"Then again, Naruto...... You kid, you're a little too capable, aren't you?! ”

After making up his mind and giving Tsunade and the three generations of Hokage, the master and apprentice duo who have reunited after a long absence, have some time to spend time alone with each other. Fugaku, who also wanted to ask a question with a stomach, naturally quietly withdrew from the Hokage's office under Naruto's gesture. And just now he carefully closed the door of the Hokage's office, slightly isolating the impact of the noisy outside sound on the two Tsunade master and apprentice. And under Naruto's familiar leadership, he came to the waiting room not far from the Hokage's office, and waited patiently for the conversation between the master and apprentice to end. Fugaku turned his head to look at Naruto, and at the same time, he couldn't wait to find Naruto to "settle accounts".

"Huh? Overcompetent...... But I didn't do anything, did I? ”

"Haven't done anything yet? You wait, let me do the math...... Let's not talk about what you did...... Just the last time you went out, you not only had a relationship with Zhu Li, the current person of Shayin Village. He also brought back the remnants of the Uzumaki Clan...... This time it's even more exaggerated.,I was able to bring Tsunade-sama, who had disappeared for many years, directly back to the village!? ”

Under Naruto's innocent gaze, Fugaku snapped his fingers and chattered endlessly, counting Naruto's "great achievements" one by one according to the information he had. The more he spoke, the more frightened he became, and the eyes that looked at Naruto became more and more incredulous.

"Originally, we were still worried about whether your life would be in danger when we met Orochimaru...... As a result, your kid is fine, not only did he not suffer the slightest injury, but he also brought back such a big surprise...... Could it be that the ability to create miracles is an innate talent of yours, right?! ”

As an elite ninja who has survived the Third Ninja World War...... Compared to today, the original famous Konoha Sannin has been regarded as an ethereal legend, and even a new generation who have never heard of it. Fuyue, who once admired the glory period of the Konoha Sanninja and witnessed the disintegration of the Konoha Sanninja, was naturally able to clearly understand that just the stay or departure of these three people was enough to increase or decrease the deterrent power of the entire Konoha Ninja Village, and what a huge impact it would bring!

Because of this, even now, the three generations of Hokage, who are immersed in the joy of reunion, have not yet had time to give the order to make the news of Tsunade's return public. But it also made it easy for Fugaku to imagine that when the third generation Hokage personally announced the news. For the Konoha Ninja Village, which is already in rapid development, it will definitely be like a shot in the arm, and the morale will be unprecedentedly high! Even because of the return of Tsunade, it has a complementary effect on the lack of combat power of the high-level of Konoha Ninja Village. It is not impossible for the Konoha Ninja Village to completely recover to the hegemonic posture of the head of the five ninja villages in a short period of time from the current situation of the loss of the Nine-Tails Rebellion a few years ago, which caused a great loss of vitality and can only be compromised!

If this kind of bright prospect that is enough to make people smile is placed more than a year ago, that is, because of the discord sowed by the group, and he is always agonizing, whether he should raise a rebellion under the growing resentment and anger of the clansmen, in order to seek a glimmer of life. For Fuyue, who doesn't have any extra thoughts to think about other matters, even if he is daydreaming, he will never dream of a miracle picture! So much so that even now, I have slowly accepted how good this seemingly thin and weak little guy in front of me is at creating miracles in the case of "unpredictable prophets". But under the impact of surprises again and again, it inevitably made Fu Yue's heart feel unreal in a trance.

Fortunately, Naruto had already expected Fugaku's words of inquiry from the moment Naruto made up his mind to use Jiraiya as a bargaining chip to persuade Tsunade to return to the village obediently......

