I want to be the man behind the scenes (Being the man behind the scenes since Hokage)

"Kid, don't ever ask me to help you fight in the future."

Gamabunta didn't dare to look at Uehara Naraku, but he shouted angrily at Uzumaki Naruto and then directly dismissed his channeling.

"Hey"

Uzumaki Naruto scratched his head in confusion, then turned to look at Naraku Uehara: "Boss Toad, what's going on?"

Uehara Naraku frowned and said a little ashamedly: "Is it because I lost to me and became angry? Did I do something wrong?"

"No, how could it be?"

Naruto Uzumaki waved his hand hurriedly and said continuously: "Anyway, you wanted to help me originally. Maybe it feels that its strength is too weak."

Although Naruto felt something was not right

But thinking about it carefully, what Naraku Uehara did was not wrong.

It's just that the result is a bit unsatisfactory. What exactly went wrong?

Naraku Uehara actually received his mission reward. This time he defeated Gamabunta, allowing Uehara to obtain a psychic contract.

Side mission: Defeat Gamabunta 11, the mission has been completed, and you will be rewarded with the psychic contract River King Tam.

Psychic Contract: Summon Tamu, the River King, which consumes 1000 chakra points.

This contract is a bit hard to describe.

No matter what, it's better than nothing.

The days in Konoha gradually calmed down.

But within this calmness, deeper waves were brewing, especially after the mysterious death of the proctor of the third exam, Moonlight Hayate.

In order to investigate the conspiracy of the major allies and Orochimaru, Konoha sent a large number of ANBU to various countries to investigate.

The Rain Hidden Village has become Konoha's only trustworthy ally.

According to Kakashi's information, Orochimaru once stole the treasures of Amegakure Village, which triggered the pursuit of Amegakure Village. Moreover, Naraku Uehara and Orochimaru have been tit-for-tat, disrupting Orochimaru's plans many times.

The night before the main Chunin Examination.

In Naraku Uehara's hotel room, he was wearing an imitation god robe and hat. Although he could use his natural magic to transform, this was also to prevent his true identity from being discovered in the event of a battle.

These clothes and the Hokage hat were obtained by Kabuto Yakushi.

Naraku Uehara stood in front of the mirror and turned over the collar of the god robe: "I like the small collar of Naruto's god robe. It is indeed the clothes worn by the leader of Konoha Village. Compared with the uniforms of ordinary members of our Akatsuki organization, , I want to be more free and comfortable.”

"Yes."

Kabuto Yakushi was wearing ANBU clothes and stood beside Uehara Naraku helping him drag the fake Hokage hat.

Due to the lack of people whom Naraku Uehara could trust 100%, he could only temporarily let Kabuto Yakushi serve as the supporting role tonight.

"Have you memorized all your lines?"

Naraku Uehara took the Hokage hat and asked casually.

Kabuto Yakushi pushed up his glasses and laughed softly: "I have remembered everything. I am just curious why Naraku-sama targeted Uzumaki Naruto in such a big way. Why don't Naraku-sama just kidnap him when he leaves Konoha?"

"No, I have to make him willing to come with us."

Uehara Naraku shook his head and chuckled: "Uzumaki Naruto's power is far beyond your imagination. Just wait and see, he will surprise you."

"What Naraku-sama means is"

"That's just what I said."

After Naraku Uehara put on the Hokage hat, he said softly: "After he leaves Konoha, I will take him to Akatsuki's base. Teacher Konan will definitely like this gift of the Nine-Tailed Jinchuuriki."

"understood."

Yakushi Kabuto nodded and put on a black hood.

Inexplicably, he felt that his new boss was out of his mind again.

In the past few days, Naraku Uehara has conducted reconnaissance, and there are no monitoring ANBU around Uzumaki Naruto's house. Perhaps it is because he has become a ninja, and Konoha does not continue to waste strength to protect him.

late at night.

When the moon is bright.

Uzumaki Naruto had a rare insomnia, because tomorrow he wanted to defeat his opponent in public and gain the approval of the villagers.

Just when Uzumaki Naruto was insomnia, a voice suddenly came into his ears: "Sir, the Third Hokage, Uzumaki Naruto has fallen asleep. Are you here to check his seal?"

"No, I just came to take a look."

