"Well, I'm a department store merchant who just came to Konoha, and it's a fate to meet you, and you're the first friend I've met in Konoha, so this bowl of ramen is a welcome gift. Xiao Xie couldn't help but smile as he looked at Naruto's shocked face.

"Friends...... Iruka sensei, he said he wanted to be friends with me, woo woo woo ......"

When Naruto heard Xiao Xie's words, he was slightly stunned at first, and then turned his head with a touched face, crying bitterly.

When Xiao Xie saw Naruto's appearance, the corners of his mouth couldn't help twitching, although Xiao Xie knew that Naruto had no friends since he was a child, but there was no need to be so moved!

"Naruto, you stupid, you need to thank you first!"

Seeing Naruto's sudden crying and weeping, Iruka knocked him on the head speechlessly, then got up and bowed to Xiao Xie and said, "I'm Umino Iruka, a teacher at the ninja school, he is my student, Naruto Uzumaki, it's the first time we meet, please give me a lot of advice!"

"Hello, my name is Xiao Xie, my department store is on the street not far from here, if you have time, you are welcome to come and play!" Xiao Xie couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

"Guest, your face is ready!"

After a while, three bowls of luxurious seafood ramen were prepared and served.

"Naruto, Iruka, I'll go first, you guys use it slowly!"

After settling the bill, Xiao Xie greeted Naruto and Iruka, took the packaged ramen, and turned to leave.

"It's great to have new friends today, isn't it? Naruto. Iruka looked at the back of Xiao Xie leaving, turned his head and smiled at Naruto and asked.

"Hmm!"

Naruto nodded vigorously as he ate his ramen.

……

After Xiao Xie returned to the small courtyard he rented, Xiao Xiao couldn't wait to fly out, holding the ramen that Xiao Xie had packed back, flew to the side, and feasted on it.

Xiao Xie shook his head amusefully when he saw Xiaoxiao, who looked like a full foodie.

"According to the conversation between Naruto and Iruka, it will only be a few days before Naruto's graduation assessment, and when Naruto steals the Book of Seals, it will be the best time for me to make a move. ”

Xiao Xie touched his chin and thought to himself.

Xiao Xie had devoured and refined a complete nine-tailed before, so Xiao Xie's current strength should be equivalent to a shadow-level powerhouse in the world of Naruto, and it is also a relatively high-level existence among shadow-level powerhouses.

With Xiao Xie's strength, he could go directly to the Hokage's office to rob the Book of Seals, but in that case, it would be tantamount to falling out with Konoha Village.

Xiao Xie didn't want to be so soon, so he had a stiff relationship with Konoha Village. Therefore, if Xiao Xie wants to check the contents of the Book of Seals, the best chance is to wait until Naruto steals the Book of Seals.

In normal times, there is a seal on the Book of Seals.

Even if Xiao Xie can use soul perception to perceive from a distance, but forcibly breaking the seal on it, he will be discovered by the three generations of Hokage as soon as possible, which is not the result that Xiao Xie wants to see.

And the reason why Naruto was able to steal the Book of Seals from the Hokage's office was due to the deliberate indulgence of the three generations of Hokage.

The purpose of the three generations of Hokage is actually to allow Naruto to learn the technique of multiple shadow clones.

Otherwise, Naruto, who is not even a ninja, is a student of the ninja school. How could it be possible to steal the Book of Seals from under the noses of the three generations of Hokage, really when the three generations of Hokage are vegetarians!

The third generation of Hokage is out of guilt for the fourth generation of Hokage, so he will indulge Naruto like this, otherwise the idea of being someone else and daring to fight the Book of Seals would have been whipped to death by the third generation Hokage with a stick.

……

Over the next few days, Naruto also ran to Xiao Xie's department store.

After all, Xiao Xie can be regarded as Naruto's first friend so far, so he has a lot of respect for Xiao Xie and calls Xiao Xie Big Brother Xiao Xie one by one.

Since Naruto is the human pillar force of the Nine-Tails, Xiao Xie, who suddenly appeared next to Naruto, naturally fell into the observation of the three generations of Hokage.

However, under Xiao Xie's deliberate concealment, the three generations of Hokage did not find anything wrong with Xiao Xie, and in the end, it was gone.

The three generations of Hokage finally thought that Xiao Xie had just come to Konoha Village, so he didn't know Naruto's things, so he would be friends with Naruto so easily.

"Brother Xiao Xie, tomorrow we will have a ninja graduation exam, and I will definitely pass the exam!"

In the Ichiraku Noodle Restaurant, Naruto said to Xiao Xie with some excitement while eating ramen.

"Then you have to come on! If you succeed in becoming a ninja, I'll give you a mysterious gift!" Xiao Xie heard Naruto's words, a smile flashed in his eyes, and then he said to Naruto with some mystery.

"Really, what kind of gift?" Naruto asked, turning his head to look at Xiao Xie with an expectant expression.

Xiao Xie patted Naruto's head and said with a smile, "It's all said to be a mysterious gift, of course it's going to be kept secret." ”

"But I'll definitely pass the exam, Brother Xiao Xie, you can get the gift ready!"

When Naruto heard this, he was a little disappointed at first, but after a while, he shouted at Xiao Xie with confidence on his face.

Xiao Xie shook his head a little amusefully when he saw Naruto's appearance, Naruto is such a hot-blooded fool. If it weren't for such a character, I'm afraid he would have blackened a long time ago, and then take revenge on Konoha Village.

But it's precisely because of Naruto's character that he will move so many people!

Although most people are saying that if they were Naruto, I am afraid that Konoha would have been destroyed a long time ago, but if Naruto really became a person like Nagato and Obito, I am afraid that there would not be so many people who like Naruto.

"Giggle......

The iris on the side, seeing this scene, couldn't help but chuckle.

In Calamus's eyes, in fact, Naruto was just like her younger brother, and she was sincerely happy for Naruto when she saw that Naruto was able to make a friend like Xiao Xie.

……

The next day, just like in the anime, the item of the graduation exam was still Naruto's worst doppelganger, and Naruto still failed to pass the graduation exam.

But unlike in the anime, Naruto is not sad now that he didn't pass the exam. It's because he feels that he has no face and goes to face Xiao Xie.

After all, he made an agreement with Xiao Xie yesterday that he would definitely pass the graduation exam, but now he is dishonest, where does he still have the face to see Xiao Xie?

Naruto, who was sitting alone on the swing, had a face full of loss, if he had known that this would happen, he would have practiced the doppelganger technique well, and he wouldn't have to be so annoyed as he is now.

On the other side, after Mizuki saw Naruto's lonely figure, a sinister smile rose on the corner of his mouth and walked towards Naruto.
