Naruto: The whole world knows I am the savior

Chapter 97 Nighttime Mini-Lesson

"What, how could this happen? Is nobody taking care of him? Naruto is Minato's son!"

After hearing about Naruto's life from Yosuke Shirakumo, Kushina Uzumaki's face was filled with disbelief. How could he be living such a miserable life?

"Why is this happening? Naruto is Minato's son. Even if he has a Jinchuriki connection, he shouldn't be treated with hostility. He was just a child when he became a Jinchuriki."

Shiraku Yosuke asked, "When you were inside Naruto-kun, couldn't you see his condition?"

Kushina shook her head sadly and said, "I'm different from Minato. His chakra maintained the seal, while my chakra was inside the Eight Trigrams Seal, so I could see less than Kurama."

The Nine-Tails can still see some of the outside situation through the leaked chakra, but if Kushina's chakra is wasted even a little, it will disappear completely.

"In fact, I only revealed the fact that Naruto-kun is the son of the Fourth Hokage a few months ago. Before that, Naruto-kun knew nothing about it and was even scribbling on the Fourth Hokage Rock."

Shiraku Yosuke shrugged and continued, "Apart from the higher-ups who know the inside story, everyone else's perception of Naruto is that of a demon fox. I remember you were also a Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, so you should know what that feels like."

"Of course I know."

Kushina felt deeply sympathetic, her voice even carrying a hint of tears and anger. She couldn't imagine that her son would suffer so much injustice. His father was clearly a hero, so why didn't he enjoy the treatment of a hero?

Were her and Minato's choices wrong back then?

"Alright, that's about all I have to say about Naruto. He's been reinstated now. Although many people still find it hard to change the perception of him as the 'Demon Fox,' he won't face discrimination openly anymore."

Yosuke Hakuyun has at least comforted Kushina. Moreover, given Naruto's personality, he will most likely forgive everyone. It's unclear whether this altruism is influenced by some reason, but if it were him, he would never let go of those people so easily.

"As for the future, he will probably become an excellent ninja, get married and have children, and pass on the name Uzumaki. Although he has very few characteristics of the Uzumaki clan, he probably won't know sealing techniques."

"Hey? That won't do! The Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques cannot be lost."

Kushina blurted out instinctively that, as one of the few members of the Uzumaki clan who mastered all of the clan's sealing techniques, she still hoped that her son could become like her in the future.

Bai Yunyoujie chuckled and said, "Don't make things difficult for your stupid son. He failed the ninja academy exams three times in a row. His current strength is purely due to muscle memory."

"Let's leave the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan to someone else. I've already found a Uzumaki descendant who will inherit the clan's sealing techniques."

Kushina immediately puffed out her cheeks in displeasure after hearing this. As a mother, she certainly didn't want to hear her son being belittled like this.

But she had never actually spent time with Naruto, and her understanding of him came from the person in front of her. Even if she was unwilling, she could only suppress it.

"Um, could I ask you for a favor?"

Kushina suddenly remembered something, then clasped her hands together and pleaded with Shirakumo Yosuke.

Shirokumo Yosuke spoke up, "What is it? If you're going to put me in a difficult position, it's best not to say anything. We're not that close."

"What an unlovable brat!"

Kushina smiled awkwardly, but inwardly she thought angrily; however, she still pleaded with a fawning expression, "Let me see Naruto inside you a little longer, and it would be best if I could borrow a little bit of chakra. If it's in a critical moment, I can borrow your body and chat with Naruto."

As she spoke, her voice grew softer and softer. When Kushina saw Shirokumo Yosuke looking at her expressionlessly, she realized that her demands were a bit too many and a bit excessive.

But Kushina was unwilling to accept it. She wanted to see Naruto more, and even say a few words to him. If he disappeared like this, she would never be able to accept it.

"Tsunade is like an older sister to me, so if that's the case, you're like a younger brother to me too."

Seeing that Shirakumo Yosuke hadn't spoken for a while, Kushina wanted to try to build a better relationship with him, but before she could finish her sentence, she noticed that Shirakumo Yosuke's expression had worsened.

"Never mind, seeing Naruto should give me the idea that you, his mother, aren't very bright. I've heard that your sealing and barrier techniques are very powerful. Teach me barrier and sealing techniques in the future."

