The next day
Morning
Konoha Village
Naruto's house
Hiruzen Sarutobi placed an envelope on the table.
"This is this month's living expenses, don't spend it recklessly."
After saying that, he was ready to leave.
Naruto quickly stepped forward and grabbed his sleeve.
"Hey, Old Man Third, do you know who my mother is?"
Hiruzen was stunned for a moment and remained silent. He still didn't intend to tell Naruto.
"When you are supposed to know, you will know. I believe it will be soon."
Maybe next month, maybe several months, Naruto will know.
Naruto grasped the hem of the Hokage robe with both hands to prevent the old man from escaping.
"But I want to know now! Old Man Third, please, just tell me!"
Hiruzen's expression suddenly changed: "Oh no! Damn! I forgot! I'm still boiling water at home, I have to go back quickly!"
After saying that, his body exploded with a "bang" and turned into a cloud of smoke.
Naruto felt his hands empty and pouted in dissatisfaction.
He lowered his head and touched his stomach.
"Big fox, do you know who my mother is?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Kurama's sneer came to his ears: "You were picked up from the trash can by your father. You don't have a mother."
Naruto didn't believe it at all: "Tsk! Do you think You are lying to a three-year-old child. I am six years old this year. You can't fool me with such words!"
"Well, you were actually born by your father after he carried you for ten months alone. It was really hard for him back then." As he said this, Kurama let out a deep, theatrical sigh, flicking a nonexistent tear away with his massive claw.
Little Naruto felt the sheer depth of emotion in the big fox's voice. His small heart clenched. His innocent mind spun.
His lips trembled.
His big blue eyes shimmered with tears.
"It turns out… I really don't have a mother…" he whispered, looking down at his tiny hands like a tragic hero.
In the sealed space, Kurama's grin was so wide that even Pain's Almighty Push couldn't flatten it. If he had a tail for every time he had pulled a prank like this, he'd have… well, he already had nine.
Naruto wiped his nose. "What about my father? Who is he? Why have I never seen him?"
Kurama sighed even deeper this time, staring into the void as if reminiscing about a past life.
"He... was just an ordinary human being. As for why you have never seen him…"
Kurama suddenly lowered his voice, his expression turning devastatingly tragic.
"Naruto, have you ever heard of… explosive diarrhea?"
Silence.
Little Naruto's body shook as if he had just taken a full-power Chidori to the chest as shown on broadcast before.
His entire world collapsed in an instant.
His world shattered into pieces.
He staggered backward, his tiny frame trembling. His knees buckled. His breath hitched. The weight of this terrible revelation crushed his very soul.
"He… he didn't make it?" Naruto whispered, horrified.
Kurama closed his eyes and nodded solemnly. "Flushed away… far, far too soon."
Naruto collapsed onto his bed, sobbing, his tiny fists clenching the sheets.
Nobody knew how long he lay there, consumed by grief. Minutes? Hours? The concept of time no longer mattered.
Then—
Grrrrrrrrr.
Naruto's stomach let out a monstrous roar
"…I'm so hungry. I wanna go eat Ichiraku Ramen."
Kurama opened one eye.
Naruto, the boy who had just experienced the most devastating existential crisis of his life, had been completely defeated by hunger.
After all, he was still a child, and his attention was diverted very quickly.
Thinking of Ichiraku Ramen, Naruto suddenly became much more energetic, and even temporarily forgot about his father who "explosive diarrhea"
Naruto wiped his tears, quickly put on his clothes, and rushed out of the house...
Walking on the streets of Konoha Village.
Naruto looked around and felt like something was different.
The people around him no longer seemed to look at him with hatred.
It seemed that when they saw Naruto, they still thought of their family members who died at the hands of the Nine-Tails, so when they looked at Naruto again, their eyes could not be described as kind, let alone guilt.
This is how a Jinchūriki is treated before he is recognized by the people.
Naruto's ears twitched as he passed a small park.
He walked over quietly and parted the grass.
There were a few kids about his age there, about to play a ninja game, but they hadn't started yet.
One of the children said loudly with a righteous look on his face: "This time I will be the savior of the ninja world, Uzumaki Naruto! The ninja world should be protected by me!"
Little Naruto was stunned for a moment.
Play as himself?
Another child in the park yelled, "No! I want to be Uzumaki Naruto!"
"Let me be the boss, let me be the boss!"
"I don't care! I'm going to be Uzumaki Naruto! You guys be the bad guys."
A certain naughty kid realized that his voice was not as loud as the other person's, and he couldn't win the argument, so he showed a sarcastic look and snorted, "You annoying little fox demon."
The child who was going to play Naruto was confused.
"Huh? Why did it start from here?!"
One of the children pointed at the naughty kid and couldn't help laughing, "You sound like my mother."
Naruto had a huge grin on his face and was about to walk over to play with them when he was spotted by one of the kids.
"Waaaaaah! No! Uzumaki Naruto is coming! Everyone run!"
The group of naughty kids immediately scattered like birds and beasts.
As for why they ran...
Maybe it was the advice from the adults at home?
The smile on Naruto's face froze.
"Oh, forget it. I'd better go eat Ichiraku Ramen."
Naruto turned around dejectedly and walked towards Ichiraku Ramen Shop.
On the way,
Naruto found that there seemed to be more and more people on the road, and dozens of Konoha ninjas wearing ninja vests were standing on the roadside to maintain order.
The further he went in, the louder the noise became.
Until Naruto saw that there were a lot of people in front of him. At a glance, there were nearly a hundred people crowded in the small street. Among them, some people started fighting for some unknown reason. Several ninjas hurried over to separate them.
"Don't push! You damned outsiders!"
"Just squeeze in!"
"So what if I squeeze you? Are the natives of Konoha so great?"
"What's so great about that? You bastards! This is my home! You're all blocking the way here, not queuing up! How am I going to get through? How am I going to get home?"
"You're scolding me, right? I dare you to say it again! I've long been annoyed by the way you Konoha villagers treat Naruto. I'm going to beat you to death!"
"Damn it! Don't you ninjas care about anything? The Hokage asked you to come here to maintain law and order, not to just stand there and watch! Where are the Uchiha guards? Where did those guys go?"
"Yeah! Where is the police force? I'm going to complain to the Hokage about their dereliction of duty! Such a big thing happened in the village, and they didn't come out to take care of it!"
"If the guys from the police force were here, would these outsiders dare to be so arrogant? Damn it!"
The Konoha ninjas were trying to stop the fights or maintain law and order, and they were all suffering.
These outsiders were all potential clients of the village. For the sake of Konoha's image, they dared not behave too harshly.
Among these people, there are people of all kinds of identities. The majority are civilians and wealthy businessmen from the Fire Country, and there are also some ninjas from small villages who pass through the Fire Country while on missions.
They all came to Ichiraku Ramen and happened to meet Naruto, the savior.
This is only the first day. I believe that in the days to come, the flow of people in Konoha Village will only increase.
People with business acumen have already built an inn outside Konoha Village.
This is the impact brought by the savior of the ninja world.
Although no one knows yet how Naruto saved the world.
Someone in the crowd shouted, "Naruto is here! Everyone line up! Let Naruto eat ramen first!"
"Naruto? Where?"
"Don't go over there! Don't scare him! Naruto-chan is just a child!"
"That's right! Don't go over there! Everyone, line up! Don't scare him!"
Those who can come to Konoha Village specifically for Naruto are naturally people who like him very much and feel very sorry for what happened to little Naruto.
Naruto stared blankly at the group of people who were originally noisy, scrambling to line up in front of Ichiraku Ramen.
It was a long procession, quite spectacular.
