Naruto: Favorability System

Konoha Hospital, inside the ward

Waking up from a coma, Naruto found himself lying on the hospital bed, and he was relieved immediately.

Before deciding to go berserk, he was even ready to wake up and face Shimura Danzo, but it turns out he was overthinking.

With the Third Hokage alive, Danzo couldn't get involved in the growth of Jinchuriki and could only shrink back in the shadows.

However, it should also be related to his performance. Although he ran out of control, he didn't hurt the villagers.

In the eyes of the Third Hokage, this is obviously a good behavior. After all, it is not easy to find a new Jinchuriki.

Finding a comfortable position to get up and sit down, Naruto stretched out his injured arm.

Thanks to the Uzumaki physique, the wound on it has healed itself, leaving only a shallow scar, which is not ugly.

This incident can also be regarded as a reminder to himself that even in Konoha, he is not safe.

No one knows if a lunatic like Amakaze will appear again.

Naruto, who was idle and bored, put his hands on the quilt, and while looking at the scenery outside the window, he tried to communicate with Nine Tails.

But Nine Tails didn't want to talk to him for now.

This made Naruto a little upset, he didn't know when he made Nine Tails unhappy.

At this time, as the door was pushed open, several figures walked into the ward under the leadership of the nurse.

In addition to the Third Hokage who will definitely come to visit him, Hinata, Shikamaru and Choji also came with fruits, and behind them was a white-haired young man whose face couldn't be seen clearly.

After a little thought, Naruto guessed the identity of the white-haired youth.

Isn't this the Little Porn Book Lover, Kakashi Jonin, the famous unit of chakra measurement?

"Naruto, I came to see you with your friends."

After a brief greeting, the Third Hokage said to the others, "You go out for now, I have something to ask Naruto alone."

Hinata, Shikamaru and others guessed something and left the room temporarily.

After the others left, the Third Hokage looked at Naruto, "Naruto, do you still remember who attacked you?"

Hearing this, Naruto covered his head, pretending to remember seriously, and then said, "I think so, I was taking a shower, and then a middle-aged uncle broke in and attacked me without any explanation, and my memory is a little blurred later. ..."

"By the way, Grandpa Hokage, you must severely punish this uncle and put him in prison."

The Third Hokage patted Naruto on the shoulder, and comforted him, "The criminal has received the punishment he deserved, but you should think about what happened later, and what you did."

"What have I done?"

Naruto continued to recall, as if frightened, he showed a painful expression, gasping for breath.

"I remember I had a dream. I dreamed that I became a demon fox, killed that uncle, and then rushed out. I can't remember anything after that."

Having said that, Naruto looked up at the Third Hokage with confusion in his eyes, "Grandpa Hokage, it turns out that I am really a demon fox! What the villagers said is true, have I really hurt them? But that should not be my power, I don't remember that I am a demon fox."

Hearing this, the Third Hokage sighed, and then said, "You have indeed become a demon fox, but you are not a real demon fox. The real demon fox is sealed in your body, and he controls your mind."

Naruto seemed to have caught onto something, and quickly said, "Grandpa Hokage, you must have a way to help me, right? I don't want to be treated as a demon fox, can you drive it out?"

The Third Hokage shook his head, "There is nothing I can do about this, I can only do my best to cover up your identity for you, so that everyone can treat you as a normal person."

"Maybe as time goes by, everyone will be able to accept you."

After finishing speaking, the Third Hokage put a few ninjutsu scrolls on the nearby cabinet and left the ward.

'Naruto may not be able to accept the identity of Jinjuriki now, but he will get used to it one day.'

If it wasn't for checking the seal on Naruto's body and his psychological condition, he wouldn't have come here at this time at all.

He still has too much time to do.

After the Third Hokage left, other people walked into the ward.

Shikamaru and Choji expressed their concern, and then left in a hurry.

Kakashi stood at the door, took a deep look at Naruto, then turned around and caught up with the third Hokage.

After the excitement, only Naruto and Hinata were left in the ward.

After looking at each other, they looked away in embarrassment, and neither of them took the initiative to speak, causing a delicate atmosphere.

At this moment, Nine Tails' voice sounded, and he said meaningfully, "Naruto, your acting skills were pretty good just now, that dazed and painful expression was portrayed so well. I thought you really believed that you were a demon fox."

'Is this a compliment...'

After slandering, Naruto appeared in the sealed space, looked at Nine Tails who was locked in the cage, and said, "By the way, big fox, the Third Hokage came just now, why didn't you notify me?"

Nine Tails glanced at Naruto, and said angrily, "After lending you Chakra, the Hokage has strengthened the seal on your body, and my perception of the outside world has become smaller and smaller... Besides, why should I remind you?"

'The Third Hokage still secretly touched me...'

Naruto clenched his fists, strengthening the seal is a good thing for ordinary Jinchuriki, but not for him.

At this time, in the real world, Hinata came to Naruto with the peeled fruit, and said cautiously, "Mr. Naruto must be hungry, eat some fruit."

...

In the corridor of the hospital, the Third Hokage and Kakashi stood together, watching the flow of people entering and leaving the hospital.

Taking out the lighter, the Third Hokage smoked and said, "Kakashi, just ask if you have any questions. There are no other outsiders here, so you don't need to hide it in your heart."

Kakashi looked at the Third Hokage and took a deep breath, "Hokage-sama, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki in the village should be the posthumous son of Minato-sensei."

Third Hokage exhaled smoke and nodded, "That's right, Naruto is Minato's child, and Minato sealed the Nine Tails onto Naruto's body before he died, making him and Kushina's child the new Jinchuriki of the village."

After getting the answer easily, Kakashi fell into silence instead.

Over the years, he has been performing tasks in Anbu, and he has heard rumors about the fox, but he has never been able to connect with Teacher Minato's child.

He thought that the teacher's child was well taken care of by the village.

But the reality is somewhat different from what he thought.

"Master Hokage, since this is the case, why don't you take the initiative to reveal Naruto's identity?"

The Third Hokage glanced at Kakashi, and said, "Minato made a lot of enemies back then. What would they do if they knew Naruto was Minato's child? As for the rumor of the demon fox, I was indeed negligent."

After pondering for a while, the Third Hokage went on to say,

"Also, if you tell Naruto his true identity now, I'm worried that he won't be able to accept the huge psychological gap. Why don't you continue to hide it and tell him the truth when the right time comes?"

"Yes, Lord Hokage."

Kakashi did not refute the Third Hokage, he felt that this way of handling it was not appropriate, but there is really no better way right now.

After all, this truth is too cruel for the current Naruto to accept.
