The Hokage, having traveled here, of course he'd unify the ninja world!

Chapter 556 Meeting Dad - 1 Punch

Upon hearing Qianyao's complaint, Dingza just chuckled a few times and then obediently reached out and took off the mask from his face.

A face that appeared slightly younger than it had on the battlefield was then revealed to everyone.

Meanwhile, Aburame Shiki remained silent, despite being criticized by Chiyo.

But he remained standing quietly to the side, without making any rebuttal or explanation.

Shuimen patiently waited for Qianyao to give his answer.

At this moment, Qianyao looked at Minato and Naruto, who appeared to be in a state of shock.

Somewhat amused, they sat suspended in mid-air.

"Since you're interested, let me introduce myself!"

"I am the Fifth Hokage of Konoha—Uchiha Chiyo!"

Chiyo has never worn a headband, nor does he usually wear the Hokage robe that symbolizes his Hokage status.

Since he became the head of the Uchiha clan, he has basically worn the clan's unique clothing.

This wasn't him deliberately trying to be different; rather, for someone as powerful as him, ordinary battle suits and Hokage robes were nothing special.

It doesn't bring him much practical benefit or provide effective protection.

After this self-introduction, everyone present suddenly realized, as if waking from a dream, that the mysterious man standing in front of them was actually the Hokage of Konoha.

Minato and the people around him quickly exchanged glances, and they all saw a hint of confusion and helplessness in each other's eyes.

After all, although they had met many members of the Uchiha clan, they had never heard of the name Uchiha Chiyo.

Or perhaps, at this moment, Qianyao has not yet shown its talent and is not yet well-known.

Who would have thought that an Uchiha clansman would become Hokage, and even the Fifth Hokage?

"But...didn't you say before that the Uchiha clan had been wiped out?"

Minato frowned slightly and asked with a look of suspicion.

Faced with Minato's question, Chiyo simply nodded slightly, then pointed to Naruto beside him and slowly said:

"All of this is thanks to the power of the dragon vein, which allows for time travel."

At this time, Naruto was sixteen years old, while Minato was twenty-two.

Naruto was born into this world when Minato died at the age of twenty-four.

Therefore, we are currently at a point in time eighteen years ago!

"Moreover, dragon veins can even achieve spatial travel."

"Therefore, I do not come from the timeline that you and Naruto live in."

"Due to certain special reasons, I am fully aware of the historical evolution of your current situation."

Qianyao continued to explain.

"Moreover, in my own timeline, I have successfully rewritten it entirely."

Minato, a powerful individual with exceptional spatial talent and mastery of the Flying Thunder God Technique, quickly understood Chiyo.

But even though he understood, he was still incredibly shocked.

[Is he actually the Fifth Hokage of Konoha from another timeline?]

Dingza and Zhiwei, standing to the side, looked on in disbelief as if they were listening to a fairy tale.

As for Naruto, he had no time to think about these complicated things; he was just eagerly waiting for Minato to take off his mask.

"So? Aren't you really eager to know the specific details?"

"But I'm sorry, I suddenly don't want to talk about it anymore. Who told you to keep hiding your face in front of me like this?"

A sly smile played on Qian Yao's face; clearly, the bait he had thrown out had been successfully swallowed by Minato.

Seeing that Minato was anxious, he deliberately kept him in suspense.

Seeing this, Minato became even more anxious.

Without hesitation, he reached out and quickly removed his mask, revealing a handsome face.

Qian Yao curled his lips slightly, muttering to himself that this guy looked almost exactly like Minato from his own timeline.

That makes sense, considering that Minato will be dying in two years, so how could his appearance change much in such a short time?

At this moment, Minato's face was slightly somber. He looked at Naruto apologetically and said softly:

"I'm sorry, Naruto, I really didn't expect the Third Hokage to treat you like this."

Clearly, after his conversation with Chiyo, Minato had come to believe Chiyo's words without a doubt.

Upon hearing this, Naruto's eyes instantly turned red, and tears streamed down his face like a burst dam.

Then, he let out an unbelievable burst of maniacal laughter:

"Hahaha, could it be that you really are my biological father?"

Minato nodded heavily in response:

“That’s right, child. Your name is based on the protagonist in Jiraiya’s novel, ‘The Story of Jiraiya’s Strong Will and Perseverance’.”

After a brief pause, Minato continued:

"Therefore, without a doubt, I am your father."

As Naruto wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeve, he slowly raised his head and gazed at the strange yet familiar man before him.

Suddenly, he opened his mouth and shouted out those two words:

"dad……"

However, just as Minato responded with a "Hmm?"

No one expected that Naruto would suddenly raise his fist, filled with anger and resentment, and smash it hard into Minato's abdomen.

With a muffled thud, Minato was struck by the sudden blow, causing him to bend over involuntarily in pain.

Naruto stood there, sobbing and crying out loudly:

"Why? Why did you seal the Nine-Tails inside your own son?"

"Because of it, I have suffered so much hardship, endured so many strange looks and bullying from childhood to adulthood."

"The adults all looked at me coldly, and I couldn't make any friends for a long time."

That's why I keep working hard, working hard.

"In order to gain everyone's approval."

"They underwent arduous training and continuously grew stronger."

"Then I met Iruka-sensei, Kakashi-sensei, and the Pervert Sage, and I was able to become stronger, which made me very happy."

"Why did you die? Do you know how much I suffered?"

"But, wait? I... what..."

As he spoke, Naruto painfully grabbed his hair.

"I really don't know whether I should be happy or angry now."

Minato, standing to the side, watched all of this silently, his heart filled with guilt and helplessness.

He knew all too well how much suffering sealing the Nine-Tails into his son's body had brought Naruto, but at the time he certainly had no other choice.

Given Naruto's history of being bullied since childhood, it's likely that Kushina also suffered an accident, just like him.

Now all the questions are focused on Uchiha Chiyo, who is standing next to him.
