“Reasons to become stronger?”

Sasuke paused, with a confused look in his eyes. He suspected that Yukimura was deliberately making things difficult for him. Otherwise, what reason would he need to become stronger?

Becoming stronger and more powerful and becoming the most powerful ninja in the village shouldn’t that be something every ninja dreams of?

"People always have a reason to do things."

Yukimura said again.

"If you want to make a famous name in the ninja world, want to make a lot of money, want to gain praise from your family and companions, want to become a Naruto, and even want to get more favor from girls, it is all a matter of people.

One of the reasons to strive to be a strong man.”

"So, what's your reason?"

"I……"

Sasuke's eyes flashed, he lowered his head and thought for a moment. From his expression, he could see that he seemed a little confused at the moment. Then, he raised his head and did not answer the question immediately. Instead, he hesitated for a moment and continued to ask back.

"What about... Naruto? What about his reason?"

Since everyone needs a reason, then Naruto is working so hard to become stronger, there must be a reason.

"certainly."

Yukimura nodded and replied.

Although Naruto has never heard him say it in person, anyone who has read the comics actually knows it.

"That's why Naruto wants to get the recognition of everyone around him."

He looked at Sasuke and replied word by word in a sure tone.

Yes, gaining everyone's recognition is the reason to support Naruto along the way.

Very simple and very pure.

As for the rest, what is becoming a Naruto who is better than others is just a means for Naruto to achieve this goal.

"Is this his reason?"

Sasuke frowned. This reason sounded very simple at first glance. There was nothing as tall as glorious as a hero or a hero. It seemed like it was very simple.

But after thinking carefully, it is not easy to make everyone around you agree with you. Even if you look deeper, this goal is much more difficult than becoming a Naruto or something.

Because human hearts are very complicated things, even a good thing cannot always receive a good response. You can never accurately guess what others think, so you cannot make others satisfied with yourself forever, even if you are not sure.

It is Naruto, and it is impossible to completely gain the recognition of everyone around you.

Although some people have said that only those who are recognized by everyone can become Naruto. This sentence is correct, but this master cannot fully represent everyone, but only represents most of them.

Therefore, Sasuke could imagine how much effort Naruto needed to achieve his goal.

"But……"

Sasuke hesitated, he still didn't quite understand why Naruto chose such a difficult thing as his goal to work hard?

"Sasuke, do you know Naruto?"

Yukimura asked, for Sasuke, was Naruto any other meaning besides his classmates at Ninja School and his companions who performed the mission together?

"Of course I understand."

Sasuke replied without hesitation, but just after saying this, he was stunned again because he realized that he actually did not know Naruto as well as he imagined.

He knew Naruto's strength, Naruto's character, and the fact that Naruto was an orphan.

However, he didn't know that there were many, such as why Naruto became orphans, and who were his parents?

And, why he tried so hard to gain recognition from others, and what was the real reason?

His understanding of Naruto was only on the surface, but he actually didn't know the real Naruto.

"About thirteen years ago, something big happened in Konoha Village. Do you know what's going on?"

Yukimura leaned against the sofa, picked up the teacup and drank it, moistened her throat, and asked again.

"Of course I know."

Sasuke nodded immediately, the incident thirteen years ago was a huge change for any villager in Konoha. Even children who have not experienced it personally will know this from their families.

Konoha Village can be called a huge disaster.

"The nine-tailed demon fox attacked Konoha and was sealed by the fourth generation of Naruto at the expense of himself."

Sasuke replied.

"Yes, then do you know where the Nine-Tails were sealed?"

Yukimura looked at him seriously and asked again.

"this……"

Sasuke was speechless for a moment, and he suddenly realized that he had never thought about this problem.

Yes, since it's a seal, there must be a place.

Fugao only told him about the seal of Kyuuba. As for where the seal was, he never mentioned it.

"It seems you don't know."

Yukimura nodded in a clear way and said lightly.

It's not surprising that Sasuke didn't know this.

Shortly after the Kyuuba incident, the third generation issued a special ban, and the villagers were not allowed to mention that Naruto was Renjiriki. Therefore, although most adults at that time knew Naruto's identity, the children who grew up later were not clear.

"Then let me tell you, the Kyuuba is now sealed in Naruto's body."

Yukimura said in a deep voice, and before Sasuke could recover from his previous shock, he threw another bomb again.

"And, the fourth generation of Naruto who sealed the Kyuuba and sacrificed his own death was actually Naruto's biological father."

"What?"

Sasuke raised his head suddenly, his face full of shock. Fugao had never said such a thing before.

"So, Naruto is from the fourth generation of Naruto..."

He murmured in a low voice with a look of astonishment.

Does that kid Naruto have such a prominent life experience?

But why...

"The fourth generation of Naruto sealed the Nine Tails in his child's body, making Naruto a container for the Nine Tails and protecting Konoha Village. But because of this, Naruto has since become a homeless person

The orphan who returned."

Yukimura said smoothly, slowly unveiling Naruto's identity in front of Sasuke.

"This is what Naruto carries. Because of the Nine Tails, he had to live in the eyes of the villagers since his infancy, when other children enjoyed a happy childhood with family and friends,

All Naruto has is an empty home and a pile of biting eyes.”

"For you, the so-called strengthening of the school's chief student is just a small way to get praise from his family and envy his companions. Even without these, you are still the young master of the Uchiha clan.

We are envious of the children around us by the love of our father, mother and brother.”

"But for Naruto, becoming stronger, becoming stronger, and then getting recognition from others, making everyone around him recognize him, but this is the only thing he can work hard to get. Because in addition,

He has almost nothing.”

"You think it's a very unpleasant thing to be surpassed by Naruto, but you have always had a lot of things that Naruto has been striving to pursue."

"I see."

Sasuke stuttered his lips, and a hint of enlightenment flashed in his eyes. Although he could not fully understand such a life, even with a little imagination, he could feel how hard it was.

He knew the harm caused to the village back then. It was precisely because of this that he understood the villagers' attitude towards the village, which was a complete rejection and hatred.

No wonder, many adults have such strange and cold attitudes towards Naruto.

"Did that guy Naruto live in such an environment all the time?"

He lowered his head and whispered in a voice that only he could hear: "Is this why that guy struggled?"

"Yes, this is why Naruto worked hard and could become stronger quickly."

Yukimura nodded and continued.

"Maybe in your opinion, Naruto's transition from weak to strong was only a short half day. However, for this short half day, Naruto endured the years of hardship of both his parents' death and his lonely life from childhood to adulthood.

Life is enduring pressure that ordinary people cannot imagine, and under such pressure, it is still step by step to the present."

"He is not just practicing hard, but also living hard, for his dreams and for the affirmation of the people around him. This is Naruto, and this is the truth that Naruto can quickly become stronger.

”

After saying that, Yukimura looked at Sasuke and asked like this.

"Now, do you still think Naruto's growth is simple?"

"I……"
