Whether the ninja world is in chaos or not, I, Naruto, have the final say

"The position of Hokage has nothing to do with me!" Jiraiya waved his hand quickly: "This sage is away, but there are more important things to do!"

Travel and find inspiration.

and the search for the Child of Prophecy.

"That's all."

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed habitually, and said: "I have other things to keep you here this time..."

As he spoke, he sent out a signal.

The next second, an Anbu suddenly appeared in the office!

If Naruto were here, he would find that this Anbu was the one who trained him all day long!

"Hey, isn't this Shinnosuke?"

Jiraiya greeted him skillfully and asked, "Why, are you still working as an ANBU for the old man?"

"...Jiraiya-sama, long time no see."

The Anbu uncle sighed helplessly and said, "I'm on a mission. Why don't you just call out my name when you open your mouth? Is that okay?"

Forget it, we all know each other anyway, and I can’t hide it even if I wear a mask.

The Anbu uncle simply took off his mask, revealing a face that was 70% similar to Sarutobi Hiruzen when he was young.

"Jiraiya, please stop causing trouble for me. There are not many elite jonin who can do anything in this village!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen wished he could shut Jiraiya's mouth.

What? You want to drag others to join in the fun, right?

Sarutobi Shinnosuke, the ANBU elite, the Hokage's right-hand man and eldest son, interrupted at the right time: "Dad, you look very happy. The Hidden Cloud Village should be beaten so badly this time, right?"

Speaking of this, Sarutobi Hiruzen is no longer sleepy.

Opened the conversation box directly——

When the war started, he felt very upset.

Originally, the two sides were facing off at the border, shouting and cursing, showing off their weapons, and spraying ninjutsu into the sky...

Private competitions also continue one after another.

On the Cloud Ninja side, the high-end combat forces are young and warlike; on the Konoha side, the high-end combat forces are all old and weak, and Shimura Danzo is still a disabled person with missing limbs and eyes.

As a result, Konoha's morale was low.

The enthusiasm in the Hidden Cloud Village is high.

Just before the battle officially started, Jiraiya and Tsunade arrived at the right time and made a high-profile appearance!

Jiraiya used a summoning technique and three giant toads appeared.

Tsunade, on her side, arrived at the battlefield riding a giant slug.

That power and oppression are no weaker than those of the tailed beasts.

The Hidden Cloud Village, which was ready to start a war, shut up on the spot!

Later, the Fourth Raikage had to admit defeat and retreated in disgrace with the four thousand Cloud Ninjas, looking very embarrassed.

It’s so cool, so cool, so cool!

The most important thing is that they saw clearly the essence of the Hidden Cloud Village, which is strong on the outside but weak on the inside... Everyone feels the same and dares not fight.

Not only that, in order to bring back the delegation from the Hidden Cloud Village, they had to pay a sum of money in private and signed several harmless and unequal contracts... which made Konoha gain enough face.

Rounding it off, Konoha won.

We need to promote it well in the Fire Kingdom... and even in the Lightning Kingdom!

Once Sarutobi Hiruzen started talking, he would talk nonstop.

Jiraiya had to remind his teacher to get to the point quickly.

Sarutobi Hiruzen glared at the unfilial disciple with a look of lingering interest and said, "Shinnosuke, tell me about Uzumaki Naruto's situation during the time I was away."

Uzumaki Naruto?

Catching a familiar name, Jiraiya and Tsunade couldn't help but prick up their ears...

"In the past half month, Naruto has not fallen behind in his training, but just as Dad expected, his progress is not obvious."

"Too much chakra is holding him back, and...as the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, the Nine-Tails chakra will also slightly affect his training."

At this point, Jiraiya couldn't help himself.

He interrupted, "Hey, hey, hey! Old man, you are kidding, Naruto is only three years old this year, and you're going to let him start training?"

"He's still young. What if...he goes berserk?"

He remembered that the previous Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, Uzumaki Kushina, went berserk and stabbed Namikaze Minato in the chest!

If Tsunade hadn't been in Konoha, Minato Namikaze would have been dead. (For details, see the manga "The Legend of Minato")

"Minato's seal is very strong, so we don't have to worry about the Tailed Beast going berserk for now." Sarutobi Hiruzen said, "Besides, letting little Naruto practice early is also a last resort."

