Naruto: Changing Fate

Welcome! ?"Uh oh oh! It hurts so much——!"

Because his body lost balance, Konohamaru instinctively felt a sense of uneasiness and panic. While waving his short hand out of thin air, he closed his eyes nervously because he did not dare to look at the ground that was approaching rapidly. .

"Has this kid come to 'duel' with the Sandaime Hokage again... He really has a unique way of acting like a spoiled brat."

It was at this moment that Naruto, who was sitting on the bench quite a distance away from Konohamaru, was in this electric light and flint room, secretly complaining in his heart with laughter and tears.While turning his entire body into a golden afterimage, he quickly rushed towards Konohamaru's leaning forward figure.Then, without waiting for the little guy's body in front of him to have a close contact with the ground like a dog chewing mud, he held the naughty little guy firmly in his arms.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts me to death...ah?"

At the same time, Konohamaru, who thought he would definitely fall to the ground and was prepared for pain, did not relax the moment he came into contact with Naruto's body.Instead, driven by instinctive reaction, he twisted his body hard, closed his eyes tightly, and shouted loudly with a milky voice.It wasn't until after a while that he felt the slightest pain that he hadn't felt for a long time and the inexplicably familiar touch of a warm embrace. He opened his eyes in confusion and murmured to himself.While following the tactile feedback from his body, he subconsciously looked sideways.

"Wait a minute, why doesn't it hurt at all...huh? You are...ah——! Brother Naruto! Long time no see——!"

It was obvious that there had been many contacts between Konohamaru and Naruto.So much so that Konohamaru squinted his eyes a little and saw clearly that the person who helped him resolve his embarrassing situation in time was none other than Naruto, whom he had not seen for a long time.Not only did Konohamaru not appear as domineering as in the original work when the two first met.Instead, he was stunned for a moment, and then completely forgot about the purpose of his trip, which was to challenge his grandfather to a duel.Then he threw away the toy in his hand with great joy, turned around, and kept digging into Naruto's arms.

"Hey, long time no see, Konohamaru, you have grown up a lot..."

Naruto was obviously not surprised by Konohamaru, who was a arrogant little devil one second, and who was acting coquettishly in his arms the next.So much so that he naturally moved his palm a little to make it easier for the little guy in his arms to turn around. At the same time, he took out a hand and used the tissue that appeared out of thin air and held it in his palm to cover Konohamaru's hand which was lightly pinched. Use the tip of your small nose to blow away the vaguely hanging mucus.With one corner of his mouth raised, he responded warmly without any hesitation.

"However, the next time you initiate a duel, in addition to paying attention to the occasion and time, you must also remember to pay attention to your steps~"

"Uh...hehe, just...that was just a mistake! There will be...definitely not the next time...ah! That's right!"

Under Naruto's teasing words, Konohamaru's face turned red with embarrassment.But he soon ignored his own embarrassment, and while firmly pulling on the corners of Naruto's clothes, his eyes seemed to be shining like stars, and he asked questions like a barrage.

"Na na! Brother Naruto! Are you free now? Can you play with me later? Also, let me tell you, grandpa seems to like reading a book called Making Out..."

"Hiss... At the same age, Naruto is extremely well-behaved and obedient, but Konohamaru, a brat... seems like he can forget his grandfather's virtues now that he has a brother?!"

Although the Sandaime Hokage had to admit that when it came to taking care of children, Naruto, who was also a minor, was more comfortable than adults like them.So much so that when his precious grandson comes to cause trouble, if Naruto is present, it will indeed save the Sandaime Hokage a lot of worry like now.I also felt quite warm and comfortable about the harmonious coexistence between my "grandson" and his biological grandson... But after hearing that Konohamaru, a brat who "eats everything in and out", wanted Naruto to stay and play with him. , actually in front of his biological grandfather, he revealed his old story as if no one else was watching!The Sandaime Hokage, who was originally relaxed, suddenly stiffened and could no longer hold his breath.

"Cough-cough-!"

