Chapter 39: You are a Real Anbu Ninja!
Chapter 39: You are a Real Anbu Ninja!
Minato's tone was solemn, and there was even a hint of order. He needed to get Aoba's confirmation.
It was not too difficult to apply for a holiday for an Anbu friend with his current identity, but it was definitely not that simple.
Of course, he didn't think that it was inappropriate to apply for a holiday for Aoba. But, he was worried that after applying for a holiday for Aoba, the latter was stubborn and unwilling to rest.
After all, he understood some human nature.
According to his understanding of what Aoba had experienced, he could feel that Aoba had strong self-esteem.
Although Aoba usually said that he was not in good health in a teasing manner. However, Aoba cared about this matter more than anyone else.
Minato thought that he understood Aoba very well, and his heart was full of sympathy for Aoba's situation.
"I..."
Aoba put on a hesitant posture. After thinking carefully, he shook his head firmly.
"Minato."
"I appreciate your kindness."
"But I can't rest."
"Captain Eaton told us..."
"During this period of time, the ninja world will be in chaos, and war might break out at any time. Not only did Konohagakure Intelligence Division collect information during the war period, but it also had to deal with the possible turmoil in the village during this short period of peace."
"Now is not the time for me to rest."
"I can't rest!"
Aoba's eyes suddenly became particularly firm, but his pale face looked like he was trying to show off, and his words reflected a great sense of honor for the village.
Rather than saying that Minato knew Aoba well, it was better to say that Aoba knew Minato better.
At this time, the Aoba that Minato saw was what Aoba took the initiative to show to him.

However, Aoba was very clear that Minato was the future 4th Hokage, and he was someone who was favored by the 3rd Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.
This was a person with the will of fire!
A person who could think from the perspective of a Hokage!
He absolutely could not slack off if he wanted such a person to help him. He was Minato's friend, but if he wanted to go through the back door using Minato, he should be in the right position.
This was also why Aoba chose to refuse again and again. Not only because he was cautious but also because he wanted to find the most suitable opportunity to completely dispel Minato's worries.
This was the first time that Aoba found Minato for help. But he felt that this would not be the last time.
In the future, the two of them would have many more opportunities to deal with each other.
Since it was not a one-time thing. Then the first was very important!
If not handled properly.
In the future, it would not be so easy to get in through the back door.
"Why are you so stubborn!"
Minato was so angry that he gnashed his teeth. His heart was full of helplessness. At the same time, he was very respectful of Aoba's insistence. He recognized Aoba very much in his heart, and he felt that Aoba was the same kind of person as him.
"Aoba, listen to Minato. When it is time to rest, you have to rest. I understand your determination to contribute to the village, but if you think about it from a different perspective, if you are tired, it will drag the village down!"
Kushina immediately said softly.
She hadn't said anything just now and was focused on listening to their conversation. She had a fiery temper, but her mind was delicate, and she understood that listening more often than not was more important.
"Yes! You need to rest now! Only when you have a good rest can you contribute more power!"
After hearing Kushina's words, Minato immediately found an angle to persuade her and continued, "You just said that the world is in turmoil, and there may be war, but the war has not yet broken out, right?"
"That is true..."
Aoba forced a smile.
"There is no war right now, so you can rest for a bit!"
Minato directly interrupted Aoba, not giving him a chance to explain.
"Think about it..."
"If you persist in such state now, after the war, you will be exhausted and have no way to work. Instead, it will affect the village!"
"Is that what you want to see?"
"If you think about it again..."
"If you take advantage of this time to have a good rest and fully recover your energy, you will be able to contribute more to the village when the war breaks out!"
"Think about it, isn't that better?"
Minato urged.
In this case, he said it according to Aoba's word.
He understood in Aoba's words that Aoba loved the village and was willing to contribute to the village.
Even if his body was weak and exhausted, he was unwilling to leave his post.
This kind of person loved the village more than himself.
This was the will of fire that the village continued to pass down!
Where the leaves dance, the fire would continue to burn!
Every leaf was burning itself to contribute light and warmth.
Because of this, Minato wanted to make an issue about contribution to the village so that Aoba would know what to do.
"This..."
Aoba was stunned, and a thoughtful look appeared on his face.
Minato didn't continue but gave Aoba time to think. Kushina also stared at Aoba without saying anything.
Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House suddenly quieted down.
"You have a point, but..."
Just as Aoba was about to say something, a voice interrupted him.
The owner of the voice was Ramen Ichiraku's boss, Teuchi.
"No buts. There are no buts. Minato is right; you should rest and don't dwell on this topic. If you don't eat, the noodles will become a lump!"
Teuchi said seriously.
"Okay... okay..."
Aoba knew that the time was right. If he didn't agree now, it would have a negative effect. This was the best time.
"Minato, I understand. I will listen to you and take a good rest to contribute more to the village!"
Aoba nodded.
"That's right!"
Minato grinned and became happy.
"Hehehe~"
Kushina also laughed, and the atmosphere became much more relaxed.
"But..."
Aoba spoke again, his expression serious and dignified, once again pulling back the attention of Minato and Kushina, causing the smiles on their faces to freeze.
"There is something I have to say clearly."
"I can only accept a leave."
"No transfer."
"I want to be in Anbu!"
"I want to use my own method to contribute to the village!"
"If I leave Anbu, I may become a useless piece of trash..."
Aoba said affectionately. Through his superb acting skills, he depicted a person who would burn his life for the village.
"Don't worry."
Minato nodded heavily. His blue eyes stared deeply at Aoba's pale face.
"Aoba, to be honest, I admire you very much. You are a real Anbu Ninja!"
