Naruto hodgepodge

As the Third Hokage led the elite Anbu to take a step forward, the Nine-Tails' chakra mysteriously dissipated. The original Naruto lived in the second ring of Konoha. The Third Hokage and his men rushed to the scene at an extraordinary speed.

Naruto carried a little girl named Naruko on his shoulders (who was actually the incarnation of the Nine-Tails in this world), and stood in front of Uzuki Yugao with a little embarrassment, explaining: "Well, I was trying a new ninjutsu just now, and I accidentally lost control, and my home is gone... Can you help me find a temporary place to live?"

Upon hearing this, Mao Yue Xi Yan's face flashed with surprise and worry, and then she responded softly: "Is that so? This situation is indeed a bit tricky. I..."

As the two were talking, a large army arrived. The Third Hokage was dressed in a majestic battle uniform and walked steadily. His eyes first fell on the ruins of Naruto's house, but then he noticed Naruto and the little girl on his shoulder who were safe and sound. The Third Hokage quickly stepped forward and carefully checked Naruto. After confirming that he was unharmed, the big stone in his heart finally fell to the ground, revealing a relieved smile.

"Naruto, I'm glad you're okay." The Third Hokage felt Naruto's seal and made sure there was no problem, then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grandpa Sandaime, you're here! I'm so sorry, I just had an accident when I was practicing new ninjutsu, and my house was blown up. But luckily everyone is fine, I'm just trying to find a place to settle down." Naruto pointed at the little girl on his shoulder and added: "This is someone I met on the road, her name is Naruko, she's an orphan, I want to take her to a safe place first."

Just as Naruko was about to open her mouth to refute, a steady and powerful voice suddenly sounded in her mind. It was Kurama from the depths of Naruto's soul: "Quiet, if you don't want to be sealed again, listen to Naruto's arrangements." This voice was filled with unquestionable majesty, which stunned Naruko for a moment.

Naruko established some strange connection with the Kurama in the spiritual space. She glared at the imprisoned Nine-Tails and retorted with gritted teeth: "You shameless outsider, return my body to me!"

Kurama curled up in the seal leisurely and didn't care about Naoko's anger, even with a bit of joking: "Hmph, forget it, you still get sealed." After that, Kurama casually snapped his fingers, and an invisible force instantly expelled Naoko from the spiritual space and returned to reality.

Hearing this, the Third Hokage gently glanced at the little girl on Naruto's shoulder, who was wearing Naruto's clothes, and then looked at Naruto's slightly embarrassed but determined expression, and said gently, "You don't have to worry about the issue of accommodation. Konoha will arrange everything for you. Now, come with me, we need to talk about what happened today."

After saying that, the Third Hokage patted Naruto's shoulder gently and led him and Naruto to a safe place. At the same time, he did not forget to instruct Uzuki Yugao and other Anbu members to quickly deal with the scene and ensure the safety and order of the villagers.

As the Third Hokage walked into the office, the atmosphere instantly became solemn. At the same time, Danzo also hurried over, his eyes quickly swept over Naruto and Naruko, and finally fixed on Naruto, revealing a bit of complexity. He turned to the Third Hokage, and his tone was unquestionable: "Huruzen, you can't let the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki go like this anymore. I think the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki should be handed over to me."

The Third Hokage's face darkened when he heard this, and he responded directly and firmly: "Danzo, your proposal is too ridiculous, it's simply a fantasy."

There was a flash of anger in Danzo's eyes, but seeing that nothing seemed to happen today, Hiruzen would not agree. He planned to leave, leaving a cold sentence: "You will regret your decision."

The Third Hokage straightened his back, his voice revealing the majesty and determination of a Hokage: "I am the Hokage."

Faced with the Sandaime's firm attitude, Danzo turned around angrily. Before leaving, the Sandaime explained to Danzo: "This time it was just an accident when Naruto was practicing ninjutsu. Let your subordinates retreat and don't cause any more misunderstandings with Uchiha."

After hearing this, Danzo curled up the corner of his mouth into a cold smile, and with a heavy "humph", he turned around suddenly. The force was so great that the door made a loud "bang" under the huge impact, and it closed heavily, echoing throughout the corridor.

However, after leaving the office, Danzo quickly adjusted his mood and regained the calmness and rationality that a Konoha high-level official should have. Although he was unwilling to accept the decision of the Third Hokage, maintaining the stability and harmony of Konoha was the top priority. So, after leaving the office, he called a Root member who came with him and conveyed his instructions in a low and serious voice: "Go find Aburame Marun and tell him that the operation is canceled. Avoid any unnecessary conflicts with the Uchiha clan and be cautious."

