Naruto: If I let you be Naruto, you will become yellow-haired?

Chapter 128 Apology
After packing up their belongings for the trip to the Fire City, Tsunade, Naruto and the other two left the Senju Mansion.

On the bustling central street of Konoha, heading towards the main gate of the Hidden Leaf Village.

The core areas of Konoha Village are covered by the village's protective barrier, and the Anbu can detect the invader's location and approximate chakra strength level.

Therefore, the closer to the center of the village, the safer it is. This is one of the reasons why the Uchiha clan was very resistant to being forced to move to the edge of the village.

Tsunade's delicate face looked meaningfully at her two disciples, Shizune and Naruto.

"Shizune, I didn't expect you to even spare Naruto!"

As she spoke, she twitched her red lips and made a clicking sound, which was full of sarcasm.

Shizune, who had been following Tsunade with her head down like a little secretary, suddenly blushed on her pure and quiet face. She quickly glanced at Naruto and retorted quickly.

"Tsunade-sama, what are you talking about!"

"Brother Naruto is still so young! Please don't say such weird things in front of Naruto!"

"Hahaha!" Tsunade raised her snow-white chin, let out a smug and hearty laugh, and rubbed Naruto's head.

"I never saw you before, but you're still such a lecherous brat!"

"You can't hang out with other female classmates like you do with Shizune at Ninja School!"

Naruto's mouth twitched as he watched Tsunade teasing him.

You act like a bitch in front of me, not much better than Shizune!

Before Naruto could say anything, Shizune saw this and quickly interrupted and changed the subject, "Tsunade-sama, have you gone to the Hokage-sama to get the order to leave the village?"

Konoha ninjas need to obtain a warrant approved by the Hokage himself before leaving the village to carry out missions, otherwise leaving the village without permission will be regarded as desertion.

Tsunade's face was stunned for a moment, then she raised her head and waved her hand proudly.

"I don't need it! Could it be that without the old man's warrant, the village guards won't allow me, Tsunade, to leave the village?"

Naruto secretly complained that he couldn't escape from the other world.

Rules always restrict those below them. A high-ranking Konoha official like Tsunade doesn't have to follow the rules at all.

Seeing this, Jingyin put her hands on her hips and said,
"Tsunade-sama!"

"This is Naruto's first time going out on a mission. We have to set a good example for him! We must ask the Hokage for approval!" Then he prepared to drag Tsunade to the Hokage Building with dissatisfaction.

At this time, a loud argument was heard not far away on the street.

A fat man dressed as a boss who looked quite familiar to Naruto was being pulled by a young woman with shabby clothes and a sallow complexion. She looked miserable and pleading.

I could only vaguely hear what the noise was, something like unpaid wages or something like that.

Naruto raised a brow.

Although Konoha Village is considered a prosperous and wealthy town in the ninja world, most of the villagers can only barely get enough food and clothing.

Although ninja missions are risky and difficult, the wages are considerable.

However, in Boruto: Incombustible, Sasuke and Sakura, who saved the ninja world, are worried about the mortgage of Konoha Village...

Villages in the Land of Rain and the Land of Waves, for example, were plagued by pirates and bandits, the incessant wars between major powers, and even exploitation and taxation by wealthy nobles. It was truly a situation where the road was covered in bones and no roosters crowed for a hundred miles.

Tsunade and Shizune, who were both very strong and had sharp hearing, naturally noticed the two people entangled not far away.

Tsunade frowned slightly but didn't react much.

On the other hand, Jingyin's innocent face showed a hint of pity, and she would secretly glance over from time to time when passing by.

Naruto secretly speculated about Tsunade's indifferent reaction.
Tsunade had experienced many tragic scenes in the Rain Country, a place with four wars, during the Second and Third Wars in the early years of the Ninja World. In addition, the death of her relatives later weakened her relationship with them.

At this time, the fat man dressed as a boss saw Naruto and his group,
Suddenly, the shrewd little boy's dark eyes lit up, and he quickly broke away from the shabby-dressed woman who was collecting debts next to him.

He ran towards Naruto, panting.

After wiping the sweat from his forehead with the protruding flesh mound, the middle-aged fat boss put on a flattering smile on his fleshy face.

He respectfully handed over a thick stack of banknotes.
"Young Master! Please show some mercy and ask those Uchiha from the police department to spare me next time!"

"Otherwise, my small business won't be able to survive in the village!"

Hearing the other party's inexplicable words, Naruto raised his eyebrows and suddenly realized.

This person was the shop owner who wanted to drive him away when he first met Ino.

Did the Ministry of Police let him off the hook? Was he being targeted by the Ministry of Police, an urban management agency?

Naruto's heart moved. This must be the guy that Uchiha Tekka had helped to deal with after he had mentioned him to him before!

For that brat Naruto? Tsunade, who was standing by, saw the thick stack of colorful banknotes and estimated that there were nearly a million taels of banknotes!
His brown eyes suddenly flashed with a fiery light and a smile appeared on his face. He just didn't have money to go to the casino when he went to the Fire Nation Metropolis this time!
Just about to take it.

Jingyin quickly pulled her back, staring at the fat boss and asked cautiously,
"What is your relationship with that woman? And why did you give Naruto this money?"

Naruto glanced at Shizune and thought to himself that Shizune was much more reliable than Tsunade, that woman who was obsessed with money.

Hearing this, the shop owner's shrewd eyes moved, and then his fat face full of flesh fell, and he sighed melancholy and said,

"Well, it's not that I had a misunderstanding with this young master before, and because of it, I offended those people from the village police department who have a good relationship with you, little brother."

"We're constantly being fined by the police. My small business is about to go under..."

The fat shop owner saw that Tsunade was staring at the bills most eagerly and seemed the easiest to persuade, so he hurriedly explained to Tsunade.

"That woman was a former employee of my shop, so naturally I can't pay her salary... I hope you gentlemen will forgive my previous offense for the sake of this compensation!"

"Don't let the police come to my shop anymore..."

Although the other party spoke tactfully, Tsunade was one of the three legendary ninjas who had previously dominated the ninja world. Naturally, she could see that the other party's words were unclear and that he was hiding something.

I'm afraid it's not just a simple misunderstanding with that brat Naruto...

After all, Naruto was a pretty easygoing kid, and considering that Sarutobi Hiruzen had recalled her because of a conflict between the Jinchūriki and the village...

Tsunade's delicate face changed, and her fiery eyes, which were originally looking at the thick stack of silver in the fat boss's hand, suddenly turned cold.
