Chapter 30: Comfort
The child's mind is the most sensitive, and the biggest blow to Naruto is the transformation of his classmates in the ninja school, he is like falling from the clouds to the bottom, even more uncomfortable than when he was despised at the end of the crane before.
The ninja school was originally his last safe haven, and being ridiculed as a crane tail in the ninja school was countless times better than being feared and resented by the villagers of Konoha, because even if the children had a bad attitude, they did not harbor real malice.
And now, the eyes of his classmates are no different from those villagers, and they all regard him as a disaster star and a monster.
This was what made him desperate the most, Naruto didn't know how to change everyone's opinion, so alone, living in Konoha without a partner, it was better to die.
Only when you have gained it can you better understand the pain of loss.
Yesterday, he was still a popular Konoha hero among his classmates, and he could receive flowers from Ino and Sakura's love bento every day, but today he ended up like this, and the psychological gap is too big.
The higher you hold it, the heavier it falls, not only missing the scenery of the past, but also longing to be recognized by everyone again.
Naruto's inner torment was incomparable, confused and desperate, he almost felt suffocated, he tightened his body, his hands on his knees, no one wanted to give him a warm hug, he could only hug himself tightly, trying to find a trace of warmth under the cold night breeze.
His tears could no longer be held back, and they poured out, sliding down his cheeks and wetting the rocks beneath his feet.
……
Naruto was secretly saddened, but he heard the sound of air jets coming from below the Hokage Rock, and hurriedly raised his head buried in his knees, followed the sound, and saw a round golden flying armor flying from below, slowly flying above the Hokage Rock, and slowly landing.
The helmet mask of the golden armor was lifted, revealing President Bredrow's chubby face, a blessed looking face with a look of concern.
"I've found you, Naruto."
As if relieved, the fat president panted and said, "But I've been worried for a long time!" ”
Luo Feng was really anxious, Naruto was beaten by his classmates after he got into trouble, and he was physically and mentally injured and ran away in tears, not knowing where he had gone.
At that time, Luo Feng was busy directing the rescue operation, and he didn't bother to look for him, and when everything was done, he settled the affected villagers and asked around, but no one knew where Naruto was hiding, which made him anxious.
After all, Naruto is one of the protagonists of the plot, and he carries 50% of the main god's alertness, and if something happens to him in a hurry, the pot must be carried by the investigator team who pit him, and the alertness will be increased to more than 70% all of a sudden, and the mission will fail immediately, and it will be a question of whether he can escape from this plot world.
Naruto was the most sensitive and hurt time, and he saw that President Bradero's concern and anxiety were not fake, and he didn't expect that no one in the entire Konoha Village was willing to deal with him, but a foreign fat uncle was so sincere, and he couldn't help but feel a little moved in his heart.
Thinking about it again, President Braderow's past good deeds: the two of them talked and laughed that night, forgave him magnanimously, set up the image of a little hero for saying good things for him, took the responsibility for causing him to cause trouble and shelling Konoha, persuaded everyone to exonerate him, and rescued the destroyed Konoha Village to clean up the aftermath for him......
Now, after a busy day, I am still looking around because I am worried about him.
Pursing his lips, Naruto hurriedly wiped away his tears, lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Fatty, I'm in trouble again." Also, I shouldn't have lost my temper with you and called you a liar......"
Luo Feng smiled kindly, waited for the Iron Man armor to stop, patted his chest, the armor cracked, and he stepped out.
"It's so high, the wind is so strong, it's dangerous!"
As soon as he left the Iron Man armor, the fat merchant shivered in the night wind, peeked at the height, his legs were a little weak in fright, and he groped his way over tremblingly, and sat down next to Naruto.
His frustration of being timid and scared, but holding on to accompany him, made Naruto's heart move, and he felt that although Uncle Fat was not strong and not cool at all, he was a kind and considerate person.
"It's really painful to be alone, isn't it?"
Sitting firmly, Chairman Braderow looked at Konoha Village, where thousands of lights were lit up below the Hokage Rock, and suddenly said, "I don't know why...... I understand how you feel......"
