Chapter 37

"This trip is really..." Naruto couldn't laugh or cry when he returned home and took out the reward for this mission and put it in the small treasury at the bottom of the cabinet.

He was busy for three weeks or almost a month, but he only had a measly 1 taels in his hand as the reward for the task. In such a comparison, the price-performance ratio of helping the daming wife to catch the little tiger is simply out of the box.

Not to mention other things, from the economic point of view, this trip is really a blood loss, working on a B-level task, and leading a C-level task is considered a low salary, this kind of thing is only their seventh class will do Bar.

Count the money in the small treasury carefully, and carefully put it back to the bottom of the cabinet after confirming that it is not missing. This is his entire net worth, and it is usually saved little by little from between his teeth, so he has to be careful with it.

Now he is completely self-sufficient, and the relief in the village stopped when he graduated. If something happens to the small treasury, he can only brazenly eat Iruka or take the lunch box from his little wife.

Although he usually does this a lot, after all, money must be spent wisely, Iruka is a Chunin, and the little daughter-in-law is everyone's great cause, and they can't eat them poorly.

"Is the next Chunin exam coming? There are still too few cards." After pouring a cup of tea, Naruto thought about the next thing.

The only thing he can get out now is Helix Wan, and the change in the nature of Chakra is far from complete. The new "plug-in" is good, but it's a pity that this kind of "equipment proficiency" seems to have no effect on ninja weapons, otherwise he would have been a few years ago. There is no need to practice shuriken and kunai hard anymore.

Instead, you can buy a ninja knife or other weapon tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. If it is also effective, it will undoubtedly add a means of fighting the enemy, so write this down first.

The rest is to continue the practice of changing nature. There is no shortcut to this point. As for Kyuubi, he is basically in a state of giving up now. He feels that instead of continuing to waste time like this, it is better to improve himself a little bit. Although It will be much slower this way, and the effect may be far less than the former, but he thinks it is time to abandon the fantasy.

Numerous experiments of various kinds have proved that there may really be no Nine-Tails in his body. Who knows where this stinky fox and Naruto's soul have gone, anyway, he is completely hopeless.

"Hurry up, the original book doesn't say when the White Wave Country will be away from the Chunin exam, but I think it won't be too long..." Thinking of this, Naruto drank the tea in his cup, and didn't care about the journey back The car and boat were exhausted, and he immediately decided to go out and continue his previous practice.

The next Konoha collapse plan and Orochimaru behind him made him feel very urgent, and Gaara and other ruthless people, at his level at this moment, it is undoubtedly necessary to be safe and sound in the next series of events This kind of extravagant hope, whether Kyuubi is there or not, he is what people think of as "Inchūriki", plus he is in the same class as Sasuke, so it is obvious that some battles are inevitable, and now he has finally experienced the power of Sasuke. strong desire.

Without Nine-Tails, he had to be ready before everything started.

……

While Naruto was busy trying to improve his strength, in Hokage's office, the third generation was listening to Kakashi's report on the wave mission.

"Huh~ Is that so? It seems that Naruto's child didn't inherit Minato's gentleness." After listening to Kakashi's "focused" description of Naruto's various behaviors, the third generation sighed with an unclear attitude while smoking a pipe.

As he spoke, he involuntarily looked up at the photo of the Fourth Hokage on the wall.

In Kakashi's description, Naruto's various performances are very different from those of his peers. Although it is unexpected in the eyes of the third generation, it is reasonable to think about everything Naruto has suffered over the years.

Living with people's differential treatment and discrimination, even a few years ago because of this, they almost lost the ability to speak, so that the children who grow up in this way do not have some psychological problems and are different from ordinary people. That is something that is divorced from reality.

"I see, thank you Kakashi." The third generation here first expressed his approval of Kakashi's work. He knew that both Naruto and Uchiha's descendants could be regarded as problem children, and he was to guide them Being a teacher is not an easy job.

