Well, I'm going to try to upload every two days, there may be times when I'll be late, but please understand two things.
1) I don't have english as my first language, so it takes me more time to write and correct the chapters. One person commented my fails, and I'm sorry to you all for that. I'll try to do better in that aspect.
2) I don't have much time. I started to study and also work sometimes when something pops up.
That's why, if you like this, please support me adding to library, giving my stones and commenting when you like something or when you think I made a mistake.
Thanks.

Minato POV
The fourth Hokage, that was the position Minato dreamed of obtaining for a long time. It meant that he could do something for his village. Minato Namikaze was a man full of dreams. But his happiness did not end there, his wife, Kushina Uzumaki, had confirmed her pregnancy and they were both looking forward to the arrival of their firstborn.
However, things never go the way you want. Currently, he had realized that, not because he is the Kage of his village, does he have the power to decide everything, politics were more complicated than it appeared. For him, accustomed to how easy it is to take the life of his enemy, entering a world of negotiations, falsehoods, etc., it was a bigger headache than facing A.
On top of that, there was something that couldn't be gotten out of his mind for quite some time, that was the fact of what happened with Rin, how someone unknown saved her, and how this someone seemed to have vital information about internal affairs from the village. That's why, ever since he took office, he's been tasked with finding out who might have leaked such valuable information to a stranger, and while the results of his investigation made him angry about all the corruption he found, he couldn't find anything on the guy.
'The future huh… I don't like how someone is playing with those things…'
For him, who was proficient in space-time jutsu, things that have to do with time are very delicate that he would rather never touch them for fear of the possible consequences that no one would be able to assume in case something goes wrong. It is a topic so unknown that it was terrifying.
That only increased his stress, the worst part is that Tsunade hasn't appeared or contacted him for months. Originally the two of them had been involved in this problem, now he doesn't know if she's okay. The worst thing is that he has no one to trust right now. The issue is so complicated that a mishandling of information could put his mandate at risk, even worse when he has just taken up the mantle.
'Danzo…'
That name haunted him like a plague every day. He felt that whatever he did, that man always had something in mind to take advantage of the situation.
'I see nothing but trouble on the horizon.'
However, despite all the worries he had, the light in his heart was his son who was about to be born.
The day of the birth was scheduled for tomorrow night. Everything was ready and all that remained was to wait.

Tsunade POV
'It wasn't easy, but given the approximate date, the full moon, and what I managed to find out, Naruto's Birth will take place tonight.
I honestly hope that everything is a lie and there is no attack, I have wished for that so many times that I have lost count, but no matter what I wish for, I feel that something will happen.
Just out of curiosity, I decided to bet to see how my luck was and… I won.
But no matter what, my preparations are ready, even if the village is destroyed, I am confident that the human losses will be minimal.
During this period of time, I have been communicating with mister occasionally for the final touches of the plan. Now I'm going to little Lite's house so that he can deliver the last package to me.
I honestly want to know what kind of connection mister and Lite have, but I'm afraid to investigate and give a bad impression, now something too big is about to happen to risk it.'
--------------------------------------------- x X x --------------------------------------------
Lite POV
'Today is the day huh…
I honestly expected things to take longer, but it seems only because I already care about others.'
A while ago Tsunade took the last piece of the plan. I was pretty nervous as I was running out of time and not finishing this thing. My fuinjutsu level is still too basic and if it wasn't for all the time I spent, I wouldn't had fnished this last seal. Then everything would have gone to waste.
This was the soul collector seal, its function is simple, it has to forcefully collect the souls of the 100 captured criminals to offer them to the shinigami as a sacrifice so that he releases Miinato.
Although the function is simple, the fact is that I never work with souls. In my previous world, it was a concept that hadn't been confirmed to exist even with all the existing technology at that time, and that's the reason why it was so complicated, but once I finished it, the second became easier for me. This is a seal in every sense of the word, what it does is seal the soul inside the body so that it cannot leave, this one was for Minato.
On the one hand it will be so that the shinigami cannot absorb Minato's soul and on the other it has a feast of 100, although of lower quality, fresh souls that will be cultivated at the moment.
