For Hiruzen, it was not easy to persuade Koharu and Homura, but it had nothing to do with Zhang Miao. After coming out of the Hokage's office, he went back to his home.
On the way home, Zhang Miao's face was full of expectation, and his smile became more and more brilliant.
"I haven't been back for more than half a year. Naruto should have grown a lot taller, right? With Sister Kushina taking care of him, this guy should have grown up a lot. I just don't know what expression he will have when he sees Minato. By the way, he should not know that he is the son of the Fourth Hokage, right?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Miao's face suddenly flashed a trace of expectation.
Soon, Zhang Miao returned home, but before he could enter the house, he heard Kushina's roar in the house.
"Naruto, how many times have I told you? You have to put your things away. Look at how messy the house is. Hurry up and pack up your things. You are really infuriating!"
Zhang Miao: "... "
Really energetic!
Listening to the energetic voice of Kushina, the smile on Zhang Miao's face suddenly became brighter. He smiled and reached out to open the door.
"I'm back!"
As soon as Zhang Miao finished speaking, Kushina, who was reprimanding Naruto, was first stunned, then turned around and rushed over, pulling Zhang Miao into her arms.
"Welcome back, Ryunosuke. I'm sorry. Mom accidentally broke your Wood Clone!"
Zhang Miao: ""... "
My Wood Clone isn't made of porcelain, so it shouldn't be that brittle, right?
Thinking of this, Zhang Miao couldn't help but twitch his mouth twice, and then helplessly said to Kushina.
"It's just a Wood Clone. If it's broken, so be it. Sister Kushina, I have a good news to tell you. I have brought Brother Minato back. Yes, he's alive!"
"Eh?"
Upon hearing Zhang Miao's words, Kushina, who was originally holding him tightly, immediately released her hand, and her expression was replaced by shock.
After more than ten seconds, she finally reacted, and her eyes were filled with joy.
"This... Is this true? Minato is back? Where is he now?"
Looking at Kushina's overjoyed face, Zhang Miao grinned again, and at the same time took out the Hiraishin Kunai that Minato gave him.
"Look, a miracle is about to happen!"
At this point, Zhang Miao immediately used the Mind-Body Transmission to inform Minato.
"Brother Minato, I'm already home. Now you can use the Hiraishin to come over!"
As soon as Zhang Miao finished informing Minato, Kushina found a golden light flashing in front of her. When the light dissipated, Minato, who was wearing a white royal robe, came out of the room.
Looking at the sudden appearance of Minato, Kushina's eyes widened again. She quickly covered her mouth, and two streams of tears flowed out from the corners of her eyes.
Minato could understand Kushina's feelings, so when he saw her crying face, he smiled at her and opened his arms to give him a hug.
"Kushina, I'm back!"
While Minato was holding Kushina, Naruto was staring at him. To be more precise, he was looking at the words "Fourth Hokage" embroidered on the back of his clothes.
At this time, Minato's cloak was already damaged, and because it was pierced by the Kyubi's claws, the cloak was stained with a lot of blood. Under the influence of the blood, the words on the top seemed a bit blurry.
Therefore, after looking at it for a while, Naruto shouted with surprise.
"Fourth... Hokage... ah, I know, you are Lord Fourth!"
Hearing Naruto's exclamation, Minato let go of Kushina, and then turned around to touch Naruto's little head, giving him a bright smile.
"Yes, I'm the Fourth Hokage, but you can't call me the Fourth Hokage!"
"Ah?" Hearing Minato, Naruto suddenly opened his eyes wide, showing a puzzled face, "Why? Do you dislike me?"
Looking at Naruto's confused and disappointed face, Minato's eyes suddenly flashed with a trace of distress, and he immediately reached out and hugged him.
"Of course not, how can there be a father who doesn't like his own son? Naruto, I don't want you to call me the Fourth Hokage because I want you to call me Dad!"
"Dad? Hokag- sama, you are my father?" Hearing Minato, Naruto widened his eyes again, and his face was filled with shock.
Looking at Naruto's shocked and disbelieving face, Minato smiled again and nodded.
"Yes, Naruto, I am the Fourth Hokage, but I am also your father, and you are my most important son!"
As soon as Minato said this, Naruto's little mouth suddenly flattened, and then he cried out. He was crying and holding Minato's neck, as if he would disappear as soon as he let go of him.
Minato did not mind, allowing Naruto to hold his neck and cry, and he just hugged him with a smile and gently stroked his soft hair.
Looking at this scene, Zhang Miao suddenly felt his eyes heat up. He immediately turned his head and said, "I'll go outside to enjoy the wind!"
With that, Zhang Miao turned and went out.
After leaving the door, he sat down cross-legged in the corridor, took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and lit it. Then he took a deep breath.
When he spat out the smoke, there was a trace of emotion on his face.
"The small goal that was set at the beginning was finally completed. Brother Minato and Sister Kushina are both resurrected, and Naruto is no longer an orphan. Now I can be at ease even if I leave, right?"
At this point, Zhang Miao put the cigarette between his fingers into his mouth again, but this time, before he could smoke, a slender white hand reached over and took the cigarette away from his mouth.
The cigarette was taken away, Zhang Miao could not help but look up, and then he saw that Kushina was glaring at him.
"I already said that you are not allowed to smoke. Why are you not obedient?"
"Uh... This..."
When he heard Kushina, Zhang Miao was about to say something, but before he could open his mouth, Kushina's hand had already grabbed his ear, and then she began to reprimand him.
"Even if you are His Holiness Hades, you are still my son. It is a mother's responsibility to educate you. And what did you just say to leave? I can't pretend that I didn't hear it. Do you know how worried I was when you were not here? Did you not hear what your mother just said?"
Zhang Miao: "... "
"Uh.. she's a handful mother... However, this feeling doesn't seem bad!"