After thinking for a moment, Bai Yunyang said, "Apart from borrowing my body, anything else is acceptable. I will also help you take care of Naruto."

"Who isn't smart, you wretched brat!"

Although she was clenching her fists in anger, Kushina outwardly smiled ingratiatingly and pleaded, "Please, I can teach you sealing techniques and barrier techniques, but I really want to talk to Naruto."

"Let's talk about it later, I need to think about it."

After Bai Yunyang finished speaking, he prepared to leave his sealed space: "It's settled then. I'll come to you every night to learn sealing techniques from now on."

After saying that, he left the sealed space. Seeing this, Kushina immediately shouted, "Hey, let's talk this over again! Let me see Naruto! Don't seal him up. He's not a very popular brat!"

Kushina was furious when she realized her view had been completely cut off; however, being dependent on others, Kushina had no choice but to wait until Shirakumo Yosuke came again to plead with him.

"The gains are considerable. The Nine-Tails' chakra will last for a long time, and we've also gained a sealing technique master. After we've fully mastered Kushina's sealing techniques, we'll go find the Death Mask."

This time, it was all thanks to Kurama's own foolish act of actively transferring chakra.

If Shirakumo Yosuke were to extract it, and Kurama resisted even slightly, it would be extremely difficult for him to extract Kurama's chakra; he could probably only extract enough from three tails at most.

However, with the Nine-Tails' "cooperation," Shirakumo Yosuke extracted the chakra of all eight tails of the Nine-Tails at once, enough to keep him occupied for a long time.

After placing Naruto on the sofa and giving him a pillow and blanket, Shirokumo Yosuke went to the courtyard to train.

He is currently training at home, focusing on weight training in taijutsu and purifying the Nine-Tails' chakra.

Tomorrow we'll be training in genjutsu and medical ninjutsu. Shiraku Yosuke is quite familiar with Konoha Hospital now, so even if Tsunade isn't there, he can go to the hospital and act as a medical ninja, gaining experience by treating patients.

Fortunately, he had some loyal subordinates, and the Hyuga clan also clearly expressed their cooperation and willingness to send people to support him; this allowed Hakuun Yosuke to find time to cultivate, otherwise just earning money would have taken up a lot of time.

After cultivating all afternoon, it was almost evening when Bai Yunyangjie temporarily ended his cultivation and went back to his room to prepare dinner.

Before cooking, Shiraku Yosuke glanced at Naruto Uzumaki, who was sleeping soundly, having kicked off his blanket and drooling.

Upon witnessing this scene, Shirakumo Yosuke deliberately released a small portion of the seal, allowing Kushina inside him to also see Naruto Uzumaki sleeping.

Upon seeing Naruto's sleeping posture, Kushina happily cupped her face and exclaimed, "His sleeping posture is terrible! Who did this idiot son take after?"

But then Kushina immediately clasped her hands together and pleaded, "Hey, cover Naruto with the blanket, don't let him catch a cold."

"Do you think I'm some kind of babysitter? If you say another word, I won't let you watch the kids anymore, and I'm going to cook now."

Shirokumo Yosuke completely ignored Kushina's request and went straight into the kitchen to start cooking. As soon as he started training, his appetite would increase.

The kitchen had been renovated by Tsunade, and now it had five stoves, four ovens, and seven rice cookers—it was practically the back kitchen of a small restaurant.

"What? You're making so much? Can we even finish it all?"

Kushina, seeing Yosuke Shirakumo making dinner through her chakra, couldn't help but remark that this was the first time she had seen the outside world since her death, and now she wanted to see more things.

The aroma of the food wafted out, quickly waking Naruto from his deep sleep. He sniffed and went to the kitchen.

"Ah, Yosuke, sorry I slept for too long. But it smelled so good!"

Naruto scratched his head sheepishly and chuckled. Just as he finished speaking, his stomach rumbled.

"Wash your hands and wait at the table, it'll be ready soon."

Baiyun Youjie casually remarked that since so much Nine-Tails chakra had been extracted from Naruto Uzumaki, a meal was naturally a small matter.

Soon, after Naruto Uzumaki sat down at the table, Yosuke Shirakumo brought out dinner, including grilled meat and grilled fish.

Naruto couldn't resist taking a bite, and his eyes lit up as he exclaimed, "Yosuke, this is delicious!"

