Naruto: Changing Fate

Well, not bad, very good.Not only did you master the shadow clone technique without anyone's guidance, but you were also able to guide the child from the Uchiha clan to train with ease...Naruto, you can really surprise grandpa.

Looking at Naruto who was finally willing to put down his guard and show up, the Sandaime Hokage raised his hand to stroke the beard on his chin while smiling and praising softly.

Speaking of which...you kid actually recognize me?

Humph, of course, I see the grandpa statue carved on the Hokage Rock every day!How could you not recognize it?

Hearing this, Naruto slightly proudly scratched the tip of his nose with his fingers, then straightened his body with his hands on his hips, squinted his eyes and responded with a smile.

Well, it's okay. Although I have been practicing hard, I still can't hide it from Grandpa Sandaime Hokage... Hehe, it is exactly what others said, Grandpa Sandaime Hokage is the strongest ninja in the village!

Hahaha!Although you are young, you are quite good at flattering me with your words.

After hearing Naruto's words, the Sandaime Hokage, who was lightly smoking the pipe in his mouth, couldn't help but smile more in his eyes. He freed up a hand to cover the person's little head and caressed him, and at the same time asked curiously as if he remembered something.

Wait a minute, what you kid said before was...Long time no see?

Ah, of course. Although I don’t have much impression, I think this is definitely not the first time that Grandpa Sandaime and I have met.

After hearing the question from the person in front of him, Naruto suppressed the shame in his heart and allowed his head to be touched like a coaxing child. He raised his head a little, and with an undiminished smile, he said words that shocked the Sandaime Hokage.

After your parents sacrificed their lives for the village, your grandfather as the Sandaime Hokage must have gone to the scene to confirm the situation, right?If you think about it this way, it’s normal to guess that we’ve met before!

Mom and Dad...Sacrifice...Naruto, you...? !

As soon as Naruto finished speaking, the Sandaime Hokage felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave and a chill surged through his body. With his palms trembling slightly, he carefully observed Naruto's expression.

Who told you this?Naruto...do you know who your parents are?

Of course, as a child that my parents protect with their lives, how could I not know who my parents are?

Noticing the scrutinizing gaze cast by the Sandaime Hokage, Naruto raised his head and looked directly at Da Fangfang without any evasion. He tilted his head slightly as if he was just saying a normal little thing, and continued word by word. Said.

My mother is the previous Kyuubi Jinchuuriki before me, Uzumaki Kushina.And my father is the great hero who sacrificed his life to save the village, the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato...

Am I right?Grandpa Sandaime Hokage.

...You're right, kid.The Sandaime Hokage looked carefully at the little guy in front of him, and found that the laughing Naruto not only did not have any hatred or dissatisfaction with him due to the indifference and discrimination of the villagers over the years, but trusted the Sandaime Hokage without any reservation at the same time, his blue and clear eyes were filled with emotion. The hint of intimacy made the Sandaime Hokage feel greatly relieved.Because he knew his life experience, it didn't mean that he had broken the agreement with Danzo. He nodded slightly in confirmation of Naruto's answer.

Naruto...since you know your life experience, why didn't you tell grandpa earlier?In that case, there would be no need to suffer so much...

suffer?Hey, that's not the case!From the day I was born, this place has been filled with the love of my parents. The rest is just a matter of treating it as a kind of spiritual practice!

Naruto raised the corners of his mouth in a slight arc, and while pressing the thumb of one hand against his heart, the other hand pointed vaguely at the thick roots of the tree that were exposed in the soil beside the two of them.

Moreover, even Grandpa Sandaime Hokage failed to prevent this situation from happening, which shows that the village is not as peaceful and peaceful as it seems on the surface... At this juncture, it is okay for me to suffer a little grievance, but I cannot give Grandpa Sandaime Hokage any consequences for it. Adding more trouble.

This was not something Naruto was pretending to say, but he was speaking the truth.

Firstly, Naruto knew how ruthless Danzo could be in order to successfully sit on the throne of Hokage. Only by maintaining the identity of the despised demon fox can he more safely survive the most vulnerable period of childhood, which is prone to unknown deaths. Secondly... Out of familiarity and recognition of the kind old man in front of me.

