The Night the Fox Doesn’t Cry chapter 3

The Night the Fox Doesn’t Cry 3

“Uzumaki Naruto…that’s my name..”

“…”

“…”

“…Sheesh, Kuramada.”

“See you again… Kurama”

Naruto disappeared, leaving Kumi and Kurama alone as usual. Kurama did what he did, but he couldn’t understand it.

‘why… Did I help the kid..?’

At first, the intention was to make the seal weaker by touching the weak heart.

As a result, the seal weakened, but I didn’t like the process. But when I was looking at that child, I couldn’t leave it alone for some reason.

‘I didn’t want to make that kid look like Madara.

okay… I have to keep looking at him, but I can’t live comfortably if I look like that annoying Madara guy… ‘

Think about it and rationalize your actions.

Naruto slowly opened his eyes.

Naruto got out of bed and looked around.

Nutrients were being injected into the arm through an intravenous drip.

Naruto gets on the bed and tries to leave the room, but his legs lose strength and he falls over.

Because of that, there is a loud noise and someone enters the room.

“What are you talking about?”

A woman who appears to be a nurse enters.

And looking at Naruto with cold eyes, he clicked his tongue.

“Tch… kid. It’s usually a hospital. Be quiet! Lie down!”

“I’m sorry…”

“Really, I didn’t become a nurse to see monsters…unfortunately…”

I usually shout, close the door, and leave.

Naruto almost cried at the moment, but he remembered that he had told Kurama that he would not cry and endured it. Get on the bed slowly and lie down.

I think while looking out through the window.

A broken store… The sad sister’s expression…

because of me…

Because I’m a monster…

‘You are not a monster. Rather, I am a monster’

Naruto remembers what Kurama said.

Naruto feels a little relieved.

“Kurama too…isn’t a monster…”

By the time the sunset was setting, a family was walking in harmony outside the window. Seeing that hair, Naruto gets depressed again.

Is there no one here to look after me… While thinking, Naruto hears someone walking.

Then I hear a knock and someone comes in.

This is Haruzen Sarutobi, the 3rd Hokage.

“I’m sorry I’m late. Naruto, are you okay?”

“Grandpa…why am I here?”

The reason Naruto is here is because of severe malnutrition.

Sarutobi looked at Naruto and stroked his hair.

but don’t answer

“Now, you can go home”

“…All right”

Naruto thinks.

Grandpa always doesn’t answer my questions properly.

I don’t know why, but it’s sad every time.

But don’t complain. One of the people in this town who talks to me… no… now i’m the only one

I can’t get close to Mr. Teuchi and my sister anymore…

If I complain and even leave my grandfather, really…

I don’t have the confidence to endure it.

Naruto follows Sarutobi out of the hospital.

and walk home

While walking, Sarutobi asks Naruto.

“Do you need anything?”

“…”

Sarutobi always asks this question whenever he sees Naruto.

But Naruto was always silent. Because you don’t know what you need. But this time it was different. It’s because there is something I learned from Teuchi.

“book…”

“what?”

“I want to read a book…”

Sarutobi was surprised. It was because it was the first time that Naruto, who had always been silent, said what he wanted. Sarutobi clears his throat and then speaks.

“Yes…what book do you need…?”

“…I don’t know”

“I don’t know?”

“…I just… want to read… the book..”

Naruto learned how to write from Teuchi and was able to read various books. It was the first time I felt that it was fun.

“Then, would you like to come and visit my library?”

Niruto silently nodded without answering.

After such a conversation, Sarutobi arrives home, greets him, and leaves.

“Come to the Hokage room tomorrow.”

“…thank you..”

After that, Naruto started reading a book every day.

He spends the day reading books and talking with Kurama in the evening.

Gradually, you are moving away from other people.

Sometimes I talk to the 3rd Hokage, but only for a very short time,

Naruto didn’t learn how to get along with people, that is, social life. Thanks to this, people hate Naruto even more instead of liking it.

“Kurama”

“Why?”

“What are chakras?”

“…why are you asking that all of a sudden?”

“There are a lot of them in the book… I don’t know what they are…”

“…”

“You don’t even know Kurama?”

“I can’t… I’ll explain just once…”

Through such a conversation, Naruto learns about chakra from Kurama, and further learns the technique through books.

Naruto, who spent two years living like that, already had skills beyond that of a low-level ninja.

