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

Chapter 88 088. Naruto’s truth and Uzumaki Village (second update, please order first)

In the past, when he returned to the village, Jiraiya would always go to the bathhouse to relax. While relieving stress, he also collected materials needed for novel creation, which was regarded as his self-reward after performing dangerous missions.

But this time Jiraiya was in no mood to relax, his mind was occupied with thinking about how to find Naruto's whereabouts.

Judging from the information given by the old man, Naruto's scope of activities after running away was very large, covering almost half of the Fire Country. He was proficient in transformation and shadow clone techniques, and was able to deceive the ANBU elites who were following him and find Naruto's absolute best. Not an easy task.

However, for Jiraiya, finding Naruto was not the most difficult thing.

Ninja actions always leave clues, and he has carried out countless S-level missions over the years.

What really gave him a headache was how to convince Naruto to willingly stay in the ninja school to study, otherwise even if he brought Naruto back, Naruto would run away again, and he couldn't keep an eye on Naruto all the time.

As for adopting Danzo's suggestion, placing a curse seal on Naruto and restricting his travels, Jiraiya had never had such an idea.

Naruto is Minato's son, his disciple, and the successor of the Will of Fire.

Regardless of these, even other ninjas in the village will never treat them as tools that are thrown away casually. This goes against the will of fire and the beliefs he implements.

After flipping through the information scroll, Jiraiya found the familiar name Kakashi among the dense words.

Kakashi is a student of Minato. He has protected Naruto as a senior ninja in the past few years. He is one of the few ninjas who is close to Naruto. From him, he may be able to understand the reason why Naruto ran away.

After walking for a few minutes, Jiraiya arrived at the corner of the village and saw the Hatake family's mansion near the grove.

Compared with more than ten years ago, the Hatake family's mansion was not much different. The only change was the owner of the mansion, from Sakumo White Fang, who was frightened by Sunagakure, to the current clone ninja Kakashi.

Fortunately, Kakashi did not go out on a mission today. Instead, he lay on the tatami and watched "Intimate Paradise" leisurely. The author was a visiting guest, Jiraiya, one of the three ninja heroes.

After hearing the footsteps behind him, Kakashi knew someone was approaching him and frowned.

The ninja must remain alert at all times. The enemy will approach him in any way, but the opponent's pace is very slow and his breath is somewhat familiar to him.

"Kakashi, I didn't expect that you have quite good taste, and you actually know how to appreciate this novel that is suitable for both refined and popular tastes. It records the customs and customs of the ninja world. It is a rare and good book."

Jiraiya walked up to Kakashi and boasted.

Kakashi's old face turned red. When did Kissing Heaven have any literary value? This book is obviously both colorful and very violent. How many adult ninjas these days still read serious books?

But after discovering that the visitor was Jiraiya, Kakashi stopped his desire to complain, stood up and said, "Jiraiya-sama, you came to me not to hold a fan meeting."

Jiraiya stopped joking and his expression became serious:

"I'm here for Naruto. The old man asked me to find Naruto and bring him back to the village, but before leaving, I want to understand the reason why Naruto left the village..."

"After all, if Naruto is taken back by force, he will run away again in the future out of resentment."

Kakashi put down the kissing paradise, took a deep look at Jiraiya, and said: "Jiraiya-sama, I don't think you can bring Naruto back. Naruto's defection is not a whim."

Jiraiya was a little confused, but that was exactly why he was looking for Kakashi.

Kakashi did not show off and told Jiraiya everything that happened to Naruto over the years. Jiraiya's face became increasingly ugly, and finally turned into a heavy sigh.

He was discriminated against as a demon fox when he was young, so he could only buy the supplies for survival with a tough attitude.

Under this situation, Naruto was still willing to help the bullied eldest daughter of the Hyuga clan and drive away the evil children. It was obvious that he had the seeds of the will of fire.

But before this seed had time to sprout, it died amid the tide of malice.

Even Minato's old subordinates launched an attack on young Naruto out of dissatisfaction, not to mention the malicious slander from the villagers over the years.

However, after Naruto was treated as a demon fox, the old man was still unwilling to disclose Naruto's life experience.

Jiraiya believed that the old man's actions were not too wrong. At Naruto's current age, if he knew the truth, he would probably never recover. It would be better to live in a lie and spend a childhood that gradually improved and got better.

Jiraiya's silence made Kakashi aware of his thoughts, and he revealed the truth unceremoniously: "Jiraiya-sama, Naruto told me before leaving that he actually knew that he was a Jinchuriki. I am the son of the Yondaime."

"I suspect that Naruto has been waiting for the truth, but lost patience during the long wait, so he chose to leave the village and travel around the ninja world."

"And the reason why I chose the day of the Uchiha tragedy may be because I feel for Uchiha."

After hearing these words, Jiraiya nodded, and his expression became solemn. The core of Naruto's escape incident was the Third Hokage. It was the old man's deception and indifference that prompted Naruto to choose to leave.

Just like a broken mirror is difficult to restore, the bond between Naruto and the village may be difficult to restore as before.

"Jiraiya-sama, that's all I know. If you want to know more, you need to go to Naruto's friends. Although they haven't graduated yet, with Naruto as an example, they can't put it aside." They treat it like a child.”

"No need, knowing so much is enough for me."

