Scourge of Naruto

Chapter 116 The power of words?

The arrival of the ninth team heralds the end of a mission.

Sarutobi looked at Ye Zi, who had a calm expression. After staying for a moment, he moved to the three people of the ninth team. His eyes stayed on Kai and Kurenai for a long time. The dust all over their bodies could not hide the fatigue from their bodies. They left after performing the mission. It didn't take long, but at this time, the childishness in the two people could no longer be seen.

They have grown up... Then, leaving them to you is not a wrong choice.

Finally, Sarutobi's eyes fell on Ye Zi, a trace of relief flashed deep in his eyes, and he smiled and said: "Thank you for your hard work. The manpower in the village is still very tight, but you can rest for two days. If there are any tasks in the future, we will notify you in time." you."

Ye Zi nodded slightly, led the team members, and turned to leave the Hokage's office.

Sarutobi looked at the closed door, put his hand on his cheek, tilted his head slightly, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Suddenly, he remembered the first time he met Ye Zi, and then extended to later times, and connected it with Jiraiya's comments. This child who was very similar to Orochimaru had now become a ninja in his own right.

Konoha Little White Fang…

This title coming from the enemy ninja has its own weight. In the past few years, Ye Zi's mission efficiency has been astonishing and he has made too many contributions to the village. Unlike the Sannin of Konoha, he has shined in the war and gained great fame. However, he has made great contributions to Konoha. His contribution is no less than that of the Sannin. In a sense, he and Hatake Sakumo are of the same type, both are task-oriented talents.

However, Hatake Sakumo's reputation is positive, so his contributions are known to everyone, while Ye Zi's reputation is negative, so his contributions are drowned by the negative reputation. No matter how many high-level tasks he performs, he Konoha Village has brought in an unknown amount of funds, but these are meaningless when the negative reputation has not been eradicated.

This is extremely unfair...

Sarutobi slowly closed his eyes and frowned slightly. He knew this was unfair, but he couldn't change it. Orochimaru may also know this, so he didn't force him to clear Ye Zi's name.

Recently, several teenagers in Konoha Village have disappeared inexplicably, and one of them is an Uchiha. The impact of this incident is not big or small. The main problem is that no clues can be found. .

As long as no one continues to disappear, and no clues can be found, the investigation cannot continue, and it will be regarded as an open case. But the problem is that there is a person in Konoha Village who is burdened with the stigma of cannibalism. If it hadn't happened to be someone in Uchiha, When the boy disappeared, Ye Zi's ninth team was performing a mission outside. So, even if there was no evidence, people in the village would naturally connect this matter with Ye Zi.

"Stigma...? Huh."

He suddenly laughed at himself. This so-called stigma was based on the condition of saving his companions.

--------------------------------------------------

Kai and Hong were really tired from this long-distance trip. Kai was mentally tired, while Hong was tired both physically and mentally.

Ye Zi and Yan Ye, who had been performing tasks for many years, did not feel any fatigue. Such an intense task was really nothing to them.

After walking out of the Konoha office building, because several people's houses were in the same direction, the group did not separate but continued walking together.

"I really want to take a good nap." The moment Akai, a training madman, walked out of the office building, he just wanted to go home and have a good sleep.

Hong looked at him wistfully and said nothing.

Ye Zi looked straight ahead and said calmly: "Go back and rest as soon as possible."

It's really different...

Yan Ye listened to Ye Zi's words and thought silently, she and the Uchiha siblings had never heard words like this before.

After leaving the Konoha office building, we came to the lively streets.

The speed at which Konoha was reborn was astonishing. After the end of the Second Ninja World War, although there were several small-scale wars, this did not affect the speed of Konoha's cultivation and recuperation. The common people live and work in peace and contentment, and the number of buildings between streets is gradually increasing. Along with regularization, the number of shops is also gradually increasing.

"Look, it's Ye Zi."

"That monster that eats human flesh?"

"Yes, I don't know how many enemy ninjas were eaten by him."

"But after all, he eats the enemy."

"Are you a fool? The key is not whether he is eating enemies, but that he is eating human flesh."

"By the way, haven't there been several teenagers missing recently? Could it be..."

"No way…"

"Who knows."

Familiar glances came one after another as promised.

The whispers hidden in the corners are full of human malice.

Yan Ye, who was often by Ye Zi's side, was familiar with such eyes. She couldn't change anything and could only approach Ye Zi silently.

Akai and Hong couldn't hear the malicious voice, but they could clearly feel the disgusted and unreasonable looks directed at Teacher Ye from all around.

This kind of rumor that has accumulated to a certain extent is constantly fermenting. It will not slowly disappear as time goes by, but will slowly expand over time!

Akai felt angry. Why did he treat Teacher Ye like this? Is it because of the false rumors?

Teacher Ye eats human flesh?

