Chapter 174: The Protagonists
"Brother, hurry up, we're going to be late!" Ino pulled Keiko Yamanaka to dress herself early in the morning, and asked Kazuya Echizen to tie her braids, and she felt very satisfied when she saw herself beautiful in the mirror, and she couldn't wait to go to school, so she began to urge Kazuya Yamanaka and Keiko Yamanaka to take her to the ninja school.
"Okay, okay, don't worry, we won't let you be late, don't worry!" Echizen Kazuya was eating a delicious breakfast while looking at the impatient Ino with a smile.
Kazuya Echizen also really wants to see the protagonists in the original work, especially for the few protagonists such as Sasuke Uchiha and Hinata Hinata who haven't been seen yet.
In the end, he couldn't stand Ino's urging, and Keiko Yamanaka and Kazuya Echizen had to take her out early, and Haiichi Yamanaka was still the same as when Echizen Kazuya started school, and he needed to wait until the opening ceremony was about to start before he could come to watch the ceremony.
"Itachi-senpai, did you accompany your brother to the opening ceremony?" After arriving at the ninja school, Echizen Kazuya saw Uchiha Itachi with Sasuke Uchiha on his back at a glance, and greeted him with a smile.
"Yes, Kazuya you sent Ino over, the two of them may still be in the same class!" Speaking of Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Itachi smiled rarely, and said gently.
"Well, Ino is also starting school this year, so of course I want to come to the opening ceremony as a family member." Kazuya Echizen knew that Ino and Sasuke would definitely be in the same class, not only because they had watched anime, but also because it was the unspoken rule of Konoha.
"Hello, Ino, I'm Itachi Uchiha, and this is my younger brother Sasuke Uchiha," Itachi Uchiha introduced himself in a calm tone.
"I know you, I saw you during the Shinobi exam!" Ino had no stage fright in the face of Uchiha Itachi, and looked at Uchiha Itachi and said crisply, "Is his name Sasuke?" It's a shame to ask my brother to carry it! ”
Sasuke's face turned red when he heard this, and he hurriedly whispered in Uchiha Itachi's ear: "Brother, let me down, I'll go by myself!" ”
"Ino can't be rude," Echizen Kazuya rubbed Ino's little head, and said to Uchiha Itachi with a smile: "I'm sorry, Itachi senior, the little girl just wanted me to carry it, and I refused, so I said this with some unhappiness." ”
"So brother, you're too bad, you look at other people's brothers and you're willing to carry them, and you even say that I've grown up, hum!" Ino wrinkled his nose and hummed dissatisfiedly, with a playful and cute look.
Uchiha Itachi looked at Ino and smiled slightly at Echizen Kazuya's coquettish appearance, took Sasuke's hand who had just gotten off his back and said with a smile: "It's okay, Ino is very cute!" ”
"Then let's go over there first, and Weachi will see you next time." After chatting with Uchiha Itachi for a while, Kazuya Echizen took his leave and returned to Keiko Yamanaka.
"Brother, who is he?" Uchiha Sasuke looked at the back of Echizen Kazuya leaving and asked curiously, it was the first time he had seen Uchiha Itachi and people outside the Uchiha family talking and laughing, and the two pillars were probably jealous.
"His name is Echizen Kazuya, and he's a real genius ninja, maybe better than me!" Uchiha Itachi looked at Echizen Kazuya's back and whispered.
"How is it possible, he doesn't look as big as your brother, how can he be stronger than you!" As soon as he heard Uchiha Itachi's words, Sasuke said loudly unconvinced.
Uchiha Itachi didn't answer Sasuke's words, and casually put his arm on Sasuke's shoulder, not knowing what he was thinking.
And Uchiha Sasuke, who didn't get an answer, looked very unhappy, but because of Uchiha Itachi's words, Echizen Kazuya left a deep impression in his heart.
"Isn't that guy a demon fox? Why would Hokage-sama agree to his admission? ”
"This kind of guy should be kicked out of the village, in case he becomes a demon fox again, won't he hurt us again?"
"You must stay away from him, it will be bad luck to get close to that demon fox!" A parent pointed to a skinny boy with blond hair standing alone in a corner, and said to his child in a fierce voice.
"Brother, why do they say he's a demon fox?" Ino looked at the hideous faces of the people around him and asked timidly.
Of course, Echizen Kazuya also discovered Naruto Uzumaki, and in the year that he became the protector of the dark department, Echizen Kazuya followed Sarutobi to meet Naruto a few times, and knew Sarutobi's attitude towards Naruto, so naturally he didn't have to show a deep hatred for Naruto like an ordinary civilian who was kept in the dark.
"Probably because of his beard, you don't have to worry about Ino, just see him as an ordinary child, it's okay to be friends, don't be afraid of him, you know?" In order not to surprise the people around him, Echizen Kazuya whispered in Ino's ear.
"Okay, brother, I see!" Hearing Echizen Kazuya's words, Ino looked at the strange beard on Naruto's face, felt some sympathy for the poor Naruto, and said with a smile.
After a while, Akido Dingji, Nara Shikamaru and Inuzuka came to the ninja school one after another under the leadership of their respective mothers, Inuzuka Paw and the others quickly chatted with Keiko Yamanaka, and the three little ones gathered around Echizen Kazuya.
"Boss, you're here too, we're going to start school!" Inuzuka said happily as soon as he saw Echizen Kazuya.
Echizen Kazuya is very familiar with several people, they are now also members of the Children's Legion, and they often play and practice together in the secret base, although Echizen Kazuya now has a rare opportunity to go to the secret base, but the legend of the Legion boss is still circulating.
"You guys come on, especially you, Shikamaru, don't waste your talent, wisdom alone can't solve everything," Echizen Kazuya reminded solemnly when he saw that Nara Shikamaru was still lazy.
"Boss Anla, I'll do my best." Hearing Echizen Kazuya's words, Nara Shikamaru still looked completely unmotivated and said copingly.
Echizen Kazuya looked at Shikamaru's appearance and sighed weakly, this guy seems to be unable to change without experiencing the powerlessness of Asma's death in the original work, and he gave up his intention to persuade if he said it in vain.
"Alright, the opening ceremony is about to start, you guys hurry over!" Echizen Kazuya saw that the time was almost up, and said with a smile.
"Well, then we'll pass, goodbye boss!" Inuzuka said happily, looking looking forward to entering school now, but Echizen Kazuya knew that he would soon be one of the four truants.
"Goodbye, brother, I'm over too!" Ino said goodbye happily, and jumped up and down behind a few people towards the square.
Echizen Kazuya looked at Naruto and found that everyone avoided him, the crowd always dispersed in a hurry where he walked past, as if he was avoiding the plague, and when he stood in the square, his side was empty, no child wanted to approach him, and everyone had undisguised disgust in their eyes, which was really sad enough.
