Naruto: I, Naruto, don't want to try anymore.

Chapter 47 Sincerity

"Hey! The pursuit of fragments of dreams remains unchanged; we, in our relentless chase, float in the celestial realm we yearn for..."

Even when we're tired of it, the guiding light of exploration remains unchanged...

"Yo! Yo!"

A few minutes later, in the living room, Naruto was playing the guitar and singing, with two clones providing harmonies behind him.

Opposite him, Killer Bee made a metal salute with both hands, dynamically twisting his muscular body.

Rayleigh Ai sat alone at the table, his face expressionless, feeling that the world was utterly absurd...

He didn't know why things had turned out this way.

All I remember is being welcomed into the house by that woman named Kanako and meeting Naruto.

Before he could even extend an invitation, Kirabi was drawn to the guitar.

And then that's how it happened...

Although I know that Jinchuriki are usually weirdos, you guys are just too damn weird!

But to be fair, compared to his younger brother, this nine-tailed brat sings quite well…

Kanako brought over tea: "Please have some tea, sir."

Thank you.

As he took the hot tea, Ai's gaze swept over Kanako's red hair.

"Although the world of ninjas is filled with bloodshed and violence, not all ninjas are beasts like those from the Grass Village. At least the Hidden Cloud Village truly accepts its comrades from every village."

Kanako smiled slightly: "I'm very lucky to have met Lord Naruto."

"I'm here to invite your parents."

Aiman ​​waved his hand dismissively, ignoring the scalding hot tea, and poured it into his mouth.

"Yo! We've come all the way from Kumogakure to see you, fox boy! Our meeting today was arranged by the Sage of Six Paths! Yay—"

"puff----"

Upon hearing that familiar yet strange rap, Ai spat out a mouthful of hot tea.

"Compare!!!!"

Bang!

Ai's figure shot out, raising his leg and delivering a powerful, heavy kick that slammed Killer Bee's head into the baseboard...

Thump thump...

Two shadow clones exploded, and Naruto crouched down, gently poking Killer Bee's cheek with his finger.

"Such a great attitude, falling asleep as soon as her head hits the pillow..."

"Stop talking nonsense, you brat from the vortex!"

Ai sat down cross-legged with his hands on his knees.

"We're here to recruit you! Once you join Kumogakure, the next Raikage will be yours!"

"If you don't believe me, I can announce it to the entire ninja world, in front of everyone in the village!"

A shouted, "Oh right, I forgot to mention, I'm A, the current Raikage of Kumogakure! This guy is my sworn brother, Killer Bee!"

He pointed at Kirabi, who was lying on the ground convulsing.

"I'm sure you've sensed it too, right? This guy is a Jinchūriki, just like you."

"Like you, this guy was also ostracized because of his Jinchūriki status. That's normal; people always feel fear when facing great power. But as long as you're strong enough, you'll gain respect in Kumogakure!"

Aiton paused as he spoke.

In fact, Kumogakure is quite accepting of Jinchūriki. For example, Yugito, who is also a Jinchūriki, did not experience what Killer Bee went through. They might have some similar experiences, but definitely not many.

Killer Bee was ostracized mainly because of the Eight-Tails' rampage back then.

Given this guy's personality, it's hard to say who isolated whom.

However, he didn't mention this, perhaps because he felt ashamed...

"In short... wealth, power, status, honor... as long as you nod your head, I'll agree to whatever your conditions! Even if it means starting a war! This is a promise I make in my capacity as the Raikage!"

"So, kid! Give me a straight answer!"

"don't want."

Ai stumbled and almost fell headfirst to the ground.

Why?

Ai looked puzzled. These conditions were probably unmatched in the entire ninja world.

No, that old bastard Onoki probably wouldn't be stingy with the position of Tsuchikage, but what kind of lousy place is Iwagakure? What do they have to offer?

"Because I don't want to be a ninja."

Naruto shook his head: "Ninjas exist for missions, but I only live for myself. Besides, power comes with obligations and responsibilities, and I can't stand those..."

"Is that so..."

Ai seemed to understand Naruto's thinking: "Then why don't you just not become a ninja?"

"what?"

This time, Naruto was dumbfounded: "This works too?"

"What's wrong with that?"

Ai sneered, "As long as you're strong enough, nothing is impossible. Who says the Raikage has to be a ninja?"

"That makes sense..."

Naruto nodded awkwardly, feeling somewhat at a loss as the other party's bottom line was so low.

"Besides, the Raikage's responsibilities and obligations aren't as heavy as you think. In fact, you can just leave the work to your secretary."

"???"

"It's nothing. Isn't it only natural to leave professional tasks to professionals?"

Seeing Naruto's puzzled expression, A slowly clenched his fist.

"All you need to do is be the strongest! The Raikage can only be the strongest! Protecting the brothers in the village is enough!"

Naruto fell silent.

He was truly smitten.

He really will give it to you if the conditions are right!

"I guess... I'll just forget about it, haha..."

Naruto chuckled, "I'm too lazy and don't have any ambitions."

"That doesn't stop you from joining Kumogakure, does it?"

Ai slapped his thigh: "As long as you admit to being a member of Kumogakure, from today onwards you'll be my sworn brother, just like Killer Bee! The same conditions as before, and I'll absolutely not interfere with your freedom! How about it?"

"So thoughtful?"

Naruto looked shocked: "You don't need me to do anything?"

Ai waved his hand dismissively: "No need!"

Naruto nodded: "Then I agree."

As long as you nod and get a name on the signboard, you'll have everything you need. You'll start with the treatment of a village's shadow, and you won't hesitate to start a war.

He couldn't think of any reason to refuse such sincerity.

A whole village of gigolos!

Ai's eyes gleamed: "Really?"

Naruto nodded again: "Really."

"Ohhhhhhh!!!!!"

In an instant, it really was just an instant!

Tears welled up in Ai's eyes!

"Wake up! Bi!"

A kick woke up Killer Bee, who had just been kicked unconscious, and then grabbed Naruto's small hand.

"From today onwards, Naruto Uzumaki is our brother!!"

"Um?"

Killer Bee got up in a daze, pushed up his sunglasses, and gestured with his fist at Naruto.

"Today, we, brothers, are yay!"

"Uh...oh..."

Naruto chuckled and bumped fists with Killer Bee.

The moment he touched it, Naruto clearly sensed a surge of passionate and active chakra.

"Naruto, there's a deep chasm in your heart~ But don't be afraid, leave everything to Big Brother Bi, yay~"

Killer Bee withdrew his hand and continued gesturing, somewhat surprised himself.

This kid in front of me is one of the few people I don't feel any aversion to when I meet him for the first time!

But this guy seems... a bit lazy.
