Chapter 111 Homecoming! Everyone, Uzumaki Naruto is back!!

Hearing Pain's words, Kanon was a little surprised. She had met Gaara during the Chunin Exam and naturally knew his strength.

As if sensing what Kanon was thinking, Deidara asked in confusion: "Why, do you know each other?"

"Yeah, I met him once during the Chunin Exam."

"How's your strength?" Deidara's expression showed a little anticipation.

"I don't know. I didn't fight him, but... I didn't expect him to become the Kazekage so quickly."

"No matter what, he is the target of this mission. Hanane, you won't..." Scorpion was looking at Hanane with a serious look at this moment.

"Don't worry, Gaara and I don't have much in common."

When Payne saw that Kanon was fine, he nodded slightly and spoke softly to the three of them.

"I'll leave it to you."

"Leave it to us!" Deidara shouted confidently.

......

Some time passed again.

Konoha Village.

The light shines through the layers of leaves and shines on the paths of Konoha Village, forming mottled light and shadows.

The ninjas moved through the village, greeting each other with relaxed smiles on their faces.

In the center of the village, the Hokage Rock stands tall, with statues of successive Hokage carved on it, who are the guardians and symbols of Konoha Village.

Hokage's office.

Iruka, Tsunade and Shizune looked at Konoha outside the window. The peaceful scene made them feel relieved.

Since Kanon's last attack, Konoha Village has never been in danger again.

Watching Konohamaru and the others running around the village to complete their missions, Tsunade crossed her arms and smiled, "Rather than calling him the Seventh Hokage, it would be better to say that he is Naruto the Second."

Iruka looked at the scene and thought of Naruto as well, muttering softly.

"Naruto, is your training going well?"

"I must become stronger! And then take back Kanon and Sasuke!"

"He said this before embarking on a formal training journey with Master Jiraiya."

“It’s been a long time…”

Shizune smiled and nodded.

"Yeah, it's time to go back to the village."

"It will be troublesome if you don't come back." Tsunade's expression was serious.

"Because there will be a large-scale action soon."

"According to eyewitnesses, it seems that Kanon was seen joining Akatsuki, but the information is not credible."

"I'm afraid that Naruto will be Kanon's target by then... In that case... will he really attack Kanon?" Tsunade said this, and Iruka's expression around her also changed from smiling to silence.

Although Naruto is his student, so is Kanon. He doesn't know much about the inside story. He only knows that it was Konoha that forced her away.

But it was the village's choice, what could he do?

As Iruka thought about this, he also remembered the Uchiha girl who was considerate and often invited him back for dinner.

At this moment, from outside Konoha Village, Jiraiya and the grown-up Naruto appeared at the door.

Gang Zitie and Shen Yue Chuyun also showed excitement when they saw the two of them.

"Hey, could that be..."

"Ah! There's no doubt about it, it's him."

On the way to Konoha Village, Sakura was stopped by Konohamaru.

"Sister Sakura!"

"Ah, it's Konohamaru." Sakura turned around and smiled at him.

"where are you going?"

"The main gate of the village. Lady Tsunade asked me to go and get the pass record from this morning."

On the other side, Jiraiya and Naruto were walking one after the other.

"I haven't been back for more than three years,"

"Yeah..." Jiraiya's lazy voice came out. Naruto beside him smiled and started chatting with Jiraiya.

When they got the passes, Kamijutsuki Izumo and Gang Zitetsu told Sakura and the others to go to the town, as they might encounter interesting things.

"Could it be?" Sakura thought.

The moment Sakura turned around, Naruto put his worn-out bag on the ground at the telephone pole where Kanon had stood, and took a few steps towards it.

I jogged all the way to the top of the electric pole.

Jiraiya below showed a relieved smile.

"Hehe, excited."

Naruto stood on the electric pole with his arms stretched out, overlooking the entire Konoha Village.

"I miss it so much! Although there is one place that has changed a lot, the rest of the places have not changed at all!" Naruto took a deep breath.

"Everyone, Uzumaki Naruto is back!!!"

