"Oh, oh, it's rare to see you, the kid, take the initiative to stand up and take over the troublesome errand of reporting the results......"

Pretending to be surprised and teasing, Kakashi, who already knew Naruto's personality well, knew from Naruto's "stubborn" words that the reason why Naruto did this must be that there was important information that had to be kept secret from the content of the report later. Then the words paused slightly, and he put his hands in his pockets, changing into a lazy appearance of happy leisure. While following Naruto's words, he responded in a natural tone.

"Then, let's go back and rest first, and I'll trouble you with the rest, Naruto."

Although Naruto's decision seemed a little abrupt. But in the final analysis, this journey of the country of waves is not the first mission that Class 7 has carried out. So much so that because Naruto occasionally took on a whim in the course of his past missions, he took on this "thankless" "tiring job", so that Kakashi, who was the leading teacher, opened his mouth and helped Naruto sing and cover up, and other people who didn't notice anything unusual naturally wouldn't ask too much.

Well...... To be precise, it should be said that in today's seventh class, even if someone senses that something is wrong, they won't interfere too much with Naruto. So much so that he simply pretended to be deaf and dumb, and deliberately ignored it.

After all, Kaoru, who would not have rebelled against Naruto, and felt more and more that his strength was insufficient because he couldn't save Shiro's life, was thinking about it at the moment only to return to Tsunade as soon as possible. In order to make up for the shortcomings of his own retention through further practice, he can avoid the embarrassing incident of being entrusted by Naruto to be in a helpless state at a critical moment.

And the other one knows Naruto's personality and can easily see through the greasy little fan......

No, because of the Uchiha Itachi who is his brother, he hasn't been with the small fan for too long. This little fan, as if he was born with an innate talent, filled the brother control attribute, only for a moment of curiosity, then focused all his attention on Itachi's body again. In other words, in the bottom of Xiao Tuanfan's heart now, there is only one pure and simple thought left - no matter what, he can't let the brother who has admitted it in person and has already been arranged for vacation make up any excuse to slip away from him!

As for the last person left in the seventh-class foursome......

Well, I don't have a deep relationship with Naruto, and it can even be said that because of the indifferent atmosphere I was affected by in the past, the discriminatory treatment of Naruto was adopted, which made the friendship between Sakura and Naruto the weakest link among the four. So much so that even Sakura is now, as arranged in the original plot, she has become a member of the seventh class. And as Naruto's hidden strength gradually passed, he understood it more and more clearly, enough to overturn all the old perceptions. But when facing Naruto, it is vague, and there will inevitably be some vague thoughts. It is even more impossible to recklessly disturb and question Naruto when he knows that everything Naruto does is unlikely to harm his partner.

In this way, Naruto got all the information he wanted from Itachi's mouth. It was just a casual polite remark, and after saying hello in public, I easily got the opportunity to act alone. And as soon as Kakashi's voice fell, his figure rose and fell a few times, and he quickly rushed to the direction of the Hokage's office building.

It's just that on the way back to the village, he has seen it with his own eyes, and he has gradually become accustomed to the village, because of the fact that the number of outsiders has increased significantly due to the upcoming middle ninja exam, so Naruto, who left in a hurry, did not notice it......

In Kakashi's natural response, a red-haired teenager was clearly sluggish.

"Naruto...... Could it be that it's Naruto's brother?! ”

Muttering thoughtfully to himself, the red-haired boy, who was obviously a little excited and nervous, hesitated for a moment, then chose to turn around and follow the direction of Kakashi and the others. Trying to find a familiar figure from the crowd that prompted him to set off from home willingly and come all the way to this Konoha Ninja Village. But after all, because Naruto left in a hurry at the first time, he pounced. So that after a long time of unsuccessful searching, he frowned slightly, and muttered to himself in confusion.

"It's strange, why didn't I see where Brother Naruto was...... Could it be that I misheard it just now? Or, is it just that in this Konoha Ninja Village, there happens to be someone with the same name as Naruto's brother? ”

It is obvious that the red-haired boy who has just arrived knows nothing about the "simple folk customs" of Konoha Ninja Village. So much so that after stepping into the Konoha Ninja Village, under the guidance of a series of positive images such as gentleness, friendliness, and enthusiasm that he saw with his own eyes, he didn't know how hated the name "Naruto Uzumaki" was in the eyes of ordinary people in Konoha Ninja Village!

It is precisely because of this that in the Konoha Ninja Village, let alone having the same name as Naruto, even if it is similar in pronunciation, it was because he was afraid that he would be involved with Naruto, so he changed his name early! In other words, the name Naruto Uzumaki, in the Konoha Ninja Village, is definitely the only one, and there is no other branch!

"Later, shall we go buy something to eat first, or shall we go straight back to the hotel?" Or...... Well? Wait, what about people?! ”

While the red-haired boy was muttering to himself, the figure of another black-clothed boy who was originally moving forward by himself finally discovered that something was wrong with the red-haired boy from the strangeness of the footsteps gradually subsided. Then he was shocked, and hurriedly turned around and looked around. Until he saw the figure of the red-haired boy, he was not far from him, and stood still in place. Fang Cai secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and muttered to himself. When the red-haired boy raised his head and resumed his pace, he immediately changed to a gentle and respectful tone and asked cautiously.

"Whew...... Fortunately, it's not out of control, it's not lost...... Ahem, how did you stop? Is there something wrong? ”

"No, nothing...... Maybe it's just me being delusional. ”

Maybe it's because the position I am in now is the other party's hometown. So much so that during the period of participating in the middle ninja exam, there was always the possibility of meeting, which made the red-haired boy's mood obviously better a lot. So much so that while facing the stunned gaze of the young man in black, he bent his eyes and smiled quite rarely. When he passed by the young man in black, he raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder lightly.

