Chapter 29 - Chapter 29 An Invitation from the Young 'Ino-Shika-Cho'

Ōnoki: "The funniest joke I've ever heard is — 'To protect Naruto, his identity as the hero's son must be concealed.'"

Mei Terumī: "Not just that, Kushina-senpai also said that before she died, she entrusted the Third Hokage to look after Naruto."

Kurotsuchi: "As a result, That old man 'accidentally' leaked Naruto's identity not long after."

Even Kurotsuchi couldn't stand it anymore.

Kurotsuchi: "If you ask me, That old man should just die along with the old man."

Ōnoki: ...What a family misfortune! This unfilial granddaughter, sigh, there's nothing I can do.

Kurenai Yuhi: "Honestly, Black-Framed Naruto really looks like Minato-sensei!"

Kurenai Yuhi: "If you remove the whiskers, he might look exactly like Minato-sensei when he was little!"

Kurenai Yuhi and Kakashi were from the same graduating class.

It was also normal for her to know Minato Namikaze due to Shinku Yuhi's position.

Anko Mitarashi, standing beside Kurenai Yuhi, raised an eyebrow.

Minato Namikaze?

As Orochimaru's disciple, Anko Mitarashi naturally followed Orochimaru and had met many important figures.

"He's certainly handsome, Yuhi, didn't you used to say you envied Rin?"

Kurenai Yuhi quickly picked up a dango to block her best friend's mouth.

In the Pure Land World, Kushina said angrily, "He doesn't look like him at all!"

"Hmph!"

"When I'm resurrected, I'll dye Naruto's hair red, otherwise, if he looks like that Fourth Hokage, I'll surely die of anger!"

Uchiha Mikoto was startled and quickly comforted Kushina.

"Kushina, I think Minato also seems to have regrets."

"Hm?!" Kushina glared at her.

Her eyes had turned crimson.

Uchiha Mikoto's eyelid twitched.

Sister, you are a Jinchuriki, that's true, but you're already dead!

The Nine-Tailed has also been sealed inside your son's body.

How do you still have Nine-Tailed Chakra in your body?

Could it be that you are still the Nine-Tailed's main body?

The black-framed large screen continued.

[After Hiruzen Sarutobi left, little Naruto closed the door.]

[The feeling of being watched disappeared again.]

[The smile on little Naruto's face vanished instantly.]

[He just felt a wave of discomfort, a bit nauseous.]

[Although he didn't feel the same malice from Hiruzen Sarutobi as from others, little Naruto was still very resistant.]

["That old guy just now seemed very concerned about my hair, 'Fox Demon', do you know why?"]

[Every time the feeling of being watched disappeared, little Naruto would habitually ask a question.]

[He didn't know that the Great Fox, lying in the sealing space, did indeed hear him.]

[But currently, because little Naruto hadn't yet learned the Chakra Refining Technique and had no Chakra to use, he couldn't connect with that Great Fox's Chakra, so he never received a response.]

ps: The setting of Chakra is quite vague, many versions, often changed; everyone has Chakra; Chakra cannot be stored, you must refine Chakra when you need to use it, including during battle... [As usual, receiving no response, little Naruto shook his head and murmured, "I'll just pretend for a few days when I go out."]

[Thinking this, little Naruto tidied up his room and took the trash out with him.]

[He didn't go to crowded places.]

[Little Naruto was afraid that if he heard the insults and curses directed at him, he wouldn't be able to resist attacking them.]

[Clang —]

[After walking for a while, little Naruto suddenly found a dented soda can at his feet.]

[Children's laughter echoed in his ears.]

[He expressionlessly intended to walk around it.]

[Because he had been deep in thought, he hadn't paid attention to his surroundings.]

[Unbeknownst to him, he had arrived at the park where children his age liked to play.]

["Hey!"]

[Little Naruto ignored it, or rather, didn't even listen.]

[It must be more insults from those brats.]

[If it were yesterday, little Naruto wouldn't mind ruining the games of those brats who ruined his mood.]

[But today, he had just made a promise to the head of that bastard, so he still needed to exercise some restraint.]

[Most importantly, little Naruto believed that he must learn to read.]

[Without useful information from the outside world, no matter how much he thought, it would be impossible to deduce the history that had occurred, and his thinking would also be very limited.]

