Naruto: The Brightest Star

Why, why does everyone hate me? What did I do wrong...

A blond child, looking at the ground with empty eyes, walked forward step by step.

"Son, don't be sad! Don't pay attention to them, your mother has found someone for you! Don't worry! Your Aunt Zhiyu is a very good person and will definitely help you."

Uzumaki Kushina followed Uzumaki Naruto the entire time, talking beside him non-stop.

But Uzumaki Naruto couldn't hear what Kushina Uzumaki said.

There were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road, and before he knew it, Uzumaki Naruto didn't know where he was.

"Hey! Kid over there! Over here!"

A voice suddenly sounded.

Uzumaki Naruto looked up in confusion and saw a girl in a red dress with white stripes standing in front of a stall and waving at him. Next to her stood a man with glasses and a cold look on his face.

Uzumaki Naruto looked around, made sure there was no one else around, then raised his hand and pointed at himself.

"are you talking about me?"

"Yeah! Aren't you with them? Come here quickly~"

Uchiha Xing waved his hand and shouted to Uzumaki Naruto.

It was at this time that Uzumaki Mingren noticed that there were children of all ages in front of the stall, and those children were holding things in their hands.

"Well, I'm not with them."

Uzumaki Naruto's voice became quieter and quieter.

Uchiha Xing sighed slightly, and then showed an expression that said, "Another child with such a strong sense of self-esteem."

Uchiha Xing walked over from behind the stall with a booklet in his hand, then walked towards Uzumaki Naruto, half squatted down and asked, "What's your name?"

"Naruto, Naruto..."

Uzumaki Naruto kept stroking the corner of his clothes with his fingers.

"Naruto, huh..."

Uchiha Xing quickly flipped through the booklet in his hand and found Uzumaki Naruto's name on the last page.

"Here, look at the name on it."

"Hey? Why is my name on it?"

Listening to Uchiha Xing's words, Uzumaki Naruto's face showed a hint of uneasiness, as well as a hint of expectation.

"This is the list given by the Hokage. It contains the names of children who need financial support. We will provide three meals a day and clothes to the children listed above."

"Every once in a while, the list will be updated, and your name is on the updated list."

Speaking of this list, Uchiha Xing took a lot of effort to add Uzumaki Naruto's name without arousing everyone's suspicion.

"However, if you don't need it, you don't have to come. But I still suggest you come and collect it every day."

Uchiha Xing persuaded Uzumaki Naruto gently.

Uzumaki Naruto looked into Uchiha Xing's gentle and clear eyes, and for some reason he suddenly felt aggrieved.

Uzumaki Naruto didn't know how to describe that feeling. It seemed that all the emotions that had been suppressed for a period of time were released at once.

"Wow!"

Uzumaki Naruto suddenly started crying.

"No, don't cry! It's not that I didn't bully you!"

Uchiha Xing said anxiously, his eyes subconsciously looking in the direction of Uzumaki Kushina.

Sister Kushina, I really didn't bully him! Really!

Uzumaki Kushina knew why Uzumaki Naruto was crying.

Uzumaki Kushina squatted down and raised her hand to rub Uzumaki Naruto's head in the air.

"It's okay, it's okay. From now on, my little Naruto will have someone to take care of him. If you have any problems in the future, you should look for Aunt Yuori, okay?"

As Uzumaki Kushina spoke, tears began to flow down her face and her body gradually became transparent.

"Really? I promised Minato that I wouldn't cry anymore."

Uzumaki Kushina wiped the tears from her face.

"But I'm still worried! I'm still worried!"

"Naruto, Mom is worried about you..."

Uzumaki Kushina hugged Uzumaki Naruto and cried.

Uchiha Xing looked at the two crying people and sighed silently.

Uchiha Xing raised his hand and rubbed Uzumaki Naruto's head, then said: "Don't cry, everything will be fine. If you have any problems in the future, you can always come to me. I will be in Konoha from the 14th to the 16th of every month."

"Ah."

Uzumaki Naruto nodded while sobbing.

Uzumaki Kushina looked at Uzumaki Naruto, and in her heart she couldn't let go of her son.

The body that was originally somewhat transparent became solid again.

"Okay, okay, don't cry anymore."

Uchiha Xing took out a handkerchief and wiped the tears from Uzumaki Naruto's face.

Seeing that Uzumaki Naruto stopped crying, Uchiha Xing took Uzumaki Naruto's hand and walked towards the stall. Then he gave Uzumaki Naruto three meals for the day and a set of winter clothes.

After giving it to him, Uchiha Xing put a mark on the booklet.

"Okay, remember to come over to get the food at this time tomorrow~"

Uchiha Xing followed Uzumaki Naruto and then continued to distribute things to the other children.

"I understand, pretty sister."

Uzumaki Naruto looked at Uchiha Xing with sparkling eyes, then stood aside and looked at Uchiha Xing while holding him.

After a long time, Uchiha Xing distributed everything.

