After staying in this era for a long time, Zuo Ji sometimes doubts his previous cognition.

Maybe this is the real her, she is a person living in this era, and those memories of the past are just a dream of hers.

Zhuang Shengxiao dreams of butterflies, but that's all.

After seeing a kind and gentle Itachi, she even felt that extermination might really be a ridiculous dream.While Uchiha's tension is growing, it doesn't seem to be on the ropes yet.

But when she saw Naruto Uzumaki when she was a child, she gave up all her previous doubts.

Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke are historical figures that she has only seen on a document or heard from others.To her in the past, it was just a piece of cold data stored in her mind.After coming here, I re-acquainted, got acquainted, and made friends.It can be said that she no longer regards them as historical figures, but as a close person.

But Naruto Uzumaki was different.

Due to the longevity of the Uzumaki clan, after Zuo Ji became sensible, almost all the people of that generation left, leaving only the elderly him.When he has nothing to do, he always likes to tease his junior, Saki.

When seeing that golden figure, Zuo Ji had a sense of reality that traveled through time and space.

However, the child in front of him is completely different from the high-spirited image in his memory.

At this time, he timidly hid behind the thick tree trunk, poked out half of his head, and stared at her vigilantly and uneasily.

"Come here." Zuo Ji waved to him.

The child behind the tree was hesitating, seeing that Zuo Ji didn't seem to be angry, so he walked over cautiously.

After Naruto approached, Zuo Ji knelt down, put his hands on his shoulders, and looked at him seriously: "I didn't hurt you just now, did I?"

"No...no." Uzumaki Naruto raised his head in surprise.

Originally, he thought he would be scolded, but he caught the sincere eyes of the other party.

He has seen too many cold eyes, but the girl in front of him is completely different from others.

He didn't deliberately please, nor was he indifferent, just watched him quietly.

At this time, he was too young to find any adjectives to modify it.When he grew up, recalling the first time he met Zuo Ji, her eyes seemed inexplicably nostalgic, which made him feel that his memory must have made a mistake.

"Really? That's good." Zuo Ji exhaled, and his heart gradually relaxed.

It would be a sin to accidentally hurt her great-grandfather who took good care of her.

Saki knew about Uzumaki Naruto's birth, but deliberately didn't look for him, not because she was ungrateful, but because she is now a Uchiha who is being watched by the village, if she rashly went to Kyuubi Jinchuriki, even if she had good intentions, she would be punished by someone Some people think it has a purpose.

She also heard the villagers talk about and dislike him and get angry, but she could only grit her teeth and bear it.Acting rashly at such a sensitive time will not benefit either party.

Now, since he bumped into him himself, she has no reason to let go.He found her by accident, plus there was another child present, even if she was invited to drink tea later, she would have an excuse

"What's your name?" Zuo Ji tilted his head, with a gentle expression on his face.

Although they all asked knowingly, the process still had to go through it again.

Perhaps it was because of Saki's harmless appearance, and because there was another person of the same age not far away, Naruto gradually let go of his guard, and said softly, "Uzumaki Naruto..."

"How old is this year?"

"Five years old."

"Ah, that's the same size as Sasuke."

"Saki, don't waste your time!" Sasuke was very upset when he saw that Zuo Ji put all his attention on another child, but he still pretended not to care, and urged her to continue to guide him.

"Okay," Zuo Ji raised the corners of his lips, "So, does Naruto want to come together?"

"Me?!" Apart from surprise, Naruto's eyes also had a hint of joy that couldn't be ignored, "Is it okay!?"

"It's up to you if you want to." Zuo Ji spread his hands.

"Saki, why are you teaching irrelevant people?" Sasuke said very unfriendly from the side.

Seeing Naruto with a nervous expression, Saki turned to look at Sasuke, and said slowly, "Are you afraid that others will surpass you?"

"How is it possible!" Sasuke frowned for a second, and he glanced at the dirty Naruto with disgust.

Just rely on him? !It looks like the tail of a crane!

"Don't judge people by their cover, Sasuke." Saki smiled.

This is the Seventh Hokage, the greatest ninja in the future, who has saved the world. No, the two children in front of this great deed have a share.

In fact, Zuo Ji's idea is very simple. She wants to get along with Naruto, and she also wants Sasuke to get along with Naruto.She feels that the competition among peers may stimulate more fighting spirit, so as to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Unfortunately, her wish came true.

