Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

If it were anyone else, it would be difficult to believe him easily, let alone tell him so much.

“However, things are different now.”

Shisui shook his head at Izumi Uchiha, and said with utmost seriousness.

“You have already proven that you are different from Itachi Uchiha, and we have seen your efforts over the years.

That kind of hard work is not something ordinary people can endure, but you have been able to persist until now with just a word from Lord Shuize.

Even we have to admire you for this, and of course, the most important thing is that you have gained Lord Shuize's approval.

So, welcome home, Sasuke.”

“Home?”

Hearing these words, Sasuke's heart was filled with excitement.

How long had those emotions of pain, guilt, and loneliness surrounded him?

Although he knew that there was another survivor besides him, that older sister had never even looked at him directly.

The gap between them seemed like an unbridgeable chasm, and he always felt like he was alone.

But now it's different. Seeing Brother Shisui, Sister Izumi, and those former clansmen.

He truly felt that the Uchiha clan was still there, that the Uchiha clan was not just him alone!

“Wow…”

At this moment, Sasuke finally couldn't control his emotions anymore. He hugged Shisui tightly and burst into tears.

His cries echoed continuously within the Root, as if he wanted to vent all the pain he had endured over the years.

“Sasuke… Alas…”

Hearing his cries, the other Uchiha also sighed. At this moment, they finally stopped facing Sasuke with those cold expressions.

They actually knew that, compared to them, Sasuke was actually the one who had lived the most painful life.

The pain he had endured was unimaginable, and he was just a thirteen-year-old child!

But now, everything was about to get better!

All of this was thanks to Lord Shuize!

“Tch, how touching.”

Kabuto looked at everything in front of him, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, he shook his head slightly, and silently turned around and walked outside.

It was better to leave this time to Sasuke and the Uchiha clan. He, an outsider, should not disturb them.

For some reason, he suddenly remembered the days in Iwagakure.

If it weren't for Shuize, the collapse in his heart would probably be more serious than Sasuke's, because he really had no ability to salvage everything.

“What a lucky guy, but so am I.”

The candlelight flickered, and Kabuto silently walked out of the Root, stood at the entrance, and looked up at the moon in the sky.

Suddenly, he felt that he hadn't visited the orphanage for a long time, and it was time to visit the director.

“Take a day off tomorrow, and not care about that bastard Shuize so much!”

Kabuto made a decision secretly, and then his figure silently disappeared into the darkness.

Only in the dark night, the reflection of his glasses flickered slightly, obviously he glanced back at the Root base.

“Cry, cry, after training starts tomorrow, these tears probably won't be enough…”

The moonlight was hazy, and the silver moonlight洒落 on the eaves of the Senju clan's residence.

Yuugao wiped her body and walked to the bed to sit down.

“You've worked hard.”

Shuize, who was sitting on the bed, hugged her and whispered in her ear at the same time.

“Don't make trouble, I haven't dried off yet.”

Yuugao chuckled, but leaned into Shuize's arms.

“It's not hard work, actually, Konoha responded very promptly this time, and there were no civilian casualties.

It's just that there are more follow-up problems to deal with. Besides, the real hard work is yours, Hikari's, and the teacher's.

You not only have to be responsible for the battle, but also have to deal with a series of subsequent negotiations. Isn't that the real hard work?”

“You see things clearly, unlike the teacher who only knows how to scold me for being lazy.”

Shuize smiled as he hugged Yuugao, while Yuugao turned her head and pointed at Shuize's forehead.

“It's normal to say you're lazy. You're the Hokage Assistant, so you should do more. Of course, the teacher's words are also unfair.

After all, I heard that you met with the people from Amegakure, and also met with Pakura?”

Yuugao can still get a lot of information in the Anbu, especially since she is still a captain, and the information passed to her is only more, not less.

However, some information probably no one will transmit indiscriminately.

Shuize has also been in the Anbu, and everyone is familiar with each other. Now he is the Hokage Assistant, and even in the future he is likely to be the Hokage.

I'm afraid that if he has any 'shady' things, everyone will tacitly help him hide it.

Hiruzen Sarutobi has already made a statement, and all Anbu will be tacit!

But they don't know that Yuugao probably doesn't care about this at all…

“What, aren't you going back to your room to wait for Hikari tonight?”

