[Several lines are blank.]

[Fugaku Uchiha: Today, both Mikoto and I are somewhat uneasy.]

[Fugaku Uchiha: Naruto's words made me decide, and I made the decision: to preserve the Uchiha lineage.]

[Fugaku Uchiha: Itachi... well, he's my son. As his father, I should trust him more and believe he'll make the right choice. After all, Uchiha blood flows in his veins too.]

[Uchiha Fugaku: Let Mikoto teach Izumi Michiaki a lesson.]

[Fugaku Uchiha: If it really is the worst-case scenario... with Naruto and Izumi's talent, they will definitely be able to revive the Uchiha clan in the future. Reviving the Uchiha clan will also revive the Uzumaki clan, which will lessen Mikoto's guilt towards Kushina.]

[Fugaku Uchiha: Let Mikoto handle this. After all, I am the head of the clan, and it's better for Mikoto to deal with this kind of ideological work regarding having children.]

[Uchiha Fugaku: Finally, if the coup succeeds... Naruto will be a great help. At that time, we should also fulfill our previous promise. I actually prepared these historical documents a long time ago.]

[Beep—]

This is the last page.

Naruto looked at the book in his hands.

[There was a long silence.]

Even the usually lively and energetic Ino dared not make a sound, afraid of disturbing him.

Hinata sat obediently, no longer daring to cling to Naruto's arm.

[Something unusual was detected.]

Shikamaru didn't sleep anymore, and Choji didn't steal any more potato chips.

Sakura clenched her small hands nervously.

[I don't know what happened, but Sasuke has taken a leave of absence for the first time ever, and Naruto seems a bit off again.]

Even Iruka-sensei was much quieter than usual today.

Just then.

[Ring ring ring—]

The school bell rang.

Iruka seemed to breathe a sigh of relief as he said goodbye to his classmates, reminding them not to oversleep and be late for the afternoon.

Then he immediately left the classroom.

Unlike before when he was hiding from the little ones, this time it seems he really has an urgent matter.

"Hey! Hey! Hey!"

"Have you heard?"

"What? What?"

"I heard from my dad... that when he passed by the Uchiha clan this morning, they had put up a cordon!"

"Something big seems to have happened to the Uchiha clan!"

"What?!"

"That's the Uchiha clan!!"

"I heard about it too, apparently there was a terrorist attack last night!"

"So many Uchiha people died!"

【"ah?!"】

"No wonder Sasuke-kun suddenly took leave...I hope Sasuke-kun is alright?"

"Yes, yes, I didn't see any Uchiha clan members today. Hmm... the guards, my mom was so happy today because the great Third Hokage finally got rid of those annoying Uchiha, no longer making them guards, and the Sarutobi clan temporarily took over... those people are definitely much better than the Uchiha!"

【"......"

On their way home from school, the students chattered excitedly about what had happened the night before.

Suddenly.

A thought flashed through Naruto's mind.

"Mom's sealing technique is definitely top-notch."

"Sealing the Nine-Tails shouldn't be a problem."

[But...why did Minato Namikaze die?]

【"Are they planning to commit suicide together?!"】

[“Even if he’s a slave to the Will of Fire, he should still be intelligent enough; otherwise, Mom wouldn’t have chosen him, and he definitely wouldn’t have done something like committing suicide for love.”]

"Besides... I should have just been born, right?"

[“It will definitely be another death like the ones of Nawaki, Dan, and Shiroga.”]

Thinking of this, Naruto unconsciously clenched his fists.

I feel like there's something stuck in my chest, it's very uncomfortable.

Hashirama Senju: Cough cough... Yeah, I think Naruto with black frames makes a lot of sense.

Hashirama Senju: After all, sealing that little fox doesn't really require any dead bodies.

Mito Uzumaki: Kushina's talent is not low, and she also has pure Uzumaki bloodline. Even if the Nine-Tails is extracted from her body, she will not die immediately.

Mito Uzumaki: Kushina was even able to suppress the Nine-Tails. I sensed the power of her bloodline back then. Perhaps, when the Nine-Tails was sealed into Kushina's body, Kushina had already begun to awaken the Adamantine Sealing Technique.

Mito Uzumaki: So, even if Kushina was on her deathbed, as long as she still had chakra in her body, she could easily suppress the Nine-Tails with the Adamantine Sealing Chains.

