Naruto: I, Naruto, started with the Rinnegan

When Naruto found his ninja way!

He began to take the initiative, unafraid of the strange looks from others, and embarked on his journey in the underworld.

Target—all shops that don't sell him anything.

------

Konoha Year 54, end of the year.

Konoha Village.

In the forest, a gray rabbit was running away quickly, with Naruto holding a javelin in hot pursuit.

During this period, Naruto earned a lot of money, tens of thousands of taels, enough for him to live a good life for a while.

But I couldn't control myself for a moment and bought a set of tools specifically for carving, and I was instantly brought back to my old ways.

Although they weren't starving, they still had to go out fishing and hunting frequently to supplement their income.

Most of the time, they were catching fish.

For a three-year-old child, hunting is simply too much to ask.

Just like now, the rabbit was chasing further and further away, and was about to disappear.

In his haste, Naruto threw the object with all his might, regardless of whether it would hit its target.

call out!

A moment later, a scream echoed from the depths of the forest, followed by an angry male voice shouting, "Damn it, which bastard attacked me?"

Oh no, we're doomed, we've stabbed someone.

Shrinking his neck, Naruto silently turned around, just as he was about to run away...

The man who had been accidentally injured had already rushed over.

"Kid, is that you?"

The man was wearing a black mask and had a stab wound on his groin.

He held a blood-stained javelin and stood menacingly in front of Naruto.

"Who are you?"

Naruto looked closely and discovered that the other person was carrying a little girl about his age on their back.

Her appearance is quite familiar; if Naruto isn't mistaken, it should be Hinata Hyuga.

Naruto suddenly realized, "You Cloud Ninja have come to Konoha again to kidnap little girls."

First there was Kushina, now there's Hinata; one is a mother, the other is an official wife.

Both of them are women who are close to Naruto. It's like the Cloud Village has a deep-seated hatred for Naruto.

It's decided...

If I become the Azure Emperor in the future, I will definitely crush Yunyin to the ground.

Naruto secretly made a vow.

The Cloud Ninja's name is Takayama. He is a member of the Cloud Village delegation that came to Konoha for negotiations the day before yesterday. He is currently on a mission to steal a little girl.

The operation is progressing smoothly.

But then disaster struck; a javelin suddenly flew at him, catching him off guard and nearly robbing him of his manhood.

Enraged by such a deep-seated hatred, Gao Shan charged forward without regard for anything else.

Hearing Naruto reveal his identity so readily, Takayama grew even more emboldened and sneered, "Kid, didn't your master tell you that knowing too much is a bad thing?"

Naruto calmly said, "My family told me that men who abduct little girls will die a horrible death."

As soon as he finished speaking, two ANBU appeared and stood in front of Naruto.

The ANBU member wearing the bull-head mask said in a deep voice, "Yue, take Naruto away immediately. Leave this to me!"

The ANBU member wearing the dog-head mask nodded, picked up Naruto, and ran away.

Feeling the softness of the ANBU's chest, Naruto realized that this must be a female ninja.

And she's a very beautiful female ninja...

As for why Naruto knew the female ninja was beautiful...

Of course I guessed.

Men are all like that; they tend to think the best of women they haven't seen clearly.

But pretty female ninjas aren't important right now.

The important thing is that Naruto doesn't want to leave; he wants to see real ninja battles.

Naruto struggled to say, "Let's stay and help."

"Behave yourself!"

What good can a little kid like you do? You're lucky if you don't cause trouble.

Yue kept moving and tightened her arms to hug Naruto even more.

Immersed in the bouncy texture, Naruto felt dizzy...

"The Dark Division's mission is to protect your safety; we can't take any risks, especially since you're incredibly powerful..."

Bang!

A figure flew backward and crashed to the ground; it was the powerful senior member of the Dark Guard.

The senior ANBU member, unable to muster any more strength, could only weakly remind him, "Cough cough, Yue, run! The opponent is a Jonin."

Jonin are the elite force of a ninja village, and their numbers are scarce. Even Konoha cannot afford to use Jonin to protect Naruto.

Both of them were Chunin, and even working together they couldn't defeat a Jonin, let alone attacking alone; it would be like offering themselves up for death.

Takayama intercepted the fleeing Tsuki, looked at Naruto in her arms, licked his lips, and smiled smugly: "I think I've run into a big fish... Hand him over, and I'll spare your life."

Clang!

The one who answered Takayama was to draw his sword and confront him. Tsuki put Naruto down, his gaze never leaving Takayama, and said seriously to Naruto.

"Quick! Run into the village and don't look back. Someone will come to rescue you."

"I……"

"immediately!"

"……Understood."

Without any power of my own, staying here would be pointless and would only be a hindrance.

For the first time in his life, Naruto clearly felt the importance of power in the dangerous ninja world.

Power, oh power, I want power too.

As he fled, Naruto clenched his fists and thought to himself.

"The Dance of the Crescent Moon!"

A faint, cold female voice came from behind, followed by a metallic clanging sound.

A minute later, Naruto looked at the disheveled mountain in front of him, holding a bloodstained kunai, and reluctantly stopped running.

Takayama said dejectedly, "Kid, who exactly are you? Why are the Konoha Anbu risking their lives to stop me?"

Risking their lives?

Naruto's face darkened as he considered a certain possibility.

"It's fine if you don't tell me, we'll find out by taking you back and torturing you, hehe..."

As he spoke, Takayama pressed closer and closer to Naruto.

Naruto tried to stall for time: "Wait, I'll talk."

Gao Shan gave him no chance: "I'm not waiting. We've already wasted too much time. I'm going to grab you now. Surrender!"

You fucking...

Naruto took a deep breath, retreating step by step, inwardly cursing the Konoha villagers for being a bunch of idiots who hadn't come yet. He feigned anger and said, "Does Kumogakure want to start a war?"

Hmm, that sounds so familiar...

Oh, right, this is something we Cloud Ninja often say to Konoha.

Gao Shan said with a strange expression, "You... you think you can start a war?"

Naruto proudly puffed out his chest and said, "Of course, the Third Hokage knows, right? He called me Grandpa."

"You're kidding me!"

"Sorry, it was a slip of the tongue. I meant to call him 'Grandpa Three Generations.'"

"You're the grandson of the Third Hokage?"

Takayama sized up Naruto: blond hair, blue eyes, and six distinctive whiskers on each cheek.

He thought to himself, "This isn't right. I've seen the Third Hokage before, but he doesn't look like this."

Does this mean the son of the third generation was cheated on, or that the third generation himself was cheated on...?

"Forget it, who cares who cheated on whom, let's arrest them first... Anyway, Konoha is a bunch of cowards. Even if we Kumogakure arrest the Third Hokage's grandfather, Konoha will probably just pretend nothing happened."

Thinking this with such confidence, Takayama ignored Naruto's threatening words and resolutely extended his claws towards Naruto.