"Next time, say it all. The barbecue was just too delicious. Eat as much as you want; I made a lot."

After correcting him, Shiraku Yosuke also began to enjoy his dinner.

He eats much faster than Naruto Uzumaki, and he has a huge appetite. He eats at least ten kilograms of rice and grilled meat in one meal, while Naruto Uzumaki eats a normal amount when he doesn't eat ramen.

However, Kushina kept nagging during the meal, saying things like "Naruto should eat more vegetables" and "How can you not eat carrots?" which made Yosuke Shirakumo unable to resist sealing her away so that he could eat in peace.

After the meal, Naruto patted his full stomach and said with a satisfied look, "Yosuke, today's meal was really delicious! Can I come again next time?"

"You're treating me like your chef? Maybe another time. I'm too lazy to cook if it gets too late."

To be honest, if Tsunade, Shizune, and Kurenai weren't around, he would definitely choose to go to an izakaya or something similar, since cooking would be too time-consuming.

Naruto was a little disappointed, but he perked up and asked, "Can I train with you from now on? I don't want to fall too far behind that arrogant Sasuke. Please, Yosuke!"

"Come if you want. I'm either at Konoha Hospital or somewhere else, and I don't have anywhere else to go lately."

After finishing his sentence, Shirokumo Yosuke asked curiously, "Naruto, why do you care so much about Sasuke? You two haven't seen each other much lately, have you?"

"I don't know, but I just don't want to lose to him. He's a lot like me!"

Naruto thought for a moment, not quite sure why, but he still voiced his feelings: "That guy is so lonely every day, just like me. It's so painful. Even if someone bothers him every day, it's better than this."

Hakuun Yosuke seemed to understand, then smiled and said, "You're quite considerate of Sasuke-kun, Naruto. But quite a few girls do come to Sasuke-kun, even when he's training, someone brings him water."

"That damn arrogant Sasuke!"

Naruto clenched his fists, feeling envious and wishing someone would bring him water too.

After chatting for a while, Shiraku Yosuke said he needed to rest and then asked Uzumaki Naruto to leave and go home.

Konoha is still quite safe, especially with two Anbu members monitoring Naruto. Even though Naruto slept at Tsunade's house for an afternoon, they didn't leave.

That evening, Shiraku Yosuke's consciousness entered the sealed space within his body, preparing to learn sealing techniques from Uzumaki Kushina.

Shirokumo Yosuke said, "Kushina, teach me from the beginning. Although I've learned some sealing techniques, I just memorized them by force."

"At least call me Kushina-sensei, since I'm planning to teach you all the sealing techniques, which are the essence of the Uzumaki clan."

"You're planning to use the teacher-student relationship to get closer to me, and then have me take care of your son, right?"

"How...how is this possible!?"

Kushina immediately jumped up and said, although she immediately rejected Shirakumo Yosuke's words, her guilty look was obvious even to an idiot.

Bai Yunyoujie said calmly, "Tsunade-sensei can also teach me sealing techniques. Kushina, I hate being threatened, and I've already taken good enough care of Naruto. Frankly speaking, taking care of children is generally the responsibility of parents!"

"I understand."

Upon hearing this, Kushina immediately became depressed. It was her fault for not fulfilling her responsibilities as a parent, but Shiraku Yosuke, seeing that Kushina was only in her twenties, did not say much.

Kushina then put all that aside and began teaching Yosuke Hakuun sealing techniques; he had very little time to learn sealing techniques, and Tsunade had taught him medical ninjutsu first.

As for sealing techniques, it was originally planned to teach them when he started learning Yin Sealing, so Shiraku Yosuke's understanding of sealing techniques was basically limited to the sealing technique he forcibly learned from Sora using his omniscient ability.

"Let's begin. The sealing technique originates from a thousand years ago."

------------

"We've finally stabilized the situation. Iwagakure didn't even bother to send so many people this time."

Inside the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Koharu Utatane, and Homura Mitokado were gathered. After seeing the intelligence from the front lines, they breathed a slight sigh of relief.

After Tsunade went to the battlefield in the Land of Grass, Konoha completely withstood the pressure, both in terms of casualties and on the main battlefield.

Each of the hundreds of ninjas on the front lines was given a slug, which could heal them immediately if they were injured and restore their chakra.

