Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

"Then, if he's a nine-tailed fox incarnate, why is he still allowed to stay in Konoha?"

Shuzawa blinked, revealing a curious expression, while Yugao was stunned for a moment before speaking righteously.

"That's because Lord Hokage is merciful and doesn't want to bother with this kid."

"Is that so?"

Shuzawa looked like he understood but didn't quite, and then asked doubtfully.

"But even if Lord Hokage is merciful, he can't ignore the safety of other residents and leave such a disaster behind, can he? What if he suddenly explodes one day?"

"This..."

Shuzawa's words immediately left Yugao speechless, and she didn't know how to answer for a moment.

She wanted to say that there was also the Anbu, the ninjas of Konoha, and the Third Hokage, but she couldn't bring herself to say it.

Back then, she had seen the devastation of Konoha after being attacked by the Nine-Tails and had attended the Fourth Hokage's funeral. She understood how dangerous the Nine-Tails was.

So, why would Lord Hokage continue to let him stay in Konoha?

Seeing Yugao's expression, Shuzawa immediately understood that, probably, with Yugao's Anbu level, she wasn't very clear about things like Jinchuriki.

In fact, Shuzawa's level was the same. Danzo hadn't arranged for him to come into contact with anything about Jinchuriki.

But he was a transmigrator, and as an old hand, he knew that since I don't know, what's there to be afraid of?

He wasn't one of those Uchiha psychopaths!

He was loyal, serving Konoha, a 'humble public tool'.

Besides, Danzo probably couldn't wait for him to come into contact with Naruto.

"So, senior, don't doubt the wisdom of the Third Hokage."

Shuzawa patted Yugao's shoulder very familiarly, then blinked and smiled.

"Rumors are just rumors. As Anbu, we must always believe in Lord Hokage. Senior, you don't think Lord Hokage would put Konoha in danger, do you?"

"This... of course not... Also, just call me Yugao."

Yugao hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether it was Shuzawa's familiarity or his words that made her think.

She didn't know how to refute it now, because once she refuted it, it seemed like she was 'questioning Lord Hokage', which was 'too incorrect' for an Anbu!

It was just that the rumors of many years made her feel a little uneasy, but Shuzawa didn't care so much. He had already pulled Yugao straight towards Naruto.

At this time, Naruto hadn't noticed anyone walking towards him. He was troubledly counting the coins in his shriveled frog purse.

But just then, a young boy's voice sounded in his ear.

"Eh? How come there's so little? It's not even enough for a bowl of ramen."

Chapter 8 Naruto

Naruto's poverty really shocked Shuzawa.

In his memory, it seemed that Naruto had always been receiving a survivor's pension, right?

How come there's so little in the end?

"Eh?"

Naruto was also startled when he heard the voice behind him. He looked back at Shuzawa and Yugao in a daze, and then took two steps back subconsciously when he thought of something.

"Who... who are you?"

"Preparing to go to Ichiraku Ramen, and just happened to see you."

Shuzawa shrugged indifferently, touching his chin as he looked at the purse in Naruto's hand.

"I was thinking of getting to know you and seeing if I could get you to treat me, but..."

"."

Naruto's eyes twitched, and he glanced at the shriveled frog purse in his hand. It wouldn't be enough even if he was killed, right?

But Naruto didn't dare to say this. He had already been 'heavily punched' by many residents of Konoha. He immediately lowered his head honestly and aggrievedly.

"Sorry, I bought other things, so I don't have any money."

Seeing Naruto like this, Yugao was at a loss for a moment.

She had always been training in the Anbu. Although she went home on weekdays, she had almost no contact with Naruto. She had only heard some rumors.

Indeed, even if she could meet him, she wouldn't contact him. Her heart was also full of hatred for the Nine-Tails, but the boy in front of her didn't seem to be the same as the rumors?

"Is that so."

Shuzawa wasn't surprised by Naruto's appearance at this time. Although he always felt that Naruto had been hit by Kotoamatsukami, he had to admit that Naruto was indeed the sun of the ninja world.

"It's really ridiculously poor. What things could you buy that cost so much money, you little brat?"

"."

Naruto was silent. He didn't know why everyone in the village seemed to hate him. It was good enough to be able to buy things in this situation.

Therefore, he bought a lot at once, which caused him to not have enough money.

But he didn't dare to say anything. He was worried that he would be 'heavily punched'.

What he never expected was that the older brother in front of him suddenly spoke.

"Forget it, seeing that you're also an orphan, I'll treat you today, but remember to pay me back."

