Chapter 155
As a result, he would look like a clown.
Because he resented Naruto's Nine-Tailed Demon Fox identity, he arbitrarily exercised his power.
"Naruto... I'm sorry..."
Iruka patted Naruto's shoulder, then personally tied his headband onto Naruto.
"Anyway... From today on, you are a true Ninja!"
"That's great~!"
Watching Naruto burst into innocent laughter.
Iruka felt that perhaps... Naruto stomping Mizuki to death was because Naruto was too innocent.
After all, children have an innocent cruelty... just like a toddler using a magnifying glass to burn ants under the sun... so it must have been his overthinking...
The next morning.
Naruto finished his photo, and pasted it onto his "Ninja Registration Book".
The so-called registration book refers to... "Ninja ID Card".
This document will be submitted to the Third Hokage later, and then he will swear allegiance to Konoha in person and so on...
"The Nine-Tailed interfered with me~, that's why I couldn't learn the Clone Technique~, and why last night's incident happened..."
Naruto muttered as he walked.
"Bullshit~!! That's because you don't have the talent to learn the Clone Technique!"
The Nine-Tailed immediately roared.
It wouldn't indulge Naruto anymore.
It had been complained about for years, even though this kid got the benefit and still acted innocent!
This is truly something the Eight-Tails can endure, but I, the Nine-Tailed, cannot!
And... that kid Ashura back then, it was the same, he didn't have the talent to learn the Clone Technique.
Naruto: "I've been drinking expired milk since I was little..."
"Because you bought too much at once, so it expired!" the Nine-Tailed corrected again.
"Sure enough, Sako is a genius... and I'm a dead last mediocre talent..."
Naruto thought of Sako, who got first place in yesterday's graduation exam.
You are the reincarnation of Ashura's Chakra!
The Nine-Tailed roared in its heart.
Thus, Naruto was continuously complained about by the Nine-Tailed as he arrived at the Hokage Building.
In the hall for the appointment report.
Naruto sat down, facing the Third Hokage, and began to read robotically: "From today on... I love Konoha, I love the villagers..."
The Third Hokage looked at Naruto's Ninjaregistration document, thinking that this child would definitely be fine.
But there was one child who was very problematic.
Glancing at the time, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt that... it was almost time.
"Jii-chan~!"
The next second, the door burst open, and Konohamaru ran in.
"Let's have a match! As long as I defeat you, I can become the Fifth Hokage!"
Konohamaru, missing a front tooth, stumbled after two steps, letting out an "Ouch!" as he tripped over himself!
"Grandson~, Young Master, are you alright~!" Ebisu, wearing sunglasses, quickly asked.
"Sigh!"
Hiruzen Sarutobi pulled down his hat brim, looking as if he couldn't bear to watch.
His youngest son, Asuma, was useless.
His grandson, Konohamaru, was even worse.
The old Sarutobi family... was worrying.
"Damn it! Is this a trap?! Huh?! Or... was it your doing~?"
As Konohamaru's tone rose.
He discovered Naruto and thought Naruto was behind it.
And Ebisu, upon seeing Naruto, immediately showed a disdainful expression: "Hmph, the Nine-Tailed brat? He's the useless trash I hate the most!"
"Kid, kid, come, come, come..."
Naruto waved at Konohamaru. After repeated confirmation that the other party was indeed looking for him, Konohamaru walked towards Naruto.
The next second.
Naruto patted his shoulder and told him: "Kid, there's no shortcut to becoming Hokage~."
Listening to Naruto's profound words, the Nine-Tailed cursed in its heart: Bullshit!
The Daimyo's son is the Daimyo.
The Daimyo's advisor's son is the Daimyo's advisor.
This is an eternal truth.
It's the same in a Ninja village.
Humans have been Original Place Spin (stuck in a loop) for 1000 years.
"Hmph... What you, the yellow-haired one, said is not bad, it is indeed so."
Ebisu joined the conversation from the side.
"Only those with noble blood can become Hokage... just like our Young Master Konohamaru!"
Ebisu, with a fawning face, arrogantly introduced Konohamaru's background.
"No~, this sunglasses guy, bloodline doesn't decide everything, only effort can earn everyone's recognition."
Naruto shook his head, his gaze even more profound.
His resolute expression made the Third HokageHiruzen Sarutobi nod repeatedly.
"Just like I, Uzumaki Naruto, got to where I am today through my own efforts~!"
Nine-Tailed: "You're full of shit!!!"
x2.
The Nine-Tailed meant that bloodline decides everything, and Uzumaki Naruto didn't get to where he is today through his own efforts either.
Because Naruto's declaration was too serious, too perceptive.
Konohamaru, whose eyes were suddenly opened to a new world, nodded ignorantly.
"Is that so..."
"That's right." Naruto also nodded. "It seems you've grasped the truth of this world, very good... Follow this path, and... one day, you will truly understand the will of fire... Young Konohamaru."
"Hai, hai hai hai..."
Konohamaru chuckled foolishly.
Although he didn't fully understand, he felt it made a lot of sense and sounded very comforting.
"Hmph... Then I'll go back to training first."
With that, Konohamaru turned and walked away with Ebisu.
"Naruto is a really good kid..."
Hiruzen Sarutobi thought.
He handled his troublesome grandson in just a few moves.
This kind of leadership is just like Minato's.
Chapter 100. Hinata and Sako, Naruto's Love Triangle [Ten Updates]
"I heard that Naruto successfully became a Ninja..."
Such news quickly spread among the upper echelons.
Kakashi, who had already shed his Anbu identity, had led several teams, all ending in them being advised to quit.
Now, he received a new mission... to lead a team consisting of Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sako, and Sakura Haruno.
Of course, the official assignment was two days later.
Jonin Class Lounge.
Many Konoha Jonin were leisurely drinking tea or coffee here.
The Ninja World had become increasingly peaceful, so there weren't many dangerous tasks.
Hyuga Hiashi and other Jonin who occasionally came also learned the news of Naruto becoming an official Ninja.
Originally somewhat worried, he immediately nodded.
Indeed... if Naruto, who could kill Biwa Jūzō, couldn't become a Genin, that would truly be a joke.
He heard that the Ninja Academy teacher named Mizuki died a terrible death... After Hyuga Hiashifinished receiving the intelligence, he turned and left. He planned to have Hinata bring some souvenirs, plus food... Soon after, Uchiha Fugakuarrived, learned the specific intelligence, and quickly left as well.
Just like that.
Kakashi watched these big shots come and go.
He couldn't help but think... his teacher's child was truly receiving more and more attention.
Recent changes in Anbu.
Yamato was transferred from Anbu Squad Six to the direct command of Hokage-sama.
His former comrades were leaderless for a period, but Yūgao quickly rose to power, becoming the leader of everyone.
They said that Yūgao, who had come from behind, had now become very, very strong.
--Perhaps even stronger than Captain Kakashi.
His former subordinates said so during their most recent meeting.
This surprised Kakashi, while also making him happy for Yūgao and his other former subordinates.
But if Yūgao became too strong, would Hayate be unable to handle her?
After all, Yūgao was now a bona fide strong woman.
What Kakashi didn't know was... Naruto had continuously strengthened Yūgao, almost to the highest level she could currently reach.
To become stronger would require more tails to burst out... even entering a "Semi-Tailed BeastState."
And with Itachi's defection.
Naruto could finally extend his demonic claws towards Uchiha Mikoto... and others.
"The team assignment is the day after tomorrow... I wonder how those three little brats are..."
Kakashi scratched his head.
