Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

Orochimaru: "We've already achieved liberation in cultivation, so liberation in thought will come soon too."

Orochimaru: "I'm really looking forward to seeing Naruto with black frames... Wait, if that's the case... maybe Naruto with black frames will come looking for me!"

Orochimaru: "Hahaha~"

Mitarashi Anko: "Hmph! Looking for you? More like going to kill you, aren't you?!"

Orochimaru smiled without saying a word.

He believed that if Naruto with black frames knew of his existence, he would probably be eager to come out and find him.

And what will become of me in that black-framed world?

Looking at the only book in front of him.

Naruto frowned slightly.

Upon closer inspection, there was only an old-fashioned book without a title.

Judging by its thickness, it should contain quite a bit of content.

Take a deep breath.

Suppress your inner desires.

After getting up and washing up, I began preparing breakfast for myself and Izumi.

[Naruto was just saying it casually, teasing Izumi; he certainly wouldn't actually chew it up and feed it to her.]

However, they did put a lot of thought into the food.

Of course, this is the job of the shadow clones left behind.

We can't afford to make any mistakes today.

After finishing breakfast, Naruto took the book and headed towards the Ninja Academy.

The kids have been confined to their homes these past few days, so naturally they haven't been able to come see Naruto.

Naruto also left three shadow clones at home.

Two people take turns standing guard, while the other is responsible for taking care of Quan.

Of course, Naruto had already changed Izumi's diaper before they left...

[Not long after.]

Naruto arrived at the gates of the Ninja Academy.

He kept a close eye on his surroundings the whole way.

[I've confirmed that no ANBU ninjas are monitoring me.]

He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

[As usual, it was as if nothing had happened last night.]

But Naruto still keenly sensed the changes in the village.

The atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.

[And in front of the ninja academy gate.]

He happened to run into fathers dropping their children off at school.

"Naruto~!"

[Ino rushed towards Naruto as soon as she saw him.]

This infuriated Inoichi Yamanaka, who was not far away.

"This is so troublesome... Dad, let's go home by ourselves later?" Shikamaru said, hands in his pockets, somewhat annoyed.

Nara Shikaku shook his head. "Just wait for us."

After saying that, Nara Shikaku glanced at Naruto, who was carrying Ino on his back.

After the children had all entered the school gate, Nara Shikaku said, "Let's go."

"This is getting serious."

"Gone overnight... and the culprit left Konoha unscathed."

"Heh, they really are something else."

[Yamano Inoichi and Akimichi Choza approached.]

Nara Shikaku glanced at Hyuga Hiashi, who was bringing Hinata to school not far away.

Their eyes met.

The two nodded to each other without saying a word, and then left together.

[Inuzuka Tsurugi and Aburame Shii followed.]

The Uchiha clan was wiped out.

[One night only!]

This matter certainly couldn't just disappear quietly.

The meeting still needs to be held.

The scapegoat was decided last night.

Upon entering the school, Naruto acted as usual, but his attention was entirely focused on his senses.

After confirming once again that no ANBU ninjas had arrived, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems everything is alright.

Just as he had guessed, Itachi Uchiha was a very arrogant person and didn't say anything more.

As for that masked man...

Naruto narrowed his eyes slightly; he was still somewhat unsure of that guy's identity.

Iruka entered quickly.

Naruto's gaze instinctively fell on Sasuke's position.

[Didn't come.]

Naruto was not surprised by this.

However, he wasn't sure if Sasuke would be brainwashed after being taken away.

However, considering Sasuke's arrogant demeanor, Naruto felt that Sasuke probably wouldn't be brainwashed.

[Somehow, Naruto felt that Sasuke and he shared some similarities.]

Pure Land World.

Madara Uchiha sat cross-legged on the ground.

Once Fugaku Uchiha left Naruto sufficiently detailed historical documents.

Therefore, he is very likely to be exposed prematurely.

Madara Uchiha was somewhat displeased with this.

But there was nothing we could do.

After all, you can't reach into the black-framed world.

Besides, did that good-for-nothing Obito really choose the right person?

Of course you chose the wrong one.

But at that time, that was the only option available.

If he could, Madara Uchiha wouldn't want to choose him.

"Looks like I had too high expectations for this piece of trash."

In class, Iruka, as usual, began explaining the questions left over from the previous day.

Naruto felt it was time to act.

He then got up and went to the toilet.

Iruka naturally did not refuse.

After reaching the restroom, Naruto created a shadow clone.

"I'm entrusting the scrolls kept at Chief Fugaku's house to you."

"I understand. Don't worry, I won't reveal my true form even if I can't."

[Whoosh—]

Having said that, the shadow clone vanished from the spot.

Naruto stayed in the restroom for a while before returning to the classroom.

[As I sat down, I discovered that Ino was, for the first time ever, 'fishing'.]

[Have you noticed anything lately...? Have you been diligently practicing the family's secret techniques?]

Naruto gently patted Ino's head, waking her up with a start.

She breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Naruto.

[Then he glanced at Iruka, who was back on the podium, giving his usual lecture on the Will of Fire.]

[Then, without hesitation, he collapsed.]

[She lay on the desk in front of Naruto, gave him a sweet smile, and then immediately 'shut down'.]

This scene made Sakura, who was sitting behind, clench her fists.

Hinata blinked.

Seeing Ino's boldness, she naturally wasn't going to fall behind.

[I simply leaned against Naruto's shoulder and pretended to fall asleep.]

However, her rosy cheeks clearly showed she was pretending to be asleep.

This scene, of course, did not escape Iruka's notice on the podium.

【only......】

Iruka's eye twitched slightly.

【These kids are using this trick again?!】

No! I can't possibly fall for that!

[Are you trying to trick me into waking you up so you can ask me questions?]

[Hehe, don't underestimate me as a teacher!]

[Because I was sitting in the corner.]

Aside from Sakura, who usually pays attention in class, the rest of the kids are all busy with their own things.

And Iruka doesn't care.

This left the students both envious and surprised.

Some of the bolder ones tried to imitate him, but Iruka immediately called on them to answer questions.

The poor child could only watch enviously as the "bullies" in the back row sat down.

Finally, feeling a little more at ease, Naruto took out the book.

After placing the book on the table, Naruto glanced at it sideways.

Hinata's trembling eyelashes could be faintly seen.

"Won't it feel uncomfortable leaning against me like this?"

Hinata: "..."

【"Won't."】

Hinata did not open her eyes.

[But her cheeks were even redder.]

Now that she'd been discovered, and Naruto hadn't rejected her, she simply copied Ino's usual behavior and hugged Naruto's arm.

Indeed, it makes me much more comfortable.

Naruto shook his head and smiled, ignoring the little girl.

Taking a deep breath to calm my unease, I opened the ancient historical document.