"Does the fat uncle also feel lonely?"
Naruto was attracted by his words and asked curiously, "Uncle, aren't you a big shot?" A lot of people revolve around you, and they all respect you for coming, how can you ......"
"Sometimes, yes......"
Bredrow smiled at Naruto, there was a hint of bitterness in his smile, and he didn't say much, but Naruto felt that this fat uncle seemed to really understand the pain of loneliness, and could understand the deep cold.
"Now, Naruto, don't blame yourself too much, I said earlier, it's not your responsibility."
Luo Feng patted the yellow-haired young man on the shoulder and said, "It's all my negligence, I opened the public to visit but didn't turn on the safety device on the operating table...... You don't have to worry, the Dragon Chamber of Commerce will be responsible for the damage caused, and the ruined Konoha Village will soon be rebuilt, and everyone will be fine. ”
"But ......"
Naruto said aggrievedly, "Everyone thinks it's my fault, even my classmates at the ninja school don't believe me, and I became a ninja without a companion...... Ninjas, what is the point of existence if they don't have companions to protect? ”
"Alas......"
Luo Feng sighed and made a very embarrassed expression: "This is not easy to do, uncle, I also tried very hard to help you explain, but the villagers refused to listen to me." Naruto, you don't have a bad nature, why do I feel that the villagers seem to be prejudiced against you? ”
"How do I know!"
Naruto pouted, "They said I was a nine-tailed demon fox, that my birth brought disaster to the village, but I obviously didn't do anything!" ”
Speaking of this, he was suddenly stunned and lowered his head: "Now, they must be more convinced that I am a monster...... I used to be blamed for not doing anything, but now that the village is like this, they must think that I am all to blame for this disaster! ”
"Poor boy."
Luo Feng's face was full of sympathy, patted him on the back to soothe, and shook his head helplessly: "This is the evil result of ignorance and superstition, if you don't study well, you won't be reasonable." Uncle, when I used to help the poor, I often encountered ignorant and blind people in some backward remote and poor villages, but I didn't expect that Konoha Village would be like this. ”
The more Naruto thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and he buried his head in silence, and all he could hear was the fierce whistling of the mountains scraping across the Hokage.
"Hey, Naruto, what's your ideal?"
Luo Feng broke the silence and asked suddenly.
"I ......"
Naruto seemed to be lacking in confidence, and did not speak blindly and confidently like before, and hesitated for a while before saying, "I want to be the Hokage, and even want to surpass the Hokage, because the Hokage is a great person in Konoha, and all the villagers respect him and identify with him...... I want to be recognized by everyone, to prove myself, to prove that I am not a scourge in their eyes, and I want to be the most powerful ninja and protect the village......"
"Become the most powerful ninja and protect the ...... of the village"
Luo Fengpin sneered at his words, and suddenly asked, "It's really strange, why in the ninja world, the most powerful ninja can be recognized?" ”
Naruto was puzzled and said, "Huh? What's so strange about this? Grandpa Sandaime is the most powerful ninja in Konoha, and everyone respects him! ”
Luo Feng said with a smile: "Somewhere I've been, the more powerful people are, the more feared by everyone and treated as monsters, people are always afraid that such people will get out of control and cause a big disaster." ”
As he spoke, Luo Feng pointed at Naruto, and continued, "You are hated by the villagers, isn't it because they think you are the incarnation of the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, isn't the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox powerful?" Why do the villagers not agree with you, but reject you and fear you? ”
Naruto was stunned, he wanted to become stronger, thinking that only when he became stronger, could he have the ability to protect the village, have the ability to prove himself, and no longer be the tail of a crane, for this reason, in the original plot, he would steal the sealing scroll under Mizuki's bewitchment and steal the forbidden arts.
President Bradero's question instead asked him, if he is strong, he will be respected and recognized by everyone, so he who is regarded as a nine-tailed demon fox by the villagers, obviously the most powerful person in Konoha, why is he still coldly regarded by the villagers?
