Trees Chapter 359 The Yellow-Haired Delinquent's Plan To Harm The Three Wise Men

Upon seeing Sasuke’s message, Jiraiya immediately thought of his damned disciple.

‘Oh no!’

‘Had Naruto exposed me and Kakashi’s CD-selling business in Konoha?’

Jiraiya quickly pulled out his phone and called Kakashi.

"Kakashi!"

"Stop everything! We’ve been exposed!"

"Hurry and destroy the remaining CDs!"

After multiple close calls, Jiraiya and Kakashi had already switched out all the actors in their films.

As long as they weren’t caught red-handed, even Tsunade wouldn’t be able to prove the CDs were theirs.

"Understood! Jiraiya-sama!"

Kakashi replied in a low voice before activating his Mangekyō Sharingan and tossing the remaining DVDs into Kamui Dimension.

‘Obito...’

‘Guess these are your problem now.’

After destroying the evidence, the two of them stood tall, walking through Konoha’s streets without their usual sneaky demeanor.

Now!

They were upright and blameless!

Even if Naruto tried to frame them, it wouldn’t work!

However, Jiraiya had no idea that a disaster from years ago was about to explode today.

And thanks to a certain yellow-haired man’s scheming...

He was about to piss off four women at once.

…

"Minato!"

"Care to explain who this woman is?!"

Kushina glared at the unfamiliar woman, then at Minato’s clueless expression, which only made her angrier.

Bang…

She elbowed him hard in the ribs. It didn’t actually hurt much, but Minato knew if he didn’t play along, he’d be bedridden for days.

"Ow ow ow!!!"

"Honey... I... I don’t even know her!"

Minato clutched his stomach, looking utterly wronged. He shot desperate glances at his son, silently begging for help.

Naruto turned his head away, pretending not to notice.

‘Sorry... Dad...’

‘For the sake of your son's happy life... you’ll have to suffer a bit.’

Konan’s expression darkened further as she stepped forward, looming over Shizuka with a cold glare.

"Hmph. You think you can steal Nagato from me?"

Kushina: “?”

Minato: “??”

Hearing what this woman said, the Minato couple were both stunned.

They both turned to Naruto, only to see the brat whistling innocently.

"Wait!"

"There’s definitely some misunderstanding here."

Minato sensed something was off and pointed at Shizuka up ahead as he spoke.

Shizuka had never seen such a scene before… first, a girl with white eyes shouting about killing her, then two extremely fierce women arriving on the scene...

And both of them held nothing but malice toward her.

But...

She wasn’t even interested in those other two!

Kushina, hearing Minato’s words, pushed away her husband’s arm and rolled her eyes, annoyed.

"Oh?"

"You mean you didn’t know about the fiancée Jiraiya-sensei arranged for you?"

Minato froze for a long moment at those words.

He suddenly remembered what Jiraiya had told him.

The matter with the Nadeshiko Village was something Minato was aware of.

But back then, he’d heard they hadn’t even taken in a disciple yet, so he hadn’t paid it much mind.

After all...

How could it possibly involve him?

But now, looking at the girl who appeared to be around the same age as his son...

Minato glanced at Naruto’s guilty expression and noticed that Hinata was beside him, then suddenly realized something.

‘So it’s like that!’

‘You kid...’

‘You’re trying to divert your girlfriend’s attention by throwing your dad under the bus, huh?’

Kushina seemed to catch on as well. She looked at the girl in front of them, then turned her gaze toward her son.

Even Konan turned to stare.

Naruto, standing frozen under the weight of multiple piercing glares, felt sweat pouring down his back.

Meanwhile, Shizuka, realizing that Naruto had been lying to her earlier, pointed at Naruto and declared firmly:

"I don’t want anyone else!"

"I choose you!"

"Uzumaki Naruto!"

Her voice grew louder and more passionate as she spoke.

"Naruto, this is fate’s arrangement for the two of us!"

The three spectators took another two steps back.

"Oh ho!" x3

‘Uzumaki Naruto!’

‘You’re so dead now!’

Sasuke and the two girls’ eyes sparkled with amusement as they pulled out their phones to record this precious moment.

Sasuke had already made up his mind...

If Naruto ever dared to mess with him again, he’d make sure to invite both Sara and this woman to sit at a separate table during Naruto and Hinata’s wedding.

‘Let’s see how he survives that.’

Hinata stared intently at Naruto, but not a trace of killing intent radiated from her.

After all, Naruto’s parents were here and she didn’t want to leave a bad impression on them.

After hearing what the woman said, Konan was silent for a long time, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Naruto became strange.

"I have things to do..."

"I’m heading back first."

Whoosh…

Konan unfolded her paper wings and soared into the sky.

Kushina was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly burst into laughter, her earlier anger completely gone as she took in her son’s miserable expression.

“Hahahahaha!”

"Son, we’ve got things to attend to in the Pure Land..."

"We’re heading back now."

Naruto’s face fell when he heard his mom say that.

He immediately shot Minato a pleading look.

‘Dad!’

‘Don’t go!!’

‘Save your precious son!!’

Minato still doted on his son and took a step toward him…

But Kushina wasn’t about to let him ruin Naruto’s ‘good fortune’. She smacked the back of Minato’s head and yanked him by the collar toward the dimensional gate.

"What do you think you're doing?! Huh?!"

"Get back home!"

Minato could only sigh and shoot Naruto a helpless look. Before leaving, Kushina made sure to say goodbye to Hinata.

"Hinata, Auntie has some things to take care of."

"Come by Naruto’s place another day, and I’ll cook for you."

Hinata’s face flushed red again, and she nodded shyly, her words stumbling.

"O-Okay..."

"Goodbye, Auntie Kushina..."

When Kushina saw Hinata, she liked her very much. Then she glanced at the girl shouting about making Naruto her husband.

‘Hmm… this one’s not bad either!’

Thinking of this, Kushina couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

‘If I had known earlier, I would have brought Sarah along too…’

After saying her goodbyes, Kushina dragged Minato away, vanishing as if they’d never been there in the first place.

Naruto stood frozen, sweat pouring down his face in waves.

Feeling Hinata’s killing intent rising again, he quickly turned to Shizuka and spoke bluntly, "Just go back!"

"You’re clearly no match for me!"

Naruto didn’t hold back at all, and even Sasuke couldn’t stand it.

"Naruto, she’s a girl, you shouldn’t be so…"

Bang…

Naruto kicked him flying dozens of meters away.

‘Damn it!!’

‘You really want me to die, huh?!’

Surprisingly, Shizuka didn’t seem discouraged by Naruto’s harsh words. Instead, it ignited her fighting spirit.

"Then please show me the gap between us..."

"I’ll train hard and surpass you!"

Whoosh…

Her expression was full of determination, as if she truly believed that with enough effort, she could defeat Naruto.

Sasuke, who had just returned, stroked his chin thoughtfully. He was already considering how to help this woman get stronger.

‘It might be a little difficult to beat this yellow-haired bastard...’

‘But it shouldn’t be difficult to cause this yellow-haired bastard some trouble!’

Hinata, unable to hold back any longer, drew her Zanpakuto and swung it toward Shizuka.

Bang!

The next second, Shizuka’s knees buckled, forcing her into a kneeling position with her hands raised high above her head… an extremely humiliating pose in front of everyone.

Hinata stared down at her coldly.

"You?"

"You think you stand a chance?"
