Naruto: The new beginning

In the days that followed, Naruto would tell Kurama the stories of his previous life. Unconsciously, the relationship between the fox and him grew much closer.

At least Naruto refrained from hitting the iron gate in front of him. He didn't beat it.

Of course, he also finished telling the story of the original Naruto to Minato and Kushina, during which their reactions ranged from shock and sadness to anger.

As for what action Minato would take after learning this information, Naruto didn't know. Judging solely from Kushina's reaction, she couldn't wait to catch Obito and hang him.

After the beating, she might consider showing sympathy and forgiveness, or not.

Unfortunately, when she thought about it, she knew that the child must be hiding very well. Even the Akatsuki organization had not yet reached that level in the story.

For instance, Itachi was still a child, and he heard that he was preparing for the Chunin exams.

The Great Shark was still in the Mist Village.

Deidara was a student of the Third Tsuchikage. Despite Deidara often annoying his sensei, Ōnoki was still proud of him.

He was a member of the Explosion Corps and possessed the Explosion Release kekkei genkai.

In the end, Minato solemnly instructed Naruto not to discuss these matters with anyone again, promising to do his utmost to eliminate the danger and prevent Konoha from facing the kind of catastrophic crisis depicted in the story.

The most pressing task at the moment was to remove the hidden detonation seals within Konoha Village.

Genno was originally a ninja from the Land of Mountains, Kagero Village, More than twenty years ago, he was ordered to infiltrate Konoha disguised as a craftsman.

During the village's construction, he concealed detonation seals in every corner of Konoha, with all the seals interconnected like a vast net, capable of blowing up the entire village.

The original plan was to detonate them during a war between the two villages, but Konoha preemptively seized Kagero Village's territory.

After peace negotiations between the two villages, Genno never received orders to proceed.

Subsequently, Kagero Village disappeared, and no one could give him orders. Thus, these detonation seals remained hidden in place.

However, Naruto had always thought this situation was absurd. How could so many people, especially ninjas with enhanced sensory talents, be unaware of these seals despite years of training?

How come the ninja dogs introduced into the village by dog breeders never spotted them?

Perhaps it was the will of the universe (Author) that kept them hidden...

But now that Minato knows about them, there was no need to worry. He could simply call on ninjas to search and dismantle them.

This time, maybe Naruto could make a small profit. Detonation seals scattered throughout the village were quite valuable.

The explosion seal situation was handled with remarkable ease, and Konoha narrowly avoided another calamity.

Naruto didn't participate in this matter and continued to carry out his training tasks day by day. Each day, when he sparred with Kimimaro, he found himself struggling and could only occasionally take out his frustration on Sasuke.

This routine continued until the end of the year. Naruto's suggestion to hold a New Year's festival eventually turned into a celebration of Konoha's unique traditions.

The scene was filled with the sound of drums and fireworks. It was bustling with people. While not quite to the extent of what Naruto had imagined, lanterns adorned the village, fireworks illuminated the sky, and people moved about, creating a festive atmosphere throughout the village.

Minato and Kushina led Kimimaro and Naruto to enjoy themselves.

Naruto followed his parents with great interest, experiencing the unique festival celebration. Even the typically stoic Kimimaro occasionally displayed a happy smile. It seemed that he had fully adapted and genuinely enjoyed the life he now had.

****

In February, Kimimaro had been in Konoha for over half a year. For the past six months, he had been receiving basic education at home, and now it was time for him to attend the ninja academy.

Of course, eight-year-old Kimimaro was placed directly in the third grade.

On his first day of school, the entire family accompanied Kimimaro to the ninja academy. When he entered the third-grade classroom, it created quite a sensation.

"Is that the Fourth Hokage-sama? He's so handsome!"

"I'm going to become Hokage one day!"

"The Fourth Hokage's wife is so beautiful!"

…

And when Kimimaro went to the front of the class with the teacher to introduce himself, the girls couldn't contain their excitement:

"The new transfer student is so handsome!"

"Ah~Kimimaro~"

…

Kushina stood by the classroom door and smiled. "It looks like you're quite popular, Kimimaro. Get along well with your classmates."

"Yes, Mother," Kimimaro nodded.

After that, Three of them bid farewell to Kimimaro.

Minato said, "I'm going to attend the opening ceremony of the first grade next. Do you want to take a look?"

Naruto shook his head: "No, I'll watch it when I go to school." 'I don't want to listen to the third hokage's speech at all, so please forgive me.'

Kushina followed and said, "Then I'll take a look when I send Naruto to school."

Minato was helpless, smiled, and said, "Okay, see you later."

Kushina waved her hand: "Goodbye, Minato!"

The mother and son walked out of the school, and as soon as they went out, they saw children fighting... and saw three children bullying a little loli... ahem, a Hyuga.

"So ugly, you white-eyed monster!"

"Monster!"

"Monster!"

"Woooooo..." The little girl squatted on the ground and cried while covering her face.

"Let go of that girl!" Naruto shouted, trying to act like a hero. 'Am I a lolicon now?'

The three bullies turned around: "Hey, there are adults here, run!"

"Oh!" x2

The three bullies ran away in a hurry.

Naruto walked over, gently pulled up the little girl, and asked, "Are you alright?"

The little girl finally held back her tears: "Thank... Thank you."

Kushina came over and touched the little girl's head: "Are you the child of the Hyuga family?"

"Well." The little girl fiddled with her fingers nervously: "My name is Hinata Hyuga."

Kushina pulled Hinata's little hand and said with a smile, "Let's take you home."

Hinata obediently followed Kushina's side. Naruto didn't add any drama but just observed. The four-year-old Hinata was quite cute, ' am I becoming a Lolicon?'

As he walked, Kushina was still talking about her deeds: "When I was a kid, there were punks who laughed at my hair and said that the red hair looked like a tomato, and then I beat them all one by one. Hahaha, then no one dared to laugh at me in person! Little Hinata, be brave!"

Hinata looked at Kushina with big eyes admiringly, how amazing!

Looking at Hinata's reaction, Naruto thought to himself, if Kushina were to teach Hinata, she might end up turning her into a fierce, fearless version of herself!