"Yeah! Very good! No children are absent today."

Uchiha Xing handed the booklet to Ginta.

"indeed."

Ginta took the booklet and glanced at Uzumaki Naruto who was squatting beside him, and subconsciously frowned.

"What's wrong, Ginta?"

Uchiha Xing looked at Ginta with a frown on his face and couldn't help but ask.

"Is that child still here?"

There was a hint of disgust in Gintama's eyes.

Uchiha Xing looked in the direction Ginta was looking and saw Uzumaki Naruto squatting on the side with his little face red from the cold.

"Why haven't you gone home yet? Aren't you afraid of catching a cold?"

Uchiha Xing raised his hand and touched Uzumaki Naruto's forehead. After making sure that the other party did not have a fever, he took off the scarf from his neck and put it around Uzumaki Naruto's neck.

"Go home quickly, it's cold here."

Uchiha Star said to Uzumaki Naruto.

"Beautiful sister, will you come tomorrow?"

Uzumaki Naruto blinked and looked at Uchiha Xing with a glimmer of hope.

"Hmph~ Pretty sister~ I don't know who you got this mouth from, you can talk so well."

Uzumaki Kushina pouted and muttered softly.

"Tomorrow, I'll still be here."

Uchiha Xing raised his hand and patted Uzumaki Naruto on the head.

Then he left here with Ginta.

He had to leave. Uchiha Xing clearly felt the increase in the number of Anbu around him and the unknown gaze falling on him.

Slip away, slip away~

Uzumaki Naruto held the bag tightly in his hand with a smile on his face.

So happy~

"Why are you so silly? It's time to go back, Naruto."

Uzumaki Kushina raised her hand and poked Uzumaki Naruto's face.

……

Uchiha Xing returned to the office and began to deal with the company's affairs. Everything was the same as usual.

Even when distributing supplies the next day, Uchiha Xing treated everyone equally as usual, without giving special attention to any particular child.

In the evening, Uchiha Star left the Hidden Leaf Village.

Really, why are you still following me?

Uchiha Xing raised his hand and rubbed his forehead with a headache.

Let me guess which side they are from. There are definitely some people from the Anbu, but it seems that there are also a few from the Root.

According to the little monkey's personality, he will most likely not allow anyone to monitor me after he makes sure that I'm okay.

But that guy Danzo is not necessarily the case.

However, after knowing that I am from the Rain Country, unless he is stupid, he will definitely not come to kill me at this time.

It seems that they will have to keep an eye on me for a while.

Uchiha Xing walked towards the Rain Country while making an estimate in his mind.

It was not until they were almost at the border of the Land of Fire that the Anbu following Uchiha Star left.

But the people from the Root are still following Uchiha Xing.

Uchiha Xing's eyes twitched slightly.

That bastard doesn't really want to kill me!

Oh, he almost forgot. In his impression, Salamander Hanzo is the real leader of the Rain Country, and he is just a puppet responsible for making money. It doesn't matter whether he lives or dies.

Uchiha Xing couldn't help but raise his hands and rub his face.

What bad luck.

Just as Uchiha Xing was thinking about it, a black smoke-like thing rushed towards the "unsuspecting" Uchiha Xing.

ended.

The masked man in the dark looked at the person surrounded by the swarm of insects and sneered.

"Hi~his~"

"Why are there so many bugs?"

"Hi~his~"

It sounded like some kind of pressure sprinkler.

Soon all the insects surrounding Uchiha Star died.

There were already several bottles of used insecticide at Uchiha Xing's feet.

My...ringworm!!!!

Damn it!!! I must kill her! Kill her!

The masked man clenched his fists tightly, and countless bugs crawled out of his body.

"Eh!!! This is so disgusting! There are so many bugs coming out of all the pores on my body!"

A voice suddenly sounded in the man's ears.

Before the man could react, a cold light flashed and he felt a chill on his neck. Then he felt the scene around him turning upside down, and after turning several circles, it stopped.

"Well~ It seems that he only let you come here, and I don't mean much to him. But it's good this way."

Uchiha Xing formed seals with his hands and decisively chose to destroy the body.

"Well, let's go back quickly. But since we're already here, why don't we go for a walk around the Land of Grass?"

Uchiha Xing hesitated for a moment, then took out the lucky coin.

The coin spun in the air, and when it finally landed in the palm of your hand, the four-leaf clover was facing upwards.

"Luck!"

"Let's go! Let's go for a walk. My little assistant, here I come."

Uchiha Xing hummed a little tune and walked towards the Land of Grass.

……

There is not a cloud in the sky tonight. The stars are twinkling in the sky, and a bright moon is illuminating the road ahead.

Uchiha Xing was alone, sitting on a stone, looking up at the starry sky.

No?! No?! I searched the entire Kusagakure Village and found no one from the Uzumaki clan! Not to mention a human figure, not even a red-haired person.

"That's not right! Obviously I was lucky this time!"
