After Naruto traveled through time as a tutor

"Becoming Hokage is not easy. Strong strength and rich combat experience are certain. Leadership and gathering people's hearts are also necessary. Smart minds and political means are also essential. The most important thing is that you must be able to Treat the village as your own home, treat everyone in Konoha as your own children, protect them, and shoulder the responsibility of so many lives. Answer me..."

"Can you do it?" Naruto gently stroked Konohamaru's head. Although he was smiling, his firm and powerful voice made Konohamaru feel pressured inexplicably.

Konohamaru thought about Naruto's words. Although he was only eight years old, he had been trained as a candidate for Hokage since he was a child. He could still barely understand Naruto's words. Naruto was right. None of these things he could You can do it. So grandpa is so powerful?

Although he understood, he didn't want to admit it, because he was very eager to gain everyone's recognition and recognition of him as a person, not the grandson of the Hokage.

Naruto looked at Konohamaru who was stubborn and silent. From his expression, he understood what Konohamaru was thinking. After all, he was still a child and it was easier to understand.

"I know you are not willing to give in, and I also understand your unwillingness, because like you, everyone knows not Uzumaki Naruto, but Nine...cough!" Naruto's eyes flashed, and he almost said what he couldn't say. He said, "I also acted too hastily, but it was of no use. In the end, I tried my best to get one person's recognition, which was already very hard. Finally, I ask you, do you have this awareness?" Yet?"

"Awakening?" Konohamaru asked doubtfully.

"You have to understand one thing first. Do you want to become Hokage, or do you want to be recognized by everyone?"

"What's the difference?"

"The difference is that becoming Hokage is not necessarily required to gain everyone's recognition, but to become Hokage, gaining everyone's recognition is only an important part of it. People who do not gain everyone's recognition cannot become Hokage." Naruto He looked at Konohamaru intently, "What is your real goal? Which is your real 'path', do you know it?"

Konohamaru looked at Naruto's blue eyes that reflected him. At this moment, the owner of these eyes truly regarded him as a person of equal status, not a child. What this person saw in his eyes was Konohamaru, not the Hokage's grandson.

This man is right, what is his goal, his 'Tao'?Just for everyone's approval?Was his Hokage really just talk?

No, no, he is putting the cart before the horse, but what he wants to be is a Hokage who is respected by others like his grandfather, not just to gain everyone's recognition. Although there is that reason, his goal is to become Hokage, even if this path 'More remote, more rugged.

"I want to become Hokage, and become a Hokage recognized by others!" Konohamaru's eyes became determined, and there seemed to be a cluster of flames burning slowly inside.

"Is that so -" Naruto took a few steps back and looked at Konohamaru with a different look, "As an opponent, I would like to remind you one last thing. If you want to gain everyone's recognition and get the title of Hokage, it is simply impossible. There are no shortcuts!”

"Opponent?!" Konohamaru looked at Naruto who was already interested in fighting against him, "I won't be your follower anymore. From now on, you will be my competitor."

"..." I almost forgot about it if I didn't remind him. He has never promised to be the boss, but this kid is indeed a good opponent. If you don't pay attention, you might really lose. After all, His identity is there.

In fact, he said those words at the beginning to make the kid quit. It was not that he was afraid of multiple opponents, but it would be boring if the opponent was not qualified. Although it is easy to clean up flies, it still makes people sick. Only in this way did he have the will to fight and it was interesting.

"Kit, work hard. I will become an official genin tomorrow. I have to be one step ahead of you. I am looking forward to the day when we will compete for the title of Hokage. Don't let me look forward to it in vain, Sarutobi Konoha Maru!" Naruto put one hand in his pocket, waved to Konohamaru with the other, and left quickly.

The third generation looked at Naruto who had grown a lot in the crystal ball and smiled happily. Although he knew very well that Naruto was just about to embark on the road to becoming a ninja, the saplings had already begun to grow, and the will of fire would continue to be passed down. While these children are fully grown, he cannot fall, and he can hold on for a few more years.

Ebisu, who was ignored by everyone: Don't leave, I'm still freezing here, Master... Hokage-sama, help me QAQ

After that, Ebisu froze there for a day, and then he was sick for three whole days. For this reason, Konohamaru admired Naruto even more. Finally, he no longer had to listen to this useless teacher saying those big principles every day. It was simply unbearable. Bravo.

