even if she couldn't see his expression, she could see that he was very excited.

"That is indeed Minato, and it seems that he has vented well. Kushina, your opportunity has slipped up!" Mikoto said with a smile.

"There seems to be someone else. Can you see who it is?" Kushina's voice became unhappy.

"It seems to be..." Mikoto widened her eyes and fixed her gaze on the person behind Minato. She said, "Aoba!"

"Aoba?!"

Kushina's mood suddenly became more complicated, and the anger that had just flared up made her suppress it again.

It was impossible to guard against it!

They actually ran over there!

"Minato looks very happy!"

Mikoto's puzzled voice sounded in Kushina's ears.

"Sure enough, when you are confused, it is best to vent your feelings with your good friend!"