When Naruto imitated her and Sasuke and threw the dart, Saki and Sasuke looked at the horrible target, and Sasuke snorted directly.

Zuo Ji couldn't believe it.

It turns out that the greatest ninja in the future was so bad when he was a child! ?It simply refreshed her cognition!

But on the other hand, Naruto did not have the teachings of his parents and teachers.Sasuke has been growing up under the guidance of his parents, brother and her.Tutoring is very important.

"It's okay, take your time." Zuo Ji was very patient.

She knows why.People of the Uzumaki clan will have a slash at the beginning of their practice. Because their own chakra is very special and powerful, it is difficult to control it at first, but once they master the method, they will improve rapidly.

She has been guided by various great gods since she was a child, grandfather Uzumaki Hiroto, grandmother Uchiha Sarana, great-grandfather Uzumaki Naruto, teacher Nara Shikayo, and various powerful uncles and aunts.But now Naruto has nothing.

She felt that she would do what she could to help him.

As a result, after an afternoon of training, Naruto's performance gave Sasuke a lot of confidence.

Sasuke felt that if people of the same age were at this level, they would be really weak!But he was not complacent, because he felt that he was still far behind his brother and Zuo Ji.

"Damn it! Obviously I followed Zuo Ji's movements, why didn't I hit it!" Naruto looked at the target with some frustration, and the darts on it were arranged in a disorderly manner.

"You're too impatient. Also, of course you can't do it like a cat or a tiger." Zuo Ji squatted down slightly, held his hand, and made a throwing motion.

A shuriken pierced through the air and stabbed firmly in the center of the target.

"It's amazing!" Naruto exclaimed.

"Use ingenuity instead of brute force. Do you remember this feeling?" Zuo Ji stood up and nodded when he saw Naruto half-understanding. He was in a good mood, "Then try it yourself!"

Naruto looked down at the shuriken in his hand, exhaled, and threw out the shuriken just like Zuo Ji personally instructed him just now.

However, the result was only a little better than before, just hitting the target.

"Idiot." Sasuke laughed from the side.

"What did you say?!" Naruto jumped up, "Do you want to fight?"

The young man in front of him challenged his bottom line again and again, even if Zuo Ji was his sister, he couldn't bear it anymore.

"Oh, why not, you can't beat me anyway." Sasuke snorted, raised his head and said.

"Damn it! Look at the trick!" Naruto ran towards him as he spoke.

Just when the tense atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out, a loud "bump" sound came from not far away, and then Sasuke and Naruto felt their eyes go dark, and when they raised their eyes, they saw the big tree closest to them snap off. is falling towards them.

The two moved away as fast as they could. Just when they were wondering why the tree fell, they realized that Zuo Ji's fist was resting on the broken part of the tree trunk.

At this time, she looked at them with a half-smile: "Let's think about what to have for dinner. If you get along well, we'll eat ramen. If not, well, I don't mind letting you experience what power is."

After that, she turned her head and glanced at the fallen tree.

Hearing that there was ramen to eat, Naruto immediately stood up obediently.He looked down at the collapsed tree trunk, feeling a little hairy in his heart.

What a terrifying power!Don't dare to mess with it at all!Is the image of the gentle big sister just now an illusion? !

It wasn't until Haruno Sakura smashed the ground apart with one punch that Uzumaki Naruto finally recalled the fear of being threatened by a strange force.

#You know nothing about power. #

And Sasuke was also surprised.

To be able to break a tree trunk with one punch is definitely not something that can be done with brute force.Sure enough, Zuo Ji's strength is stronger than he imagined!

But when it came to dinner, he was a little dissatisfied, and he didn't like to eat ramen: "Why ramen?"

"Then let's eat dessert. I haven't been to the newly opened dessert shop yet." Zuo Ji held his chin.

Sasuke immediately changed his words: "It's still ramen!"

"Well, does Saki really want to invite me to eat ramen?" Naruto still looked at Saki in disbelief.

Almost everyone in the village since he was a child avoided him. This was the first time he met someone who didn't dislike him. Although he didn't show enthusiasm, he could feel her kindness.

"Otherwise, I won't stop you if you want to treat me." Zuo Ji raised the corner of his mouth.

Seeing Naruto shaking his head hastily, she just felt that her great-grandfather subverted the image when he was a child.

