Discussion: How the Nine-Tails led Naruto astray

The old man was very happy.

Tsunade looked at Naruto stupidly. This confident smile and the gesture of never giving up seemed to have been seen somewhere before.

Oh yes, the last time I saw it was when Rope Tree was entangled with me and wanted to go to the battlefield. The last time I saw it was when Duan and I were standing on the bridge. They said that sentence at the same time.

Sister (Tsunade), my dream is to become a Hokage.

Even if I have to pay the price of my life for it.

I want to become a Hokage because I want to protect everyone, but even if I am not a Hokage, they have protected this village and used their lives to form a wall to block the enemy outside the high wall.

For some reason, tears flowed down the corners of her eyes. Tsunade hugged herself stupidly. The cold necklace hung on her chest, but it seemed to keep giving her warmth.

Tsunade cried: "Idiot kid, I survived painfully because I chose to retreat."

"Then set sail again." Naruto waved his hand nonchalantly, "We are already halfway there. Even if the mast is broken, we have to row to the destination with oars. What's the point of stopping the ship halfway? The ship is not broken. There are many ways to set sail again!"

"If you don't see it with your own eyes, who knows what is on the other side of the sea? Just like Kurama said, maybe there are clowns on the other side of the sea?"

Kurama rolled his eyes in his heart: "First of all, this is not what I meant. Secondly, don't use my words indiscriminately, okay? You don't even know what it means. Others think it's exciting, but I just think you are noisy."

The three-bedroom and one-living room are about to be taken out, and Naruto hasn't finished speaking yet.

Orochimaru may like to embarrass others like Kurama. After hearing Naruto say so much, he couldn't bear it anymore: "Uzumaki Naruto, Nine-tailed Jinchuriki, I really underestimated you. Even your parents are not as annoying as you."

"Thank you for the compliment." Naruto bowed politely to express his gratitude.

No, am I complimenting you?

Orochimaru can't do this. He hasn't been back to Konoha for so long. Is Konoha Ninja School now teaching people how to use language to interfere with each other? Orochimaru really wants to tear up the teacher of this lesson.

The murderous intent in his eyes became more and more intense. The next moment, he opened his broken mouth, accompanied by an unknown liquid spurting out of his mouth, an intact arm stretched out of his mouth, and then that hand grabbed the bleeding mouth, and then a man covered with unknown liquid crawled out of it little by little.

Orochimaru's substitution technique, Kurama knows this.

Naruto didn't know, he almost vomited, and pointed at Orochimaru who appeared again intact with his right hand shaking: "You, the water on your body, is it saliva?"

"I think it's stomach acid." Kurama silently interjected.

Orochimaru:?

No, isn't your focus a bit strange? Shouldn't you be surprised that I appeared intact?

Orochimaru's face became even paler: "Uzumaki Naruto, I have to admit that you really pissed me off. I haven't had such a huge killing intent towards a person for a long, long time. Even if the Nine-Tails breaks the seal today, you will die here."

Risking the risk of being hunted down by the entire Konoha, Orochimaru will also chop Naruto today. No one can stop him from saying what he said.

Naruto looked at Tsunade who was standing there and didn't know what he was thinking, and turned to Kurama and asked: "Kurama, if I use your chakra again, how much will it hurt?"

"It will hurt a little more than the last time I was crushed by the Fourth Raikage." Kurama replied expressionlessly.

Naruto subconsciously covered his chest, feeling a chill.

Kurama continued, "And I can guarantee that even if you don't die after using it this time, your injuries will be so severe that Tsunade can't heal it. It will take about 20 years to recover. Think about it yourself."

Anyway, all the chakra has been taken back, so even if Naruto wants to use it forcefully, he can't.

"Tsk, then I'd better hold on to Tsunade's thighs." Naruto quietly took two steps back, of course his face was still righteous.

On the other side, Tsunade stood silently in place, her eyes were dazed. She was looking at Naruto, but what appeared in her eyes was the figure of Nawase. The fool who kept saying I want to protect Konoha and I want to become Hokage has now turned into a pile of yellow earth.

Retreating will only lead to aging, and cowardice will inevitably lead to death... Naruto, you may also become part of that yellow earth, but you won't regret it, right? If you can, you are even willing to take the initiative to welcome it.

With that kind of ending, even if you know you will die, you will still protect your dream, right?

Tsunade held the necklace tightly, tears dripping down completely uncontrollably.

Bastards, Broken Rope Tree, you two are really bastards, for the sake of dreams, for that kind of thing... you don't retreat, you don't fear, but you have already aged slowly, my heart is clearly dead.

Dreams...

"I don't have a dream, but I can protect the dreams of others."

Tsunade opened her eyes wide and looked at Naruto who said this.

Naruto just smiled at her: "Kurouma told me this, but Kurama said that this sentence was not said by him, but by someone he likes and admires very much. That person seems to be called... Qiaoye?"

"I have a dream, but I can also protect the dreams of others, become Hokage for those who can't become Hokage, protect the village for those who can't protect the village, and continue to live for those who can't continue to live."

"I'm not that noble..." Tsunade said this with a trembling voice.

She is just a selfish woman.

In the distance, Orochimaru looked at Tsunade who was mocking himself, and an ominous premonition suddenly surged in his heart. He no longer hesitated. Taking advantage of the moment when Tsunade was distracted, he stretched his entire neck, and his head turned into a sharp arrow and rushed towards Naruto, with a pair of sharp teeth reflecting cold light like a blade.

Naruto secretly said that it was not good, and subconsciously wanted to mobilize chakra to dodge, but seeing Tsunade who had no reaction beside him, Naruto gritted his teeth and opened his hands directly to block Tsunade.

Then...

Bang——

Tsunade smashed Orochimaru's head with a punch, and blood mist flew everywhere with the broken street gravel, and broken meat splattered.

"Gudu——" Naruto swallowed his saliva, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

Tsunade ignored Orochimaru, raised her head and looked at Naruto, with a smile as gentle as when she faced Rope Tree.

The purple-black pattern derives from Tsunade's forehead, which is too beautiful. Tsunade holds the necklace on her chest and speaks gently: "Naruto, do you like this?"

Naruto looks at Tsunade's chest and shakes his head hurriedly.

Tsunade chuckles: "This necklace was left by my grandfather, the first Hokage. It contains his chakra. It may not be valuable, but it should be the most representative thing of Konoha."

Naruto was stunned; "So you mean the necklace..."

Kurouma is full of black lines: "What are you thinking about?"

Naruto looks righteous: "I'm also thinking about the necklace."

Kurouma: "..."
