Civilian Naruto: Becoming invincible from the Eight Gates

Chapter 23: Root Attacks, First Meeting with Danzo

Today is the happiest day for Uzumaki Naruto.

From now on, he is no longer alone.

He now has a powerful boss who takes him to eat his favorite Ichiraku Ramen.

Moreover, the boss is a kitchen staff of Ichiraku Ramen.

Everything is beautiful like a dream.

So much so that when Suzumiya Musashi was sending him home, he couldn't help jumping up and down while walking.

At night, Uzumaki Naruto lay in his little bed.

He covered his face with a quilt and laughed from time to time.

After a while, a faint sobbing sound was heard.

Then there was another burst of “Hehehe” laughter.

It took me a long time to fall asleep.

After sending Naruto home, Suzumiya Musashi walked slowly towards home alone.

As I walked, I was guessing when the higher-ups would react and what attitude I should adopt.

Soon, he had the answer.

very fast.

Because he hadn't reached home yet.

Under the calm night sky, the slightest sound of wind breaking can seem abrupt.

Suzumiya Musashi's hair stood on end and his body tensed.

The next moment, a black hand stretched out from his side with great force, and was about to grab his neck in the next second.

The muscles suddenly contracted, and the vigorous power buried in the body exploded.

"Oh!"

The speed of the punch was so fast that it was far beyond the attacker's expectation.

A powerful force exploded between the fists and fingers, and the attacking ninja suffered a severe blow to the face!

Shattered masks, splattered teeth.

And the lines on the tongue that are exposed unexpectedly.

【Root】

[Unsure of strength, but probably no more than a Chunin. ]

Suzumiya Musashi silently judged the opponent's strength in his heart.

The attacker took advantage of the situation and was hit hard in the face, temporarily losing the ability to react.

Kill you while you are sick.

"Konoha Tornado!"

"Bang!~"

He kicked the attacker in the chest with great force, breaking several bones and sending him flying backwards.

【More than one person! 】

A strong wind blew from the other side.

Suzumiya Musashi kicked out another Konoha whirlwind, but the opponent retreated immediately. It was obvious that he discovered that Suzumiya Musashi's strength was beyond his expectations and he did not intend to fight head-on.

"Earth escape technique: Earth flow!"

The ground below suddenly softened and turned into mud, and the people who came wanted to trap Suzumiya Musashi.

However, Suzumiya Musashi reacted extremely quickly, and he stomped his feet hard as soon as he performed the ninjutsu.

The powerful force made him bounce violently on the mud that had not yet completely softened.

"Konoha's powerful whirlwind!"

"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"

"Boom!!~"

The earth wall that had just been raised was penetrated by a huge force, and the eyes of the visitor behind the mask could not hide the shock.

"What a powerful physical skill!"

Two consecutive ninjutsu failed to work.

Before he could use other means, a flock of shurikens came whistling towards him.

He dodged quickly and knocked away several shurikens with a kunai. The huge vibration from his hands made his arms numb.

The ninja couldn't help but feel surprised.

[Didn't you say he was just an ordinary student? How could he be so fierce! ]

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

A green figure came quickly with shuriken and started a barrage of punches and kicks.

He tried to resist hastily, and every impact caused severe pain.

[Damn it! Is this kid a monster? ]

"boom!"

A flying kick hit the ninja's chin, his alarm clock buzzed, and his body was kicked into the air.

"Lion combo!"

"boom!!"

The heavy blow is followed by a close contact with the ground.

The powerful vibration caused consciousness to quickly dissipate.

The target's loud shouts could be heard faintly.

"Hurry up! Someone is committing a crime in Konoha! Help!~"

The thought flashed through the ninja's mind before he lost consciousness.

[The superiors shouldn’t have sent two of us Chunin members here]

[The little devil has no moral principles. I was too careless...]

Suzumiya Musashi was still shouting for help.

He was just an ordinary ninja school student who hadn't graduated yet. It was reasonable for him to panic and save his life when he was suddenly attacked.

However, after just two shouts, two masked ninjas swooped down not far away.

Just as I tensed my body and prepared for the fight, the other party spoke.

"Suzumiya Musashi, the Hokage wants to see you."

……

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen tapped the pipe in his hand and looked at Suzumiya Musashi who had a confused look on his face.

"Musashi, I came to you because I want to verify something with you."

"Hokage-sama, what happened?"

"Has the village been attacked by the enemy? I was just walking home when two ninjas suddenly attacked me!"

"Fortunately, I..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen called a halt: "Okay Musashi, that's not what I wanted to ask, it was just a misunderstanding."

"Uzumaki Naruto, how did you know each other? I want to know this."

Suzumiya Musashi was puzzled: "Naruto? That kid? Did you meet him like that?" Then, he briefly recounted how Naruto came to him when he was practicing Taijutsu.

