days later. Early in the morning. Uzumaki Naruto's house.

Due to insomnia for 2 days, on the 3rd day night, Naruto was finally too tired and slept unconsciously. As a result, he was about to miss the meeting time.

Naruto was still lying in a 'big' shape in bed. Still snoring and sleeping.

Soon, a masked Anbu ninja broke into Naruto's room and woke him up.

"Hu~ Who? Don't be annoying! Why do you bother people sleeping?" Naruto pulled away the man's palm in confusion.

Anbu ninja withdrew his palm and lightly said, "The rally is about to begin. Lord-Hokage told me to call you. If you want to continue sleeping, then I will go back and report."

Uzumaki Naruto was shocked! His whole body bounced!

"What!!!!! The meeting! The meeting! You wait for me! Wait for me!"

Immediately afterward, Naruto rushed to the bathroom, washed his face at random, picked up a toothbrush, and walked out while brushing his teeth and changing his clothes: "Wait! I'm getting ready. You go tell Grandpa Hokage to wait for me~"

Seeing that Naruto had already begun preparations, the Anbu left Naruto's house.

Naruto walked to the closet and scanned the clothes in the closet with his fingers. Finally, his fingers stopped. The best-preserved cotton coat was the orange and blue set in the original work.

It was relatively small.

Naruto had been reluctant to wear this 'new coat'. But for him today, the significance was too great. He can't ignore appearances as he always did.

'Be sure not to shame your own father!'

Finished dressing... sorted out the messy hair a little.

After witnessing the most handsome self in front of the mirror, Naruto then left the house in high spirits and walked towards the square where the meeting was held.

...…

This so-called convening venue is actually the meeting place of Chunin Exams in original work. In the venue, at this moment, in addition to the crowds in the auditorium, even the empty space in the middle also gathered a lot of people. There was no other reason for it. Konoha is nominally a village, but its size is no smaller than some towns, or even larger.

Today, although the entire Konoha was currently experiencing up and down, they still gathered here, though not every people.

Soon, Naruto also arrived at this venue.

Due to his late arrival, he could only enter the venue where the place is used to have a 'duel'.

It's just that when he first appeared in everyone's field of vision, he quickly attracted resentment and ridicule from those around him.

"Hmph! What a shame. The monster comes here too."

"Doesn't he know that everyone doesn't welcome him? Still appearing here so swaggeringly?"

"If I were him, I wouldn't stay here. It's disgraceful. A demon fox is the demon fox."

All sorts of contempt sounded into Naruto's ears. Everywhere he passed, someone would subconsciously give way, avoiding him deliberately, pointing fingers at him. As if he was like a virus, a plague, and they would be disgusted when they encountered him.

All of this, Naruto has long been accustomed to it. He just took it for granted.

In the past, whenever he heard such vicious words and disgusted eyes, his heart could not help feeling lost and sad.

But not today! He doesn't care what they said!

Because he firmly believed that at the end of today, everything would be fine!

...

With the arrival of the protagonist, Uzumaki Naruto, Sarutobi Hiruzen didn't let everyone wait too long. He soon appeared in everyone's field of view and walked slowly to the position of the Hokage seat.

Seeing the appearance of Sarutobi Hiruzen, the loud noise in the scene was loud again.

"Wow! Lord-Hokage today even wears the Hokage robe and Hokage hat. So grand. You said, Lord-Hokage told us to come today, what the hell is he going to announce?"

"Of course, things are not simple. Otherwise, he wouldn't call so many people here." "Bah! Look, at that damned demon fox has the skin to stay. Let me say that on such an important occasion, he should not be let in!"

"Who said we disagree to you? Didn't you realize that nobody wanted to see him from the start?"

The vicious voices were getting worse.

Naruto kept admonishing himself in his heart and cheering himself up. "It's okay, it's okay. When old man reveals my identity, everyone will never treat me like this again! That's right! It must be like this!"

...…

Soon, Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the platform of the Hokage seat under so much attention and expectations. He stood in front of the platform, looked around. His eyes finally fell on the excited little Naruto. He smiled and nodded at Naruto.

Immediately after he coughed twice, the villagers on the scene became quiet.

He began his speech: "I am very happy that everyone spared their precious busy time..." Sarutobi Hiruzen's voice seemed very relaxed. But its volume is enough for the nearly tens of thousands of villagers present to hear clearly.

That's it, let's talk a lot of opening remarks...

Seeing Naruto called a gnashing one's teeth, little fist clenched, secretly whispered: "Damn it, old man! Just say it!"

Talk, talk...

Sarutobi Hiruzen finally got to the point.

"The reason for calling everyone here today is actually to tell you clearly about the incident in the 'Demon Fox's Attack' back then."

Immediately after he said it, everyone was in an uproar. They took a breath. It was a night that no one wanted to remember. They don't know why Lord-Hokage had to bring it up again to uncover everyone's scars.

Some people even looked towards Naruto, standing angrily at the center, resentfully wishing to fry him and tear him apart!

It wasn't until Sarutobi Hiruzen 'coughed' twice, beckoning everyone to be quiet, and everyone present stopped the noise.

"I can understand the pain of losing your family. It is also very clear that no one wants to recall what happened back then. But there is one thing I must remind everyone. In order to alleviate the pain, we choose to escape the reality and escape the past; this is definitely not a good way to solve the problem! Moreover, if the heroes, friends, and family members who sacrificed to save us in those years know that we are still living in the past; they will not be happy! They protected us, so that everyone can have a better future! I don't want you to continue to live in the shadows of the past! Therefore, if we want to thank them and honor them, we should live more wonderfully than before! This is worthy of their sacrifice for everyone!"

Some emotional remarks moved everyone on the scene too much.

Some people wept silently. Some people were moved by this. Some people were excited by this.

Gradually, as the first person clapped and applauded, waves of intense applause sounded.

Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third-Hokage, was once again recognized and loved by the villagers.

Because of these sensational words, some villagers who were still bitter and heartbroken over the past were finally relieved. And secretly vowed to live more comfortably than ever! Even getting more excited!
