Chapter 276: Chapter 276 Companions
Minato narrowed his eyes slightly. He had already browsed through most of the files he wanted to check.
His goal was to find clues about the real purpose of the masked man's words from these historical files.
However, in this process, apart from learning about the grievances between the various clans of Konoha, especially the grievances between the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan, there was no information worth noting.
However, this also made Minato more confused.
That is, in these files, the information about the Senju clan became less and less.
"What is going on?" Minato pondered and muttered to himself.
Uchiha and Senju, as the two most powerful clans in the early days of Konoha, in Konoha today, the Uchiha clan is responsible for security, although the clan seems to have moved to the edge of the village under the deliberate exclusion of the second Hokage.
However, the reputation of the Uchiha clan is unquestionable. This clan represents a powerful clan. The unique bloodline limit of the clan, the Sharingan, has dominated the ninja world for hundreds of years, especially during the time of Uchiha Madara time, when it reached its peak.
In that era, except for the Senju Hashirama of the Senju clan, the first Hokage, there was no one who could rival them.
Although the Uchiha clan has declined, it is still the most powerful clan in Konoha Village.
The Senju clan, which once competed with the Uchiha clan and even overshadowed it, disappeared quietly in the Konoha Ninja Village.
Now, there are no other descendants of the Senju clan in the village except Tsunade and Nawaki, the grandsons of the first Hokage.
Regarding this issue, even Minato, who was once the fourth Hokage, did not know, and there is no explanation in the files and secrets in front of Minato.
Where did many members and descendants of the Senju clan, which could be called the first clan in the ninja world, go?
This question lingered in Minato's mind, and he could not answer it. With this in mind, he immediately flipped through the files.
The files did not record anything until the beginning of the Second Shinobi War.
The War ended not long ago, and everything that happened during this period naturally needed to be sorted out for a period of time.
But Minato still did not see any records about the Senju clan.
"Not even here?" Minato frowned slightly.
If there was information about the disappearance of the Senju clan, even here, then the possible people that know would only be a few high-ranking officials in the village today. And the two people with Senju bloodline.
Nawaki and Tsunade.
"It's too early to draw a conclusion now. You can check other files tomorrow and maybe you will find something." Adult Minato's voice came, and Minato nodded. After
temporarily suppressing the doubts in his heart, Minato felt the hunger coming from his body.
Obviously, he forgot the time again in order to check the files.
In this attic, and because Minato was completely immersed in the files, he didn't know exactly how much time had passed. It wasn't until he walked out of the Hokage Building and saw the dark sky that Minato realized that at least twelve hours had passed.
On the main road in front of the Hokage Building, people were coming and going. Although the weather was cold, everyone was enjoying the peace in the days when the war had just ended.
Looking at the brightly lit shops and the endless stream of people in front of the shops, Minato felt an indescribable sense of comfort in his heart.
He and many of his companions fought bloody battles on the battlefield, wasn't it for this?
Not in a hurry to go home, Minato just strolled on the street.
However, before he walked a hundred meters, a man suddenly flashed in front of him.
"Where did you go? It took us so long to find you." Minato was startled. The person standing in front of him was actually Nara Shikaku.
Minato was stunned for a moment, and then he looked surprised: "Everyone is looking for me?"
Shikaku immediately explained: "Today is your birthday, everyone gathered together to celebrate you."
"Uh" Minato was stunned, and then asked: "You all know that today is my birthday?"
He only told Kushina about his birthday. Although he had told this information before when he was in the ninja school, it is estimated that no one would deliberately remember his birthday.
"Everybody was told by Nawaki." Shikaku smiled slightly and said: "He said that you saved his life in the battlefield of Land of Rain before, so he deliberately found out your birthday and notified many friend. Everyone went to different places in the village to find you."
Minato did not expect that Nawaki would be so concerned to thank him.
In the original history, Nawaki died on the battlefield of 2nd Ninja War, but because of Minato, his fate changed.
"Finally found you, come with me quickly," Shikaku said.
"Where to?" Minato asked.
"Nawaki gathered everyone at the barbecue restaurant." Shikaku said.
Minato nodded, and then he and Shikaku walked towards the barbecue restaurant.
The two of them came to the barbecue restaurant where Minato and Jiraiya had their first meal.
When the owner of the restaurant saw Minato, a smile appeared on his slightly fat cheeks.
Minato is now famous in Konoha. The owner of the barbecue restaurant, who had a very good impression of him, was naturally very happy when he knew that the former had achieved such a feat.
"Now you are the hero of the village. Today is your birthday, so let uncle treat you." The owner of the barbecue restaurant smiled.
"Uncle, this is not possible. Today I want to thank Minato. This meal must be treated by me." At this time, Nawaki and Suki walked in from outside the door. The former rushed to Minato and put his arm directly on his shoulder.
"Senior Nawaki, this is not necessary." Minato wanted to say something, but before he finished, he was interrupted by Nawaki.
"Minato, I know what you want to say, but today, you can't be polite to me. If it weren't for you on the battlefield, I might have died. This is not only my idea, but also my sister's idea. If she hadn't been entangled with some things, she would definitely come."
Nawaki said so, and Minato couldn't say anything else.
Immediately, several people walked into a private room, and at this time, there were already many people in the private room.
"Kushina." Seeing Kushina, Minato was slightly surprised, after all, the two had celebrated their birthdays last night.
When she saw Minato, she raised her eyes and said, "Mikoto pulled me here."
Minato immediately cast his gaze on Mikoto who was beside Kushina. The latter also looked at him with a smile and said, "Minato, happy birthday to you!"
"Thank you." Minato said, and then sat down next to Kushina.
The relationship between him and Kushina has long been no secret among his peers. In fact, Minato has the heart of an adult and will not be shy about it.
Gradually, the crowd gathered. Those companions who fought together on the battlefield like the Hyuga brothers, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, etc., all sat together to celebrate his birthday.
Except for Uchiha Yoruki.
After a war, Minato got more than just praise and fame. The most important thing for him was... the companions around him.
