Konoha: Surpassing Expectations Today, Believe It!

Chapter 12: 11



"Naruto, tell Grandpa Hokage, why have you suddenly become so hardworking recently?"

"Is life not easy for you?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stroked Naruto's head, feeling guilty in his heart.

Remember before, he didn't care about Naruto's quality of life at all.

His allowance was paid at the minimum standard.

The house was also the worst single dormitory.

Even for Naruto's birthday, giving him a kunai was considered a great gift.

Glancing furtively at Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression, Naruto chuckled secretly.

The Third Hokage is probably trying to take this opportunity to make amends.

But...

Excuse me.

I, Naruto, do not intend to give you a chance.

Nowadays.

I just want to use innocence to defeat evil!

Acting skills can also be taken to the next level!

"Um, no, Grandpa Hokage."

Naruto shook his head, eyes twinkling.

"Actually, the reason I work so hard is to help Grandpa Hokage share some pressure."

"Sharing... the pressure?"

"What do you mean?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen was puzzled.

Naruto restrained his expression, looked at the bamboo sticks on the cart, and explained with some reflective thoughts: "Grandpa Hokage is the most important person in the village, and there are so many things to be busy with every day, but even so, Grandpa Hokage still didn't forget to take care of me and has been sending people to protect me in secret..."

"..."

Hearing Naruto say that, Sarutobi Hiruzen just felt as if someone slapped his face!

It stung hot!

Secretly protect...

Goodness, that's obviously surveillance, but you think it's covert protection?

"Although it was just covert protection, the work attitude of those two Anbu ninjas was too serious, so I educated them."

"Otherwise, it would be a waste of wages and Grandpa Hokage's expectations for them."

"It's the same reason I come out to sell dango."

"The village has only recently experienced a few wars, and the Nine Tails Rebellion, so there's not much money to begin with."

"Just paying the ninja's salary is already very difficult, and I have to take care of unproductive children like me."

"Obviously, I don't make any contributions, but I still take more than 1,000 ryo in living expenses every month. I really feel ashamed."

"So, I wondered if I could lighten the burden on the village."

"I don't have other talents, and I haven't become a Jōnin yet, so I can only do some trivial jobs."

"But I'm not willing to sell dango here for the rest of my life."

"I want to be a ninja!"

"Running is a preparation for becoming a ninja in the future."

"Grandpa Hokage, I want to be a useful person, I want to share my worries for Grandpa Hokage, I want to inherit the Will of Fire, I want to be someone recognized by Grandpa Hokage and everyone!"

Naruto spoke word for word.

The words were sincere and clear!

Simply, they sounded as genuine as the real thing!

But at this time, the Third Hokage, how could he resist?

Naruto takes one bite at a time, calling him Grandpa Hokage, the innocence, kindness, hard work, and motivation shown...

It was like loud slaps one by one, hitting him in the face crazily! ! !

Seriously.

Sarutobi Hiruzen has also experienced countless significant events in his life, with glories and setbacks.

There have been many uncomfortable times.

For example, when an apprentice betrayed him or when his wife died.

But not once.

As uncomfortable as it is now!

Obviously, there was no real beating.

Obviously, what Naruto said were all positive words.

But it feels worse than losing a battle!

One slap, two slaps.

Hundreds of slaps slapped him down, making him almost unable to lift his head!

...

There was silence for more than two minutes.

Sarutobi Hiruzen finally regained his composure.

Looking at the innocent blond boy in front of him, Sarutobi Hiruzen clenched his fists.

He pinched the bridge of his nose and forced himself to remain calm.

"Naruto, from now on, if you have any difficulties, please tell Grandpa!"

"Also, I will let the people in the village know, and no one will discriminate against you in the future!"

It's clear.

After Naruto's Oscar-worthy performance, Sarutobi Hiruzen has completely broken down.

Him at this time.

There are only two words in his heart:

Guilty!

Ashamed, blaming himself!

Naruto has the heart of a child, but what is he responding to?

Suspicion, alienation...

I am ashamed of the name Hokage!

It must be made up!

Do everything possible to make up for the damage done to Naruto!

Seeing the Third Hokage's ashamed look, Naruto's expression was dull.

In his heart, he snorted disdainfully.

Humph, Naruto the idiot.

You see, isn't the problem easily solved?

I really don't understand you Jinchūriki.

As long as you use your brain a little bit and have a relationship with the most senior people in the village, won't your living environment improve immediately?

Even if you don't use scheming like him, coercion and temptation are fine!

You said that you have endured to the limit, and you will run away if you are bullied again. Do you think the high-level people in the village can still sit still?

"Thank you, Grandpa Hokage!"

"I will definitely redouble my efforts to become a useful person to the village!"

...

Going home.

As usual, after arranging the tasks for several clones, Naruto immediately turned on the system and started the lottery draw.

"Well, today's harvest is not bad."

Looking at the involution value in the property bar, Naruto smiled faintly.

It appears that the Third Hokage, too, is someone who can be influenced.

In the future, I will spend more time with the Third Hokage and emotionally move him too!

"Okay, system, don't waste time, let's start the lottery draw!"

The wheels of the system turn.

Three seconds later.

The pointer stops.

[1. All Attribute Chakra]

[Note: It includes the five basic attributes of wind, fire, thunder, earth, and water, as well as the yin and yang attributes.

As for the bloodline limit or the elimination of the bloodline limit, there needs to be corresponding ninjutsu guidance, as long as you have the ninjutsu, you can use it.]

[2. Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique]

[Note: The signature ninjutsu of the Uchiha clan, extremely destructive.]

"Hmm?"

"It's actually Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique?"

Naruto's eyes dimmed slightly, not because of disappointment, but rather because of surprise.

Because for the original Naruto.

From head to toe, there is only one ninjutsu – Rasengan!

Make dango if you have nothing to do, and make dango if you have something to do!

If you are undecided, just throw a Rasengan at it!

If not, give it two shots.

If not, then add attributes!

Naruto really couldn't figure out why, with so many ninjutsu in the whole ninja world, he didn't learn more?

There is no upper limit talent plug-in; it is not well developed and utilized at all!

"Great Fireball Technique should be the first offensive ninjutsu I have mastered, right?"

"But it doesn't seem to be very powerful."

"I have to find a way to improve it, and turn this Great Fireball Technique into a Forbidden Technique."

Naruto rested his chin and began to think about countermeasures.

In principle.

The power of ninjutsu has no upper limit.

What kind of power a ninjutsu can unleash is related to the strength of the user.

The most obvious one is Fire Style.

If it were performed by ordinary people, this would be an ordinary C-level ninjutsu.

But if Uchiha Madara uses it, it's an S-rank ninjutsu!

So.

Even the most ordinary Great Fireball Technique, as long as it is continuously honed, its final power can exceed its original power!

"Currently, my Chakra has reached its limit, and I can only create 6 clones at most."

"If it's all about practicing the Great Fireball Technique, there's no way to do anything else."

"So..."

Naruto's mouth curved into a sly smile.

Yes.

He's about to approach the Nine Tails in his stomach.
