093 Naruto Mobile Game
🕑 Added 2025-12-17 22:46:46 +0000 UTCMinato Namikaze was revived!!!
Under the gaze of the entire ninja world, this Fourth Hokage, who had once shaken the ninja world with his name, walked out from the Pure Land and returned to the living world.
It had to be said—many people were bitterly jealous.
Compared to Resource Cards, Revival Cards were truly instant and effective. Whoever you said you wanted to revive would be revived.
In short, under the deterrence that Minato naturally carried, the other ninja villages could only suppress themselves for the time being.
Of course, everyone also learned one thing.
"I never thought the Fourth Hokage was Naruto's father."
"Yeah, it's really unbelievable."
Unbelievable, my ass.
Walking down the street and listening to the conversation between Ino and Choji beside him, Shikamaru felt a bit helpless.
Among those of the same generation, they really were the most shocked.
Back then, seeing that father and son recognize each other with their own eyes—aside from being moved, there was nothing but astonishment.
But thinking about it carefully, only with this relationship would the Fourth have sealed the Nine-Tails into Naruto, right? Choosing his own biological son as the one to bear hatred…
"Naruto is the son of the Fourth Hokage—then I even cursed at him before. Damn it."
"What does it matter? I've had a change of heart about Naruto recently. That guy is really amazing."
"Hey, hey, you changed your tune that fast?"
"Go apologize to him. Though he might not accept it."
"This is such a headache… I really messed up."
Listening to the discussions of the villagers passing by, Shikamaru felt that Naruto's life in the village from now on probably wouldn't be like before anymore.
This also has to do with your own strength, Naruto.
Shikamaru thought silently. Even as the son of the Fourth Hokage, it was impossible to stop people from talking behind his back.
So if he wanted to change all of this, identity did help—but the most important thing was still his own effort.
"..."
"The atmosphere in the village has changed."
In the Hokage's office, the Third stood by the window for a while before turning back and sitting down, picking up his pipe and taking a puff.
Although he had thought that anyone could be revived if Naruto held the Revival Card, judging from the result, reviving the Fourth was a success.
For Konoha, what was needed was a Hokage who could protect the village's stability for decades to come.
That wasn't him anymore. He could no longer shoulder that responsibility without wavering.
Actually, giving the Revival Card to Naruto had also removed one troubling matter.
The Third knew that if he himself had gotten it, how to use it would have been the most headache-inducing problem of all.
Yes, this was fine.
He picked up his phone and started a ranked match, bringing along the ninja he had just obtained a couple of days ago.
As the champion of this server, he had the full card of [Sarutobi Hiruzen]. During the Organization Dominion Tournament, he hadn't really had the chance to properly experience it yet.
"..."
"I have so many ninjas, I can play whoever I want… ah, right! I don't have the Third!"
Naruto lowered his head and flipped through his phone. He had originally planned to show off a bit, but when he saw the 50 fragments of [Sarutobi Hiruzen], his face immediately fell.
Minato didn't pay much attention to that. He was just looking at Naruto's little nest, a complicated expression on his face.
After being revived, Minato had been brought home by Naruto. Although Naruto wanted to go in first to tidy up a bit, Minato still followed him inside.
"Sorry, it might be a little messy," Naruto said softly.
"Mm, we can clean it up later. Can you teach me how to play Ninja Mobile Game?" Minato said with a smile.
"Sure!" Naruto was of course happy to. He just assumed that this man had heard people talking about Ninja Mobile Game on the way back and gotten curious.
He rummaged around for a while, and only then dug out another phone from under the bed.
After discovering that Shadow Clones could play on phones, he had gone to get another one, thinking he could play together with his Shadow Clones.
If that were really the case, then he could PK with his Shadow Clones—fighting himself to practice his skills.
But unfortunately, Shadow Clones couldn't register accounts. Now this phone just happened to be perfect for Minato.
Minato moved deftly and quickly finished registering, then logged into the account.
But since it was a new account, aside from the Future Seventh Hokage given at the start, there wasn't a second ninja.
So that was how Naruto ended up letting Minato play on his own phone—after all, experiencing ninjas in the practice field didn't matter.
After Minato roughly tried things out, he asked whether Naruto could guide him through quickly getting past the beginner phase, and Naruto was more than happy to do so.
Thus, during Minato's map-pushing and leveling process, this pair of father and son gradually became more familiar with each other.
For Naruto, this was the first time in his life that he truly felt the presence of a father.
He might have been at a loss, might have felt uneasy—after calming down, not knowing what to say or how to treat him.
But once they really interacted, their time together was extremely harmonious, almost like friends.
One was twenty-four. The other was twelve.
"..."
"The Duel Arena is unlocked, Naruto. Want to spar with me?" Minato issued a challenge.
"Of course! When it comes to games, there's no way I'll lose to you!" Naruto said confidently.
Entering the match, Naruto played it safe and chose Uchiha Itachi, Deidara, and Konan—the current version's three phantom gods.
But while selecting ninjas, Naruto suddenly remembered something when he looked at one ninja in his list.
"Ah! Right! That masked man! He personally said before that he fought the Fourth, and the Nine-Tails Incident was his doing, dattebayo!" Naruto said in a rush.
"Dattebayo?" Minato chuckled. "That's a verbal habit very much like your mother's."
"I-Is that so?" Naruto scratched his head embarrassedly. "Sorry, I did think about reviving you together before… but in the end, I still left Mom behind."
As he spoke, he quickly realized something.
"No—wait… the Nine-Tails Incident! Fourth Hokage! The masked man!"
"Mm, it was indeed that person," Minato's eyes changed slightly as he recalled that night, then finally softened. "Naruto, the match is starting."
In this father-and-son PK, Naruto had originally planned to enjoy being the teacher for once, properly teaching his out-of-touch dad how to play games.
But unexpectedly, the more they played, the more shocked he became.
"The Fourth's reactions are so fast! The fastest I've ever seen—faster than Kakashi-sensei!"
"Huh? Summon to bait Super armor into Dispel? You can play like that too? No—how did you even think of that?"
"Hey, hey, be careful using your ultimate—if it doesn't kill… dead, dead already?!"
"So strong—this is way too strong!"
In the end, Naruto still won, but his face was full of astonishment as he looked at Minato as if he were a monster.
Was this really just a newbie who had only just started playing Ninja Mobile Game? With a bit more practice and a few more ninjas, this strength could already get into Anbu.
"So, how about it—Dad is pretty amazing, right?" Minato said, half-showing off.
"That was incredible! Uh… Fourth!" Naruto played along enthusiastically, though he stumbled a bit when it came to the form of address.
Minato didn't mind. He stretched out his palm, and in just a moment, a sphere of chakra condensed in his hand.
Perhaps the rotation stirred the airflow, blowing both Minato's and Naruto's bangs.
"That's the Rasengan? Why can the Fourth use it?" Naruto's eyes widened.
"Looks like Jiraiya-sensei didn't tell you. I'll teach you this move later," Minato said.
"Okay!"
"Wait, before that… following Jiraiya-sensei, you didn't pick up any bad habits, did you?"
"Uh, ahahaha～ of course not. Don't worry, don't worry—Jiraiya is even about to quit his habit now."
Quit? Minato fell silent.
He couldn't imagine what kind of scene that would be—just like how he couldn't imagine Lady Tsunade quitting gambling.
That kind of thing… even he couldn't quit it!
