Natsume jumped on the high chair and said, "Order Naruto a bowl of his favorite barbecued pork ribs ramen."
"okay!"
Shou Da smiled and said, "Guest, please wait a moment."
Natsume scanned the circle and saw that the store was doing well and almost full.
But Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant itself is not big.
After he helped Uzumaki Naruto occupy a seat, while waiting, he smiled and asked: "Boss, do you have another last name?"
"No, guest, why do you ask that?"
He was cooking ramen by hand without looking back at him.
"I think you have an extraordinary temperament, boss. Maybe you are a descendant of a big family."
Natsume explained casually.
"Hahaha."
He showed a hearty and happy smile and said, "The guest is really amazing."
"Uncle!"
A distant voice came over.
"Huh? Big brother is here too."
Uzumaki Naruto climbed onto the high stool and said, "Good morning."
"Naruto, your ramen is already being made."
Shou Da said with a smile.
He is one of the few ordinary people who has never discriminated against the status of a demon fox from beginning to end.
That's right, he is not a ninja, and his surname is not Otsutsuki.
"Thank you, big brother."
Uzumaki Naruto naturally knew who ordered it.
"Are you going to the hospital later?"
Natsume suspected that he had not heard the news about what happened to the Uchiha clan.
Because no one will chat with him.
"Hospital?"
Uzumaki Naruto was stunned for a second and asked, "Big brother, are you going to see a doctor?"
"not me."
Natsume shook his head and said, "It's Sasuke, he's in the hospital now."
"Sasuke?!"
Uzumaki Naruto's eyes widened and he subconsciously wanted to run.
"Don't worry, he's fine. You eat first."
Natsume held his shoulders and said.
"Oh oh."
Naruto Uzumaki breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "How did he get injured? Did he fall on the way home last night?"
Is Sasuke that outrageous in your heart?
Can it still be thrown flat?
He is not a romance heroine.
"Don't say this in front of Sasuke."
Natsume hesitated for a moment and told him the general situation last night in his ear.
He will know anyway.
And if he didn't tell Uzumaki Naruto and asked directly in front of Uchiha Sasuke later, it would be just to attract hatred.
"how so?"
Uzumaki Naruto's smile instantly froze.
He has the most say in what it's like to be an orphan, so he can understand Uchiha Sasuke.
"Brother, I won't eat. I'm going to see Sasuke."
Naruto Uzumaki jumped off the stool and left in a hurry.
Natsume hesitated to speak, but finally said nothing more.
Because he was worried about Uchiha Sasuke, Uzumaki Naruto was very fast.
But after walking for a while, he suddenly stopped.
He heard people chatting in the restaurant not far away.
"It's so pitiful that overnight, the most powerful Uchiha clan was wiped out."
"I heard it was because they kidnapped and killed Hokage-sama's son first."
"It's better to die! Those guys with their noses in the air are so annoying! They will be severely punished for every little thing!"
"Indeed! The Konoha Police Force makes everyone complain every time."
Uzumaki Naruto clenched his fists subconsciously.
That’s it again!
The world is full of people chewing their ears.
He took a deep breath and rushed to Konoha Hospital quickly.
"Sasuke!"
Uzumaki Naruto pushed open the ward and saw Uchiha Sasuke in a hospital gown.
"Keep your voice down, he's not awake yet."
The nurse reminded me.
"Feel sorry."
Uzumaki Naruto said as he came to the hospital bed.
Uchiha Sasuke suddenly opened his eyes, his emotions fluctuated too much, and his body couldn't bear it, so he fainted.
It didn't take long.
He woke up.
Looking at the unfamiliar ceiling, he was stunned for a few seconds.
Memories of last night came to mind.
Uchiha Sasuke immediately stood up, ignored Uzumaki Naruto, and left the ward as fast as he could.
The nurse didn't even realize what was happening.
"Sasuke!"
Uzumaki Naruto quickly stood up and followed.
The two of them chased each other and finally stopped in front of the Uchiha Clan's headquarters.
Uchiha Sasuke looked in a daze, looking at the empty room, which was still filled with the smell of blood.
It's real, not a dream.
The Uchiha clan no longer exists.
He was left alone.
No, there is also Itachi Uchiha.
Uchiha Sasuke's eyes suddenly showed a magatama, and a cold aura spread.
"Sasuke, your eyes?"
As soon as Uzumaki Naruto arrived, he saw those eyes shining with scarlet blood.
"Shut up!"
Uchiha Sasuke suddenly burst out emotionally.
"Sasuke..."
Naruto Uzumaki stepped forward with some distress and said, "I understand how you feel now, but you..."