Nine-Headed Serpent (Yang): "It was just a moment of carelessness on my part!"

Nine-Lama (Yang): "Damn Minato!"

Nine-Tails (Yang): "How dare you use the Corpse Demon Sealing Technique on me! You split me in two!"

Kurama (Yin): That old thing who sealed the corpse demon three generations also knows how to do it. Also, I still haven't figured out why Minato would run into it by himself.

Mito Uzumaki: Reaper Death Seal... No wonder.

Tobirama Senju: "Because the Nine-Tails in its complete form is too powerful, the newborn Naruto probably couldn't withstand it."

Naruto Uzumaki: "Are you kidding me?"

Naruto Uzumaki: "How could the Fourth Hokage and my mother... allow their newborn child to become a Jinchūriki?"

Naruto Uzumaki: "Right?"

Naruto Uzumaki: "My mother is a Jinchūriki too, she definitely wouldn't agree..."

Kushina Uzumaki: "That's what that person said, for the sake of balance."

Kushina Uzumaki: "Naruto, you also have the blood of the Uzumaki clan flowing through your veins, so you are the best candidate."

Kushina Uzumaki: "I agree, because that so-called Fourth Hokage has already used the Reaper Death Seal, so he is doomed to die."

Kushina's voice was calm.

Inside the Grim Reaper's belly, Minato opened his mouth.

No sound was produced.

Naruto was stunned.

Oh, I see.

So that's how it is...

"Dad must have his own reasons..."

Naruto lowered his eyes. This time, he finally understood what the ramblings he was making in the black-framed world were.

Neji and Yamanaka Inoichi exchanged a glance.

Neji instinctively raised his hand.

If Naruto reacts like a silly, saintly person, he'll immediately slap him.

Yamanaka Inoichi thought so too.

Also, it was quite easy to play.

just.

When Neji and Yamanaka Inoichi raised their hands.

But to my surprise, I couldn't move my body.

Even more so, if one wanted to continue fighting, it felt as if their heart was being crushed by an invisible hand.

The two stared at each other in disbelief.

Then, it was added: "During the movie screening, all aggressive behavior is prohibited!"

Then the two of them looked at Naruto at the same time.

Naruto's lips curled slightly.

He appeared to be smiling, but tears welled up in his eyes, a mixture of sadness and joy.

He's more receptive to being schemed against or something.

But when she learned that one of the culprits behind her difficult life was her own father, she realized that he was the one responsible.

Naruto couldn't accept it.

Then, the self within the black-framed world speaks first.

At this moment, for the first time in his life, Naruto resisted the ramblings in his mind.

Noticing that Naruto was acting strangely, the younger members could only anxiously ask him questions without getting any answers.

However, upon arriving at the school gate...

"It's that guy!"

"Damn it, how dare he swagger out the front door like that?"

"Why isn't this kid like the Uchiha...?"

【"Shh!"】

"Don't talk nonsense!"

"Hmph, that damn brat is so shameless!"

【"......"

Over the years, the words of these people no longer reach Naruto's ears.

But now, Naruto could hear it clearly.

He slowly raised his head, looking at the faces of that group of people.

[Pitiful, pathetic, and hateful.]

[I've lived my entire life in the Great Village of the Will of Fire, created by that old man.]

【“Big Fox, you must have read it too. I haven’t closed the mental connection.”】

"What I said still stands. I'd like to... meet with you."

The voice of the giant fox quickly echoed in Naruto's mind.

【"snort!"】

"I expended a lot of energy helping you yesterday!"

"This fox is already asleep...hmm?"

"Stop calling me 'fox'!"

"This fox is really, really exhausted! It's time for me to sleep! Foolish brat, don't repay kindness with enmity!"

[Beep—]

Having said that, the great fox closed the mental connection.

Naruto paused, a slight, involuntary smile creeping onto his lips.

"Stop talking, something's off about that kid!"

"Let's go, let's stay away from that brat, after all, he's a fox..."

The parents who came to pick up their children left quickly.

【Naruto...】

The little ones looked at Naruto with concern.

Naruto turned around and looked at them.

"Go back, everyone. Stop training for now and wait for Sasuke to return."

After saying that, Naruto smiled, waved, and then turned and left without saying anything more.

However, the little ones were all dumbfounded.

[Did I read that right?]

[Aren't Naruto's eyes blue? How come they were...red just now?]
