Konoha: Naruto's abnormal life choices

Chapter 45 Insider Information



A week later, the sun was shining brightly.

Naruto got up, washed up, and stood in front of the life-size mirror to tidy up his appearance and comb his hair into an adult style.

Thinking that he was going to take the Chunin Exam next and might encounter some emergencies, Naruto changed his white clothes into stain-resistant black.

On the way to the ninja school, I bought some delicious meat buns for breakfast today.

As he walked, Naruto noticed something was wrong. The streets of Konoha today were a little strange, too quiet, and there was a faint mist all around.

It was obviously sunny when I first went out.

What a boring illusion.

After finishing the meat buns and throwing the plastic bag into the trash can, Naruto stretched and continued walking forward.

At this time, a masked man wearing a rain ninja forehead protector suddenly appeared in the fog in front of Naruto. He was also holding a child wearing a long blue scarf in his hand.

"Good morning Konohamaru!"

Naruto greeted Konohamaru in an unusually friendly manner, and then walked around the rain ninja.

The rain ninja seemed to be stunned for two seconds, and then suddenly shouted: "Hahaha, I didn't expect to catch the grandson of the Third Hokage. I have to take him back to the village to claim credit."

However, Naruto still had no intention of coming back to save Konohamaru, and kept walking forward.

Seeing Naruto's figure getting further and further away, Yu Ninja scratched his head in confusion, grabbed Konohamaru and ran to Naruto, saying viciously.

"Kid, have you seen me?"

"Oh, I didn't see it."

Yu Ren couldn't stand it any longer: "The one I caught is the grandson of your Third Hokage. Aren't you going to save him?"

"Oh, then you should take him away quickly." Naruto reminded kindly: "If you don't leave, you won't be able to leave when the Third Generation comes."

"." For a moment, the scene fell into a strange awkwardness.

Watching Naruto's back gradually fade away, Iruka released the transformation technique, and Konohamaru in his hand turned into a scarecrow.

Iruka was a little confused. Did Naruto pass or fail this small test before the exam?

"."

Staring at the scene in the third Hokage's crystal ball, Akimichi Tingzao frowned: "Why does this disciple of Kakashi not value his partners so much? Can such a person really be trusted to become a ninja?"

Everyone else present had similar feelings, especially Mitarashi Anko. Looking at Naruto who was indifferent to Konohamaru's safety, she approached Yuhi Kurenai with some disappointment and said:

"Hong, this little guy you know has a bad character."

"Don't talk nonsense." Yuhi Hong retorted: "Naruto should have realized that something was wrong."

"Haha, if you really find that something is wrong, you should have a fight with the rain ninja pretending to be Iruka. It would be too much to just leave like this."

Anko complained for a while and noticed that Yuhi Hong's expression was already slightly impatient. She muttered in a low voice: "Forget it, I will help you train her when the time comes. Just teach her well."

"Haha, stop arguing." Sandai smiled and took a puff of his cigarette: "Anyway, Naruto was not confused this time, even if he passed."

The third generation's guess was similar to Yuhi Kurenai's. He also felt that with Naruto's strength, he might have done this because he had discovered it long ago.

After all, Naruto's desperate attempt to save Konohamaru happened just a few days ago, so the Third Generation had no reason to doubt Naruto.

It's just that the third generation never thought about defending Naruto. If others are willing to misunderstand, then just misunderstand him. The deeper the misunderstanding, the better.

In the end, it would be up to him or Konohamaru to solve Naruto's problem.

Kurenai Yuhi and Sandai guessed half of it right. Naruto did find out from the beginning that those things were all fake, but he never thought that it was true that he went to save Konohamaru, even if it was just Konohamaru turned into a scarecrow.

A week ago, Naruto kindly rescued Konohamaru from the ungrateful Kankuro. Naruto also thought that the third generation might show kindness to him, but it turned out that the third generation's lesson came first.

The next day, Sandai came to him and told him a lot of nonsense, such as how to be kind to others, and how to tolerate when the village didn't say anything, etc., which really disgusted Naruto.

He was simply teaching Naruto how to be a turtle.

It's really hopeless to think of yourself as a bastard and try to make others become a bastard too.

Naruto didn't leave for long, and the surroundings resumed the flow of people. Many customers gathered in the shops in the streets and alleys. When he passed by the flower shop of the Yamanaka family, he saw a familiar figure.

After the beautiful-looking blond girl saw Naruto, the corners of her lips curved up slightly, and she trotted closer to Naruto.

"Naruto, long time no see."

"Well, long time no see."

Naruto looked at Ino, who was dressed in a more open style, and asked, "Do you want to go to school together?"

"Oh~ how did you know that I'm going to school too." Ino's eyes were filled with smiles. Her hair swayed slightly when she reached out to rub her chin. She asked with a smile, "Are you secretly paying attention to me?"

nerve!

My hobbies are similar to Nohara Shinnosuke. You are not my type. I pay attention to what you do.

Naruto said calmly: "Aren't you going? Then I will go by myself."

"Hey, why are you like this? Wait for me."

Ino followed Naruto's footsteps and walked side by side with Naruto, hands behind their backs.

Naruto didn't take the initiative to talk to her. She waited for a while and took the initiative to think of a topic: "Naruto, were you in danger just now?"

"No." Naruto said calmly.

"Ah, how could it be?" Ino said angrily when he heard this: "I thought it was a test that everyone encounters. Am I the only one?"

"Maybe." Naruto nodded and treated Ino perfunctorily.

His answer immediately made Ino fearful. Ino first told Naruto about the situation she encountered and asked whether it was because the village felt that she was not strong enough, so they came up with this to test her.

Naruto said it was possible.

Ino was even more disappointed.

The two chatted while walking, and not long after, they met Choji and Shikamaru who were waiting for Ino on the road near the Ninja School.

Choji was a little happy to see Naruto. Naruto had a good relationship with him and Shikamaru when they were still in the ninja school. After leaving the ninja school, they hadn't spoken to each other properly for several months.

After chatting for a while, Choji suddenly handed Naruto a bag of potato chips.

Naruto was wondering when Chouji, a foodie, would be so generous with food, when Chouci asked: "Naruto, do you know the inside story about Asuma-sensei and Sasuke?"

Hearing this, Ino and Shikamaru immediately pricked up their ears to listen.

The two of them had wanted to ask for a long time. One was a mentor jounin and the other was a former classmate. Things about these two people were really exciting to them.

Now Asma is still in confinement, and the elders in the family are unwilling to disclose it. At an age where they want to know everything, their curiosity is getting stronger and stronger.

It's just that Shikamaru didn't think it was good to ask Naruto directly, and Ino was worried that mentioning Sasuke in front of Naruto would make the stingy man angry again.

Only Choji tries to get information using a bag of potato chips.

Meeting the burning gazes of the three people, Naruto knew that this matter had probably spread throughout the ninja circle, and he suddenly felt a moment of silence for Sasuke.
