One day later.
Naruto’s whole body has been cleaned a lot. Obviously, it has been groomed.
At the moment, he is lying on a bed…
In the misty room, he heard two people talking in the room.
“This is the child you brought back?” This person’s tone sounded harsh, and he seemed dissatisfied with Naruto’s arrival.
“Yes, Lord-Kazekage, I saw him fainting in the desert, so I brought him back.”
That’s right!
Li Yaoxiang’s destination for Naruto this time is Land-of-Wind’s Suna Village! Of course, he who is familiar with Hokage plots is impossible to forget major events like the Konoha Crush Plan!
Not forgetting the various disputes between Suna Village and Konoha Village!
Li Yaoxiang led Naruto to take the initiative to participate in this matter because he knew that as long as Hinata and Sasuke remained in Konoha, sooner or later, Naruto would go back.
That being the case. Of course, Li Yaoxiang will not miss this opportunity. A series of darkening plans have been laid out… And this time, he will make Naruto feel that the darkness is not just in Konoha!
Even the outside world is equally dark!
He can no longer escape from reality!
Drive him to face reality!
But having said that, Li Yaoxiang didn’t expect an acquaintance to rescue Naruto to Suna Village.
In the room is the Kazekage Rasa and Gaara’s mentor, Baki.
[*TL note: Rasa (Rasa) was the Fourth Kazekage (Yondaime Kazekage, literally meaning: Fourth Wind Shadow) of Sunagakure. Renowned for his ability to use Gold Dust, Rasa’s reign as Kazekage was marked by his frequent quelling of rampages by the One-Tailed Shukaku, which he had sealed into his youngest son, Gaara.]
But Baki and Gaara and the others are exactly one of the links used by Li Yaoxiang to darken Naruto.
There is nothing to say anymore. The next thing to do is to continue to observe their situation. Look at the development of things, whether it is exactly the same as he expected!
Just as expected, when Baki answered Kazekage Rasa’s question, Rasa immediately expressed dissatisfaction: “Do you think the village has that much money? In this period, you have to raise one more idler?”
“Lord-Kazekage, please rest assured that this person will be left to me and will not harm the interests of the village,” Baki explained quickly.
“Hmph! Isn’t your wealth given to you by the village?” Rasa asked.
“But…”
Rasa waved his hand and interrupted: “No need to say more. Not to mention that there is a problem with this child’s identity. The village will not support the idlers. If you want to keep him, it is not impossible. Let him be a companion for Gaara. Whether he can survive or not depends on his luck.”
“Lord-Kazekage, Lord-Kazekage…”
Rasa left the room directly without giving Baki any chance to refuse.
Rasa’s intentions are also obvious. Gaara in this period of time is very unstable. It can be said that as long as the child in front of him is left beside Gaara, then there is no difference between this child and death.
Dead ends all one’s troubles.
‘No need to waste the village’s food.’
‘If he doesn’t die….’
‘That’s impossible.’
Rasa never thought about this probability.
Baki, who is a tutor of Gaara and for the others, certainly understands this truth. Seeing Lord-Kazekage’s resolute attitude, Baki’s complexion became very complicated. He kindly saved and brought the child back. But he didn’t expect this result.
With a complex face looking towards Naruto lying on the bed… Baki said softly, “Don’t pretend.. you are already awake, right?”
Yes.
As soon as Naruto’s consciousness regained, his eyelids blinked inadvertently, and Baki had discovered this, And of course, Rasa too.
Rasa’s relentless conversation was specifically told to Naruto.
When Naruto learned that his ‘pretending to sleep’ had been realized by others, he opened his eyes awkwardly. He slowly sat up, not knowing what to say.
Baki continued: “It’s been a long time since you’ve eaten, right? The food has been prepared, and please finish it before you talk.”
Baki pointed to a plate of food beside the bed.
Not too much. Just a few pieces of bread. A bowl of hot soup. And a little meat.
Naruto instantly rejoiced!
Immediately crawled to the head of the bed and wolfed down one’s food.
Ate too fast and choked.
The ‘gu lu, gu lu’ sound of drinking soup.
After being imprisoned for so long, even for such bland food, for Naruto, it is the most delicious thing on earth. It has been a long time since he had eaten such a delicious meal.
He instantly forgets everything. In his mind, in the field of view, this plate of food is the only thing in front of him.
It didn’t take long.
Naruto soon ate up the food in front of him and finally relaxed.
After recovering, he turned his attention to Baki this time and scratched his head. “Haha, I’m sorry, I haven’t eaten for too long, so…”
Baki did not take this matter seriously. He waved his hand and returned to the topic: “It’s okay, these foods were originally prepared for you. Did you hear the conversation just now? This is Suna Village, and we will not accept idlers. If you’re alright, then you can leave.”
After Naruto heard this, he suddenly climbed up nervously: “No, no, no, I don’t have anywhere to go. You just take me in. I am not an idler. I am also a ninja, and I can do missions to feed myself!”
For Naruto to say that he is a ninja, Baki was not surprised.
After all, within the human body, with or without Chakra, he can easily sense it.
As soon as he came back to rescue Naruto, he knew that Naruto, a child, was not an ordinary person.
“What’s your name? Why is there such a difficult situation in the desert where you fainted?” Baki said.
Naruto was a little nervous but still very obedient. He told him what Li Yaoxiang taught him: “My name is Naruto. Someone wanted to kill me, so I fled to the desert, and I am now homeless. Can you take me in?”
Baki was slightly dissatisfied with Naruto’s answer.
Originally he wanted to ask more carefully. When the words came to his mouth, he squeezed back into his stomach. The opportunity to leave has already been given to him, and it is no wonder that the child in front of him does not understand how to cherish it.
Anyway, the current Naruto, in Baki’s eyes, looks like a dead person. Baki doesn’t plan to get to the bottom of it anymore.
‘It is right to follow the instructions of Lord-Kazekage directly.’
As for the child in front of him, whether he can survive or not depends on his fortune.
“The clothes are there. Put them on. Just follow me, and I will take you to meet your future partners.” Baki pointed to the Sand Ninja outfit aside.
Naruto turned to look. The current Naruto, except for the pants, is naked. He did not say much, and Naruto picked up the clothes and just put them on.
The style of clothing is similar to that of Gaara and Kankuro, the set inside the cloak. The whole thing is dark, nothing special.
[*TL note: Kankurō (Kankurō) is a shinobi of Sunagakure and the second eldest of the Three Sand Siblings. While initially terrified of his younger brother, Kankurō would come to believe in him and his dream to become the Kazekage like their father before them and would become one of Gaara’s most loyal protectors, confidant and bodyguard.]
Of course, Baki will not prepare him with a Suna Ninja headband.
After putting on the clothes, Naruto followed Baki’s pace and left the room…