And finally, there is a transportation seal, which will be used to transport the criminals to the scene of action, after all, you can't walk with 100 guys after you and not raise suspicion. This time I managed to stabilize the tunnel a bit more, and also improved the energy consumption. Although it's still somewhat dangerous to go there, the only reason Rin didn't die was because Tsunade was there to save her. The truth is that she was in very bad condition, luckily my favorite blonde knew how to play along when she saw the message I left for her and thus did not alert Minato.
For all of that, the only reason I can send Tsunade out with peace of mind is because of the seal on her forehead, as long as she can use that, everything will be fine. And as for the other 100, they'll still die, so even if they end up without a few members, it won't be a problem.

3rd person POV
In a place hidden from the public eye, there was a red-haired woman in labor. This was an extremely important event, not only for her, but for the entire Konoha village as a whole. This was because she was the current jinchuuriki of the nine tails, Kushina Uzumaki.
Every time one of these people gave birth, the seal that kept the beasts inside them was weakened, so it was necessary for the seal to be strengthened immediately after the baby was born.
However, when everything was over, a masked person burst into the room, grabbed the baby, and used it as a hostage to escape with Kushina. All of this happened so fast that it seemed like it had never happened, but the bodies scattered around the room said otherwise.

Tsunade POV
She was walking through the streets of Konoha, it was night but the people were still walking through the streets calmly.
The war ended just over a year ago, so the village's economy had not yet recovered. The people still had a gloomy air around them. And it is that overcoming the losses they suffered due to the war was something that would take a long time.
As Tsunade walked through the streets, she looked up and looked at that brilliant circumference that illuminated the darkness of the skies.
The more time passed, the faster her heart beat.
'I can't believe I'm going to do what I'm going to do… I'm betting everything on tonight, please mister, don't let me down.'
While her feelings were in chaos, the seal in her hand sent a signal to her.
With a lot of effort, she had managed to sneak into the place where the birth would be, once there, all she did was place the seal anywhere and her job was done.
She still didn't understand how that worked without anyone noticing. When she received the seals and what she had to do with them, she thought that mister was playing a bad joke on her. This is because the detection seals, at least one as simple as the one he gave her, the kind that fit on a piece of paper, are not used that much, this is because they work by creating a small area where they spread chakra in a very very light way to detect what is happening there .
This can work on genins, but against chunins and anyone of a higher level not, it is impossible to hide such chakra fluctuations, so, much higher level seals are needed for them, and since they occupy a much larger area, they are just used in important sites.
It must be taken into account that even if you reduce the area of the seals, in order for them to reach the size of a piece of paper, they must be less than 50 square meters.
This alone speaks volumes of the complexity of the seals in general, and how genius the second and fourth are at creating something like the flying thunder god jutsu with such a small area. Perhaps if they had dedicated themselves to developing techniques and seals specifically instead of worrying about things like fighting, the level in Konoha for the ninjas in the village to practice and training would have had much higher standards.
But it was precisely because of that complexity that Tsunade couldn't understand what this small thing would achieve, although it was already too late to start thinking about that.
Back on topic, once she received the signal that the seal had detected the intruder, Tsunade proceeded with her plan.
'Everyone, please forgive me, but I'm doing this for your sake, at least I hope it's like that…'
And so, Tsunade Senju, one of the three Konoha sannin, attacked her own village to save them.
Such an irony, while one traitor attacks the village to destroy them, another, who could also be considered traitorous at this point, was attacking the village to save them.
Tsunade did not know where the beast would appear, but thinking a little, she realized that to achieve the greatest amount of destruction, it would have to be in the central area, where the largest number of ninja clans and the civilians with the most economic and political power were concentrated.
With that information, she designed sequential explosions that guide the people and the evacuating ninjas to the nearest shelter points. These were underground and were built in such a way that they were able to protect themselves even against a bijuudama. Of course, it would be of little use against a being like the nine tails, but that was what Miinato was for. He was the main character tonight.
'First sequence in 3…2…1…'
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM**BOOM * *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* * BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM*
A large number of explosions occurred throughout an área, waking up people who were already sleeping and alerting anyone else in the area.
All these explosive papers were made specifically so that their damage is minimal, but does cause a loud sound effect, thus making people panic and believe that the attack was more serious than it actually was. In addition to them being placed in strategic places so that they cause the least amount of damage to the lives of normal people as possible, unfortunately, there were still people who were injured, this was an unavoidable result.