"I haven't told you yet, but the conflict between Konoha and Kumogakure this time is not entirely because of the kidnapping of Hyuga Hiashi's daughter..."

"Most importantly-Naruto!"

Tsunade frowned, but said nothing.

Jiraiya was anxious: "Old man, what's going on?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said in a low voice: "The Hidden Cloud Village sent a ninja, not only kidnapped the girl of the Hyuga clan, but he also... tried to assassinate Naruto!"

Jiraiya was shocked: "What!?"

Is there such a thing?

The Hidden Cloud Village is too brave!

What's the difference between assassinating the Jinchūriki of another village and assassinating the Kage of one village? Is the Hidden Cloud Village trying to start the Fourth Ninja World War? !

------

Since the Cloud Ninja died early, the real purpose was not revealed.

So the misunderstanding was born.

Because of this incident, the level of attention that Konoha's top management paid to Naruto increased by several levels.

At this time, what is Naruto, who is under much attention, doing?

Taking advantage of the bustling scene with the streets empty, he picked up a backpack bigger than himself and left the house as quickly as possible.

Half a month has passed, and even though we have Anbu bento for lunch and dinner every day, the food in the house is running out.

It’s time to restock!

Chapter 8: The Arrogant Yellow-haired Village Bully

Konoha Village, open-air vegetable market.

Amid the grand scene of thousands of people rushing to the streets, only a few stall owners remained true to their original intentions and did not leave with the crowd.

Suddenly, the eyes of a stall owner fixed.

He only saw a small yellow figure flash by.

"Monster——"

The word "demon fox" almost came out of his mouth. The stall owner suddenly covered his mouth and tried hard to hold himself together before he roared out!

"It's the yellow-haired kid! The yellow-haired kid is here!"

"Closing the stall! Closing the stall!"

"It's impossible for him to buy a vegetable today!"

The vendors jumped up in excitement and collected the vegetables, meat, beans, rice, oil, salt and other things on the chopping boards at the fastest speed in their lives. They were not as fast as this even when facing the Uchiha urban management officers.

But, it's over.

The yellow hair that has refined the chakra is different from before...

They are completely different!

At a speed faster than an adult running at full speed, Uzumaki Naruto turned into a yellow shadow, and with his greasy hands he reached for the basket and the meat and vegetables on the table -

"Haha, damn, cursed unlucky hand!"

Under the desperate gaze of the shop owner, Naruto's delicate little hands unscrupulously touched the freshly slaughtered pork belly.

It's not just his house.

The entire vegetable market, from beginning to end, could not escape Naruto's clutches.

His hands pampered every dish that he didn't have time to take away.

His battle results are several times more fruitful than before he possessed chakra!

“I touched it! I touched it!”

"How do you feel? How do you feel?"

The vegetable seller was angry!

In the eyes of the simple villagers of Konoha, the pieces of flesh that he touched seemed to be stained with a layer of bad luck belonging to the "Nine-tailed Demon Fox".

Damn it, is it still okay to keep something that has been touched by the fox demon?

On weekdays, the streets he walks on have to be cleaned by splashing water several times!

So far, it has only been three years since the Nine-Tails Rebellion, and Naruto is no longer the kid in the original novel who has not gone berserk once in twelve years and is easy to bully.

The Nine-Tailed Fox's power is still there, and the villagers of Konoha avoid anything related to the demon fox.

And what about Naruto?

He would love it!

Thinking that things Naruto has touched are unlucky = not paying for things.

Then I won't be polite!

After taking a tour around the vegetable market, Naruto finally took his time and slowly put the vegetables, rice, oil and salt he had touched into his backpack.

It was packed full.

So arrogant...

Every vegetable seller glared at me!

"A naturally evil little whirlpool imp!"

"You bastard, how dare you live like this?!"

"Can't the Third Hokage take care of this demon... brat!"

One vendor was really angry.

He picked up the potato that Naruto had touched and threw it into the stinky ditch beside him: "Get lost! I'd rather throw it into a hook and feed it to a dog than give you this unlucky thing!"

Everyone around widened their eyes.

Whose general is this? He is so brave!

There was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Being watched by so many eyes, the vendor was nervous: What happened? Did I break some unspoken rule?

The answer was soon revealed.

"Okay! Okay, okay! Is this how we play?"

Uzumaki Naruto raised his thumb and said in a childish voice, "You dare to throw away the food that I have touched?"
