UK:GSW Chapter 308: Minato Namikaze Needs Lots of Talent, While Uchiha Kei Only Needs Support

Naruto was growing very quickly—so quickly it could even be called absurd.

However, considering his performance in the original work, such rapid growth was only natural, because he really was a guy who could grow quickly.

Whether in terms of strength or ideology, as long as Naruto received proper and profound guidance, he could show a growth rate above others and have his own understanding and ideas.

Don’t be fooled by this guy’s outward appearance as a poor student. Especially after several years of traveling and training with Jiraiya, this was when Naruto grew the fastest.

So, with Minato Namikaze’s hands‑on guidance and accompaniment, plus Uchiha Kei’s tailor‑made study courses for him, Naruto could absorb brand‑new knowledge and turn it into his own use at an incredible speed.

Moreover, those study courses included direct experiential parts. For someone like Naruto, who had top‑level “experiential” talent, it was like having turned on a top student’s study system, giving him ultimate learning efficiency.

Therefore, high‑speed growth was the effect Naruto achieved in the learning space.

For such a situation, Minato Namikaze, as an old father, was naturally very gratified and happy.

The joy of accompanying his dear son to grow and improve was a brand‑new experience, which made Minato Namikaze inevitably conjure up a thought: when the Naruto of the main world is born, he also has to accompany his child to grow in this way.

Mm, at present this thought only echoed in Minato Namikaze’s heart and he hadn’t told others. If Uchiha Kei were to know, he would surely complain speechlessly that the father‑son relationship between the future main world’s Naruto and Minato would definitely be very bad.

The alternate world Naruto could accept this study atmosphere because for him it was a painful yet joyous experience. He was a child who had lacked love since childhood and longed for time spent with his father.

So, even though the learning life he experienced was fully pressured, Naruto at most only complained verbally and then continued to study earnestly, and very much cherished the beautiful time of studying with Minato Namikaze.

This study life for Naruto was a journey of tribulations, but also a beautiful time that made up for his childhood.

If the future main world’s Naruto were treated like this when he was born, the child would definitely be under so much pressure that his rebellious phase would arrive early. At that time, that legendary child of prophecy might very well make the world feel pain.

It should be known that although Naruto is the protagonist, his character and life aren’t necessarily bound to grow as in the manga.

In various Naruto animations they’ve shown other versions of Naruto through abilities like limited Tsukuyomi and Infinite Tsukuyomi, and many of them are personalities completely different.

In fact, as long as either Minato Namikaze or Kushina Uzumaki is alive, Naruto’s character would be different from the original. Not to mention in the current main world, Naruto was destined to be a happy guy with both parents alive, and this setting had a template—Menma Uzumaki, who appeared in a Naruto movie.

He was a genius version of Naruto, who, under Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki’s companionship and cultivation, became the best among his peers.

But, because of being too outstanding, his personality somehow twisted, and he became a big villain who wanted to make the world feel pain and even succeeded in doing what Madara Uchiha couldn’t—destroying the Leaf.

So if Minato Namikaze really raised his future child in this way, he might foster another Menma.

Of course, all this is in the future, and with Uchiha Kei watching, it’s impossible to let that happen. Right now it’s just Minato Namikaze mulling this extreme accompaniment in his head.

In fact, compared with accompanying his child, through Naruto’s practical study experience, Minato Namikaze truly felt the power of the learning space.

Because, after being with his dear son, Minato Namikaze knew very well Naruto’s essence as a poor student.

For such a poor student to grow so much in such a short time with the help of the learning space, it meant that by using this function, one could almost guarantee cultivating excellent innovative talent in a short time.

Previously, although he knew the learning space was powerful, because even the weakest users of it were geniuses like Kikyo, Minato Namikaze didn’t have a clear understanding of how powerful it was.

Especially after deeply understanding how big the resistance to what he wanted to do would be and what difficulties he would encounter, Minato Namikaze realized that his cause wasn’t just about cultivating some geniuses but required large numbers of ordinary talent.

They didn’t need to be extremely outstanding, but they had to have a basic quality, needed to go through basic training, and possess firm belief and will. Only thus could they truly bring change to the shinobi world.

Because only by having large numbers of grassroots personnel could management abilities penetrate into the grassroots and ensure smooth management in all aspects. Otherwise, even if reforms were completed at the top, if the reform forces couldn’t reach the grassroots, it would just be new wine in old bottles.

So, after realizing that the learning space had a very strong educational ability even for poor students, Minato Namikaze understood that the key to his dream of reforming the shinobi world lay in the learning space.

Thus Minato Namikaze went to Uchiha Kei and told his best friend of his realization and understanding.

After understanding what Minato Namikaze meant, Uchiha Kei wasn’t surprised; rather, it was natural.

After all, using the learning space to train talent was something they had long decided in their small group.

It’s just that in the past, the idea was to use the learning space to cultivate outstanding research talent and some people who could help manage the Hidden Leaf Village. In the past, Uchiha Kei hadn’t yet awakened the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, so his strength wasn’t enough, and his progress in developing the spiritual network world was insufficient. He couldn’t easily pull others into the learning space; he had to grant them a slot to enter the spiritual network world.

As for now, it’s no longer a problem. After awakening the Eternal Mangekyō, Uchiha Kei used these new powerful eyes to perform new development on the spiritual network world and really came up with quite a few new functions.

One of these was the “guest slot.”

“Guest slot” is a term from the internet, used the most in games that require registration.

Such games allow players to skip registration and experience the game first. Players don’t need to register an account to enter the game; they just click to play, and the game back end gives the player an invisible temporary ID so they can play in this state.

