Chapter 984: Kushina: Minato is Useless
Chapter 984: Kushina: Minato is Useless
Minato and Kushina, having been revived, were naturally overjoyed, especially Minato, who, as the Fourth Hokage, was concerned about the current state of Konoha.
Kushina, on the other hand, was more worried about their son, Naruto Uzumaki, who had been left alone in the village.
Although both of them were eager to return to Konoha, they had been revived by Night City's power, so they decided to seek his advice first.
However, when the revived couple saw Night City sitting on the ground, still in the hand seal posture without moving, they immediately grew anxious.
Night City's life force and chakra were functioning normally, but Minato and Kushina had just tried calling out to him without any response.
Aware of the dangers of forbidden techniques, they dared not touch Night City, fearing unknown consequences, and could only anxiously pace nearby.
"Minato, what's the situation with Night City? Did something go wrong during the revival process, causing him to be unresponsive now?"
"Logically, since we've successfully revived, Night City's technique should have been a success. This situation shouldn't have occurred."
"Could it be... the aftereffect of the missing soul that Night City mentioned earlier?"
Any technique involving the soul was considered highly dangerous in the Shinobi World. Night City had assured them that the missing soul was a minor issue.
But now, Minato realized that Night City might have lied to reassure them at the time.
It was obvious; the soul, being one of the most crucial parts of life, would undoubtedly have consequences if damaged or lost.
"Are you saying that Night City's current unresponsiveness, as if he's in a deep sleep, is due to soul damage caused by our revival?
What should we do to help him now? Can we negotiate with the God of Death again, return the soul, and ask for Night City's missing soul back?"
Kushina couldn't accept the idea that her revival might have caused Night City to fall into a long-term coma or even become a vegetable.
While she longed to see Naruto again, she wouldn't allow her selfishness to bring misfortune to another family member.
"Kushina, don't panic. Let me think of a solution. This forbidden technique took Night City ten years to develop. Reversing it won't be easy."
Not only Kushina but Minato also shared similar concerns. Night City had already done so much for them, and they couldn't risk his well-being for their personal gain.
"How can I not be worried about Night City's situation?
You're the Fourth Hokage, the genius of Konoha! Think of a solution!"
Minato couldn't help but smile bitterly as he witnessed his wife's fiery temper, a rare sight.
Although he was indeed hailed as a genius, Night City's talent and strength were equally impressive.
In fact, Night City's genius far surpassed his own. If not for his lazy personality, the title of Fourth Hokage might have belonged to him.
It had taken this genius ten years to develop the "Dead Soul Transmigration" forbidden technique, and now Kushina expected him to reverse it overnight. This was an impossible task, even for someone as brilliant as Night City.
Even if it's not him, the Second Hokage, who developed numerous forbidden and ninja techniques, would be completely helpless in this situation, right?
Just as Night City bid farewell to the old man, Hagoromo, and his consciousness returned to his body, the voices of Kushina and Minato arguing reached his ears.
To be precise, Minato was on the receiving end of most of the scolding, and when Night City opened his eyes, he saw Kushina's hair standing on end without any wind, completely turning into fiery red peppers. She held Minato's collar with one hand and spoke disdainfully about his uselessness.
"Brother Minato, Sister Kushina, it's great to see you both just as lively as before."
Kushina, with her angry expression, and Minato, being held by the collar and wearing a bitter smile, were stunned when they heard the voice from the side.
When they turned to look at Night City, they saw him smiling at them, and Minato also showed a relieved and sunny smile.
As for Kushina, she immediately exited her fiery red pepper form and let go of Minato, who was in her hand. Overwhelmed with joy, she rushed forward and hugged Night City.
"It's great, it's so great that you're okay... Sister thought that you would fall into a deep sleep forever after reviving us."
Night City, tightly embraced by Kushina, felt a bit suffocated. He wanted to break free, but he realized that Kushina's strength was even greater than he had imagined.
Although their relationship was as close as siblings, Night City still felt a bit embarrassed with Minato watching from the side.
However, when he heard Kushina's words, Night City was stunned again. It wasn't until Kushina calmed down and explained the situation that he realized they had misunderstood.
"So, the reason you were unresponsive, as if in a deep sleep, wasn't due to a problem with your soul, but because Hagoromo, the Sage of Six Paths, pulled your consciousness into an unknown space?"

After listening to Night City's experience, Minato and Kushina were extremely surprised.
After all, Hagoromo Otsutsuki, the Sage of Six Paths, is the founder of the ninja world and a legendary figure.
For Night City to meet him and even communicate with him was, in their eyes, an unbelievable event.
"The future of the ninja world will face an unprecedented crisis? Did the Sage of Six Paths really say that?"
I remember Jiraiya also mentioned something similar. The Great Toad Sage of Mount Myoboku also made a similar prophecy, and it involved the prophesied child that Jiraiya had been searching for."
If someone else had claimed to meet the legendary Sage of Six Paths, Minato and Kushina would have thought they were boasting.
But now, hearing it from Night City, they naturally believed it. Even the Sage of Six Paths and the Great Toad Sage, beings of such caliber, spoke of a crisis, so the future of the ninja world was indeed a cause for concern.
"Regarding this matter, I want to visit Mount Myoboku. If it's the Great Toad Sage, he might know something."
Minato had planned to return to Konohagakure with Kushina to see their son and the village after more than a decade, but after learning about this, he believed this matter was more important.
