I've never been this ticked off in my life. I'm not even sure if what I did was right, but hey, it felt like the best move at the time.
So, I stroll through the gate, and the whole village is there, clapping and shouting my name. It was kinda wild.
Then I see Kakashi-sensei and Sakura pushing through the crowd towards me.
"Naruto, you really nailed it today," Kakashi-sensei said.
"Yeah, you just took down the leader of the Akatsuki all by yourself. That's incredible!" Sakura added.
"Eh, it was nothing. They were a bunch of pushovers. Didn't even break a sweat," I shrugged with a smirk.
Kakashi-sensei just gives a small smile and looks at the crowd, "They're all here for you!" he said.
"Yeah, whatever. Not like I care," I replied nonchalantly.
"What do you mean?" Kakashi-sensei asked, a bit puzzled.
"Nothing. I'm just gonna go see Granny Tsunade. Is she still in the Hokage office?" I asked.
"Yes," Kakashi-sensei replied.
It took a while to get through the crowd, but eventually, everyone went back to their business. Some houses and shops were already trashed by those Pain guys before I even got there.
Anyway, I headed to the Hokage office to see Granny Tsunade, but when I saw Danzo and the two village council members still there, I thought twice about going in.
So, I was already there, turning back didn't make any sense, so I just went into the room.
I walked in and gave Granny Tsunade the lowdown on everything that went down, including what Nagato said about the Akatsuki's real motive. Well, mostly...
Out of nowhere, the old lady from the Village Council piped up,
"Naruto and Tsunade, we need to have an important discussion!" she said.
We? Does that mean all three of them? Ugh, I really don't want to talk to them...
The conversation dragged on for an hour, and we got nowhere. They don't want me on dangerous missions outside the village because the Akatsuki are targeting jinchurikis, and guess what, I'm one of their targets.
I flat out rejected that! Being controlled and ordered around, not being able to do my thing, that's ridiculous. And they seriously think the Akatsuki can target me?
Sometimes I feel like storming the whole Akatsuki base solo and taking them all out.
Anyway, I need to level up my attack and defense techniques and get stronger because who knows what's coming next.
[A. N: I'm feeling a bit lost as I try to write this—there are so many ideas swirling in my head, but as soon as I start, everything gets muddled and I don't know where to go next.
Just for fun, I've got a question: How would Naruto's plan work if he were a villain? Imagine Naruto as the bad guy!!!