The Anbu members took the order and left, while Danzo stood in the shadow of the corridor with a deep gaze, as if he was thinking about a more far-reaching layout and plan.

Naruto looked at Danzo's departing back, and couldn't help but feel a little wary. He turned his head and looked into the spiritual space, and asked softly: "Kuroma, do you have any impression of the old man in bandages?"

Hearing this, Jiu Lama closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then slowly spoke: "Well... I don't have direct memories, but it seems that you died a long time ago after becoming the Seventh Hokage. However, this guy still left you with a lot of troubles despite his death." Although Jiu Lama is not good at the intrigues between humans, his intuition tells him that this guy is definitely not a good person: "Naruto, you have to be extra careful in front of him, don't let his dark means hurt you."

Because time almost stops in the mental space, Naruto began to search through Otaku's memory fragments.

Shimura Danzo, male, birthday: January 1, age: 6, ninja number: 73, identity: leader of the Anbu organization "Root", the 000272th and 5.5th generation Hokage of Konoha. Personality: ambitious, tough, extremely suspicious.

Biography: The leader of the "Root" of Konoha Village in the Land of Fire. When he was young, he was a member of the second generation Hokage's guard force. He was a teammate with Sarutobi Hiruzen, Uchiha Kagami, Mito Kado En, Utatane Koharu, and Akimichi Tofu. He was strong and good at wind escape ninjutsu. He was also a shrewd guy who didn't trust the Uchiha clan very much and wanted to become the Hokage at all costs. He would do anything to achieve his goal and used tough means to protect Konoha. In the end, he was defeated by Uchiha Sasuke in the battle on the way to become the sixth generation acting Hokage to participate in the Five Kage Talks. In order to defend the Eye of Shisui, he committed suicide with the Four Symbols Sealing Technique.

Naruto probably knows about Danzo in his memory. His memory unlocks some flashbacks before the start of the Naruto plot. As long as he sees the key characters and searches for them, they will be triggered. Currently, except for the ones related to Gen Itachi, basically all the flashbacks before graduation from the Ninja School have been unlocked.

Naruto's thoughts brought him back to reality: "You bastard, put me down now."

Naruto threw Naruko with a malicious look, and Naruko fell to the ground with a "bang".

Unlike before when she fell from the air and her chakra didn't dissipate and could protect her body, because now she is equivalent to a human body, Naruto threw her so hard that she almost cried. "How dare you throw me to the ground, you little brat!"

Naruto shrugged modestly, "Ah, sorry, you were the one who asked me to put you down."

The Third Hokage's gaze lingered on Naruto for a moment, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He noticed that Naruto seemed to have become somewhat rebellious, and even deliberately dropped the pretty and cute little girl next to him to the ground, which made him frown, thinking to himself: "Why did this kid suddenly become so naughty? Does he want to be single for the rest of his life? But, having said that, I originally wanted to understand what happened tonight. After all, the sudden release of the Nine-Tails Chakra is no small matter, and the sudden appearance of this mysterious girl named Naruko is very suspicious."

The Third Hokage quickly adjusted his thoughts, and Naruto also helped Naruko up at this time. The Third Hokage turned to Naruto and said in a tone that was both stern and caring: "Naruto, what is going on tonight, and who is this little girl wearing your clothes?"

Naruko waved her hands with full momentum, put her hands on her waist and said arrogantly: "I am... wu..." Then she was covered by Naruto before she finished speaking. Naruto whispered: "Are you stupid? If you tell me, I will lock you up and seal you up. You can't even beat me with your weak arms and legs. Don't look at this old man who is weak and fragile. There are two mysterious ninjas wearing masks standing behind him. Be honest." After speaking, Naruto took Naruko's eyes and looked at Yugao Yugao behind the Hokage. Naruko was finally obedient and nodded frustratedly: "Okay"

The Sandai looked at the expressions of the two children, then looked at Lu Yue Xi Yan behind him with a sense of vigilance, and said to Lu Yue Xi Yan and another Anbu: "You should retreat first."

Yugao Yugao and another ANBU: "Yes, Hokage-sama"

Naruto looked at the ninjas who were gradually dispersing, and explained to the Third Hokage, "She was a lost child, and I happened to pick her up. I don't know why it was such a coincidence. As for the specific situation just now, when I was practicing the ninjutsu you taught me, I fell into a coma due to excessive fatigue, and was unexpectedly led to a mysterious door by a giant fox. It gave me a power, but when I tried to use this power to perform fire escape and earth escape ninjutsu, the power was too strong and it went out of control and caused an explosion. Not only did my residence turn into nothing, but even the comics I carefully drew and the new five-year plan for Konoha that I wrote with great effort based on the previous plan were destroyed. It's really a pity."

