Konoha's Master of Illusion

Chapter 79
"I can't eat. I have no appetite."

Naruto has always been a rough-and-tumble optimist, but this does not mean that he can change his mood in the blink of an eye like a normal person after suffering one blow after another.

"Hinata baked this herself. The eldest lady of the Hyuga clan bakes something for you to eat. Even I, the captain, don't get this kind of treatment."

Tetsuya joked as he sat down next to Naruto.

The girl she likes, Sakura, clearly states that she likes his brother Sasuke, crying and begging him to help her get Sasuke back. This is the first blow to Naruto.Sasuke, a good friend he had always valued and an important companion, defected from the village. This was the second blow to Naruto.Then the mission failed and he lost to Sasuke. How to face Sakura when he went back was Naruto's third blow.

Zhe also knew very well that this guy was feeling extremely uncomfortable right now.

Not being able to eat is a trivial matter. Someone else might have found a place to hide somewhere and not seen anyone for at least a few days.

Tetsuya's joke made Naruto a little embarrassed and handed the fish to him:
"do you want to eat?"

"don't don't"

Tetsuya waved his hand quickly, but Hinata kept peeking over there. If he took a few bites and chewed them, he would be very ignorant.

"Eat slowly"

After Zheye finished speaking, an idea suddenly came to his mind. He quietly came closer and whispered:
"Naruto, I have a little secret about you."

"Uh? What?"

His mysterious expression and cautious tone made Naruto confused, and he put aside his depressed mood and asked.

"I'll tell you."

Tetsuya came close to Naruto's ear, held it with his hands and said something.

The small grilled fish wrapped in leaves could not be held firmly and fell to the ground. Fortunately, Tetsuya sensed it quickly enough and caught it in his hand before it hit the ground, and returned it to the stunned Naruto.

Naruto's eyes were as wide as bells, and he didn't even care about grilling fish:

"Really? She"

"Ask yourself."

Naruto stuffed the small grilled fish into his mouth in several mouthfuls, turned around and ran towards Xianglan and Hinata in a hurry.

"What did you tell him?"

Neji half-leaned to the side with soft hay on his back, also looking puzzled.As for Xiao Li, he was wrapped in bandages and fast asleep. According to him, sleeping is one of the best ways to heal injuries.

"It's nothing, I just told him that he still has a relative."

"Dear?"

Neji thought carefully for a while, and suddenly an idea flashed in his head, and he seemed to have discovered something:
"That. That fragrant phosphorus looks like"

"They both have the surname Uzumaki, so they are indeed somewhat related by blood."

Perhaps this blood relationship is indeed relatively thin, and there may not necessarily be a direct relationship within five generations between Kaoru and Naruto's mother Kushina, but for Naruto who has always been alone, suddenly appeared For a person with the same surname, the excitement is naturally uncontrollable.

It hasn't been long since Karin joined Team [-]. Except for Tetsuya and Hinata, everyone in this temporary team has come into contact with Karin for the first time.Due to time constraints when setting off, no one, including Neji, immediately noticed that her last name was the same as Naruto's when they introduced her.

Coupled with the fact that Hinata, the only one who has always paid attention to this, has the problem of being speechless or even fainting when in close contact with Naruto, this matter has been delayed until now by Tetsuya.

In their original destiny, Xiang Ling and Naruto had almost nothing to do with each other. Later, when they met, they didn't have much interaction with each other.In the finale, Sasuke returned to Konoha with Konoha and others. At that time, he had a relationship with the same village and began to be regarded as an acquaintance.

But now it's different, Xiang Ling is not the nymphomaniac who only has eyes for Sasuke, and Naruto is not the young man who only wants to stop Sasuke and stop the villain's unremitting efforts for many years.

Naruto was happy at the moment. After he approached, he opened his mouth to speak, but quickly closed it again.

He was a little apprehensive, a little uneasy.

Xiang Ling was boringly stirring the burning wood in the fire with a wooden stick, thinking that this mission was very hard, and he must pester Sister Keiko to cook more delicious meals when he got home.

"Mr. Naruto."

Hinata's hesitant voice made Kosovo's attention return to reality. Seeing Naruto staring straight at her, she felt dissatisfied:

"What are you doing? Don't try to trouble me. Don't think Hinata-senpai is happy."

Before she could finish her words, a nervous Hinata rushed over and covered her mouth.

"Senior Hinata, what are you afraid of?"

