Chapter 396 The show begins
"Fake...? In other words, your goal is not the real Book of Seal... Just when others discover it, they will take it for granted that you have stolen the result of the Book of Seal?"
After spending many years with Naruto, the third-generation Naruto's strange logic of not playing according to the routine, Naruto's slightest understanding of his strange logic of playing cards was also grasped most of the regularity. Then, his face slowly faded away, and at Naruto's prompt, he quickly realized Naruto's true purpose. With his brow raised, he continued to ask in confusion.
"But, what are you doing? Tuya Naruto, at least you can say that your child is immature and too willful and naughty to explain it clearly... But if you really steal the Book of Seals, then your reputation is not..."
"It will become even more embarrassing, right? Hehe, don't worry, Grandpa Naruto, I've been used to such small things for a long time!"
Naruto obviously expected the concerns of the third-generation Hokage. But even so, Naruto had the reason to "steal the book". Then, before the third-generation Hokage finished speaking, he took over the conversation on his own, Naruto, who should have been troubled by this problem, comforted the third-generation Hokage.
"So, as long as there are friends... no matter how others look at me!"
"My friends...ah...ah, this kind of rhetoric is exactly the same as when you were a child, with no change at all... I really don't know if you should be a little guy who is a good person or a loner..."
Hearing Naruto's words, the word "habit" in his mouth made a little apology and self-blame appear in the depths of Naruto's eyes. Then, based on his own understanding of Naruto, he knew that once the little guy in front of him would be difficult to persuade him to change, he gave up his useless preaching attempt. Instead, he paused a little and asked Naruto directly that the answer he wanted most at the moment.
"So, can you tell grandpa... why did you suddenly want to steal the Book of Seal?"
"Well... I can't say it's me..."
When asked about the question of the third-generation Naruto, unless the time is not ripe, Naruto, who trusts and admires the third-generation Naruto, has always answered questions and questions. After sorting out the verbal logic, he responded as briefly as possible without thinking.
"It should be said that in the past few days, as the 'tail of the crane' that ended in two consecutive graduation exams, I might encounter someone who instigated me to do this, which could almost be considered a felony of defecting from the village."
It is obvious that the person Naruto mentioned was in the original plot, which almost made Naruto usher in the finale in the first episode...
That is, the invigilator Mizuki, who is responsible for conducting the third graduation assessment with Iruka in the Ninja School graduation exam - Mizuki.
"Oh? So that's it..."
After Naruto said this, the nervousness and concerns that appeared on the face of the third generation Naruto's face not only disappeared in an instant. He also felt deeply sympathetic to Naruto's mention of Mizuki, who had never met before, and showed an unconcealed look of pity.
After all, according to Naruto, in the next few days, Mizuki, who might try to instigate Naruto to steal books, is the reason why Naruto's pranks in recent times have begun to become more and more serious. Then, according to the third generation of Naruto's perception of Naruto...
If anyone is targeted by Naruto and is an enemy, target, etc., and is not among the ranks of partners? Then, just to be alone, it seems that all of them have paid an extremely painful price so far... Not to mention, as Naruto said, I don’t know if I have eaten the courage of Bear Heart or despised myself for living too comfortably and long-term, and I am so brave that I came to provoke Naruto!
“…ah? That’s all?”
Seeing the relief and sympathy of the third generation Naruto's expression indifferently, Naruto knew in his heart that the old man in front of him had already acquiesced to his haste out of trust in him, out of his trust in him, which could almost be said to be a crazy plan that could be said to be a harmless but not a single benefit. Then, while the smile in his eyes became more and more intense, he took back the explanation he had prepared for the subsequent explanation, and blinked his eyes innocently, pretending to be innocent and teasing.
"I thought that when the third generation Naruto Grandpa Naruto found out, he would severely accuse me because he was too worried about my safety..."
"Worry? In a sense, I am indeed worried... I am just worried. Will you go too far and make someone run to me again to beg for mercy and help."
After making the decision, the third generation Naruto returned to his original appearance as an old man who was leisurely and at ease. Then, while raising his hand, he skillfully moved into the pipe in his hand and changed into the new tobacco. On the one hand, he looked like a real grandfather and grandson. As soon as Naruto finished speaking, he responded seriously and joked.
"Just treat it as a way to celebrate your safe return to the village, have done a small recovery, have done a good job of warm-up training... But remember, don't go too far."
There was no questioning too much about the reasons for the motives, nor deliberately restricting Naruto's actions... It is obvious that the level of trust in Naruto by the third generation of Naruto has not declined at all as the years pass. Instead, in the process of increasing bonds, the degree of trust is made far beyond the expectations of ordinary people!
In other words, no matter how unbelievable the action plan proposed by Naruto who did not play by the routine... As long as Naruto can ensure his own safety, the third-generation Naruto will definitely fully support it.
