I, Giyuu Uchiha, am not hated!

In front of Tsunade's ancestral home.

As soon as Sarutobi Hiruzen stretched out his hand, before he could knock on the door, the door opened from the inside.

Four children, two tall and two short, looked at each other with the old man Hokage without a hat, not expecting to see each other here.

"You are all here!"

The surprise in Sarutobi Hiruzen's tone was not fake.

Since Naruto went to school, the ANBU's round-the-clock monitoring of him has been changed to irregular spot checks.

Usually, Tenzo or Sandai would check the seal situation in person late at night, and basically ignore it during the day.

As usual, Moonlight Hayate, who monitored the outsider Purgatory Anjuro, was so moved and humiliated after receiving a pot of hot tea and a blanket on the roof that he was unwilling to continue doing this work. The third generation also The surveillance was removed accordingly.

From that day on, he knew that Anjuro might have a talent for perception. In this case, surveillance is meaningless.

Besides, the other party was originally sent by Tsunade. This kind of process is not necessary at all. It will also make the child wary and wary of the village, so it is simply not necessary.

Therefore, Sarutobi Hiruzen did not know about the situation in Senju's former residence.

"Grandpa Hokage, why are you here?"

Naruto smiled widely, and all the doubts he had in the room just now were thrown out of the sky.

"Hokage-sama."

Sasuke bowed politely, and Giyuu just nodded as usual.

Anjuro, on the other hand, was afraid of disturbing Naruto's questions, so he didn't speak, only smiling politely. But anyone who sees this face can feel his kindness and welcome.

The Third Generation, on the other hand, realized that Naruto's trust and dependence on him had not weakened, so he explained in a pleasant manner.

"Oh, Purgatory classmate is one of my students who specifically asked me to take care of him.

"He has been in the village for so long and I haven't even seen him. This really doesn't make sense. So I came here specifically to have a chat with him."

Sandai smiled back at Anjuro as a greeting.

Then he gently rubbed Naruto's hair and asked casually: "Grandpa heard that you were injured in class yesterday, but I was very busy and couldn't spare the time, so I could only tell Iruka to go see you. , he has been worried about your injury. How about you, did you have a good time with him yesterday afternoon? "

"Yeah! Iruka-sensei took me to eat Ichiraku Ramen, and even added barbecued pork for me."

Naruto nodded heavily.

In his life, it was rare for an adult to play the role of a father.

Although Iruka spoke awkwardly and always refused to look directly at him, Naruto could still feel the other person's kindness.

"That's good."

A smile appeared on Sandaime's face, he patted Naruto's shoulder gently, and then looked at Giyu and Sasuke.

"Let me guess, you are here to train with Xingjurou! Although it is good to be so serious, you should have a good rest during the holiday. You know, don't work too hard, otherwise it will only have the opposite effect."

After saying that, he stroked his beard and smiled for a while, very satisfied with the scene of Uchiha mingling with people outside of his own race.

What's more, these are the two sons of Fugaku, the clan leader.

"Okay, it's time to make lunch. You all should go home. Purgatory-san and I still have something to say."

"My home is not far from here."

Before leaving, Naruto looked at Anjurou and said, "Would you like me to prepare a meal and send it over?"

"Is it really possible"! "

When he mentioned eating, Xingjuro's eyes were a little brighter than before, almost glowing incandescently.

Yiyong had to pretend not to know him, so he never brought him any more food. Recently, in order to save money and pay off debts, he ate very sparingly.

"That would be great! I've been looking forward to it so much!"

"Then I'll come back in an hour!"

Naruto liked the feeling of someone looking forward to him, and an encouraging smile appeared on his face.

Sasuke watched with itch in his teeth, but he didn't want to get angry in front of the Hokage, so he had no choice but to keep his head down and leave with Giyuu.

After more than ten seconds, only Anjuro and Sarutobi Hiruzen were left.

"So you are the Hokage of this village! The third one on the rock must be your statue. It's so majestic! But I didn't expect you to be so approachable. It's really surprising!"

Xingshourou himself is a daughter of a famous family, and there is nothing wrong with the etiquette when meeting his elders for the first time.

