Naruto: Uchiha Youngjo's Konoha Spring

Chapter 48 Danzo is dead, but the process is still there

After Uchiha Zaito took the troublesome meatball stall owner back to the security department, he continued to lead his men out on patrol.

"Xiu Ming, you did a good job today. You did not act rashly regarding the matter concerning the child. Instead, you reported to me before taking action. I will commend you to Captain Doo Hwan." Uchiha Zaidou said, patting the shoulder of a young team member next to him.

"This is all thanks to what you told us, Captain." Sakurai Hideaki said after a long sigh of relief, "To be honest, I was shocked when I saw that child being embarrassed."

These civilian ninjas have been working in the security department for some time, so they would naturally see Naruto occasionally while patrolling the streets on weekdays.

At the beginning, these people who did not know Naruto's true identity were also influenced by the rumors and regarded Naruto as a demon fox who brought disaster. They even or their families were involved in bullying Naruto.

But even if these Uchiha captains of the Security Department didn't know that Naruto was the son of the Fourth Hokage, they knew what a Jinchūriki was.

If you provoke a Jinchūriki, even if he loses control and kills someone, you will at most be punished, but the person who is killed is really dead.

They already got along well with the civilian members, so they would naturally remind their subordinates. With their repeated reminders, the civilian ninjas who joined the Security Department and their families also understood that Naruto was someone who must not be provoked. Although they would not change their attitude towards Naruto immediately, at least they would not take the initiative to speak ill of Naruto.

"By the way, if you meet that child while patrolling in the future, you can take appropriate care of him, but don't be too obvious, understand?" Uchiha Zaidou reminded.

Before seeing Kakashi and Naruto together, the Security Department basically maintained an attitude of not provoking or ignoring Naruto. After all, the identities of both parties were quite sensitive. But now Kakashi seems to have established contact with Naruto, and Kakashi seems to have a close relationship with the head of his family, so Uchiha Zaito said this.

"Captain, why?" someone in the patrol team asked curiously.

"Don't ask so many whys. I will definitely tell you what I can tell you." Uchiha Zaito said.

"I see. It's a secret, right? It won't do us any good if we know it." The man who asked the question was not annoyed at being confronted. He just smiled and scratched his head.

After working together for a period of time, these civilian ninjas who joined the guard team also discovered that the members of the Uchiha clan, who had been almost demonized in the rumors in the village, were actually not that difficult to get along with. Apart from being a little arrogant and always talking about the glory of the Uchiha clan, there was actually nothing wrong with them.

When you encounter problems at work, they may scold you a few times but they will still patiently help you solve them. When you ask them for advice while practicing ninjutsu, they will also say something like "as expected, people without Uchiha blood just don't have talent" while sharing some experiences that you can never learn in ninja school.

"That's all I need to know." Uchiha Zaidou rolled his eyes at the man, then said to everyone, "Don't waste time. Finish your patrol quickly. I'll treat everyone to a drink after get off work."

"Long live the captain!" As soon as Uchiha Zaito finished speaking, the cheers of the team members behind him rose one after another.

This is also an important reason. Uchiha ninjas are really generous to their own people.

On the other hand, after experiencing such an incident, Kakashi and Naruto no longer had the mood to go shopping.

"Um, Kakashi-nii." Naruto beside Kakashi lowered his head and whispered, "I'm sorry."

"Why apologize? It's not your fault." Kakashi said.

"But if it weren't for me, Kakashi-nii wouldn't have encountered such a thing," said Naruto.

Hearing this, Kakashi stopped, squatted down, looked at Naruto and said, "Naruto, listen, anyone can be wrong in this matter, but you are the only one who is truly innocent, so you don't need to apologize." Naruto's eyes reddened after hearing what Kakashi said. Since he could remember, except for the third generation grandfather who occasionally came to see him, Kakashi was the first person who completely believed in him.

"If something like this happens again in the future, remember to find the uncles in the security department. They will help you get justice." Kakashi said.

"Security Department? Are they those ninja uncles from before?" Naruto asked curiously.

"That's right." Kakashi nodded.

"Will they really help me?" Although Kakashi said so, Naruto still had doubts.

"Yes, they will definitely help you." Kakashi said, with a special glint in his eyes, "Let's go, let's eat ramen."

As soon as he heard about his favorite ramen, Naruto almost instantly perked up, forgetting all the unpleasantness just now, and followed Kakashi's pace with a big laugh.

……

In the Hokage's office, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but sigh heavily after listening to the Anbu ninja's report on what had just happened on the commercial street.

Just then, the door of the Hokage's office was suddenly pushed open, and Utane Koharu and Mitomon En walked in angrily.

Seeing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hand to signal the Anbu ninja who came to report to retreat.

After the Anbu ninja left, Mitomon En couldn't wait to ask, "Huruzen, what on earth are you thinking? How can you let anyone get close to the Jinchūriki so easily?"

"You worry too much. Kakashi is Minato's disciple. He is qualified to take care of his teacher's son." Sarutobi Hiruzen said patiently.

"Huruzen, when it comes to the Jinchūriki, you can't be too merciful." Utane Koharu said.

"So what? What are you going to do? Like Danzo suggested before, lock Naruto up and brainwash him into a weapon of war?" Sarutobi Hiruzen said angrily, "Don't forget, Naruto is not only the Jinchuriki, he is also Minato's son! The son of the Fourth Hokage! Minato has already given his life for the village!"

"Huruzen, that's not what we meant." Mitomon En said, "It's just that Kakashi has the Sharingan after all. Don't forget what happened six years ago!"

"Shut up! There is no need to discuss this matter anymore!" said Sarutobi Hiruzen.

"Huruzen, Danzo is right, you are too indecisive." Seeing that Sarutobi Hiruzen was determined not to listen to their opinions, Utane Koharu couldn't help but say, "You will regret it one day!"

"I am the Hokage!" Sarutobi Hiruzen shouted, slamming the table.

Seeing this, Mizutomon En and Utane Koharu didn't want to make themselves embarrassed anymore, so they snorted coldly, turned around and left, slamming the door heavily behind them.

After the two advisors left, Sarutobi Hiruzen lit his pipe, took a deep breath, and looked out the window, with a dark light flashing in his eyes.
