Naruto: Favorability System

Chapter 17: Naruto is in Danger?



After feeling sorry for the Nine Tails Jinchuriki, several Kumo ninjas continued their mission.

Not long after, Kumo-Nin who was hiding in the shadows showed vigilance, and a masked figure walked towards them not far away.

The masked man was no different from ordinary Konoha villagers in terms of attire.

But at this time and place, how could an ordinary person appear in a remote alley.

It seems that they have successfully attracted Konoha Anbu's attention.

The captain's mouth raised a smile, he had already thought of an excuse to appear here.

Soon, the masked man came to him.

The captain took a step forward and said with a straight face, "You are Konoha's ninja, right? Our Jōnin has disappeared, did you do it?"

The contact with the high-level people these days made them understand that the ninjas at the bottom of Konoha are tough, but the high-level people are generally weak.

He just needs to intimidate, and these people will choose to retreat because they are afraid of sabotaging the peace talks.

The masked man didn't answer. After looking at the Kumo ninja in front of him, he said lightly, "Very well, it seems that everyone has arrived. Let's get ready to take action. We must take down the Jinchuriki today!"

Hearing this, the captain's face changed slightly, but the other party had disappeared in place.

It's just that it's not clear whether he used the body flicker technique or the clone technique.

The Kumo- Nin next to him was a little puzzled, and asked the captain, "Captain, has the plan changed temporarily? Do we attack the Jinchuriki?"

"What the hell? Those are spies lurking in from other villages! We've been tricked."

The captain gritted his teeth, but it was too late to stop the masked man.

Konoha Anbu, who was watching from above, had already noticed the movement on their side, and was jumping on the roof, rushing towards this place.

Listening to the piercing sound in their ears, several Kumo ninjas communicated in low voices,

"Captain, what shall we do now?"

"Think of a way to explain to them clearly that there are people from other villages who want to deal with Nine-Tails Jinchuriki..."

While speaking, Moonlight Hayate and Uzuki Yugao had already appeared in front of several Kumo ninjas, and said with a serious expression, "We have been watching you for a long time, tell me the reason why you are here."

"Konoha Anbu, would you believe me if we said we walked here for a stroll?"

In the middle of the sentence, even the Team Captain himself found this reason unconvincing, but right now he can only bite the bullet and explain, after all, this is the truth.

Moonlight Hayate sneered, "Do you think we will believe it? Obediently come with us."

...

At the same time

Naruto yawned boredly, and headed to the bathroom to wash up.

Since he can't see the excitement, it's better to wash up and go to bed early.

His current strength doesn't allow him to get involved in such a big event, and acting rashly will only arouse suspicion from others.

At this moment, Naruto suddenly had a whim, and looked at the window.

His malicious perception ability was activated, and he sensed that someone with great malice was rushing towards his position.

Nine Tails in the sealed space also opened his eyes and reminded, "Hey, Naruto kid, someone with malicious intentions is approaching you. Judging from the amount of chakra, it should be a ninja."

Of course Naruto knew it was a ninja, but the problem was that he didn't know the identity and specific strength of the other party.

And, isn't he a Jinchuriki? Where are those Konoha Anbu who watched him now?

Guessing what Naruto was thinking, Nine Tails reminded, "Those followers sent by Hokage are all entangled by another group of people. They shouldn't be able to make it through in a short time. You can only face this enemy by yourself."

Hearing this, Naruto's face became serious.

He never thought of running away from the battle, and he didn't expect that his first encounter with the enemy would be so early.

Is this the so-called butterfly effect?

After calmly thinking for a while, Naruto looked for sharp weapons in the room.

He is more or less a ninja now. In the situation where the enemy is in the open and he is hidden, he might be able to strike first and kill him.

At this time, Nine Tails also said in a low tone, "If your life is really in danger, you can hand over your body to me, and let me control it. If you are controlled by my Chakra, there is a possibility of waking up. But if you die, you will really die."

Naruto didn't refute Nine Tails, it was a tacit agreement.

...

Below the residential building

The masked man climbed over the courtyard wall, glanced at Naruto's room, and then slowly took off the headgear that concealed his identity, revealing an ordinary face.

This person is none other than the decadent middle-aged ninja who had a relationship with Naruto at Ichiraku Ramen.

However, compared to that time, the eyes of the middle-aged ninja at this moment are full of firmness, and the decadent temperament no longer exists, replaced by viciousness.

Stepping on the wall to go upstairs, he entered Naruto's room very easily without Anbu's obstruction.

It was the first time he had come to the demon fox's room, and it looked similar to the room of an ordinary child.

However, judging from the lights in the bathroom and the sound of running water, the demon fox is taking a bath, so he probably won't come out for a short time.

After thinking about it, the middle-aged ninja continued to look at Naruto's room.

After seeing the photo of a single person placed by Naruto on the bed, the middle-aged ninja picked up the photo and seemed to be caught in some kind of memory, with a faint smile on his face.

But soon, the middle-aged ninja's expression became ferocious, and he directly crushed the photo.

His name is Amakaze, and he is an ordinary Konoha ninja. He had neither a famous teacher nor a family as a backer since he was a child.

If there is no miracle, he will only wander between the lower ranks of a ninja in this life.

But the appearance of Naruto's father, the Fourth Hokage, gave him hope for struggle.

The Fourth Hokage was born as an orphan, and his status was even humbler than him, but he was able to rely on talent and hard work to become a Jonin, and eventually become the fourth Hokage.

With such a role model, he also began to firmly believe that hard work will pay off.

The later situation was just as he expected. After joining the fourth Hokage, he was quickly promoted to the captain of the Chunin squad, and even had the opportunity to become a special Jonin.

However, everything changed on the night of the Nine Tails.

With the death of the fourth Hokage, the fourth Hokage's units have been suppressed one after another.

Some were sent to the front line to perform dangerous tasks, and some were not given a chance to perform at all.

It was in the frequent missions that he gradually accumulated hidden injuries, and he could no longer become a special Jonin.

And the reason for all this is because the Fourth Hokage died in battle for no reason.

'Namikaze Minato, as Hokage, you can fight to the death for the village, but what about those of us who have followed you and worked hard for you to become Hokage?'

They are not reconciled, but the reality makes them unable to resist at all, so they can only silently accept the arrangements of the older generation.

They will only feel better when they see Naruto being bullied as a fox and being discriminated against by the villagers.

They ridicule in their hearts. This is the price of the Hokage's willfulness.

Waking up from the memory, Amakaze came to the bathroom door and slowly pushed open the glass door.

Looking at the hazy figure in the mist, Tianfeng stabbed in without hesitation, muttering to himself, "Uzumaki Naruto, it would be great if you hadn't been born, you shouldn't have appeared in this world, you damn demon fox."

Soon, Amakaze realized that something was wrong. The kunai in his hand seemed to be not piercing into the flesh, but into the air.

But the next moment, Amakaze felt a stabbing pain. A fruit knife was stuck in the back of his foot, and blood was slowly flowing out.

At the same time, a voice sounded immediately, "It's you who shouldn't appear in this world!"