The statue of the third generation is the highest among the four Hokage Rocks, and it also has the most serious expression. This is not flattering to Anjuro.

"I have already heard from Miss Shizune that I am really grateful to you for taking care of school! I like the atmosphere in the school very much!"

If he hadn't gone to school, it would have been much more troublesome for him to properly "get to know" Giyuu than it was now.

"Hahaha, it's just like what others said, your voice is really loud."

[Originally, the purpose of sending this child to school was to help him integrate here as quickly as possible, but I didn’t expect that he would integrate so well. 】

Being friends with Uchiha, he did such a difficult thing as he said he would do it, it was incredible.

In just a few days, the attitude of the students in Anjuro's class had changed from liking him to worshiping him. This was unprecedented in the history of Ninja School.

Sarutobi Hiruzen sighed.

"There is a ninja in the village who has a voice and eyebrows similar to yours. I will introduce you to him some other time. I think you will get along very well. Anjuro, you were introduced here by my student Tsunade, so I call you this You, can you?”

"completely fine!"

Xingjulang opened the door, "Please come in! The yard has just been cleaned!"

Entering the courtyard, Sarutobi Hiruzen showed a nostalgic look.

In the past, this place was connected to the Hokage's Former Residence Museum next to it. He also played and practiced here.

But as the Senju clan disbanded and merged with the people, it has been more than ten years since the last owner of this place, Tsunade, left, and the third generation of Hokage has not been here for a long time.

"How's it going, Xingjuro, are you still used to living here?"

he asked politely.

“Everything here is great!”

Anjuro replied sincerely, "The scenery also makes people feel comfortable."

"I can rest assured that."

So Sandai came to sit down on the stone table in the courtyard while chatting about the current situation, and the conversation began to get down to business.

"During this period, there have been a lot of troubles between the village and the Fire Country that I need to deal with, so I haven't had time to see you."

The Third Hokage took out a scroll as long as an adult's hand from his pocket.

"This time, I brought you a meeting gift. In other words, it is more appropriate to say that the property returns to its original owner."

The old man placed the somewhat old scroll in the center of the table. The whirlpool mark on it reminded Anjuro of the special-shaped door lock at the door of Kyuubi Prison. It seemed to be the same shape on the back of the ninja vests in the village. , you can also see this sign.

"Excuse me, is this?!"

Anjuro looked at the third generation with some surprise. What does it mean to return the property to its original owner?

It was his first time in this village, and he couldn't see what this thing had to do with him.

"Oh, it seems you don't know what's special about you and your relationship with Konoha."

Sandai pondered for a while, and then took the topic in another unexpected direction.

"Speaking of which, I heard Mr. Oishisuke say that your dream, Anjuro, is for everyone to die of a healthy life instead of dying in an accident, right?"

"That's right! Although it sounds difficult to achieve, I will work tirelessly in this direction!"

Xingjulang sat upright and declared.

"Well, it is indeed an amazing dream."

The third generation nodded in approval, and then changed his tone.

"It's just that human lifespan has its limit. If a person does not die from an accident in his life, he will often die of illness at the age of sixty or seventy. However, there was once a group of people in this world who, if there were no accidents in their life, would not live to be eighty or ninety years old. It’s strange that at the age of 120, he looks similar to an outsider who is 60 or 70 years old.”

Having said this, Sandai raised his right hand and pointed at the end of Anjuro's hair.

“The characteristics of this clan are that they have varying degrees of red hair, as well as terrifying vitality and perception abilities that are far beyond ordinary people.

"Once this clan begins to practice ninjutsu, their chakra will often be several times or dozens of times that of ordinary people. They are called the Uzumaki clan, and Anjuro, your appearance and physical strength also meet this standard."

Since then, the topic has finally gotten back on track.

Anjuro was stunned for a second, and then he immediately reacted: "Is it Uzumaki Naruto's whirlpool?"

"You are indeed very smart, that Uzumaki."

The third-generation old man nodded, "Although he has blond hair, the child's mother has red hair."

There is nothing to hide about this. If Naruto loves to go to the library, sooner or later he will find out what his last name represents.

