Chapter 46: A Thorn

Chapter 46: A Thorn

After comforting the old man for a while, the old man Yamashita seemed to be relieved. He also made all kinds of guarantees that he would repair the Hokage Rock as soon as possible, and there would be no more mistakes.

Initially, the old man Yamashita should take his leave.

But after hesitating for a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "In fact, that child Aoba might have just been impulsive. Although he did something unforgivable, I hope that Hokage-sama can forgive him..." L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

He immediately told Minato about the matter of Aoba learning stone carving from him these days, as well as what Aoba had said to him in an impassioned manner.

Only then did Minato know that the little bastard had such thoughts.

"Not only does he want to become the 5th Hokage, but he also wants to carve his appearance on the Hokage rock personally..." Minato couldn't help but laugh.

Then he began to think about the original intention and reason for Aoba to do all this.

No matter how loud it was, it was a dream for most people to dream of becoming a Hokage.

It was probably because he was worried that he couldn't do it, so he used this method to pay attention and strengthen his faith.

Otherwise, why would he take the initiative to expose everything on such a day?

Then, Minato couldn't help but recall the decision that the little rascal had made before, as well as the words he had said.

"Looks like Konoha really has an extraordinary little kid."

Having already made up his mind, Minato first sent off Old Master Yamashita, then turned around and went to the room next door.

Once again, he saw Mikawa, who had a serious expression on his face, and Aoba, who was eating oranges heartlessly...

"Just now, the chief engineer Yamashita came to plead for you. In addition, I also thought about it carefully. Perhaps the punishment just now was a bit too heavy, so I decided to change the punishment."

As soon as he entered the door, Minato's words made Aoba stunned.

'Did the old man Yamashita plead for me?'

This made him feel a little complicated. In this matter, he could be said to have completely used the old man and even brought such big trouble. However, the old man Yamashita was willing to take the initiative to help him plead for mercy. This favor could be said to be a big favor!

"What punishment?" Aoba was not happy. Instead, his mood became more and more depressed.

"First of all, you need to personally clean up all the things you have done and then apologize to the villagers from house to house. Can you do this?"

"Shi! No! Mi! Ya! A! O! Ba! I have tolerated you for a long time! Don't f*cking run!"

Minato, who was working next door, couldn't help but smile happily when he heard the noise and the miserable screams next door. He even didn't forget to remind others not to disturb them.

"Aiya, the weather outside the window is really good!"

......

After coming out of the Hokage's building alive, Aoba was very glad that he was still alive.

"Hurry up and leave while I still have time!" Mikawa, who had a much better expression on his face, immediately urged.

Aoba, who could not resist, could only follow closely behind him like a defeated rooster.

They were going to the Hokage Rock now to quickly clean up the masterpiece of a 'certain person' and also apologize to all the craftsmen. Especially Old Master Yamashita, Aoba felt very guilty in his heart. He could only think of ways to make up for it in the future to repay this kindness.

After the Hokage announced his punishment, they would have to go from house to house to apologize to the villagers and to the shop owners, whom he had caused trouble for no reason.

After all this was done, he still needed Mikawato to guide him to write a concise and comprehensive letter of guarantee.

After completing this step, the 'fifth generation Hokage Rock incident' finally came to an end.

Of course, the premise was that no more tricks would appear. For example, if he were to do another suicide mission, or if Uchiha, who had already formed a grudge, suddenly jumped out from behind and stabbed him.

This was not a case of being persecuted or delusional, but rather, he had no choice but to be on guard.

However, Aoba clearly did not know that after the existence of Shisui, Itachi was no longer blind or deaf. He often learned about the outside world through Shisui, and most of the news was about someone.

Therefore, even if he could not go out, Itachi did his best.

At the cost of revealing Sharingan, he successfully convinced his father not to add insult to injury on this matter.

In fact, Fugaku had almost forgotten about Shinomiya Aoba. If not for the fact that this matter had blown up a bit.

Moreover, he wasn't as unbearable as Itachi was worried about.

Until now, Itachi still didn't know that the clan member who had attacked Aoba was actually acting on his own and not Fugaku's real order.

This misunderstanding was like a thorn that slowly spread between the father and son.
