Naruto, you are a born devil!

The grace it displayed was enough to eclipse any woman.

"......"

People stared at the scene blankly.

It was not until the shrine maiden passed by that they woke up from their dream.

Muffled discussions rang out in the crowd, and they were all excited, discussing things about the shrine maiden.

Wangliang.

A thousand-year-old demon linked to the shrine maiden.

Old Konoha residents have experienced more than one incident of Wangliang.

As early as about 20 years ago, Wangliang had once caused trouble in the ninja world.

Going back about 20 years, Wangliang also appeared in the world...

Many villagers are witnesses of history, and they know the epic stories of each shrine maiden who sacrificed her life to seal the Wangliang.

Seeing this shrine maiden with their own eyes, they couldn't help but shed tears, and their hearts were full of emotion.

Naruto, who was also standing in the crowd, naturally would not miss such an interesting thing.

"So... that's how it is..."

Naruto, who is familiar with the plot of Naruto, had some thoughts when Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi, Itachi and others left the village a few days ago.

Now that he saw the shrine maiden come to Konoha in person, Naruto knew that he might have triggered a series of butterfly effects.

Let more plots of this world go in an unknown direction.

The shrine maiden who should have been sacrificed appeared in Konoha.

Does this mean that the monster has not been sealed yet?

The shrine maiden with long fluttering chestnut hair is accompanied by a little girl with light yellow hair.

The eyebrows and eyes of this little girl are somewhat similar to those of the shrine maiden.

Obviously, she is the next shrine maiden... Shion.

"Miya-sama... is so beautiful~."

Naruto stared at the woman in front of him.

The noble temperament is not comparable to any woman he has ever seen.

The companion tailed beast in the body began to wake up.

Naruto comforted it and signaled not to worry, because sooner or later...

Soon, the shrine maiden met the Hokage.

The smiling Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen exchanged pleasantries with the miko.

After a brief greeting, Sarutobi Hiruzen expressed his hope that the miko could settle down in Konoha, preferably to live there permanently.

The demons have been a long-standing and troublesome problem for the ninja world.

Konoha has also suffered from them several times.

If we can gather the power of Konoha and work with the miko to permanently eliminate or seal the demons, that would be the best thing.

The miko nodded slightly and accepted the invitation of the Hokage.

Since we have come all the way to Konoha, we naturally have this consideration.

Among all the ninja villages, Konoha has the best reputation.

Choosing this place as a place to live and relying on the power of Konoha is naturally no problem.

In public, the miko made a request.

She hoped that Konoha could open up a place and build a temple for the miko to perform rituals and practice.

Sarutobi Hiruzen immediately said happily that it was absolutely no problem.

There is actually an ancient temple in the back mountain of Konoha.

The Uzumaki clan... shrine.

After the Uzumaki clan was exterminated, the place became empty.

After the death of the first Hokage's wife Uzumaki Mito, the place became even more dilapidated.

Now, if it is renovated and decorated as a shrine for the shrine goddess, it will be no problem.

The site is confirmed, and the guests and hosts are happy.

The shrine maiden and the Hokage congratulate each other, and the specific details can be discussed slowly.

In short, we will first hire craftsmen from the Land of Waves and have professionals to repair it...

Just as Sarutobi Hiruzen invited the shrine maiden to enter the Hokage building, a voice in the crowd stopped them.

"Hokage-sama, shrine maiden, please stay!"

The one who appeared on the scene was Uchiha Fugaku.

As a well-known clan in Konoha, who doesn't know the well-known Uchiha Fugaku?

His sudden voice made people whisper.

"......"

Naruto looked at Uchiha Fugaku, who was full of vigor and vitality.

He looked completely different from the original work, where he was suppressed.

The Kumogakure War changed some things, making Uchiha's reputation soar.

Has Uchiha, who became famous again in one battle, started to swell?

Naruto has enough reason to believe that the young Uchiha Shisui can persuade the two-tailed Jinchuriki, Yukito, to retreat.

Then... Uchiha Fugaku, who has been famous for a long time, must be more able to persuade the Raikage to retreat.

His attack also means that he is confident enough to do something.

"Hokage-sama... Your Highness the Miko should be given enough protection when she settles in our Konoha. I heard... the ninjas in the Land of Demons are very strange..."

As Uchiha Fugaku described, everyone knew what he meant.

