Naruto: Naraku Grows Stronger as a Beautiful, Tragic Side Character

Chapter 80: Chapter 80 The scene of Naraku returning after fighting the Grass Ninja alone and appearing before Kana

The scene of Naraku returning after fighting the Grass Ninja alone and appearing before Kana, backlit, was even hailed as one of Uchiha Naraku’s highlight moments.

[Naraku thought of everything for Kana, but he didn’t think of himself]

[What if he never returns? Then he never returns!]

[I admit Naraku is indeed this (thumbs up)]

[Even covered in blood, Baby Naraku is an angel T-T]

[It’s over, Kakashi has more and more rivals in love]

[The Uchiha Succubus is terrifying]

The next episode showed the pursuers attacking again, forcing the two to separate.

After receiving Naraku’s seemingly plea for help, but actually a farewell, Kana, holding onto a last glimmer of hope, ran until she vomited blood to rush back to Konoha, and at the last moment, received the favor of fate, encountering Sakumo and Kakashi who were passing by.

[They can’t make it, can they...? Naraku just wanted her to escape on her own, so he made up an excuse]

[It’s definitely impossible to make it; it’s still very far from Konoha]

[For Naraku, this was a final goodbye]

[He didn’t even get to see Kakashi and Sakumo one last time before he was going to die on the way back to Konoha]

[Stop talking, stop talking, I’m really crying]

[Silly girl, you’re already vomiting blood, if you keep running, you’ll run yourself to death]

[Kana ran and cried, and I watched and cried]

[How could she stop? This is Naraku’s life, boo hoo hoo]

[It’s over... It really feels like a final parting]

[Ah ah ah ah ah! Sakumo! Kakashi!]

[The goddess of fate smiled upon Kana’s efforts]

[To meet like this, it can only be said that Naraku was not destined to die]

[Hurry, hurry, ah ah ah ah]

Following Sakumo’s footsteps, the audience rushed into the Barrier, only to find Naraku lying in the middle of blood and fire, his life unknown, their hearts clenching.

Before they could even see if Naraku was alive or dead, the episode ended.

[Did they make it? Did they make it?!]

[Naraku ah ah ah ah ah ah щ(゜ロ゜щ)]

[How much pain must he be in?]

[Gai—a—!!!]

[I’m really going crazy, Old Thief, what are you doing!!!]

[Why stop here!!!]

Continuing to watch, the next episode showed the Hokage Office, where Hiruzen Sarutobi was processing documents when Danzo Shimura rushed in, making a demand as soon as he entered.

”Hiruzen, that Uzumaki Clan girl, hand her over to me.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn’t even lift his head: ”I’ve already registered her under Kushina’s name, and Kushina will take care of her.”

”What does that Jinchuriki know? Only I can train her into a qualified weapon!”

”This is Lady Mito’s wish.”

Danzo Shimura quieted down.

After the Nine-Tailed was transferred, Uzumaki Mito, though not having many days left, as the First Hokage’s wife and the stabilizing force of Konoha, had the right to protect her Clan Member and arrange a place for Uzumaki Kana.

”Also,” Hiruzen Sarutobi finally looked up, his sharp eyes fixed on Danzo, and said in a deep voice, ”Aren’t you going to explain anything? Regarding Uchiha Naraku.”

”Hmph, the Uchiha brat himself was incompetent, what does his failed mission have to do with me?”

Danzo Shimura vehemently denied it, as he had handled the matter quite cleanly, and Hiruzen Sarutobi wouldn’t find direct evidence; at most, the trail would go cold after a few expendable pawns.

Without evidence, even if Hiruzen Sarutobi suspected him, he couldn’t do anything to him.

Not only could he not do anything to him, but Hiruzen Sarutobi, to prevent the Uchiha from discovering the truth and erupting, would also have to hold his nose and clean up his mess.

”Danzo! I’ll reiterate, when dealing with Uchiha-related matters, you must be cautious!”

Hiruzen Sarutobi sighed heavily: ”This matter ends here. No news will reach the Uchiha, but you are not to make any more moves!”

”I said I didn’t do it, so I didn’t do it.”

Danzo Shimura, his expression unchanged, leaned on his cane, tapped the floor twice, and feigned anger:
