Starting as a part-time worker from Naruto

Uzumaki Naruto raised his face, sniffed, and answered proudly with a red face: "Other kids can cry in their parents' arms, but I don't have a parent. I don't have anyone around me, and I won't cry if I'm alone!"

"You're also an excellent ninja."

Akihara Kagura praised sincerely.

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression gradually became heavy.

The old man knocked out all the tobacco leaves vigorously, put away his pipe, looked at the ramen brought by the hand-made boss and Acorus, and finally decided to give up this class completely.

"Let's eat noodles..."

"After eating the noodles, go back and rest."

"Children must go to bed early and not stay up late."

Chapter 35: The Mysterious Masked Man Appears

"Thank you for hospitality."

Ten-year-old Akihara Kagura nodded in thanks.

Perhaps it was because they were grateful for what they had received, or perhaps it was because Sarutobi Hiruzen asked them to finish their ramen in peace, Akihara Kagura was very polite.

"Thank you for hospitality."

Six-year-old Uzumaki Naruto still behaved very synchronously.

If you ignore the hair color of these two little guys, it might even make people feel that their synchronized movements are a bit like an older brother leading his younger brother.

"Go home and rest early."

Sarutobi Hiruzen picked up his pipe again.

This encounter was not completely fruitless. Sarutobi Hiruzen thought that he had already understood Akihara Kagura and was not so obsessed with guiding him. He even felt that from Akihara Kagura's attitude towards Uzumaki Naruto tonight, this kid's character was not that bad.

"I'm leaving! Bye!"

Uzumaki Naruto patted his bulging belly happily, waved goodbye to Akihara Kagura and Sarutobi Hiruzen, and walked back towards his residence.

“I can’t tell at all…”

Akihara Kagura stared at Uzumaki Naruto who was walking away.

"Oh?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen held his pipe in his mouth, looked back at Akihara Kagura who was standing there, and asked, "Kagura, what do you want to see from this little guy Naruto?"

“You can’t see that he’s sad at all.”

Akihara Kagura's eyes became somewhat gloomy, and she whispered: "If someone abandons me, I will be so sad that I will want to kill someone."

"..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen felt a little uncomfortable.

"I am leaving."

Akihara Kagura said no more and walked towards the Root Organization base.

"This kid..."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head helplessly.

The old man who had held power in Konoha for decades walked towards the Hokage Building step by step, and his voice suddenly became deep and cold.

"Kakashi, Tenzou."

As the voice fell, Hatake Kakashi and Tenzou appeared beside him instantly.

Originally, they both had a day off this morning, but when they were still resting at night, they were suddenly ordered to serve as the guards of the Hokage.

"What do you think of Akihara Kagura?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen stared at the Hokage building, not even looking at his two subordinates, and just continued to speak: "After the Chunin Exam is over, that little guy will join the Anbu, and I will assign him to your team."

"..."

Hatake Kakashi couldn't help but glance at Sarutobi Hiruzen.

The Third Hokage did not look back, and his steps were firm. He did not seem to want to negotiate with anyone. This was an order from the Hokage.

"Yes."

Hatake Kakashi quickly lowered his head.

As for Tianzang standing next to him, he has never had much say in such occasions.

Sarutobi Hiruzen suddenly stopped and continued seriously, "By the way, don't underestimate that little guy. He has a strong talent for Wood Release. From what we can see now, he has been able to exert a very strong combat ability."

"Yes."

Hatake Kakashi and Tenzou looked at each other.

Sarutobi Hiruzen mentioned Akihara Kagura's shortcomings again: "But that little guy's basic ninja education is not up to standard. His temperament is a bit too extreme. We can't leave him in the village to be taught by the leading jonin. You and Tenzang can only teach him more in the future."

"This……"

Kakashi Hatake suddenly felt a little troubled.

Because when he first met Akihara Kagura, he felt that the little guy was not a normal child, and he would kill people for Shimura Danzo at any time...

However, whether it was the time he met him at Ichiraku Ramen this morning, or when he heard that the kid had pretended to be him and deceived the examinees, almost causing a major accident, Kakashi Hatake felt that the child's character must be worse than he had imagined.

but……

The Anbu must obey orders from the Hokage.

"Yes."

Hatake Kakashi could only seriously agree, and then suggested: "Since Akihara Kagura possesses the Wood Release Bloodline, let's put him in Tenzo's class..."

"..."

Tenzo looked at Hatake Kakashi in disbelief!

Tenzo is an honest man who believes that Hatake Kakashi is a reliable senior.

At this moment, Tenzang suddenly heard that Hatake Kakashi would give him a big trouble, and his psychological activities finally became active and could not be suppressed.

Hey, hey, hey, are you kidding me, Kakashi-senpai!

