Chapter 7: Fourth Generation, what do you think?
"You're not welcome here, get out of here!"
"Unlucky, I saw something disgusting early in the morning..."
In the voice of the shopkeeper cursing, Uzumaki Naruto struggled to hold on to the door frame, with a fawning smile on his face like crying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just want to buy a mask, I can pay you, double... no , three times is fine!”
As if to prove his words, Naruto freed up a hand, took out a handful of change from his pocket, and looked at the man in front of him with a pleading look on his face.
But the shop owner didn't even look at it.
"I told you I won't sell it to you, but I'll double it... Huh, who dares to accept the demon fox's money?"
As he spoke, the shopkeeper pushed hard, causing Naruto to stumble and fall to the ground, and the change in his hand flew out, as if a piece of glass was shattered. A few coins even rolled down into the sewer and disappeared without a trace along with the sound of water ripples.
Several passers-by around him avoided him, as if they were afraid of being bumped into by Naruto.
"It's this kid again...why isn't he dead yet?"
"Hmph, the murderer who killed the Yondaime... hurry up, hurry up, good boy, don't get close to him, you hear me, it will bring bad luck to the family!"
"I really don't know why Hokage-sama still lets him stay in the village..."
A series of cold and hateful eyes fell on Naruto. The little figure sat there blankly, with his head lowered, as if he had done something wrong. His heart seemed to be squeezed tightly, and the emotion called grievance spread in his heart, but he did not dare to cry.
Because past experience told him that that would only attract more ridicule.
[Unnamed: Yondaime, what do you think? 】
When Naruto was kicked out of the store, Uchiha Hikaru started the group live broadcast.
So the scenes of those few minutes just now were witnessed by several people in the chat group.
Bulma couldn't help it first.
[Bulma: Wow, these people are so disgusting. How can you use such vicious words to scold a child? Aren't you afraid of being punished by God? 】
[Buma: And he is Mr. Yongdaimei’s child? Isn’t Yong Daimei a hero who sacrificed his life to protect the village? Why are his descendants treated like this? 】
As the most laid-back and most curious person in the chat group, Bulma had chatted a lot with Namikaze Minato in the past two days and knew a little bit about the life of the Fourth Hokage. So she felt quite puzzling about what Naruto was going through at the moment.
Tanjiro, who has a gentle personality, can't stand it either.
[Tietouwa: No matter what the reason is, treating a child like this is too much! 】
Only Minato Namikaze remained silent until Uchiha Hikari asked him about his "feelings", and he seemed to react with a bit of mixed feelings:
[Yongdaimei: I...]
[Nagadaimei: I know that when a jinchuriki lives in a village, he will definitely be discriminated against by some people. Kushina was like this back then... But Naruto is still so young, how can these villagers...]
[Yongdaimei: Miss Guang, could you please help persuade them? 】
"..."
Uchiha Hikari exhaled slightly, then raised his steps.
He walked straight through the group of indifferent onlookers and arrived at the other side of the long street.
Naruto noticed her approach and subconsciously stepped back before he could get up. A pair of small hands that were blown red by the cold wind were pressed to the ground, with a small pool of blood stained underneath - this was the wound he had scratched on the door frame of the shop when he was pushed away by the shop owner, and there was no sign of healing at this moment.
Uchiha Hikari leaned forward slightly and stretched out a hand to the little yellow hair in front of him: "Do you need help?"
"!"
Uzumaki Naruto suddenly raised his head, his blue eyes widened with an expression of disbelief on his face.
The spectators nearby were stunned for a short time and then exploded.
"Little girl, don't get close to that kid, he is a demon fox! He will bring bad luck to people!"
"...Hmph, I don't think she is a serious child. She wears such strange clothes and helps that monster in front of so many people. She is probably an orphan with no one to teach her!"
"Sigh! Monster!"
A half-grown child suddenly spat here.
He was already standing very close, but with this spit, the spit flew directly to the hem of Uchiha Hikari's skirt. The moment he was about to be splashed, Uchiha Hikaru took a step aside, glanced at his feet with disgust, then raised his head and looked at the child.
The latter was startled by her gaze, but because her parents were standing beside her, her attitude was very strong: "What are you looking at? This monster is a scourge in the village. Business will not be good in any shop where you go, how dare you Go help him...get out of here, or I'll ask someone to beat you up!"
"……Ah."
Uchiha Hikari suddenly smiled.
The next moment, her figure flickered, and before the half-grown child could react, she rushed up to him and slapped him!
Just hearing a "pop" sound, the half-grown child seemed to have been punched hard, and flew out with his feet. After landing, he rolled several times, opened his mouth, and spat out a mouthful of blood with several teeth. , the face swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Smelly girl, how dare you hit me..."
The father of the half-grown child was stunned for a few seconds before he realized what he was doing and immediately cursed.
but……
The scolding soon got stuck in his throat.
Killing intent.
The murderous intent was revealed in Uchiha Guang's cold eyes. For a moment, the father of the half-grown child felt like he was in a sea of blood and corpses. He trembled unconsciously and almost knelt down to beg for mercy.
The two Anbu hiding in the dark also felt the murderous intent.
The two looked at each other, jumped out of their hiding place, and shouted nervously: "Stop!"
"This is Konoha Village. If you kill someone here, no matter who it is, you will be thrown into prison!"
"Oh?"
Uchiha Guang tilted his head and moved his eyes to the two Anbu: "When they bullied the children here, you were indifferent. I just punished them slightly, and you jumped out... What, do you think I look easier to bully than them? Or... Are you actually looking forward to seeing this child being bullied?"
"..."
The Anbu who was hit on the heart paused and argued: "This is just a dispute between children. You hit too hard..."
"And."
Uchiha Guang didn't mean to pick up their words. As his momentum rose, his black hair rose slightly: "Who gave you the courage to give orders in front of me?!"
"!!"
...
Hokage Building
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who had just finished processing a batch of documents, picked up his pipe, took a few deep puffs, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