However, as long as he doesn't know that he is actually the son of the Fourth Hokage, the other three generations can prevaricate.

Only then did Anjuro understand. No wonder this body was so powerful. Not only did it possess twenty times the chakra of righteousness, but even his own intuitive ability was magnified exponentially.

It turns out that the special feature of Uzumaki Naruto's body is not entirely due to the demon fox inside him.

"So do you understand? Although your surname is Purgatory, you actually inherited the precious blood of the Uzumaki clan."

The third generation "restored" the origin of Anjuro on the spot. Anjuro was not too excited or refuted, but just listened quietly.

"The Uzumaki clan are distant relatives and in-laws of the Senju clan who founded Konoha. Not only is Uzumaki Naruto's mother a Uzumaki clan member, but Tsunade's grandmother is also the former owner of the other residence you are responsible for cleaning, Mito-sama. , is also a member of the Uzumaki clan. She is the wife of the first Hokage and the founding father of this village. Therefore, although you are an orphan, in terms of blood, Naruto and Tsunade are your distant relatives. . This village is also your second hometown.”

This is something that the third generation must declare.

In addition to Sasuke as a friend and Giyuu as a rival, Hiruzen Sarutobi eagerly "created" the third bond for Anjuro, which is "blood and family ties."

Orphans who have no relatives in the world, when they learn that they still have relatives, they can't help but look for them.

But Purgatory Anjuro's distant relative lives in this village, and is still closely related to his friends and rivals.

In this way, his emotions are already involved.

"It is precisely because you have such a connection with Konoha that Tsunade sent you here. The medical expenses she proposed are a bit unreasonable, but asking you to come here to work to pay back the money is actually just a disguise. I will protect you. After all, you and Naruto are very likely to be the last descendants of the Uzumaki clan."

By the way, Tsunade transformed the contractual relationship between the two into giving and receiving favors, which was also a carefully prepared word by the third generation.

"The last descendant?!"

"Um."

When the topic came to this point, the Third Hokage's face darkened, and he said rather sadly: "The Uzumaki clan's own ninja village is called Uzushio Village. Because it is proficient in sealing techniques, has a long lifespan, and is an ally of Konoha, it is surrounded by the other four. The great powers were afraid of it. At that time, the other four countries secretly planned to send Iwa Ninja and Sand Ninja to divert Konoha's attention, and then the Mist Ninja and Kumo Ninja sent troops to raid, and wiped Uzushio Village off the map of the Ninja World overnight. Almost slaughtered all the Uzumaki bloodline.

"By the time we reacted, it was already too late. The Uzumaki clan was scattered to death. As of now, you and Naruto are the last and youngest Uzumaki clan members we can find. Speaking of which, It was all my decision-making mistakes that led to such a tragedy. Maybe your family managed to survive today by hiding its real surname and changing it to Purgatory."

What he said was 80% true and 20% false. It was not only to strengthen Anjuro's sense of identification with the Uzumaki clan, but also to give the other four great powers an eye-opener, creating the idea that "everyone outside Konoha is the enemy" An illusion, in order to strengthen Anjuro's identification with his "ally" Konoha.

If Anjuro was truly a member of the Uzumaki clan, he would have been filled with emotion and shed tears of regret. After all, this is the pain of national subjugation and species destruction. How can it be untouched?

But what the third generation didn't know was that Purgatory Anjuro knew that he was not a Uzumaki clan member, so he didn't react so much.

On the contrary, from the words of Sarutobi Hiruzen, he had a clearer understanding of the logic of ninja actions.

Just because of the threat to their abilities, a race and a village were massacred overnight. The behavior of these ninjas is so arrogant.

Considering his previous conversation with Kyuubi and the lock on the prison door; and considering that Naruto, who was still a child but had Uzumaki bloodline, was used as a container, Anjurou could probably understand the so-called Uzumaki clan's treatment of other ninjas. What does the "threat" to the village refer to?

It should be their ability to seal the ultimate weapon "Tailed Beast".

"I'm sorry, I can't help but feel sad when I talk about this."

As if he really felt regret and guilt, Hiruzen Sarutobi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then pointed to the scroll on the table.

