Shocked! I can't hide my tears!

Looking at Uzumaki Naruto who was showing an ecstatic expression, Jiraiya smiled helplessly, stretched out his big hand and rubbed the latter's head.

"But if you want to learn this move, you have to endure a lot of hardships. It's even more difficult than spiritualism."

Hearing this, Naruto wiped his nose with his hand and said, "I will definitely learn the ninjutsu of the Fourth Hokage. It will be hard, but I am not afraid!"

"You have ambition!" Jiraiya said with a proud smile, his face full of satisfaction. He liked enthusiastic young men like Naruto.

Rather than those so-called geniuses...

"call out!"

Just then, a figure appeared in front of the two of them, wearing a fox mask and an Anbu uniform.

It turned out to be an Anbu ninja under the command of the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen!

"Master Jiraiya, Uzumaki Naruto, this way please..."

Jiraiya glanced at the latter, his expression unchanged, he naturally knew where the other party's Anbu was, and then he waved his hand...

...

Hokage's Office

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the portraits on the wall, especially the fourth one, which was a portrait of a handsome man, the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze.

"Will you hate me for what I have done?" he muttered to himself.

"Sandaime... he is Naruto... the child of Minato and I..."

In a trance, the words entrusted by Kushina and Minato that night were still lingering in my ears...

"It's been twelve years already..."

boom!

Just when Hiruzen was feeling disappointed, the door of the Hokage's office was suddenly kicked open, and then a figure with an old man in his right eye slowly walked towards them.

The Darkness of Konoha, the man who controls the Root, Danzo Shimura!

"It's the same old problem again. Didn't I tell you before to knock on the door when you come in?" Sarutobi Hiruzen glanced at him and said in a cold voice.

"It's an old habit that I haven't changed for more than ten years." Danzo said casually.

The two fell into silence, and the office was silent.

"Huruzen, you've seen the video, right? You know why I'm here." Danzo stared at Hiruzen for a moment and said bluntly.

"Naruto.."

"That's right. The Nine-Tails Jinchuriki does not need too much emotion. Hand him over to the Root, and I will definitely turn him into a truly perfect Jinchuriki!" said Danzo.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was silent for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Don't even think about this matter. I will never hand Naruto over to the Root."

"Hiruzen, you should know how important the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is to the village. Your gentle method will not work on him at all. Only I..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen interrupted immediately and said sternly: "Shut up, Danzo, you have to understand that now, I am the Hokage!"

"You'll regret this, Hiruzen!"

Hearing this, Danzo snorted coldly, then slammed the door and walked out!

After Danzo left, the office fell into silence again.

"call out!"

Outside the window, it was Jiraiya and Naruto who came to the office in an instant...

"Third generation grandfather!"

Naruto looked at the old man and shouted first.

And Hiruzen's expression also relaxed, becoming peaceful again, the fierceness just now disappearing in an instant.

"Little guy, well done!" he said with a smile, feeling very pleased. He also saw the scenes in the video with his own eyes.

He was both pleased and impressed by the latter's strength.

"Old man, you seem to be becoming more and more worried." Jiraiya seemed to sense a trace of Danzo's remaining chakra, then looked at Hiruzen and said.

"You've been gone for more than ten years, and now you're trying to comfort me?" There seemed to be a hint of reproach in Hiruzen's words.

"You've left an old man like me to guard Konoha all by myself, but you're still out there having fun, and you don't even bother to stay and help me."

"Hehe, you know, I can't get away from it because of some things." Jiraiya laughed.

"Looking for your so-called child of prophecy?"

Hearing this, Jiraiya fell silent for a rare moment.

"Child of prophecy? What is the Child of prophecy?"

Naruto leaned over, looking confused. What on earth were they talking about? He couldn't understand.

"Lewd Sage, how long will it take you to teach me that powerful ninjutsu?"

"You idiot, why are you so impatient? Go play somewhere else!" Speechlessly, Jiraiya urged and directly kicked Naruto out of the office.

Seeing this, Naruto snorted in dissatisfaction, then left the Hokage's office building and headed straight for Konoha Hospital.

He wanted to give the healing potion awarded by Tianmu to Thick Eyebrows to see if it would be effective for his injuries.

Oh, by the way, there is also Hinata. She was also seriously injured at the time and is said to be still recovering at home. Well, I must go and see her.

From the window, Naruto could be seen walking further and further away. Jiraiya looked disappointed and said calmly: "Old man, you have gone too far these years."

"Ugh.."

Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen simply sighed and instantly looked much older.

"I feel guilty towards them, but this is a fact that cannot be changed." He said calmly.

.....

Konoha Hospital

Naruto took a few detours and finally arrived at the Konoha Hospital.

It was quite far, but as soon as he entered, he ran into Shikamaru. After discussing for a while, the two of them walked towards Xiao Li's ward.

"Thick Eyebrows, we're here to see you!"

Those were Naruto and Shikamaru, who, after finding out the location of Lee's ward, headed straight there, the former then pushed the door open first and shouted.

"Is it Naruto-kun, and Shikamaru-kun?" Xiao Li, who was about to get out of bed to do rehabilitation exercises, was slightly startled, and then said in surprise.

"Hey, how's your injury? Thick eyebrows?" Naruto walked forward, looked at Xiao Li and laughed.

"It's still the same." Upon hearing this, Xiao Li's face turned bitter.

"After getting hurt like that, it's probably impossible to fully recover in such a short time..." Shikamaru glanced at the other party and continued:

"Xiao Li, your leg injury..."

Xiao Li's pretty face was gloomy and bitter. She had already been seriously injured when she opened the five gates in anger, and then with the impact of Gaara's sand, she has not found a way to treat it until now.

As for Mr. Kai, he is now seeking medical treatment in various places in Konoha and has not returned yet.

"Hey, I have something here that may be able to cure your thick eyebrows!" Naruto said with a smile, pretending to be mysterious.

Upon hearing this, the two looked at each other in surprise. Because the sky curtain reward had not been announced, they did not know that the other party had received the reward.

"Here, that's it!"

Naruto pulled out a bottle of emerald green potion from his arms, placed it in front of the other party, and explained: "This is the reward that Tianmu gave me before. It's something or other... um... Anyway, it's a magical potion that can cure the thick-browed legs!"

Hearing this, the two were shocked and turned their eyes to the potion in each other's hands. How could such a thing exist in this world?

"Have you tried this thing?" Shikamaru asked seriously. Although this thing sounded tempting, he had never heard of such a thing in the ninja world.

It can heal the fundamental injury in an instant, even that princess can't do it!

"Uh..." Naruto froze for a moment, as if he had never tried it before. He was in a hurry at that time, so he didn't try it.

"Well...why don't you try thick eyebrows? I feel like Tianmu won't lie to me." Naruto murmured.
