"Eh? That's Kushina from when she was a kid."
A soft smile flashed in Minato's eyes. "So nostalgic… Kushina was really cute back then."
Kushina's cheeks flushed. "Geez, Minato…"
Shikaku turned his head away, unable to watch. The Fourth Hokage was showing off his affection again.
Could he at least take things seriously for once?
"Is what we're seeing actually real?" Shikaku asked, his unease deepening as the answer came back: yes.
[Uzumaki Naruto: Dattebayo?!]
[Haruno Sakura: He's got the same catchphrase as Naruto.]
[Nara Shikamaru: Still has the Uzumaki surname… Wait, could that be Naruto's mom?]
[Uzumaki Naruto: Eh?!]
[Inuzuka Kiba: Whoa! She's actually super pretty!]
Hidden Leaf Village.
Naruto clung to the screen, eyes wide with excitement.
A red-haired girl? She seemed… really familiar. Could she be related to him somehow?
"Pervy Sage, who is that? Come on, tell me! Tell me!!"
"She kinda looks like a tomato… but a really pretty one! And she talks like me, haha, that's hilarious!"
Jiraiya ruffled the blond boy's head with a grin. "Keep watching, you'll see soon enough. Who knows, there might be a surprise waiting."
Naruto beamed and nodded. Just seeing the red-haired girl had already brightened his mood.
[Kushina introduces herself in class but gets mocked for her red hair and round face.]
Together, it makes her look like a tomato.
"Unbelievable, how can someone be that red?"
"She's seriously weird."
Kushina clenched her fists. "I… I'm going to become the very first female Hokage!"
She shouted her dream for everyone to hear.
[Inuzuka Kiba: Whoa—she looks just like Naruto! And she talks like him too! Is she really his mom?!]
[Akimichi Choji: Oh! Except for the hair, everything's identical—even the dream of becoming Hokage.]
[Haruno Sakura: Uzumaki Kushina? I've never heard of that name in the village. Was she a ninja?]
[Terumi Mei: The Uzumaki clan all had red hair. I can't believe Konoha's forgotten them entirely.]
[Onoki: Of course they have. The Uzumaki Clan was wiped out ages ago.]
In Another Timeline…
The Warring States Era.
The Senju and Uchiha clans were locked in fierce battle—until suddenly, a massive screen descended from the sky, forcing both sides apart.
Uchiha Tajima's Sharingan flared blood-red, locking onto the massive screen.
"Is this some trick from the Senju?"
Senju Butsuma's brow tightened. "I was about to ask if it was one of your Uchiha ploys."
"You Uchiha are born deceivers."
"Says the Senju!"
Before the argument could escalate, the screen lit up—revealing a red-haired girl.
"Uzumaki?!"
The Senju, who were closely tied to the Uzumaki clan through marriage, all furrowed their brows.
Tobirama studied the girl for a moment. "I don't recall ever seeing her among the Uzumaki."
He knew nearly every child in the clan, especially one with such a strange catchphrase.
"Hokage… what is that?"
Something to do with fire, perhaps?
Their first thought—of course—was the cursed Uchiha.
But with the strange appearance of this screen, both sides decided to call a temporary truce.
"What? The Uzumaki were wiped out?!"
Butsuma's eyes filled with killing intent.
The Senju and Uzumaki had always stood together—not only bound by marriage but by alliance.
When the Uzumaki faced trouble, they would always turn to the Senju.
And when the Senju had sealing missions, they relied on the Uzumaki's techniques.
For their clan to be annihilated? There was no way the Senju wouldn't be involved—or at least know about it.
What the hell was going on?
Meanwhile, Hashirama was practically glowing.
"That's a classroom! A place where children go to school! Madara, don't tell me… our dream is actually going to come true?!"
Everyone—Uchiha and Senju alike—turned sharply to stare at him.
Tobirama covered his face. "Idiot brother…"
[On screen, a blonde-haired boy stood from his seat.]
"My dream… is to become an amazing Hokage, someone truly acknowledged by everyone in the village!"
[Uzumaki Naruto: Who's that guy? He looks so familiar! Wait, aren't we supposed to be watching my highlights? Why are there so many people I don't even know?!]
[Inuzuka Kiba: He's got the same golden hair as Naruto—and the same eye color too. But he's way more handsome.]
[Haruno Sakura: He's so pretty and refined! A total heartthrob—though not as hot as Sasuke.]
[Nara Shikamaru: That guy… I swear I've seen him somewhere before.]
[Kushina was once again bullied by classmates who yanked on her hair.]
"Tomato girl! Like an outsider like you could ever become Hokage!"
"Totally ripe now. Time to pick the tomato!"
But Kushina locked eyes with Minato.
He didn't lift a finger to help.
Instead, she picked up one of the boys herself—and took down every single kid who surrounded her.
[Monkey D. Luffy: Tomato? Looks delicious to me.]
[Portgas D. Ace: Oi, Luffy, that's rude! Sorry about him—he means no harm. Just... no manners.]
[Marco: Unbelievable. Did Ace just say something mature?]
[Vista: That's gotta be a fake Ace.]
[Namur: I must be dreaming. An older brother apologizing for his sibling? That's gotta be a fantasy.]
[Nami: Huh?! No way. When Ace visited our ship, he was super polite! So warm and considerate! He even cleaned up after meals!]
[Sanji: He even offered to help with the cooking. So thoughtful.]
[Zoro: He's a damn good big brother.]
[Chopper: Yeah yeah! Totally!]
[Marco: Hahahahahaha.]
[Izo: I can't believe it. Brothers and sisters really are completely different people.]
The Whitebeard crew burst into laughter at the Straw Hats' comments.
On their ship, Ace was the youngest—always causing trouble.
Who would've thought that on someone else's ship, he turned into a caring big brother?
Locked away in Impel Down, Ace turned beet red as he watched his crewmates roast him.
"Those bastards! Just wait till I get out of here—I'm gonna knock 'em flat!"
Jinbe laughed so hard his jaw dropped.
Doflamingo and Uchiha Sasuke, watching from their respective worlds, were fuming.
These people… were way too irritating.
Completely different worlds. Completely different brotherhoods.
[Kushina continued to face bullying from her classmates.]
Each time, she fought back with her own fists—beating them until they surrendered.
And each time, Minato simply watched from nearby… never stepping in.
[Yamanaka Ino: That blond guy's emotional IQ is way too low. It's so obvious he likes her! Why doesn't he just make a move already? Always watching from afar like that—he's totally gonna get rejected.]
[Tenten: Boys really don't understand girls at all, huh?]
Back in the Fourth Hokage's era.
Reading all the kids' commentary, Minato sheepishly scratched his head.