Just as the expression on the Sandaime Hokage's face went from blue to purple, then quickly returned to its normal appearance, it presented a rather colorful picture.Before Konohamaru could reveal the name of a certain pornographic book that was on his lips, he coughed lightly and interrupted the second half of Konohamaru's words.While trying to keep his tone as normal, Konohamaru, who subconsciously followed the coughing sound of the Sandaime Hokage and turned his head sideways with confusion on his face, explained and reassured in a serious manner.

"Konohamaru, be careful! Don't always cause trouble to your brother Naruto...Besides, your brother Naruto has just come back. After completing the formalities, he is going to rest."

Although he made up a more reasonable excuse in a hurry and successfully changed the topic... But the Sandaime Hokage knew clearly that for Naruto, who had a close relationship with Jiraiya, some kind of bad thing written by Jiraiya Of course, the existence of the publication is well known.Even though Konohamaru couldn't tell all the names of the little yellow books.It was enough for Naruto to guess from this few words that when Jiraiya's new work was published, he specially picked up a copy and came to honor his old man. This embarrassing fact.Furthermore, this act of lecturing Konohamaru was not so much to avoid the exposure of embarrassing things, but rather because the Sandaime Hokage wanted to preserve the image of a reliable grandfather that he had always worked hard to maintain in front of his "grandson" and his own grandson. , and the perfunctory behavior he did was just to gain some psychological comfort for himself.

Of course, Naruto understood this quite well.So much so that even though Konohamaru "snitched" to Naruto in front of the Sandaime Hokage without knowing the importance of it.It's not like the Sandaime Hokage was worried about using this as an excuse to tease the old man...

After all, when the third generation Hokage's wife, Sarutobi Biwako, consumed too much chakra when delivering Naruto, she failed to detect the abnormality in the outside world in time, and was killed by Obito in a sneak attack.For more than ten years, the Sandaime Hokage has not had the slightest thought of continuing his relationship, and has always been alone.Furthermore, after losing my wife, I have no one to confide in.Various matters in the village are on track again, and the Sandaime Hokage, who can no longer simply rely on a large amount of work to numb himself, will inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.So much so that I occasionally read books in private to pass the time and relieve the loneliness in my heart. This is not a sinful thing, but also an excusable thing.What reason is there to laugh at this old man?

"Oh——! Why is this like this..."

Fortunately, the character of an immature child is much simpler and easier to coax than a teenager with a slightly more mature mind.Coupled with the fact that Naruto was by his side, Konohamaru subconsciously restrained a lot of his naughtiness in order to maintain a good image in front of his brother whom he longed for so that Naruto could nod and agree to play with him. Because of temperament.This caused Konohamaru to vaguely feel that something was not right with his grandfather's expression at this moment.But he could only respond with a depressed mouth and a feeble mumble.

"Yes……"

"Hmm... Well, it doesn't matter, Grandpa Sandaime Hokage. Anyway, the allocation of team members arranged by the school will not start until tomorrow, right?"

After seeing Konohamaru agreeing aggrievedly even though he was dissatisfied, the doting smile in Naruto's eyes became even brighter.Then, after thinking about his itinerary secretly in his heart, he raised his hand slightly and gently rubbed the head of the little guy in his arms.With a smile on his face, he responded carelessly.

"In other words, I should be quite leisurely throughout the whole day today... So, Konohamaru, as long as you promise to be a good and obedient child and no longer disturb the Sandaime Hokage's grandfather's work, I will take you with me. How about going to the forest and having fun all day?"

"Huh? Really?!"

"Of course, your brother Naruto and I have always kept our word, right?"

"Yah ho——! That's great!"

After questioning in disbelief, he got a positive answer from Naruto.Konohamaru, who was still drooping his little head, suddenly jumped three feet high with joy in front of this sudden surprise.Then, as if he remembered something, he carefully turned his head sideways, facing the doting and helpless gaze of the Sandaime Hokage, and asked tentatively in a low voice.

"Now...Grandpa, you heard it too. This is what Brother Naruto promised me! So...I should...can't be considered as causing trouble to Brother Naruto, right?"