With the slug's support, although they can't compare to the Iwa ninja in combined ninjutsu, they can recover immediately after being injured, making them strong enough to fight a war of attrition with the Iwa ninja.

In each instance, the Konoha ninja gained the upper hand and successfully launched a counterattack.

"We really owe a lot to Tsunade this time, but Hiruzen, what are you planning to do about Itachi Uchiha?"

Mitomon Homura asked, "Two batches of wounded soldiers from the battlefield in the Land of Grass have already been sent back. All those sent back to the village are ninjas who cannot recover from their injuries and return to the war in the short term."

Many of these ninjas were injured by Itachi Uchiha, and some even had their ninja careers ended.

The complaints about Itachi Uchiha had already reached their ears.

"Aren't you going to tell us what happened back then? Hiruzen, although I trust your decision, many ninjas in the village harbor resentment towards Itachi Uchiha."

Koharu Utatane then spoke up, "Hiruzen, Danzo already told us that Itachi Uchiha attacked the Uchiha clan on your orders."

Snapped!

Hiruzen Sarutobi slammed his pipe on the table with a furious expression and said coldly, "That was Danzo who threatened Itachi Uchiha in my name without my consent. At the time, I originally wanted to negotiate with the Uchiha clan, but Danzo misunderstood everything."

Fine, if you say it's a misunderstanding, then it's a misunderstanding!

Koharu Utatane and Homura Mitokado both thought the same thing at the same time.

Given the circumstances at the time, if they really wanted to talk, they wouldn't have dragged it out for months. Neither of them wanted to get involved in the matter between Hiruzen and Danzo. They just wanted to know how to deal with Itachi Uchiha.

Mitokado Homura said, "The ninjas at Konoha Hospital are already harboring resentment towards Uchiha Sasuke. Hiruzen, you'd better handle this matter well."

"Send out an ANBU squad to hunt down Uchiha Itachi, Hiruzen. Whatever agreement you have with Uchiha Itachi, he's now on the battlefield in the Land of Grass, attacking so many Konoha ninjas. He even almost killed Danzo before. We must set an example."

Koharu Utatane said firmly that they should have sent the Anbu to hunt down the rogue ninja, or at least gather intelligence on him, but Hiruzen Sarutobi did not show any reaction to Itachi Uchiha, not even making a show of it.

"I understand. I'll have the Anbu handle this."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed and said that it seemed he would have to send his ANBU to contact Itachi, at least to find out what he was up to.

------------

"Damn it, why are Konoha's missions so boring? Can't they even assign finding a cat to ninjas?"

Temari said breathlessly that their Sand Village didn't have these kinds of missions; even D-rank missions were just clearing out wild animals in the desert.

Another team member, panting, said, "Temari, we still can't find it. That cat should have escaped Konoha by now, right?"

"Let's keep looking. If we fail even with D-rank missions, it will be too embarrassing for Sunagakure."

Temari advised them that after resting for a while, they would prepare to continue looking for the cat.

However, just as Temari was about to make her move, a hand suddenly reached out to her and handed her a clump of grass.

Temari turned her head and saw a boy with a pineapple-shaped haircut, a few years younger than her. She seemed to have seen him twice before at the Ninja Academy.

"Are you looking for a cat? Try this. Place it where cats frequent; these small animals usually won't wander too far."

Nara Shikamaru scratched his head and continued, "Take it. You've been searching all morning, it must have been quite a struggle. Perhaps the Sand Village rarely sees cats, which is why they don't know their habits."

"Yes, it's rare to see that. We'll accept it then, thank you."

Temari took the catnip, smiled, and asked, "What's your name? A junior from Konoha?"

"It's so annoying. Since the villages are all different, there's no such thing as seniority or juniority. My name is Nara Shikamaru. It's just that you guys keep coming back and forth looking for cats in my sleeping place, which is bothering me, so I gave you this suggestion."

After finishing his sentence, Nara Shikamaru scratched his head and left. He couldn't slack off in this place anymore; he planned to go somewhere else.

Nara Shikamaru. Unfamiliar, no recollection of him.

Temari looked at the catnip ball in her hand and thought to herself...

However, the dream she had about the future originally only had one or two scenes, and she didn't get much information from it to begin with.
