Chapter 73: The Treacherous Trick Succeeds
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was busy approving the paper, was a little puzzled. Why didn't anyone come to tell him about Naruto's arrival? But he didn't care too much. What he cares about is Naruto's attitude.... And what Naruto said in his mouth.
"Naruto, what's going on? What are you talking about? How do I treat Sasuke?" Sarutobi Hiruzen wondered.
Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen refused to admit. Naruto is even angrier!
"You...! You...!" Immediately he changed his words: "Sasuke has just encountered such a thing, why do you even send someone to snatch his home?!"
Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly realized what Naruto said was about this matter.
Only he felt strange.
This matter is obviously good for Sasuke?
His intention was to return Sasuke to the prosperous area of the village to live, rather than staying alone in that remote place. But how come this is said to Naruto, but it seems to have misunderstood his meaning?
Of course, Sarutobi Hiruzen does not stare at the crystal ball for 24 hours. So, he didn't know at all that Danzo sent someone to distort his meaning. This caused a misunderstanding between him and Naruto.
Sarutobi Hiruzen said: "Naruto, you misunderstand? I am worried that it would be unsafe for Sasuke to live alone in such a remote place. That's why he was ordered to move to a better area. So how is it my fault when it gets into your mouth?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen's explanation made Naruto stop talking on the spot.
In fact, when the Root ninjas told him the situation just now, he was blinded by his anger, which made him unable to know whether this matter was good or bad for Sasuke.
But since he had come here. It is not so easy to forget!
Naruto will just throw these out! Break the sand table and ask!
"Then... that... what about the Land-of-Whirlpools?! Why did my mother's clan send support when the village is in trouble, yet when other villages attack the Land-of-Whirlpools, the village just stands by? The big country! The great clan! Did nothing at all! What explanation do you have?!"
Hearing Naruto's words, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face sank in the hall.
The last thing he wanted was finally happening.
But to avoid Naruto's greater misunderstanding of the village or hostility to the village, Sarutobi Hiruzen still pretended to express a sad expression: "Hey~ Naruto... Some things are not as simple as you seem... You didn't understand the situation at the time. In fact, we also want to send people to rescue. How can the enemy who attacked the Land-of-Whirlpools not know our intentions? They have already arranged for an ambush on our way to Land-of-Whirlpools. At that time, the village experienced a war not long ago. We simply do not have enough troops to support it. When the village slowed down and finally has enough troops to support it, it's too late..."
He thought that as soon as Naruto heard his flawless explanation, Naruto would stop. But Naruto is angrier after hearing his comment!
'Isn't this exactly the same as what the big brother said?!'
'The old fogey will definitely say that village has gone through a big battle and cannot support! Really! The big brother was right! The old fogey really says so!'
Naruto pressed his anger slightly and asked again: "That's good, Old fogey! Then I ask you, what is Will of Fire? What does it mean to you?"
Naruto's attitude. Naruto's question. It made Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart feel even worse. It's just that he didn't show it to his face.
Still looking like a kind great-grandpa, he explained very patiently: "Will of Fire is the idea that every generation of village Hokage, every ninja, every villager should inherit. No matter how hard it is, how difficult the road is. The older generation will protect you and create a better future for the younger generation. Naruto, your father, is the best example. Although he died, he died guarding most of the village and you. I believe that if Minato is alive, you will inherit this Will."
Hearing Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioning his father, Naruto felt even more fierce for no reason! Does my face even mention my father? So now I know my father has sacrificed for the village? What were you doing then?! Where were you when I was bullied?!
The anger filled Naruto's head. As a result, he was not so lucid.
Speaking of things without going through the brain. "Okay-- the Will of Fire-- why do I see things completely different from the Will of Fire in your mouth?! Why did Kakashi's father die?! Why did Hinata's uncle die?! You keep on saying that the older generation sacrifices themselves to protect the new generation of the village. Why did I see that all the young generation die(the genocide)?! What do you have to say?!
Sarutobi Hiruzen's kind smile gradually collapsed. The tone and complexion were obviously sad. He was sad about the next thing. Maybe he couldn't stop it anymore: "Naruto, can you tell me... who told you these things? Why did you go specially? Follow these things? "
Naruto couldn't hear it, nor saw the change in Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude.
Burning in anger, he also wanted to dump him directly, "Don't care how I know!"
But he didn't wait for him to speak out the catharsis. Sarutobi Hiruzen's next words stopped Naruto as a whole! "Hey~" Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed, "Is it your big brother?"
That's right!
Sasuke discovered Naruto's anomaly. And the Anbu, who monitored Naruto's every move, how could they not find it?
The reason why Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't pursue it was that he really didn't want to reproduce the incident. Over the years, his own decisions and the actions of the others have caused countless tragedies in the village. He didn't know if it's right or wrong. He really didn't want to go on like this.
Naruto, who was resolute, made Hiruzen unable to turn this problem to a blind eye.
If he didn't want Naruto to be in trouble, he had to understand the cause of the matter and solve the problem as soon as possible.
Naruto was dumbfounded. Didn't know how to answer. He only opened his mouth and didn't understand what to say.
At this time, Shimura Danzo, together with Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu, happened to walk into the Hokage room. The moment when Sarutobi Hizen saw these friends, he knew exactly what was going on.
Sure enough, what Shimura Danzo said next did not meet his expectations: "Hiruzen, have nothing to say now? Or do you really want to ignore the safety of the village?"
Naruto looked at the group of people in a daze. He didn't know what they were talking about. Naruto saw Third-Kage old fogey's expression, a complicated look, and then turned his head to stop looking at him.
Immediately afterward, there were two masked ninjas who gave Naruto to supported.
Naruto reacted and then shouted: "Let go! What are you doing?! What do you want to do?"