After listening to Naruto's words, the third generation began to ponder and imagine.

First of all, the "evening event" mentioned by Naruto obviously refers to the fact that he unconsciously activated the power of the Nine-Tails. Due to excessive use of chakra when practicing ninjutsu, he accidentally triggered the Nine-Tails seal in his body, and the Nine-Tails gave him some power. However, since Naruto has not yet fully mastered this power, he lost control when performing fire and earth ninjutsu, causing an explosion.

Secondly, the Third Hokage noticed the little girl's golden-red hair and carefree personality, which were highly similar to the characteristics of Uzumaki Kushina after she transformed into a tailed beast, that is, she was a little smaller than the current Kushina when she first entered Konoha. Combined with the situation when the Minato couple sealed the Nine-Tails in Naruto's body, the Third Hokage speculated that the appearance of this little girl might be related to Kushina's chakra or soul. At that time, he did not dare to destroy the sealing barrier and did not rush in, especially considering that Minato never did anything unnecessary. At that time, the Shiki Fuujin had already sealed the Nine-Tails, and Kushina was talking to Minato. Minato used the special sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan before his sacrifice. Later, when he went in, Kushina's soul and chakra also disappeared. The Third Hokage believed that a certain form of Kushina's existence might be preserved and awakened or released under certain conditions.

Finally, the Third Hokage believed that Naruto's process of gaining power from the Nine-Tails tonight might have triggered Kushina's seal, allowing some form or consciousness of her to emerge. This would explain the sudden appearance of the little girl.

After listening to Naruto's story, the Third Hokage's kind smile, originally due to "Kushina" (Naruko), was inadvertently mixed with a hint of complex emotions. His eyes moved between "Kushina" and Naruto, and he secretly sighed at the wonderful arrangement of fate, and Naruto's inadvertent "disrespect" to his "mother" (Naruko) by throwing her to the ground. The Third Hokage could only shake his head gently, holding his forehead with a bit of helplessness, thinking: "This child is really... filial"

Then, the Third Hokage quickly adjusted his mood and became serious and focused, and turned his attention to the new five-year plan for Konoha mentioned by Naruto. Since he saw Naruto's plan, it is not just a plan, but a blueprint to guide Konoha's future. Konoha has always relied on the country and the daimyo to live. Even when Naruto became the Seventh Hokage and developed Konoha so prosperously and had a great reputation, it was all supported by the Fire Country. The original Naruto had no choice but to obey the daimyo's order to reduce Konoha's expenses, not to mention their current high dependence. The Third Hokage has been suppressing the daimyo but still has to obey the daimyo's orders. This system cannot be solved by changing the daimyo. Only the development of Konoha's own industry can get rid of this predicament. Naruto's plan gave him hope. The road must be taken step by step. He knows the importance of this plan, so he decided to temporarily put aside his doubts about "Kushina's" identity and ask about the details of the plan.

"Naruto, regarding your new five-year plan for Konoha, I'm sorry to hear that it has been damaged, but do you still remember the key points? This is crucial to the future development of Konoha." The Third Hokage's voice was gentle and firm, revealing unquestionable authority.

Naruto scratched his head and looked a little embarrassed. "Uh, that... it's really too late, and my mind is a little confused now. But don't worry, as long as I give you some time to rest, I will definitely be able to sort out a new plan." He promised solemnly, and at the same time did not forget to strive for a comfortable rest environment for himself and "Kushina".

The Third Hokage nodded, showing his understanding. "Well, in that case, I will arrange accommodation for you first." He pointed to the house next to the office building and said, "Naruto, you will be arranged to live here. It is closer to the Hokage building and safer. As for this..." He glanced at "Kushina" and a trace of kindness flashed in his eyes, "Let her live with you temporarily so that you can take care of each other."

Then, the Third Hokage repeatedly reminded Naruto: "Remember, no matter what happens, do not study those dangerous ninjutsu without authorization. Your safety is of paramount importance. When you wake up tomorrow, you must complete the Konoha Five-Year Plan as soon as possible."

At the same time, considering that Naruto's experience tonight may have had a certain psychological impact on him, and the sudden outburst of the Nine-Tails still needs to be confirmed, the Third Hokage also decided to let Naruto temporarily suspend his studies so that he can fully rest and adjust his condition. "During this period of time, you should have a good rest. I will help you apply for leave from school. When you are ready, come back to continue studying."

In this way, under the careful arrangement of the Third Hokage, Naruto and Naruko were arranged to live in a ring of Konoha, under the nose of the Third Hokage.
