Chapter 1438 Uzumaki Naruto at the School Gate

The yellow-haired child sat astride the swing, looking at the many children holding their parents' hands with envy and longing on his face.

"Uzumaki Naruto!" Hyuga Neji glanced at the slightly dirty, yellow-haired child.

His features were easily recognizable to Hyuga Neji.

After all, there are not many children who have strange beards on their faces at such a young age and look like an animal. They are born to make people feel strange.

"Who is that? Is he our classmate too?" Tenten looked in the direction of Hyuga Neji and saw Uzumaki Naruto sitting alone on the swing under a big tree. He looked so pitiful that it seemed like he was about to cry.

"It's a fox demon." Tiantian's father looked a little unnatural.

He did not discriminate against Uzumaki Naruto.

Tiantian's father runs a weapons store, and Uzumaki Naruto has never met him. He only learned the name of the demon fox from other vegetable sellers when he went to the market to buy vegetables.

When the Nine-Tails ravaged Konoha Village, many people lost their lives. This sadness was hidden in their hearts. Someone saw Uzumaki Naruto's beard and thought it looked like a fox, so the villagers called him a demon fox and hated him.

But in fact, even many villagers didn't know where the news came from. They only knew that anyone who came into contact with the demon fox might be captured and checked by some ninja. It was a secret. Naturally, the villagers didn't want to get into trouble, nor did they want their children to play with demon foxes. Naturally, Uzumaki Naruto became the one discriminated against by everyone and was considered to be the embodiment of misfortune.

"Demon Fox?" Tiantian had a question mark over his head, "Why is he called a demon fox?"

This really stumped Tiantian's father.

“Dad doesn’t know either, but many children’s families don’t allow their children to play with him, thinking he will bring misfortune.” Tiantian’s father doesn’t know the details either.

He guessed that the hatred of the Nine-tailed Demon Fox, the real culprit that wreaked havoc in Konoha Village and caused the deaths of many villagers, was probably grafted onto a child.

But actually some of it is nonsense.

In fact, Uzumaki Naruto did not appear in front of the villagers until he was about three years old. Three years have passed, and the influence of the Nine-tailed Demon Fox on Konoha Village has been reduced a lot. Although they are sad that their relatives died in the destruction of Konoha Village by the Nine-tailed Demon Fox, they would not implicate a child and call a child who looks a little strange the Nine-tailed Fox.

No matter what conspiracy there was behind this, Hyuga Neji didn't find it surprising.

At this time, Uzumaki Naruto noticed Hyuga Neji and Tenten. Tenten's father was looking at him, and Uzumaki Naruto's eyes couldn't help but light up, and that look of desire to escape from loneliness met Hyuga Neji's eyes.

"Ah..." Uzumaki Naruto was also shocked by Hyuga Neji's appearance. If Hyuga Neji had not appeared in the strong sunlight during the day, with Hyuga Neji's glowing white skin, skull face, dark dark circles, and blood vessels all over the white eyeballs, if he stood in the corner of the alley at night, anyone would think he had seen a ghost.

Uzumaki Naruto felt creepy when being stared at by Hyuga Neji.

"·····Hee." Uzumaki Naruto swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, his forehead was a little sweaty. He scratched the back of his head with his right hand. His heart was numb, and he couldn't help but trembled at the corners of his mouth. He grinned at Hyuga Neji, showing his big white teeth.

Looking silly.

"The orphans of martyrs are treated like this. This world is really twisted." Hyuga Neji looked at Uzumaki Naruto with a faint expression and said secretly in his heart.

There are many ways to treat Uzumaki Naruto.

Conceal the Jinchūriki's identity and allow him to make friends and grow in peace.

Find a pair of adoptive parents for Uzumaki Naruto and let him grow up with parents.

Or maybe it would be to tell everyone that Uzumaki Naruto is the orphan of a martyr, so that he can grow up with pride and responsibility.

The above methods are not bad, especially since Konoha Village has always been in the most fertile land and is the strongest ninja village. But this strongest ninja village always makes the most cowardly choices.

Whether it was forcing Hatake Sakumo to death, the three ninjas running away, handing over Hyuga Hizashi's body to Kumogakure, or the current treatment of the martyrs' orphans, all of them are difficult to understand.

Hyuga Neji understood that these seemingly incomprehensible things were the result of political games within Konoha Village, and he could also see clearly their operations.

However, even if he could see it clearly, it did not prevent Hyuga Neji from despising the people who were in charge of Konoha Village.

Whether it was the death of Hyuga Hizashi or the treatment of the martyr's orphans, the Konoha Village chose a method that Hyuga Neji did not like very much.

Haier has been to many worlds, but none of them was as strange and outrageous as this world. The way the orphans of the martyrs were treated was to make ordinary villagers hate and insult them, and isolate a five-year-old child for several years.

The most amazing thing is...that even the top leader in charge of a village didn't stop it.

Or perhaps he, as the supreme leader of a village, has already stopped ordinary villagers from causing physical harm to Uzumaki Naruto, and he thinks that this is enough.

This world is a little twisted.

"Let's go." Hyuga Neji withdrew his gaze and walked towards the gate of the ninja school with Tenten and Tenten's father.

Uzumaki Naruto's grin that showed off his big white teeth suddenly darkened as he watched Hyuga Neji and the others walk towards the ninja school.

Although Hyuga Neji looks like a ghost and can be scary at night, Uzumaki Naruto will definitely make friends with this ghost-like guy if he makes friends with him.

Especially when I saw Hyuga Neji and others walking together, I couldn't help but feel envious.

Even the guy who looks like a ghost has friends...

Tiantian's father breathed a sigh of relief.

If it wasn't necessary, he didn't want to make friends with a fox demon every day.

Although Tenten's father was not a high-ranking official in Konoha, he was dealing with ninjas and had sensed some rumors. He did not approve of Tenten making friends with the fox demon.

In Konoha, the most difficult people to deal with are people like Tenten's father.

There is no way up or down. No one knows why Uzumaki Naruto is a demon fox. The ninja also looks like he can't say anything and is very secretive, which makes Tiantian's father even more alert.

Forget about making friends with the demon fox. Now Tenten's father is so annoyed about how to get his daughter away from Hyuga Neji.

Sad.

"Goodbye, Dad." Tenten waved her little hand and said goodbye to her father who was forcing a smile, then pulled Hyuga Neji and ran towards Class A's classroom.

There are already many noisy children in Class A's classroom.

As soon as Hyuga Neji entered the classroom from the door, he was treated the same way as Uzumaki Naruto. He was discriminated against with strange looks, isolated, and talked about in a low voice.