After all, perhaps in this life, everyone will be in a state of ignorance about the many seemingly inexplicable choices made by Naruto, and how drastically they can change their future fate...... But one of the members of the Konoha Sanninja, who had been away from the village for many years, was persuaded to return to the village again, a feat that even the three generations of Hokage himself could not do. But from Tsunade's former great exploits and the obvious strength, it is easy to imagine how great benefits and benefits Tsunade's return will bring to the entire Konoha Ninja Village. So much so that in a sense, Tsunade's return to the Konoha Ninja Village is not only an impact on everyone, but also on those forces who secretly covet the Konoha Ninja Village. It is comparable to, or even far surpasses, the results of Naruto's action to personally go deep into the root organization and completely eradicate this cancer!

In this way, an obvious ending naturally came to Naruto's mind - that is, without any explanation, he just sat down and confirmed the credit. Naruto, who was able to perform such an astonishing feat with just the body of a stinky child, would definitely attract the curiosity and attention of all forces in the same way that Naruto least wanted to see!

In that case, Naruto didn't think that his true identity as a Nine-Tailed Human Pillar Force and the son of the Fourth Hokage could be easily concealed - after all, anyone with a little brain should be able to reincarnate Naruto from Naruto as a Nine-Tailed Demon Fox by default, which clearly hinted at the identity of the Human Pillar Force. There is something similar to the appearance of the four generations of Hokage, and the surname "Uzumaki", which is obviously inconsistent with the golden hair color, seems too inconsistent, right?

And at that time, Naruto is expected to be in a state of constant vigilance like Iairo in the original book, so as not to die in the assassination of enemy forces, even Uchiha Obito. So much so that he continued to keep a low profile and quietly and slowly develop his cultivation...... I'm afraid that letting go of all the burdens and sleeping peacefully and waking up naturally will become a luxury in Naruto's daily life.

Of course...... If it was like the villagers of Konoha Ninja Village, not only did they not have any gratitude, but they believed the rumors and regarded Naruto as the reincarnation of the nine-tailed demon fox. And in this setting, for fear that Naruto would not go out of control again, he sneered at the stupid words that never stopped......

Well, Naruto can only say that the general IQ level of the natives of the Naruto world is silly and cute, to put it mildly. To put it bluntly, I'm afraid I'm stupid to make a new world......

It is precisely because of this that on the way back to the village, Naruto has no energy to complain and complain in addition to coping with it. and chatting with each other and brushing the pharmacist's pocket. The rest of the time was spent racking my brains, trying to come up with a more plausible explanation—or rather, a "shield" that was convincing enough to be believed.

And this candidate...... Naturally, it's impartial.,It just happened to fall on Jiraiya, who just hugged the beauty and was promoted to the identity of Tsunade's lover!

It is said that if you have more debts, you don't have to worry, and if you have more lice, you don't have to bite......

In Naruto's opinion, anyway, since Lai Ye has been carrying enough "pots" for Naruto for more than a year...... One or two more, it's still this kind of "pot" that is beneficial and harmless, and it is definitely happy for Jiraiya, who spoils Naruto unconditionally!

"Well, making miracles or something, where is that exaggerated...... It's just a simple coincidence, or rather, I'm a little lucky. ”

Thinking of this, Naruto tilted his head slightly, and cast a meaningful look at Jiraiya, who was standing beside him with a smiling face, waiting to see a good show. While blinking his eyes and shrugging his shoulders with an effort to hold back a smile, he continued with an innocent face.

"After all, in this incident, whether it was fighting off Orochimaru, saving my life, or successfully bringing Grandma Tsunade back to the village...... Behind every one of these things, the person who has the greatest credit is not me, but someone else...... You're right? Since-come-also-master-master——! ”

"Gaga...... Ha?! ”

Under Naruto's gaze, Jiraiya, who felt chills all over his body, suddenly guessed from this rather familiar premonition that the little guy in front of him was definitely playing some kind of ghost idea on his body again. And at the same time that the smile on his face suddenly stiffened, as soon as Naruto's words fell, Jiraiya tried to explain something in a panic under the painful lesson of the previous experience.

"Hey, you, you, you wait, Naruto...... What does this have to do with me......"

