But Naruto, after just ran a few steps, he stopped again.

"My stupid younger brother--. Have you been living a peaceful life for too long? Have you forgotten how the village treated you? Did you forget how much the village is to forget favors? You run like this, questioning them face to face, really think that they will let you go with peace of mind? If they ask how you got the news, how should you answer them? Naruto, Naruto, aren't you feeling too comfortable? Well, even if you really asked the old fogey face-to-face, the old fogey would say that it was because the war was over shortly after that that they had no spare time to rescue Land-of-Whirlpools. What about you? Will you believe this excuse? Do you accept this excuse? If you don't believe or accept it, what can you do? Pointing at the old fogey's nose and scolding him?"

A series of questions.

Naruto was dumbstruck and unable to reply. But what he considered first was not his own safety but the truth of the matter. The words of the big brother were indeed true. He would not believe this excuse, and he could not accept it at all.

Others help you, and then you just watch other people's country be wiped out? Even if the reason is really the case, is this still the Will of Fire that everyone said?

'Is this still the village that I know? Is this the village still the village that dad wanted to protect?'

Even Naruto was frightened by this thought.

As for the last sentence of Li Yaoxiang who ridiculed him, he subconsciously ignored the past. However, although this news does change Naruto's perception of the village, the impact will not be too great. After all, he still grew up in this village. Conversely, what about Land-of-Whirlpools? Although he is of the same family, he had only seen the three words Land-of-Whirlpools in history textbooks. If you really want to talk about feelings, it is still not as deep as the village.

It was impossible to ask him to suddenly feel a strong feeling for Land-of-Whirlpools and feel revenge for clansman. Therefore, even at this moment, Naruto still did not give up and wanted to find a suitable reason for the village so that his heart would not feel so uncomfortable.

"Maybe... maybe... maybe the village has its problems? Land-of-Whirlpools is also the home country of the First-Hokage's wife. Old fogey shouldn't be doing that..."

There is no accident in the eyes of Li Yaoxiang. He knew this would be like this. He didn't stagger and made another shot immediately: "What's the matter? Do you still have a beautiful fantasy about the village? Really think that the village hasn't done the unscrupulous things?"

Naruto's lowered head suddenly lifted up. Both eyes were wide open. But even if he wanted to stop it, it was impossible. If the big brother insists on what he wants to say, Naruto can only be forced to listen. After all, he's talking inside Naruto's mind. Covering your ears can't hide his voice.

"These days, you haven't heard too much about your father, right? Then you should know that there are other people who are familiar with your father besides your mother, right? You're not curious why they never visited you?"

Naruto swallowed saliva. He was afraid that if he allowed the big brother to continue talking, what the big brother will say would be unimaginable. How can he face the village calmly in the future?

As if he could read his mind, Li Yaoxiang laughed: "Relax, it's not something that makes you want to vomit. Except that they really didn't take you seriously, they are actually a victim themselves." Naruto's mouth twitched. This matter had always been a thorn in Naruto's heart. He couldn't understand why a person who once had such a good relationship with his father would let him be bullied.

'It's so difficult as my brother said...'

'Are most of the people in the village cold and ruthless?'

With the days in recent years getting better and better, he almost forgot these unhappy things. But Naruto never expected that the big brother mentioned them again at this time and had to remind Naruto that the other side never took him seriously at all. This made Naruto's impression of them only worse. But when he heard that they were also victims, Naruto couldn't help getting curious.

To the best of his knowledge, apart from his mother, he heard the most news about his father from his brother. One is the father's master, Lord-Jiraiya of Konoha, one of the Sannin. The other is the student of his father, Hatake Kakashi, also one of Konoha's famous genius students except for Uchiha Itachi. Now he was currently a Jonin in the village. In this period of time, many people compared him with Uchiha Itachi.

'The problem is that where are these two currently in Konoha. How could they be the victims mentioned by the big brother?'

It didn't take long. Li Yaoxiang quickly solved his confusion for him: "The father of Hatake Kakashi was killed indirectly by the old fogey. The funny thing is that Kakashi doesn't know the truth of this matter. He's bitter about this matter and has rejected his father's teaching to him for many years now. If ever comes a time when he finally figures it out, he will get caught in another thing. The old-fogey can be said to have changed Kakashi's life. As a result, Kakashi cannot come out of the shadows. Doubt of self. Doubt everything. As for Jiraiya of Konoha one of the Sannin... No one can't pursue his affairs anymore. In short, Naruto, the reason why I told you all this today is that I don't want you to be like Kakashi, who was influenced by the old fogey for most of his life and has not come out of the shadows. Moreover, they're not rare; people like Kakashi and Jiraiya. Fortunately, they saw the nature of the village, so they gave up on the village and left the village. Those who are unlucky, like Kakashi, live in pain. I don't want you to keep being naive like this, alright? If you do not recognize the true nature of the village in advance, you will only lose yourself in the future."

After listening, Naruto felt warm. This turned out to be the real intention of the big brother. Instantly, Naruto couldn't help but raise a thought in his heart.

'I, Uzumaki Naruto, without father, without mother. It's ok. I have a big brother who loves me so much.

Of course, he was moved. It is impossible for Naruto to accept this cruel reality gladly. After all, who doesn't want to live in a carefree fairy tale world forever?

Seeing Naruto's distorted face, Li Yaoxiang spoke: "What's wrong? Unwilling to accept this fact? Then you can go check with the villagers. So many people should know about what happened to Kakashi."
