Naruto: Two opponents versus Naruto, Konoha panics!

"Lord Hokage."

"Naruto Uzumaki has been going to school as usual this month."

"Nothing is abnormal."

[Uzuki Yugao kneels on one knee in front of the Hokage's desk.]

【a long time.】

Hiruzen Sarutobi put down the mission report form in his hand.

Then he lit the pipe.

【call--】

[After exhaling a puff of smoke.]

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked down upon Konoha Village.

"Evening Glory."

What do you think of that child?

Upon hearing this, Xiyan replied in a deep voice, "She is an ambitious and compassionate child."

"Please forgive me for the short time I had with you."

"I can't offer any further comment."

Are you ambitious?

[Heh... I still don't know enough. Naruto, that kid, if I hadn't repeatedly told him not to overtrain...]

[Hiruzen Sarutobi has his back to Yugao Uzuki.]

A smile unconsciously appeared on his old face.

Do you have a kind heart?

[This is naturally the case for children who have deeply grasped the Will of Fire.]

【very good.】

Hiruzen Sarutobi takes a deep drag on his cigarette.

Then his face returned to normal.

[Turn the chair around.]

Looking at Uzuki Yugao kneeling on one knee.

"Xiyan, find a way to contact him."

"Then, gain his trust."

"I will revoke your secret service status."

As he spoke, Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly stood up.

He said earnestly, "Xiyan, the future of the village is in your hands."

"The significance of being the Nine-Tails' Jinchūriki is extraordinary."

"I hope you can become his closest person."

"With you here, the Nine-Tails' rampage is a thing of the past, and it will never happen again."

【"......"

Hiruzen Sarutobi said a lot.

But Uzuki Yugao was no longer listening.

She stood there, stunned.

I feel somewhat lost.

However, it remains within an acceptable range.

【a long time.】

[Hiruzen Sarutobi finally stopped talking.]

He took a drag of opium.

Then he took a scroll out of the drawer.

"I know this isn't fair to you."

"But it's all for the village; some things are necessary."

"If you feel it's too much of a stretch, that's fine. I'll find someone else."

"Also, this matter needs to be kept confidential."

"Alright, all in all, this is still a bit premature, and there's no need to worry."

"You can go now."

Having said that, he pushed the scroll to the edge of the Hokage's desk.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

[Maoyue Xiyan’s mood is complicated. 】

He slowly rose, preparing to receive the scroll.

However, at a glance, Uzuki Yugao noticed the annotation above.

【The White Fang Knife Technique】

[White Fang...sword technique?]

[The White Fang of Konoha's swordsmanship?]

[The swordsmanship of the legendary White Fang of Konoha, who was renowned throughout the ninja world?]

[Uzuki Yugao's breath hitched.]

In that instant, she felt as if she could hear her own heartbeat.

[Yugao Uzuki seemed frozen in place.]

Seeing this, Hiruzen Sarutobi's lips curled slightly, then he turned around and continued smoking.

It didn't urge us.

I believe Uzuki Yugao won't refuse this task.

The main issue is that there isn't a suitable candidate for Hiruzen Sarutobi among the new generation.

[Furthermore, we already have a young girl from the Yamanaka family...it just requires a higher price to pay.]

"Hokage-sama, I will try my best to get close to that child."

Not long after, Uzuki Yugao picked up the scroll containing the White Fang Sword Technique.

Hiruzen Sarutobi nodded slightly, without turning around, and simply waved his hand.

"No need to rush."

"Naruto is still too young; this mission has a long time limit."

"Go down."

"From now on, everything concerning Naruto will be in your hands."

"Yes, Hokage-sama!"

[Yugao Uzuki bowed deeply.]

Then, according to the rules.

[Uzuki Yugao slowly removed the animal mask she was wearing.]

Place the animal mask on the Hokage's desk.

When Yugao Uzuki opened the office door, Hiruzen Sarutobi said, "From today onwards, you are no longer an Anbu ninja, but a Konoha Special Jonin."

[Click—]

The door to the Hokage's office slowly closed.

Hiruzen Sarutobi stared at the animal mask on the table.

A scene from that year flashed through my mind.

[That night, Hiruzen Sarutobi watched Kushina being kidnapped using a crystal ball.]

[He ordered the ANBU ninjas to guide Minato Namikaze to see Kushina's hair.]

Furthermore, no one else is allowed to intervene.

Inside the Grim Reaper's belly, Minato tensed up once again.

However, what left him at a loss was...

Kushina remained silent in the chat room for a long time.

In the Pure Land world.

Mikoto Uchiha looked at her best friend with some concern.

But her best friend remained calm.

It was as if the person next to the large black-framed screen was talking about someone else, and it didn't affect her at all.

However, there are many people who are not at peace now.

As one of the main characters in this Hokage's office.

"Uzuki Yugao" naturally means "I'm numb."

but......

Putting yourself in their shoes, if you were given this kind of task in that world, at that time, and had the White Fang Sword Technique as a reward... and the subsequent rewards would only be better.

I would definitely agree.

Thinking about it that way...

Uzuki Yugao felt somewhat sorry for Hayate Gekko.

However, Uzuki Yugao searched around.

Moonlight Gale still could not be found.

In an instant, a bad feeling welled up in my heart.

Just then.

Mitarashi Anko put her arm around her shoulder.

"Sure, Yugao~!"

"The future wife of the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki~!"

Kurenai's shoulders trembled slightly.

She's trained so she won't laugh out loud unless she can't help it.

Of course, Hinata was also quite nervous.

"I was the first one... I was the first one..."

In the blink of an eye, spring has passed and autumn has arrived.

Naruto is nine years old.

That day, he sent his shadow clone to school.

[He himself went to train in the back mountains of Konoha.]

[This period of more than a year.]

He focused all his efforts on cultivating his spiritual power.

[Now, I'm over a year older.]

[You can begin training in Fire Release techniques.]

The main reason is that mental cultivation becomes increasingly difficult after reaching a certain level.

Naruto can now use the Shadow Clone Technique to create fifteen shadow clones.

Progress is also slow.

[The Shadow Clone Technique is not complete after all; Naruto has tried to deduce its effects.]

However, it caused my blood and qi to churn several times.

[On one occasion, he even suffered severe internal injuries.]

At that moment, Naruto finally understood why the Second Hokage had died such a wretched death in his later years.

He deduced the complete multiple shadow clone technique based on the original one, but made only one mistake, and suffered such severe injuries.

[And what about the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, who possessed forbidden techniques?]

[But it did have an effect; Naruto's shadow clone mechanics increased from ten to fifteen.]

However, Naruto stopped attempting deductions after that.

It would be unbearable to experience trauma again.

For over a year, Uchiha Izumi remained in a deep slumber.

However, the body has finally begun to grow.

[His distinctive features became increasingly striking; every time he was wiped down or cleaned, Naruto would blush deeply.]

For the first six months, Uchiha Izumi almost completely stopped growing.

This clearly demonstrates the dangers of awakening the Mangekyou Sharingan too early.

[It's finally starting to recover.]

A few days ago, after Naruto helped Izumi bathe, something that hadn't happened before occurred.

The area where the warm, damp towel had been applied turned red... even Quan's face flushed.

[Perhaps consciousness is beginning to return.]

In short, everything is moving in a positive direction.

[Furthermore, Naruto had a feeling that if Sasuke had awakened the Mangekyou Sharingan at this age, he probably wouldn't have suffered such severe damage.]

[Boom!]

Just then, a commotion in the distance interrupted Naruto's thoughts.

He said with a hint of helplessness, "Big fox, that woman is here again..."