Looking at the village where he had lived since he was born, Naruto felt a warm feeling in his heart. Then he looked at the coldness and loneliness of the Uchiha clan, and he sighed slightly.

Then he turned around and looked at the cliff where Hanane and he often sat. It was covered with weeds and no one had trimmed it for a long time.

"Time to go clear the grass there," Naruto chuckled.

“I miss everything so much.”

"Granny Tsunade's Hokage Rock is also ready."

Just as Naruto was still smiling and looking at the Hokage Rock in the distance, Sakura's voice came from below.

"Naruto! Is that Naruto?!"

Naruto turned around and looked down.

"When did you come back, Naruto!"

"Just got back, it's so big!" Naruto jumped down with a smile.

"Long time no see, Sakura!"

Looking at Naruto's growth, Sakura was also filled with emotion. Suddenly, Sakura noticed Naruto's height.

"You are already taller than me..."

If you hadn't mentioned it, you wouldn't have known. Now that it was mentioned, Naruto nodded slightly.

“It’s true.”

Sakura said, looking towards the present Naruto.

Unconsciously, he had become much stronger. Thinking of this, Sakura's face turned slightly red.

"So, am I a little more feminine now?"

Naruto smiled and praised Sakura, "That's not the case. You haven't changed at all."

Hearing this answer, Sakura's expression suddenly darkened, and she turned her head away and stopped talking to Naruto.

"You don't understand women's hearts at all." Jiraiya stood beside Naruto and sighed slightly.

Then Naruto and Konohamaru performed seduction techniques, and after being beaten into pig heads by Sakura, they brought everyone to the Hokage's office.

"It's been a long time, you two."

"The training should have produced some results," Tsunade said with a smile.

"Do you think we will come back without any growth?" Jiraiya looked directly into Tsunade's eyes, full of confidence.

"Granny Tsunade, when I came back, I found that an area seemed to have been rebuilt. What's going on?" Naruto asked.

After these words were spoken, everyone's expressions except Jiraiya became solemn, and some even fell silent.

Naruto instantly caught the solemn atmosphere.

"What's wrong?!" Naruto and Jiraiya were both confused.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door behind me.

"Come in!"

From the back, Shikamaru and Temari walked in.

"Shikamaru, Temari, look who's here!" Sakura waved to Shikamaru and Temari excitedly.

"Oh?" Shikamaru looked at Naruto in confusion, and his expression was also stunned.

"Naruto...Wow! Isn't this Naruto?!"

"Shikamaru!" Naruto looked at Shikamaru in surprise. They were good friends.

Temari also sighed: "Is this kid... the short guy from before?"

"You're back." Shikamaru waved at Naruto.

"Oh, I came back this morning."

"It seems that you are less silly now. How should I put it? It seems that you have changed a lot, right?"

Naruto listened and realized that the topic had been changed, so he quickly turned his head.

"Mother-in-law, you haven't told me what happened in that area!"

Facing Naruto's questioning, Tsunade's expression became more and more solemn. She really didn't want to tell Naruto that Kanon had returned to the village for revenge.

But it couldn't be hidden after all. Just as Tsunade spoke, Kakashi stood up from outside the window.

"Let me tell you."

A familiar voice was heard, causing Naruto to also show an excited expression.

"Kakashi-sensei!"

"Naruto, you've grown a lot taller!"

Naruto climbed out of the window and said to Kakashi with great longing: "Teacher, you haven't changed at all!"

As he said that, Naruto handed the Intimate Paradise novel to Kakashi.

"This is the latest work in the intimacy series after three years, although I think this book is extremely boring."

"But teacher, you like it, right?"

Jiraiya, who heard this, was also very dissatisfied and complained softly: "Idiot, how can you and Kanon, little brats, understand the wonderful charm of it!"

"This is a super rare item that has not yet been officially released!"

Just when Kakashi was about to be absorbed in the book, Tsunade stopped him.

"Kakashi, let's stop reminiscing about the past. Please explain the situation to Naruto."

"Well... this may be the most appropriate thing for me to say..."