"Understand? How do you understand?!"
Uchiha Sasuke immediately stepped forward and locked his neck, "Did you see it? This is the Sharingan! You will never be my opponent again!"
"Sasuke, don't do this."
Uzumaki Naruto looked at his ferocious face and couldn't bear it.
It has lost all its former glory.
Before, although Uchiha Sasuke had a cold face, his true emotions could be felt from his eyes and actions.
Now there is only gloom and indifference, as if the whole person exudes a black and ominous atmosphere.
"Dead, all dead, all dead! They were all killed by my dear brother!"
Uchiha Sasuke opened his mouth and laughed wildly, "Hahaha, do you understand? Can you understand?"
It looks like madness.
Naruto Uzumaki suddenly opened his restraints, punched him in the face, and shouted: "Please wake up!"
The battle between the two begins.
Natsume, who was not far away, shook his head.
After opening the Magatama Sharingan, Uchiha Sasuke's strength has indeed been greatly improved.
Comparable to the average chuunin.
But will Uzumaki Naruto be afraid of Chuunin?
Because of his huge chakra and the absence of the Kyuubi's troubles, he learned wind escape from Sarutobi Seiyuki, and trained in Taijutsu with Rock Lee and Matt Kai, so he was already extraordinary.
I didn't use all my strength before, but in this situation, I didn't need to use all my strength to subdue Uchiha Sasuke.
The fight lasted for more than ten minutes.
In the end, Uchiha Sasuke was pinned to the ground by Uzumaki Naruto.
"Giving up on yourself won't solve the problem."
Uchiha Sasuke's wild laughter disappeared long ago and became extremely complicated.
Why can't I defeat Uzumaki Naruto even with Sharingan activated?
What the hell is going on with this guy?
The strong unwillingness made the magatama in his eyes tremble again.
"Since the enemy is still alive, let's take revenge."
Uzumaki Naruto fools around with Natsume and is more mature than he is in the original work.
There is no way, even if it is not intentional, his big brother always says some weird things.
"You can't even beat me, so how can you waste your time here? Sasuke, come with me to train."
Uzumaki Naruto continued to escape.
Being held down, Uchiha Sasuke's blood pressure soared.
One magatama quietly split into two magatama.
The opening and advancement of the Sharingan requires emotional stimulation.
But there are many kinds of emotions.
In this life, Natsu felt that what Uchiha Sasuke needed was not stimulation from his family, but stimulation from his lifelong enemy.
In other words, Uzumaki Naruto.
The fate of the two of them has long surpassed the so-called family relationship, and it is undoubtedly the most effective.
In the original work, Uchiha Itachi released a large amount of sea water to make Uchiha Sasuke open his eyes.
As the reincarnation of Indra Chakra, is this really so?
Obviously not.
But I haven't found the right method.
[Because of your actions, Uzumaki Naruto's fate has changed, and you have gained seventy-seven destiny points. ]
[Because of your actions, Uchiha Sasuke's fate has changed, and you have gained seventy-seven destiny points. ]
Is this the bond of fate?
Natsume watched the two people get back together, then turned and left.
He turned on the sage mode and touched the outer window of the Hokage's office.
Think of it as a pre-drill in the future to familiarize yourself with the escape route.
After all, after Tsunade becomes Hokage, he may frequently visit the Hokage's office.
"Hiruzhan, you know me."
Danzo Shimura leaned on a cane and said with a normal expression, "I will never do such a thing that is not good for Konoha."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was so tired that he pressed his forehead.
In the past few days, he seemed to have aged more than ten years, and he clearly felt the signals sent by his body.
It's time for him to retire.
His son and grandson died unexpectedly one after another.
Now it is widely rumored that the Uchiha clan was destroyed because he wanted revenge, so he sent Uchiha Itachi.
And this statement is very popular.
Because normal people would not believe that Uchiha Itachi would kill his father and then destroy the entire clan.
Unless ordered by the Hokage.
As a ninja, you have to do it.
"Hiruzhan, rest for a few days. If you continue like this, your body will collapse."
After turning to bed, Koharu glanced at Danzo Shimura and said with concern, "Just leave the rest to us."
"Have you found out the source of the rumor?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand to her and looked at the ANBU ninja in front of him.
"Nothing has been found. We still need time."
The ANBU ninja replied, "This person is very smart. He always chooses izakayas and other lively places to spread the news, and involves too many people."
"You should publish the truth while you are investigating, so that the villagers will not be completely deceived."
Because there are not many people who can do this.
In other words, one person cannot spread so many rumors overnight.
There is a high probability that there is a force behind it.
