Chapter 123 The Voice Next Door Three days later, Yunyin... "Master Naruto is back!" I don't know who shouted, but for a moment, the streets of Yunyin Village were deserted. As soon as Naruto entered the village, he saw the villagers gathered on both sides of the street, cheering enthusiastically to welcome his return. "Ah—you are so handsome, sir!" "I heard that you made a big splash this time and severely suppressed Konoha!" "Humph, those ungrateful guys from Konoha deserve it, haha!" "News spreads quickly..." Hearing the discussions in the crowd, Naruto smiled and waved to the people on the roadside generously, which immediately aroused another round of excited shouts.
Behind him, the few people who followed him were a little bit surprised. No one expected that Naruto would be so popular in Kumogakure. Gaara stared blankly at the cheering crowd on the roadside. As a Jinchūriki, he dared not even think about such a scene. Hong's eyes widened slightly. She now finally understood why Naruto, who was obviously from Konoha, was so ruthless to Konoha. "why?" Gaara didn't understand: "Aren't they afraid of you?" "My sworn brother is also a Jinchūriki, but before I came, he had gained people's recognition through his own efforts, so the attitude of the Kumogakure people towards Jinchūriki is not bad." Naruto smiled and said, "Plus, I am strong, handsome, and was invited back by the Raikage himself, so it is natural that I am popular." “There’s a saying that goes, if you bloom, butterflies will come to you. That’s why I say you don’t need to care about what others think. As long as you make yourself stronger and better, happiness will naturally come to you.” "I see…" Gaara nodded. Be strong and good-looking. He turned to look at Tayuya beside him and asked politely, "Am I handsome?" Tayuya's face turned cold: "Huh? Who are you? So disgusting!" Gaara was stunned and his face gradually became gloomy. No handsome, no happiness... "Hey, what are you talking about?" Kankuro immediately jumped out to speak up for his brother: "If Gaara isn't handsome, then who do you think is handsome?" Tayuya sneered, "Why should I tell you? Pancake face!" Pancake face! It was as if a huge rock had hit Kankuro, crushing his spine.
"Girls shouldn't talk so harshly, Tayuya." Naruto reminded her casually, and Tayuya's expression quickly changed from arrogant to embarrassed. "Yes, sir..." "Also, Gaara, don't worry about Tayuya having a bad temper. I personally think you're pretty handsome." Naruto comforted them casually, and brought a few people to the Raikage Building, and kicked open the office door with a bang. "I am back!" "Oh! My Ou Doudou is back! Hahahaha!!" Seeing Naruto coming back, Ai smiled boldly. He had already heard about what happened to Naruto in Konoha. In the past, he had never targeted Konoha because of his concern for Naruto, but now Naruto has stomped on Konoha's face, which makes him feel that the ambition of Kumogakure to unify the ninja world may be realized by Naruto with a great probability! "I heard you did a great job this time!" Ai stood up and patted Naruto on the shoulder, looking at Neji behind him, feeling excited again. "White eyes..." Neji frowned slightly and said, "Lord Raikage, I am only following Lord Naruto, not joining Kumogakure, please don't misunderstand me." Naruto is Naruto, and Kumogakure is Kumogakure, and Neji is very clear about this. No matter what, his father's death was caused by Kumogakure, and he couldn't ignore that. "I'm sorry about what happened back then, but I won't regret it." Ai sighed: "Whether you want to follow Naruto or whatever, it's up to you. If you have any requests, just tell me. This is just a small compensation." Neji nodded slightly to express his gratitude, showing the minimum courtesy and not making things difficult for Naruto. "This is Gaara, the Shukaku Jinchuriki, and Kankuro, the puppeteer. You can send him to the Ko-nin Club." Naruto pulled the two of them over, and Ai's eyes suddenly gleamed with excitement. Shukaku Jinchuriki! Including Gaara, there are now four Jinchuriki in Kumogakure. There are only nine tailed beasts in the ninja world, and Kumogakure alone accounts for half of them, including the two strongest ones. As for Kankuro standing aside, he did not ignore it. For ordinary ninjas, the puppeteer is still very difficult to deal with. "Hahaha, good!" Ai patted Gaara's shoulder cheerfully. Looking at Gaara's expression, one could tell that his life had not been very good in the past. "Kumogakure will tolerate every companion! From now on, we are all one family!" "companion…" Gaara muttered quietly, "I want to follow Naruto first."
