Ichiraku Ramen Hall, Anyo was very generous and ordered the most expensive ramen for the two of them. Iruka was about to say no, but was blocked by Anyo: "As an author, I can't be stingy with my little readers."
Naruto ate the ramen with a satisfied look on his face and devoured it.
At this time, Iruka asked, "Naruto, why are you scribbling in that place? You should know what kind of person Lord Hokage is."
"Of course." Naruto finished the ramen in one go and continued, "To put it simply, the person who inherits the name Hokage is probably the strongest Ninja in the village. Especially the Fourth Hokage, who seems to be the hero who defended the village from the demon fox."
Iruka asked puzzledly, "Then why?"
Naruto vowed. "Because one day, I will inherit the name of Hokage, and I will surpass all previous Hokages! So I want the people in the village to recognize my power."
Minato, who was already in mid-air with Spirit Transformation Technique, was deeply moved when he heard Naruto's words.
Anyo even joked, "Minato, when you see him, do you think of you when you were a child? You were also an orphan, and you also targeted Hokage."
Minato nodded and said, "When I sealed Nine-Tails in Naruto's body, I deeply felt that he was the person who would change the destiny of the world in the future. Now, I am even more convinced of this."
Anyo struck unceremoniously. "Let's think about how he passed the graduation exam first. You were a genius when you were a child, but he is not a real Dead Last."
Minato analyzed. "It should be caused by the seal in the body. As long as teacher Jiraiya returns to the village and has his guidance, Naruto will definitely be able to embark on the road of Hokage."
While the two were talking, Naruto, who had finished his meal, looked at Anyo and asked, "By the way, writer Kurotsuchi, why do you wear a bamboo hat when you eat? Don't you find it inconvenient?"
Iruka has always been curious, but didn't have the nerve to ask.
Anyo laughed and said, "Haha, I'm afraid I'll scare you."
"It doesn't matter..."
"Naruto." Iruka interrupted, "Kurotsuchi must have something to hide. Don't force others."
"Okay, okay." Naruto didn't care, looked at Iruka and said, "Teacher, can you agree to my request?"
"What?"
Naruto pointed at Iruka's forehead and said, "Lend me your Forehead Protector to wear."
"Ah, this, no, it can only be worn after graduating from school and becoming a Ninja who can stand alone. You can wait until the exam is over tomorrow."
"What are you, stingy?"
Amid laughter, several people ended the meal.
Anyo walked towards his former cabin. I wonder if it was a coincidence that Naruto was also in this direction.
"Hey, Kurotsuchi writer, do you live here?" Naruto was very curious.
Anyo replied with a smile, "You don't have to meet me like this, just call me uncle. My old house is here, but I haven't been here for a long time, so I don't know the specific location."
"Uncle?" Naruto has grown up alone. This is the first time someone has asked him to call him uncle. He suddenly felt closer to the writer in front of him. He laughed and said, "Okay, my home is nearby. I am familiar with this place. I will take you to find him."
"Oh, thank you."
The two of them walked forward along this road, and after reaching a small high-rise building, Anyo discovered that the small house he used to live in now happened to be Naruto's residence. Is it a coincidence?
No, it should be Hiruzen Sarutobi's intention. He knows very well the connection between this child and me.
Thinking of this, Anyo said goodbye to Naruto: "I think maybe I remembered it wrong. Since you are home, you should go to bed early."
"Ah, are you leaving?" Naruto felt a little reluctant to leave.
"Here, let it accompany you." Anyo took out Little Bumblebee and placed it in front of Naruto.
"She looks so familiar." Naturally, the very nervous Naruto wouldn't know that since he was little, this Little Bumblebee has been watching him and never left.
When Naruto moved away from Little Bumblebee's sight, Anyo in front of him had disappeared without a trace, as if he had never appeared before.
Appearing again, Anyo came to a familiar Ninja Tools Shop, opened the door, and said to the dozing boss, "We're here for business."
"It's so late, isn't it already closed? It's so rude of you to barge in so casually." The boss complained and said with hazy eyes, "Want to buy something?"
Anyo said casually, "I'm not buying anything. I want you to help me print books and make some money by selling them. We'll split it half and half."
"Printing a book? Is there any mistake? This is Ninja Tools Shop. You are in the wrong place, guest." The boss was a little angry.
"Oh, really?" Anyo took out a card and threw it on the table and said, "Didn't you sell card games before? Come to think of it, selling some books would be no problem, Boss Niannian."
The moment he saw the card, Niannian suddenly woke up. He stared at the person in front of him with wide eyes and asked, "Who are you? Are you someone sent here by Scorpion?"
Anyo took off his hat, smiled gently and said, "Although my appearance has changed a bit, judging from your eyes, you should still be able to recognize me."
"It's you." Niannian recognized it and said in surprise, "After so many years, how come you are getting younger and younger as you live?"
"Maybe I have taken good care of myself. We are all old acquaintances. Boss Niannian, can we do this business?"
Niannian smiled bitterly and said, "Of course."
A day passed, and Anyo stayed here, chatting with Niannian all the time. For so many years, Scorpion really picked up the boss's daughter to play with her every year. From the first month to now for more than half a year, Tenten almost forgot about it. Now that Niannian's old father is here, he doesn't want to come back. From Niannian's words, it can be heard that Tenten is very happy staying with Scorpion. It is because of this that Boss Niannian completely puts aside his unhappiness with Scorpion.
Anyo felt very strange after hearing this. I didn't expect that the scorpion had a skill in raising a baby.
At this time, Little Bumblebee flew into the store, and the soul of Minato came out and said anxiously, "Anyo, go and help Naruto. He was tricked by a Traitor Hiding in Konoha into stealing Scroll of Seals."
"Oh, I got it." Anyo replied flatly, without any intention of leaving.
"Naruto's current situation is already difficult. After this matter is known to Ninja in the village, everyone will only reject him even more. Let's go..."
Anyo interrupted Minato: "It's just stealing books. How big of a deal is it? Didn't we steal it when we were kids?"
Minato was stunned for a moment and asked, "We? Didn't you steal it?"
Anyo said angrily, "Don't say you didn't read it, otherwise, how would you have learned Flying Thunder God Technique."
Minato didn't care to break up with Anyo: "Now is not the time to talk about this."
Anyo comforted him, "Don't worry, my Soul Division Technique has been used. Let's go and have a look."
