Naruto: I, Naruto, started with the Rinnegan

"At the age of seven, he can already contend with Kurama for his body. When he grows up, Naruto will definitely be able to completely suppress Kurama, and may even become a Jinchūriki as powerful as Mito-sama..."

With this in mind, the Third Hokage was filled with anticipation and encouraged Naruto, "Naruto, do your best, you can definitely defeat it."

Seemingly drawing strength from the Third Hokage's words, Naruto truly overpowered the Nine-Tails.

The crimson tailed beast chakra returned to the fluid, and the fox-like features on the body gradually disappeared.

"It's an old man..."

Naruto glanced wearily at the Third Hokage, then collapsed and lost consciousness.

The three generations said with satisfaction, "Good child..."

The group, along with Naruto, returned to Konoha.

……

three days later.

Konoha Hospital.

Faced with the Third Hokage's kind question, Naruto frowned and recalled, his tone uncertain.

"That day I was on my way home when I suddenly heard a noise, and then I don't know how I passed out."

"When I woke up, I found an old man carrying me flying in the sky. I was so scared that I struggled desperately, and I accidentally fell down and then passed out again."

When I woke up, the old man was right in front of me...

"Who is that person? I don't know. I'm wondering the same thing. I don't know why they suddenly found out..."

Half an hour later, the third generation was sent off.

Naruto lay on the hospital bed, his mind sinking into the sealed space.

"Kurama, do you think I can fool Konoha?"

Naruto was somewhat insecure.

Although he felt his acting skills were perfect, he wasn't a professional actor after all, and he didn't know if he could fool the group of old foxes in Konoha.

The thousand-year-old fox, Nine-Tailed Fox, narrowed its eyes: "What's there to worry about? If you can't fool them, just leave Konoha and become a rogue ninja."

"Do you really want me to become a rogue ninja?"

When they first met, Kurama, driven by a desire for revenge against the Fourth Hokage, frequently urged Naruto to defect.

now……

Thinking of the Fourth Hokage, Kurama looked at its sharp nails, then looked down at Naruto, and fell silent.

Naruto sensed something was off: "What's wrong?"

Nine-Tails sighed inwardly and said in a muffled voice, "It's nothing. Try not to be a rogue ninja. It's too dangerous to be alone and weak."

"Yes, I know."

…………

The Uchiha clan was wiped out, but the Jinchuriki were lost and then returned.

After repeated discussions among Konoha's leadership regarding these two matters, a decision was finally made.

The Uchiha clan should take the blame, but Itachi should bear the primary responsibility.

However, given the magnitude of the blame, Itachi alone is not enough; a high-ranking member of Konoha needs to be sacrificed to quell the discontent of other ninja clans.

Danzo deserves the title of "King of Blame," since he was the one who spearheaded it all, so pinning the blame on him isn't an insult.

Therefore, the three generations of the family disbanded the Root and ordered Danzo to go home and reflect on his actions.

The pot that brought back the Jinchuriki wasn't big, because it was found.

The key issue is how to deal with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the future.

This can only be decided by the Hokage.

Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu suggested that instead of wasting time going to school, they should directly control the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, train them separately, and develop them into combat forces.

The Third Hokage refused, saying, "No, Naruto is Minato's child. We've already let Minato down; we can't let Minato's child down too."

Koharu Utatane said in a serious tone, "Minato, as the Fourth Hokage, has always been a man of great principle. I believe he will understand us."

The third generation naturally didn't believe her nonsense and continued to refuse.

"Jinchūriki will gain power sooner or later, so there's no need to rush training. What's important is their mindset and their bond with the village..."

…………

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and Naruto was discharged from the hospital.

Sasuke, who was cold from head to toe, was also discharged from the hospital at the same time as him.

"What a poor child..."

At the hospital entrance, Naruto glanced sympathetically at Sasuke beside him, lamenting that he had an older brother with an unusually strange way of thinking...

But it has nothing to do with me.

Naruto didn't respond and started to leave.

An arm blocked Naruto's path, and Sasuke coldly asked, "Do you know something?"

"What do I know?"

Naruto looked completely bewildered.

"The way you looked at me just now was exactly the same as it did a week ago..."

Sasuke's eyes darkened.

A week ago, he had a happy family and a fulfilling life, but a week later, his family was torn apart and his entire clan was wiped out.

However, Naruto always looked at him with the eyes of someone looking at an orphan, as if he had long anticipated his fate.

Naruto was speechless: "You're being way too sensitive..."

It was just a small glance, yet you still remember it.

Answer my question!

Sasuke stepped forward, intending to grab Naruto's collar, but Naruto reacted quickly and slapped Sasuke's hand away.

"If you're going to talk, talk properly. Don't resort to physical violence."

Naruto explained, "I already explained and apologized to you about what happened a week ago... I only saw you just now because I heard some things about you at the hospital."

Sasuke refused to believe it: "That's all?"

Naruto countered, "Then what do you think I should know?"

"you……"

You should have foreseen what would happen to the Uchiha clan and told me in advance so I could avoid that outcome.

But Sasuke knew that this was just an unrealistic hope, and it was impossible for it to happen in reality.

"Stop looking at me like that. I don't need your pity."

Sasuke regained his composure, warned Naruto, and then turned and left.

Naruto frowned in thought, "What he said... makes sense."

Do unto others, do not impose on others.

As an orphan in two lifetimes, Naruto dislikes being looked at with pity, as if he were inferior.

…………

At the Ninja Academy, Naruto and Sasuke walked into the classroom one after the other.

Sakura, Ino, and other girls from the class ran over, past Naruto, and came to Sasuke, their faces showing worry and concern.

"Sasuke, are you alright?"

The news of the Uchiha clan has spread throughout Konoha, and they are all worried that their idols will not be able to withstand the blow.

Sasuke shoved the women aside and coldly snapped, "Get out of my way!"

He had no time to pay attention to these women, because he had only one goal for the rest of his life—to become stronger and then kill that man!

"Sasuke..."

Some girls are worried that their crush has become very cold.

However, some girls fall for this, cupping their faces in their hands and their eyes sparkling with hearts.

"Sasuke looks even cooler now!"

…………

"Naruto, how are you? Are you alright?"

Naruto returned to his seat, and Choji, Kiba, Shikamaru, and Shino came up to greet him.

They were all men, a stark contrast to Sasuke's group.

However, Naruto didn't seem to mind, or rather, he was even more pleased. He smiled and said, "It's alright, look, I'm here to school now, aren't I?"

Shikamaru and the others didn't ask any further questions. As members of the ninja clan, they vaguely understood that the matter concerning Naruto was very sensitive.

If you can avoid talking about it, then do so.

After a brief chat, the class bell rang, and everyone dispersed to their respective seats.