Naruto said that he was innocent. In fact, this illusion is easy to solve. Only you have the intention to break it. After all, after he left, the illusion had no effect. It was completely a psychological problem. If it was Kakashi, he wouldn't be able to freeze at all. Minutes, there won’t be any hallucination sequelae after that. Isn’t this person a jounin?How could you be fooled by such a little trick?

"Hey, why isn't Kakashi-sensei here yet?" Sakura sighed in boredom. If Naruto was still noisy before, since they graduated, Naruto has changed a lot. It was like she was a different person. When he was free, he was either reading scrolls or sleeping. He didn't even give her a look. Sometimes, Naruto was just a shadow clone and no one knew where he went.

Needless to say, Sasuke just leaned on the bridge with an indifferent expression, and because of the exams a few days ago, she felt embarrassed to see Naruto now, let alone talk to him.

"Hey, good morning everyone." Kakashi suddenly appeared on the bridge, looking at the kissing paradise in his hand.

"Kakashi-sensei, you're late again." Sakura complained.

"Well, sensei has lost his way on the road of life." Kakashi scratched his head indifferently, without any embarrassment at all, "Let's go to the Hokage Tower to pick up the mission."

"Hmph!" Sasuke took the lead and ran towards the Hokage Tower, followed closely by Sakura, but Naruto said something softly as he passed by Kakashi.

Kakashi froze on the spot, and the pupil in the only exposed eye shrank rapidly. After a long time, Kakashi smiled and cursed as if nothing happened: "That brat!"

But judging from the faint arc on the mask, there was more relief in the smile. Really, as a teacher, I was taught a lesson by a student. If others found out, it would be really embarrassing, even though the words were very embarrassing. It's hurtful, but it hits the nail on the head.

On the way to the Hokage Tower, Kakashi couldn't help but think of what Naruto said to him, 'Kakashi-sensei, as the son of Konoha White Fang and the apprentice of the Fourth Hokage, is really timid. '

Naruto thought of Kakashi's excuse for being late just now, and what Kyuubi had told him about Kakashi's past. It had to be said that it was a very painful past. Losing something after gaining something was too cruel for a child. However, Kakashi carried it all by himself. Most people would never be better than this man. He is really a very strong person, but he can no longer find his way forward, and people Once there is no direction to move forward, it is like having no soul, and only a body is left.

"You are not worthy of being my teacher because you are so timid! You know very well in your heart, right? Kakashi-sensei, are you lost on the road of life because of the past, or are you afraid of the road ahead and don't want to Move forward." Different from Naruto's slightly mocking words, there was a wry smile on his lips. He understood the man's pain, so these words had only a minimal effect, but he said everything he could say, and it was considered A little compensation.

Naruto looked back at Kakashi's lonely back, and he understood that there was no one left by his side.Looking at the endless sky, I sighed. In fact, this man was just a poor person who had trouble living in the past.

When Naruto and Kakashi caught up with Sasuke and Sakura and arrived at the Hokage's room, Classes [-] and [-] were also there.

Asuma looked at the three Narutos standing in front of Kakashi with pity. It was so pitiful that they were assigned to Kakashi. Although Kakashi was good at strength, he was too lazy. Can he really lead them well? ?

Yuhi Kurenai greeted Kakashi with a smile, but her words were not as beautiful as her smile, "Kakashi, these are the three students in your class, tsk tsk tsk, you guy actually passed Your trial is really awesome! No one has ever been able to pass your trial!"

"Hong, you're talking as if my trial is terrible. Isn't it similar to yours?"

"Well, it's really not scary." Naruto paused deliberately in front of everyone's surprised eyes. "It's just a bit of revenge that made our trial a few more difficult. Don't you think so?" The latter sentence was asked to Sasuke. Sakura's.

"Yes!" Sister Ying nodded seriously.

"Hmph!" This was Sasuke's disdain.

Hong smiled and said: "Kakashi, it seems that you are not a bad person. Even the students who have just met you have begun to dislike you."

"Kungri-sensei, don't say that. Kakashi-sensei is like this because he is older. Isn't it what some people often say; old and young, old and young, the older you get, the more you look like a child." Naruto said and then waved. He looked like he was thinking, and finally seemed to confirm the conclusion, nodding seriously.