"Okay, okay, okay, don't worry, let's see how happy this child of yours is...Naruto, just pamper Konohamaru. If you continue to pamper Konohamaru, I'm afraid he won't even want me as a grandfather~"

Seeing that Naruto was not teasing himself about the embarrassing incident in the pornographic publication.He even followed the Sandaime Hokage's words and took the initiative to take care of Konohamaru, which made the Sandaime Hokage secretly breathe a sigh of relief.Then he put on a serious face and teased his precious grandson pretending to be serious.While moving his eyes slightly to look at Naruto with a smile on his face, he continued speaking in a warm voice.

"Then, I will trouble you to take care of Konohamaru later, Naruto... After Shinnosuke and the others finish their work, I will arrange for the two of them to take Konohamaru home."

In words, the "Shinnosuke and the others" mentioned by the Sandaime Hokage are naturally the sons and daughters-in-law of the Sandaime Hokage - that is, Konohamaru's parents.

In the original work, except for occasionally seeing Konohamaru's parents working for the ANBU and being the right-hand man of the Third Hokage, there is basically no official appearance at all, not even the names of Konohamaru's parents. It was an embarrassing situation that had never been mentioned, but the difference was... Naruto intervened in the middle, completely eliminated Danzo's cancer, and completely took over the root tissue.The two men who worked for the ANBU to better control Danzo's actions in the dark side of the village naturally no longer needed to hide in the darkness.Coupled with Tsunade's early return, Naruto's own medical ninjutsu level can be said to have grown significantly over the years.So much so that during the birth of Konohamaru, even though there was an emergency situation of dystocia.But with Naruto's help, it can be said that he got through it safely without any danger.This allowed the family of three to live like ordinary people in the increasingly prosperous Konoha Ninja Village, completely getting rid of the dark side of the village and living happily and peacefully.

In a sense, this can be regarded as a benign butterfly effect caused by Naruto unintentionally...

At the same time, the fate of Konohamaru's parents had changed significantly because of Naruto's appearance.Not only Konohamaru's character has improved a lot compared to the arrogant and domineering naughty boy he looked like when he first appeared in the original work.The Sandaime Hokage also personally delivered Konohamaru with the help of Naruto, and from the beginning to the end, he was like Konohamaru's brother, doting on and loving the little guy. In addition to the Sandaime Hokage, who regarded Naruto as his own, Konohamaru's parents and Konohamaru's uncle, Sarutobi Asuma, also completely elevated Naruto's status to that of a member of the family!Together with this, the doubts and dissatisfaction in the hearts of these three people about their father always doting on this "demon fox brat" disappeared without a trace as time gradually passed.

Of course, just like Hinata Hizashi and Uchiha Fugaku, the number of companions who slightly understand or even fully accept Naruto has been quietly growing over the years - when Naruto originally graffitied the Hokage Rock, he was just I was angrily criticized by others, but there was no excessive verbal abuse, and I was never accused of being a "demon fox monster" in public. This is the best example - so much so that I was completely treated like a family member here. Acceptance produces an indescribable sense of satisfaction.For Naruto, who has been coldly scolded by others since he traveled to this world, although he has never said it clearly, it is definitely the most cherished treasure in Naruto's heart.Deep down in my heart, I felt a sense of indifference towards the seemingly prosperous Konoha Ninja Village, but in fact there was still scum and rot hiding in it. In the little moments I spent with my friends, it gradually transformed into a true sense of the word. A sense of belonging to home.

In other words... if you want to make an accurate comparison between Naruto now and Naruto a few years ago?

Well, in addition to the qualitative leap in strength that occurs with age...

In the beginning, Naruto was thinking of the blessings of the Minato couple who gave him a new life, so he decided to endure the cynicism of the ignorant villagers and protect them on behalf of the "deceased" couple. The cherished Konoha Ninja Village.Furthermore, his view of Konoha Ninja Village is that except for his companions, the life, death and loss of others are insignificant and passive.

Now, with the care and companionship of his companions for ten years, Naruto has gradually given up the vague hatred and antipathy towards the Konoha Ninja Village in his heart, and has completely integrated into the role he plays now...

That is……

The guardian of Konoha Ninja Village - the future seventh generation Hokage, Uzumaki Naruto!