An old voice passed into Naruto's ears. This voice had always been familiar, it was the voice of the third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

However, what Sarutobi Hiruzen said the next moment made Uzumaki Naruto a little uncomfortable to hear: "How is Uzumaki Naruto's situation? Tomorrow is the Chunin Examination where many famous and powerful people will come to watch. We must not make any mistakes because of him."

Uzumaki Naruto bit his quilt tightly. Could it be that in Sarutobi Hiruzen's impression, he had always been a troublesome child?

It's obvious that he has begun to learn to be a real ninja.

The next second, the unfamiliar ANBU voice continued to reach Naruto's ears: "Don't worry, Hokage-sama, once his chakra is leaked, I will report it immediately; but if his chakra is abnormal to the extent that I think it cannot be dealt with, "

"You have the right to kill him on the spot."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's old voice sounded a little cold: "Many years ago, when I ordered Uchiha Obito to assassinate Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina, Uchiha Obito made a mistake and unsealed Uzumaki Kushina. The Nine Tails in his body caused heavy losses to the village."

Anbu couldn't help but said thankfully: "Fortunately, the Fourth Hokage didn't notice at that time and sealed the Nine-Tails into his son's body, so that Konoha survived."

"That's why I sent you to spy on Naruto."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed slowly: "Twelve years have passed, and Naruto Uzumaki, a brat, still can't use the power of the nine tails. He is even worse than his mother Uzumaki Kushina. It's really a shame. A little piece of trash”

""

After the ANBU ninja was silent for a while, he answered: "But Uzumaki Naruto will be loyal to Hokage-sama, and his mother is only loyal to his husband Namikaze Minato."

The two people outside the door fell into silence for a while.

Uzumaki Naruto who was eavesdropping in the room covered his nose tightly, not daring to make any sound. His tears fell down one by one and wet the quilt.

Uzumaki Naruto never thought that the first time he got news about his father and mother would be from the mouth of someone he had always respected.

Uzumaki Kushina, the name is his mother.

Namikaze Minato, this name is his father.

But both of them were killed by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Uzumaki Naruto's throat was suppressed and he didn't dare to make any sound for fear of being noticed by people outside, but his mood was gradually becoming a little angry.

However, now Uzumaki Naruto knew very well that he was forcing himself to endure his grief, because as long as he made any movement, or even any change in his chakra, Sarutobi Hiruzen and the stranger outside would immediately appear and kill him.

After it was quiet outside for a while, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice rang out again: "You persuaded me to keep Uzumaki Naruto alive because you have been monitoring him for so many years. Are you soft-hearted?"

"Do not."

The ANBU ninja whispered: "I just think Uzumaki Naruto is the most suitable container to hold the Nine-Tails. If you kill him rashly, it will be difficult to find a new container."

"Yes, it's not easy to find descendants of the Uzumaki clan."

Sarutobi Hiruzen whispered and sighed softly: "There was a little girl of Uzumaki descent in the team that participated in the chunin exam in Kusagakure Village. Unfortunately, I heard that the girl defected from Kusugakure Village and went to Amegakure Village. ”

After finishing speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed again: "If I had known this, when Uzumaki Kushina asked us to save her hometown, I should have sent people over and kidnapped a few little guys from the Uzumaki clan as An alternative to the Kyuubi container.”

""

The ANBU outside the door was silent for a while, as if he didn't know what to say.

After a while, he spoke: "It seems that some people in the village are beginning to recognize Uzumaki Naruto during this period. Your plan may be hindered. Do you need to get rid of them?"

"It's not necessary."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head, with some indescribable gloominess in his voice: "Back then, I forbade others to contact Uzumaki Naruto just so that he could be loyal to me wholeheartedly. Now that he is very dependent on me, this order no longer matters. .”

"What to do with Kakashi?"

The ANBU continued to ask: "Previously, Lord Hokage asked Kakashi to leave the ANBU and monitor Uzumaki Naruto's every move. Now he seems to be very concerned about Naruto."

"do not worry."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's old voice was full of confidence: "Hatake Kakashi and Uchiha Obito are teammates, he just feels guilty for Uzumaki Naruto."

There was a hint of smile in the voice of the ANBU ninja: "What Hokage-sama said is that after all, Kakashi knew about Obito's killing of Naruto's parents, but he has been secretly hiding it."

"Well"

Just after the ANBU finished speaking, Uzumaki Naruto in the room could no longer suppress it, tears couldn't stop flowing on his face, and he couldn't help but utter a syllable in his throat.