After all, although in Naruto's heart, his view on Konoha Ninja Village was as he said before, no partners were important... But it was precisely because of the existence of these partners that the third generation Naruto was enough to confirm that this seemed to be laughing all day long, and there would never be any behavior that would harm the interests of Konoha Ninja Village!
Of course, the premise is that the people in Konoha Ninja Village will not go to attack Naruto's friends like Danzo who seeks death...
...
"Hmm? It started so soon..."
After hearing the rapid footsteps outside the office that were getting closer and more and more crowded, the third generation Naruto immediately recalled the strange scene of the book stealing preview that was staged in this office not long ago - or yesterday - just yesterday. Then, his face turned slightly lowered his hat brim to block the change of his expression. While he looked a little bit, he looked a little bit and looked out the scenery outside the window through the floor-to-ceiling window placed in the office. While the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he said to himself helplessly.
"Although Naruto's child has indeed been previewed in advance, and he may come to steal books in the past few days... but there is no need to choose this time specifically, right?!"
At this time, Konoha Ninja Village was already shrouded in the deep night. Logically speaking, it should have been a warm time to go home and rest peacefully after the busy day of work. Even the Sandai Hokage who received the notice in advance were ready to sort out and sort the files according to the previous commuting hours, and then go home to have a leisurely meal. Due to the alternation of morning and evening shifts, the guards at the blank stalls that were less than a few minutes were even more unlikely to think that on these extremely ordinary days, someone would be brave enough to come to the Naruto office building to make trouble!
What's more, the time Naruto chose to do it can be said to be an extremely "coincidence" existence...
As if he was deliberately stuck at the time point, Naruto had just left the Naruto office building with the "Seal Book" that had dropped his bag in advance. The ordinary guards in charge of the evening shift just arrived at the post. So unexpectedly, he discovered the bad news that the "Seal Book" disappeared at the first time. As Mizuki seemed to deliberately cooperate with Naruto's actions to restore the development of the original plot, he ran around to inform him that it was the truth that Naruto stole the "Seal Book". There was almost no need for Mizuki to talk, so that everyone could easily believe that this sudden book theft incident was all carefully planned and prepared by Naruto himself!
It is precisely because of this that everyone who knew this "truth" naturally worried that Naruto, who had been discriminated against by villagers since childhood, would have discovered a way to remove his own seal from the powerful ninjutsu with abundant reserves after obtaining the Book of Seals. Then, driven by the thought of revenge on the villagers at all costs, the Nine Tails in his body were completely released, so that the Nine Tails in his body would be staged again in the Konoha Ninja Village, which had finally recovered its vitality!
This made everyone worry and busy complaining to the third-generation Naruto, and there was no time to think about it - because of the mediocre identity, Mizuki, who almost never appeared near the Naruto office building, why did this not only appear near the Naruto office building, but also "see" the entire process of Naruto stealing books with his own eyes? - This obvious huge loophole!
"This is what the child often says, "You have to do a full set of acting?" Obviously, with his current strength, even if he forced himself to break through, few people could stop him, but he still chose such a time to take action... Those who don't know will probably really think that this is Naruto's long-planned action... Ahh, I thought I could go home early today to rest. Now it seems that they will be ruined."
The moment he opened the office door, he saw the crowds of people blocking the door and complaining to him in a loud voice. After clamoring for a while, the third generation Naruto felt a little headache, and he couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his face that was laughable and crying. Then, after a little pause, he returned to a serious look while frowning. Then, a feeling of oppression gradually arose around his body, and shouted in a cold voice.
"I already know the situation... Although it has been a while since the Book of Seal was stolen. But with the strength of a child's feet, he should not have left the village yet... All the staff will be dispatched immediately! Take Naruto back!"
Of course, even if he deliberately cooperated with Naruto's performance, he knew that even if everyone in front of him could not hurt Naruto even if he took action together, he would not be able to hurt Naruto at all. But in this sentence, out of his selfish intention of pampering Naruto, the third-generation Naruto's brows were so tight that he could not help but frown a little more and more as soon as he finished speaking.
"But remember, Tsubaki Riku's current emotions must be very excited. In addition, the child has the Book of Seals compiled by the second generation Naruto himself... So, when you meet Naruto, try to pay attention to the severity and do not stimulate Naruto's emotions too much, so as not to avoid Tsubaki Riku's escape or the Book of Seals being damaged!"
"yes--!"
The words of the third generation Naruto Naruto suddenly sounded a little reasonable. In addition, the current situation is indeed quite "critical and nervous", which makes everyone who heard the orders have no time to think about the little tricks contained in it. Then, in a unanimous response, they scattered and left. Then, they were like looking for a needle in a haystack, and searching for them in a vast area of the huge Konoha Ninja Village and arresting Naruto!
And on the other side...
"Huh...Huh... Naruto, where did this kid go..."
Compared to the people who had no clue and hurriedly left for searching with their own intuition... they received a notice from Shuimu in advance and had been searching for Iruka in the village for a while. "If you can't find it in the village, it's hard to say--! That child, he hid..."
