Chapter 70 - Chapter 70 Gold? A Flash of Light?

Mei Terumī: "Tenten, did your family keep a photo of the Fourth Hokage back then?"

Tenten: "Uh... I forgot."

Tenten: "Custom-made Ninja tools were pretty rare."

Tenten: "They never sold, and then I just forgot about them."

Ōnoki: "If there really is a photo of the Fourth Hokage... Black-Framed Naruto is no ordinary person, he'll definitely be able to clarify a lot of information with it!"

Orochimaru: "That's right, Black-framed Naruto-kun will definitely suspect the other party's relationship with him at first glance."

Orochimaru: "Not only that, he'll also guess why the Hyuga and Uchiha have been so slow to reveal the reason for the Nine-Tails Rampage."

Orochimaru: "Even... Hahaha, I'll just continue to watch quietly."

After speaking, Orochimaru looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi, who was a bit dazed.

Hiruzen had been in this state for a while now.

Orochimaru chuckled mockingly, thinking, 'If only he had known, why did he do it in the first place?'

Perhaps Hiruzen was indeed regretting something, but not whether he was wrong, but rather that he hadn't eliminated the unstable factors.

He wanted to control both the overt and covert powers.

Senju Tobirama: I'm already looking forward to Black-Framed Naruto's inner thoughts.

["You... want a photo of the Fourth Hokage?"]

[Tenten's delicate brows furrowed slightly.]

[This matter could be big or small.]

Fourth Raikage: "Yo~!"

Fourth Raikage: "Didn't he die a hero?"

Fourth Raikage: "Could it be that even photos of the yellow flash are forbidden from being circulated?"

Kurotsuchi: "Then Konoha is truly rotten to the core."

Mabui: "It's quite obvious. If circulation wasn't forbidden, or even memories sealed, Uzumaki Naruto's identity would have been clear long ago."

Mabui: "I think it's not that no one spoke up for Uzumaki Naruto, or even recognized him as the child of Konoha's Fourth Hokage, it's just that... if they spoke up, their lives would be gone."

Danzo Shimura: "Indeed, Hiruzen loves doing these kinds of things the most!"

Danzo Shimura: "Right? Koharu, Homura?"

Utatane Koharu: "That's right."

Homura Mitokado: "Perhaps."

["What? You don't have any?" Little Naruto's eyes flashed with disappointment.]

["We do!" Tenten immediately replied.]

["It's just... this isn't easy to take out."]

[Just as Tenten was hesitating.]

[A guest suddenly arrived at the door.]

["Coming~! "]

[She called out softly, then opened the box. "You can look if you want, but you'll have to order one!"]

[With that, Tenten immediately scurried to the front desk.]

[The little ones frowned slightly.]

[Just to look at a photo...]

[But it was indeed very strange.]

["I've seen photos of the First Hokage."]

["I've seen photos of the Second Hokage."]

["My family really only has no photos of the Fourth Hokage, why?"]

["Is it because of the Nine... the previous incident?"]

[The little ones chatted briefly.]

[Little Naruto stepped forward to examine the three-pronged kunai.]

[What was different from the Second Hokage's kunai was not just its appearance.]

[There was also the permanent Chakra Ninjutsu formula.]

[One was a pattern, the other was in text form.]

[This three-pronged kunai suited little Naruto's aesthetic. If he could choose, he'd prefer this one.]

[Of course, that wasn't the main point.]

[Little Naruto narrowed his eyes, lowering his head slightly to get a closer look.]

[Thump--]

[That feeling came again!]

[The Great Fox sealed inside his body seemed to have quite a reaction to this three-pronged kunai left by the Fourth Hokage.]

[Why?]

[Could it be because of a certain Ninjutsu formula on it?]

['But just now, the Second Hokage's kunai... the Great Fox didn't react at all...']

['Could it be because this is the Fourth Hokage's exclusive Ninja tool?']

['That's it!']

['That big sister just now seemed to say, five years ago... the hero who saved the Village five years ago?']

['Could it be... the Fourth Hokage's death is inextricably linked to the Great Fox?']

Senju Tobirama: Look! Look!! It's exactly as I said!!!

Beep--

Because his voice was too excited, he was directly muted.

Uchiha Izuna: Divine person, and it's just as you said, if you didn't say it, Black-Framed Naruto wouldn't have been able to figure it out?

Senju Hashirama: Hahaha~

Senju Hashirama: Actually, everyone has guessed it.

Ino Yamanaka: "Indeed, it's not some secret. Having watched up to now, who would doubt that Black-Framed Naruto couldn't guess it?"

['yellow flash... yellow? Flash? What does that mean?']

['Could it be related to this three-pronged kunai?']

['What's the relationship between the Fourth Hokage and the Second Hokage?']

['Their Ninjutsu formulas feel the same. It seems the Fourth Hokage's is more refined and uses a textual form... But this is also normal. When the Second Hokage died, the Fourth Hokage might not have even been born yet.']

['After so many years, many things can be perfected.']

['And, the information given by the Uchiha earlier mentioned that the Second Hokage was a Ninja specializing in high-mobility combat...']

['Let's make a bold guess, the meaning of the Fourth Hokage's 'flash' also refers to high mobility... No, literally, it seems more like extreme speed.']

['Then what does 'yellow' mean?']

['It can't just be the literal meaning, can it?']

['That shouldn't be possible.']

['I always feel like there's some crucial information I haven't included...']

Minato Namikaze: So smart, he's pretty much figured it out already.

Minato Namikaze: *cough cough*, worthy of being Kushina's child, just as excellent as Kushina~

In the Pure Land World, Kushina opened her mouth, but ultimately did not speak again.

Seeing Uchiha Mikoto secretly smiling nearby.

Kushina said in annoyance: "I... I just don't want to get muted again because of some irrelevant person!"

[Click--]

[Just as little Naruto was deep in thought.]

[Ino suddenly opened the small box.]

[She blinked her big eyes at him.]

["It's rare for you to like something so much."]

["Take it, it's a hundred thousand ryo, we plan to chip in and buy it for you~"]

["Mm-hmm~" After Ino spoke, the little ones also nodded repeatedly.]

[Little Naruto was stunned for a moment.]

["No, it's too expensive." Little Naruto shook his head.]

[One hundred thousand ryo could buy a lot of things.]

[To buy just one slightly favored kunai was too extravagant.]

[However, Ino directly took it out of the box.]

[And placed it directly into little Naruto's hand.]

[Little Naruto was stunned.]

[This... if that little sister with the bun saw this, he'd definitely get an earful.]

["Shhh~"]

["Afraid of wasting our money?"]

["Think this price isn't worth it?"]

["Then let's run now!"]

[As Ino's words fell, everyone was stunned.]

[Ino had originally been joking, but once she said it, the feeling was different.]

[Her eyes lit up.]

['That's right! That guy definitely won't sell this treasure, but if I snatch it and then secretly come back to pay, wouldn't Naruto get this treasure? And it wouldn't even count as stealing~!']

['It's rare for Naruto to like something so much!']

[But Ino looked up and saw that everyone's expressions were a bit off.]

["Run? Where are you going to run to?"]

[Tenten's voice sounded from behind her, and her two small hands rested on Ino's shoulders.]
