Naruto slowly opened his eyes. Natsuo also slowly withdrew his hand.
"How about it, aren't you afraid of the Nine Tails now?" Natsuo smiled.
Naruto blushed and insisted: "I'm not afraid! I'm just cautious! I'm being careful!" Then he spouted a bunch of incomprehensible words.
Something about how caution is the most important thing for a ninja.
Something about reporting to the captain first when encountering a situation.
Something about prioritizing intelligence, and how he didn't attack the Nine Tails because he wanted to gather information about it.
Natsuo laughed heartily, with a cheerful air.
"Get along well with the Nine Tails. The tailed beasts are actually a good bunch." Natsuo smiled and said: "If the Nine Tails gets angry, you can consider doing what I do and pat its head."
Naruto: "..."
'Sorry, Natsuo-aniki. Although I have always trusted myself, aren't you overestimating me a little? Right now, the Nine Tails is still raging inside me, looking like it wants to kill you!'
Natsuo, however, smiled indifferently, then glanced meaningfully at Naruto. Although the plot had been disrupted by himself, Naruto had become a regular at the clubhouse. But perhaps this inheritor of Asura could really make the tailed beasts completely change their ways...
After comforting Naruto a few more times, he left.
Naruto, however, stared at Natsuo's figure in silence. It wasn't until Natsuo's figure completely disappeared that he relaxed and spoke up. "Natsuo-aniki, thank you." Back then, Natsuo was one of the few adults who didn't discriminate against him.
The entire Konoha, the Third Hokage, and even Jiraiya, all had their doubts about Naruto. Only Natsuo knew everything, but still accepted him, and even taught him many precious ninjutsu, guiding his training...
He touched his stomach, where the seal marks made him silent, that was the source of his pain. But since Natsuo said that the tailed beasts are a good bunch...
Naruto fell silent for a moment and whispered: "Alright, Nine Tails, stop causing trouble. Natsuo-aniki has already left."
However, the Nine-Tails within his mind continued to roar madly. "I'm going to kill him! Kill him!"
"You Uchiha bastard, if you have the guts, come in again!"
"Let's see if I can slaughter you!"
"Hey! Kid! Go find that bastard and tell him to come in again! I'm going to kill him!"
Crazy roars, the anger inside can be felt even through the seal.
Naruto said with a helpless expression: "Natsuo already pinned you down and rubbed you on the ground, even if he comes back, it will be the same... Your companion, the Eight-Tails, was also brutally beaten by Natsuo-aniki."
The Nine Tails angrily said: "That's because I was split into two by that damn Fourth Hokage! Only the Yang attribute remains in your seal. If I were in my complete state, he wouldn't be my match!"
Naruto mutters softly: "But Natsuo-aniki is the strongest in the Shinobi World."
"He defeated the AB from Kumogakure combination that worried the Fourth Hokage back then. And even in your full state, you couldn't defeat the Fourth Hokage. How are you going to fight Natsuo-aniki?"
"What did you say!?" The Nine Tails' voice suddenly rises.
"I said the Nine Tails is the strongest, the Nine Tails is the most formidable, the Nine Tails is the most amazing..."
"Don't speak so loudly, it's very noisy. How about this, I'll invite you to club, let's be friends, okay?"
"I'm not interested in human women!"
"I see..." Naruto rubs his chin, pondering for a moment, then brightens up: "How about I find you a female fox? But it seems a bit difficult to find a fox as big as you..."
Naruto is caught in a dilemma, not knowing where to find a fox of Nine Tails' size.
Nine Tails: "...?" He remained silent for three seconds, then burst into a louder roar.
"Damn kid! Enter the seal! Not only will I kill that damn Uchiha, I'll kill you too!"
...
Although Konoha suffered some losses in this Great Shinobi World War, it was far from being crippled. Just looking at the students of the Ninja School obediently staying in school was enough to prove this.
Back then, the Third Hokage had repeatedly drawn students from the Ninja School to reinforce the front lines.
