Naruto: Favorability System

Chapter 35: The Past is All in the Past



"Grandpa Hokage, how did you know that I was invited by Sasuke?"

This sentence caught the Third Hokage by surprise, but Naruto didn't seem to be entangled in these things, and talked about what he had seen and heard in the Uchiha clan with great interest.

Except for the phantom attack, he told the Third Hokage everything.

After listening, the Third Hokage touched his beard. He heard about a different Uchiha from Naruto.

Naruto believes that Uchiha is no different from other villagers. They all just have a cold face and a retreating attitude.

After pondering for a while, the Third Hokage said, "Then why did you go to Sasuke's house instead of Shikamaru and Choji's house?"

Naruto said without hesitation, "They didn't invite me. If I were invited, I would not refuse, but only Sasuke invited me, so I accepted."

"That's it..."

The Third Hokage thought for a moment, and then said, "However, if Sasuke invites you to be a guest again in the future, you'd better refuse, it's not good to bother their family all the time."

"No, Sasuke's mother said that I'm welcome to be a guest next time."

The third Hokage's face darkened, and his tone was unquestionable, "In the future, you are not allowed to go to the Uchiha clan. They want to use the power of the fox in your body. They didn't invite you sincerely."

Naruto's eyes widened, "Using the power of the demon fox... Aren't they companions in the village?"

Then, Naruto seemed to remember something, and said with a dark expression, "Grandpa Hokage, why is there a demon fox in my body, and, who are my parents?"

The Third Hokage looked at Naruto, "Why are you asking this?"

Naruto looked up at the Third Hokage, and his tone became firmer, "Because I want to know my identity, Sasuke's parents should know my parents, so they were so enthusiastic about me."

"But they refused to tell me. After much deliberation, only you, Grandpa Hokage, can tell me."

After learning that Naruto's identity was not leaked, the Third Hokage breathed a sigh of relief, and then said coldly, "What's the use of telling you? Your parents are already dead, and they won't come back to life after knowing it, and knowing this now won't do you any good!"

Naruto looked at the third Hokage who was about to leave, bowed his head and said, "Then when will I know the truth, I can't live in lies all the time."

The Third Hokage had already walked out of the rental house, and the voice sounded in the distance, "Let's talk about it when you become a ninja and can stand on your own. What you need to do now is to make friends and grow quickly in school."

After the third Hokage left, Naruto's gloomy expression disappeared and was replaced by jokes.

Being able to make the Third Hokage walk away with an ugly face, he has passed the test this time, so he doesn't have to worry about the Third Hokage having doubts about him.

He was just a poor kid who was kept in the dark and didn't know anything.

...

At the same time, a gathering was also held in Naka Shrine.

As a member of the "Love" family, the Uchiha always like to hold gatherings.

They called all the open-eyed clansmen, made improper remarks in the Naka Shrine, and expressed complaints about Konoha's high-level officials.

However, today's gathering is not a routine meeting once a month, but an interim meeting for the gathering of Anbu in the afternoon, and it was held specifically to discuss how to deal with high-level officials.

As the patriarch of the clan, Fugaku stood in front of the statue, announcing the start of the clan meeting with an ugly face.

A radical faction ninja immediately stood up and said excitedly, "Today's incident is a provocation against Uchiha by the higher-ups. They sent the Jinchuriki here to investigate and deal with us."

As soon as the words fell, another Uchiha stood up, "I can also testify to this point that the appearance of the Jinchuriki in the clan is a trap set by Konoha's high-level officials. They have placed a restriction on the Jinchuriki, which can rebound the illusion, which has caused Yuantai to not wake up until now."

"Also, as soon as the Jinchuriki's front foot reached the clan ground, the Hokage appeared outside the clan ground... Isn't this a trap?"

Listening to the impassioned speeches of the clansmen, Shisui and Itachi's expressions became more and more ugly.

They knew the inside story, this was not a trap. It was just an invitation from the two children out of friendship, but it was interpreted as a high-level plan against Uchiha.

At this moment, Shisui seemed to think of something, and whispered into Itachi's ear, "Itachi, I remember that Patriarch Fugaku knew that all of this was a misunderstanding. Why didn't he explain it, instead he has deepened the misunderstanding."

Itachi remained silent, just staring at Fugaku on the stage with his eyes.

Seeing Itachi's eyes, Shisui paused for a moment and said, "Actually, I don't blame him, Hokage-sama is also sensitive, almost thinking that the clan is going to release the Nine Tails."

"It's all because the two sides didn't communicate well and didn't want to trust each other."

"As long as we continue to act as a bridge, connecting the high-level and the clan, sooner or later, both sides will be able to let go of their prejudices and understand each other."

Itachi still didn't speak. Seeing this scene, Shisui could only sigh helplessly.

After all the Uchiha vented their grievances, the Clan Association came to an end.

Opposing the high-level is just a slogan, they just want a better life, and they have to get up early tomorrow to go to work in the security forces.

After the clan meeting was over, Fugaku looked at Shisui and Itachi in the corner, and called a few of his confidants into the room deep in the shrine.

Really big things often only need a few people to discuss before they can be decided.

Shisui and Itachi also noticed Fuhaku's actions.

Instead of going to join in the fun, they walked out of Naka Shrine side by side.

After a while, they came to a remote cliff.

This remote cliff is far away from everyone, they can speak their minds freely here.

Hearing the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves, Itachi sighed softly and said,

"Father really hasn't given up the idea of ​​a coup d'état. Not only has he secretly prepared materials such as detonation talismans, but he also used the Jimchuriki at the clan meeting to incite people's hearts."

"This time, they must be discussing the coup behind our backs. Why can't they understand the village?"

Shisui patted Itachi on the shoulder, and comforted softly, "If Clan Leader Fugaku really plans to launch a coup, I will stop them before they launch a coup."

"How do you plan stop them?"

Itachi was a little curious, he didn't think Shisui had such strength.

Although Shisui has the Mangekyo Sharingan, but his strength is still weaker than his own.

In addition, standing on his father's side is a clan of elite Jonin with Sharingan.

Shisui pointed to his own eyes, "Of course, by relying on these eyes. As long as we change the thinking of Clan Leader Fugaku and let him give up the idea of ​​a coup, peace will naturally usher in the village and the clan."

"But he is your father after all. I don't want to use this power until the end."
