Chapter 693 Two months later
It wasn't until Mito Kadoyan's head was stuffed into the noose that he felt great fear.
Mito Menyan opened his mouth wide, but no sound came out.
The executioner didn't hesitate at all. After putting everyone on the noose, he gave the order:
"put!"
As soon as the shelf was empty, all the condemned prisoners suddenly fell down, and the nooses tightened, quickly tightening their necks.
The instantaneous impact caused fractures in the cervical vertebrae, and the central nervous system and cervical aorta were instantly severed.
Not long after, these people were hanged here in a horrifying manner.
The villagers below all clapped their hands and cheered.
"Death! A good death!"
"oh!"
"I heard this was just the first batch of executions."
"There will be more people who will follow, and if they are found out, they will be executed."
When these people were hanged, the impact was huge.
The one who died in particular was a member of the Sarutobi tribe, Mito Monobu, the previous advisor.
During the subsequent investigation, the Shimura clan, the Tensho clan, and the ninja clan who had good relations with them.
Suddenly he became very easy to talk to and actively cooperated. If there were any problems, he would admit his guilt and accept punishment.
Even so, there were still occasional incidents, and some people were hanged.
Among them were the people who spread rumors about Naruto, people from the Shimura clan, and people from the Sarutobi clan.
…
Two months passed quickly, and more than seventy people in the Sarutobi clan were hanged one after another.
Although now one is hanged every few days.
But everyone in the Sarutobi clan is in constant fear.
Especially those who are still in prison, they are afraid that they will not see the sun tomorrow.
Because the interrogator didn't play by the rules at all.
The process is just a few sentences, laying out the charges. Do you plead guilty?
deny? Drag him out and hang him!
Plea? Well, if the crime is not serious and he is willing to pay compensation, then he will be locked up for now.
Those of the Sarutobi tribe who are not in prison will have a hard time, and one day they will suddenly discover that there is something wrong with you and they will come to arrest you.
Moreover, all Sarutobi tribesmen must disguise themselves when going out.
Otherwise, it is easy to be discriminated against.
What? You are from the Sarutobi clan. If I don't sell anything to you, get out.
One restaurant even said "Sarutobi and dogs are not allowed to enter".
However, after the Inuzuka clan complained, it was changed to [Sarutobi and garbage are not allowed to enter].
Some people even clash with them on the street.
There are those who discriminated against Naruto back then, and there are also people who are truly grievances.
…
On the other side, it's time for Tsunade to get married.
She didn't plan to make a big deal, after all, she could hide the news of Kato Dan's resurrection if she could.
Tsunade and Kato Dan no longer have any elders. Even if the wedding is a big one, there is no one to officiate.
The other thing is that she no longer cares about these vulgar etiquette.
For such an important matter, Xia Mu and others must come back.
Natsuki took them to the Hokage Building as a Flying Thunder God, and then asked Hinata to go home and rest.
He took Sasuke to Orochimaru's laboratory to visit Kimimaro.
Natsuki asked Naruto to walk around the streets twice.
Naruto didn't know why, but he still listened to Natsuki and prepared to go shopping alone.
Naruto soon noticed some people whispering to him.
"Look, isn't that Uzumaki Naruto?"
"Yes, yes, that's him."
"He is the son of the Fourth Hokage and the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tails."
"I bullied him when I was a kid. I was really nothing."
"I'm going to apologize, what about you?"
"Go...I'm scared."
"Hmph, I don't know what to be afraid of. Naruto has never hurt anyone in the village."
"Do you want to be hanged?"
"Hiss... I have to go right away."
A boy about the same age as Naruto suddenly blocked Naruto's way.
"Naruto! I'm sorry! I was confused by Hiruzen Sarutobi before, and that's why I had conflicts with you."
"hope you can forgive me!"
The child said and bowed towards Naruto.
【
】
Naruto had never been treated like this before, and he couldn't laugh or cry:
"It's okay, it's been so many years."
"Ah, really, thank you so much!"
Then the child ran towards home in a hurry: "Dad, Naruto has forgiven me!"
The other people couldn't help but surrounded Naruto when they saw how easy he talked.
"And me! And me!..."
"Naruto! My dad sold you expired milk back then, and I'm here to apologize on his behalf!"
"Naruto! I snatched your toy in the park at that time, I'm sorry!..."
The chirping sound made Naruto feel dizzy. He secretly cast a shadow clone, and he sneaked out amid the chaos.
Naruto no longer felt happy or relieved, because he had long since stopped taking these things to heart.
Ever since he met his master, he was protected by Uchiha and Tsunade, and no one dared to trouble him at that time.
He had food, drink, clothing, money, a girlfriend, and a backer.
There is no need for these ordinary villagers to agree.
But if those people came to apologize, there would be no problem for Naruto to leave a shadow clone to accept it.
Regardless of whether those people really felt that they were wrong, or they were afraid of the Yondaime Hokage.
Naruto felt there was no difference, he only needed Natsuki's approval, not strangers' approval.
…
After leaving behind a shadow clone, Naruto quickly rushed home.
After all, he didn't spend too long with his mother after she was resurrected, and he misses her a little now.
Soon, Naruto returned to his door. After sorting out his mood, Naruto opened the door: "I'm back!"
Kushina, who was cooking in the room, showed a smile: "Naruto, wash your hands quickly, dinner will be served soon."
"Oh! Got it, Mom!"
After washing his hands, he came over and stared at Kushina cooking.
"Go over and wait, don't stay here."
Naruto hugged Kushina: "Mom, I am so happy."
Kushina turned off the fire and touched Naruto's head.
"Okay, put the dishes on the table first, and I'll call your dad back right away."
Naruto chuckled: "Hey, okay."
After Naruto helped Kushina put the food away, Kushina picked up the phone hanging on the wall.
This was installed recently and can only be used for short distances.
"Naruto is back and the food is ready. Come back for dinner soon."
Minato's voice came from the other end of the phone: "I understand, I'll make arrangements."
Two minutes later, Minato used Flying Thunder God to fly behind Kushina.
"Dad!" Naruto hadn't seen Minato for a while.
He hugged Minato tightly.
Minato patted Naruto's head:
"I've been out for two months. What happened?"
Naruto scratched his head, lowered his head in embarrassment, and said in a low voice: "I...I have a girlfriend."
"What did you say!?"
Kushina threw away the spoon and pushed Minato aside, her eyes filled with stars.
"Tell mom, what kind of girl is she?"
Naruto was even more embarrassed:
"Uh...well...her name is Hinata and she is my teammate."
Minato came over at this time and said, "Hinata is a good child with a good personality."
Kushina pushed Minato open: "Go wash your hands quickly and let me talk to Naruto."
Minato had no choice but to wash his hands with a sneer on his face.
Kushina winked at Naruto and said, "Tell me, who confessed to you?"
The way Kushina's eyes were shining directly refreshed Naruto's impression of his mother.
"It's...it's me..."
Kushina slapped Naruto on the back:
"Okay, son! Bring her back to me sometime!"
"Let's eat first and talk while eating." Minato washed his hands.
Pulling Naruto and Kushina to the dining table.
Minato brought food to Naruto: "What did Natsuki teach you after two months of absence?"
"Master taught me many principles..."