"However, although there are not many Uzumaki clan members left in the world, Mito-sama still made a copy of the entire Uzumaki Village legacy and entrusted it to Konoha. The sealing technique that this clan is proud of has been It’s a required course to become a jounin in Konoha, but only what’s on this scroll means——”

The old man raised his finger, unlocked the seal on the scroll, unfolded the contents, and showed it to Anjuro.

"Only red-haired Uzumaki clan members can practice."

When the four words "King Kong Blockade" on the scroll catalog entered Anjuro's eyes, through the remaining Nine-tails chakra in his body, the Nine-tails' true self looked at everything outside, and his hair exploded!

"Damn it! Damn it! That vicious old woman with red hair! She actually left such a thing behind!!!"

It's a pity that being able to observe the outside through the chakra left in Anjuro's body is already the limit of what Kyuubi can do. Otherwise, he really wants to give the old man a good beating and tear the scroll to pieces.

"I have been worried that I will never be able to find a successor for Mito-sama and this scroll."

The third-generation old hand gently stroked the same old scroll, and said earnestly: "But I heard from the ANBU who was responsible for looking after you before, that you can easily find him in the invisible, which should be some perceptive ninja talent... ...Plus, your hair color has a bit of red in it, so I brought it here to see if you can learn the two techniques above."

He pointed to the contents on the scroll and introduced it.

"'Kagura Heart Eye'. This is the perception-based secret technique of the Uzumaki clan. If you practice it to the extreme, you can sense all creatures with chakra within ten kilometers."

Xingjulang, who was not very interested in this scroll at first, his eyes became extremely bright.

What does the ten-kilometer sensing range mean?

This means that if he can learn this technique, it will be very convenient to search for people who need help outside and save a lot of time.

"And this 'King Kong Blockade' can act as a weapon and create a barrier. In theory, as long as your chakra is strong enough, you can use it to suppress everything with chakra..."

The old man paused, "However, these two secret techniques can only be practiced by the red-haired Uzumaki clan members."

If Naruto could practice the Vajra Blockade, he wouldn't have to go to such trouble to make Anjuro feel good about Konoha.

"These two techniques not only represent the Uzumaki clan's trust in Konoha, but also represent Mito-sama's expectations for future generations."

Seeing Anjurou showing interest, the third generation played the emotional card again.

"Now that your family has passed away, and the Uzushio Village where your clan members gathered is gone, then Konoha is your home. Accept this, and you will become part of this family."

The third generation's eyes were gentle, but he looked closely at Anjuro's expression.

"Since you are family, you don't have to pay back the cost of Tsunade's treatment."

The cancellation of the huge sum of fifteen million taels is just an added benefit.

After saying that, Sarutobi Hiruzen said nothing and quietly waited for Anjurou's answer.

Anjuro also understood.

If he accepts this scroll, it means that he has signed a promise to join Konoha and will no longer be a guest from now on.

The scroll in front of him, which could help countless lives, instantly turned into hot coals.

And the old man in front of him, who in Giyuu's words was simply "irresponsible", became complicated in Anjuro's eyes.

Putting yourself in his shoes, if he were a real whirlpool orphan, after what he just said...

Unconsciously, Xingjulang became wary of this old man.

He seemed to be able to understand why Tsunade was still out and refused to come back even though she could see blood visually and even quit drinking.

Because after she returned home, everything these veteran ninjas said and did had a strong purpose. It was impossible to tell what purpose and emotion he had for saying or doing this.

【What a place that makes people unhappy! 】

Sarutobi Hiruzen's behavior made Anjurou, who had nothing to hesitate, even more determined.

"Please forgive me for refusing!"

His rejection was loud and unexpected, like a midnight bell, exploding in the mind of the Third Hokage.

"What?"

He was no longer in the city and even asked directly.

To be honest, he never explicitly said "I'm here to ask you to officially join the village" from beginning to end, so what is the child in front of him rejecting? Or, at his current age, he actually saw through his subtext?

"I know what you mean!"

