My name is Naruto

Chapter 230 A Special Intersection

"Then, since you know my name, boy, shouldn't you also report your name?"

This is a word that asks the question knowingly.

But sometimes.

It must be to pretend to be confused.

Jilai also knew Naruto's identity.

Naruto also knew that Jilai also knew his identity.

But at this moment.

There is no prior negotiation.

The two must treat it as if they are meeting for the first time, as if they just met each other.

"Ah, this is really my rudeness. My name is Uzumaki Naruto, Konoha Shinobi who just graduated this year! Please give me your advice, Mr. Ziraiya."

Naruto bowed slightly and said softly.

"Uzumaki Naruto?"

Jiraiya also thought of Naruto's name in his heart.

Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina's voice and appearance came to mind again.

Regarding the situation of my disciple couple.

I will still feel guilty.

12 years ago, during the Kyuubi riots, Minato and Kushinai died, leaving only one orphan. When Jilai learned about it, Jilai immediately returned to the village. Details unknown to ordinary people, Zilai Lai also knew 100% of it. At that time, Jirai also offered to raise Naruto himself, but the third Hokage did not agree. He rejected it on the grounds that Naruto's special status is better, and it is better to dilute it. .

We have no way of knowing whether Sandai Hokage's approach is out of good intentions or malicious.

Maybe it really wants to give Naruto a normal environment for children to grow up.

Or really dark.

I want Naruto to trust me alone, so that I can train Naruto to be a 'weapon' only for myself!
Anyway, there is no definite answer in the original book.

But it can be inferred from the process and results.

Three generations of Hokage's approach is actually too stupid.

Naruto was ostracized.

There is even bullying.

Not to mention whether the darkness is not darkness.

At least it is certain that Naruto's childhood was not good, especially for the son of a hero.

And it's the orphan of a village leader!

And on Jiraiya's side?
It is because he believes in his mentor, and then chooses to travel again Jiraiya, in the past 12 years, he has returned several times, secretly observed Naruto in private, and also has a little understanding of Naruto's life , the more he understood, the guilt in Jiraiya's heart became more intense, but Jiraiya also couldn't blatantly confront his mentor.

And seeing Naruto 'reluctantly' can be said to have grown up normally.

This Konoha hero could only choose to deceive himself.

It's just that the guilt in my heart still exists.

In the past three or four years, Jiraiya has not returned to Konoha Village for a long time because of important matters. This time, he chose to come back because of the news that Orochimaru suddenly appeared in the Chunin Exam. Naruto, who has grown into an adult, wears a Konoha forehead protector, and the special emotion in Jiraiya's heart naturally surges out directly. On the surface, there is no slight abnormality revealed, but deep down in his heart The violent tumbling emotions have and only come from themselves, and they are clear to themselves. (There is no similar information confession in the original book, let alone such a direct description of Jiraiya's mood swings, but Xiaoye feels that, in comparison, Jiraiya should be regarded as the most affectionate and righteous type of person, and he did not choose to take care of him. Naruto, there is a high probability that it is because he has such a good-natured personality, so it is more difficult to be sandwiched between his mentor and disciple. Of course, the above is the author's own second guess, and the words of the family are not taken seriously.)
"Then, since Master Jiraiya has something to do, then I won't bother you."

Naruto bowed slightly again, now Naruto doesn't plan to have too much communication with Jiraiya, because Naruto can't be sure how much love Jilai has for Konoha Village, or the teacher with the third Hokage. How deep is the bondage?
It's not just a matter of planning.

The same is true of your own tendencies, so you can't let Zilai know.

Because this is an indeterminate expansion.

In the original book, Jiraiya did teach Naruto everything.

The relationship between the two is indeed as close and harmonious as that of grandparents.

But that was in the original book.

That was the establishment Naruto wanted to be Hokage.

Want to become a hero recognized by everyone in Konoha Village.

Not now.

Naruto wants to destroy all ninja villages including Konoha!
Build the ideal country in his mind.

Again, the so-called reform is not only too complicated, but also prone to problems.

Destroying is the most worry-free and labor-saving way.

Naturally, it can be less troublesome, just a little less.

The Chunin exam is coming to an end.

When your plan is about to be implemented.

Even if you have a record.

Naruto still doesn't intend to be mixed into too many complicated factors.

The necessary greetings are indispensable.

leftover.

Or choose to avoid it.

only.

Naruto thought so.

Zirai will not let Naruto get what he wants.

"Hey! Don't be so anxious to leave. I just returned to the village. Your name is Uzumaki Naruto, right? Is it okay to call you Naruto?"

Jiraiya also directly shouted to Naruto who wanted to leave.

There was a familiar smile on his face, at least in Naruto's eyes, and he said with a smile.

"Of course you can, Mr. Ziraiya."

Although I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Zilaiye's gourd.

Naruto replied softly with a slightly vigilant look.

And this subtle vigilance mentality.

It is also captured by Jilai, who has keen perception.

It's just that I didn't care about it.

Instead, it will feel normal.

According to the general habit in the ninja world.

Jiraiya's identity in the entire Konoha Village can be said to be that he doesn't need to give face to anyone except the third Hokage.

The same is true for Danzo Shimura and those two advisors.

And Naruto is just a ninja.

difference in identity.

With such an attitude, it is reasonable for Naruto to be wary.

It's just that Zilai also has his own plans.

"It's not suitable for talking here, let's change places."

He seemed to have noticed that someone was coming from another location.

Zilai also coughed lightly and said so.

Immediately, he turned around and headed northwest.

It seems that there is no concern that Naruto will not follow at all.

And in fact it is.

Looking at Jiraiya's figure walking towards the distance like a leisurely stroll.

Naruto sighed helplessly inwardly.

It can only be forced to keep up.

didn't go very far.

Just came to the relatively remote corner of Muye Village.

A location with a small cliff waterfall.

after arriving.

When turning around.

Looking at Naruto who can always follow behind him.

Jiraiya's pupils also flashed a faint look of relief.

Don't look at this short distance.

Zilai is somewhat more serious.

But Naruto can easily follow behind him.

And looking at it like this, it also looks like it has spare energy.

Just such a little performance.

This Konoha hero can also see that Naruto's foundation is very solid.
