Chapter 63: The Son of Prophecy
Just when Yoshihide Nohara and Shinnosuke were chatting hotly, Minako suddenly walked over.
It turned out that when the two father and son were chatting just now, Minako had been listening not far away.
"The mission was judged a failure, and the only thing to be thankful for is that the baby survived."
Minako's voice rang out.
"In the beginning, Yoshihide and I originally planned to send the remaining baby to an orphanage, but we were dissuaded by Hokage-sama and Jiraiya-sama respectively."
She looked at Shinnosuke with a loving gaze, "Hokage-sama said that this baby is unusual, and he hopes that Jishu and I can raise the child. ”
"But at that time, we were only 14 years old, and we didn't know how to be parents." Jixiu suddenly interjected.
Minako nodded, "Just when we hesitated, Jiraiya-sama also told us that this baby may be the child of prophecy in the mouth of the toad fairy, although he has met one before, but he is not sure which one is the real child of prophecy......"
"The Children of Prophecy will have the power to bring peace or total destruction to this world." Ji Xiu took his wife's words and said.
Minako stood beside her husband, "After much consideration, we finally decided to adopt this baby. ”
Unconsciously, a smile began to appear on her face, "During that time, we were really in a hurry, but fortunately, we later helped Biwako-sama. ”
Hearing this, Shinnosuke suddenly felt that the name Lake Biwa was familiar, thought for a while, and then asked, "Is it the wife of the third generation?" ”
Minako nodded, "Yes, Biwako-sama looks serious, but she is actually a very attentive person, and she takes good care of the baby, which also makes me and Yoshihide feel a lot more relaxed." ”
Yoshihide seemed to be infected by his wife, and he began to smile easily, "That's right, even the baby's name was given with the help of Lake Biwa." ”
"Name ......" Shinnosuke's face showed a look of shock.
Minako stepped forward, she touched her son's soft red hair with her hand, "It seems that you have already guessed that the baby's name is 'Shinnosuke'......"
"The reason for this name is because the eldest son of Lake Biwa, Sarutobi Shinnosuke is on missions all year round and rarely returns home for reunions, as a mother, because she is worried about her child, so she will name you, also called Shinnosuke." Minako tells the origin of Shinnosuke's name.
"Shinnosuke Nohara!" Yoshi-su suddenly called out his son's full name, "You're the baby you were 12 years ago, or rather, in fact, your real name should be Shinnosuke Uzumaki!" ”
Shinnosuke opened his mouth, feeling that the amount of information was a bit large, and for a while, he didn't know what to say.
"Ever since the two tails attacked Konoha that day, Yoshihide and I have already guessed that you must be the one that the toad fairy said he said, the 'Child of Prophecy' with earth-shaking powers......" Minako continued.
I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding in this.
Shinnosuke wanted to say this, but he didn't say it. Because once he said that, he couldn't explain his power.
Children of Prophecy......
Suddenly taking someone else's name, Shinnosuke felt a little ashamed in his heart.
Just when he felt a little embarrassed, Ji Xiu's voice reached his ears again.
"For twelve years, Minako and I haven't thought about having children," Ji Xiu's voice suddenly became a little solemn, "but after thinking about it, we think that having a son like you is enough." ”
Minako nodded repeatedly, "We're real...... I really think of you as my own child! She turned her head abruptly, then sniffed.
After calming down her emotions, she continued: "In the past, I thought that the emotions between people can be communicated, even if they are not expressed in words, as long as they treat each other sincerely, then the other party will be able to feel it. ”
"It's also for this reason that I always feel that whether you are our biological child or not, as long as we feel that you are and treat you sincerely, then you must be our child."
"But recently, Ji Xiu and I can clearly feel that Shinnosuke, you are obviously different from before, you have indeed grown up, maybe you have already guessed that you are not our child."
"We seem to be drifting apart, and then I start thinking again, how nice it would be if you were our biological child!" Minako frowned, her voice choked slightly.
Yoshihide stepped forward and patted his wife on the shoulder, and after a little comfort, he shifted his gaze back to Shinnosuke, "Now, we don't have to lie to you anymore, Shinnosuke, you can choose for yourself, whether you want to stay with us or leave this house, we will all respect your choice." ”
Minako nodded again, "No matter what you choose, and whether or not you will still treat us as parents in the future, please remember that in our hearts, you will always be our child...... 12 years, for us, it is the most unforgettable time of our lives, because you bring us a lot of happiness, so we are very grateful for you......"
Shinnosuke was silent for a moment, he knew it was time to make his own choice.
Is it a choice, or is it abandoned?
This is a question worth pondering.
If he was the same Shinnosuke as before, then he might choose this pair of parents.
However, now Shinnosuke, he is just a snatcher who is suddenly interspersed in other people's lives.
In the past few days, his parents have treated him well, and if he is not moved at all, it is impossible.
But there was a very real problem for him to consider......
Whether it's Yoshihide or Minako, both of them are two very ordinary ninjas in Konoha Village, and they are also ninjas who have lived here for generations.
Both of them have a deep affection for Konoha Village, and it can be seen from their words and deeds that if Konoha Village suffers misfortune, they will definitely come forward as soon as possible.
Then the question arises.
Once Shinnosuke accepts the parents, the two will become his weakness.
Right now, Konoha Village, which is peaceful on the surface, is actually complicated by all sorts of things.
And Danzo, Orochimaru, and the three generations of Hokage and others have been eyeing Shinnosuke.
Before, Shinnosuke felt that he was not afraid of shoes with his bare feet, as long as his strength was strong enough, then he would be fearless.
Therefore, he has always kept his heart and is unwilling to open his heart to others.
But after thinking about it, if you are invincible in the world, and when you look back, there is no one to talk to, then what is the difference between yourself and a living dead.
Accepting his parents, Shinnosuke may indeed have an extra weakness, but from another point of view, it is not an extra spiritual comfort.
Looking up at his parents, he didn't make a clear statement, just said a word......