If the player later feels the game is fun, they will register a formal account, and the temporary ID will directly become a formal ID. If the player doesn’t like it and leaves, after a period the temporary ID is taken back and serves the next player.

This is guest mode.

The same thing in the spiritual network world means Uchiha Kei could give some people a temporary ID, letting them use the spiritual network world as “guests.”

However, under guest mode most functions couldn’t be used; to use them, one needed to be accompanied by a formal member.

For example, Tamamo‑no‑Mae taking the alternate Nine‑Tails, and Minato Namikaze taking Naruto.

Yes, whether the alternate Nine‑Tails or Naruto, Uchiha Kei only gave these two guest identities and not formal membership.

After all, those two, one man and one fox, were newcomers. Even with the filter of the original work, Uchiha Kei couldn’t just directly give them benefits that only old-timers had.

Perhaps in the future Uchiha Kei would give one man and one fox formal membership, but definitely not now. Moreover, those two were from a parallel world and would return sooner or later.

Even if Uchiha Kei had plans to sell Genjutsu games in the parallel world, that was still only a plan. Whether it would work depended on the results of Orochimaru’s research. When it really worked, it wouldn’t be too late to give them formal membership; otherwise, giving it now and taking it back later would hurt everyone’s feelings.

So initially giving guest identity and then giving formal membership when appropriate in the future was best.

Back to the point, after hearing Minato Namikaze’s experiential insight, Uchiha Kei thought and asked, “So, Minato, do you want to use the learning space to cultivate a large number of people who can carry out the shinobi world reform with you?”

Minato Namikaze nodded earnestly. “What I’m going to do is essentially to take the lives of those daimyos and nobles, and revolution is not a dinner party, nor pure destruction.

“Although the Leaf’s strength is very strong now, if we really fought, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say we could defeat the entire shinobi world. But after defeating those vested interest groups, the shinobi world would have large power vacuums. If we didn’t have enough power to fill those vacuums, everything we did would end up being stepping stones for others.

“In the learning space, Naruto and I experienced a large revolution replica of a country called Gaul in another world and personally witnessed the failure of the Gaul Revolution. So we must avoid that happening.

“To achieve this, a large number of grassroots management personnel is a must. Only with large numbers of grassroots personnel can we fill those power vacuums so that the power of reform extends everywhere.”

He paused and gave a bitter smile. “Actually, I already experienced this in the Land of Roran. Roran is such a small country, and I wanted to change it and let the commoners there live good lives. Yet I found that even if I could control the great nobles, it was very difficult to extend power to the grassroots.

“I used shadow clones to carry out reforms there but found I was hampered everywhere. And this wasn’t obstruction from unwilling higher‑ups, but simply that the policies we wanted to push needed people to implement them, and Roran’s grassroots administrators were really…”

He shook his head at the end, his face not looking good, clearly disgusted by those inefficient and corrupt systems.

What made Minato Namikaze most unable to hold it together was that clearly many of his policies couldn’t be implemented, but because part of them were implemented, allowing the lower class of Roran to get a bit of the scraps from the upper class, they were extremely grateful to the polity he controlled, and their support skyrocketed. As a result, the grassroots administrators gained confidence, felt that they had done well, and then more vigorously undermined his policies, forming a vicious cycle.

Such experiences left a deep impression on Minato Namikaze and made him understand that reform couldn’t be carried out from the top down. It needed a complete revolution, and to achieve that required lots of talent.

Especially after accompanying Minato Namikaze to study and grow together and experiencing many things in the learning space, the realization was even more profound.

Facing Minato Namikaze’s helplessness and complaints, Uchiha Kei’s expression remained calm. After all, he had anticipated this situation. At most some people’s operations would widen his horizons, but overall it wouldn’t exceed expectations.

After all, in the humiliating century of modern history in the country where Uchiha Kei originally lived before crossing, many people used the method of exhaustive trial to save the country, and all kinds of situations had been seen.

At this, Uchiha Kei asked, “So, Minato, have you made up your mind and are you prepared? You should know that what you want to do will truly touch the core interests of those noble classes. At that time you will certainly be an enemy of the world, and even conservatives in the Leaf like Homura Mitokado, Koharu Utatane, and even the Third Hokage will oppose you.”

To this, Minato Namikaze calmly nodded. “I had the resolve for this kind of thing when I decided to change Roran. Moreover, although the Third Hokage and others might oppose me, they can’t truly oppose me. After all, when it comes to tradition, who better represents tradition than Lord First Hokage and Lord Second Hokage?”

At the end he even laughed mischievously, showing a hint of scheming.

This was not a reaction one would expect from the “Little Sun,” and it was proof of Minato Namikaze’s growth. Without such changes in mentality, how could he transform the shinobi world?

And what Minato said hit the soft underbelly of the Leaf’s conservatives. After all, for Konoha’s special and strange polity, when the First and Second Hokage both chose to support Minato Namikaze, and the soon‑to‑ascend Fourth Hokage Tsunade and her two fellow Sannin students, as well as the Uchiha clan and other clans, all chose to support Minato Namikaze, the so‑called conservatives were completely a joke.

Uchiha Kei just smiled and said, “Then leave the matter of the learning space to me! Next, I’ll make a special learning seal scroll using the way I make Genjutsu games. Although it can’t super-accelerate time like the ‘Genjutsu world,’ I can still speed up the time flow a little inside.”

“By then, with these learning scrolls, Minato, you can find some trustworthy people yourself and start training talent.”

Such simple words represented Uchiha Kei’s full support for Minato Namikaze.

Minato Namikaze heard this and showed a gentle, sunny smile, and he and Uchiha Kei knocked fists, letting everything be understood without words.
