As Ning Feng looked at the baby sleeping peacefully in his arms, his skin as delicate as a porcelain doll's, a faint smile curled his lips.
Perhaps only a Naruto fan like him, who had watched it countless times, truly knew what this little fellow before him had gone through in the original story.
In the original story, this little fellow should theoretically have borne his father's surname, but decisions made by certain members of Konoha High Command had ultimately left him named Naruto Uzumaki...
His name alone revealed how those members of Konoha High Command had ostensibly protected Naruto while actually isolating him...
Had Naruto not been full of positivity since childhood and able to work through his feelings himself, he would probably have become a second Sasuke long ago.
Not to mention all the loathing the people of Konoha had shown Naruto ever since his birth. Ning Feng would never believe Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others had not helped fuel it.
Moreover, throughout Naruto's childhood, much of what he had to eat and use was close to expiring. This was hardly the treatment a hero's child deserved.
Simply put, by driving off Obito Uchiha this time, Ning Feng had not only changed the course of the entire Shinobi World's story, but also the course of Naruto Uzumaki's life.
Just imagine: if Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki had not died in battle, and Naruto Uzumaki had grown up under their guidance, his combat strength in the future would surely have surpassed that of the original story.
At the very least, Naruto Uzumaki would not have had to endure that cold treatment and loneliness.
As he quietly watched the baby sleeping peacefully in his arms, Ning Feng's smile grew even wider.
Heaven knew how much sympathy Ning Feng had felt