Anjuro directly put the words that the third generation did not say clearly on the table, "But forgive me for not being able to work for any ninja village! Konoha is a place where strong people gather, but my power is not used to make the strong stronger. It’s for protecting the weak who can’t protect themselves!”

Anjuro didn't care about Sandai's face that was gradually turning red, "I will work hard to pay back Tsunade-dono's debt as soon as possible. Please take this scroll back with you! I am very grateful for this gift from In return for the body and strength of the Uzumaki clan, as long as I am here for one day, I will take good care of and protect Naruto like Giyu, and I will also clean Tsunade-dono's house and the residence of Mito-senpai! I will do this with or without this scroll, this is my promise!”

Sandai looked at Anjuro who stood up, and was stunned for a moment, feeling both angry and ashamed.

Annoyed, he used the secret technique of the Uzumaki clan in exchange for the other party's promise to join Konoha. As a result, today's whole set of words was completely exposed and put on the table, and Anjuro actually rejected him without any hesitation.

What is shameful is that once upon a time, he was just like the child in front of him, a straight-talking and idealistic person, but now, in order to get this child to join Konoha, he was planning and calculating like a spider, which seemed despicable and dark.

He looked over Anjuro's shoulder to the pond behind him.

The phantom of his childhood was there, looking down at him quietly, with eyes that seemed to contain both condemnation and understanding.

When he first became a disciple of the Second Hokage, he learned water escape there.

At that time, the Second Hokage discovered the difference between him and Danzo. One is light, the other is dark. Now as he grows older, he is almost becoming a combination of the two.

"Are you okay?"

The reality in front of the Third Hokage and the past gradually changed. When he stepped back, his feet were unsteady and he fell down. Anjuro quickly helped him and let him sit back on the stone bench.

The third generation looked into Anjuro's eyes.

The child knew what he was talking about, but there was no anger or complaint in his eyes at this moment, only true care and concern.

Such a big heart and this unique hair color reminded Sandai of the most outstanding young man he had ever seen - Namikaze Minato.

He thought he would never find an heir like Minato, but now...

The distracted eyes of the third generation gradually solidified, and finally there was a trace of the shadow of the former Shinobi on the statue.

【You must keep this child! 】

[A Hokage with a broad heart like the First Lord must not be let go like this! 】

Save! Save! He must restore his impression in this child's mind.

[Some people can only treat each other sincerely! 】

"This scroll is not mine in the first place."

He stabilized his mind and stretched out his hand to motion for Xingshou Lang to sit next to him, "But I can't just give it to you before I'm sure you can use it. I've just studied the above content, so I'll guide you by the way. If you can Learn it, and it’s up to you to save it.”

Sandai's face seemed ten years older, but his voice was unexpectedly young.

"Are you sure?!"

Xingjulang emphasized again, "Even if you teach me, I will still..."

"I see."

Sandai interrupted him with a wry smile, and then said in a deep voice: "Just think of it as me trying to make up for my debt to Uzushio Village."

"I see!"

Anjuro made an oath, "I will also do my best to gather and protect the Uzumaki clan members scattered outside!"

This item was also added to his to-do list.

"If I find a real red-haired Uzumaki clan, I will also give this scroll to them!"

He would not be like Giyuu a year ago, who felt that since he was not a "real" Uchiha, he was qualified to learn other people's techniques.

Techniques like Kagura's Heart's Eye can help Anjuro save countless lives. Since he has such physical conditions, he must play his best role.

As for this oath, just think of it as making some compensation to the real Uzumaki clan members.

"Let me first tell you the principle of this technique..."

In this way, Sandai gave full play to his knowledge reserve as a "Doctor of Ninjutsu" and explained the essence of this jutsu in less than ten minutes. Just because he can't use it doesn't mean he can't analyze it.

"Try it. If you can practice, I will leave this scroll here."

Little did he know that the Kyuubi in Naruto's body was almost going crazy.

"Don't try! Don't try! Don't try!"

As long as he can use Kagura's Heart Eye, he can use King Kong to block it! When I think that this kid can enter this sealed space at will through Naruto, it is really as big as nine heads.

However, it backfired.

