Naruto

Chapter 39 Best Buddies

"Grandpa, my mission has been completed!" Naruto stood in the Hokage's office and excitedly reported to the third generation Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen, "The specific process..."

"I have already listened to your shadow clone's report." Hiruzen knocked on his pipe and interrupted his statement.

"Haha, is that so? That's because I'm talking too much." The young man touched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly.

These shadow clones are really more energetic than my main body...

Hiruzen took a puff of dry smoke and waved to Naruto: "Come, come to me, let me take a good look at you."

The young man walked up to Hiruzen obediently, stood with his hands down, and quietly accepted the other person's inspection.

After a while, the Third Hokage placed his pipe in the ashtray on the table and said slowly: "I plan to transfer the Fourth Generation's inheritance to you tomorrow. What do you think?"

The young man's expression was slightly dull, he shook his head and decisively refused: "I am now a genin and can support myself. It is better to donate those inheritance to the orphanage and almshouse in the village. It is considered as my repayment to the village when I was a child.

Take care of my kindness."

Favor? If this sentence hadn't come from Naruto's mouth, Hiruzen would have thought that he was mocking the Leaf Village for being ungrateful and treating the hero's son badly.

"...At least you should inherit their property. Xianglin and you are both thirteen years old. If for no other reason, you have to think about her reputation, right? You guys have been crowded together in that single apartment for a long time.

Well, all kinds of rumors may spread in the village." The third generation Hokage said calmly.

"...Grandpa is right." Naruto lowered his head and replied softly, "Do I still need to keep the secret about my identity?"

"During the high-level meeting that just ended, Shimura Danzo has been removed from his position as a root and has been temporarily replaced by Kakashi. No one else is opposed to revealing your identity. After all, they all appreciate your strength and loyalty to Konoha.

In the eyes.”

"Duanzo didn't make any overreaction, did he?"

"No. Don't rush to find Kakashi. He is still busy handing over the work." Hiruzen took out a key and a document from the cabinet, and handwritten a note and handed it over.

He gave it to Naruto, "Here are the keys and property certificate of that house. You can go directly to handle the transfer procedures later. If anyone wants to doubt your identity, show them this note."

"

"You don't have to worry about other things in the past few days. Adjust your physical and mental state and be ready to go to Miaomu Mountain to practice." Hiruzen touched Naruto's head and smiled kindly.

"Thank you, Grandpa." The young man took these things with both hands and showed a bright smile on his face.

He was finally able to see with his own eyes the place where his parents once lived. He said to himself excitedly.

After bidding farewell to Hiruzen, the boy turned into a gust of wind and walked between the eaves. A minute later, he arrived at the door of the Konoha office.

"Hey! Naruto!" As soon as Naruto landed on the ground, he heard a familiar voice from behind.

"Hey, Kiba, you're here too? Are there any procedures to go through here?" Naruto turned around, said hello, stretched out his right arm familiarly, and hooked Inuzuka Kiba's shoulder,

The whispers of passers-by came to my ears:

"Naruto? This is what happened with the first generation a few days ago.

Is he the ninja who saved the lives of all the people in the village? It’s unbelievable that he is so young.”

"With his bright golden hair and a few scars on his face that look like cat whiskers, he must be him. He is really young and promising."

"He looks like a very ordinary kid."

"I remember that a few years ago, he was called the nine-tailed demon fox by the whole village..."

Ya ignored these boring comments, put his hands in his pockets, and said leisurely: "I just help my sister run errands. Who is like you, spending all day among women, with Xianglin in your left hand, and Sakura in your right hand?

Hinata also..."

"Stop, stop, stop, what nonsense are you talking about? Since when did I have an inappropriate relationship with them?" Naruto interrupted his complaint in a fit of laughter and laughter, and stretched out his hand to lightly hit him on the back of the head as punishment, "You

It’s okay to hurt me, if such words reach the ears of those girls, they will be unhappy.”

"Who told you to forget about your brothers when you have a woman? The last few times we invited you out for dinner, you always made excuses to avoid it..." Akamaru came out of Ya's arms and barked a few times.

, echoing his words.

"But those few times I did have important things to do... Well, I'm moving to a new house tomorrow. How about Ichiraku treat you to a ramen meal at noon today?" Naruto scratched his head in distress, and suddenly

His eyes lit up, he patted Ya's shoulder and suggested with a smile.

"Moving to a new house? You?" Ya opened his eyes wide and asked in surprise, "Where did you get so much money?"

"This is my parents' inheritance, but it's only now that I'm qualified to inherit it." Naruto looked at the property certificate he held in his left hand and said calmly.

