Chapter 32 Ryosuke Wants Naruto to Choose

Looking at Naruto, whose eyes were burning like a raging fire in his heart, Ryosuke chuckled and shook his head.

In his perception, Sarutobi Hiruzen had left the classroom after he said that.

Perhaps in his heart, he thought that Naruto would not change for the time being, but he might have become interested in himself, the little son-in-law of the Hyuga clan who was originally unknown.

Although he didn't know what Sarutobi Hiruzen's original idea was, Ryosuke felt that the idea he gave him should be a good one.

Regardless of the plot he saw in his previous life or the information he collected in this life, he could clearly tell that Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to support Naruto to become Hokage.

Although he didn't know what kind of psychology this was, perhaps it was guilt for the fourth generation, or for the stability of his own faction, but this was an unchanging fact.

Ryosuke believed that although the third generation didn't know too much about what he had done all along, he should still know more or less.

He has been pushing Naruto, who most people think is a war machine, towards the third generation, and today he gave him such an idea. He should be able to see the "goodwill" of the Hyuga clan.

This is what Ryosuke wants Sarutobi Hiruzen to think of as a goodwill.

"Naruto! What are you doing? Listen to the class carefully!"

After Sarutobi Hiruzen left, the classroom returned to its usual state.

And Iruka on the podium also abruptly realized that he seemed to have been ignoring Naruto today.

When he looked over, he found that the boy had stood up at some point, smiling, and seemed to be talking to Ryosuke at his desk.

"Sorry, teacher Iruka."

Naruto seemed to have just remembered that he was in class. After smiling apologetically, he sat back down and listened to the class seriously.

He was more focused and motivated than before.

And Ryosuke next to him kept a smile on his face and looked at the scene calmly.

Except for Ryosuke who was sitting at the same table with Naruto, no one in the class noticed anything unusual.

No one noticed that Naruto in the last row had been ignored for most of the day.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, who is known as the Ninjutsu Doctor, is really amazing.

Because the Hyuga clan is a physical family, this is the first time that Ryosuke has seen such a powerful illusion in all these years. Using illusion, Sarutobi Hiruzen blocked almost everyone in the classroom from seeing Naruto, and after the illusion ended, he did not feel any discomfort.

Is this the strength of the shadow of a village?

Ryosuke's vigilance against other ninjas increased again, and he had a deeper affirmation of what he had just done.

It was a decision that Ryosuke and Hyuga Hiashi had discussed to show goodwill to Sarutobi's Hokage faction.

The Hyuga clan's current status in the village is temporarily awkward.

They are in the same position as the Uchiha clan, which is almost isolated by the entire village, and they are competing for the position of the largest clan in Konoha.

But in some cases, they also check and balance each other to prevent one family from dominating.

If Ryosuke thinks positively about what happened to Hyuga Hiashi in the original timeline, it means that Sarutobi Hiruzen is old and does not have the courage to face the war when he was young.

He is just an old man who hopes to keep the peace of the village and spend his old age in peace.

But if he thinks negatively, it may be that Sarutobi Hiruzen intends to take the opportunity to knock and test the Hyuga clan to see if they will give in, or just take his orders and go against his will like the Uchiha clan.

After all, Ryosuke has not yet seen through people's hearts. Although the incident of Hyuga Hiashi did not happen in this timeline, there are some things he has to guard against.

He is about to turn six years old, and the progress bar in his mind is about to be full, and he begins to transform again.

And Sasuke, who is in the same class with him, is also about to turn six years old.

This means that the Uchiha clan is going to be gone, and their enemies in Hyuga are going to be gone.

At that time, the Hyuga clan will be the largest clan in the village, and this title is well deserved.

But this will also make their clan a new thorn in the eyes of others.

In the timeline without the sacrifice of Hyuga Hizashi, Ryosuke cannot guarantee whether the Hyuga clan will spend the rest of the days in peace and tranquility as before.

Although they, the Hyuga clan, can become the best reconnaissance ninjas on the battlefield because of their Byakugan, will not be easily swept away by the village, and will not make the village as wary as the Uchiha clan.

But after all, it is still a large clan, and they have always maintained independent thinking. If they do not integrate into the village, they will definitely be excluded and isolated.

Showing goodwill to the Hokage faction is a good way for the Hyuga clan to maintain a stable path in the future.

It was already afternoon, and after talking to Naruto, they did not actually have a long class and ended today's class.

Unlike the usual dullness, Naruto seemed very excited after school today. He even planned to go to the trial field once to compete with others and vent his inner excitement.

Even if he was beaten badly, it didn't matter. Anyway, the powerful self-healing ability brought by the fox in his body would solve his injuries very well.

"You seem very excited about what I said to you this afternoon?"

Seeing Naruto was about to pack up the table and leave, Ryosuke whispered something when he passed by.

Naruto, who was originally in a hurry to leave, stopped.

"Do you remember what I said to you?" He smiled and looked at Naruto who turned back and was a little confused. "The point is, how do you think of yourself in your heart, remember?"

Naruto's eyes were even more confused. He didn't understand what Ryosuke meant.

In the afternoon, he did hear such a sentence.

"The goal of becoming Hokage... is it really your own choice?"

But then, Ryosuke's other words made Naruto's excited expression on his face freeze.

"When I said that to you in the afternoon, I heard that there were more than just you. I said this, do you understand what I mean?" Ryosuke continued to speak, and the white eyes on his face had quietly opened without knowing when.

After school, there were not many students in the classroom. Except for Hinata who was still waiting for him, no one paid attention to them.

The ninjas who used to monitor Naruto were gone, and Sarutobi Hiruzen had just left.

This moment might be the freest time for Naruto in his first half of his life.

"You..."

Naruto was a little at a loss. He wanted to ask something, but he couldn't.

Under the gaze of Ryosuke's eyes, his mouth was tightly closed, and he couldn't ask a single word.

"Even if you have that big fox in your belly, the village has ways to control him. You should remember what I said, right?" Ryosuke continued to speak, and there was no smile on his face, and he returned to his initial calmness.

The invisible momentum rose from him, making Naruto dare not look directly at him.

"After a month of contact, I think you are pretty good. Hide yourself well and find the path you really want to take, Naruto."

Taking a step forward quietly, Ryosuke leaned over and leaned close to his ear, and whispered, "I hope you can always stay calm and rational. If you are found out, please forget what I just said. I don't want others to find me."

The moment the words fell, the whiteness in his pupils seemed to light up a little, but it quickly dimmed.

"I will take a leave recently. I hope you can be better when I see you next time."

Just like the day not long ago, Ryosuke left Naruto's heart with a great shock, and silently took Hinata out of the classroom, leaving him alone in a daze.

On the way home, Ryosuke was in a very happy mood, inexplicably happy.

This kind of emotion rarely reacts to other things except practice.

Why do you say this?

From that day on, although Ryosuke didn't know what he saw specifically, his original idea of ​​not wanting to have too much contact with these dangerous people seemed to have changed.

His heart told him to try to contact them.

As for why he told Naruto this.

It can only be said that compared to forcing Naruto to find a path like Sarutobi Hiruzen, Ryosuke hoped that Naruto could find a path on his own.

At least, he didn't want Naruto to be the silly boy who kept shouting "I want to be Hokage" from beginning to end.

He wanted to see... different content.
