Naruto: Starting from Eating the Gold Fruit

Chapter 288 Sai: Am I really that unlucky?

Boruto's parents have always had a good relationship.

Furthermore, his father, Naruto Uzumaki, was the Seventh Hokage and a student of the Sixth Hokage, Jiraiya.

Therefore, from the moment he was born, he undoubtedly attracted a lot of attention.

This is both pressure and motivation.

However, because the unlucky Naruto is often too busy with official duties to stay at home, Boruto has a lot of complaints about him.

Although everyone else in Konoha Village respects Naruto, it is said that Naruto brought their village to an unprecedented level of prosperity.

However, Naruto always remained silent about this and then said that he had not done enough.

Boruto once wondered why his father always seemed so anxious and eager for the village's development.

After all, as he grew up and entered school, he learned a fact: even the other ninja villages of the Five Great Nations were not as prosperous as Konoha.

Why was her father in such a hurry?

And now...

He seemed to understand something.

How can you have such a clear goal if you don't see it with your own eyes?

Boruto looked at the card in his hand. It was just a small card, but he could use it to enter and exit the community. He could simply swipe the card to open the door, and once inside, he could insert the card into the card slot next to the door to get power. When he left, he could remove the card and the power would automatically turn off. If he didn't want the refrigerator, air conditioner, or anything else to shut off, he could simply use the remote control in his hand to set it.

Kids learn very quickly, and Boruto soon understood how to use these things.

So he called all his friends together.

"Boruto, we should hurry back! Otherwise, Mom and Dad will be very worried!" The class president said to Boruto with a nervous look.

Boruto lifted his headband and shook his head: "No, no, no, class president, don't you think it's fate that we're here?!"

The class monitor looked completely bewildered, and Sarada slapped him on the forehead.

This guy...

They're just fooling people again!

Boruto then excitedly told Sumire that this world was not the one they came from, and that there must be a reason why they came here.

Class monitor Mi Jin looked completely bewildered and then asked, "Weren't we on the other side of that dimensional rift before? You were the one who insisted on coming here..."

Boruto: "..."

Seeing that his bluff had no effect, Boruto changed his tune and looked at the class president with a serious expression: "Class president, are you really going to let such a good opportunity slip by?! This world is clearly different from ours..."

Boruto was speaking when he suddenly changed to a shocked expression.

Sarada and class representative Misuzu followed Boruto's gaze with some confusion, and then they saw a young man in his early twenties with blond hair and a gentle expression, leading a woman with long, fiery red hair as they knocked on doors from house to house.

Sarada and the class president, who were standing at the door, were somewhat puzzled.

Who are these two people? Why is Boruto reacting so strongly?

Meanwhile, Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki were handing out slips of paper with instructions for these people from another world who were coming to Konoha.

When the two of them met Boruto's gaze at the entrance of the corridor, they were both stunned.

A very mysterious feeling brewed among the three of them, until...

"……grandmother?!"

Boruto blurted out those words.

Kushina Uzumaki was stunned for a moment, then a surge of immense anger rushed to her head. She rushed over and pounded Boruto's forehead with both fists, yelling, "What did you say?! You brat?! I'm eighteen this year, seventeen next year! Forever young and beautiful!"

Sarada and the class president were utterly shocked by what they saw.

Minato Namikaze rushed over and grabbed Kushina Uzumaki: "Kushina...stop! He's just a child!"

Kushina was panting heavily. After a moment, suppressing her anger, she revealed a gentle smile: "Come on, you little brats, these are some things you need to pay attention to on our side. Look carefully, understand?!"

Boruto nodded repeatedly, almost on the verge of tears. At this moment, Kushina appeared to him as a monstrous grandmother with her gaping maw wide open.

Kushina composed herself, stuffed the paper in her hand into Boruto's arms, and then knocked on a door with Minato Namikaze.

"Tell me honestly, do you also think I look older than I am?"

"No way! Don't get so angry over the kid's unintentional words. He definitely didn't mean it."

"snort!"

A heavy, cold snort startled Boruto so much that his legs went weak and he almost knelt on the ground.

Sarada and the class president shook their heads as they looked at Boruto.

……

The twelve young heroes looked at the notes in their hands, somewhat bewildered.

Naruto, however, had already left the place of residence alone.

Hinata looked at Naruto's retreating figure with some confusion.

Nara Shikamaru and Akimichi Choji exchanged a glance but said nothing.

Ino Yamanaka walked over, squinting at the two of them: "Do you two know something?"

Choji Akimichi waved his hands frantically, "What?! No, no, no! We don't know anything!"

Nara Shikamaru slapped himself on the forehead.

Then Nara Shikamaru said to Yamanaka Ino, "He went to the library of Konoha Village in this world."

Ino Yamanaka asked, somewhat puzzled, "The library?"

Nara Shikamaru nodded: "Yes, it's said that they have the answers to all problems there, and even if they don't have specific methods, they can still guide you through the basics."

Ino Yamanaka looked at Shikamaru Nara with a puzzled expression: "Then what was Naruto doing there?"

Nara Shikamaru laughed: "Have you forgotten what that guy's goal is?"

Ino Yamanaka realized what he meant: "Ah, so he wants to go there to learn how to become Hokage?"

Nara Shikamaru: "Well, more or less."

"But is there really a place where everything can be solved?" Yamanaka Ino looked at Nara Shikamaru suspiciously. "Are you lying to me?"

Nara Shikamaru shrugged: "Anyway, that's the situation we got from asking around."

Yamanaka Ino was speechless.

Sakura, who was standing nearby, sighed after hearing their conversation. Then she said to Sai, "Sai, do me a favor and keep an eye on these people here for me."

Sai looked a little confused: "You're going to that library too?"

Sakura shook her head: "No, I'm going to the village hospital."

It's been so long since I've been here...

I wonder how much medicine has advanced in this world...

Sakura thought to herself.

Sai was left completely bewildered.

No way, am I that unlucky?! I'd love to visit this village too...