When Uzumaki Naruto realized his confusion, he immediately yawned greatly, put back his tears, and hid under his quilt.

The sounds outside suddenly became quiet.

After a while, the window in the room was quietly opened and quickly closed quietly again. Apparently someone came to check on him.

After a moment, Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice rang again: "Since there is nothing going on here, you should keep an eye on him here. Tomorrow is the Chunin Examination. All the famous dignitaries will be present. Uzumaki Naruto must not be allowed to show up at all." Mistakes."

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

The ANBU outside the door whispered in agreement.

Soon, it became quiet outside.

Uzumaki Naruto in the room was biting his quilt tightly, tears streaming down his face but he didn't dare to make a sound because he knew there were ninjas outside watching him.

A dream of 12 years.

Totally destroyed tonight.

Uzumaki Naruto's fingers pinched his thighs hard, and there were wounds everywhere on his legs. He tried his best to suppress his emotions and prevent himself from experiencing any abnormality.

Over the years, it's no wonder that he desperately tried to gain the approval of the villagers, but in exchange he was alienated; whenever he was hurt, Sarutobi Hiruzen would appear in front of him and teach him to learn to endure pain.

All the light and darkness in life.

It turned out that it was just the old man from the Hokage Tower who was controlling it.

Uzumaki Naruto's body trembled slightly, recalling the scene when he channeled Gamabunta, and his mind suddenly sank into the boundless sealed water prison.

Uzumaki Naruto's eyes were full of darkness, and he slowly walked to the edge of the water prison, raised his head and looked at the huge figure in the water prison, and said in a gloomy voice: "Smelly fox, your name is Kyuubi, right? You want to know it, right?" Bar"

"Roar"

Kyuubi opened his bloody mouth, looked at the young figure beside the water prison, and suddenly laughed loudly: "Hahahahaha kid, if you let me out now, I will help you get that old thing and the entire Konoha torn into pieces”

Apparently, Kyuubi also heard everything that Uzumaki Naruto heard just now.

Even Kyuubi didn't know some of the secrets.

But this is a good opportunity for Kyuubi. The darker Naruto is, the easier it is to control Naruto.

Kyuubi also didn't expect that a village like Konoha could be so dark. It was indeed a ninja village created by those two scheming bastards Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara.

People in Konoha are always so good at killing each other

"No, it's not enough for them to repay."

Uzumaki Naruto looked at Kyuubi and slowly shook his head. The black energy on his body became more and more intense: "Tomorrow is an important day, come and make a big fuss with me."

A ferocious smile appeared on Kyuubi's face: "Kid, I didn't expect you to be enlightened the second time we met. Kid, you are much smarter than that woman Uzumaki Kushina."

That stinky woman obviously has such a powerful power, but instead of thinking about how to use it, she only thinks about suppressing it.

Even when I encounter something angry outside, I still use it to lose my temper.

Damn it, cause and effect reincarnate, retribution is unpleasant.

Now it is her son's turn to suffer. As a tenant of Uzumaki Kushina, Kyuubi thinks that it should guide Uzumaki Naruto well.

Tomorrow is the time for it to leave the gate.

"Naruto."

Someone knocked on the room's window.

Uzumaki Naruto turned around and saw Haruno Sakura standing by his window.

The pink-haired girl looked a little nervous and said, "I haven't seen Sasuke-kun these days. He will have an exam tomorrow. There is still no one at Sasuke-kun's house. Can you accompany me to find him?"

"it is good."

Upon hearing Haruno Sakura's request, Uzumaki Naruto immediately put aside his worries and climbed out of the window: "Sakura, why did you go to Sasuke's house at night?"

"Because I think it's time for him to go home anyway at this time."

Haruno Sakura frowned and said with uneasiness: "But he still hasn't appeared until now. Well, Naruto, your face, you were just now"

Uzumaki Naruto covered Haruno Sakura's mouth and raised his fingers nervously, fearing that the so-called ANBU who had been monitoring him would know the situation.

Uzumaki Naruto grinned, wiped his face, and said with a forced smile: "Okay, I'll accompany you to find Sasuke first. That guy is probably hiding somewhere and training hard secretly."

Some people, even though their hearts have become riddled with wounds, still hide their wounds in front of the people they like.
