Finally found it!
It's worth all my efforts!
Naruto quickly rushed to the iron box and gently stroked it.
"Hinata, help me check if there are any booby traps in the box?" Naruto didn't dare to be careless. After all, the address of this mansion was given by Tanzo.
Hinata used her Byakugan and looked at the iron box, then said, "There's nothing unusual about the box."
With a clang, Naruto directly opened the iron box and looked inside.
"Got it!" Naruto directly picked up a scroll. On the scroll were written the five characters "Flying Thunder God Technique".
"Finally found it!" Naruto looked extremely happy.
"That's great, Naruto-kun." Seeing Naruto happy, Hinata also felt happy without knowing why.
"Hinata, do you know what this is?" Naruto showed the scroll of the Flying Thunder God Technique in his hand.
Hinata shook her head.
"No matter how far apart we are in the future, even if it's across the ends of the earth, I can instantly come to your side." Naruto was full of excitement.
The Flying Thunder God Technique is an S-rank space ninjutsu and belongs to the Shifting Body Technique. The premise is to mark the Flying Thunder God Jutsu first. As long as there is enough chakra, theoretically, it can perform long-distance cross-space teleportation.
Of course, the longer the distance, the more chakra will be consumed.
But Naruto has the Uzumaki constitution, and his own chakra is more than that of ordinary people. Coupled with the chakra of the Nine-Tailed Fox, Naruto is not worried about running out of chakra at all.
"Argh..." Karin beside them was very depressed. She began to regret why she came to see the house. Wasn't this just asking for trouble?
Hinata was a bit confused at this time. She had no idea what the Flying Thunder God Technique was, and she couldn't imagine what it would be like for someone to instantly appear by her side.
"Um, Hinata, Hinata-chan, listen to me, Hinata." Naruto said excitedly, "When you're in danger, do you hope I'll appear by your side in time?"
"What?" Karin beside them frowned and gave Naruto and Hinata an angry glare.
"Of course I do!" Hinata averted her eyes and didn't dare to look directly at Naruto.
"That's great!" Naruto jumped up happily.
Naruto put away the scroll of the Flying Thunder God Technique, then continued to reach into the iron box and took out a second scroll.
"Adamantine Sealing Chains!" Naruto was stunned for a moment.
The Adamantine Sealing Chains is an A-rank Sealing Technique of the Uzumaki clan, which can create a barrier and suppress the Tailed Beasts.
It is a technique specifically designed to seal the Tailed Beasts. It must be used in conjunction with the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan. In other words, only members of the Uzumaki clan can use this ability.
Even the Nine-Tailed Fox can be easily subdued in the face of this technique.
"Hehe..." Naruto showed a mischievous look and then looked at Karin.
"Um..." Karin felt Naruto's gaze and was immediately shocked. She thought to herself, "You already have other women. Why are you looking at me with that kind of look..."
Naruto thought to himself, "I only have half of the Uzumaki clan's bloodline. I wonder if I can learn the Adamantine Sealing Chains... It'd be great if I could master it. If not, luckily I've got Karin..."
"Next, it's time to compete with the Akatsuki for the Tailed Beasts," Naruto said to himself. "With the Adamantine Sealing Chains, I at least have something to go up against the Akatsuki."
Naruto put the scroll of the Adamantine Sealing Chains into his bosom and kept thanking his dad and mom in his heart.
The Flying Thunder God Technique left by his dad is perfect for flirting with girls; the Adamantine Sealing Chains left by his mom can give me a shot at taking on the Akatsuki.
"It's strange. Are there only these two things in the box?" Naruto felt something was off. If there were only these two things in the box, why didn't the Third Hokage hand it over?
Naruto observed the iron box and asked Hinata to continue using her Byakugan to observe the box to see if there was anything hidden.
Sure enough, Hinata used her Byakugan and found that the iron box had a secret compartment.
Opening the secret compartment of the iron box, Naruto felt around inside and took out a letter.
"What is this? Is it a letter from my parents? It doesn't make sense!" Naruto said puzzledly. "When my parents died, they needed to seal the Nine-Tailed Fox. There's no way they had time to leave a letter."
Naruto opened the envelope, took out a piece of letter paper from it, and unfolded it to read.
It said in the letter:
Naruto, when you see this letter, it proves that you have not only become a Chunin but also understood the Will of Fire.
Time flies so fast. You, who were so naughty back then, have become a capable ninja.
The two scrolls you found in the box are some of the relics of your parents.
Actually, a big event happened when you were born. A demonic fox attacked Konoha.
Your parents sacrificed their young lives to protect Konoha. It was because of their dedication that you got a new life.
This is the Will of Fire!
Wherever the leaves of Konoha dance, the fire will burn. The firelight illuminates the village and makes the trees sprout new buds.
Your parents are the heroes of Konoha, the outstanding ones who saved the village and the people. At the last moment of their lives, the village was still their primary goal to protect.
After reading this, Naruto understood. This letter was written by the Third Hokage.
The Third Hokage was right. At the last moment of their lives, Naruto's parents risked their lives to protect Konoha Village, and what they were most worried about was the newly born Naruto.
Naruto adjusted his emotions, calmed himself down, and continued to read the content of the letter.
It said in the second half of the letter:
Your parents protected Konoha with their lives. They turned into a blaze of fire, illuminating Konoha Village.
The demonic fox was sealed inside you by them. This is also the reason why the people in the village keep their distance from you.
This small chapter is not over yet. There's more exciting content later!
But I hope you don't blame the people in the village. After all, they've had a hard time too.
The damage caused by the Nine-Tailed Fox at that time was too great. Coupled with Konoha having experienced three Great Ninja World Wars in succession, the finances were almost empty.
To make up for the damage the Nine-Tailed Fox caused to the villagers, I privately decided to use most of the property your parents left to compensate the villagers.
It was precisely because of this that the villagers were appeased. After that, Konoha remained peaceful, and you were able to have a stable childhood.
If your parents were still alive, I believe they would support my actions.
The Will of Fire means being willing to dedicate everything to the village.
Naruto, the future of Konoha belongs to your young generation.
"What..." Naruto was instantly stunned after reading the content of the letter.
"My parents left me an inheritance!" Naruto said in disbelief, "And the Third Hokage misappropriated it?"
"The Third Hokage misappropriated the inheritance my parents left me. No wonder I've been so poor."
"Now I finally understand why everyone in the village knows I'm the Jinchuriki of the Nine-Tailed Fox, but no one knows I'm the son of the Fourth Hokage."
"Therefore, the Third Hokage misappropriated the inheritance my parents left me, and he couldn't possibly disclose my identity to the villagers. Otherwise, if I pursued the matter, he'd definitely have to return the inheritance to me."
"Screw the Will of Fire." Naruto directly threw the letter away.
Naruto looked at Hinata. Looking at her cute face, Naruto seemed to be instantly healed.
"Hinata-chan, from now on, I'll buy you milk every day," Naruto said. "I'll help you grow up fast to warm my weather - beaten heart."
"Huh?" Hinata was puzzled.