Then the third generation said: "Although Naruto is a bit out of tune with him in some things, I believe his essence is still good. Don't you also say that he has saved his companions many times this time? He is just too much." Sensitive and closed, this requires you, and other people in the seventh class are slowly infecting this child, there is no rush, I believe that one day Naruto will accept you and everyone."

"Konoha is a big family, and each other is an important compatriot. Sometimes what is needed is to truly open your heart to understand the feelings of others. I think you should understand this very well. Don't be too guarded against that child. You don't Do you think he is very similar to you once?"

The third generation smiled kindly, but the meaning of his words could not be clearer. He was asking Kakashi to be more patient with Naruto. Obviously, in the previous report, the third generation could feel that Kakashi had a little more patience with Naruto. excessive defense.

"Yes, Hokage-sama." Kakashi nodded to admit his mistake.

The words of the third generation really awakened him. After Obito's death, he was entangled in guilt and regret all the time, completely forgetting what he was like before, and always subconsciously use Obito's standards to demand others.

Therefore, the more mature and capable Naruto behaved, the more he resembled his original self, the more he was wary and disgusted with him, and thus lost the opportunity to truly understand Naruto.

Until being pointed out by the third generation, Kakashi suddenly felt apologetic for his previous thoughts on Naruto. He understood that he had fallen into the trap of subjective assumptions, and perhaps more needs to be different from the child Naruto. to understand him.

Just like his teacher, the Fourth Hokage.

"I understand. From now on, I will pay more attention to the methods and methods of Hokage-sama." Kakashi said seriously.

"Very good, you have always been so reassuring, Kakashi, the Chunin exam is not far away, I think their performance in this trip to the country of Waves should be enough to handle it, and I think in the brief meeting later You can try to register them, to give young people more opportunities to grow up." Said Thirdaime with satisfaction.

By the way, I reminded Kakashi about the Zhongnin Exam. It seems that Naruto and the others have the right to decide whether or not to take the Chunin Exam.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

……

After Kakashi left, a secret door in the room opened quietly, and an old man with a cane and his left eye wrapped in a bandage came in.

"You are too naive Hirizan, Jinchuriki's mentality is so unstable, you still let him move freely in the village, you should hand him over to me." Hokage didn't show any respect, and just called him by his first name when he came in.

The person who came was Shimura Danzo known as the "Darkness of the Ninja World" and the opponent who grew up with the third Hokage. If we say that Sarutobi Hiruzen is the facade of Konoha, it is a huge canopy that shades the entire village , then Shimura Danzo is the "root" that goes deep into the ground and takes root in the dark.

"Don't think about Naruto, Danzo, as long as I live, I won't hand Naruto to you." The third generation replied without raising his head.

Apparently similar conversations should have happened more than once.

"Hmph! Boring hypocrisy, when will you get rid of these stinky problems Hirizhan, but it's only been 12 years, the scars left by Kyuubi's rampage have healed, how dangerous it is to let those renjuriki be free, think about it carefully Think." Danzo was obviously not reconciled to this, and said with a more gloomy face.

Danzo is different from the third generation. He does not believe in human nature. He believes in the power under absolute control. From the day Renzhuriki was born, he opposed letting Renzhuriki become an ordinary ninja. In his opinion, Renzhuriki is just a weapon , and weapons should not have a mind of their own.

"That's enough! This is Konoha, not Sand Yin. The seal on Naruto's body is the strongest gossip seal. The situation you worry about will not happen. The child's mental illness has not caused the power of Kyuubi to lose control. This is proof. "Finally, the third generation was annoyed by Danzo's words, looked directly into his eyes and sternly ended the topic.

Naruto's past encounters have already made him very guilty, and it is even more impossible for him to make him a thoughtless puppet under the control of Danzo, so after speaking, he mercilessly issued an order to expel this old friend of his.

"Hmph! You will regret it sooner or later. That kid is different from Mito-sama and Kushina. I can tell that he is a person with the same rebellious soul as those Uchihas. If Ren pays the price, he will be cut by the sun." Danzo finally said bitterly.

After speaking, he left through the secret door without looking back, leaving only the third Hokage sitting there thoughtfully shrouded in smoke.
