The blackening of the heavens begins with Hokage

quiet!

The huge venue became silent!

Everyone was extremely shocked by the shocking news brought by Sarutobi Hiruzen!

Full of disbelief!

An impossible look is fully displayed on the facial features.

At the same time, I kept comforting myself.

No!

This is impossible!

How could Uzumaki Naruto be the son of the Fourth Hokage?!

If Uzumaki Naruto is the son of Namikaze Minato, then why didn't the Third Hokage tell us the truth?

Why are we allowed to treat our benefactor’s child like this and bully him in every possible way?

In an instant.

The little Uzumaki Naruto became the only focus of the audience.

Everyone's eyes were focused on this child who was only three years old.

No action was taken.

The scene remained silent.

For a moment, everyone really didn't know how to accept this cruel fact.

Even though they know that this is unlikely, they are more willing to believe that Sarutobi Hiruzen is joking with them and lying to them, because only in this way will their hearts feel better.

There is no need to feel guilty for what you have done in the past.

Because they were truly grateful to the Fourth Hokage from the bottom of their hearts, they were even more unable to accept everything they had done to this benefactor's child over the years.

In order to further prove his statement, Sarutobi Hiruzen continued: "Back then, in order to conceal Naruto's identity, we decided to change his surname to Uzumaki, which followed the surname of Minato's wife Uzumaki Kushina.

I thought that as long as this was done, Naruto could grow up happily like an ordinary person.

But I didn't expect that everyone's misunderstanding of Naruto was so deep.

I'm the one who's ashamed of Minato.

I'm sorry to everyone.

You don't have to blame yourselves.

Everything is my fault.

It's because I focused on official duties during this period and ignored Naruto and everyone's opinion of Naruto."

After everyone present heard what Sarutobi Hiruzen said, their hearts felt like a bolt from the blue, and they were so shocked that they could not speak.

It’s over…

Uzumaki Naruto's surname is Uzumaki.

Namikaze Minato's wife also had the surname Uzumaki.

How can they deceive themselves again?

The last hope in my heart collapsed instantly.

Suddenly, almost everyone showed various complicated expressions.

They are ashamed of the Fourth Hokage.

Ashamed of Uzumaki Naruto.

They were even embarrassed to look up at the stone statue of Namikaze Minato, even one more time.

Recalling their attitude towards Uzumaki Naruto over the years...

This is simply worse than a pig or a dog!

Looking at Uzumaki Naruto in the center of the square, everyone was silent.

Don't know what to say.

I don't know how to face Uzumaki Naruto.

They have always regarded Uzumaki Naruto as a monster, and even instilled this concept and hatred into the next generation, but now suddenly, they told themselves and others that they regarded this child as an enemy and a monster.

, turned out to be the benefactor’s child?

How could they accept this fact in just a moment?

How does this make them face what they and others have done in the past?

However, facing everyone's gaze, Uzumaki Naruto felt uncomfortable at the moment.

Because the 'beautiful picture' he imagined did not appear.

I thought that as long as the old man disclosed his identity, everyone would recognize him, stop hating him, and come over to make friends with him.

But what is the situation now?

How could it become like this?

That look of 'disgust' is gone, but what is going on now?

He looked around the venue.

He saw someone's expression was very complicated and he didn't know what he was thinking.

I also saw someone with a very indifferent expression, as if he was not surprised by his identity.

Just like that, in the entire meeting, the villagers were quiet, the ninjas were quiet, the major wealthy families were quiet, and the senior officials were quiet. After everyone was quiet for a while, the meeting finally ended with the helpless sigh of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

, it was officially declared over and disbanded.

The turmoil just now is gone.

The enthusiasm just now is gone.

Everyone left the venue one after another with heavy hearts.

On the way back, everyone was in no mood to communicate too much with other people.

Naruto Uzumaki stood in the center of the square, staring blankly at the villagers one after another, and then left one after another.

Until the whole square becomes wider.

Uzumaki Naruto still watched the whole process with a dull expression.

The eyes are dull.

My mind went blank.

The mouth was so dry that it opened slightly.

"Everyone has left, go back..." Li Yaoxiang's voice sounded in Naruto's mind.

Naruto's body trembled slightly.

My mind was still blank and my expression was dull.

But unconsciously, he followed Li Yaoxiang's instructions and walked back towards home.

During the trip home, there was no communication between the two parties.

Naruto couldn't feel the coldness of the ice and snow.

Can't feel the surrounding scenes.

Just like this, I walked back step by step.

It wasn't until he arrived at home and the door was closed that he put aside his confusion and asked Li Yaoxiang: "Why... why are you like this? I am the child of a hero. Since they are so grateful to their father, shouldn't everyone stop?

Do you hate me? Shouldn’t everyone accept me?”

"Naruto……"

"I already told you."

"The people in the village are more cruel and ungrateful than you think."

"Didn't you see it just now?"

"Many people didn't show surprise at all after learning your true identity."

"That's because they already knew the truth!"

"But so what if we know the truth?"

"They won't thank you at all for your father's sacrifice and for sealing the demon fox with your body!"

"They will only think that this is what you and your son should do! Your father's death is deserved! Your mother's death is also deserved!"

"The only thing they have in their hearts is themselves!"

Naruto's fragile mind at this moment seemed to be bombarded to pieces by Li Yaoxiang's series of words.

He always imagined things so beautifully, and was unwilling to believe Li Yaoxiang's words, let alone believe that the village Li Yaoxiang said was really that dark. But the problem was that he could not give a reasonable explanation as to why those

People who know his identity will treat him like this.

This made him feel very uncomfortable.

The beautiful world he longed for in his mind was almost beaten to pieces by reality.

However, just when he felt most at a loss, there was an unprecedented knock on the door.

knock!

knock!

knock!

This sudden knock on the door instantly brought Naruto's thoughts back to reality.

After all, no one would come to visit his home on a good day.

Even if someone comes, it can only be that old man, Grandpa Hokage.

But the problem is, it's not the end of the month yet, so it's not the time to give him monthly money. Logically speaking, Grandpa Hokage wouldn't come over at this time?

Why did someone come suddenly?

As a result, Naruto, who was still thinking wildly, was suddenly attracted by the 'guest' outside the door.

With doubts, Naruto walked to open the door...
