I'm Uzumaki Naruto, I don't need approval

Chapter 13 013. Kyuubi’s favorability towards you increases

The play-like fight ended quickly, and Naruto, Shikamaru, and Choji rested with their backs against the big tree.

Their future achievements may surpass that of most ninjas, but right now they are just brats, and any genin can easily defeat them.

Choji said while eating: "Naruto, you are really strong. You can even catch up with the senior students of Ninja School. Shikamaru and I are not as good as you."

Shikamaru next to him looked at Naruto with a surprised look on his face. Even though he and Choji teamed up, they failed to defeat Naruto.

Naruto smiled, and he understood his own strength. He had surpassed most of his peers, but it was still not enough in front of real ninjas.

However, this is without using the power of Nine Tails.

Once he hands over his body to Kyuubi, and goes berserk, the jounin will not be enough to look at him. He must be a strong kage level or an elite among several jounin.

In order to thank the two sparring partners Shikamaru and Choji, Naruto took out a few rice balls and fried chicken from his backpack.

The moment he saw the fried chicken, Choci's eyes lit up. After taking the fried chicken, he started to chew it, making a clicking sound.

Shikamaru reluctantly took the rice ball, as if he had lost all worldly desires.

After finishing one chicken drumstick, Choci took another one from Naruto, as happy as a child: "Naruto, the food you brought is so delicious. If I can eat these every day, I am willing to spar with you every day." .”

Naruto smiled like an old father and left all the remaining fried chicken to Choji.

He brought the rice ball to Shikamaru and sat on the grass with him, staring at the forest, bridge and flowing water in the distance in a daze.

"Another calm day..."

Shikamaru sighed, and then he noticed Naruto next to him: "Why are you here? Did Choji eat all your food? He has always had such a bad habit."

"That's not true. I just came here to keep you company. After all, you and Choji are the third and fourth friends I have met."

Naruto pulled up a root of grass, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and said.

Shikamaru gave a perfunctory smile, picked up the root in his mouth and said, "I thought Choji and I would be the first and second, but I didn't expect it was a step too late. Your first friend should be the little girl from the Hinata family. Bar."

Naruto pretended to be very surprised: "Shikamaru, how do you know about Hinata and me?"

Shikamaru lay back on the grass and said disapprovingly: "Because when Hinata was bullied that day, Choji and I were on the opposite road. Originally Choji was ready to become friends with you at that time, but I refused. .”

"why?"

"Afraid of disturbing your hero's rescue of the beauty..."

"In that case, I have to thank you...thank you for giving me the opportunity to be a hero and save the beauty."

Seeing Shikamaru lying on the grass, Naruto also learned in a decent way. Lying on the grass, he looked at the sky and the flowing clouds, and at the same time asked the Kyuubi in his body:

"Big fox, is the third-generation old man spying on me?"

"No, kid, don't always think about bossing me around. I'm not your nanny. You can handle your own affairs by yourself."

After hearing Kyuubi's words, Naruto felt relieved and said to Shikamaru: "Speaking of which, you and Choji are probably not just friends with me. Your sudden appearance is too strange."

"It's my father's wish. I don't know if my father has received orders from others."

After a pause, Shikamaru continued: "I hate this kind of troublesome job. I originally wanted to deal with it casually, but after learning about your past, I decided to become a true friend with you."

"It seems that the charm of my demon fox is really great, and there are still people who are willing to be friends."

Naruto had something to say, and his eyes when looking at Shikamaru became cold: "I am becoming more and more curious about who my parents are, and how worthy of the attention of so many important people."

Shikamaru's expression changed, but he quickly recovered: "I don't know this either, but please believe in the village. Since those village dignitaries do this, they should have their considerations."

"So you just acquiesce to my identity as a demon fox and don't care if I'm bullied by the villagers?"

Naruto's tone gradually returned to calmness, but in Shikamaru's view, Naruto was more terrifying now than before, like a volcano about to erupt.

As he said that, Naruto showed a relaxed smile again:

"But it doesn't matter anymore. Those villagers no longer dare to bully me, otherwise they will taste the curse of the demon fox. I have made friends like you and Choji again. Sooner or later, those unpleasantness will be forgotten."

"That's what it says in Will of Fire, isn't it?"

"You're right..." Shikamaru looked deeply at Naruto, overturning his previous understanding of Naruto.

He used to think that Naruto had a lot of darkness hidden in his heart due to the bullying from the villagers, but now it seems that in addition to darkness, Naruto's heart has more of a dismissive attitude.

Naruto, are he really the same age as him? Or maybe he was too well protected by his father.

At this time, Shikamaru saw Naruto getting up from the grass and asked curiously: "Naruto, where are you going? Aren't you playing with us?"

Naruto said without looking back: "Of course I'm going fishing. I just saw a lot of fish in the river. If you are willing to come out and play with me, I have to show you my skills."

Shikamaru was silent, but he still followed, along with Choji.

A few hours later, Naruto, Shikamaru, and Choji lit a fire by the river. Next to the fire were grilled fish skewered by branches, with sizzling hot oil on them.

Naruto ate the grilled fish and looked at Shikamaru and Choji, smiling from the bottom of his heart.

The Kyuubi in the body said with disdain: "The Third Generation has not been monitoring you for a long time. These two brats must be the Third Generation's spies. You are still smiling so happily. Are you being careless?"

"But the happiness at this moment is real... I feel that I can also compare with them."

At this time, Naruto seemed to have thought of something and smiled evilly: "Nine-tailed fox, are you also greedy when you watch us eating grilled fish? If I have a chance, I will bring you something to eat."

Kyuubi said disdainfully: "I don't covet these appetites, and don't forget, I am sealed in your body, why did you give me the grilled fish?"

"That's right..." Naruto was convinced and turned around to leave the sealed space.

But just before Kyuubi showed a lonely expression, Naruto suddenly turned around, holding a few skewers of grilled fish in his hand, came to the iron gate, handed it to him and said:

"This is for you. Since you can use chakra to influence my emotions, I can also use chakra to record the taste of grilled fish, turn it into food in the sealed space, and share the delicious food with you."

"I said that I won't be interested in food and drink..."

Kyuubi shook his head proudly, looking very courageous.

Naruto smiled and put down the grilled fish, and wisely left the sealed space. After returning to the real world, a crisp prompt sounded in his ears:

"Nine Lama's favorability towards you reaches approval, and you gain 'Malicious Sense Level 1'."