"Of course it has something to do with you, Grandpa Jiraiya~"

It's a pity that after the end of the extermination of Tuanzang, all the credit was put on Zilai's head. has already made up his mind to let Jiraiya, who has the highest status and voice among the people on this trip, play the role of a "hero" again, naturally he will not give Jiraiya a chance to defend himself. And then the milk voice and milk called, revealing a harmless innocent and simple smile of humans and animals.

"Na, don't worry, Grandpa Jiraiya...... I know it in my heart! It's all thanks to you! I will never rob you~"

"It's not...... This...... How did this become my credit?! ”

Naruto's bold words undoubtedly shattered the original idea in Jiraiya's heart, that Naruto should be able to take the opportunity of Tsunade's return to completely get rid of the identity of the "reincarnation of the nine-tailed demon fox" who was spurned and cursed by the villagers, and naturally restore the glory of the son of a hero that belonged to him, and no longer be able to pretend to be cool and handsome. So much so that he was dumbfounded, because he really couldn't understand why Naruto, who obviously didn't shake the M attribute, would be so persistent in being content with the status quo, and couldn't help but speak again, trying to say something more.

"You...... Ah, yes, yes, yes, I did it. ”

And in the next second, there was a whisper from the demon in Jiraiya's ears, which only he could hear. So much so that he didn't say anything to defend himself, but he changed his words and admitted it quickly and decisively.

For no other reason, Naruto, who was just pretending to be innocent and innocent, was bouncing up to Jiraiya and jumping up a little harder. Like a koala, he hooked Jiraiya's neck and hung on Jiraiya's body like this. Quietly deflected his head a little, attached it to Jiraiya's ear, and said this word by word......

"If you don't take the credit for me...... I'm going to tell Grandma Tsunade that in the past year or so, you, Grandpa Jiraiya, have peeped at the women's bathhouse a total of times~"

Well, obviously, these "great achievements" of Jiraiya, before holding hands with Tsunade in a complete showdown, can still treat Tsunade dare not pierce the psychological shadow of the last layer of window paper, as if he existed like a gold medal to avoid death, and he didn't have to worry about not responding to Jiraiya's feelings, so that Tsunade, who was not justifiable, would care too much about this......

But for now, Tsunade has confronted his true heart and tacitly acquiesced to the status of Jiraiya's girlfriend...... Tsunade, even Orochimaru, who is regarded as a pure good brother by Jirai, can be jealous and fly up!

In this way, even if you think about it with your toes, you can definitely imagine it...... Once Naruto actually did that? Not to mention that the ribs are broken, can you leave a small life and live to see the sun the next day, for Jiraiya, I'm afraid it will be an unknown, right?!

In other words, under Naruto's initiative to give credit, no matter how you look at it, it is a beneficial and harmless "back to the pot" choice. Compared with the ending of Tsunade, who was jealous, he was beaten to the death...... Which is better or worse, for Jilai, who has a strong desire to survive, it is obviously easy to distinguish.

"Is it a credit to Jiraiya...... Well, it's probably you, little guy, who is playing some kind of heels. ”

Fortunately, to Jiraiya's relief, Fugaku's understanding of Naruto's character is also deep enough. So much so that even Jirai changed his words without tears under Naruto's intimidation and threat. But Fu Yue still sensed something was wrong from the strange words that were somewhat incoherent. Immediately, in the bottom of his heart, he didn't believe a single cent of Naruto's perfunctory answer, but he didn't ask too much. Instead, he raised his eyebrows a little and asked another question that he cared about.

"Then again...... Naruto, coming back this time, you shouldn't be sneaking out of the village again, right? ”

Obviously, even after witnessing it with his own eyes, Naruto had returned safe and sound. Fugaku was still haunted by the experience of being helpless in the contact room, silently waiting for Naruto's further news......

After all, that feeling, for Fuyue, was like returning to the desperate state of being able to provide the slightest assistance to his best friend when he was out of control, knowing that his best friend was in danger......

And that indescribable complex taste, Fu Yue will never want to experience it for the third time in his life!