Konoha lost some people and many people were injured in this mission to escort the Miko.

They left with high spirits and returned with a defeated army.

"I think the ninjas from the Demon Country will definitely not give up and will definitely come to attack the shrine maiden!"

Uchiha Fugaku's words made a lot of sense, and Sarutobi Hiruzen had to nod his head in agreement.

"So... for the safety of the ninja world and Konoha, the Uchiha clan has an obligation to do so!"

Uchiha Fugaku immediately hoped that the Sandaime would hand over the responsibility of protecting the shrine maiden to the Uchiha clan in the name of justice.

With the record of the conflict with Kumogaku, Uchiha Fugaku's request at this time is extremely reasonable!

However, his attitude can also be understood as...more or less aggressive.

He was obviously testing the Konoha high-level, and even had a sense of pushing the issue.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was unaware of the Uchiha's ambition, just thought that the Uchiha clan wanted to show off.

So, Sarutobi Hiruzen praised Itachi in front of Uchiha Fugaku.

And said that Itachi could think with the mind of a Hokage at the age of 7.

This statement, to Uchiha Fugaku, was no less than a compromise or instruction.

"What the Sandaime meant was...with Itachi's talent, he can become a Hokage sooner or later."

This reminder completely "woke up" Uchiha Fugaku.

The idea of ​​"physical revolution" in Uchiha Fugaku's mind was thrown into the sea and never seen again.

"Peaceful evolution of Konoha" became his first thought.

"Yes, with Itachi's talent, it's not a matter of time before he becomes a Hokage?"

Uchiha Fugaku decided immediately.

The clan should take a more stable approach, seize power step by step, and... erode Konoha step by step.

Itachi joined the Anbu and became Hokage sooner or later.

Saeko was betrothed to Naruto, and sooner or later he would win over the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

The clan strives for more power, and sooner or later the top leaders will be replaced by Uchiha.

With three approaches, in the end... the whole Konoha belongs to Uchiha.

Chapter 26. Xiyan: Hayate, this is just Naruto's order

So that's it...

Naruto stroked his chin and thought for a while, and soon figured out the purpose of Uchiha Fugaku's public attack.

"Saeko's father wants to infiltrate Konoha step by step, force Konoha's top leaders, and thus control this village..."

If the Uchiha, who has been in the limelight because of the Kumogaku border war, can protect the miko and assist in the elimination of the demon, it is equivalent to gaining the title of "saving the ninja world".

By then, the power of the Uchiha will be even more unstoppable.

Once the demon dies, the ninja world will be at peace. If the Uchiha asked for something in a logical way, the Konoha high-ranking officials would definitely not be able to refuse.

In terms of playing dirty, the Uchiha could not beat the Konoha high-ranking officials. But in terms of being aboveboard and facing head-on, the Uchiha clan has never been inferior to anyone.

This is a naked conspiracy.

"Thank you very much."

The high-spirited Uchiha Fugaku thanked the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Then, the Uchiha ninjas gathered together, relying on their professional qualities to clear the way for the miko, and gradually replaced the escort duties of other Konoha ninjas.

It was well-organized, and it was clear that they were well-trained.

It was like the official army taking over a certain area from the city management.

How to say it, it is worthy of being an elite clan.

So, can Uchiha Fugaku's plan avoid the risk of the Uchiha clan being exterminated?

Danzo should have asked Itachi to join the Anbu.

Uchiha disrupting his original plan will only make Danzo more extreme and carry out darker plans.

It can also be said that the Uchiha clan is still actively seeking death.

"Then, let's wait and see what happens next."

Naruto thought.

However... since the plot has begun to deviate and may not be completely in accordance with the original work, then he must have spies on his side.

In terms of insight, no clan is stronger than the "Hyuga".

Another use of Hyuga Xia has been arranged...

Naruto stared at the back of the shrine maiden leaving, reflecting this noble figure in his eyes, and then turned and left.

......

Konoha Hospital.

The daytime sun shone in, and Yueguang Jifeng tidied up his appearance and walked out of the ward.

Today is his discharge day.

After recuperating for more than a week, his body was idle.

On this sunny morning, he couldn't help but sigh as he breathed in the air of the outside world.

Not only sighing at the beauty of the outside world, but also thinking... Xi Yan should not come to greet him.