Akai didn't know whether this was true or not, but since they got along with him, he didn't say that he didn't see Ye Zi eating human flesh. In terms of daily interactions, Teacher Ye is just a little cold-tempered, but he is a very nice person. How could he be someone who has been rumored by others? A man-eating monster?

Hong also felt angry, without any reason. What emerged in her heart was the same doubt as Akai.

The three of them were angry because of this, but the person involved acted as if nothing happened, as if the malicious glances from all around did not exist.

Ye Zi didn't care about these looks at all. The direction he was looking at was not on the same level as these people. How could he care about these and waste time?

He was also vaguely aware of the anger coming from the three people behind him, and it was because of him. He couldn't help but curl his lips slightly.

As he walked through this street and came to another street, the malicious looks coming his way increased instead of decreasing. This made Ye Zi realize that the rumors against him seemed to be getting more and more powerful.

"Stupid person." Ye Zi still didn't care about this. In his opinion, this so-called rumor had no power at all.

He didn't care, not because he was very strong in his heart, but because in his opinion, this kind of thing was meaningless and had no weight at all compared to returning to Earth.

The ninth team passed by Ichiraku Ramen, and after a hundred steps forward, they had to separate and go their own directions.

At this time, a tall man led a young man out of Ichiraku Ramen, facing Team 9.

One big and one small, with somewhat similar looks and rare white hair, they were Hatake Sakumo and Hatake Kakashi.

Hatake Sakumo held Hatake Kakashi's hand. He looked up and saw the people of the ninth team, and stopped. Kakashi, who was still Shota, stared at Ye Zi, and couldn't help but use some strength in his little hand. .

Sakumo noticed his son's subconscious exertion and couldn't help but glance at him. Then he looked at Ye Zi's black and white hair, showed a gentle smile, bowed slightly, and said, "This is the first time we meet, I am Katsuki Sakumo." Then he let go of Kakashi's hand, raised his hand and patted Kakashi's head gently, and said with a smile: "This is my son, Kakashi."

Sakumo, whose status was no less than that of the Sannin of Konoha, bowed slightly without any pretense, showing his sincerity.

"Hello."

Faced with the sincerity from Konoha White Fang, Ye Zi responded as a matter of course.

The two have never met, but they know each other's identity.

Ye Zi can be identified by the white hair, while Zuo Yun can be identified by the black and white hair.

There is no conflict between the two titles of Konoha White Fang and Konoha White Fang. It can be said that Konoha White Fang is derived from the title Konoha White Fang. What they have in common is that the owner of the title is as fast as his sword. , just as scary.

Ye Zi knew about Shuomao's existence, and Shuomao also knew about Ye Zi's existence, but neither of them had any intention of getting to know each other. They didn't expect to meet each other by chance today.

Sakumo is very interested in Ye Zi. He usually pays attention to the elites of the younger generation. Compared to the outstanding Namikaze Minato and Uzumaki Kushina, he is more interested in Ye Zi, who is known as Konoha's Little White Fang. .

This is an obvious inheritance. Corresponding to the three ninjas who are the mainstay of Konoha, the three younger generations are the mainstays of the next generation.

He kept smiling, and then looked at the three people behind Ye Zi. The light in his eyes flashed slightly. The child with thick eyebrows had undergone earth-shaking changes from the last time he saw him.

Was his father's death the result of Konoha's little White Fang? The pace of progress is not unsatisfactory. If you continue like this, I will soon catch up with you, Kakashi...

He bowed slightly to Ye Zi and others, and then stepped aside.

"Is this Konoha White Fang? Not as sharp as a sword, but his sword is as amazing as his reputation says."

Ye Zi thought silently, bowed slightly to White Fang, and led the ninth team away.

From beginning to end, Akai's eyes always fell on Kakashi, but Kakashi's eyes always fell on Ye Zi.

"Father, little Konoha...what kind of person is White Fang?" Kakashi asked, looking at Ye Zi's retreating back.

Shuomao also looked at Ye Zi's back, thinking about the increasingly loud voices in the village, and then thinking about Ye Zi who was not affected at all, and said: "That is a powerful person."

"Oh." Kakashi stared blankly at the disappearing figure. He had been very dissatisfied ever since Ye Zi was given the title of Konoha's Little White Fang. He felt that this was using his father's fame to build momentum, but even if It was his father who also recognized the power of Konoha's little White Fang.

"Kakashi." Sakumo suddenly patted Kakashi's head again and said, "Don't always look far away. Occasionally, you should also pay attention to the eyes from behind. Remember what I told you last time. Have you ever been a strong rival? Now he is already stronger than you."

"Hey." Kakashi curled his lips with a look of disdain. Is it just the crane tail?

Seeing the disdain on Kakashi's face, Sakumo smiled helplessly.