"All right! It's time for you to learn how to control the power of the tailed beasts." Ai was not unhappy at all. The more subordinates Naruto had, the more stable his position would be after taking over as Raikage. He also doesn't need to worry that Naruto will quit the job just two days after taking over because of busy official duties. He turned his head and looked at Ino. He remembered this girl, Naruto's childhood sweetheart. Glancing at Kurenai and Tayuya again, Ai gave Naruto a questioning look. "Guard." Naruto was brief and to the point. "Um…" Ai thought for two seconds, but ultimately said nothing. He was very dissatisfied with Naruto's obsession with beauty, thinking that it would wear down his will, but fortunately Naruto's strength and physique were strong enough, so there was no need to worry about excessive indulgence, so he stopped trying to persuade him. But when the three brothers stood together, Naruto always looked a little out of place, which made Elio feel a little regretful. "Speaking of which, Naruto, when do you plan to take over the position of Raikage?" Ai asked impatiently. Now that the strength of Kumogakure has reached its peak, it urgently needs a war to completely solidify its title as the strongest ninja village. "hold on." Naruto was not in a hurry: "I need a map that marks the locations of all the lakes in the Ninja World with the Fire Country as the center." Ai nodded: "Okay, I'll send someone to find it for you right away!" "Also, issue a designated mission, led by Uchiha Itachi, and members Sasuke, Neji, and Gaara, responsible for exploring the intelligence under these lakes." Naruto looked at Neji and said, "I am looking for a space-time tunnel. I will pass on the information as soon as I find it. This is related to the evolution of the Byakugan, so the mission is set as S-level. If everything goes well, I can succeed to the throne after the mission is completed." "S-rank..." Sasuke was a little excited when he heard this: "With brother..." After so many years, he can finally go on a mission with Onisan, and the first time is an S-level mission, which makes Sasuke feel excited. Neji was also excited. He didn't expect that as soon as he arrived in Kumogakure, Naruto put the evolution of the Byakugan on the agenda. This made him feel valued for the first time after he had just escaped from the constraints of a caged bird. After simply reporting the itinerary to Ai, Sasuke couldn't wait to rush home to share the good news of killing Danzo with his tribe members. After settling Neji and the others, Naruto returned home. After entering the house and kicking off his shoes, Naruto took off his forehead protector and threw it to Tayuya, then dived into Mabui's soft arms. "Welcome home!" Mabui hugged Naruto and spoke softly. Karin looked eagerly at the forehead protector that Naruto had worn in Tayuya's hand, then took off her own.
"Change it!" "roll!" Without saying a word, Tayuya tied the forehead protector around his neck. Xianglin curled her lips: "Tsk, stingy..." Samui glanced at Hong who was a little at a loss, took off her shoes, and rubbed her sore shoulders. "Come in, I'll find you a room." "Do I live here too?" Hong felt a little at a loss. She had lived alone for many years, and she felt a little uncomfortable with Naruto's family having so many people. "What else? Stay at my house?" Samui walked into the house and Hong hurriedly followed. Walking through the spacious and sunny living room, Samyi introduced the interior environment to Hong. "The kitchen is on the left side of the living room, and the dining room is next to it, but people usually eat in the living room. There are signs on the doors of the corridor on the right side, including gym, study, bedroom..." “So spacious…” Hong looked around and found that the living room alone was twice the size of the first floor of her previous home. "This place used to be used to receive noble daimyo. Aside from the Uchiha clan's land, there is no better building in Kumogakure than this one." "Uchiha clan land?" Hong was a little surprised. Did the Uchiha live so comfortably in Kumogakure? Did they live better than Naruto? Samui saw her confusion and said, "It was built by the adults." "understood." Hong nodded knowingly. She and several of her friends from the same period had watched Naruto's movie. Kakashi even complained that there was a junior in the Anbu who also had the ability of Wood Release, but compared with Naruto, he was only at the level of building a house. Samui glanced and took Hong to the second to last bedroom at the end of the corridor. "This will be your room from now on." "The one inside is..." "My Lord's room." Samui said calmly, "Kana's room is closest to the living room. She is in charge of the family's diet. Please let her know in advance if there are any dietary restrictions." Hong nodded, looking around the room. The room is very spacious. As the entire building is built on the mountain, the windows are large and the lighting is very good. There are also dressing tables and wardrobes. But she was still a little confused, because she only saw the room with the names of Karin and her daughter written on it. Considering that Samui and Naruto's relationship clearly goes beyond that of ordinary friends, she shouldn't even have her own room.
It was not until the evening when she heard the fierce and competitive sounds of joy from Mabuyi and Samui next door that she reacted with a blushing face. These two people actually live directly in Naruto’s room! And have you already broken through to that kind of relationship? Or both together? Is this illegal, you two?! "Sir...like...Naruto-sama--" Listening to Sam's intermittent, sometimes sobbing, sometimes high-pitched voice next to her, Hong buried her head deeply in the pillow. Although she was two or three years older than Samui, Naruto was not wrong about one thing: she and Asuma had not yet reached that level of relationship. In fact, Asuma has only returned to Konoha for a few years, and he only started trying to pursue her recently, but the progress is only occasionally having a meal together, going shopping, etc. If nothing unexpected had happened and things had developed normally, Asma might have succeeded in a few months, but he never expected that the yellow-haired Uzumaki would show up and intercept his plan. So until now, I have never experienced such a thing. "Wang Wang!" There was another strange noise coming from next door, and Hong's already rosy cheeks quickly became red. Although I haven't experienced it yet, many of my friends and best friends are already wives and mothers. Sometimes, at gatherings, some sexy topics are inevitable, and in private, I occasionally get to know them secretly. So she instantly understood what was going on next door... That woman...has no good intentions! Thinking of Samui's calm yet meaningful gaze during the day, Hong silently clenched his fists. She did it on purpose! Deliberately destabilizing me, trying to lead me to fall... But I won't let you have your way! As a genjutsu-type ninja, Hong had no doubt about the strength of his mental willpower. Although she couldn't compare to those who used pupil techniques, it was just a little sound. Although a little embarrassing, it was impossible for her to be shaken. She was quite confident about this. Then...the sound continued until five or six in the morning. These bastards! Hong covered her head, feeling both embarrassed and angry. The blonde girl, as if afraid that she couldn't hear her, actually leaned against the wall! She could even feel the walls vibrating! How could there be such a wanton, depraved, shameless woman in the world! In a daze, Hong finally fell into a deep sleep. Then after a while, there was a sudden knock on the door. Kurenai Yuhi opened the door with a sullen face, and outside the door was Naruto, who had just finished washing up and looked refreshed. "Samui and Mabui are taking a rest today, you will be the guard." "..."
Today's update! I deleted hundreds of words and almost didn't post it... (End of this chapter)