When the explosions ended, she saw everyone running everywhere, however, because it wasn't a single explosion but happened at one-second intervals, they all ran right where she wanted.
The first ninjas were not late to come. She watched as the leaders separated everyone into two groups, one in charge of calming and guiding the people and the other to control the spreading of fire. But that was something that Tsunade couldn't allow, otherwise, everyone would gather in the place again and their evacuation wouldn't happen.

'Second and third sequence in 3…2…1…'
These happened at the same time and also with intervals between each small explosion to make it last longer. One was in another area of the village with the same purpose as the first, that is, to alert everyone and guide them as close as possible to the shelters. And the third occurred in the same area as the first to prevent the ninjas from bringing the fire under control.
'So far everything is going according to plan and about 5 minutes have passed since I received the signal. The strange thing is that it has been activated several times. If it detects spatial distortions then Minato's technique is also included. It seems the fight has already started.
Hmm ... I don't get anything anymore, apparently they moved elsewhere. Well, I'll continue with my part.'
And so, Tsunade began continuing with the explosions. At first, the ninjas did try to control the explosions, but due to how well-planned the attack was, they couldn't do anything. All of that was captured by Tsunade's eyes.
'Zone 3 and 4.'
Tsunade had divided the central area of the village into four zones, each corresponding to each cardinal point, north, south, east and west. In this way, she could take everyone from the center to the periphery.
'I didn't think it was possible but…seriously, being able to control when each seal will explode so precisely is hard to imagine, I'm glad this didn't fall into enemy hands in the war, otherwise Konoha would have been torn apart.'
Just as I thought, this was one of the applications that mister had given to seals. One of the drawbacks of the explosive seals was that they were too direct, you could certainly control when each one went off, but it was done manually, unlike this thing she currently had in her hands, a remote control, and thanks to that she could sit in one place comfortably and from there control everything that happened.
When Lite explained the basic idea of what it was capable of, Tsunade honestly thought he was crazy, but now that she was trying it out first hand she noticed the difference and was internally cursing mister for not providing this kind of technology to Konoha during the war, in this way the casualties would have been unbelievably lower and they would have won in the true sense of the word.
The truth is that he did want to help Konoha during the war, since showing this kind of thing would have made a clear difference with the other villages, of course, at the beginning it would have caused an incredible number of deaths, but in the long run the war would not have lasted so long, the enemies would realize that they would lose more than they gain and would have decided to retreat. Gaining the upper hand in any type of battlefield would have been much easier, the traps that could be set would have increased greatly in variety, and more. That's how big the influence of these types of seals would have been and there's no doubt about it, even the headstrong Tsuchikage gave an order that anyone who finds Minato has to escape, much less with a weapon that any ninja can use.
The truth was that Lite did want to help as long as the war ended as soon as possible. Unfortunately he was born when it was about to end, without giving him any time to even start preparing. Even if he had provided the seals to the village as soon as he could, it would only have increased the greed of Konoha's higher-ups and the end would never have been reached, thus causing more deaths, something completely contrary to what he wanted to achieve. Everything depended on the correct time, and he already had missed the train.
Tsunade, removing all distracting thoughts, paid attention again to what was happening.
'About 10 minutes have passed and the first civilians are already leaving, I don't think it will take long for zone 1 to be free, zone 2, 3 and 4 will take a little longer. I would have preferred to blast all 4 zones simultaneously, but I don't think I would have been able to control the flow of things if I did that. They took too long anyway, but I can't blame them, this is, after all, the first time the village has suffered such an attack.
As Tsunade said, the people were finally being taken to the areas out of danger.
'Time is passing more and more and I don't know how much is left, although it may cause injuries, I'd better speed things up.'
It had been a while since she received the last signal. The truth is that unlike the original, this Obito was not that strong, so even if he wanted to free the nine tails quickly, it was not possible. The willpower that Kushina displayed made the process take longer.
--------------------------------------------- x X x --------------------------------------------
Minato POV
'Everything is a mess. From the attack on Kushina to the explosions all over Konoha, I couldn't understand what the rhythm was. It is as if these two situations were totally independent.
At first, I wanted to look everywhere for Kushina. The guy who attacked us was quick, but his motive was pretty obvious too, so he couldn't leave things as they were. I left the command to Shikaku and hurried on.
But wherever I went, I couldn't find a single clue. I can only admit that the enemy's technique is really advanced.'

