The Avengers of the Uzumaki Family

next second.

A golden figure appeared first, its face numb.

It rushed straight to the nearest point.

With outstretched arms, he shielded the little girl's small figure behind him.

And it was at that moment that he saw that familiar blonde hair and blue eyes, and that figure whose facial features were somewhat similar to his own.

His face paled for a moment.

The boys who had been surrounding the little girl were also stunned.

One of them was about to start yelling and cursing.

The boy in the middle, who was obviously slightly older, also recognized the blond boy immediately.

With quick reflexes, he pulled his simple-minded companion along.

"Young Master Naruto, we were wrong. We'll leave now, we'll leave now."

He quickly bowed, and his words immediately jolted the somewhat bewildered little boys beside him.

He immediately realized who the blond boy was.

The man before us is none other than Naruto Namikaze, the son of the Fourth Hokage who died fighting for the village.

At this moment.

The group of people quickly bowed in greeting.

The difference in status between them and Naruto is enormous. If their parents found out that they dared to provoke Young Master Naruto, they'd be in big trouble.

Naruto was taken aback when he saw the fearful and apprehensive look on their faces.

But only a second later, Naruto's rough personality kicked in, and he waved his hand with a smile, saying, "It's good that you know you were wrong!! A real man shouldn't bully girls!"

"Yes, yes, then, young master Naruto, please excuse us."

"Ok!"

Chapter 4 Three People, Two Worlds

P.S.: Please add this to your favorites!

After saying that sentence.

The little boys quickly ran away. Under normal circumstances, they would have been eager to have a close encounter with this young master Naruto, but today they were really unlucky. They didn't know how Naruto felt about them, so it was best to slip away first.

Watching the little boys flee as if they were fleeing a famine, Naruto looked on with a puzzled expression, completely baffled.

However, it would be best if things could be resolved smoothly!

Although his identity is different from that in the original work.

But Naruto seems to be the same Naruto, only his environment and mindset have undergone a qualitative change.

"They're all gone, so you don't need to worry. Um, what's your name again? My name is Namikaze Naruto."

Naruto turned around and looked at Hinata behind him, still wearing that familiar, cheerful smile, and said to Hinata with a smile.

"Um... my name... is... Hinata Hyuga... Thank you... Namikaze-kun..."

They seemed to be in the same situation.

Although it's a different development.

But the result is almost the same.

At that moment, the little girl's eyes seemed to be filled with the image of the little boy in front of her, his gentle words, and his expression that clearly showed admiration.

"Oh? Hinata! That's a really nice name!"

Naruto spoke with great kindness, and his words made the little girl's cheeks blush even more.

Delicate little hands, gently brushing aside strands of hair.

Their eyes met.

Three people, two worlds.

This is a completely different dimension.

Like two parallel lines that can never intersect.

Mianma stood at a distance, looking somewhat blankly at the little boy and girl standing together.

"So we're ultimately different, Naruto!!!"

He took one last look at Naruto and Hinata, who were still smiling and talking.

With his pockmarked face and slightly lowered eyelids, he turned and strode away.

The same winter snow scene.

But they are two completely different worlds!

This is the vast difference between heaven and earth!

The distant, faded face.

Naruto remained where he was.

And then there were the Hyuga clan guards who followed.

And Naruto's personal bodyguards.

That was a scene of great joy and harmony.

'Hinata-san'

'Young Master Naruto'

That couple arrived much earlier and was even more perfectly matched than in the original story.

It can only be described as a match made in heaven.

All this excitement belonged to them and had nothing to do with Mianma. The faint ripples that had just been stirred up also receded rapidly and steadily like the tide.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

Menma returned home as usual.

He processed the harvested ingredients with a blank expression, cooked a simple meal, and then sat at the dining table. Only Menma himself knew the unique emptiness, loneliness, and indifference he exuded!

'I shouldn't have had such unrealistic expectations! These things don't belong to me; they are the privileges reserved for the true son of the Fourth Hokage!'

A chill ran through Mianma's heart.

October of Konoha Year 53.

This was the coldest winter Menma had experienced since coming into this world.

And it is on this last day of December, the day when we are about to welcome a brand new year.

"Little Mianma, have you been resting and eating properly lately?"

The 'kind and approachable' Third Hokage once again visited Menma with a large pile of gifts, which were all sorts of foods that children like to eat.

This is something that Hiruzen Sarutobi has been doing regularly for the past five years.

Generally, he would come to see Mianma once every month or so.

Especially on New Year's Eve, when the new year is just around the corner, Hiruzen Sarutobi would never miss it, as he felt it was the best way to show care to the other side of the table.

In fact, Naruto in the original work was moved by Hiruzen Sarutobi.

He regarded Hiruzen Sarutobi as the first person he could confide in.

But the texture of the dough is different.

The Third Hokage may have genuinely cared for him, but he viewed him more from the perspective of the ninja village and from his own point of view as Hokage.

orphan?

Son of the Fourth Hokage?

NO!

He has only one identity: the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki of Konoha Village, nothing more.

"Yes, Third Grandfather, I've been resting and eating well lately, and I've been exercising regularly. You see, I'm much stronger than before."

Whether it's a lack of acting skills or a resistance from the heart.

Menma ultimately couldn't be as carefree as Naruto in the original work, but naturally showing some closeness to Hiruzen Sarutobi was a natural performance for him. After all, he knew very well that in Konoha, only Hiruzen Sarutobi could 'protect him' and give him a certain degree of freedom.

If I had to make a choice, Hiruzen Sarutobi would be much better than that old bastard Danzo Shimura.

Even though the former is old and senile, he still has some sense of righteousness for the ninja village and will still pay attention to his table manners!

Danzo was utterly insidious and cunning.

If it falls into Danzo's hands...

Ha ha!

That's something no one could accept.

Hiruzen Sarutobi is better. Although he didn't have many, at least he still had a tiny bit of conscience.

"Oh? That's great! Eat more, sleep more, and exercise more, and our little Mianma will grow up strong and healthy."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at Menma with a kind expression and said with a smile.

"Yes, my third-generation grandfather."

Mianma responded with a respectful expression.

"The New Year is almost here, Menma, what are your New Year's wishes?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked softly.

"Hmm? I want to grow up quickly and become a great ninja that everyone will recognize in the future."
