Chapter 172 Undercurrent (4500) (1/2)

After about a few minutes, Naruto finally walked back slowly and leisurely, holding a round metal box in his hand.

"Brother Qianhe, I'm back."

Qianhe looked at Naruto holding the ointment in his hand and said with a smile: "Let's go."

Afterwards, the two of them walked towards Naruto's house together.

Walking into Naruto's apartment building, I saw the room door open at the corner.

When Naruto saw this, before he went upstairs, he stood upstairs and shouted:

"Grandpa! Are you here?"

At this time, an old man wearing home clothes and holding a cigarette holder walked out of the room. He was the Third Hokage.

The third generation saw that Qianhe's expression did not change, and then he smiled at Naruto and said: "Little Naruto, you are back."

When Qianhe saw Sandai's smile, he frowned slightly, then nodded towards Sandai, and left with a teleportation technique.

Little Naruto waved his hand towards the third generation and said: "Grandpa, let me introduce to you, this is Qian...huh? Where is the person?"

When Naruto turned around, Qianhe was gone.

"Naruto, what's wrong with your face? Are you being bullied again?" The third generation looked at Naruto's swollen cheeks, and a trace of distress and guilt flashed on his face.

Naruto shook his head and said: "No, I met three boys bullying a girl on the road today, so I went to help, but... hehe, there were too many of them!

Brother Qianhe didn't help me either. It would be nice if Sasuke was here. "

"Oh, that's it. Little Naruto is really brave and a good boy." The Third Hokage smiled and touched Naruto's head.

Then he changed the subject and said, "Then do you hate those people who bullied you?"

"Of course I hate it!"

Naruto's innocent answer made the third generation frown, and then said: "Then what will you do?"

"I want to become as powerful as Brother Qianhe in the future, so that no one dares to bully me." Naruto said firmly, holding his little fist.

The third generation seemed to ask casually: "I mean, if you become strong, will you bully those who have bullied you?"

When Naruto heard this, his face wrinkled slightly, as if it was difficult to answer.

Although Sandai pretended to be calm on the face, he was a little nervous in his heart. He wanted to know how far Naruto's thoughts had changed.

He was just busy with village affairs for a period of time and didn't come to see Naruto much. His attitude towards things has changed significantly.

Naruto's answer was very normal for ordinary children. He even said it was a very good and very positive answer.

But he is not just a child, he is not an ordinary child and cannot be treated like ordinary children.

Naruto thought for a while and finally replied:

"Even if I become stronger, I will not bully those who bullied me before.

Because Brother Qianhe told me that if I hate those bullies, I should not imitate them in bullying others.

Otherwise there would be no difference between me and those people. "

Hearing Naruto's answer, the Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief obviously.

However, Naruto said something that made his heart tighten again.

"However, I want to be as powerful as Brother Qianhe. I can choose not to bully others, but I will never allow others to bully me."

At this time, the Third Hokage remembered what Qianhe said to his instructor, Shima Kaede, when he was assigned to a new class: The dream is to become a strong man who can control his own destiny. I don’t like to play with others, and I don’t want to be played with by others. .

For those who were initially optimistic about Qianhe's third generation, Qianhe's dream was relatively 'normal'.

The third generation was neither surprised nor pleased.

He felt that Qian He would be a qualified successor to the Will of Fire, and his dream might be to enter the world, or become Hokage or something like that.

But his dream is to pursue power and become a strong man.

However, this did not go beyond the expectations of the Third Hokage. After all, when he met Qianhe, Qianhe practiced hard because his father and brother died in the third war.

In the eyes of Sandai, Qianhe is a very talented person.

In fact, when I graduated from Ninja High School, when I discussed my dreams with my mentor Jonin, I only half wanted to become Hokage. I even talked about conquering the Five Kingdoms and unifying the Ninja World.

Naturally, Sandai will not care about such childish words.

In fact, most of the outstanding talents in ninja schools, when talking about their dreams, few people say they want to become Hokage.

Geniuses mature precociously, and they know how difficult it is to become Hokage. Few geniuses will say they want to become Hokage right after graduation.

꺶Shinmaru is like this, Kakashi is like this, 꿀水 is like this, Itachi and Qianhe are also like this.

Even the third generation Hokage himself was the same when he became a disciple. His original dream was just to bring peace to the ninja world and to strengthen his family.

As for becoming Hokage, he naturally thought about it and worked hard for it, but he never shouted slogans.

If you want to become Hokage, you must go through countless difficulties and obstacles.

Although strength is not an absolute standard, if you want to become Hokage, super strength is a must.

For the third generation, before he appreciated and cherished Qianhe's talent, but now he has begun to fear Qianhe's talent and strength.

But as long as Qianhe doesn't do anything to harm Konoha, the third generation will not touch him easily.

Geniuses have ambitions and are good at their own thoughts. Qianhe's experience reminded the Third Hokage of Snake Maru.