Such as roots or ninja.
But he has no evidence.
And Danzo Shimura is right, he will not do anything that is not good for Konoha.
Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.
Physically and mentally tired.
He was silent for a long time and said: "It is indeed time to find someone to share the burden for me. The Fifth Hokage has been vacant for a long time."
Danzo Shimura almost couldn't restrain the joy in his heart when he heard this and laughed out loud.
When they went to bed, Koharu and Mito Menyan also looked at each other.
According to normal procedures, the Fifth Hokage should have been selected long ago.
After all, it has been almost four years since the Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato died.
When Hiruzen Sarutobi returned to Hokage, he advertised that he would be in charge of Konoha temporarily until a suitable candidate could be found, and then retire.
But this management lasted four years.
There is no doubt that his mentality has changed.
"Tsunade……"
As soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen opened his mouth, he was interrupted.
"Hiruzhan, this matter should be decided jointly by the top management of Konoha."
After going to bed, Koharu said in time, "It's best to call Jiraiya back and let everyone vote for the new Hokage."
Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately glanced at her expression, there was something wrong.
But her proposal did fit the bill.
Under normal circumstances, Hiruzen Sarutobi, Danzo Shimura, Koharu Koharu, Mito Kadeni, Jiraiya, Orochimaru and Tsunade first come up with a candidate, then let the Jonin vote, and finally announce it.
, let’s see how the villagers react.
If it involves me, I will delete it for now.
For example, when he was the fourth Hokage, Orochimaru did not participate in the discussion because he was a candidate.
Of course, if you don't get it, it will be deemed as a waiver.
Jiraiya returned to Konoha three years ago because of the prophecy, but struggled to find the mysterious Wood Escape master.
With his character, he naturally couldn't bear to stay in one place for a long time, so he eventually wandered the ninja world in search of the child of prophecy.
“How about we come up with the candidates first?”
Seeing his silence, Mito Kadoyan spoke again, "I propose Jiraiya."
Sarutobi Hiruzen nodded.
Jiraiya is also good as Hokage.
It was originally his first choice.
It's just that this guy is obsessed with prophecies every day, so I'm afraid it's very difficult.
"Tsunade, you should also participate."
Sarutobi Hiruzen raised his head and said.
"Um."
Tsunade didn't refuse.
Speaking of which, Hiruzen Sarutobi was quite pleasantly surprised by her recent changes.
In the past, Tsunade was extremely undisciplined even as a ninja, let alone being a Hokage.
"There is also me."
Danzo Shimura spoke calmly.
"Why are you joining in the fun?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen took a puff of his cigarette and said, "You are getting older, so you can take care of yourself like me."
"I'm still very young."
Shimura Danzo asked without changing his expression, "And Konoha does not regulate the age of the Hokage."
"..."
Sarutobi Hiruzen twitched his lips.
I just pointed at him and asked, "Do you still want to be shameless?"
Suddenly his eyes narrowed slightly.
Something's wrong.
Could it be said that he, Koharu, who has moved to another dormitory, and Mito Monen, have joined forces?
Just two votes cannot achieve a decisive victory.
Besides, Danzo Shimura couldn't pass the jounin vote.
Compared to Tsunade and Jiraiya, his reputation is too bad.
What confidence does he have?
While Sarutobi Hiruzen was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door.
The ANBU ninja walked in, half-knelt down and said, "Lord Hokage, the Daimyo of the Fire Country has arrived and wants to see you."
"...?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen subconsciously looked at Shimura Danzo.
He didn't ask for the name of the Fire Nation.
It's impossible to come over and visit on weekdays.
And it happened to be the time to choose a new Hokage.
The most likely reason is that Danzo Shimura secretly invited him.
Because in theory, the appointment of the Hokage must go through the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.
He also has the power to advise.
Danzo Shimura looked at his nose with his eyes, his nose at his mouth, and his mouth at his heart, with a high-spirited look.
Natsume, who was listening outside, couldn't help but sigh.
He underestimated Guoying.
But the outcome cannot yet be determined.
He possesses the Mangekyou Sharingan, and when the Daimyo of the Land of Fire arrives, he takes the initiative to deliver food.
In addition, there is Orochimaru.
He currently supports Shimura Danzo, but it will be difficult to say later.
Of course, Natsume didn't intend for him to support Tsunade, it would be too obvious, so the best way was to lure the snake out of its hole.
If he does not have time to participate, he will become an abstainer.
Plus Jiraiya definitely supports Tsunade.
In this way, Danzo Shimura lost the opportunity.
Tsunade can ascend to the position of Hokage with this.