["Hey!"]

["Please kick that can over here~!"]

[There was no sense of malice.]

[It sounded like a normal conversation between playmates.]

[Being treated with a normal attitude was quite rare for little Naruto.]

[Out of curiosity, little Naruto looked back.]

[He saw a combination of a chubby boy and a spiky-haired boy who had called out to him.]

"Chubby boy?"

"Damn it!!!"

Choji, who was eating potato chips, immediately rolled his eyes and entered a berserk state.

But in an instant, because the comparison viewing prohibited all aggressive actions.

Choji returned to normal.

He scratched his head, a little confused.

Then, he continued eating potato chips and watching little Naruto on the black-framed large screen.

This startled Shikamaru.

Fortunately, it didn't last long.

Otherwise, Shikamaru wouldn't have known what to do.

Ino Yamanaka: "Pfft ~ Isn't that Shikamaru and Choji?"

Ino Yamanaka: "I didn't expect them to meet so quickly."

Sakura Haruno: "And, Black-Framed Naruto seems to be interested in them too."

"Um... I think I saw you guys... playing house in the corner of the screen."

"You're awake?" Ino looked back.

She saw that Hinata had already woken up.

She was also looking at Ino and Sakura with some envy.

Ino immediately saw through Hinata's little thoughts.

Those approving eyes immediately turned into crescent moons.

"Hinata, you're not envious that we get to meet Black-Framed Naruto, are you?"

"N-no... no..."

Hinata stammered, unable to form a complete sentence.

Little Hanabi tilted her head, unfamiliar with her sister in this state.

But it felt fun, very nice, and she wanted to protect it ~

[Clang —]

[Little Naruto nodded.]

[There were quite a few children who harbored no ill will towards him.]

[But most of them would be warned by the children around them.]

[Of course, little Naruto wasn't enthusiastic about making friends, and even found it troublesome.]

[Children like these two strange ones were indeed rare.]

[So, little Naruto also kicked the soda can at his feet over.]

["Thanks~!" Choji said with a smile, waving his hand.]

[Little Naruto glanced at the two of them, then waved his hand without looking back.]

[Watching little Naruto's departing back.]

["Is that him?"]

[Shikamaru was stunned for a moment.]

["Shikamaru, that kid... he always seems to be alone, can we ask him to come play with us?"]

[Choji looked at little Naruto's somewhat lonely back and asked with a hint of reluctance.]

["Of course." Shikamaru thought for a moment and nodded in reply.]

["Dad said not to care about what other people think or say. If you meet a kid you like and want to interact with, then interact with them."]

["Eh? Did Shikaku-ojisan say that too?"]

[At this moment, a somewhat playful voice rang out.]

"Ahem, Hinata, that's me from another world, not our world."

"So, Naruto's gentleness still belongs only to you."

Ino heard a somewhat familiar voice and saw that incredibly familiar petite figure.

She immediately recognized herself.

However, she was very sure that she had no memory of this when she was little.

She was also worried that Hinata would get jealous because of this.

That's why she immediately explained.

However, she had no idea how devastating her words were to Hinata.

"No... no... I don't..."

Uh —

This time, Hinata not only had smoke coming from her head, but her mouth was slightly open, "Gentleness... only belongs to..."

"Uh ~"

Mist came out of her mouth.

"Ah?!" Ino was dumbfounded.

Hanabi blinked, then tentatively said:

"Sister, Black-Framed Naruto said that besides you, he doesn't want to play with any other girls."

Gasp —

Hinata's eyes rolled back, and her soft body stiffened.

Ino: "..."

"What a cute child." Yamanaka Rino shook her head and smiled.

She had also been that age, so she naturally knew how strong that feeling could be.

Of course, it was also her first time seeing someone faint from shyness.

No!

Yamanaka Rino's pupils constricted, and she quickly stepped forward, hugged Hinata, and pinched Hinata's philtrum.

["It's Ino, do you know that kid too?" Shikamaru glanced at the cute short-haired girl.]

["Yeah, people in the village have been talking about him recently." Ino nodded.]

[Then she looked at little Naruto's back and took a deep breath.]

["Hey~!"]

["Do you want to come play with us~!"]
