Naruto: Who made him a ninja?

“Speaking of which, what's been up with the teachers lately?”

Shūzé didn't care what Xī Yán thought, he held Xī Yán's hand and asked curiously.

“They used to scold me for spending all day at home flipping through documents, but now they're doing the same thing themselves, and they've even dragged Guāng into it. Are those documents really that easy to find?”

“Isn't it all because of you? The dam has already been breached, how could the teachers possibly stop so easily?”

Xī Yán pursed her lips, looking at Shūzé, the 'culprit,' who was still oblivious, and she was quite speechless.

Ever since Shūzé gave Tsunade and the others a starting point, Tsunade and the others have been constantly flipping through the documents of Konoha and the Senju clan.

However, this is also a massive project, and it's impossible to complete it easily.

Although it seems good for them to be doing this, at least Tsunade hasn't been indulging in gambling dens lately, and she hasn't been drinking herself silly.

But it has indeed affected their lives, at least meal times are no longer on time.

“But this is good, it creates opportunities for us.”

Shūzé winked at Xī Yán, immediately causing Xī Yán's face to turn red, she really couldn't hold back anymore.

“Hey! Big brother, big sister!”

Fortunately, they were almost at the Ninja Academy by now.

Just then, suddenly several voices came from a distance, which immediately attracted the attention of Shūzé and Xī Yán.

Looking up, they saw a kid with yellow hair running towards them.

Behind him, there was also a pineapple-headed little guy with a lazy look on his face, and a chubby little guy who was constantly eating potato chips with a curious expression.

Not only that, but not far away, he seemed to see two 'acquaintances' walking towards them.

“It's you, Naruto.”

Shūzé touched the little yellow-haired boy's head, looking at the little guys around him, he couldn't help but sigh, 'Time flies' ah.

“Big brother, big sister, you are…”

Naruto was particularly excited to see Shūzé and the others. Although he could usually see them, and Shūzé and the others would still help him improve his life slightly.

At the same time, Shūzé would also constantly tease him about ramen, but he never really let him pay the bill.

But the number of times they met was still small, so Naruto would appear particularly excited every time they met.

However, after the excitement, when he saw Karin, he suddenly froze for a moment.

“She is…”

“She is a senior student, and she even has the same surname as you, both are Uzumaki, didn't I tell you?”

Shikamaru walked over with Choji, and Choji nodded constantly upon hearing Shikamaru's words.

“That's right, Shikamaru said it, but you don't seem to have taken it to heart at all.”

“Is that so?”

Naruto smiled awkwardly, he really hadn't taken this matter too seriously, or rather, he hadn't paid attention to it at all.

After listening to Shūzé and Xī Yán's advice, although Naruto is not a good boy now, he still skips class and plays around.

But he really no longer does any pranks to make himself disliked, he values his current friends who have a good relationship with him.

Shikamaru, Choji, and even Kiba are all his good friends, and there is also Shino, who is often invisible and doesn't talk much but is very loyal.

Besides that, there is Sasuke, who doesn't get along with him very well, but their relationship can't be said to be particularly bad. He really hasn't paid too much attention to other people.

He didn't even think that this little girl was actually from Shūzé's family!

“Idiot…”

Just as he was feeling awkward, suddenly a light voice came from behind him, and even though the voice was not loud, Naruto instantly knew who it was!

“Bastard Sasuke, what are you talking about!”

“Tch.”

Sasuke snorted lightly, but didn't step forward, his eyes were a little shifty, of course he knew Shūzé, and it was because he knew him that he didn't dare to go up.

He couldn't forget the examiner who had taught his brother a lesson.

“Senior, hello.”

Sasuke was a little timid, but Uchiha Izumi, who sent him over, wasn't. She walked over with a smile.

Although she also couldn't forget Shūzé's lesson to Uchiha Itachi, those were all things of the past.

“Long time no see, I didn't expect to meet senior here.”

“You are… Uchiha Itachi's friend, Uchiha Izumi, right?”

Shūzé pretended to ponder for a moment before suddenly realizing, then said with a smile.

“I remember Itachi mentioned you, and I remember you were also there during the exam, I didn't expect you to be so big in the blink of an eye.”

“Senior, you're not that much older than me…”

Uchiha Izumi wasn't like Uchiha Itachi, keeping everything bottled up in her heart, and at this moment she seemed to realize something.

“Speaking of which, senior, do you often run into Itachi?”

“Yeah, I can run into him, aren't you guys from the same clan, shouldn't you be running into him even more?”

Shūzé shrugged, then he was also a little puzzled.

“Also, why are you sending this kid over, shouldn't it be his parents or Itachi himself?”

“Father and mother both have things to do, and so does brother, who is as carefree as you.”

Sasuke curled his lips and said in a low voice.

“And I believe in brother, if he were taking the exam now, he would definitely be able to beat you!”

Shūzé couldn't help but laugh a little upon hearing this. Uchiha Itachi still maintains a respectful appearance when he sees him now.

Why is it that his younger brother doesn't have any fear when he sees him?

“Hey, bastard, what are you talking about!”

