I'm Naruto, Starting With Ashura.

Uzumaki Kushina, this is a name that all ninjas in Konoha are familiar with.

Maybe there are still people who don't know who this name is, but if she is called Mrs. Fourth Hokage, it is easy to know who she is.

There are not many people in Konoha named Uzumaki, but surprisingly, Naruto is named Uzumaki.

And Uzumaki Naruto is thirteen years old this year, and Mrs. Fourth Hokage died thirteen years ago.

The answer is obvious enough when it all comes together.

Nara Shikamaru also got the answer in an instant, so he was dumbfounded by the answer.

"The son of the Fourth Hokage....."

Nara Shikamaru took a deep breath in his heart, but this time he could not easily suppress the shock in his heart.

He could think of Uchiha Sasuke's reasons, but he really didn't think of Uzumaki Naruto's reasons.

The son of the Fourth Hokage was actually promoted by the village as the Nine Tails Demon Fox.

Even if he doesn't often pay attention to Uzumaki Naruto's reputation outside, he can often hear some villagers pointing at Uzumaki Naruto and saying unpleasant things behind his back. He has even heard even worse things.

You can imagine how Uzumaki Naruto spent that time in the past.

It is because of understanding that Nara Shikamaru can understand and see the hatred hidden in Uzumaki Naruto's heart more intuitively.

That hatred is definitely no less than the hatred in Uchiha Sasuke's heart.

It is not surprising that Nara Shikamaru can come to this conclusion and Uzumaki Naruto.

"Well, it turns out that your mind is still relatively efficient."

"Thirteen years ago, my parents sealed Nine Tails at the cost of their lives. There is no doubt that my parents are heroes.

"However, as heroes, they will not have any good results."

"And the Third Hokage... Sarutobi Hiruzen released my identity as Nine Tails Jinchūriki, but hid my identity as the son of the Fourth Generation. Why do you think this is?"

Nara Shikamaru's heart skipped a beat. He already had an answer in his mind when he heard this question.

"...vent your anger."

"Third Hokage hopes to turn you into the direction of Konoha's anger."

"What happened that night caused too much damage. These injuries cannot be shouldered by the dead Fourth Hokage. The Third Hokage also refuses to take such a blame, so I can only transfer the anger that has nowhere to vent to you."

That's the obvious thing.

Nara Shikamaru didn't know how much damage the Nine Tails Rebellion caused to Konoha, but he knew that after causing such losses, those in power need to take responsibility.

The Fourth Hokage and Mrs. Fourth Hokage were definitely not the main cause of the accident. After all, these two people died for Konoha. [At that time, if someone put the responsibility on them, it was really mold growing in their brains.

The Third Hokage was unwilling to take responsibility and let his good reputation be ruined, so the responsibility for that accident naturally fell on the completely innocent Uzumaki Naruto.

"The Third Hokage...is truly a famous Hokage-sama."

At this moment, Nara Shikamaru had a new understanding of this "strongest Hokage".

What happened to Uzumaki Naruto was definitely the Third Hokage's tacit approval, or even his instruction.

So, isn't the Third Hokage involved in the Uchiha clan's affairs?

Nara Shikamaru now does not believe at all that what happened inside Konoha did not involve the Third Hokage.

"correct answer."

"The Third Hokage has done a lot of unknown things, just like what he said, "all for Konoha." So, what do you think of Konoha now compared to other four ninja villages?"

"The Third Hokage is old and exhausted, and its strength is no longer as good as it was at its peak."

"Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Senju Tsunade, are all top ninjas who left Konoha.

"With the death of my father and the destruction of the Uchiha clan, Konoha no longer has any visible deterrent effect."

Uzumaki Naruto didn't exaggerate the facts, but was talking about the facts.

The current Konoha is basically on the same level as Sunagakure and Kirigakure, and has long since fallen away from the strongest position.

"[Be obedient to the outside world, and strike hard internally." This is my evaluation of the Third Hokage. Remember this sentence carefully, and don't say it casually. Once the Third Hokage knows that someone has ruined his reputation, the next one will be... Perhaps it was the Nara clan that was exterminated. "

Nara Shikamaru's breathing stagnated, the fear in his heart continued, and the cold sweat on his back continued.

These are things he shouldn't know, but now he already knows them.

Although Nara Shikamaru was certain that the Nara clan were all fighting for Konoha and were loyal to the Third Hokage, but at this moment he couldn't help but feel frightened.

It's not because of Uzumaki Naruto's guidance, but the bloody fact.

Nara Shikamaru has his own judgment about things. He knows that some things can be believed, especially such bloody facts, which he cannot disbelieve.

Uzumaki Naruto could clearly feel how large the Chakra fluctuations of Nara Shikamaru were, and the impatience and irritability in his heart were clearly reflected from the Chakra fluctuations.

"Then, as to why Sarutobi Asuma will be in charge of your new generation Ino–Shika–Chō."

"Because you Ino-Shika-Chō are very important in Sarutobi Hiruzen's heart. It is not enough to put you in the hands of any instructor Jōnin. Only putting you in the hands of his son is the best." OK

"Only in this way can your voice be turned into a voice to support Sarutobi Asuma during the next change of power."

This topic did not continue, but ended abruptly.

Nara Shikamaru's whole body trembled, and his mind told him that all this was true.

Compared with unrealistic random allocation, this statement is more reasonable.

"You don't need to feel particularly complicated."

"Although Sarutobi Hiruzen made this arrangement to help his son gain power during the transition of power, Sarutobi Asuma should not have any extra thoughts about you. At least he is absolutely serious about teaching you."

"At least Sarutobi Hiruzen will not use those unscrupulous methods to deal with you Ino-Shika-Chō. After all, your loyalty is what he needs, so Sarutobi Asuma will teach you very seriously and become the most important teacher in your heart."

"It's just that you'd better not take it too seriously. It's enough just like the past."

"As long as nothing happens, Konoha is still the most ideal harbor for you Ino-Shika-Chō, but it is best not to get involved in Konoha's political Uzumaki, otherwise, you Nara clan will not escape death."

"Although it will not completely destroy the Nara clan, the leader of the Nara clan should be replaced by someone else.
