Naruto, your uncle is going to be Hokage!

“My dear nephew, you are not a fox spirit at all. Your uncle will prove it to you.”

"Really, really?"

Naruto raised his head, a glimmer of hope flashing in his dull eyes.

The name "Fox Spirit" seems to have been with him ever since he was born.

Wherever he goes, people curse him as a fox demon, saying that he killed the Fourth Generation couple!

But he didn't know the Fourth Hokage at all.

I don't even know how I caused their deaths!

Now, my uncle says he will prove he is not a fox spirit.

What method will he use...?

Naruto thought to himself timidly.

Some pedestrians on the street recognized Naruto and angrily pointed at him.

"It's a fox demon!"

The moment his voice came, the surrounding villagers immediately turned their attention to him.

His face suddenly contorted with disgust.

"It really is a fox demon! I didn't expect him to actually dare to show himself!"

"Hmph! He's the one who killed the Fourth Hokage and his wife! And so many other villagers too!"

As Naruto listened to the hateful voices of the surrounding villagers, his eyes, which had just lit up, dimmed again in an instant.

Did I kill so many people?

I am the culprit behind all of this.

Perhaps I shouldn't have lived at all...

The bitterness and self-blame in his heart surged up like a tide, instantly engulfing Naruto's fragile heart.

Suddenly, a gentle force came from my shoulder.

"Nephew, don't listen to those people. You're not some kind of fox demon!"

Naruto looked up and saw Mirai Namikaze's gentle smiling face. In those smiling eyes, he saw an expectation and kindness he had never seen before.

"Yes, uncle."

He nodded, feeling a renewed sense of strength.

Namikaze Mirai turned around, her eyes cold as she scanned the villagers around her, who were filled with disgust.

"If I hear the words 'fox demon' again, don't blame me for being impolite!"

The sound wasn't loud, but the oppressive force it contained was like a heavy mountain, instantly enveloping the villagers.

It's not just about applying pressure; it also uses electromagnetic force to control air attraction and compress air density!

This made the oppressive aura even more terrifying!

Almost can't breathe!

Cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and his pale Adam's apple bobbed slightly. The villagers parted to make way for Naruto, allowing him to walk through the middle.

No one dared to speak; the air was deathly silent.

Naruto held Mirai's hand and followed her quietly across the street.

The oppressive feeling that lingered in the air only disappeared after they left.

"That guy is too domineering! Do they even care about the village?"

"That's right! We absolutely cannot let this kind of guy who's threatening the village exist. We must report him to the Hokage!"

"Yes! Let's go find the Third Hokage!! There are so many of us, are we afraid of just one person like him?"

"Drive the fox demon out of the village!"

The bustling noise of the crowd, and their earlier timid appearance, made them feel ashamed and embarrassed.

This humiliation was also imposed on the fox demon.

They want to find the Hokage and expel Naruto from Konoha!

At first, it was just this street.

Later, the large crowd influenced other villagers.

More and more villagers are joining them.

They shouted slogans indignantly.

"Get out of Konoha, you fox spirit!"

"Get out of Konoha, you fox spirit!"

Loud.

The combined jeers reached Naruto's ears.

He stopped, tears welling in his eyes.

"uncle……"

The entire village of Konoha wanted him to leave the village.

Namikaze Mirai crouched down and ruffled Naruto's blond hair.

"Don't worry, Naruto isn't some kind of demon fox. Just follow me."

"Ah."

Naruto nodded.

But the overwhelming noise behind him still affected him.

He pursed his lips, trying hard not to let the tears in his eyes fall.

My uncle once said that good children shouldn't just cry.

Have the courage to face everything.

……

"Lord Danzo, something's wrong with the village!"

In the dark alley, Danzo narrowed his one eye slightly upon hearing his subordinate's report.

"what happens?"

"It's the Demon Fox. Things have progressed somewhat unexpectedly. The villagers are now in a frenzy and are uniting to protest at the Hokage Tower, demanding that the Third Hokage expel the Demon Fox from Konoha."

"what?!"

Danzo felt a chill run down his spine!

How did things turn out this way?

If all the villagers start making a fuss, things will get out of control!

Those villagers might not know, but he knew very well!

Naruto is not a demon fox at all, but the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!

Konoha Village's most important weapon of war!

Such an important resource, Hiruzen could not, and absolutely would not, expel him from the village!

If ninjas from other villages were to discover this, they would probably do anything to take Naruto away!

"Damn it! What's going on? Wasn't the plan just to guide public opinion and exert pressure? How did it turn into a protest?"

Danzo gritted his teeth.

He punched the wall next to him in frustration.

The matter has escalated to such a great extent that if Hiruzen really holds a grudge...

He's in a difficult position to handle!

"Yes, it's Namikaze Mirai..."

The root of the voice trembled slightly as he reported.

"He was wandering around the village with the fox spirit, seemingly deliberately provoking conflict among the villagers."

"Miku Namikaze! It's you again!"

Danzo's eyes turned red in an instant!

……

Uchiha Police Department.

"Confess! Confess! We'll confess everything!"

"do not hit me!"
