Minato (The 4th Hokage)
Background According to those who knew him, Minato was a very talented ninja, having been considered a genius that appeared once a generation. He graduated from the Ninja Academy at the age of ten, and was added to a Genin team under the tutelage of Jiraiya. Jiraiya took a special interest in Minato, and accepted him as an apprentice, amongst other teaching him the Summoning Technique.
In later years, Minato was put in charge of a Genin team of his own, consisting of 카카시 선생님 Hatake, Rin and Obito Uchiha.
Konoha's Yellow Flash During 카카시 선생님 Gaiden, set during the Third Great Shinobi World War, Minato led his team on a mission into Kusagakure. Because 카카시 선생님 had recently become a Jonin, Minato gave leadership of the mission to Kakashi, while he went to help Konoha's forces on the front lines. Before leaving, he gave 카카시 선생님 a special kunai as a congratulatory present, outfitted with the 봉인, 인감 used for his Flying Thunder God Technique.
While helping his fellow Konoha ninja, he used the Flying Thunder God Technique to wipe out all of the opposing Iwagakure ninja in an instant. He returned to 카카시 선생님 in time to save him from another group of Iwagakure ninja, but could not save Obito. When 카카시 선생님 and Rin recovered from the ordeal, Minato helped them complete the task of destroying the Kannabi Bridge.
Fourth Hokage Some time after the war ended, Minato was chosen 의해 Hiruzen Sarutobi, the Third Hokage, to lead as the Fourth Hokage before he was even 30 years of age.[1] During his reign, he had a relationship with Kushina Uzumaki, who would later become pregnant with his son. After 읽기 Jiraiya's book, where the main character was named Naruto, Minato and Kushina decided to name their son "Naruto", in the hopes that he would grow up to be just like the 나루토 of the book (Jiraiya's). This, in turn, made Jiraiya Naruto's godfather.
Soon after 나루토 was born, the Nine-Tailed Demon 여우 attacked Konoha. Minato rushed to the village's help, where he and Gamabunta faced off against the demon fox, but the beast's power could not be matched. Recognizing that the demon 여우 was being controlled 의해 Madara Uchiha, Minato decided to defeat it and give Konoha the means to combat Madara if he should ever attack the village again. He used the Dead Demon Consuming 봉인, 인감 to 봉인, 인감 the demon 여우 into Naruto's body, hoping that 나루토 would someday be able to make use of its power. The act cost Minato his life, and he died as the village's greatest hero.
Personality Jiraiya and Tsunade pointed out that, while 나루토 physically bears great resemblance to Minato, his personality and style of Ninjutsu are almost identical to his mother. While 나루토 is boisterous and relatively thick, Minato was calm, collected, and a natural genius. When faced with an enemy, he could kill in cold blood, and seemed well aware of the terror his reputation inspired in his foes. He appeared to be respectful of those around him, as he was reproachful of freely speaking of others' pasts, and was said to have been a very nice person.
Jiraiya had said that Minato was a shrewd person, and was not the type to do something without reason. All in all, Minato was known for his unbeatable determination and 믿을 수 없는 drive, which he passed onto his son. Minato's devotion to the village and his 사랑 for his 프렌즈 inspired all those around him, and as such, he became well-liked 의해 the villagers. He was nevertheless understanding of the fact that 나루토 might hold some animosity for him for sealing the demon 여우 within him.
Legacy Minato's dying wish was for Konoha to view 나루토 as a hero who had helped defeat the demon fox, rather than the host of the monster that had attacked the village. However, few of the villagers would honor this request, leaving 나루토 to grow up as an outcast of the village. During the course of the series, 나루토 is able to change how the villagers view him for the better, but at the same time must combat the demon 여우 sealed within him. All the while, 나루토 would never know who his parents were, Hiruzen feeling it was best that the world not know who Naruto's father was.
With Minato's death, Hiruzen was forced to resume his position as Hokage, due to Minato not being able to choose his successor. He made a decree that forbade the villagers from speaking aloud that 나루토 was the container of the demon fox, hoping that the villagers' children would not shun him as their parents did. He otherwise tried to make Naruto's life as comfortable as he could, being one of the few people to appreciate him and putting up with his mischievous deeds.
During the sealing process, Minato 스플릿, 분할 the demon fox's chakra in two, giving 나루토 access to the Yang chakra and permanently cutting off access to the Yin. He left Jiraiya a key to the 봉인, 인감 that kept the demon 여우 sealed within Naruto, to be used to strengthen it whenever it began to weaken. As a final safety measure, he left an imprint of himself within Naruto's subconscious that would react whenever the 봉인, 인감 was on the verge of breaking. This imprint could watch 나루토 grow up and had the one-time ability of returning the 봉인, 인감 to its original strength.