Looking at the time, Yuugao asked amusingly.

“I heard that Hikari has been running to you all this time.”

“…Karin, that little ghost, said it, right?”

Without even thinking, Shuize knew what was going on, which made him gnash his teeth a little.

“What, do you still want to take revenge on her? Be careful the teacher won't spare you.”

Seeing Shuize like this, Yuugao found it a little funny, she gently hugged Shuize and closed her eyes.

In fact, she had long anticipated these things in her heart.

As a descendant of the Senju, and like the First Hokage, he independently awakened the Wood Release, showing the terrifying power to look down upon the world.

His bloodline continuation is naturally extremely important!

Yuugao herself had thought of this, and Shuize had also jokingly mentioned it.

Moreover, even the Third Hokage had vaguely said it to her!

At first, she admitted that she might have felt a little unhappy, but now…

“Okay, it's time to rest.”

Shuize gently hugged her and fell down, which made her a little flustered.

“Wait, I still have things to do tomorrow!”

“Rest tomorrow, take a day off!”

“Hey, is that how you act as the Hokage Assistant?”

“Yeah, I'm the Hokage Assistant. Tomorrow you transfer your post and temporarily protect me for a day, that's it!”

“…Hey, you're abusing your power for personal gain.”

“Don't worry about that. Tomorrow you protect me well, even at home!”

The rustling sound sounded, and the breeze blew, slowly closing the curtains.

Bang—

“What's going on?”

However, at this moment, their door was suddenly pushed open.

This frightened Shuize and Yuugao, and they sat up immediately, and then they looked in astonishment as Hikari walked in from outside…

Chapter 158: Minato's Sincerity, Trip to the Moon!

“Hey, hey, hey, it's rare to see you in the Root, what's with that listless look?”

The next day, the sun was shining brightly.

It was difficult for such sunshine to penetrate the Root base, much like Shuize's current mood.

Shisui stood aside, looking at Shuize, who was a little listless, and rubbed his hair curiously.

Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and asked cautiously.

“You wouldn't be… caught by Yuugao, would you?”

“…”

Shuize looked up at Shisui, what was this bastard saying?

“Caught? How could I be afraid of being caught? I'm not you, the entire Konoha is eager for my bloodline to continue!”

“…”

Hearing these words, Shisui actually had a feeling of speechlessness. Thinking carefully, it seemed to be true.

Wood Release was a symbol of Konoha's power, and probably everyone hoped that this power would continue.

Especially since his Wood Release was no less than the First Hokage's, at least it looked like it!

Therefore, Shuize didn't seem to be afraid at all…

“Then what's wrong with you?”

“Alas, you don't understand.”

Shuize showed a look of looking at a fledgling bird, and then helplessly supported his head and didn't say a word.

Everything from last night was still 'vivid in his mind'.

Shuize, who originally planned to have a good exchange with Yuugao, was attacked by Hikari!

In fact, Shuize had imagined such a situation before, but there was a saying that was very good.

Fantasy is plump, but reality is bony.

The final result was that Yuugao directly turned into an 'ostrich', and Shuize hugged one side and slept peacefully all night.

Thinking of this, Shuize couldn't help but raise his head and asked Shisui sadly:

“You Uchiha, do you have a particularly strong desire to win or lose?”

“?”

Shisui was a little dazed, thought about it, and nodded.

“It seems, it's quite strong, what's wrong?”

“Nothing.”

Shuize sighed, probably unwilling to recall the sad things, he decisively changed the topic.

“By the way, where's that guy Kabuto? Why haven't I seen him today?”

“He took a day off, it seems he went to the orphanage, right?”

Shisui shrugged, in fact, he also felt that Kabuto was very tired.

They were both Deputy Chiefs, but he was in charge of operations, and he didn't need to think so much about many things, just take people out and do it.

Kabuto was different, responsible for budgets, intelligence classification, and all kinds of administrative affairs.

He sometimes wondered, when Shuize went to be the Hokage in the future, the new Chief of the Root would most likely be split from the two of them.

Perhaps, Kabuto would be the new Chief in the future?

He wasn't jealous of this, after all, he was also clear about his situation. Compared to doing those messy administrative affairs, he still liked to take people to fight.

“That guy, really, what time is it, and he actually ran to take a vacation?”
