Chapter 10: Should be KilledExercise Program — Chopping trees!It can train physical strength and coordination, collect carving materials, and serve as firewood for outdoor cooking.Truly killing three birds with one stone.Exercising in the forest in the morning, sitting at the shop entrance to make money in the afternoon, Naruto's days were very fulfilling.Just like that, two years passed by in a flash.— Two years later —The forest in the early morning was quiet and serene, the mist had not yet dispersed, and sunlight scattered through the gaps in the leaves onto the ground.Bang!Bang!Bang!On the edge of the forest, in an area with many tree stumps, Naruto swung his axe to chop down a large tree, not fast or slow, maintaining a steady rhythm.An hour later, a big tree crashed down.Seeing this, Naruto changed to another tree and continued chopping.Two hours later, another tree fell.After sitting down to rest for a while, Naruto got up, took a Kunai from the Ninja tool pouch at his waist, and ran into the forest.An hour later, Naruto walked out of the forest panting, carrying a rabbit.Looking up at the sky, the sun was high and bright; it was noon."Hmm, time for lunch..."Arriving at a wooden hut not far away—small and very simple—it contained pots, pans, bowls, firewood, rice, oil, salt, and other dining-related items.A quarter of an hour later, by the river, Naruto set up a frame to roast the rabbit.Adding seasoning while roasting, once it smelled fragrant, he began to eat."Hmm? Did a fish take the bait?"While eating happily, Naruto noticed the fishing rod beside him suddenly move.He had set the fishing rod in the morning without expecting to catch anything, as his fishing skills were never that good.So he was just playing around, not even using bait.Unexpectedly..."In the past, there was Jiang Taigong; today, there is me, Uzumaki Naruto!"Naruto felt a bit excited, stuffed the rabbit leg into his mouth, wiped his greasy hands on the grass, then gripped the fishing rod tightly, gathered his strength, and pulled hard...It didn't move!"So heavy, looks like a big fish."Naruto was even more excited and pulled with all his might.But the more he pulled, the more something felt wrong!"Something seems wrong..."Looking at the shadow gradually floating to the surface, it didn't look like a fish, more like...A corpse!Seeing this, Uzumaki Naruto stopped pulling."I didn't see anything. Right, I didn't see anything."He still wanted to eat lunch; having a corpse here was too unappetizing.Throwing away the fishing rod, Naruto turned around nonchalantly, picked up the grilled meat on the rack, and prepared to leave."Wait!"Two Anbu hiding nearby jumped out. Naruto could pretend not to see them, but the Anbu couldn't.One Anbu ran into the river to retrieve the corpse, while the other stopped Naruto.Really troublesome, Naruto sighed inwardly, looking at the Anbu in front, he said dissatisfiedly: "It has nothing to do with me, why are you stopping me?"The Anbu said: "I know it has nothing to do with you, but you are the first to see..."Naruto interrupted: "No, I didn't see anything. You are the first ones to see it."The Anbu was speechless: "I already saw it."Naruto nodded: "That's right, you were the one who saw it.""..."Damn it! That's not what I meant!"This, is this Shisui of the Body Flicker?!"A cry of alarm came from the riverbank....The Third Hokage rushed over after receiving the Anbu's report and looked at the corpse on the grass.Pale, wrinkled skin, bloated body, empty eye sockets..."Shisui..."The Third Hokage couldn't help but sigh.Another excellent successor to the Will of Fire was gone.'So he really died, but whose hands did his other Mangekyo fall into?'Danzo, who also received the news, arrived quickly. At first glance, he noticed the empty eye sockets of Shisui, his expression tightening slightly.Danzo said in a deep voice: "Who discovered it first?"The Anbu Ninja all cast their gazes toward Uzumaki Naruto.And Naruto, who was preparing to sneak away: "..."Damn it! Why are you all looking at me!Danzo frowned: "It's you!"Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!Naruto glanced at the Third Hokage, feeling safe and secure, then held his head high and said: "That's right, it's me. What do you want?"Did I offend him? Why is his tone so aggressive?Danzo was stunned, then said with an unpleasant face: "Is this the attitude you use to talk to me?"Naruto retorted: "Then what attitude should I have?"Kneel down and call you Grandpa? You grandson!"Arrogant!"Danzo's face was gloomy, cold light in his eyes. Naruto was unhurried and glared back.Just a mere Danzo, you dare to be arrogant with me...No!This scoundrel has Kotoamatsukami now!Thinking of this, Naruto shuddered, hurriedly hid behind the Third Hokage, and kept praying in his heart.Don't look at me, don't look at me. If you want to look, look at the Third Hokage. If you control the Third Hokage, what can't you get?The Third Hokage didn't know Naruto's inner thoughts, thinking he was scared by Danzo, and patted his little head kindly, comforting him with a few words.Afterwards, the Third Hokage said: "Danzo, why are you bickering with a child? You're making a spectacle of yourself."Spectacle? Who dares to laugh? I'll see who dares to laugh!?Danzo looked around, and wherever his gaze fell, the Ninjas lowered their heads, pretending not to see.The ruthlessness of the Darkness of the Ninja World was not just towards outsiders, but also towards his own people; they dared not offend him.Finally, Danzo's gaze fell on Naruto, and he said coldly: "To be so disrespectful to an elder of the Village at such a young age, I can't even imagine what you will be like when you grow up. Are you trying to betray the Village?"This accusation, one can only say, is worthy of the 'King of Scapegoats'.The Third Hokage said: "You are exaggerating, Danzo."Danzo said: "Exaggerating? This is not an exaggeration at all. Hiruzen, think about Orochimaru..."The Third Hokage's face darkened. Orochimaruwas the eternal pain in his heart. Danzo bringing up past events was poking at his pain point.Seeing this, Danzo thought he had moved the Third Hokage, and said with slight excitement: "Hiruzen, hand the Jinchuriki over to me to cultivate..."The Third Hokage sternly interrupted: "Danzo, this is impossible. Don't mention it again!"Hand the Jinchuriki to Danzo... Is he tired of his position as Hokage?"Hiruzen, you will regret this!""Danzo, I am the Hokage!"This conversation had been held countless times; the Third Hokage was so familiar with it that he didn't take it to heart at all.He ordered the Anbu to take Naruto away.Danzo snorted coldly and didn't continue to pester. Instead, he looked at Shisui's corpse and said: "Hand the body over to me. Root will help find the murderer."He wanted to destroy the evidence to prevent the Third Hokage from guessing that he had obtained Kotoamatsukami from the scars on the body.Whoosh!Uchiha Itachi appeared instantly in front of the corpse, suppressing the monstrous anger in his heart, and said: "No need for Elder Danzo's help!"It was this person who not only caused Shisui's death but also wanted to desecrate his corpse.Should be killed!
