8 Chapter 8: Are you sure you want to drive me away?

The next day, at six o'clock in the morning, Naruto got up on time, bathed, poured himself a glass of milk, took a few slices of bread, and sat on a chair to eat breakfast.

The milk and bread were close to the expiration date. Naruto wanted to buy some other food, after all, he had the money, but in this case, he would be exposed, and the loss outweighed the gain, so he could only endure it.

While eating breakfast, Naruto perceived three Anbu outside with Kagura's mind eyes.

Even one Anbu could do the job, but the Third Hokage had arranged for three, and six o'clock was also the time for their shift change.

"Why did he get up so early today?"

"Did you forget that today is the opening day of the ninja academy?"

"Then he doesn't have to wake up so early right?"

"Haha, he must be trying to avoid the villagers. Knowing that he is hated, he does not want to appear in their sight."

"Hmph, what is the Third Hokage-sama thinking,  letting the Nine Tails kid go to the academy? What if he goes crazy?"

"Be careful of what you're saying, you idiot! It's not something we can think about what the Third Hokage-sama will do. Just keep an eye on it, and we're going back."

"clear."

The Anbu ninja who was on shift left after a few words.

In the early morning, Konoha Streets were very quiet, except for the shop owners who opened their shops early in the morning to prepare for business, there was no one.

And the reason why Naruto went to the academy so early was to avoid trouble, and he didn't want to see those annoying guys and affect his mood.

Therefore, Naruto walking on the street at this point was particularly conspicuous.

"Huh? That's... the demon fox?"

The owner of the breakfast shop didn't react when he saw Naruto at first, because Naruto seldom comes out now.

But after he recognized him, he immediately put on a disgusted expression and even cursed him.

Naruto came out of the house and walked to the ninja academy, everyone who saw him still hated him without any exception.

Naruto yawned, a little confused.

Did the Nine Tails kill everyone's relatives and friends?

Destroying each of their houses?

If not then why did everyone that he met hate him? 

"What a bunch of idiots, I'll have to ask after I see Kurama, and then you idiots who haven't suffered a loss, will have a Tailed Beast Bomb in your house."

"Stop, the academy hasn't opened yet, you...it's you?! Go away, you are not welcome at Ninja Academy!"

The ninja guarding the gate saw a child approaching and was about to explain, but he didn't expect that it was the demon fox kid, so he changed his tone and wanted to drove Naruto away.

"This is the notice from the Third Hokage, are you sure you want to drive me away?" Naruto took out the notice and said indifferently.

"Notice?" The guard ninja was surprised.

If it was an order from the Third Hokage, he would be unable and dare not refuse.

"But the door hasn't opened yet, just wait here."

Although there was no way to drive him away, this was an academy, and if you were told to wait, you had to wait.

"Are you sure? If I don't go in now, then I will leave. When the Third Hokage asks, I will say that you drove me away."

Naruto said lazily while yawning.

Anyway, he was not interested in going to the academy. It would be good if he could leave, but the Third Hokage would not allow it. 

"You dare to threaten me?!" The guard ninja turned red from anger and glared at the demon fox that everyone hated in front of him. 

When Naruto saw his expression, he turned around and planned to leave, too lazy to speak.

"you!"

"Open the door."

Just as Naruto took two steps, an Anbu appeared and said to the ninja guarding the gate.

"Anbu! Yes, I understand."

Facing Anbu, Hokage's direct subordinate, ordinary ninjas would not provoke them easily, but would become more respectful instead.

Especially a ninja who only guarded the gate.

He could chase and scold Naruto, but when facing Anbu, he could only bow his head, and he couldn't show any dissatisfaction.

"You can go in." The Anbu said to Naruto and then disappeared from their sight.

It was the Anbu who monitored Naruto. Of course, he didn't come out to help Naruto, but the Third Hokage had already given the order to watch Naruto go to the academy.

If Naruto turned around and left at this moment, when the Third Hokage asked, how would he answer? Would he say that his mission failed?

What a joke, if this little thing couldn't be done well, he should just leave the Anbu by himself.

"So, you dare to refuse the Hokage's order?"

When Naruto passed the gate, he was still amazed and shook his head watching the ninja.

"..."

Facing Naruto's words, he could only guard the door and dared not answer, because he knew that Anbu must not have left.

Therefore, he felt that he had suffered endless humiliation!

A demon fox who was yelled at by people and hated by others, and a little devil who dared not fight back when everyone scolded him, actually used the Third Hokage to laugh at him? 

Now he felt that he was wronged, he had no face to face the villagers, no face to face his friends! 

...

Naruto didn't know what the gatekeeper was going through in his heart, so he walked toward the classroom shown in the anime on his own.

According to the nature of the Third Hokage, after thinking that he had become the irreplaceable light in Naruto's heart, he would let Umino Iruka, who also had lost his parents and felt lonely, be Naruto's teacher.

It seemed that Naruto's sentence 'Grandpa Hokage is my only friend' gave the Third Hokage more confidence.