Oh, these two great-grandfathers, one is arrogant and the other is stupid and cute, it's really interesting.

In fact, Naruto brought Saki to eat Ichiraku ramen for the first time, but now she brings Naruto.The corners of Saki's mouth twitched slightly when he saw Naruto eating ramen with great joy.

Traveling through time and space is really a wonderful thing.

Assuming she killed her great-grandfather at this time, would she still exist?

If there was no great-grandfather, there would be no her parents, and there would be no her.How could she return to the past without her?

"This is the delicacy in the world!" Naruto's loud voice brought her back to reality, and when she looked up, she saw that he had eaten all the soup, and she couldn't help smiling.

Ah, this habit has really started since I was a child.With a small appetite, she has always felt that it is not easy to eat all the soup after eating ramen.

"Do you want more?" Zuo Ji thought about his pocket money for this month, and felt that it would be okay to squander a few more bowls of ramen.

Who makes him like it?

"Is it okay!?" Naruto saw Zuo Ji's faint eyes, and he almost understood the opponent's routine, and he was no longer polite, "Slap uncle, and have another bowl!"

"Are you a pig?!" Sasuke muttered aside.

"You!" Naruto frowned instantly, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and then relaxed after a while, "Hmph, for Zuo Ji's sake, I won't argue with you."

Sasuke turned his head away, obviously not wanting to talk to him.

Boys seem to start out noisy.Presumably at this time, they never thought that they would have a deep bond in the future, and eventually became in-laws.

After dinner, Saki planned to send Naruto home first.

Walking on the avenue, Naruto was not as noisy as before, but suddenly became quiet.

Zuo Ji noticed that many people were pointing at them on the road, even Sasuke could not help frowning.

If the adults of the fourth generation are still alive and find out that they sacrificed themselves to protect the village, but their son is rejected by the people in the village, I don't know how sad it will be.

The hero's son obviously shouldn't be treated like this, unless the upper echelon deliberately conceals it.Concealing the identity of the hero's son, but spreading rumors about the incarnation of a demon fox, I have to say that such a ruthless style of acting is quite familiar.

She thought of the kind-looking face of the Third Hokage, and she always felt that the other party would not treat her grandson's son like this.So, could it be root operating in the background?

The more he thought about it, the more irritable he felt, Zuo Ji simply dismissed these boring thoughts from his mind, and turned to look at the two children beside him.

Naruto's face was full of disappointment, probably because he was reluctant to part.After all, you will be alone after you go back.People are social animals, and she also longs for warmth.

And Sasuke also changed his previous disgust, and instead thought about it.

He has always been a sensitive child, even though he is not very old now, he is very smart, he knows how to read words, and is more sensitive than ordinary people.

The journey from Yile Ramen to the single-person apartment is not far away, but the three of them walked out of the turtle speed.

"That... I can play with you next time... Oh no, do you practice?" Naruto raised his head and asked Zuo Ji cautiously.

Good times are always short-lived, even if he deliberately slowed down, he still arrived downstairs very quickly.

He likes the sister-like figure in front of him, although she has repeatedly emphasized not to call her sister, but to call her by her first name.Few people are willing to approach him, and he can feel her concern and love for him.

And another peer named Sasuke, even though they had quarreled several times today, he didn't hate him, on the contrary, he envied him very much, because he looked like a child cared for by his family.Although Sasuke disliked him time and time again, there was an essential difference between that look and the disgust of the villagers.

"Yes, I usually practice there." Zuo Ji thought about it, although she wanted to spend more time with Naruto, but she was about to enter the security department.

"I may not be here every day, but Sasuke has been here almost every day recently, right?" Zuo Ji turned to look at Sasuke.

"Who wants to be with..." Seeing Zuo Ji's serious eyes, Sasuke couldn't help hissing, but turned his head away and snorted awkwardly.

"Yeah!" Naruto nodded heavily.When he reached the stairs, he didn't forget to turn his head and wave goodbye to the two of them.

After sending away the reluctant Naruto, he turned his head and saw Sasuke who was full of doubts. Saki sighed, and it seemed that he was going to appease the problem children again.

"This apartment, if I remember correctly, is filled with relief people from the village." Zuo Ji spoke first.

"Is he an orphan?" Sasuke immediately reflected, "But, I still don't understand."

Although when he first met him, he found that the other party had attracted all of Zuo Ji's eyes, which made him very dissatisfied, but when he said hurtful words and saw the fragile eyes of the other party, he felt a little guilty in his heart.