"Eh?"

Naruto looked at Shuzawa in disbelief. He didn't expect to hear such words.

"You're treating me?"

"Yeah, are you going or not?"

Shuzawa shrugged, ignoring Naruto so much, and turned to walk directly towards the noodle stall.

"It doesn't matter if you don't go, it'll save some money..."

"I'll go! I'll go!"

Before Shuzawa could finish speaking, Naruto shouted loudly, and then quickly followed.

He was very happy in his heart now. It seemed that he had met someone who didn't hate him and was willing to treat him to something. This was rare in Konoha!

Sitting at the Ichiraku Ramen stall, Shuzawa and the others had already ordered their food. Teuchi seemed very enthusiastic, while his daughter Ayame curiously looked at Shuzawa and the others.

On the one hand, Shuzawa and the others were indeed unfamiliar, and secondly, she was also curious how someone, like her old man, would treat Naruto to something.

"Big brother, big sister, are you all ninjas?"

While waiting for the ramen, Naruto curiously opened the chatterbox.

"Us?"

Hearing this, Shuzawa glanced at himself, then turned to look at the silent Yugao. After finding that none of them were wearing forehead protectors, he decisively shook his head.

"No, we're not ninjas."

"."

Yugao was directly choked by this sentence. As Anbu ninjas, they usually wore masks instead of forehead protectors.

Besides, they had just left the Hokage's office and naturally didn't wear them. How could they not be ninjas?

"Not ninjas, that's too bad."

The little blondie Naruto didn't doubt it. He waved his little fist vigorously and smiled.

"I must become a ninja, and I must become Hokage!"

"But, not to mention Hokage, to be a ninja, you must at least have money to eat, right?"

Shuzawa looked at the passionate little blondie and poured a bucket of cold water at the right time.

"Not to mention anything else, ninja training requires money to buy ninja tools, and money to eat to replenish nutrition. You're even being treated to ramen by me now, you..."

"Damn it..."

The little blondie Naruto was somewhat unconvinced, and he stubbornly opened his mouth.

"I will definitely have enough money. I'll treat you to ramen every day in the future!"

"Think of a way to pay us back for one meal first before talking about anything else."

Shuzawa smiled and once again shattered the little blondie's heart. Seeing Naruto's dejected look, Yugao couldn't stand it anymore.

"Okay, stop teasing him. It'll be fine when he enters school."

Saying that, Yugao looked at Naruto again. She thought for a moment before curiously asking.

"Why do you want to be a ninja, and presumptuously say that you want to be Hokage?"

"I'm not presumptuous."

Naruto pouted and shook his head. Although his stomach was 'growling', he rubbed his stomach and said seriously.

"I don't know why, but many people in the village seem to dislike me. I don't want this. I want everyone to like me, notice me, and recognize me.

I heard Grandpa say that becoming Hokage can gain everyone's recognition, so I must become Hokage!"

Naruto's words stunned Yugao. She never thought that she would get such an answer.

"Desire... to be recognized by everyone?"

At this moment, Yugao really felt that everyone had misunderstood this kid?

Shuzawa pursed his lips aside, so why did you follow those little kids and run to do pranks after entering school?

Attracting attention is attracting attention, but that's not how you want to gain recognition, is it?

"Hmm?"

While thinking, Shuzawa suddenly noticed something and suddenly raised his head, and Yugao on the side did the same.

Turning to look, they saw a white-haired man wearing a mask walking over, and there was also someone hiding in the corner not far away.

"Kakashi-senpai?"

Yugao immediately recognized the person who came. This white-haired man was obviously Kakashi.

Kakashi glanced obscurely at Naruto on the side, then shrugged and said.

"You guys are here. I hope I didn't disturb you. Although it's a bit presumptuous, I think you should meet your new teammate, right?"

"New teammate?"

Yugao curiously poked her head out to look, and naturally found the figure hiding in the corner.

"Then let's go, senpai."

Shuzawa simply stood up, while Naruto on the side looked bewildered.

"Teammate? Wait, you're ninjas? Didn't you say you weren't?"

"Kid, this is a lesson for you today."

Shuzawa shrugged indifferently and smiled.

"Ninjas are not playing house. You have to learn to observe, and sometimes you can't easily believe other people's words."

"But..."

Naruto wanted to argue a few words, but Shuzawa interrupted him directly.

"There's no buts, kid. You lost because you didn't notice. As a punishment, you can eat all three bowls of ramen by yourself."

"Eh..."
