Kawasaki, with his back to Tsunade, asked, "Lady Tsunade, do you like this gift?"
"Naruto is quite likable."
Tsunade could sense Naruto's longing for family affection.
She also longed for family affection, but unfortunately, after Nawaki passed away, she had no relatives left.
Although Kawasaki initially made Naruto call her "older sister," Naruto later genuinely started calling her that too.
Naruto especially longs for family, friendship, and companionship.
Her younger brother, Nawaki, had been dead for many years, and this was the first time Tsunade had ever met someone who looked so much like Nawaki.
Tsunade was very happy, but after hearing Naruto's words, she also had some doubts.
"What is your purpose in training Naruto like this?"
Tsunade actually arrived when Naruto and Kawasaki had just started chatting.
15. It's not hard to tell from Naruto's words that he has already been receiving stable training every day, even though he hasn't graduated from the Ninja Academy yet.
Kawasaki grinned and said, "The ninja world today is far more dangerous than Lady Tsunade imagined."
"And Naruto has even more potential than Lady Tsunade imagined."
Tsunade waved her hand: "Don't be so formal. We're already so familiar with each other, just call me Tsunade."
"Okay, Tsunade, no problem."
Kawasaki couldn't help but chuckle after he finished speaking.
Tsunade was puzzled and felt somewhat confused.
Kawasaki stopped laughing and continued, "The ninja world may undergo tremendous changes in a few years. I just want Naruto to have more power to protect himself."
"A dramatic change?"
Tsunade chewed on the word.
"Kawasaki, what are you referring to?"
"Let's talk about it later."
Kawasaki sighed. Many things he said might not be believed by anyone.
After all, not everyone can accept that there is an alien in this world preparing for resurrection.
And a group of aliens who are preparing to invade Earth.
"Hey! Kawasaki!"
Tsunade is impatient and hates hesitation.
He was about to knock Kawasaki on the head when he said that.
Kawasaki was so startled that he quickly changed the subject:
Do you know what Naruto's childhood was like?
Even though Tsunade knew Kawasaki was deliberately changing the subject, he still piqued her curiosity.
"Naruto when he was a child..."
...
Naruto and his group walked out of the Uchiha's residence.
Naruto recognized Kenichi Uchiha.
"Uncle Kenichi, it's been a long time!"
Kenichi was responsible for guarding the clan, but when Naruto came to the Uchiha clan, he usually went to see Fugaku, and would leave after setting up a shadow clone.
Therefore, I rarely encounter Kenichi.
The last time I met him was several years ago when I first met Kawasaki-senpai.
Jianyi is tall and robust, with a serious expression.
Now, on Uchiha territory, he rarely spoke up and replied, "Yeah, long time no see, Naruto, you've grown so tall."
Naruto chuckled: "I've been eating well and exercising a lot these past few years, that's why I've grown so fast."
"Really? That's great."
Kenichi is usually not very talkative and not very good at responding to conversations.
But Naruto talked on and on, engaging Kenichi in lively conversation the whole way.
Even though Kenichi didn't respond much, Naruto still enjoyed it immensely.
Back within Konoha's territory, four masked ANBU members suddenly jumped down from the tree.
The Uchiha clan warily surrounded Naruto, and both sides remained silent.
Naruto stopped and waved his hands, saying, "Are you the Anbu sent by the Third Hokage? Uncle Kenichi is here to take me home."
The ANBU members scrutinized the Uchiha group for a moment, then silently jumped back up into the tree.
The Uchiha didn't say anything, but slowly surrounded Naruto and escorted him home.
"Goodbye, Uncle Kenichi."
Naruto said goodbye to Kenichi as usual.
This time, however, Kenichi turned his back to Naruto and waved his hand lightly to indicate that he understood.
Naruto entered the room, turned on the light, and looked around. The room he had cleaned so thoroughly seemed a little cold and deserted.
"Good luck, Naruto."
Naruto secretly encouraged himself.
Then, he quickly washed up and climbed into bed.
I was thinking to myself, I can go there after school tomorrow...
......
Outside the root base.
Jiraiya, fully armed, moved forward silently, followed by a dense swarm of ANBU members.
"Little guy, you actually summoned us too. Is the opponent difficult to deal with?"
"Keep your voice down, honey. Jiraiya is launching a surprise attack. Don't let anyone find out."
Jiraiya's face was covered in heavy makeup, and there were many small dots stuck to the tip of his nose.
Like the Fukasaku couple, his eyes also became horizontal pupils.
Jiraiya lowered his voice and said, "In order to reduce casualties, we have no choice but to activate Sage Mode."
"I'm so sorry to bother everyone, I owe you all a favor, sister."
As they were talking, Jiraiya had already reached the edge of the Root.
There were no obstacles around him to hide behind, after all, he was followed by so many people.
At this moment, Jiraiya stopped speaking and began to run forward at high speed.
The secret agents behind them quickly followed.
Jiraiya conjured a giant Rasengan in his hand.
Immortal method, super large jade spiral pill!
With a deafening roar, a large hole was instantly blasted into the root base.
"who is it!"
"There is an intruder!"
Jiraiya took the lead and quickly charged in.
......
Chaos reigned at the base, with many people fleeing outwards.
This is the first time the base has been attacked since its establishment.
In a ward at the root.
A gray-haired boy wearing only a half-shirt was lying on the bed.
"Cough cough..."
He coughed a few times and sat up in bed.
Looking at the panicked crowd outside.
An ominous premonition rose in my heart.
They were able to launch an attack on Root from within Konoha Village.
There seems to be only one possibility...
The answer is obvious.
He had absolutely no loyalty to Danzo and had no intention of going out to fight.
Besides, my days are numbered.
Xin quietly slipped out, and luckily, the outside was in chaos, so no one noticed him, the patient.
The letter had been investigated long ago and found a secret passage leading to the outside from the root.
I had intended to tell my younger brother Sai before I died, but Sai isn't here now.
There was no one behind the roots.
He went into a room, pushed open a cabinet, revealing a small hole.
Xin walked a short distance inside, confirmed that this was the secret passage, then returned and placed two amulets on his head.
A hissing sound... hissing... a faint sound rang out.
Boom!