Shikaku POV
'Out of nowhere, an explosion sounded, followed by another and another and another successively. I couldn't believe someone would attack us like this. What immediately surprised me the most was how this was even possible. The war had recently ended and the defenses had been kept high since although we all believed that there would be no attack, the main objective of this measure was to calm the population.
It's like the attacker has access to the village's confidential information.'
It must be safely said that Shikaku Nara truly deserved to be someone whose intelligence was among the best in the entire ninja world, if not the best. Only moments had passed since the attack began and he had already analyzed everything that could be analyzed.
'Damm, Shikamaru was just born recently, I can't let anything bad happen now.'
He immediately sent an alert message to his entire clan and began to organize them.
While listening to the noise of the explosions in the background, he finished instructing everyone and immediately headed to organize the village force. The surprising thing was that all this took no more than a few minutes. It can be said that although the Nara are considered a lazy group, when an emergency occurs, they are quite quick to react.
As soon as he arrived at the Hokage's tower, he met Minato, who was carrying a baby in his arms, who he assumed was his son who had just been born.
— Fourth, do you know what happened? (Shikaku)
— There is no time for explanations. Kushina is in danger. We were attacked as soon as Naruto was born and they took her somewhere. I presume the attacker is after the nine tails. I have to go find her. I entrust Naruto to you. I don't know what's going on here but I leave you in charge. (Minato)
— Understood.
In just a few words, what was necessary was said and each one went to do what the situation best required.
Shikaku immediately began to guide the ninjas, first to control the fire in the damaged areas and evacuate people since he believed the attack consisted only of what Tsunade had designated as "zone 1", however, he later realized that every time someone tried to approach the damaged area, a new explosion would take place. And then elsewhere there were new explosions.
'I don't understand, if they want to cause as much damage as possible then they should have detonated all at once.'
Shikaku was confused as the pattern was not that of an attack.
'It's like they're guiding us. I see…'
As more explosions happened and reports came in, he analyzed marking everything on the map.
'All the explosions so far have been in the central part of the village and started specifically in the north, from the inside out. I see… they are trying to get us out of the central zone, but not anywhere, they are guiding us specifically to the shelters. However, this proves what I feared, someone from the high-ups is behind this, or at least an accomplice, otherwise, it is impossible for them to know where the escapes are, even the hidden ones.
Now, there are two possibilities, either they guide us there to come together and finish us all in one blow, or… they are guiding us there to protect us. From what? Kushina was kidnapped. The nine tails…
As long as the village is prepared we can take on that beast… I see, whoever it is, it's creating a battle zone.
I don't know who you are, but there have already started to be injured, I don't have time to doubt. It doesn't matter, even if there was an attack, the shelters were secretly reinforced by Minato, only he and I know. So there is not much to fear.
Taking everything into account, it will be better to follow the plan of whoever is leading us.
If it's what I think it is, then all the low-ranking ninjas, genins, and chunin will need to retreat as well.'
--------------------------------------------- x X x --------------------------------------------
Tsunade POV
'20 minutes passed and I was finally able to visualize how a person appeared in the middle of the village.
I had hidden in the center with the help of another of mister's seals. Seriously, at this point, I'm going to go crazy with everything he can do.
That person looked tired, apparently, he didn't have a good time dealing with Kushina.
I want to immediately go and give him a good punch, unfortunately, I could see his ability with my own eyes, as it appeared out of nowhere.
And I saw, how he made the summoning seals… and the beast appeared.'
— So he didn't lie to me huh... If I hadn't made all this scandal, the casualties would have been great.
'The most frustrating thing is knowing something and not being able to do anything…'
--------------------------------------------- x X x --------------------------------------------
3rd person POV
Minato, as originally written, rushed to confront the kyuubi, only this time there was no confrontation between him and the attacker, he only escaped.
He was able to deflect their attacks and protected the village, like the hero he is.
At the end of the battle Kushina, using her last strength, managed to stop the monster for a short period of time, and the fourth decided to give away his life to save the village and his wife.
However, things never go as planned. The skies are jealous of the heroes, the more one shines, the more they want to destroy it.
The Nine Tails' last attack, in a moment of carelessness, pierced through the fourth and Kushina.
This day will, for years to come, mark the anniversary of the death of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki, heroes of Konoha.