Before Shūzé could speak, Naruto couldn't hold back anymore, and was about to argue with Sasuke with his fists raised.

Karin didn't speak, although she felt that Sasuke was very handsome, this sentence made her feel very dissatisfied.

“Alright, Naruto.”

Shūzé put his hand on the little yellow-haired boy's head, he thought for a moment and suddenly said with a smile.

“Maybe, but it shows one thing.”

"What?"

Sasuke was somewhat flustered, and Itachi Izumi was also a little helpless. Hearing Shuzawa's words, he subconsciously asked.

"Your relationship with your brother is really good!"

Shuzawa blinked, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became even brighter.

"I believe your relationship can always be the same."

"Itachi, do you have time? There are some things I want to talk to you about."

Inside the Uchiha clan, after Sasuke was sent to class by Uchiha Izumi, Uchiha Fugaku found his eldest son alone.

This was intentionally arranged by him. There were some things he really wanted to talk to his good eldest son about alone.

Especially under the current circumstances!

"Father, if there's anything, please make it short. I have to go back to the Anbu today."

Uchiha Itachi stood up respectfully and bowed slightly to his father, his expression as respectful as ever.

But in this kind of respect, Uchiha Fugaku seemed to feel a trace of estrangement.

"Itachi, you should know what kind of situation the clan has reached now."

Uchiha Fugaku sighed. He didn't know when the relationship between father and son had become like this, but he wasn't interested in thinking about it now.

"Some things cannot be changed by us. Even if I don't want to, can we disobey the will of the entire clan?

All of this is because Konoha has gone too far. They have never truly trusted us!"

"Trust?"

Uchiha Itachi shook his head. He didn't answer this question, because in his opinion, the clan's actions made it difficult to gain the village's trust.

"Do you know the root of all this?"

Uchiha Fugaku continued, some things had to be explained and clarified.

"Konoha was built by the Uchiha and Senju together. Admittedly, Uchiha Madara's departure had an impact on the clan.

But none of us chose to betray Konoha with Uchiha Madara. We stayed and worked hard to create the current Konoha!

But what about the result? Konoha has always been wary of the power of our clan, wary that someone among us will become the second Uchiha Madara.

They are hostile to us, starting with the Second Hokage. They have never treated us as their own people!

Now, our demands are not high. We only want to take back everything that belongs to us. We must fight for a future for the Uchiha clan.

Now you understand, Itachi, we are fighting for the future of the clan, for our own legitimate rights!"

Uchiha Fugaku spoke with impassioned words, and to some extent, there was nothing wrong with what he said.

Aside from their own problems, all the problems naturally belonged to others.

"Hostility?"

Uchiha Itachi murmured. Suddenly, he thought of the letter Shisui left him, which talked about the problem of Danzo Shimura.

In Shisui's letter, the tragedy of the Uchiha was the result of Danzo's constant efforts!

Originally, he was still doubtful, but looking at his father's words, he understood that I'm afraid that Danzo Shimura had also done a lot of things behind the scenes.

But all of this was meaningless now. He gently shook his head and said.

"Father, I understand what you mean, but I'm afraid this matter is not easy, and..."

"Are you talking about Konoha's Wood Release, Shizawa Hideki?"

Uchiha Fugaku didn't know what Uchiha Itachi meant, he continued calmly.

But this time, he also changed his method. In just a moment, his eyes had already turned into the Mangekyo Sharingan!

"These eyes..."

This was the first time Uchiha Itachi had discovered that his father actually had such eyes!

All along, his father seemed like an ordinary Uchiha ninja, with obvious pride, but he hadn't shown much strength.

Perhaps because he was in a high position and didn't need to do it himself, coupled with the fact that he hadn't gone to the front line for a long time, even if he had the name of 'Evil Eye', no one thought he was very powerful.

But who would have thought that he was hiding so deeply!

The power of the Mangekyo Sharingan erupted, and in an instant, Uchiha Itachi had been brought into a genjutsu.

"The clan will be victorious."

Uchiha Fugaku's voice echoed in the illusion, and various pictures appeared around him.

"We will not allow the village to suffer too much damage. Our goal is only 'decapitation', to get rid of those who are hostile to us.

The rest are not to be feared, because they are all 'whoever wins, helps whom'. Itachi, you are a member of the Anbu, and we all need your strength.

Shizawa Hideki is a great trouble, but I'm afraid he won't be so wary of the members of the Anbu.

I hope that for the sake of the clan, for the sake of our future, you can truly do something that should be done.

Not only Shizawa Hideki, but I also hope that you can get more information about the Hokage and others.

The opportunity is right in front of us, and victory is at our fingertips. This time, we must not miss or give up.

It's time to vindicate the clan, it's time to take back what belongs to us. Do you know what you should do, Itachi!"

Uchiha Itachi silently watched in the illusion as he solved Shizawa Hideki through some special means, while the Anbu was entangled by a large number of external invaders.

Inside the village, the prisoners in the prison launched a riot, and they rushed out of the prison to constantly fight against the Konoha ninjas.

Flames were burning, smoke was billowing, and the Uchiha people finally ascended to the Hokage Building and obtained their victory!
