Naruto: I just want to show off but I'm too busy

At the dinner table, Naruto's family, Siyue and Akatsuki enjoyed the delicious food together.

Because her brother's friends and father were all present, Himawari felt happy from the bottom of her heart.

He talked a lot more than usual during the meal. Although Boruto still looked like he needed a beating, he was actually very happy to see his sister so happy.

However, the good times did not last long. Not long after the family was busy, Naruto's expression changed and he stood up from his seat.

Konoha Building, Hokage's Office.

Shikamaru reported the strange chakra in the village to Naruto's shadow clone.

This strange chakra is similar to the chakra that appeared in the recent ghost incident.

In other words, the mysterious ghost appeared again, and this time it was not a small fight before, but a large-scale operation.

Shikamaru originally wanted Naruto to spend time with his family at home, and he, the Hokage's advisor, would come forward to resolve the matter.

But how could Naruto agree?

So, in the Hokage's residence, Naruto, who had already changed into casual clothes, stood up, left the dining table, and put on the Hokage cloak again.

This scene is very familiar to Boruto. When his father puts on the Hokage cloak, it means that he has to turn back into the Seventh Hokage of Konoha to deal with those complicated affairs.

"Can't you finish this meal before leaving?" Boruto also stood up and looked directly at his father.

"Sorry Boruto, there was some trouble in the village and I had to..."

Boruto interrupted Naruto's explanation with a wave of his hand: "Enough, you are always like this, why do you have to ask dad for everything? Can't you entrust it to others?"

Hearing this, Naruto immediately wanted to give Boruto a good reason. In his concept, as a Hokage, he should do everything in his own right.

However, how could the angry Boruto listen to his father's "useless" preaching? He was not Hokage, nor did he want to become Hokage.

He covered his ears with his hands and ran out of the house without caring about other people's reactions.

"I hate Naruto!"

……

"Husband, Boruto..."

Hinata Ling looked out the door worriedly. At this time, Boruto's back had disappeared from her sight.

At this time, Siyue came over and said to Naruto seriously: "I'll go find him."

Naruto's eyes stayed on Siyue for a few seconds, and then he nodded solemnly: "Please, Siyue."

Mitsuki just smiled, bowed slightly to the Hinata spirit next to Naruto, and then left the Hokage's mansion.

Xiaoyue first caressed Sunflower's forehead, and then said in a gentle tone: "Be good, Xiaokui, my sister will come to play with you next time."

"Okay!" Sunflower nodded vigorously, then raised her eyes and smiled happily at Xiaoyue.

After comforting Sunflower, Xiaoyue stood up and came to Sunflower and praised: "The food cooked by my sister is really delicious!"

Ri Xiangling was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "Come here often when you have time, and I will cook your favorite dishes for you every day."

"must."

In the end, Akatsuki just looked at Naruto briefly, then opened the door and left Naruto's house.

……

On a high platform somewhere, Boruto was holding on to the handrail of the railing with both hands. His eyes seemed to be looking at the night view of Konoha, but in fact his eyes were empty. Anyone could see that he was very angry.

Mitsuyuki's voice sounded behind him: "I didn't expect that being Hokage would be so busy."

Boruto didn't look back, but still frowned: "In the past, he was willing to accompany me and Xiaokui at any time, but since he became Hokage, all he has in his eyes is work."

"No matter what excessive things he does to me and Xiaokui, he will always excuse it because he is Hokage."

"Because we are Hokage, we don't even go home; because we are Hokage, we don't even have time to spend with us. Even when we were sick, my mother accompanied us to the hospital!"

"Hokage, Hokage, Hokage... I have Naruto on my lips every day!" Boruto became more and more excited as he spoke, even grabbing the railing with a little more strength.

"What's so great about Naruto? What I hate the most is Naruto!"

"Really, but why do I feel that you like Hokage-sama very much?" Miyuki seemed not to notice that Boruto was angry, and continued to say things that Boruto didn't like to hear.

"That's not the case!" Boruto turned around and said dissatisfied: "If being Hokage means sacrificing the people closest to you for the sake of the village, then I don't want that kind of thing!"

Boruto turned around again, with his back to Mitsuki: "So I will never abandon anyone, I will do what dad can't do!"

"Are you asking me to do something that adults can't do..." Mitsuki no longer asked Boruto, but whispered to himself what Boruto had just said.

In his mind, he recalled the scene when he was released from the experimental vessel by Orochimaru. At that time, Orochimaru also told himself to let himself do things that adults cannot do.

Orochimaru once told himself that he placed his own beautiful ideals on himself.

He hopes that all the tragedies that happened to him will not happen to him. He hopes that one day he can do things that even he cannot do.

At this moment, Mitsuki seemed to have figured out a lot of things in an instant. He looked at Boruto and slowly said the reason for his visit today.

"Boruto, I'm here today to tell you something. I've been hesitant to say it, but now it seems it's better to say it."

Miyuki took a step forward and came to Boruto's side, looking into the distance like Boruto, and said in a calm tone: "I know who the mastermind of the ghost incident is..."

call out!

Xiaoyue, who had been quietly listening to the conversation between the two in the dark, raised her eyebrows when she heard Siyue say that he knew who the mastermind of the ghost incident was.

She stopped listening because she already knew who this person was.

Before Siyue and Boruto could make any move, she left here first.

She was going to do what she had to do.

Dad said that when dealing with friends you recognize, you should lend a helping hand in the appropriate place and help appropriately.

The squad leader is a friend he recognizes, and maybe now is the time to help.

……

On the other side, the investigation captain Sai also discovered that Sumire Sasaki was the mastermind of the ghost incident.

He led his people to find Sumire Kaki before Boruto and Akatsuki.

It would have been easy to deal with a child with his skills, but he didn't expect that the Minotaur King engraved on the back of Jin Sumire would actually activate it on his own.

With a flash of purple light, Nue, a psychic beast from another world, appeared in the forest outside Konoha.

Because the difference in stature was too great, Sai and other members of the reconnaissance team could only stay away from the big guy temporarily and wait for the support of other ninjas.

Sumire Kake looked back at Nue, and then took the opportunity to evacuate.
