The God Of Shinobi
Chapter 20 Bonsai
Hokage Office
As soon as the door opened, Obito appeared with a feeling of excitement with the others.
‘’Wah Minato Sensei! Congratulations on becoming the Fourth Hokage,’’ said Obito.
‘’Happy Sensei,’’ says Rin.
Kakashi, Guy and the others also congratulated.
‘’Hem!’’ coughing someone made all look up and be surprised.
Obito and the others bowed respectfully. ‘’Salam Sandaime-sama, sorry for not being aware of your whereabouts.’’
‘’Nothing, I understand how you feel, especially the team of Yondaime Hokage... You must be happy because your teacher was chosen to be a Hokage, until you want to congratulate directly,’’ said Sandaime.
‘’Thank you,’’ smile Minato.
‘’Hoo~ how could you not be aware of the existence of Sandaime-sama just because it is too happy?’’ kushina asked Obito.
‘’What are you saying? I did not realize it,’’ kekeh Obito.
Minato who was aware of the existence of someone no made his forehead wrinkle. ‘’Where is Naruto?’’
Kushina immediately remembered Naruto who had been told by her husband. ‘’Oh yes, I have never met him, where is he?’’
‘’Eh? She was with us, but why did she disappear?’’ ask Asuma.
‘’Iya, I saw him walking beside Obito earlier when we headed here,’’ Kurenai said.
‘’Then where is he?’’ ask Rin.
‘’I guessed it, he must be an intruder! The proof is that he has disappeared, maybe he has left this village and reported information about Minato Sensei becoming Yondaime Hokage. From the beginning he was indeed a freak,’’ Obito said.
‘’Obito, you must not accuse anyone indiscriminately,’’ said Minato.
‘’Then what happens now? Why would he disappear if he had not fled the village?’’ ask Obito.
Kakashi sighed as he could not bear to hear Obito's chatter. ‘’Naruto did not escape. I saw him running towards a store before we came here.’’
‘’What did that freak do in the store?’’ ask Obito.
At that time Naruto also came while carrying the bonsai plant in a mini-sized pot. He approached Yondaime Hokage while handing over the bonsai plant.
‘’Congratulations on his title as the Fourth Hokage, I give this gift with a sincere heart to Yondaime Hokage,’’ Naruto said.
Everyone there was wide-eyed, especially Kushina and Sandaime who had seen Naruto in person.
‘’Naruto, why did you give Yondaime Hokage a bonsai plant?’’ ask Obito.
Naruto smiled as he looked at Yondaime Hokage. ‘’Bonsai symbolizes harmony, peace, order of mind, balance, and all that is good in nature. I pray Yondaime Hokage has all these elements to lead the village.’’
Hearing Naruto's words made everyone there very touched especially Minato. Engraved a smile on Minato's lips while receiving the bonsai plant in the mini-sized pot.
‘’Arigatou(Thank you),’’ smile Minato.
Obito gave his thumbs up proudly and praised Naruto.
‘’I thought someone accused him of being an escaped intruder,’’ Kakashi said.
‘’I didn't accuse him, just guessing,’’ Obito said.
......................
Even at night, Minato would be more preoccupied with the affairs in the Hokage's office.
‘’Kushina, the others have gone home you should also go home, I still have to be here,’’ said Minato.
‘’True too. I was too cool to talk to Naruto until I was not aware it was night,’’ said Kushina.
‘’Naruto, you also go home to the apartment that has been provided for you,’’ Minato said.
As Kushina walked away, Naruto pulled the tip of the woman's shinobi jacket.
Kushina turned to look at Naruto, as did Minato who was staring at the boy.
‘’What's up?’’ ask Kushina.
