After leaving Orochimaru's lab, Lux went straight to et Minato.
The Minato family had returned to their ho from Fugaku's house, and after half a day of rest and treatnt, Minato's injuries had basically healed.
Although he didn't have the strong vitality of the Uzumaki clan, as the Jinchuriki of the Kyuubi, Minato's self-healing ability was second only to the Sage Body.
What about chakra reserves?
With the Kyuubi, an infinite power bank, he didn't need to worry about that at all.
During this short ti, Minato also recounted his previous experiences to Kushina.
Kushina was terrified upon hearing this, her heart racing like a roller coaster.
This was too dangerous!
Just listening to his description, she could feel the danger of Minato being on the brink of death multiple tis!
"Is the enemy nad Isshiki really that strong?"
"Yes, he's stronger than before! I even feel he's far stronger than Hashirama-sama..."
"Stronger than the Shodai? Then he..."
Kushina exclaid. She had seen Hashirama easily control the Kyuubi earlier, and she couldn't imagine soone stronger than the First Hokage!
"Don't worry, he's been restrained by Sir. He won't threaten the safety of the village, you, or your child in the short term."
"But doesn't that an you'll have to face him again in a year?"
"Yes! After all, he's an enemy of the ninja world. We can't ask you to imprison such a powerful enemy indefinitely!"
"That's too dangerous, he's too strong."
"Don't worry. There's still ti, and I can still gather strength. Orochimaru and the entire village will help , and I'll also work hard to unite the strength of the entire ninja world. I might not lose in the future!"
"Alright. But when the ti cos, I'll fight alongside you too!"
Kushina stared at Minato with a determined gaze.
"It's dangerous..."
"I know, that's why I want to face it with you! Don't reject , okay?"
"Alright!"
Minato pondered for a mont but eventually nodded in agreent.
He knew that Kushina, the spicy little pepper, wasn't a fragile vase that needed endless care.
She was also his wife, Naruto's mother, and a powerful kunoichi!
Kushina, with her Kyuubi and Uzumaki Sealing Techniques, might be able to make an extraordinary contribution in the future operation to hunt Isshiki.
Of course, before letting Kushina join the battle, Minato would definitely conduct adequate experints and prepare sufficient risk plans and backup asures.
He would do his best to minimize the risks!
"By the way, what about Jiraiya-sensei..."
Speaking of Jiraiya's tragic death, Minato felt a little gloomy, but he quickly cheered up.
"It's fine, I'll find a way to bring sensei back to life!"
"Can you really do that?"
"Not sure yet. But Sir ntioned that the Rinnegan can do it, so it might be true. I'll do my best."
"The Rinnegan, you an?"
"Yes, Obito should have another Rinnegan hidden in his base. I'll retrieve it."
"Now?"
"Yes, I need to get it back as soon as possible to feel at ease."
Minato kissed Kushina and baby Naruto in bed, then got up and dressed.
He put on his new Hokage robe again and prepared to gather his troops and head to the Land of Iron.
To avoid further trouble and prevent the White Zetsu from escaping by chance, the Gedo Mazo and Rinnegan at the Mountain Graveyard Base needed to be moved.
Minato, of course, had to strike quickly.
"Be careful."
"Alright, I'll be back soon!"
◆━⊰✧⊱━◆
Minato pushed the door open, ready to leave.
Only then did he realize that Lux was already sitting in the living room, casually sipping Red Bull.
"Sir, you're back?!"
"Mhm."
"You've been chatting for a long ti. You two seem to really love each other."
Minato blushed, scratching the back of his head and smiling:
"Haha, Kushina is very worried about . By the way, Sir, is there anything I can help you with?"
Lux smiled slightly and asked directly: "Are you going to Obito's base now?"
"Yes. I want to retrieve the Gedo Mazo and Rinnegan as soon as possible. Sir, can the Rinnegan really bring Jiraiya-sensei back to life?"
"Yes, but the conditions are quite difficult. You'll know when the ti cos."
"It's good to have hope. I'll do my best to make it happen!"
Minato beca a little more confident. As long as there was hope, it was good. The worst was having no hope at all.
"Alright, you go ahead. I'll co find you when you return."
Lux originally planned to co find Minato and take this opportunity to bring him to the moon. Deal with the Otsutsuki on the moon here and take the Tenseigan at the sa ti.
After all, Isshiki of Parallel World 4 here was uncontrollable and more or less a threat.
And Minato wanted to rival Isshiki.
The fastest way was to transplant a pair of Tenseigan or Rinnegan.
However, the Rinnegan was relatively rare, and transplanting a Rinnegan that wasn't your own had significant side effects, and the results might not be the best.
As for the Tenseigan, there were no such limitations. After transplantation, one could gain powerful chakra and master Yin-Yang Release and Truth-Seeking Balls.
At that ti, with the blessing of the Tenseigan, even if Minato couldn't defeat Jigen, he would at least have the power to protect himself.
But since Minato was in a hurry to retrieve the Gedo Mazo and Rinnegan, let him go first. After all, it would only take a few days, so it wouldn't be delayed for long.
"Alright, I'll return as soon as I'm done!"
Minato didn't ask further.
Whatever the case, at least he was sure Lux wouldn't harm him.
Otherwise, Lux would have just let Isshiki kill him earlier and wouldn't have needed to step in to save him at all.
Just as Minato was about to leave, the Kyuubi, who was partially within his body, suddenly called out to him.
"Minato, wait a mont!"
"What is it?"
"I sense that old man's aura!" The Kyuubi shouted, both surprised and excited.
"Who?"
"That old man Rikudo!"
"Huh? Rikudo Sennin? Where is he?"
"Here!"