You obviously know how awkward the relationship between Akihara Kagura and I is. That little guy yells at me to kill him every day, so why do you still put him in my class? You must know what kind of torture I will suffer!

"can."

Sarutobi Hiruzen approved Hatake Kakashi's proposal.

After the Hokage finished giving his orders, he waved his hand at them and said, "Okay, you guys can leave first. I'll walk by myself."

"Yes."

The two figures instantly disappeared behind Sarutobi Hiruzen.

In the street alleys.

After leaving the Hokage, Tenzang finally couldn't hold back anymore and said anxiously, "Hey, senior, put me together with that little guy Kagura..."

"I believe you can do it well."

Hatake Kakashi reached out and patted Tenzo's shoulder, and continued: "Tenzo, I have always believed that you will also become a reliable senior."

"But……"

"Tenzo."

Hatake Kakashi interrupted him and whispered, "That child has the same Wood Release Bloodline as you. Perhaps this is also a fateful encounter. I hope you can let him become someone like you who silently protects Konoha in the dark."

"All right……"

Tianzang could only scratch his head helplessly and proposed his own plan: "I will first teach him to slowly develop the Wood Release Bloodline Ninjutsu. If he encounters any problems, I will ask the seniors..."

"can."

Hatake Kakashi agreed and reached into his pocket: "Since today's escort mission is over, go back and rest early."

"Ah."

Tenzang scratched his head in distress and headed towards home.

"..."

Hatake Kakashi lowered his head and leaned against the wall.

The brain of Kakashi, the famous cold-blooded ninja in the ninja world, gradually became empty. Most of the time, he himself didn't even know what he was thinking.

It seems that Hatake Kakashi's fate is destined to be loneliness.

When he was a child, his father suddenly committed suicide, leaving him an orphan while he was in school; when he grew up, his close teammates died in wars one after another; later, his teacher and his wife both died in the Nine-Tails Rebellion, leaving Kakashi Hatake feeling suffocated by fate.

Kakashi Hatake felt that his future life would be in a muddle. He would always stay in the Anbu to carry out endless missions, and there would never be anything worth being happy about again.

After a long time.

Hatake Kakashi stood up and left the alley.

After Hatake Kakashi left, a mysterious masked man in a black robe appeared quietly, looked at the direction he left and snorted coldly.

"Humph, this piece of trash..."

"Hahahaha……"

A pitcher plant monster with a black and white body slowly emerged from the ground. The white half of its face laughed and said to the mysterious masked man: "It seems that there is no need to pay attention to Hatake Kakashi now? Shouldn't we pay more attention to the Wood Release brat who appeared again in Konoha?"

"maybe……"

"Can that brat become a helper in the Moon Eye Project?"

Chapter 36 What did that bastard say to you?

"Wood Release Bloodline may not be of any use to the Moon Eye Project."

The mysterious masked man didn't seem to like the power of Wood Release, and said coldly: "I have also awakened Wood Release bloodline, and I don't think Wood Release can be more powerful than the Mangekyō Sharingan."

"..."

That must be because your Wood Release is too weak!

The pitcher plant monsters knew this very well, but they had no intention of arguing with the mysterious masked man. They knew that the mysterious masked man's Mangekyō Sharingan was indeed more powerful than his Wood Release.

"All right."

There seem to be two wills within the pitcher plant monster.

The black half of the pitcher plant monster's head moved its mouth slightly, and it spoke in a hoarse and gloomy voice: "We just happen to be in Konoha, so let's observe the talent of that Wood Release kid. The Moon Eye Project requires a lot of powerful helpers, and one more person is always useful..."

"Besides, I just went to Konoha's Death Forest to observe."

"Although I didn't see that brat using Wood Release, there is still a lot of life energy left in the forest, proving that the brat's Wood Release is not useless."

"Alright."

"If that little devil is really useful... a little devil full of darkness and flaws, it would be easy for me to deal with it."

The mysterious masked man didn't even look at the pitcher plant monster beside him. He raised his palm nonchalantly and clenched it into a fist: "I have a chess piece in my hand that can deal with him. With just a little trick, I can make him deserted by his friends and have nowhere to go..."

"Oh?"

The pitcher plant monster became a little curious.

"Some time ago, someone sneaked into the Hidden Mist Village and I discovered it. It was Ryoma Aburame, a subordinate of Danzo Shimura. I caught him with my own hands."

The mysterious masked man spoke of his plan, his tone unable to help but sound somewhat complacent: "As long as I use Wood Release Ninjutsu to kill Aburame Ryoma, and then throw the body to the people of Konoha, I can frame that brat Akihara Kagura..."

In theory, the plan is somewhat simple.

If it is actually implemented, there is a great probability that the goal can be achieved, because there are not many people in the ninja world who possess the Wood Release bloodline.

"The rest of the time, I'll just have to continue observing that little devil."
