Naruto just wants to be a god of death.

Chapter 65 Uchiha Itachi, coming! (Please read~Please vote~)

In the crowd, a little boy broke free from his mother's hand and ran out.

He imitated the man who was sitting on the ground, knelt down in front of Naruto, and said loudly, "Hero, can you stay in our village?"

Naruto looked at him, "You want me to stay?"

"Pirates." It seemed that he had used up all his strength to make the request. Now his voice was weak and limp. "There are more pirates than just these people."

"Our village is robbed by pirates every few days."

"Even if you move to another place, they will still find you."

"My father died at the hands of other pirates."

"Hero! Stay in the village and protect us!"

Naruto didn't hesitate and shook his head: "Why should I stay."

The little boy looked up, a little confused. He had clearly given this answer once before: "Because there will be pirates! They will come to rob our village and kill other people in the village."

Naruto looked at him and nodded, "Yeah, there will be pirates."

"I killed this wave today, and another wave will appear in a few days."

"Even if I kill all the pirates now, new people will become pirates in a few years."

The little boy was confused and could hardly understand what was said.

"I want to stay to protect you, but how long should I stay?" Naruto asked him, "There will always be pirates, so should I stay forever?"

The little boy opened his mouth.

He was tempted to say "Why not".

but.
It's hard to say such words.

"I have my own things to do too." Naruto said softly, his tone gentle, "Those are very important things to me."

"It's something as important as your desire to protect the village."

The little boy's eyes were red and he clenched his fists anxiously.

"Why should you beg others to protect you?" Naruto squatted down and raised his hand to touch his head. "If you want results, why don't you just do it yourself?"

"I want to protect the people I want to protect."

"Just use your own hands."

The little boy gritted his teeth and said, "But I don't have that much power."

Naruto stopped talking and formed hand seals to perform the technique.

"Ninjutsu, summoning technique."

Summons two blank scrolls.

He wrote something on it and placed it in front of the little boy.

The little boy looked at the scroll, then raised his head and looked at Naruto with a questioning look in his eyes.

"Can you read?" Naruto asked him.

The little boy shook his head: "I can't do it yet, but the village chief can."

Naruto patted his head and said, "Then learn to read first."

"Then learn what's on the scroll."

"This is a chakra refining technique, as well as some taijutsu and sword techniques."

“Try to make yourself stronger.”

After he finished speaking, he stood up and left with Karin.

The little boy stood up, holding the scroll, bowed to him, and shouted, "Thank you, hero!"

The golden hair in her eyes shone brightly, just like the sun.

Naruto didn't even turn around, just waved at him.

The two left the village.

Karin tilted her head and stared at Naruto: "Are we not going to be ninjas anymore?"

"Why do you want to be a ninja?" Naruto asked back.

Karin looked ahead: "I thought you wanted to rebuild the Whirlpool Country and the Whirlpool Village."

Naruto whispered, repeating the words: "Rebuild Uzushio Village."

"Maybe in the future, maybe not."

"But before I make a decision, I need to understand one thing."

Xianglin kicked the gravel on the roadside and said, "What do you want to find out?"

"What is the meaning of ninja's existence?" Naruto took a big step forward.

This is an overlooked but significant question.

In Soul Society, "What is the meaning of the existence of the God of Death?" This is a question with a very clear answer.

That is to maintain the stability of the "three realms". The real world, Soul Society, and Hueco Mundo.
These are the three realms that make up the entire "world".

But what is the meaning of ninja's existence?
In Konoha's education.
The purpose of "Ninja"'s existence is to complete the mission.

The education that Karin received in Kusa-nin was not much different.

Can.
This is just the meaning of the existence of "ninja" as a "tool", not the meaning of ninja itself.

Xianglin lowered her head and looked at the clothes she was wearing.

She thought that there was nothing wrong with not being a ninja, but her mother was a ninja, so she instinctively thought that she was born to be a ninja.

During the days that Naruto and I were away from Konoha, we didn't live like ninjas at all.

There's nothing ninja-like about her attire.

But these few days were the happiest and most enjoyable days she had ever had since she was born.

Then don't be a ninja.

She quickened her pace and followed behind Naruto.

On their way to find the "Ninja Village Ruins", they realized that there were many bandits in this land.

There is almost no room for good people here.

When I ran into people, they were always fighting.

Naruto and Karin will watch.

If both parties were villains, then Naruto would just pass by and ignore them.

If one side bullies the other, Naruto will intervene to stop it.

Konoha Coast.

"Even Zetsu could detect it." Kisame tore open the scroll and read the information. "Is the perception ability so strong?"

"Let's go to the Land of Whirlpools."

Uchiha Itachi did not agree with his words, but looked at the island vaguely visible in the distance.

"Let's go, Itachi. There are some problems with your previous judgment." Kisame put away the scroll, "The departure of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is not a false news released by Konoha to confuse people."

"But, he is definitely very strong."

"The news about killing Orochimaru is most likely not false."

"At such a young age, you have the strength to rival the Sannin. You really shouldn't be underestimated."

Uchiha Itachi said calmly: "Nothing should be underestimated."

"Our mission is not to capture the Nine-Tailed Fox right now."

“The organization is not ready.”

"If you can't take him with you, then collect as much information as possible about the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

"We have no idea about him right now."

Kisame shook his head: "That's quite sensible, Itachi."

They boarded a boat and headed towards the Whirlpool Country.

At this time, Naruto and Karin also arrived at the ruins of "Uzushio Village".

This place was more dilapidated than any other village or town they had passed through.

Buildings collapsed and totems shattered.

Only on some stone pillars covered with moss can the remnants of the Whirlpool clan totems be seen.

"There won't be anything valuable here." Xianglin dug through the two ruins and only found some skeletonized limbs.

These limbs are just broken parts such as broken palms and fingers.

There are no complete bodies.

"Ninja corpses" are very valuable things. Those ninjas who attacked the "Uzumaki Clan" also took those corpses away when they left.

Not to mention the information stored in the village.

Naruto didn't say anything. He squatted in front of a stone tablet and wiped off the moss on it: "It's not completely gone."

"Look at this."

Karin leaned her head closer.

There are words engraved on the stone tablet, which roughly contain the history of the establishment of "Whirlpool Village".

Under the leadership of the clan leader "Uzumaki Ashina", the Uzumaki clan took root here and established the "Uzumaki Village".

"This news is of no use to you." Xianglin muttered with a lost tone.

Naruto shook his head, "Maybe there will be other stone tablets that record what I need."

"Let's look for it."