The words that almost blurted out were stopped, and Xiang Ling also understood Hinata's mentality, so he stopped mentioning certain things and complained instead.

"that."

Naruto touched his head awkwardly and said hesitantly:
"Xianglin, I just remembered."

He originally wanted to say that he had just heard from Tetsuya that your surname was Uzumaki, and you might be a relative of his.But then I thought about whether this would reveal that I didn't notice it at all in the first place and needed someone else to remind me.So I changed my words.

"Your last name is Uzumaki too."

"Oh, yes, my name is Uzumaki Uzumaki."

"Well. My name is Uzumaki Naruto"

Not to mention, if Naruto didn't take the initiative to mention it, Xiang Ling wouldn't have this string in his mind.So she immediately showed an expression of realization and hesitated:
"Are you also from the Uzumaki family?"

"Uh I don't know"

Hearing this, Naruto was a little disappointed. He really didn't know who his parents were.

"That's right, Naruto's father or mother must be from the Uzumaki clan, Karin, you and Naruto may actually be long-lost relatives."

Tetsuya arrived at this time, patted Naruto on the shoulder and said.

"is it?"

Xiang Phosphorus was not very sure and hesitated.

"Oh, don't worry about it so much. By the way, you know the standards of the Uzumaki clan, right? Look at the one on the back of Naruto's clothes. Is it the Uzumaki clan's standard?"

Tetsuya turned the stunned Naruto around and showed the swirling pattern to Karin.

"I"

Xiang Ling wanted to say that he was not very sensible when he wandered with his mother, and could not remember many details, but in the end he did not say it out loud.

The way she looked at Naruto gradually took on a different meaning.

Whether there is really a blood relationship is not a very important thing.For Xiang Ling and Naruto now, it is enough that they are the very few people with the surname Uzumaki who have survived in this world.

Naruto was so excited that he even had the idea of ​​rushing up to hug the other person, but he quickly restrained himself.

We are not particularly familiar with each other yet, and some behaviors that go too far may actually create distance between the two parties.

Sometimes, Naruto is still very smart.

On the way back to Konoha, Naruto and Tetsuya were responsible for carrying the injured Lee and Neji respectively, and the journey was uneventful.

After handing over the two wounded to the medical ninja, Tetsuya was about to go to the teacher to report the result of the task, but was stopped by Xianglin.

"Tetsuya-senpai, is he really my relative? Also, what is the Uzumaki clan?"

Phosphorus does seem to be hungry for the truth.

"Naruto's mother is a core member of the Uzumaki clan. She once served as Konoha's nine-tailed jinchuriki and came to Konoha from the Uzumaki clan in the Kingdom of Uzumaki."

"If the inherently powerful chakra and vitality of the Uzumaki Clan is also a type of Blood Succession Boundary, then Xianglin, you should also belong to the core clan of the Uzumaki Clan. Then it is almost 100% that Naruto and you must be related by blood."

Tetsuya deliberately exaggerated this possibility. As for the truth, no one cares.

The Uzushio Village in the Country of Uzumaki was completely destroyed many years ago, and there are only two and a half known members of the Uzumaki clan left alive, including Naruto.Kaoru is still young, and Nagato was not that old when he was living in the Land of Rain. If you want to get clues, you may have to look for the Kushina chakra hidden in the Eight Trigrams Seal in Naruto.

Tetsuya definitely doesn't intend to give up this effort.

"As for the Uzumaki clan, there is actually something similar to the alliance between the Kingdom of Wind and the Country of Fire. Since the establishment of Konoha, the Uzumaki clan of the Kingdom of Whirlpool has been a loyal ally of Konoha. The wife of the first Hokage is also a member of the Uzumaki clan. .”

Xiang Phosphorus nodded in understanding, looking thoughtful.

"Don't think about it so much. Isn't it something to be happy about having multiple relatives in the village? Just watch, that guy Naruto will definitely come to you tomorrow, just treat him like an extra brother and act like a spoiled brat. Sister, I’m afraid all the money in his wallet belongs to you.”

"Really? How much money does he have?"

Xiang Ling didn't know if he really had a tendency to be a little money obsessed. The first question at this time was to ask about Naruto's net worth.

Thinking of Naruto's toad wallet being emptied, Tetsuya smiled and said:
"You're definitely not as rich as me. What do you think? How about kicking Naruto away and serving me tea and water from now on? I promise to pay you more!"

"Cut, I don't care about it!"

Xiang Ling curled his lips and ran away.
