Chapter 123: Urgent Mission
Sarutobi narrowed his eyes and looked at him. It was unknown what he was thinking.
For Aoba to say such words, it was unexpected and reasonable for Sarutobi.
Thinking carefully about Minato's kindness to him, Sarutobi roughly knew why this guy was so excited.
If it were for someone else, Sarutobi might not be so worried.
However, this guy knew too much. He liked to be emotional and impulsive. No one could guarantee that he would do something in his emotional state.
Moreover, hadn't this brat done enough reckless things?
However, from a different perspective, Sarutobi had to admit that Minato had a good eye for things. Aoba was indeed a good child. He valued relationships, had courage, and was grateful for his kindness. He was not a wolf that he could not raise.
Moreover, his talent and hard work were excellent, and he was truly a good seedling!
Sarutobi could not bear to part with such a talent and felt that it was good to have someone in the know who could occasionally help take care of and protect Naruto.
However, Jinchuriki was something he could not afford to lose. If he went too close, there would be hidden dangers.
Especially Danzo, this guy would definitely not compromise on this matter.
Sarutobi was a little distressed.
"I know what you are thinking. You can leave first."
Sarutobi directly gave the order to leave. Aoba didn't want to stay any longer and turned to leave. Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.
At this point, it all depended on the fact that the already dead Minato still had some status in Sarutobi's heart.
Moreover, Aoba thought that his actions were not excessive at all. Not letting Naruto be bullied and letting Naruto suffer less. Was it not good?
However, reality proved that he still thought too simply and overestimated his own role.
..................
The next day, Aoba, who had re-joined Mikawa's class, returned to his usual appearance and was doing the mission at ease.
Itachi and Gekkou Hayate both had high EQ and did not ask about what happened yesterday.
Mikawa, on the other hand, mentioned it but did not probe further.
However, just as they completed a C-level mission, Mikawa's class was directly called to the Hokage's office.
...
After all, he had only just come into contact with Naruto yesterday, and then he had said those words in front of Sarutobi. As a result, their entire team had been arranged for an urgent mission today.
If it were for anyone else, they would inevitably think about whether these two things were related or not!
Moreover, this trip would take half a month if they were fast, and if they were slow, they might only be able to come back after a month.
Could it be that Sarutobi wanted to use this method to prevent him from contacting Naruto too much?
Or was it really just a coincidence?
Aoba's hypothesis was not unreasonable, but no one could give him an answer. He could not ask in person. So it was useless to investigate further. It was better to make preparations and complete the mission safely as soon as possible.
"Everyone, get ready when you go back. Gather at Konoha's gate at eight o'clock tomorrow morning! Dismissed now!"
"Yes!"
Since they were going to leave the village to do an emergency mission tomorrow, it was best for them to conserve their energy and bring everything he needed to prepare.
Aoba was simple. A space folding ninja bag was enough to put down all his stuff.
However, before he left, he wanted to visit Naruto again and tell him about it so that he would not think too much.
However, when he came to Naruto's house, he opened the door and found that there was no one inside.
Needless to say, he must have gone out to find someone to play with.
After all, Naruto was very stubborn. The more he could not make friends, the more he refused to admit defeat.
Sure enough!
After walking, Aoba saw Naruto with some children.
"What demon fox reincarnation? He's just a brat!"
"That's right. Last time, my father insisted that I stay away from him. He was making a fuss over nothing!"
"But this kid is really stubborn. He won't cry even if he is bullied. Haha!"
"That's because you guys were too light. Watch me later!"
"I also want to see the difference between a child's cry and reincarnated Kyuubi's cry."
"Kid, did you hear that? If you don't want to suffer, just cry for everyone to see."
But from beginning to end, Little Naruto, who was being pushed around, did not shed a single tear...
