Konoha: From being adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 36 The World Forgot Me

Natsu had just bid farewell to Uzumaki Naruto, when his whereabouts were reported to Sarutobi Hiruzen by Anbu Ninja.

As Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, it was natural that someone would protect him personally.

If Naruto Uzumaki knew, he might be shaken again.

Seeing himself being beaten, he didn't help.

"Natsume is indeed a good kid."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at the information silently, and there were two things written on it.

One is that Natsume rescued Uzumaki Naruto who was bullied by a bear child.

The second is that he arranged for the owner of Gunma Casino to take care of Naruto Uzumaki.

To open a shop in Konoha, you have to go through an audit.

Otherwise, it is easy to sneak into the spy.

Natsume filled in Tsunade as the person in charge of the casino.

Anyway, she is addicted to gambling, and controlling a casino will not cause too much repercussions.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi praised Natsume because he didn't directly give Naruto Uzumaki something, but sold it to him, taking into account the child's self-esteem.

At the same time, it also reflects his own excellent character.

But I have to say that Natsume's contact with Uzumaki Naruto was beyond his expectations.

According to Sarutobi Hiruzen's vision, before going to school, he will be the only reliance of Kyuubi Jinchuriki.

After that, let Naruto Uzumaki have some reliable teachers and friends.

In this case, it is the best arrangement for him.

If the Kyuubi goes berserk unfortunately in the future, Uzumaki Naruto can rely on the fetters cultivated since childhood to awaken his feelings for Konoha and his friends, stop the runaway in time, and avoid the worst situation.

The only omission that occurred was that Danzo Shimura stepped in and spread the news that Naruto Uzumaki was the incarnation of the demon fox.

Sarutobi Hiruza wanted to stop it, but later he acquiesced.

Because it's good for his plan.

The indifference of the villagers can accelerate Naruto Uzumaki's feelings for him, and he can also firmly grasp this powerful weapon.

Sarutobi Hiruzen naturally knew that his life was difficult now.

But these are necessary sacrifices.

As long as he gets through these few years, Naruto Uzumaki will no longer be alone.

"I'm old."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi stood up and looked at Konoha outside the window.

With age, his energy is not as good as before.

If Naruto Uzumaki was an ordinary kid, he would have made him grow up as the son of a hero.

But he is Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Konoha's strongest weapon, and he is born to bear the responsibility of dealing with it, so he can't live so leisurely.

As for Natsume, it's okay to contact Uzumaki Naruto.

According to Sarutobi's vision, the fifth Hokage is either Jiraiya or Tsunade.

Orochimaru is really good in strength, but he has a problem with his heart and is not suitable for Hokage.

Not to mention Shimura Danzo, he can be excluded just because of his age.

It's just that Zilai is also confined to the so-called son of prophecy, wandering outside all day.

Tsunade also suffers from blood phobia, making it difficult for him to be a normal ninja.

Fortunately, she is back to normal now.

Sarutobi Hiruza would like to become Hokage even more, but in reality, Tsunade's chances are relatively high.

Natsume, as her apprentice, will come into contact with Nine Tails Jinchuriki sooner or later.

Besides, his performance in school can be regarded as an excellent successor of the Will of Fire.

"Just in case, go see Naruto."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi thought, changed his clothes, left Hokage's office, and went straight to Naruto's house.

"Is Naruto at home?"

After a while, Naruto Uzumaki opened the door.

"grandfather!"

He smiled happily.

"Why are you so happy today? Did you encounter something interesting? Tell grandpa."

Sarutobi Hiruza said with a smile.

The expressions on his face are all playing the role of a kind grandfather.

"Yes."

Uzumaki Naruto took out instant noodles and said, "I met a very nice big brother today, and he is willing to sell me something!"

Hiruzaru Sarutobi smiled when he heard the words, it was basically the same as the information.

It seems that Natsume didn't say anything strange.

"By the way! Grandpa, today I found that the third statue on Hokage Rock is very similar to you. Are you Hokage?"

Uzumaki Naruto looked at him expectantly.

So far, he has not doubted Hiruzaru Sarutobi because of Natsume's words.

Instead, he's excited to know he's Hokage.

Hiruzaru Sarutobi immediately raised his chin slightly, and said with dignity, "I am indeed Hokage."

He often tells the story of Konoha's construction of the village and the will of fire.

Under his influence, Naruto yearned for Hokage very much.

He didn't reveal his identity before because of this moment.

Transfer the longing for Hokage to him as the current Hokage.

"Wow!"

Uzumaki Naruto ran up to him at once, staring non-stop, his eyes full of admiration.

"Grandpa Hokage, do you think I can be Hokage?"

He remembered the three brats mocking him in the morning.

"OK."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi smiled and said, "As long as you have the determination and courage to protect Konoha, I believe you will become Hokage."

"Great!"

The recognition from Hokage made Naruto Uzumaki extremely excited.

But soon, he became a little lost.

"I want to protect everyone, but everyone always speaks ill of me, saying that I am a demon fox. Grandpa Hokage, am I really a demon fox?"

"you are not."

Hiruzaru Sarutobi looked at him pitifully and felt a little guilty, and thought that he should stop the rumors, so he said, "Don't worry, from tomorrow on, no one will call you a demon fox again."

"Really? Thank you Grandpa!"

Uzumaki Naruto immediately showed a bright smile.

Sure enough, Grandpa Hokage was too busy to notice before.

I can go to the village normally tomorrow!
However, the next day, when he rushed to the street, no one really talked about him, but no one paid attention to him either.

When everyone saw him, they immediately looked disgusted, as if they encountered something unclean, they hurried away.

If it was 'the world forgot me' before, now it is 'the world forgot me'.

The situation did not get better as he expected, and everyone did not accept him, but avoided him.

The feeling of loneliness grew stronger.

Uzumaki Naruto was at a loss.

He wants to be Hokage and protect everyone.

But is it really worth it?
[Because of your behavior, Naruto Uzumaki's fate has changed, and you get eighteen points of fate. 】

Natsume, who was practicing wood escape ninjutsu, scattered the chakra in his hand.

Eighteen o'clock, relatively few.

He guessed that the last conversation should have played a role, Uzumaki Naruto was a little shaken by Sarutobi Hiruzen.

But not too much, you have to add more fire.

Get this done before you go to the battlefield.

Natsume wiped the sweat from his brow.

Recently, Tsunade has picked out the mission, but she hasn't started yet because she has to make some preparations.

For example, making Jiedu pills or Bingliang pills.

Natsume didn't go directly to Uzumaki Naruto, it was too easy to arouse suspicion.

He asked Zheng Yu, the person in charge of the Gunma Casino, to wait for him to come to buy things, and then notify him in time.

It didn't take long, only three days.

Uzumaki Naruto came to the Gunma Casino.

In fact, his purpose is not to buy things, but to see Natsume.

He had a hard time these days, so he thought of this big brother who was kind to him.
