Naruto: Changing Fate

Chapter 246 Little Fox and Old Fox

The smile that Xianglin's mother gradually regained was enough to prove that the other party did not have the slightest suspicion of Naruto because of the shocking changes that happened in front of her.On the surface, Naruto seemed to be smiling and talking, so that compared with his previous performance, there seemed to be no difference.But in his heart, he was secretly relieved. Because he was too sharp and accurate, Naruto seemed to vaguely feel that telling the person in front of him his true identity at this moment was an extremely correct choice. .Even though Naruto had no idea that he had just escaped the fate of becoming the youngest stepfather in the history of Naruto world, he felt an indescribable and unexplained feeling of happiness like surviving a disaster.

However, if you think about it carefully, the reason why Xianglin's mother, who suffered so much in the Kusakunin Village, trusted Naruto so much.So much so that even after discovering that the young and promising Menma Namikaze she had been getting along with was just a young boy about the same size as her own daughter.I just doubted whether I was having a ridiculous dream, rather than suspecting that Naruto had other intentions. In fact, it was not difficult to guess...

Not to mention for the moment, Naruto and his team actually rescued Xianglin and her daughter, and along the way, they took care of Xianglin and her daughter in every possible way and other obvious favors...

First of all, when he went to Sunagakure Village, relying on the healing properties of the chakra of the Uzumaki clan, which he shared the same ancestor with, Naruto was able to do his best to provide the best recovery plan for Xiang Rin's mother's weak body.So that during this process, Xianglin's mother was able to truly confirm that Naruto, who never showed the slightest bit of malice in front of her from beginning to end, did indeed sincerely want to help her mother and daughter.It was during the continuous treatment and recovery process that Naruto was confirmed to be a descendant of the Uzumaki clan by relying on the echoing perception effect between chakras of the same bloodline.So naturally, the unaccompanied mother Xianglin must have immediately, like a drowning person, regarded the tribesman who helped her mother and daughter as a life-saving straw given by God.

Secondly, in this world where the strong are respected, the strength that Naruto has shown is enough to gain the absolute trust and obedience of Xianglin and her daughter... After all, no matter how lightly he takes them from being a ninja, He was able to rescue Yunyin Village, and was even able to take a break from his busy schedule and pour dirty water on Yunyin Village while fleeing.Still after arriving at Sunagakure Village, he showed a mature and reliable look with every move he made, as well as an atmosphere of respect and awe from the guards of Sunagakure Village.They were all able to make Xiang Rin's mother believe that a strong man of Naruto's level would never come to the Grass Ninja Village to rescue Xiang Rin's mother and daughter, whom they had never met, unless they deliberately extended a helping hand. .What's more, the medical healing methods Naruto displayed during his journey were far better than Xiang Rin's mother who was passively left to be bitten.In contrast, Xianglin's mother couldn't think of any benefits in her humble mother and daughter that would be worth Naruto's troublesome efforts to deceive them.

In addition to this, the most important point was that during the period of stunned shock, he instinctively looked back and forth between Naruto and Namikaze Menma.From the fact that Namikaze Menma was afraid of waking up the sleeping Korin, Kaori's mother further confirmed that Naruto was sincerely doting on Korin and also From this, an extremely bold idea emerged.

Although based on Naruto's true age, making Naruto become Xiang Rin's stepfather is obviously a fanciful and absolutely non-existent possibility... But on second thought, Naruto, whose true age is now exposed, compared with Xiang Rin , it can be said that it happens to be at the right level of not too big and not too small!

In other words, in Xianglin's mother's mind, she had given up the idea of ​​Naruto becoming Xianglin's stepfather.But in the random thoughts that followed, he mistook Naruto's love and care for Xiang Rin as Naruto's liking. ? ! 】Xiang Lin’s performance.Furthermore, intentionally or unintentionally, Naruto was gradually transformed from his stepfather's identity to his son-in-law's throne without anyone noticing.Even the glances in his eyes were quietly and slowly tinged with the hint of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law.

After all, judging from the tip of the iceberg revealed by Naruto at the moment - a powerful genius with a mature, stable and reliable character, and the background was even more noble because he had the support of the Hokage of the Konoha Ninja Village.The most important thing is that from the observation of more than a week of getting along with each other, Naruto can be said to be doting on Xiang Rin, who is gradually returning to an ordinary girl's temperament, to the point of being submissive. No matter how he looks at it, he doesn't look like he will bully her. My own precious daughter’s bad boy…

In other words, no matter how you look at it, in the eyes of Xianglin's mother, Naruto is a very good-looking son-in-law who can't even find a lantern!So much so that let alone whether he was worthy or not, even if Naruto proposed to make some kind of baby kiss contract with Xianglin right now.Under the many advantages mentioned above, it is enough to confirm that Xianglin will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of her life, and she will have a happy and harmonious future.Xianglin's mother, who adheres to the premise that all decisions are made for the sake of her precious daughter, will probably agree without even thinking about it!