"Why have I never heard about your parents before? Is there any hidden secret?" Ya seemed to know that this was a taboo topic and asked in a low voice.

Naruto raised his head and looked at the always handsome portrait on the far right side of the Hokage Rock. The corner of his mouth curled up and he said proudly: "My father is the fourth Hokage of Konoha Village, Namikaze Minato."

"ha?!"

Half an hour later, Naruto, Shikamaru, Kiba, and Choji sat side by side in front of the long table of Ichiraku Ramen. Choji and Naruto were struggling to stuff large portions of ramen into their mouths, while Shikamaru and Kiba stood aside.

Digesting the shocking news I just heard.

"Hey, let me tell you, the texture of ramen will be much worse after it clumps together. You'd better start eating!" Naruto raised his face, which was red from the heat, and shouted to the two people who refused to use their chopsticks.

.

"No wonder it was so troublesome when dad allowed me to have contact with you." Shikamaru shook his head and picked up the chopsticks resignedly.

"Haha, so I have to thank Shikaku-sama. If he refuses to let go, you, a trouble-shy guy, will definitely not be friends with me." Naruto grinned.

"Who knows about that kind of thing?" Shikamaru shrugged and took a sip of noodle soup.

"When did you know the identity of your parents?" Ya picked up a fish plate, put it into Akamaru's mouth, and asked softly.

The blond boy was silent for a while and replied: "The first scene I saw after I was born was my father and mother standing in front of me, with the nine tails' sharp claws piercing their chests. They sacrificed their lives to protect Konoha.

own life, and

I chose to seal the Nine-Tails into my body."

Seeing everyone stop what they were doing, he cursed himself for ruining the atmosphere and quickly changed the subject, "Ahem, let's not talk about these old things from thirteen years ago. What have you been busy with recently?"

"Escorts, catching bandits, most of them are boring tasks." Choci picked up the sea bowl, drank a whole bowl of noodle soup, wiped his mouth and said, "But once we

and a man named Black Hoe Lei Ya from Kirigakure Village.

The rebellious ninja fought with him. According to Mr. Asuma, he was one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and the holder of the Thunder Sword Fang. His Thunder Release Ninjutsu was so powerful that it could trigger lightning in nature and also

It can be combined with his ninja sword and turn into hundreds of thunder snakes."

"Then how did you defeat him in the end?" Ya asked curiously.

"Shikamaru provoked him with words and led him into an open-air magnetite, where his Thunder Release Ninjutsu became difficult to control. After the battle started, I first led him around to consume his energy.

chakra, and then Shikamaru used shadow imitation to restrain his actions

, before he could break free from Shikamaru's ninjutsu, Ino used the Heart Turn Jutsu to control his mind, and finally Asuma-sensei took the opportunity to cut his throat with a chakra knife." Choji put down his chopsticks regretfully,

Briefly describe the process for Naruto and Kiba.

"It was indeed a wonderful battle. You guys cooperated very well!" Naruto swallowed half the egg in his hand and gave a thumbs up to Shikamaru and Choji.

"It's better to have less trouble like this." Shikamaru pushed aside the seaweed in the noodle bowl and said lazily, "Besides, for a ninja of that level, even one of your shadow clones may

I can’t beat him.”

"It's not such an exaggeration..." Naruto retorted in a low voice.

"You guys, why are you trying to show off in front of us?"

"That's right!"

"Shikamaru is right!"

"Woof!"

"Ugh..." Under the contemptuous gazes of the three people and the dog, Naruto hugged his bowl and made a sound like a cat, looking at them pitifully.

"Okay, okay, stop acting like this. You don't feel embarrassed, but we still feel embarrassed." Ya pushed Naruto and asked, "I heard that you are going on a long trip in a few days?

"

"Well, I don't know how long it will take to come back. If it's short, it's one year. If it's long, it might be two or three years..." A trace of melancholy flashed across Naruto's face, but it was replaced by a cheerful smile in an instant.

"Next time we meet, maybe I will be the only genin, so you should take care of me more then."

"If that's the case, you should respectfully call me Captain Inuzuka. Why don't you call someone to listen to me now?" Ya approached Naruto and said enthusiastically.

"Stop daydreaming. I will definitely embrace Shikamaru's lap when the time comes, so I won't team up with an unreliable guy like you."

"Damn it...Naruto Uzumaki! Show off your dignity as a man and come to the training ground to compete with me!"

"...I am still a child, not a man."

"You... where is your face?"

"What's the face? Is the ramen delicious?"

Hands who was cleaning up the dishes at the side saw such a lively scene, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
