Blacksmith From Hokage

Chapter 32 Naruto’s Heart

Konoha January 1, 54.

This day is the New Year’s Eve of Hokage World, which is equivalent to the Chinese New Year’s Eve in the previous life of Kurayoshi.

There was a torrent of people in the alleys of Konoha Street, and various shops and vendors put on lights and colorful flags. I saw colorful flags fluttering, and various slogans and banners were blowing in the wind.

The blue sky, the breeze passed, and the colorful balloons danced in the wind.

People are wearing new clothes and playing in the streets with festive smiles.

Naruto happily walked through the crowd, looking east and west from time to time, playing around with the goods in the nearby stalls, then put it down and headed to the next one.

Kuroyoshi followed behind him unhurriedly, with a smile on his face.

In this festive atmosphere, unless someone has ulterior motives, it is difficult not to be affected.

“Kurayoshi, look at it, this mask is really good!” Naruto stopped in a mask shop, looking upside down with a fox mask in his hand.

Kuroyoshi walked slowly, took a look, and nodded approvingly, “This mask is indeed painted well, very vivid.”

“Yeah, yes, I want this one.” Naruto looked complacent and asked the boss for the price with a mask.

The boss was looking up at the counter when he heard Naruto ask for the price and looked up.

The smiling face stiffened the moment he saw Naruto, and then turned into anger.

He put down the pen, rushed over, snatched the mask from Naruto, and yelled at him: “Who let you touch my mask.”

Naruto was slightly startled.

He looked at the boss, the eyes of the boss, his undisguised disgust and hatred made him clenched his fists.

The boss’ roar attracted the onlookers of passers-by.

Everyone looked at him with the same eyes, even swearing.

“Why did this demon fox kid run out?”

“Lord Third Hokage is also true, even if it is usual, let him run around except at night.”

“Go away, you killed the demon fox of Fourth Generation!”

why……

Naruto lowered his head, not daring to look at the people around him, trembling slightly, his knuckles turned white with clenched fists.

However, even though I didn’t look at it, the eyes of disgust and hatred continued to appear in my mind, and the language of disgust and hatred continued to echo in my ears.

Why do you treat me this way?

What am I doing wrong?

Naruto felt a volcano awakening in his heart, and when the volcano was about to erupt, a palm was placed on his shoulder.

Grievance, unwillingness, and anger disappeared suddenly.

Naruto woke up suddenly.

He followed the hand on his shoulder and looked back, Kurayoshi gently shook his head at him with a calm expression on his face.

“Kurayoshi?” Naruto looked at him puzzled.

“Since you have chosen the path of proving yourself to everyone, don’t complain about the hardships on the road. When you choose this path, you should have expected it a long time ago.”

Hearing that, Naruto was startled, then stretched his brows and returned to smile, “Ah, of course.”

After speaking, he looked back at the villagers and shouted confidently: “You all listen, I don’t know why you treat me this way, but it doesn’t matter. My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I will definitely become Hokage in the future and let you all All agree with me.”

“What are you kidding? I will never agree with you.”

“That’s right, I still want to be a Hokage, you can’t even do a normal ninja!”

“Master Hokage will never let you, the demon fox, be a ninja.”

“Don’t be foolish!”

The villagers scolded one by one, but Naruto didn’t take it seriously.

He made a grimace at the people around him, then slapped his butt and ran away when people’s dissatisfaction broke out, and laughed as he ran.

Kuroyoshi touched his nose. He glanced at the boss and found that his attention was on Naruto who was running away. He suddenly grabbed the fox mask in his hand, then turned and ran.

After that, he threw a banknote and shouted: “This is mask money.”

The boss caught the banknotes and trembled with anger.

He crumpled the bill into a ball, and then threw it at the escaping Kuroyoshi, “You are also an accomplice of the demon fox, I won’t do your business, I don’t need this mask.”

Kuroyoshi didn’t stop, but turned his head to catch the money when the money flew, and smiled kindly at the boss, “Thank you for the mask, the boss is magnificent!”

“I don’t want you to thank you, it’s just thrown away rubbish.” The boss roared loudly.

“Haha…” Kuroyoshi smiled heartily.

This laughter sounded particularly harsh to the boss, his chest rising and falling intensified, and he became even more angry.

After a good Spring Festival, all of a sudden I was upset.

Yamanaka flower shop.

Ino, wearing a purple kimono, saw Kurayoshi running past the store with a loud laugh, his beautiful eyes lit up.

“Mom, I have something to do, so I won’t help you see the store.”

After speaking, without waiting for a response from his mother, he ran out of the counter and chased him out.

…

Kurayoshi found Naruto at a nearby training ground.

Because of the Spring Festival, this training ground near the downtown area was empty, only Naruto was sitting alone on the wooden post for boxing practice.

Kuroyoshi knew very well that although his own words made Naruto behave indifferently to the villagers’ attitudes, this happened to be the way that he cared so much.

Naruto felt very uncomfortable.

“Oh!” Kuroyoshi sighed and came to Naruto. “So I asked you to live only for yourself, don’t care about other people’s opinions!”

“Kurayoshi…” Naruto looked at the scorching sun in the sky with erratic eyes. “It may be easier to live as you suggested, but I am particularly unwilling.”

“Obviously I am not a demon fox, obviously I have not done anything, but I have to endure all kinds of slander and abuse, and I have to accept everyone’s rejection and disgust, even hatred.”

“If I just stay silent, don’t care about their opinions like you said, ignore other people’s attitudes towards me, and live only for myself, then don’t I have to live on the charge of a demon fox for the rest of my life?”

“So I tell you not to care about other people’s thoughts!”

“It’s impossible. As long as I want to prove myself, I won’t care about other people’s ideas.”

Speaking of this, Naruto smiled.

He jumped off the stake and said to Kuroyoshi: “Kurayoshi, thank you. Without your company, I don’t know if I can stick to my ideas.”

“No, even if you don’t have me, you will definitely stick to your own ideas.” Kuroyoshi squatted and passed the fox mask over, “Take it, for the night fireworks display. Now go buy some fireworks.”

Naruto took the mask and asked, “What about you?”

“I have it too.”

Kuroyoshi took out the false mask and shook it in front of Naruto.

“Okay, let’s go buy fireworks. If you put on a mask, it shouldn’t happen like just now.”

“Um!”

The two left from the other direction and headed to another commercial street.

Soon after the two left, Ino, dressed in a purple kimono, rushed over, panting.

She patted her hurried chest, calmed her breath and looked left and right, her beautiful eyes widened.

It’s just that the empty training ground is silent.

The delicate little face showed a disappointed look.