When Xingshou Lang completed the mudra and clasped his palms together, an invisible ripple rippled in the air, spread to a distance of more than twenty meters, and then stopped.

"continue!"

Sarutobi Hiruzen noticed the chakra diffusing in the air, and his face lit up with joy.

Next time, it will be thirty meters; next time, it will be fifty meters...

In this way, after forty times of continuous proficiency, the chakra in Anjuro's body was almost exhausted, and he finally expanded his perception range to a distance of nearly 500 meters.

Within five hundred meters, all people and psychic beasts with chakra in their bodies are presented in Xingjulang's mind in some special way, and each person's chakra has distinct characteristics just like their appearance. !

"How about it, Xingjuro, can you continue?"

When Anjojuro was using Kagura's Heart Eye, Sarutobi Hiruzen was also calculating his chakra amount, becoming more and more shocked.

Anjuro nodded and used more than forty techniques in a row. He only had a little chakra left, but there was still a lot of tailed beast chakra that had been extracted from Naruto's body. He didn't know if it was still in his body. There's no harm in it, just use it.

So he clasped his hands together again, mobilized the nine-tailed beast chakra in his body, and used Kagura's Heart Eye.

Kyuubi, who could still see what was happening, had his eyes blurred for a while, and could only rage helplessly in the sealed space.

But Anjuro was not as excited as the previous successes.

Because, this time, when he simply used the nine-tailed chakra to cast Kagura, what he saw with his inner eye was not just a life form with chakra, but full malice.

The malice was not far from the feet of the two of them.

But when he used his own chakra to use Kagura's Heart Eye just now, Anjuro was not aware of its existence.

"Hokage-sama!"

Anjuro immediately opened his eyes and shouted loudly: "There is someone five meters below our feet!"

"What!" Sandai was shocked.

"He's running, in that direction! He heard us!"

"I see!"

The Third Hokage's old eyes suddenly widened.

If Giyuu were here, he would be amazed that the speed of the third generation's hands to form seals is actually a few minutes faster than Shisui.

He looked in the direction Xingjulang was pointing and slapped his palm on the ground.

"Earth Escape·Earthquake Core!"

He didn't care whether it would damage the Senju clan's mansion. The land more than ten meters wide in front of him was like an elevator being ejected from the well mouth, growing rapidly upward and then flying into the sky!

And the uninvited guest - a white humanoid creature covered in thorns quickly poked out of the huge clod of soil and fell directly into the air!

This guy is none other than Uchiha Obito's reconnaissance-type White Zetsu who are scattered throughout the major ninja villages and used to monitor the shadows of each village.

Since the Heretic Golem was at Nagato's place, the only White Zetsu under his command were the few experimental subjects that Madara created before his death, but he didn't expect that there would be one, and it was discovered like this.

"Damn it! You can actually find me, how is this possible!"

White Zetsu, who can naturally merge with the earth, has no way to hide in mid-air. The Third Hokage directly created a shadow clone and used the Water Prison Technique to trap it.

"What on earth is this..."

Looking at this monster that looked both human and inhuman, Sandai felt a chill in his heart. The surprise that he had just taught Anjuro to learn Kagura's inner eye immediately turned into a feeling of fear.

If Xingjulang hadn't discovered this guy before, how long would he have been lurking around him?

Also, who sent this thing to him?

"Xingjuro, that's it for today. If you find anything unclear on the scroll, come to me at any time."

The third generation simply said a few words, "I will send someone to deal with the damaged yard and flower beds. The person coming is a relative of Tsunade, you can feel free to let him in."

"I see!"

Anjuro didn't wonder what the monster was, and watched the third generation leave. He just looked back at the tormented courtyard and shook his head in embarrassment.

Two hours later.

When Sandai heard from the medical class that this monster actually had wood texture inside its body, his whole face was as hard as an iron mask.

Question: Has anyone ever conducted experiments related to wood escape?

"Gather all ANBU and seal off the roots. Call Tenzo here, I have something to ask him!"

"yes!"

－－－－－－Digression－－－－－

Because the number of words is a little too long, it’s a little late. I may ask for leave tomorrow. I’ll talk about the specific situation tomorrow... I’m not sure yet.