Jiraiya rejected Kakashi's proposal. He already knew enough and it was time to prepare to go.

After Jiraiya left, Kakashi picked up the make-out paradise on the ground, covered his face with it, closed his eyes and prepared to take a nap.

Since that day, he had lost the idea of ​​working seriously and had no intention of reporting to the ANBU. He had returned to the laziness he had been a few years ago.

On the one hand, this is because of Naruto's departure, and on the other hand, it is because of Uchiha.

Although the higher-ups claimed that Uchiha suffered the genocide of Itachi, he, who had worked with Itachi, sensed something was wrong. It was impossible for Uchiha to be exterminated so easily, and it was impossible for the higher-ups to be unaware of such a big thing.

So what is the truth hidden in it? It’s worth pondering.

However, what has the greatest impact on Kakashi is what is the truth after Naruto's words before leaving, and why Naruto is sure that he will leave because of the truth.

This reminded him of the life-changing events of his childhood.

His father, Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumo, finally chose to commit suicide because he was criticized by his companions for abandoning his mission.

Over the years, he had always believed that his father committed suicide because he gave up the mission and chose his companions. Later, Obito made him understand that the mission was as important as his companions, and neither could be given up easily.

But Naruto's experience of having his life experience concealed made him couldn't help but wonder whether the truth about his father had also been concealed.

What is the truth hidden by the top management, and what is the reason for his father's death?

Kakashi tried not to let himself think about it, but in the dead of night, such thoughts would always come up. It seemed that exploring the truth had become one of the meanings of his life.

So, should I take the initiative to find Naruto and find the truth hidden by the senior officials?

Kakashi himself didn't know what to do.

…

Jiraiya only stayed in Konoha for half a day.

After meeting the Third Hokage and learning information about Naruto from Kakashi, he hurriedly left the village.

Before leaving, Jiraiya specially left a letter and asked the nearby ANBU to send it to the Third Hokage. The ANBU did not dare to neglect and hurried towards the Hokage building.

A few minutes later, Jiraiya's letter appeared on the Hokage's desk.

The Third Hokage opened the letter, which contained a lot of greetings. After reading more than half of it, Jiraiya expressed his thoughts in the letter.

Jiraiya believed that Naruto was not suitable to continue to be trained in the village.

After he finds Naruto, he will take him to practice in various places in the ninja world. While increasing his knowledge, he will also make the people in the village forget about Naruto's identity as a demon fox and only remember that there was a prankster Naruto before.

As time goes by, sooner or later Naruto will be able to accept the village and the will of fire.

After reading it, the Third Hokage sighed softly.

Let the Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki train outside all year round...

Jiraiya really posed a problem for himself. The two advisors and Danzo would definitely quarrel with him.

However, he is really not suitable to meet Naruto. There is a crack between them that is difficult to repair. From this point of view, it is a good thing for Jiraiya to take Naruto to experience after finding him.

After some thought, the Third Hokage agreed to Jiraiya's request.

Anyway, Jiraiya is also his apprentice, not Danzo who is buried deep in the darkness. If he leaves it to Jiraiya, at least he doesn't have to worry about the jinchūriki being crooked.

During the time that Jiraiya was away, he could also start cultivating a new heir.

…

In the Kingdom of Whirlpool, in Whirlpool Village where everything is waiting to be renovated.

A full month has passed since Naruto waited.

The remaining members of the Uchiha clan gradually adapted to the life in Uzushio Village. Compared with before, although they lost the generous treatment of the police force, they finally gained the freedom and peace they dreamed of.

In this nearly isolated Uzumaki Village, they do not have to face rejection from the top management, nor are they treated differently by the villagers.

The only thing that needs to be faced is the nearly deserted Uzushio Village. If you want to restore the glory of the Uchiha clan on this land, it will take at least several months or even half a year of construction.

But compared to being exterminated by high-level officials, Uchiha can still accept such a result.

After all, except for the leading voice in the clan, they are all ninjas who have opened the Sharingan eye, and most of the clan are ordinary people who have no qualifications to open the eye. They just want to live a peaceful life, whether they stay in Konoha or in Uzushio Village.

Naruto, who transformed into Dr. Menma, was wandering around the village, enjoying the tranquility amid the busyness.

Looking at the roads and docks under construction in the distance, he felt a sense of accomplishment. Perhaps he hated destruction and decay and liked new things that exuded vitality.

Moreover, Kyuubi didn't hate this place either, and was just sleeping soundly in the sealed space.

After stopping for a while, Naruto walked towards the office in Uzushio Village. Before he could open the door, he heard the sound of Kamon and Shisui arguing.

One side of them represents the local forces, and the other side represents the outside Uchiha, and they argue endlessly about how to develop the village.

Huomen believes that priority should be given to developing ports for foreign trade, while Shisui believes that ninja schools and mission centers should be built and developed towards the model of a ninja village.

After seeing Naruto appear, the two stopped arguing. Naruto is now the backbone of Uzushio Village.

No matter in terms of construction guidance or hard power, they are not as good as this old man of the Uzumaki clan. The reason why they dare to develop is because of the other party's unfathomable power.

Two updates of 6,000 words. It will continue tomorrow. For a salty fish like me, it will kill me. I hope you all like it.

By the way, I almost died in Sanjiang, so sad.