Although Naruto didn't have much affection for the high-level officials of Konoha who had caused his tragic childhood, and could even be said to be full of disgust and disgust, he was truly full of respect for the seemingly amiable Sandaime Hokage in front of him.

The Third Hokage, Hiruzen Sarutobi... As one of the direct disciples of the First and Second Hokage, the Third Hokage possesses all five chakra attributes, so he alone can skillfully display the five attributes of wind, thunder, earth, fire, and water. Ninjutsu, he was known as a ninjutsu professor and at the same time he trained the world-famous Sannin!With a powerful strength that is difficult to match in the contemporary era, he inherited the title of God of Ninja from the first Hokage Senju Hashirama!

In addition, the Sandaime Hokage is the longest-serving Hokage in the history of Konoha and led the creation of the heyday of Konoha Ninja Village.Even more so when Orochimaru later led the invasion of Sunagakure Village and Sound Ninja Village, in order to protect the village, he fought alone against the two Hokages, the First and Second Generation Hokages, who were summoned from the world of the dead in the state of reincarnation.In the end, in order to protect the village from being destroyed by Orochimaru, he chose to sacrifice his own life and used the sealing technique·Ghoul Seal.It can be said that he was a respectable ninja who dedicated his whole life to his beloved village without any reservation and died exhausted.

Of course, these words alone can only gain Naruto's respect at most, and the most important point that makes Naruto completely trust the Sandaime Hokage is that when Naruto was ostracized and suppressed by the villagers and was framed as a demon fox, the Sandaime Hokage was During this period, he was one of the few and could even be said to be the only high-level members of Konoha who protected Naruto and were sincere to him.

When Naruto was a child, he was ostracized and resented by the villagers and became confused and aggrieved. It was the Sandaime Hokage who concealed his identity and stayed with Naruto, patiently persuading Naruto to step out of the shadow that could distort a person's psychology into a monster.

Umino Iruka, who influenced Naruto when he was bewitched by Mizuki and stole the Sealed Book, was the Sandaime Hokage who was worried about Naruto living alone and specifically asked him to take care of Naruto on his behalf.Kakashi Hatake, the teacher who has a great influence on Class [-], is also the best choice for Naruto to be arranged by the Sandaime Hokage after careful consideration.

Although these only happen to Naruto in the original work, since he has taken the identity of Uzumaki Naruto, he will naturally remember it in his heart... The kindness of a drop of water should be repaid with a spring of water, which is what Naruto has in mind. Important principles that we believe in!

...How much do you really know, kid?

Well, I just tried to collect some information on my own during my free time while practicing... I understand a little, I understand a little~

As he spoke, Naruto winked and blinked his eyes with an innocent face, trying to make himself look cute and harmless, but just from Naruto's small gesture of deliberately lightly pointing at the roots of the tree, it was enough for the Sandaime Hokage to know... The little body in front of him contained many surprises and secrets, many times more than he originally expected!

So, after enduring it for so long, why did you suddenly tell me these truths?Are you planning to keep hiding it?Or is there something important that makes you, little guy, have to ask the old man for help?

The Sandaime Hokage, who had gradually stopped treating Naruto as a child, slowly took back the palm he was stroking and asked softly. .

No, I plan to continue to hide it. After all, with my current strength, it is safer to live as a 'demon fox'... Therefore, this will be a secret between me and Grandpa Sandaime Hokage.

From the corner of his eye, Naruto glanced at the small fan playing with the shadow clone in the distant stream. After a pause, he suppressed the smile on his face and continued talking.

However, I do have a few things that I want to discuss with Grandpa Sandaime Hokage...

As Naruto explained everything in an orderly manner, his young face gradually showed a maturity that was clearly inconsistent with his age. While the Sandaime Hokage was surprised, he also vaguely felt a sense of familiarity and nostalgia... as if he had seen it. The same figure as Minato Namikaze who wore the robe of the Fourth Hokage and was calm and wise at every step!