Tsunade's actions have also won the hearts of the people of Konoha.
What kind of combat power can the students of the Ninja School have? Not everyone is like Kakashi, who graduated at the age of five.
The Third Hokage was completely using the new blood of Konoha as cannon fodder.
Therefore, they all praised Tsunade for having the same magnanimity as the First Hokage and inheriting the will of fire from the First Hokage. The First Hokage established the Shinobi Village to keep children from going to war. As a result, the Third Hokage reversed history, and now the great Fifth Hokage has finally set things right.
Kumogakure was also unable to resist Jiraiya's attack.
As the only remaining Kage-level expert in Kumogakure, Nii Yugito eventually managed to suppress the internal turmoil in Kumogakure, and then opted to surrender to Konoha in the hopes of being able to redeem the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki and the Fourth Raikage.
This also indicated that Konoha had gained the absolute initiative in this Great Shinobi World War.
"This is the role of top-level experts!" The Konoha Shinobi looked at the Eight Tails and then towards the Uchiha clan, deeply moved.
"If the First Hokage had chosen to join forces with Uchiha Madara to unify the World, I'm afraid the entire world would have bowed down to our great Konoha!"
If Natsuo had a favorability system he could constantly see the next notification. [Uchiha's reputation +1]
By the way, at this time, Killer Bee is still in the state of the Eight Tails. So many days have passed, and of course, he has long since regained consciousness.
But it is not known if it is because he does not want to show himself or for some other reason.
Killer Bee, however, didn't move at all, he didn't even try to transform and see if he could escape the seal. Although as a village that 'inherited' all the sealing techniques of the Uzumaki clan, Konoha shouldn't have forgotten something so simple.
But without even trying to figure it out, it's clear that something is wrong with his mentality. He didn't even try to rap, which is his favorite thing to do. He just sat silently at the entrance to Konoha.
This situation caused the Kumogakure envoys to fall silent, sighing one after another, fully realizing the current situation of their village and accepting that they will have to make even greater concessions in the upcoming negotiations.
After a few more days, the negotiations with Sunagakure finally ended and they signed an agreement with Konoha.
Similar to what Natsuo expected, rich Konoha didn't care about the resources plundered by Sunagakure. Even Tsunade, who was furious, only symbolically demanded compensation to end it.
Obviously, Tsunade wanted to end the negotiations with Sunagakure with minimal damage due to Rasa, and she also planned to recover all of Konoha's losses from Kumogakure and Iwagakure.
However, Kumogakure who was excessively weakened is likely to become food for other shinobi villages.
In order to monopolize the benefits as much as possible and reduce the income of other villages, Tsunade cannot weaken Kumogakure excessively, but can hit Iwagakure a little harder.
Jiraiya's transfer order has been prepared, just waiting for the peace treaty to be signed, and then he will specifically go and fight Onoki. But all of this is Tsunade's job.
Apart from listening to her complaints every night, Natsuo is not interested in this.
What's more important is that Naruto and Sasuke have graduated from the Ninja School. This means that the Naruto Series has officially begun...
Although as a consequence of his transmigration, almost the entire plot has completely collapsed. Natsuo doesn't know the direction of Naruto and Sasuke's fate.
They graduated successfully and are very happy, so they decided to celebrate with their Ninja School classmates. The little guys naturally chose a green grass field belonging to the Uchiha clan as the venue for their celebration.
Of course, those in charge of all the preparations are not the little ones, but the servants and chefs of the Uchiha clan, who prepared a barbecue buffet. Also joining the banquet were some of Natsuo's older children with Yukino, Yugao, and some of his wives who were free.
Naruto stood on the table and began to boast about his glorious history, such as punching Mizuki and kicking Iruka. He even declared that he would go to the front lines and return as a great hero to become Hokage.
Konohamaru, who was brought along as a 'family member', was excited and asked: "Naruto-ani, are you finally going to embark on your legendary ninja journey?"
"That's right!" Naruto said without hesitation. "I will definitely achieve great things!"