Of course, Qianhe is much better than Shewan. At least his thoughts are those of a normal person. Although he has deviated from the original will of fire, it is still within control.

For Qianhe, the third generation can let it grow.

But Naruto, absolutely not!

The third generation would rather Naruto become a hot-blooded and brainless idiot than a genius who is good at thinking and hiding his thoughts like Qianhe.

Genius is often a double-edged sword, especially if Naruto is a Jinchuuriki, the danger is even greater.

Although the third generation of Hokage did not agree with Danzo's plan, he trained Naruto to be an emotionless weapon.

But the Third Generation also really didn’t want Naruto to become particularly smart. If he was treated like this by the village like his father, the Fourth Hokage, how he would treat the village and those who had hurt him, the Third Generation couldn’t imagine.

The third generation of Hokage understands Minato. Minato is a genius who has inherited the will of fire. He is a 'kind' person, but Minato is still a genius with normal human thoughts.

After Minato came to power, he also had many ideas of his own.

Before the third generation was delegated power, Minato thought of forming his own ANBU team to cultivate a new generation of geniuses.

Later, he also actively dealt with the conflicts between the village and the Uchiha clan, and even made concessions that were difficult for the higher-ups to accept for a while.

For such an independent and courageous genius, if his children are like him, the third generation is still a little afraid.

The older they get, the more indecisive and scrupulous they become.

There was no turning back, and now the village has established its policy towards Naruto.

Although the senior management led by the third generation made some concessions due to the intervention of Qianhe and Jiraiya, the basic policy cannot be changed, and other senior management will not agree.

The third generation neither wanted Naruto to grow up according to Danzo's policy, nor did he want Naruto to grow up like the son of an ordinary hero.

After all, if Naruto didn't control it, the Nine-Tails would explode again, and Konoha couldn't bear it.

"Naruto has already formed a bond with Qianhe, and has entered his social circle because of Qianhe's relationship. Having a bond is a good thing, but Qianhe's influence on him is indeed a little too great, so he has to be careful."

Looking at Sandai in a daze, Naruto asked in confusion: "Grandpa, what are you thinking about?"

"Ah? It's nothing. I was wondering if you had eaten, little Naruto." Sandai pointed at a beautifully packaged box on the table and said:

"This is the 놅 lunch box I brought you. It contains your favorite 놅 beef!"

Naruto looked at the beautifully packaged bento on the table, scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a smile:

"I'm sorry, grandpa, I've already eaten.

window._taboola = window._taboola || ; _taboola.push({ mode: 'thumbs-feed-01', container: 'taboola-below-article-thumbnail---300x250', placement: 'Below article thumbnail-300x250' , target_type: 'mix' });

Sister Caiyin from Zhong꿢 was treated to a dinner party for her birthday and she was so full!

After finishing our meal, we went to the meatball shop and ate meatballs again.

I'll save this for dinner. "

There was a hint of embarrassment on Sandai's face, then he shook his head and said:

"That's okay. By the way, little Naruto, do you have enough money recently? Do you want me to give you some more?"

Naruto smiled when he heard this and said:

"Thank you, grandpa, no need. Brother He and sister Caiyin have always given me pocket money, and I can't use it all."

"Huh? Did they give you a lot of money?" Sandai asked with a smile.

Naruto shook his head and said: "That's not true, but brother Hehe paid me more than a dollar in advance at Ichiraku Ramen, and the ramen there is super delicious!

Moreover, the boss, Uncle 꿛 and Sister Changpu, are very kind to me. They give me discounts and pick-up dishes every time.

Apart from eating, ordinary places won’t sell me anything...

But recently when I buy meatballs, the owner of the meatball shop will also sell them to me. "

"Oh, so it's like this, they are so kind to you, you must treat them well in the future." The third Hokage said with a smile on his face.

"Yes! Of course, I promised Brother He that I would work for him and pay him back in the future." Naruto said firmly.

When Sandai heard this, his face changed slightly, his pupils shrank suddenly, and then he smiled lightly: "What kind of part-time job are you doing?"

"Just wait until I become a ninja and do tasks to make money, and then return it to Brother He."

"Become a ninja? Little Naruto should start learning to read soon, right? Are you ready to become a ninja?" The Third Hokage asked casually. He naturally knew about Naruto going to school. This kind of thing, Ji녤놆Naruto As soon as he did it, he got the news immediately.

The people who gave Naruto an enlightenment education have been strictly investigated, let alone three generations back. The teachers who give lessons will be monitored by ANBU 24 hours a day to prevent accidents.

However, Naruto's idea of ​​becoming a ninja and working part-time was the first time he heard it, and he couldn't help but take it seriously.

"놆ah! If you become a ninja, you can make as much money as Brother He!" When it came to money, Naruto's blue eyes shone.

The third generation was speechless, and then asked: "It will take a lot of hard work to become a ninja. Can you stick to it?"

