The genius of Naruto is a bit ordinary.

Even though the killing intent was not directed at him, he still couldn't help but tremble in his heart. This was also a shortcoming of strong perception, and it was also easy to sense some strange things.

But fortunately, Yamanaka Haiichi has been through so much, so he won't be scared.

However, with this murderous intention... Yamanaka Haiyi's eyes changed when he looked at Xia Li. What did the other party do after graduating early?

Originally, Yamanaka Haiichi was a little dissatisfied with Xia Li. After all, his daughter's whole mind was focused on him. As a result, Xia Li disappeared since a year ago.

During this period of time, the girl Ino could clearly see that her interest was not very high and she talked a lot less, but she was practicing harder.

When Yamanaka Hai saw this, he felt pain in his heart. You can imagine how dissatisfied he was with Xia Li. Even if you are going on a mission, you should come and see Ino when you come back!

Yamanaka Haiichi still remembered that his daughter asked him to find information about the other party. Yamanaka Haiichi agreed at the time, but she couldn't find her at all.

He even learned from Sandai that Xia Li was not dead and would send gifts to his family. But he couldn't find this person at all, which was a piece of information in itself. Yamanaka Haiichi also guessed that the other person should be among the ANBU.

However, there was absolutely nothing he could do. His authority was not up to the level of investigating ANBU, so Xia Li was not found in the end. Yamanaka Haiichi still remembered Ino's disappointed look at that time.

When he thought of this, some anger welled up in Yamanaka Haiichi's heart.

He didn't expect to meet Xia Li on the Hokage's side.

However, when he actually saw Xia Li, he fell silent after feeling the strong blood color and murderous intent on her body.

Maybe the other party was right not to approach Ino like this?

"Well, it's me, Uncle Shanzhong, long time no see." Xia Li said with a smile.

"Well, long time no see...are you going home?" Yamanaka Haiichi asked.

"Yes, the mission is completed, of course I have to go home." Xia Li said with a somewhat complicated tone and a deep voice.

Immediately, Yamanaka Haiichi also understood that the other party had probably withdrawn from the ANBU. He had never returned home before, otherwise why he had not found any news about Xia Li...

"Aren't you going to see Ino?" Yamanaka Haiichi finally sighed and asked. Maybe the other party also had his own difficulties. Seeing Xia Li's current appearance, he couldn't blame him anymore.

"..." Suddenly, Xia Li fell silent, then showed a wry smile, pointed at herself, looked at Yamanaka Haiyi, and said, "Uncle Haiyi, you should be able to notice that my current state is really suitable for getting close. Ino?"

Yamanaka Haiichi also fell silent, but he also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Since he still has such a clear understanding, it means that the other party is not bound by this murderous intention. As long as he does not continue to kill, it will be sooner or later to break free. things.

Moreover, Yamanaka Haiichi also understood that the reason why the other party did not even return home was probably because he was afraid that his somewhat uncontrollable state would affect his family.

Thinking of this, Yamanaka Haiichi's inner anger also calmed down. If he could still think about his family and Ino in this state, it would already show the other person's character. In this case, what else could he be dissatisfied with.

"Go back quickly. You haven't been home for a long time. Spending more time with your family will be good for your current situation. Also, remember to look for our Ino more often. She has always missed you." Yamanaka Haiichi His tone softened.

"Yes." Xia Li nodded. He naturally knew this, but it was good for him, but good for Sinai? Is it good for Ino? He would not do such a thing by continuing to share his negative emotions with the people he cares about.

Now that he had quit the ANBU, it was almost guaranteed that the murderous intent in his body would not increase anymore, and there was no reason to avoid it, so he decided to go home.

After that, Xia Li said goodbye to Haiyi Shanzhong and continued walking towards home.

Yamanaka Haiichi looked at Xia Li's back and showed a smile. If Ino could really get together with her, it would be pretty good. Moreover, he also knew Xia Li's worries and whispered.

"But Ino also wants to become a ninja!"

Then, Yamanaka Haiichi also turned around and walked towards the Hokage's office.

…………

Along the way, Xia Li felt a sense of relaxation for the first time in a long time. Here, his spirit finally no longer needed to be tense all the time, and his perception no longer needed to be too high-intensity, just enough for daily life.

Just by walking slowly like this, Xia Li felt a sense of satisfaction that she had not felt in the previous year and a half.

In the past year and a half, Xia Li has killed so many people, but what Xia Li can guarantee is that he has never killed just for the sake of killing, but has mastered all his abilities in battle.

The same was true for the rescue mission, because there would definitely be enemies in such a mission, so he was forced to participate against the third generation's wishes.

Just practice, without actual combat, is not enough, and now, Xia Li's shortcomings in this area have finally been made up for, and the price is his current state.

But Xia Li felt that it should still be worth it. After all, he was confident that he would break away from this state, but it would only take some time. Even if these time were included, it would be worth it in exchange for such rich combat experience.

And the most important thing is that as long as he doesn't take action and continue killing, his current state will actually have little impact on him, it just looks a bit bluffing.

His own spirit is strong enough, and coupled with the state of emptiness and darkness, as long as he does not continue to kill in the near future, then nothing will happen. The reason for bluffing people is that that amount is enough to distort the will of most people. .

Now, the actual combat is basically over, so what’s next?

Xia Li knew that he should continue to settle and accumulate energy, but how to settle?

Continue to practice? Ninjutsu? fencing? Or... magic?

When Xia Li was thinking, what he didn't notice was that a familiar figure spotted him, and the other person's short golden hair also proved his identity.

It's not surprising that Xia Li didn't recognize Naruto. His perception was aimed at chakra, and Naruto didn't use ninjutsu at this time and didn't extract much chakra. The amount was also within the normal range. Xia Li could know where there was chakra. There is a person with chakra, but I don't know who he is. As for movement, in this village where people come and go, it would be too difficult for Xia Li to sense movement.

Naruto was running wildly on the street, venting his joy that he had finally passed the exam for the last time. In this way, he would be one step closer to everyone recognizing him, right? !

He will keep running around the village, wearing the forehead protector that represents a ninja, so that everyone will know that he, Uzumaki Naruto, has become a ninja!

What he didn't expect was that during this process, he saw a familiar figure, with familiar short black hair and a familiar walking posture, which made Naruto widen his eyes.

That was...his first friend! The first friend he hadn't seen in over a year.
