Although this is something that all Chūriki have to go through, Naruto's life is definitely more miserable than most Chūriki.

In the final analysis, it was because he paid too little attention to Naruto. He would only see him a few times a month, even when he paid him living expenses.

Few people will stand in other people's shoes and consider their feelings.

But now Naruto's experience is right in front of Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he can experience Naruto's feelings firsthand.

This made Sarutobi Hiruzen realize that he had to do something.

He is an adult and he feels very uncomfortable when facing these things, let alone a child?

The two advisory elders and Danzo subconsciously objected.

"No! Naruto's identity as the son of a hero must not be exposed now!"

"Monkey! If the live broadcast reveals Naruto's identity, it will only be bad luck for Konoha, but we must never take the initiative to expose Naruto's identity! Not only that, we must also prepare countermeasures in advance!"

Shikaku and Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Danzo, who had the loudest voice.

I would like to hear his explanation.

Danzo sorted out his thoughts and said with a gloomy face: "The reason why Konoha was able to win the last Shinobi World War was inseparable from the sudden rise of the Fourth Hokage. During the war, the Fourth Hokage and the Kumogakure AB combination fought many times, disrupting their plans, and killed fifty Iwagakure jonin in an instant, which hindered their plans everywhere and forced them to surrender to Konoha first. Monkey, do you want to think about how much resentment the Iwagakure and Kumogakure would have for the Fourth Hokage?"

Mitokado En and Utane Koharu agreed.

"What Danzo said makes sense. Hiruzen, don't forget that we concealed the news of Naruto's fourth-generation son in order to protect Naruto, and also to protect the village!"

"That's right. We can't bet on whether other ninja villages will show mercy to Naruto just because he is the future savior of the ninja world, and this will also implicate the village."

Shikaku helplessly spread his hands towards Sarutobi Hiruzen.

What they said made sense, and the reason for hiding Naruto's identity was similar.

What does it mean to kill fifty jonin in an instant?

It's simply horrifying!

If Naruto inherited the fourth generation's talent for time and space, this would definitely be something that other ninja villages would not want to see.

The biggest sources of income for the ninja village are grants from the daimyo and mission bounties.

The mission bounty is the basis for the survival of the ninja.

The reason why Iwagakure and Kumogakure put aside their hatred and united to declare war on Konoha was to deprive Konoha of the title of the victorious country in the Second Ninja World War and redistribute the cake.

In this way, there wouldn't be so many mission commissioners from the Land of Fire coming to the rumored most powerful Konoha Village to issue missions.

Kumogakure and Iwagakure paid so much, prepared for this Ninja World War for so long, and sacrificed so many outstanding ninjas in the village, but in the end they were defeated by Konoha.

How afraid are they of the Fourth Hokage's Flying Thunder God?

To be alarmist, if Naruto's identity as the future savior of the ninja world is not taken seriously by the other major ninja villages, then exposing Naruto's identity as the fourth-generation son is gamble whether Kumogakure and Iwagakure will once again put aside their hatred and unite to target Konoha.

Even if they don't join forces, Yunyin will definitely make some small moves.

For example, assassination, kidnapping and other means.

Moreover, compared to Kumogakure, the target of the Fourth Hokage is Iwagakure who he hates even more.

If the screen really reveals Naruto's identity as the fourth-generation son, then Konoha can only pray that the crisis in the future of the ninja world is big enough, so big that it cannot do without Naruto. After all, the most important thing is to get through the current difficulties first.

In this way, if Iwagakure or Kumogakure want to attack Naruto, they must first think about whether they will become the public enemy of the ninja world.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his pipe worriedly.

"Whether or not Naruto's identity as the son of the Fourth Hokage is exposed, he should not continue to be hated by the villagers. Although this will temper Naruto's character and make him tougher, facing these negative experiences for a long time will also affect Naruto's physical and mental health."

Shikaku agreed, "What the Third-sama said is correct. There are many ways to hone Naruto's character and help him grow. There is no need to use this method."

If the masked man from six years ago comes back again, it will be difficult for Konoha Village to protect Naruto. Only when Naruto himself becomes strong can he protect himself.

The villagers were allowed to isolate and exclude Naruto in order to make Naruto's character more resilient and prevent him from being defeated by small things.

This is also the spirit that Naruto's mother, Uzumaki Kushina, wanted to pass on to Naruto, never give up, and move forward courageously.

In the past, Sarutobi Hiruzen dared to bet that Naruto would overcome all difficulties because in his eyes, no matter how special Naruto's identity was, he was just a child in the village, and when he grew up he would just be an excellent Konoha ninja.

But now it’s different, Naruto is the savior.

And everyone knows it.

Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't dare to gamble anymore.

What if the straw that broke the camel's back crushed Naruto and caused him to fall into darkness, resulting in the future crisis of the ninja world being unable to be saved, or if Naruto simply watched the ninja world fall into crisis without saving it...

In the eyes of people in the entire ninja world, this is the sin of Konoha Village.

Looking at the people in the office who were all looking at him with straight eyes, Lu Jiu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Is this, asking him to find a way to resolve the villagers' hatred towards Naruto?

After the atmosphere was silent for a while, Shikaku spoke slowly.

"From what I understand, the villagers treat Naruto like this because they regard him as the incarnation of the demon fox, rather than the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki. If the villagers knew that Naruto was just a container that sealed the demon fox, I think their attitude problem towards Naruto would be alleviated."

Danzo saw Shikaku glancing at him out of the corner of his eye, and he looked away awkwardly.

After a moment, he raised his head again and uttered a puzzled "Oh?"

If that nine-tailed brat fell into darkness because of these experiences, then it would be perfect for him to join his roots.

In the future, he might be able to obtain a space-time ninja with a huge amount of chakra. Even if he didn't have the talent for space-time, the whirlpool system plus the identity of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki would not be a disadvantage for him if he put some thought into it.

But... Uzumaki Naruto has never fallen into darkness.

Danzo was like a movie star at this moment, frowning tightly, "In other words, those villagers mistook Naruto for the incarnation of the demon fox, and then someone spread the word, causing all the villagers to believe that the Jinchūriki was the incarnation of the demon fox, right?"

After he finished speaking, he said with an expression that justified it: "No wonder the villagers treat Naruto like this."

Looking at the acting talent Danzo, Shikaku's mouth twitched.

"This should be."

He had a hunch that the rumor about Naruto's transformation into a demon fox was spread by Danzo behind the scenes.

But he had no evidence, and what Danzo said made sense.

This is how many rumors are spread.

One is a Jinchūriki, who is just a container to seal the tailed beast and is innocent.

One is the incarnation of a demon fox, who wreaked havoc in the village during the Nine-Tails Rebellion, causing countless villagers and ninjas to lose their loved ones, including the Fourth Generation couple. It is impossible for the villagers and some ninjas to be nice to Naruto.