In this way, Naruto was quietly regarded as a golden turtle son-in-law.So much so that he secretly made up his mind to let Xianglin have more contact with Naruto in the future, so as to win over Xianglin's mother, who had a good relationship with Naruto.How could he be wary of Naruto because of this trivial incident?And then create a gap in the relationship between himself and Naruto?

Ah, by the way, speaking of...

In my heart, I was still feeling lucky for Xianglin's mother's understanding, but I didn't realize that I was Naruto who had just left the tiger's den and entered the wolf's den.Naturally, he failed to notice the strange and ambiguous glances that Xianglin's mother cast towards him from time to time.Instead, as if he was remembering something, he turned his body slightly and looked at the Sandaime Hokage beside him, who noticed the change in Xiang Rin's mother's gaze and seemed to be aware of it, showing the appearance of trying hard to suppress a smile.While feeling confused by the strange appearance of the Sandaime Hokage, he sorted out his verbal logic and spoke seriously again.

Grandpa, when I came back from Sand Hidden Village this time, besides bringing you a lot of souvenirs.I also gained some humble insights from personal experience.

Except for the eldest daughter of the Hinata family, who had only left the village for more than a week, he had yet another trouble... hooked up with a little girl.I don’t know whether I should choose one of the two from now on, or hug each other... But there is one thing, old man, I can be sure of - in terms of compatibility with women, Naruto, as a son, is better than you, a father. Too much, Minato... Well, if it looks like this, in the future, Minato's grandchildren will have a prosperous future under the leadership of Naruto?

The mother-in-law's gaze from Kaoru's mother to Naruto, and the gentle and doting look of Naruto's shadow clone, the princess, hugging Kaoru, made the Sandaime Hokage's Bagua Soul, who once again misunderstood Naruto's motives, burn brightly again. .He couldn't help but snicker secretly, teasing Naruto in his heart.So it was only after Naruto finished speaking that the Sandaime Hokage barely tried to suppress the smile in his heart before Naruto was not affected at all and continued to report the harvest of the journey to him in a serious manner.Then he coughed a few times, hiding the strange look on his face, raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked curiously.

Ahem...oh?My humble opinion...You little guy, are you playing charades with grandpa again?If you have anything to say, just say it.Just let grandpa see how much knowledge you have gained since you left the village for the first time.

Hehe, then I will say it bluntly!Even if what he said was wrong, grandpa must not be angry with Naruto!

After seeing the strange appearance of the person in front of me who was slowly suppressing his smile, but was still trembling slightly because of his efforts to suppress his laughter.After Naruto thought for a moment, he just thought that the Sandaime Hokage was satisfied and relieved that he was willing to call him grandpa directly, and did not think too much about it.Then, after coquettishly coquettishly speaking to others, the words paused slightly, and then they continued to talk in an orderly manner.

When I arrived at Sunagakure Village this time, I not only saw how effective and reliable the customs clearance documents signed by my grandfather were.This proves that grandpa - or rather, our Konohagakure's reputation, even in Sunagakure Village thousands of miles away, is well-known and cannot be easily offended.

Hey, you're such a glib kid, you know how to flatter grandpa... Grandpa won't fall for your trick easily.

After hearing the words of flattery and praise that Naruto spoke out intentionally or unintentionally, although the Sandaime Hokage looked unmoved, his cheerful look with a smile that almost narrowed his eyes to a slit was exposed. The true thoughts of the Sandaime Hokage.

Huh, I'm not flattering, I'm telling the truth!

Haha, to be honest, I think you kid is just bragging and not drafting...

While joking with Naruto, because of his own understanding of Naruto's style, he knew that Naruto would flatter and praise him for no reason. It must be because he left the second half of the sentence unsaid, so the Sandaime Hokage did not follow. Naruto said too many words.Then he stretched out his hand and rubbed Naruto's little head lovingly, then continued speaking gently and kindly.

Okay, okay, if you have anything to say, just say it, you don’t have to deal with so many twists and turns with grandpa.Even if you are wrong, grandpa promises that he will never scold you... After all, you must be exhausted from traveling all the way back to the village.Pick out the key points and finish the report early so that you can go back and rest early.

Hehe, there really is nothing I can hide from my incomparable resourceful grandpa. I am just waiting for these words from grandpa~

After receiving the Sandaime Hokage's promise, Naruto seemed to have received a gold medal to avoid death, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.Then, under the intentional reminder of the Sandaime Hokage, after looking at the faces of the people around him for a moment, showing more or less fatigue, he stopped hesitating.The smile on his lips gradually faded, and he continued speaking word by word.

In fact, what I want to say is... after this trip to Sunagakure Village, I think that the relationship between Sunagakure Village and our Konoha Village is not as harmonious and harmonious as it appears on the surface!

