"Ah, this is..."
Jiraiya touched his head and looked at Minato, Naruto, and Boruto.
In this situation, the three of them, grandfather and grandsons, had all become his students?
And he could see all three of them at the same time.
For a moment, Jiraiya couldn't help but feel both ridiculous and relieved.
But it was so hard for him to say it!
Boruto's identity couldn't be revealed, and Minato also had his own considerations.
He couldn't just tell Naruto: This is your father, and this is your son, right?
With Naruto's small brain at this moment, it would definitely be impossible for him to understand. He was worried that Naruto's brain might not function even if it were to overheat.
Moreover, there were so many people watching, how embarrassing would that be?
"Boruto, right? Hello!"
Minato looked at Boruto and extended his hand to greet him.
"Hello."
Boruto shook his hand and nodded, looking at Minato with curiosity.
Since he had also studied the Flying Thunder God technique, he naturally understood Minato's strength and uniqueness better than anyone else.
Plus, with his striking blonde hair, Boruto vaguely guessed Minato's identity.
Although he had never seen his grandfather, he had often heard the famous name of the Fourth Hokage from his father and teacher.
Didn't he die when his father was born?
How did his grandfather end up here?
Moreover, his appearance and strength didn't seem like Edo Tensei.
Could it be that, like him, his grandfather had traveled from the past to the present?
"Not many people can master the Flying Thunder God technique. You're very talented. But your technique isn't complete. It seems you need to make some seals before you can perform it, right?"
"How did you know?"
Boruto clicked his tongue. He didn't expect that after just a few glances, this 'grandfather' would spot his shortcomings?
So scary?
As expected, he was the main user of the Flying Thunder God. He was even more skilled in it than the Second Hokage who invented the technique!
Minato didn't recognize Boruto's identity, but seeing Jiraiya's expression.
He had already guessed that this child must be related to him by blood!
Could he be a second child born to him and Kushina?
Naruto's long-lost brother?
That couldn't be!
Didn't Naruto just be born, and then he and Kushina died?
Although many doubts plagued him, Minato didn't want to delve too deep.
Instead, he gave Boruto a gift: "This is the enhanced version of the Flying Thunder God technique. I believe it will help you."
Minato handed over a complete set of the Flying Thunder God technique to Boruto; as long as he studied it carefully, he was sure Boruto would soon be able to fully master the advanced Flying Thunder God technique!
Boruto felt happy and repeatedly felt the mark on his hand.
He couldn't help but smile.
He didn't expect Minato to be so generous and straightforward.
The other party gave him the complete version of the Flying Thunder God technique from the start. He truly deserved to be his grandfather!
In the original future, Konoha was destroyed. Most of the forbidden techniques recorded in Konoha had been lost; Boruto's Flying Thunder God was also pieced together, which is why it had many flaws.
If he could learn the complete Flying Thunder God technique, his power would increase rapidly.
However, Boruto's joy only lasted for a few seconds before it quickly faded.
Although the enhanced version of the complete Flying Thunder God technique was good, it was no longer useful to him.
The ninja world of his future had been completely destroyed by the Otsutsuki clan. Even if he became as strong as his teacher, nothing could be changed.
Moreover, the future had now been reversed, and it was estimated that he and his teacher would be annihilated by time and space.
Therefore, even if he learned the complete Flying Thunder God, he wouldn't be able to use it in the future.
"Thank you! It's just that I don't have time to learn anymore."
Boruto expressed his sincere gratitude to Minato. However, the loneliness and negativity in his tone couldn't be hidden.
Minato frowned upon hearing that.
It felt very wrong.
Blonde ninjas are very sensitive to emotional changes, and Minato was no exception. He immediately noticed Boruto's abnormality.
Plus, he was already very curious about Boruto's identity.
So, Minato made a decisive decision.
He directly grabbed Boruto and prepared to take him elsewhere to talk alone.
"I'll take him away for a bit. Jiraiya-sama, please take care of this place."
"Yes!"
Jiraiya nodded in agreement. The others had no sense of propriety, so how could Minato also lack a sense of propriety?
It was much better to let grandfather and grandson talk alone than to interrupt and say something irrelevant.
Minato then took Boruto and performed the Flying Thunder God technique.
He immediately returned to Lux's side.
❀❀❀
"Sir!"
"Uncle Immortal!"
Both Minato and Boruto greeted Lux, and it was clear that Boruto had met Lux in the future.
But of course, not as close as Sasuke.
"Why did you grandfather and grandson come here alone?"
"Grandfather and grandson?"
Minato was surprised and immediately understood all the hints.
"Sir, do you mean this child is my grandson?!"
Minato rarely lost his composure.
This sudden promotion really shocked him.
It felt like you were still in school and suddenly a little girl appeared and called you dad. Anyone would be shocked.
"Yes. Uzumaki Boruto is your grandson, and Naruto's future child..." Lux answered frankly.
Nothing was hidden.
If Naruto knew too much, it would affect Boruto's normal birth. But Minato from another ninja world and Boruto himself had no such restrictions and could communicate normally.
It wouldn't make a difference if they knew each other's identities.
"Are you really my grandfather?"
Boruto just showed his hand and looked at Minato with increasing curiosity.
Minato pressed his temples, trying to calm himself, then removed his mask.
He looked at Boruto with full emotion.
Now, he finally understood why Boruto and Naruto were so familiar with each other.
He also mastered his signature techniques, the Rasengan and the Flying Thunder God.
This was his own grandson!
There was no sudden warm hug or tears of joy between the two parties.
But after acknowledging each other's identities, the closeness stemming from blood and identity clearly grew stronger.
This made Minato even more concerned about his grandson.
"Sir, did you bring Boruto here?"
"No, they came here from the future on their own."
"The future? Time travel? Is it the same as Naruto in the past? Could it be Ryumyaku?"
Minato was surprised and unconsciously recalled details about the Ryumyaku Mission.
Apparently, he had left a small gap when he sealed his own memories.
Recently, as he frequently traveled to other ninja worlds, he had fully unlocked that memory. He already knew that Naruto from the future had used Ryumyaku to travel to the past.
This made him wonder if Boruto used the same method.
"No. They used another method, as you will learn later."
Minato nodded, without hesitation.
No matter how he returned to the past, he was more concerned about Boruto's own issues.
"Boruto, what did you just say about not having time to learn it?"
"Are you going back soon? You can also go back and learn slowly! What happened there?"
Boruto suddenly fell silent.
"..."
The reason was too complicated. Should he start from the beginning and introduce the tragedy that was supposed to happen in the future?
Moreover, Boruto didn't know if he could tell his grandfather that he and his teacher were destined to be annihilated by the reversal of time and space.
So Boruto looked at Lux.
Because his teacher also told him that as long as it didn't involve unification issues, he could fully trust Immortal Blessing in other aspects!