"Swoosh, so it's a coincidence." Sarutobi Hiruzen said after exhaling a puff of smoke.

"Yes, Lord Hokage, what's the problem? Naruto is a lively guy, quite interesting. I don't know who spread the rumor in the village that he is a demon fox, it's really vicious!"

"Ahem!" Sandai was choked by the smoke, and then said, "Musashi, this matter is quite complicated. It will take a while to find out the cause."

"But Musashi, for some reason, you should not stay with Naruto. There will be someone in the village to take care of Naruto."

"Why?" Suzumiya Musashi looked puzzled: "Is there something wrong? Why did the Hokage make such a strange request?"

"Ahem! Well... the rumor that Naruto is a demon fox, the village needs to carefully consider how to deal with it."

"If you stay with him, it will have some impact on you. People don't have a good opinion of Naruto. When you graduate, your class placement may be affected. In this case..."

"Hokage-sama!" Suzumiya Musashi interrupted Sarutobi Hiruzen loudly, "We are all comrades in the village. How can we sever our ties just because of some rumors?"

He clenched his fists, and his eyes were determined under his shiny hair.

"Hokage-sama! Every person in the village is like leaves and branches, making up the village! My ninja way will never allow you to leave a partner because of other people's criticism!"

"Even if I am talked about or hated by others, I will remain firm in my choice! I will use my own voice to shout out! Everyone in Konoha is a companion who cannot be abandoned!!"

The gloomy Hokage's office was illuminated by a green light.

Sarutobi Hiruzen took one puff of his cigarette after another, thinking about what to say next.

"Hokage-sama! Brother Kai and Senior Kakashi made me understand the power of bonds and friendship. It is this kind of inclusive emotion and deep bond that can make Konoha Village always united."

"I will not leave Naruto, and I will never allow anyone to make me leave for any reason! Wherever the leaves fly, the fire will never stop. Although I cannot protect the entire village like the Hokage, I will still carry out this will of fire to the end, and use my own strength to burn myself for the brightness of the village."

"This... is my youthful ninja way!"

The green light began to sting Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes.

"Cough cough!" A familiar cough sound was heard, and a dark magnetic field faintly eroded the space of green light.

"Huruzen, why are you nagging at this brat?"

"Just give the order. There can't be any unexpected people around Naruto, so we have to put the tools in place..."

"Danzo!" Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted his old friend.

"Don't say this in front of the children."

"Humph!" Danzo snorted coldly, expressing his attitude. Then he spoke to Suzumiya Musashi in a deep voice.

"Suzumiya Musashi, don't look for Uzumaki Naruto again. This is an order from the village."

Suzumiya Musashi asked in confusion: "Hokage-sama, who is this old man?"

"Oh, this is Danzo, the senior advisor of the village. You should call him Elder Danzo." Sarutobi Hiruzen said.

"……Oh."

Suzumiya Musashi responded.

Then, he said to Sarutobi Hiruzen again: "Hokage-sama, I still insist on my idea! I can't..."

The gloomy look of Danzo increases by one.

At this time, a masked ninja came close to his ear and whispered something.

Danzo then looked at Suzumiya Musashi with a look of understanding on his face.

[A civilian ninja with good physical skills]

"Hiruzen! Stop wasting your time on such trivial matters."

"Just give the order."

"Hokage-sama, I don't agree!" Suzumiya Musashi said excitedly: "You have no idea how lonely Naruto is now!"

"Without companions, without relatives or friends, and with the people in the village showing undue malice, Hokage-sama, if Naruto is left alone like this, can he still grow up healthily and become the backbone of Konoha?!"

"Hokage-sama! I will never allow that! Everyone in this village should be a companion, a comrade! Someone with whom you can build a close bond."

"I often think that one day I will graduate and become a ninja, wearing the Konoha forehead protector and shining brightly. I want to be a ninja like my father! If, if I abandon my companions for this reason, then, will the Konoha on the forehead protector still shine brightly?"

Hot tears flowed, and snot was not to be outdone.

Suzumiya Musashi burst into tears.

"I won't allow...I won't allow."

"Okay!" Sarutobi Hiruzen tapped his pipe.

"Let's forget about this for now. There's nothing else to do here, Musashi. Remember, practice well and don't forget your dream. Never forget the Will of Fire of Konoha and your youthful ninja way."

"Hi! Hokage-sama."

"Hiruzen!" Danzo stood up from his seat in dissatisfaction: "The Kage of a village cannot be weak, you will regret it!"

"Danzo..."

"Elder Danzo!" Suzumiya Musashi looked at Danzo for the first time, with a determined look on his face.

"The Sandaime-sama is the Hokage!"

"It is right and great. He will surely lead Konoha and all of us to a better future and become the strongest Hokage in history!"

Danzo: "..."