Oh? is it?

After hearing the speculation revealed by Naruto, the Sandaime Hokage could not help but gradually raise the corners of his mouth, revealing a satisfied smile.Then he raised his eyebrows slightly, pretending to be serious about scaring and teasing Naruto.

You have to think clearly, Naruto, this is not a child's play... If it were applied to other people, this would be an intentional attempt to cause conflict between the two major ninja villages, and they would be treated as spies who sow discord. Yo.

After hearing the serious words of the Sandaime Hokage, which were neither happy nor sad, Naruto couldn't help but feel a little thump in his heart.Then he raised his head and saw the Sandaime Hokage smiling all the time. He then confirmed that the old man in front of him was just trying to scare him, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, although in the past he had made small fuss and even made suggestions to eradicate Danzo, the Sandaime Hokage had never had any quarrels with him... But that was because, after all, Danzo's actions had violated the interests of the village.And fundamentally speaking, it is a civil war between the two major forces in the village.So much so that since Naruto obviously chose to stand on the same side as the Sandaime Hokage, he would naturally not give any warning or punishment to Naruto's over-the-top behavior.

But the nature of the words that Naruto just revealed to sow discord are just like what the Sandaime Hokage said. They are not of the same level at all... If you don't pay attention, it is very likely to evolve into... A new round of Ninja Village War, and even the trigger for the Ninja World War.So much so that Naruto, who had always been outspoken in front of the Sandaime Hokage, became a little hesitant and timid.

Fortunately, the Sandaime Hokage was just joking and downplaying the seriousness of the matter.While Naruto was greatly relaxed, he also quietly began to wonder why the Sandaime Hokage would do this.

The first reason is that the Sandaime Hokage, who thinks he owes Naruto, really dotes on Naruto too much.So much so that even after Naruto said such dangerous words that seemed to ordinary people to be deliberately sowing discord, he still did not show the slightest signs of seriousness and vigilance.

And another reason... is that the Sandaime Hokage already knew before Naruto that Sunagakure Village was a hypocrite who treated Konoha Village with one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes!So even if Naruto suddenly proposed this guess, he didn't feel the slightest surprise or shock!

In other words, long before Naruto, the Sandaime Hokage knew the true attitude of Sunagakure Village towards Konoha Village.So much so that the seemingly harmonious and harmonious trade cooperation relationship was only achieved by turning a blind eye when peace was hard-won and Sunagakure Village did not substantially violate the interests of Konoha Village. the result of!

If it's the former, Naruto will have to revise his logic of speech again in order to try his best to convince the Sandaime Hokage to accept his point of view.

But if it's the latter... obviously, the next thing will undoubtedly become much easier and clearer.

That's why I begged my grandpa in advance at the very beginning. Even if he said something wrong, he was not allowed to scold me!

Thinking of this, Naruto's eyes rolled around a few times, then he shrugged with an innocent face and blinked at the Sandaime Hokage, looking confident and confident.While deliberately testing the Sandaime Hokage's thoughts, he continued speaking pointedly.

Besides, I am not fabricating false information out of thin air, but it is based on real materials!

This naughty little guy actually asked me a question... However, at this age, he already has such quick reaction ability.Then, the moment when Naruto can shoulder the burden of being Hokage may not be too far away... At least, old man, I should still be able to see that day coming.

After seeing Naruto stunned for a moment, he immediately returned to his usual calm and composed appearance.So much so that after just a few moments, he hid some small details to test himself in his next words.The Sandaime Hokage couldn't help but let the satisfied smile in his eyes grow stronger, while he was whispering secretly in his heart while being distracted.Without thinking, he responded without changing his expression.

oh?Really... Then, next, let Grandpa listen and see if the real information you have is different from what Grandpa knows...

Knowing... the ins and outs... Sure enough, to be able to sit on the throne of Hokage for so long, Grandpa is definitely not a fuel-efficient lamp...

The gentle words that came to his ears contained some key words. After Naruto thought about them repeatedly, it didn't take long before he came up with the answer he wanted.The smile in his eyes became even brighter, and the last remaining worries in his heart completely dissipated.Then, while returning a smile of understanding to the Sandaime Hokage, he stopped hiding anything and told everything he saw and heard in Sunagakure Village.

No problem, the reason why I say this is because...

At this time, as one of the parties involved, what Naruto did not realize was...

From the perspective of bystanders - for example, in the eyes of Itachi and Shisui, although Naruto and the Sandaime Hokage were just reporting on the situation and discussing plans normally.But vaguely, the grandfather and grandson, who became more and more animated as they talked, always gave rise to a vague illusion...

It seems that the treacherous figures of two foxes, one large and one small, are slowly emerging from the two people who are talking happily...

Yondaime Kazekage Rasa: It's strange... Why do I suddenly feel a chill running down my spine...