By the time Naruto has read more than half of the books in Sarutobi’s library, Naruto’s hair has grown over his shoulders to his waist, and his skin is white without any blemishes because he is always in a place where there is no sunlight. However, he does not eat properly and has a small physique.

“Naruto… do you have any plans to go outside?”

“…people..hate…I..harass me..”

“Well, it doesn’t matter, but isn’t there any more food in the house?”

“…I know, but”

“Can’t we use transformation?”

“I don’t want to change into someone else…it’s disgusting…”

“hahaha! You really hate people.”

“…It’s the same with Kurama.”

“That’s right, but are you a human too?”

“Kurama, do you hate me?”

Naruto throws the book he was reading and looks at Kurama with a surprised expression.

Kurama smiled and answered.

“You are special. I don’t like it.”

“It’s fortunate… If even Kurama hates me, then I really…”

“Don’t make that face. It won’t happen.”

“Yeah! Thanks Kurama”

Then, a knock is heard and the 3rd Hokage enters.

Naruto puts away his books and stands up.

“hello…”

“Okay, how are you?”

“Yes… thanks. What’s more?”

“What… do you need anything more than that?”

“…I just ran out of food.”

“Okay. I’ll bring it to you soon…but…”

Sarutobi looks at Naruto for a moment.

Naruto looked at Sarutobi and tilted his head.

Sarutobi takes out a book and gives it to Naruto.

“Why don’t you go to the academy? Naruto”

The title of the book Sarutobi gave was The Basics of Ninja.

“Are you saying…become a ninja?”

“Yes… ”

Naruto makes a disgusted face.

There are two reasons.

First, I hate ninjas.

Because in Naruto’s memory, there is only a ninja who beats Naruto and steals his money.

The second one hates people.

When you go to the academy, you naturally meet children of the same age as you. Children are cruel because they are innocent.

He thinks it’s natural to bully Naruto, and boasts that he is a hero who defeats monsters when bullied.

That’s why Naruto didn’t want to go to the ninja academy.

“Why is that? Naruto, your complexion is bad.”

“..that..that..”

Naruto is worried.

Naruto thinks that if he refuses the 3rd Hokage’s request, even the Hokage will hate him.

Looking at Naruto like that, Sarutobi laughs.

“hahahaha, don’t worry, Naruto, you’ll definitely make great friends.”

“…If it was going to be that simple… it would have happened a long time ago…”

“Huh? What did you say?”

“…it’s nothing”

“Then I’ll just go.

Naruto muttered so much that Sarutobi couldn’t hear him.

And looking at Sarutobi’s back, I get depressed.

“Sheesh, that old Hokage guy… I don’t like it”

“…Don’t do that, Kurama…I’m the only one I can talk to…”

“But… that guy is halfway being kind to you.

You already know that that’s more painful than indifference…?”

“However…”

“Whoa…you’re too backward…”

“Sorry…”

“Don’t ever apologize”

“yes…”

“Oh, Iruka, you’ve worked hard.”

“No. Hokage-sama, why did you call me?”

“Iruka, there is a child I want to ask you for.”

“To me?”

Haruzen hands over the documents to Iruka.

Seeing the document, Iruka’s face hardened.

“Ho… Hokage-sama? Is this child…?”

“Yes, it’s Naruto’s Jinchurei. This child is hated by the villagers, so no one wants to take over as Naruto’s homeroom teacher.

If Naruto can’t go to school like this, he won’t be able to become a ninja.

If that happens, Naruto will become unemployed in the future… “

“Wait a minute! Naruto has another suitable person…”

“If there’s no homeroom teacher, I can’t make them go to the academy!”

Iruka sighs after hearing Haruzen’s words.

And quietly open your mouth

“Please wait a moment”

“Why are you doing that? Are you saying you’ll accept it?”

“Ah..ah? So…yes…”

“Ohh! Yes, I will only believe in you, Iruka.”

“…Ha..I see.”

Iruka, who accepted Haruzen’s request without hesitation, continues to sigh even after Haruzen leaves. Another teacher approaches Iruka.

“Iruka-sensei, I heard you’re going to be that child’s homeroom teacher…

That’s misfortune among misfortunes.”

“Yes…because he is a troublesome child.”

“Well…just treat it in moderation. Moderately.”

“Good enough?”

“Yes, if we don’t deal with it…it will fall off on its own.”

Iruka didn’t answer that.

and… Even after work, the teacher’s words linger in my head.

Then suddenly, I remember when I was young.