If he was an orphan, he wouldn't care about his dirty appearance and dart-throwing technique that he couldn't bear to look at directly, but it was the strange eyes of passers-by that made him unable to figure it out.He was sure that the disgusted eyes were not looking at him and Zuo Ji, so the rest of the answer was obvious.

Zuo Ji raised his eyes and looked at the dark night sky, only a few stars were shining alone.

She said slowly: "People will always have fear of things beyond their control."

For the people in the village, the nine-tailed demon fox is something they cannot control, and it has also brought disasters to the people in the village.

For the village seniors, Uchiha is a family they cannot control, so they are always on guard.

People are always afraid of creatures stronger than themselves, maybe this can't be regarded as human inferiority.In the subsequent ending, either try every means to eliminate it, or subdue it completely.

"I don't think he's scary." Sasuke puffed up his mouth, but still couldn't come up with an answer after a while.

Although this guy named Naruto is stupid, he can't throw a shuriken in the bull's-eye all afternoon, although he stole all of Saki's eyes when he appeared, but...but he doesn't hate him very much!At least he won't show disgusted expressions like those villagers.

"So, don't judge people by their appearance," Zuo Ji smiled. "Actually speaking, it's not that Naruto is scary, but what's inside him makes people fearful. He just incidentally became people's disgust."

"Is there a monster in his body?!" Sasuke couldn't help exclaiming.

Zuo Ji nodded: "Ah, there lived a red fox. But this should be a secret."

In fact, she only knew that the village had issued an order to seal the demon fox, but their juniors never knew what the order was.

Seeing Sasuke's half-understanding expression, Zuo Ji paused, and then said: "So after you know this secret, what do you think of Naruto? Do you think he is a monster?"

"What monster? It's just an idiot." Sasuke snorted and said awkwardly.

Zuo Ji raised the corner of his mouth: "If you can still maintain your own judgment after hearing all kinds of rumors from the outside world, and don't follow others' opinions, then that's great."

The case of the nine-tailed demon fox is a typical example.People in the village are afraid of Naruto, but not many people know the truth, they are just hearsay.

Public opinion is often in the hands of those in power, and history is almost always written by the winners. Many truths have been lost in time, some have become permanent mysteries with the departure of the parties, and some have been overturned after many years. Material compensation is used, but the scar remains on the chest forever, and every time I think about it, it makes people suffocate.

Zhishui's belief in "supporting peace in the dark" is undoubtedly a practice of self-sacrifice, she admires it, but doesn't quite agree with it.

After blending into the darkness, it is easy to get lost.Even if you can see the direction clearly, others can't see you, and you can't tell if you were stabbed in the back.

"Why did you tell me?" Sasuke was a little happy, but more puzzled.

Obviously, his elder brother and parents would never tell him these important things, because he was too young, and they thought he didn't understand.

"Because I don't want to treat you as a child," Zuo Ji glanced at Sasuke's small body regretfully, "Although you are a child now."

In fact, she really didn't want to tell Sasuke these things. Precocious maturity is not necessarily a good thing, but in the current situation, ignorance means being slaughtered.

She thinks that sometimes he should discuss some deeper issues with him. Even if he doesn't understand now, as he grows older, he will eventually have his own thinking.

"The last sentence can be deleted!" Sasuke was slightly dissatisfied and muttered.

Originally, he was excited that someone finally stopped treating him like a child, but Zuo Ji beat him back to before liberation with one word.

Give him back his inspiration!

"Well, who picked out all the natto yesterday?" Zuo Ji teased.

It's also interesting to say, Itachi likes sweets and natto, Sasuke hates these two, and likes tomatoes, and Saki likes sweets, and also likes tomatoes.Therefore, it often appears on the dinner table that natto, tomato, and sweets stand together.

"It's better for brother to eat that kind of food!" Sasuke turned his head away, his cheeks were slightly flushed, as if he didn't want to admit it.

"Okay, I know you are showing respect to your brother, not picky eaters."

"Saki, you are so annoying!"

Laughter echoed in the streets.Facing the breeze, Zuo Ji raised the corners of his mouth, feeling full of happiness in his heart.

Although there are still all kinds of troubles and worries, but such a relaxed life where you can still bicker with the children, I really hope that it will be longer, and longer.