Shikamaru looked at him and advised: "Naruto, it's really troublesome... The battlefield, it's very dangerous. Genin like us should not directly participate in the battle."
But Naruto's gaze was firm. "No! I already asked Natsuo-aniki to speak for me. I must be able to receive a challenging mission so I can earn a lot of money!"
"What's wrong, Naruto? Are you missing money?" Yukino asked, looking a little worried. Since she was very aware of Naruto's life experience due to what Natsuo had told her.
"Of course there is a shortage. The Uchiha Club is just too expensive... cough, cough!" Naruto almost blurted out his true feelings and quickly forced himself to say: "The higher the reward for a mission, the more dangerous it is."
"As the future Sixth Hokage, I must prove my worth to everyone."
"Hmph, idiot." Sasuke still had a cold and aloof demeanor. "With your level, you'll wet your pants as soon as you step onto the battlefield."
"But when that happens, you can call on me to save you. As a member of the Uchiha clan, heir to the strongest lineage in the Shinobi world."
"I will give you a hand as a token of my generosity for having been my classmate, even if you are the worst student."
"Sasuke! You jerk!" Naruto was furious, showing his teeth and claws. "Looks like I'll have to show you how amazing I am!"
The two started fighting again. While Goro encouraged them to intensify the fight. Noticing Goro who only wanted the world to be in chaos, Natsuo decided that his punishment for his latest recklessness should be extended. But Natsuo still watched all this with a smile.
Whether it was Naruto or Sasuke, they both had a desire to be extraordinary. They both independently chose to go to the most dangerous frontlines.
According to Sasuke, he planned to establish the reputation of the Uchiha clan from this moment on. Although Natsuo had already been recognized as the strongest in the Shinobi world, but regaining the glory of the Uchiha clan was supposed to be Sasuke's task according to the initial task assignment.
Because Sasuke claimed that he would eventually defeat Natsuo and strengthen the reputation of the Uchiha clan. As for Natsuo... He would simply devote himself honestly to reviving the Uchiha clan. The dirty and exhausting work should fall into his hands.
Natsuo was relieved by this. Although Sasuke still feels that he must redeem himself for what Itachi did to the clan, this shows that he will not be consumed by hatred and revenge like in the Naruto Series.
On the other hand, Natsuo's wives smiled at Sasuke because of his words. Even if they were just the comforting words of a child. So they served him many delicious dishes; and although Natsuo was considered the strongest in the Shinobi world, many did not want his loved ones to go to dangerous battlefields.
Especially after Tsunade joined the Uchiha clan, they learned from her about the risk of blindness when using the Uchiha clan's Mangekyo Sharingan. Yukino and the others tested Natsuo's vision every few days, fearing that one day they would wake up and discover that her husband had gone blind.
Sasuke also showed great respect for Natsuo's wives and treated his children very well, although some of them drove him crazy.
But the fact that Sasuke maintained this respectful attitude also made Sakura envious.
"It's really nice." Sakura looked at Sasuke, who was so obedient to Natsuo's wives, and so tolerant of the children. She couldn't help but say: "Although Natsuo-aniki has so many wives, Sasuke is polite to each and every one of them."
"On the contrary, towards me..." Sakura's mouth twitched as she remembered Sasuke's gaze towards her.
It was as if he completely ignored her. This kind of disregard was even more unbearable than hostility.
Actually, apart from Natsuo... or rather, people related to Natsuo, such as Naruto, Neji, Natsuo's wives and children, Sakura didn't notice that Sasuke had any special attitude towards anyone else.
It was as if everything else didn't matter to him. And the one person Sasuke cared about the least was definitely Sakura herself.
'So how can I attract Sasuke and improve my relationship with him...' Sakura fell into deep thought.
In times like these, learning from those who came before is the best choice.
He looked at Sasuke, who treated Natsuo's wives with respect and tolerated the pranks of Natsuo's sons.
So the best method is...
"Should I also marry Natsuo?"
