I immediately turned on the TV.
Nine-Tails also provided him with a lot of help during this mission.
So when I got home, I started watching the movie "Princess of the Storm" that Nine-Tailed Fox liked.
The house had been uninhabited for a long time and had accumulated a lot of dust.
He enthusiastically fetched water and began cleaning the house.
“Naruto, there is no one watching you in the vicinity now.”
Nine-Tails said while staring at the TV.
Naruto, who was wiping the table with a towel, stopped what he was doing.
He then smiled.
"This must be because the Third Hokage passed away."
He heard about this as he entered the village.
News praising his selflessness and bravery is everywhere.
But to Naruto, the Third Hokage was nothing more than a villain who had seized his parents' inheritance and had people constantly monitoring him.
The bullying he suffered as a child was mostly related to this old man.
Now that the Third Hokage is dead
If Naruto weren't so gentle...
Anyone else would probably have shouted "Good riddance!"
Although there was no celebration, the thought of no longer having to expose one's private life to others was a relief.
This made Naruto feel relaxed and happy like never before.
When the last episode of the TV series aired, "Princess of the Wind and Cloud" also finished airing.
The room had now been thoroughly cleaned.
He also washed up and changed his clothes.
There was a sudden noise outside the door; it turned out that Minato had returned.
"Dad!"
Naruto shouted and rushed into his father's arms.
Although the teacher accompanied him throughout the journey,
However, in public, you can only address the other person as "teacher".
Hearing his son's excited voice,
Minato unconsciously revealed a gentle smile.
"Hey, it's only been a short time since we separated, has it?"
He casually ruffled the boy's hair.
Then it reverts to its original appearance—that is, its true self without using any transformation techniques.
Previously, due to the need to guard against the secret service and the former leader, they had always adopted covert methods.
However, during this mission with the children, there's no need to worry too much; simply showing one's true self will solve the problem.
Those troubles are gone now.
Therefore, there is no need to deliberately conceal one's identity anymore.
The first thing he asked as soon as he entered was:
"How is the Hyuga clan doing now? Are Hinata and her family, as well as Neji, safe and sound?"
Minato just visited Orochimaru to discuss related issues, and he replied:
"They encountered some internal strife and lost some personnel; fortunately, Hinata's family is fine, and Neji's previous eye injury has been healed."
I heard that my friend and his family are all safe and sound.
My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, finally felt a little relieved.
"I need to stay in the village in the near future and cannot lead a team to carry out any missions."
You should also take some rest recently.
"Wait until you have enough energy before taking on tasks of a level appropriate to your abilities."
"Okay, I understand, Dad!"
He then hurriedly urged them on.
"Then I'm off to find Tsunade-neechan! I won't be back for dinner tonight!"
Minato waved his hand in agreement, somewhat helplessly:
"Alright, go ahead..."
Naruto hadn't seen Tsunade in a long time.
He jogged all the way to the Uchiha territory.
Although I was mentally prepared, I was surprised to find that there were far fewer people there when I arrived.
It seems I'll have to spend more time with Sasuke from now on.
Having grown up alone since childhood, Naruto knows all too well the loneliness of not having family by his side.
Sasuke's family is gone, so I am his family.
Naruto thought to himself.
Even the number of Uchiha patrolmen has decreased significantly.
He didn't encounter a single person along the way, and he couldn't find Sasuke either.
Although no one saw him
But someone in the Uchiha's monitoring room noticed him and immediately reported it to Kawasaki.
Kawasaki was standing there teaching Sasuke the Summoning Jutsu when he heard that Naruto had arrived.
So they decided to teach him together.
Anyway, there's more than one kind of psychic ability you can learn.
"Tell Naruto to have Sasuke wait for him here and let him come straight in."
"Ok!"
Soon someone notified Naruto, and he arrived shortly afterward.
"Kawasaki-senpai! You're still here! That's wonderful!"
Naruto rushed over excitedly.
"Yes, I'll be leaving in two days. I'm currently teaching Sasuke the Summoning Jutsu."
"Why don't you come and learn with us?"
Naruto was a little disappointed when he heard that Kawasaki was leaving again in a couple of days.
Kawasaki smiled and said, "Once you've learned the summoning technique, you can message me anytime!"
Naruto's eyes lit up immediately:
"I'll definitely learn it! Then I'll be able to send messages to Kawasaki-senpai every day."
Sasuke snorted and muttered "show-off," but no one heard him.
...
Under Orochimaru's immense pressure, the matter concerning the Hyuga clan was quickly resolved.
Orochimaru also reached a final conclusion on this matter.
A large crowd had gathered near the bulletin board, and the message on it was brief and to the point:
This incident was entirely caused by internal conflicts within the Hyuga clan.
After Danzo fled, he was dissatisfied with how the Third Hokage treated him, so he took the opportunity to retaliate against Konoha, causing great losses to the Hyuga clan.
To prevent Danzo from causing further destruction to the village, the Third Hokage bravely sacrificed himself.
Therefore, the Third Hokage was designated a hero.
It was noisy around, and everyone was talking about it.
"The Uchiha clan left, the Hyuga clan was severely damaged, and the Third Hokage died in battle."
"My God, why does Konoha have so many misfortunes?"
"Although the previous Third Hokage made some mistakes, he did make contributions to us."
"What a ridiculous contribution! If he hadn't driven the Uchiha away, how could this have happened?"
"The Third Hokage was pretty good too. I heard that if it weren't for him, the residential area in the north would have been completely destroyed."
(Okay?)
"Really? I don't believe it..."
The people maintaining order on the side were members of the Sarutobi family.
In fact, members of the Sarutobi family also participated in the discussion, but those around them didn't recognize them.
They tried their best to maintain the image of the Third Hokage, but many villagers still didn't buy it.
After all, the previous three Hokage had done a lot of foolish things.
However, what they really care about is Orochimaru's thoughts on the new Fifth Hokage.
After reading the contents of the announcement,
The Sarutobi family breathed a sigh of relief; it seemed Orochimaru had no intention of attacking them.
One of the clansmen secretly went back to report the news.