"Let's go, brother, let's go and meet my sister first, and then think about other ...... After all, she hates waiting for people the most, and if she waits for a long time, she will probably lose her temper again. ”

"Uh...... Ahh Good...... Good...... That's right......"

It wasn't until the red-haired boy walked past him that the black-clothed boy slowly recovered from his unbelievable stunned state. Then he turned around and looked at the red-haired boy's back, which had become much lighter and obviously in a good mood. As if he had seen a ghost, he stroked his chin and muttered to himself.

"Could it be that there is something wrong with my eyes? He was just in ...... Laugh? And it's not the name directly, it's the brother and sister who are called?! ”

And just as the red-haired boy's figure left, after saying hello to Sakura and the others, he planned to follow Itachi's side and go home with a small fan, but it seemed as if he sensed something. So much so that his figure paused slightly, and then he suddenly turned back and looked in the general direction where the red-haired boy had left.

"Huh? What's wrong, Sasuke? What's wrong? ”

"Hmm...... It's nothing! Let's go home, brother! You promised me that you would tell me in detail about the interesting things you encountered when you and Brother Zhishui went out on a mission! ”

In the face of his brother's concern and inquiry, he tried every means to probe, but he couldn't see a small fan, so he simply shook his head slightly, and continued to sprinkle coquettishly with a smile at the ferret. On the one hand, because of the strong sense of crisis that appeared inexplicably not long ago, he secretly muttered in his heart in confusion.

"It's weird, is it my delusion...... How did you feel about that ...... just now? It's as if someone has been eyeing something that belongs to me, and I always feel very uncomfortable? ”

Except, of course, Sasuke, who followed his brother and embarked on the road home. And after returning from a mission, Kakashi, who always goes to the cemetery to "visit" his companions as usual. The others, who were also disbanded on the spot, did not wait where they were.

Like Kari, in the course of the mission of the country of waves, he sensed the lack of his own strength. So much so that in comparison with each other, it has become the most obvious shortcoming of the seventh class. It can even be said unceremoniously that it is the seventh shift in the real sense of the crane tail after the cumbersome. Although Sakura didn't say anything, she didn't seem to know anything about the upcoming Zhongnin exam. But deep in my heart, I naturally won't be reconciled, so I will stay under the protection of others and be a useless little girl in a vase! Immediately, because Naruto knew that although Sakura did not have any advantage in the bloodstain boundary, she had a very good talent in medical ninjutsu, and in the short-term special training in the country of waves, she deliberately arranged for Kasura to guide Sakura one-on-one and carry out the basic training of becoming a medical ninja. So in this process, it was obvious that she tasted the sweetness, and the relationship with Xianglin, and gradually promoted to her best friend's Sakura, after hesitating, tried to ask Xianglin to let her guide her practice again.

Of course, thankfully, although Kaori had already decided to return to Tsunade as soon as possible and start further training. But coincidentally, the current Tsunade, because of the arrival of the wedding anniversary, and under the arrangement of Jiraiya, he left the village early with Jiraiya and enjoyed a short and sweet holiday for two. So much so that before Tsunade came back, Kaoru, who couldn't learn those more advanced medical ninjutsu alone for the time being, agreed to Sakura's request after a little thought. So much so that this move, which was unexpected, was decided on his own initiative in this logical way. And because Sakura has laid a solid foundation in this cultivation process. In the later days, Naruto introduced Sakura to Tsunade, and tried to get Tsunade to accept Sakura as a disciple, which really saved a lot of effort.

In other words, it seems that Naruto is not the only one who has gained a lot in the course of this mission in the country of waves. Even from the perspective of growth, there may be someone else who has benefited the most......

……

"Ahh......h

When Naruto said hello and went to the Hokage's office building alone to report the harvest of the trip to the three generations of Hokage. Obviously, as before, he greatly underestimated the impact of the incident of the middle ninja exam on the Konoha Ninja Village. So much so that when he arrived outside the office of the three generations of Hokage, he habitually opened the door a crack, and was about to step into it by himself, but it was through the crack in the door that he saw the mountains of official documents, and the figure of the three generations of Hokage who was sweating profusely under this thick official document, which made Naruto immediately stop his movements. He closed the door again without a sound, and left without a puff of smoke.

"Well, forget it, in that case, I still won't bother his old man...... Anyway, this information is not immediately available. Just write a report and hand it in, and wait until the third generation of Hokage's grandfather is free, and then slowly understand it. ”

Of course, after estimating the distance at this moment, Naruto, who was slowly walking out of the magnificent gate of the Hokage office building with his hands in his hands, did not step directly into the office and report to the three generations of Hokage as before. The reason for comparing the heart to the heart is certainly one of them. But more importantly, it's because ......

Naruto's desire to survive is at work!

You know, after perceiving Naruto's "precociousness", as well as that talent and strength that are far beyond ordinary people. The third generation of Hokage, who was already deeply guilty about Naruto's family, was driven by the idea of inheriting his father's business, and quietly made Naruto, who was still young at the time, a candidate for the successor of the fifth Hokage after Bo Feng Shuimen - that is, to officially take over the position of the fifth Hokage! So much so that in the subsequent process, whether it was handing over the root organization to Naruto to be in charge, or letting Naruto interact with the major families, it was a series of arrangements deliberately made by the three generations of Hokage in order to exercise Naruto's ability to act as the Hokage!

Because of this, even if he thinks about it with his toes, Naruto definitely wants it......

In this is buried by official business, busy in the eyes of the bones. If the three generations of Hokage know, he has ended his mission in the country of waves and returned to the village......

So, find the scapegoat...... No, the three generations of Hokage who found his successor will definitely push all these official documents to Naruto for processing on the grounds of old age and decrepitude!