As a Jinchūriki, becoming a ninja is inevitable, otherwise you can't even control the chakra, how can you suppress the tailed beast.

But the third generation must control Naruto from enlightenment to becoming a ninja.

"I'm not afraid of hardship!" Little Naruto's face was full of determination and seriousness.

The third generation smiled and touched Naruto's head, saying: "Then little Naruto can refine chakra? To become a ninja, you need to learn the chakra refining technique. Can you do it?"

As he said, the third generation stared at Naruto's face closely.

"No, I heard Brother He talk about the requirements of becoming a ninja. I wanted him to teach me the chakra refining technique, but he said that it was too early for me to learn it now, and that I would naturally learn it in the future and didn't need him to teach me!" Naruto shook his head.

The third generation's face relaxed when he heard this, and then he smiled and said, "Does little Naruto want to learn chakra refining? I can teach you."

"Grandpa, are you serious?!" Naruto's eyes lit up, his face full of desire.

The third generation nodded and said, "Of course it's true, but it's too early now. I'll teach you when little Naruto is four years old. You should learn literary knowledge first. I will check your learning progress regularly. If you fall behind, I won't teach you chakra refining."

"Yeah! Okay!" Naruto nodded heavily.

"Well, it's about the same time today, I'll leave first, and I'll come to see you in a few days." The third generation stood up and prepared to leave.

"Well, goodbye, grandpa." Naruto waved goodbye reluctantly.

The third generation walked to the door, and suddenly stopped, as if he thought of something, and turned around and asked:

"By the way, little Naruto, what's the name of the girl you saved today?"

"It seems to be Hyuga Hinata, what's wrong, grandpa?"

"Oh, nothing, just asking, I met you last time."

"Yeah."

The third generation walked to the door, looked at the moonlight wind on the roof of the opposite building, and muttered to himself:

"Hyuga clan? Have they also moved their little thoughts? It seems that it's time to appease them, and even let them together..."

******

In Konoha 52, the entire ninja world entered a relatively peaceful period.

The Cloud Hidden Village, which had been in a mess with Konoha, also temporarily stopped, and resumed the state of small-scale conflicts with Konoha.

On the other hand, the Cloud Hidden Village and the Rock Hidden Village actively contacted and secretly communicated.

However, the Third Tsuchikage of Rock Village, Konnoki, never believed the attitude shown by Cloud Village.

After all, the father of the Fourth Raikage, the Third Raikage, fought against the 10,000-man army of the Land of Earth for three days and three nights, and finally died of exhaustion.

If the Third Hokage could give up such hatred, Konnoki believed it, but with the temper of the Fourth Raikage, Konnoki absolutely did not believe that Cloud Village could give up hatred and unite with them to fight against Konoha. People are different.

At this time, the Sand Village was dormant and developed, adhering to the attitude of not offending anyone.

The only village with the most conflicts with the Sand Village, the Mist Village, also let the Mist Village vent its anger because the Sand Village handed over its own village's Burning Release Ninja Ye Cang.

Now the Mist Village seems to have set its sights on Konoha, and has been harassing Konoha on a small scale.

This is naturally a rare development opportunity for the Fourth Kazekage.

......

Mist Village, high-level meeting.

The Fourth Mizukage just made a decision at the meeting and issued an order to start cleaning up the blood-stained families in the entire Water Country.

Although this order was resisted by most of the ninjas attending the meeting, the Fourth Mizukage has always been a man of his word, and no one can make him take back his order.

Participating in the meeting was the Kaguya clan. The warlike clan leader of the Kaguya clan immediately applauded the Fourth Mizukage's proposal.

For the Kaguya clan, this decision will make them have endless battles to fight.

And the Fourth Mizukage also summoned the clan leader of the Kaguya clan alone after the meeting.

Since then, the "Blood Mist Village" has become more worthy of its name and has entered a darker period.

For those blood-stained families, the Water Country has become hell.

......

The Hidden Rain Village, the high pavilion in the center.

This is the residence of Hanzo, the controller of the Hidden Rain Village, who is called the demigod.

Hanzo no longer had the heroic spirit he had in the past. Compared to the three ninjas of Konoha, Jiraiya, Tsunayoshi, and Orochimaru, Hanzo is now a depressed old man.

In order to prevent assassinations by those who disobey his rule, he transferred all the ninjas of the Hidden Rain Village to his mansion to protect him 24 hours a day.

He had lost the courage to compete with the five countries and the drive to fight for peace in the ninja world.

He began to indulge in singing and dancing every day, paralyzing himself with alcohol, and wasting time in his own country.

But his "good days" were over.

Six ninjas wearing black robes with red clouds broke into his yard.

The six people were like entering an empty space, killing all the guards around them, and Hanzo's poison had no effect on the six people at all.

"Who are you? How dare you kill me..."

"Don't you recognize this face?"

"You are Yahiko from Akatsuki, you will die if you don't..."

A generation of "demigod" died in his own home.
