They were probably taken away by the Third Hokage's orders from the Anbu long ago.

But now it's his own grandson who's taking Naruto away.

Thinking of Bai Ye's outrageous personality,

The third generation's face immediately darkened.

If Naruto turned into that too,

Konoha is in danger.

If the Nine-Tails is accidentally released, no one in the village can seal it back down.

Just as Hiruzen Sarutobi was pondering how to handle the situation,

Danzo, however, went to the Hokage's office.

Seeing Hiruzen Sarutobi deep in thought, Danzo couldn't help but say, "Don't you understand Byakuya?"

There's always a reason behind everything he does.

"Don't forget, half of Konoha's commercial street now belongs to our two families, and that was all Byakuya's idea!"

"Having a Jinchuriki by Byakuya's side is perfect; he can become a weapon in Byakuya's hands."

After Danzo finished speaking,

Hiruzen Sarutobi stopped worrying about it.

However, seeing Danzo approaching...

Hiruzen Sarutobi asked suspiciously, "You didn't come here because of this, did you?"

"Tell me~"

Friends of many years

Hiruzen Sarutobi really knew Danzo too well.

really,

Upon hearing Hiruzen's words,

Danzo couldn't help but laugh and asked, "What do you think of the abilities that Byakuya displayed yesterday?"

Hearing this,

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced suspiciously at Danzo.

"You wouldn't even be eyeing your own grandson, would you?"

"Hmph, I'm not that despicable!"

"Don't forget, that brat Byakuya doesn't have chakra, and the ninja world isn't just Konoha."

At this point, Danzo immediately offered an explanation, albeit with a hint of annoyance.

However, regarding Danzo...

Hiruzen Sarutobi also secretly took it seriously.

Don't be fooled by the fact that everything seems peaceful in the ninja world right now.

However, Kumogakure and Iwagakure have always been eyeing Konoha covetously.

"Okay, I'll increase the protection for Bai Ye."

"That's good~"

Seeing this, Danzo said no more, turned and left the office.

However, after returning home...

Additional personnel were also deployed for protection.

As for Hiruzen Sarutobi, he remained silent for a moment,

He spoke into the empty room, "Go and call Kakashi here."

"Give him a mission!"

After all,

A figure vanished outside the window in an instant.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's gaze fell once again on the crystal ball beside him.

Bai Ye and Naruto had already arrived at the commercial street.

"Greetings, Young Master Bai Ye~"

"Young Master Bai Ye, what brings you here?"

Chapter Nine: Raising Naruto into a Shameless Person

"Greetings, Young Master Bai Ye~"

"Young Master Bai Ye, what brings you here?"

"These fruits have just come into season, Young Master Baiye, please have a taste!"

The merchants on the commercial street, upon seeing the arrival of Bai Ye,

Immediately, everyone began to greet them warmly.

after all,

Half of the properties in Konoha's commercial districts have been acquired by the Sarutobi and Shimura families.

As for how they won it...

I understand everything,

Almost everything built after that belonged to the two companies.

It's all because of Yamato, the little house-building expert, at the base.

Therefore, most merchants now rent houses from the Sarutobi clan.

You can't be polite.

Bai Ye simply ignored these merchants.

At this moment, the merchants also noticed Naruto following behind Bai Ye.

One by one, doubts began to creep into their hearts.

However, no one dared to show their disgust towards Naruto in front of Byakuya.

Naruto, who was initially a little worried,

Looking at the seemingly ingratiating smiles around him,

That smile was one I had never seen before.

Filled with confusion,

Naruto, unsure how to speak, simply followed behind Byakuya in a daze.

And in my heart,

Yet, a different feeling arose within me.

The two soon arrived at a barbecue restaurant.

A beautiful figure was already waiting there.

"Young Master Bai Ye, everything is arranged."

It was Uchiha Izumi, who had just become Byakuya's personal maid.

Looking at Izumi, who was so respectful to Bai Ye,

Naruto felt another wave of envy.

However, Naruto's attention was soon drawn to the sizzling, oily grilled meat.

"Gudu~"

Naruto, who had never eaten barbecue before,

He immediately started swallowing hard.

Seeing this scene, Bai Ye felt both heartbroken and amused.

"Eat~"

"Huh? You really invited me to eat?!"

Hearing Bai Ye's words,

Naruto was immediately delighted, but then he cautiously glanced at Byakuya.

It was as if he was thinking about what he had that would make Bai Ye invite him to dinner.

It's just like,

Spending too much time in a dark corner,

Suddenly, light shone in.

The first thing to do is not to feel it.

Instead, it was a cautious, tentative approach.

Bai Ye noticed Naruto's wariness and said, "Eat up, you're not asking to be my friend~"

"What? You're scared again?"

Upon hearing this,

Naruto couldn't help but give an awkward smile.

They then began to feast.

This is the first time I've ever had such delicious barbecue.

It was with my first friend again.

As Naruto ate his grilled meat, a tear seemed to glisten in the corner of his eye.

They quickly disappeared again.

after all,

It's quite remarkable that Naruto has lived this long.

Aside from Ichiraku Ramen, no other restaurant would serve Naruto.

And the stores only sell food that is close to its expiration date.

They often went hungry and had to go fishing to fill their stomachs.

Thinking of this,

Byakuya became even more determined to turn Naruto into his underling.

He was supposed to become a scheming man like Bi Sha, but instead he became the sun that saved the world.

That is indeed unscientific.

Soon after they had eaten and drunk their fill,

Bai Ye then gestured towards the spring beside him.

The latter, understanding perfectly, closed the cubicle door.

"Naruto, do you want to know why the villagers hate you?"

Hearing Bai Ye's words,

Naruto asked urgently, "Why?"

The experiences of these years,

Naruto was very eager to know why.
