Naruto: Son of the Fourth Hokage

Chiriku, this person, seems like a monk, but in reality, he doesn't have any 'great wisdom' at all, and can't comprehend Naruto's Mahayana Buddhism.

"Alas, everyone is drunk, and I alone am sober." Naruto shook his head, giving up the idea of ​​using a fabricated heart sutra to deceive Ninjutsu, and then returned to the Fire Temple under the silly expressions of his teammates.

It was already evening when they went out, and this journey was all about tracking and fighting, and it was already late at night.

The Fire Temple still uses torches and lanterns in a very retro way, and naturally the monks are responsible for reburying the coffins and repairing the Barrier.

"Huh? I thought the temple would be vegetarian." Dinner was of course provided by the temple, and Naruto saw that there was fish and meat on the table.

Kakashi, who had relaxed, took out his spiritual food and said, "Of course not, if they don't eat some meat, where will they get the strength to practice martial arts."

Although Sakura was used to his appearance, she couldn't help but remind him: "Kakashi-sensei, aren't you afraid of retribution for reading this kind of thing in a temple?"

"That kind of thing is fine, not letting me read is the real retribution." Kakashi flipped through the book with one hand and ate with the other, not caring.

Naruto showed a look of scum: "Hopeless."

After a few people finished eating, they went to their respective guest rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, Naruto was awakened by the sound of the monks' morning exercises. These people were quite diligent.

After glancing at Sasuke, who was also awakened, Naruto dragged him out for a while, and then went straight to the main hall—he planned to ask for some peace charms and the like to take back.

"What's the use of this thing?" Sasuke held a small wooden sign in his hand and expressed his incomprehension. He felt that instead of relying on this to protect him, it would be better to bring more Shuriken.

"Souvenirs, after all, it's a well-known temple in the Shinobi World." Naruto didn't believe in these things either. Taking them back was just to give to his family and friends. The only gods and Buddhas in this world that could inspire some awe in him were probably Hashirama Senju's Top Transformed Buddha.

"Yo, you're full of energy." Kakashi leaned against the pillar at the entrance of the main hall and read a book. Sakura seemed to be about to go in.

Naruto felt that if Kakashi and Sakura came together, then is there a possibility that his handsome pose was temporarily put on?

"It's not strange that we're energetic, it's rare that you show up so early, right?"

"After all, we're on someone else's territory." Kakashi said, "Okay, it's almost time to say goodbye to Master Chiriku."

Naruto subconsciously sensed Chiriku's location, and then hesitated: "It seems there's no need to say goodbye for the time being."

...

About ten kilometers away from the Fire Temple, two people were slowly walking towards the Fire Temple. Both of them were wearing Black and Red Cloud Robes.

One of them had gray hair, a Forehead Protector tied around his neck, and a red, long-handled, three-bladed scythe in his hand. His expression was a little impatient: "Hey, Kakuzu, isn't that a temple? What are we doing there?"

Kakuzu wore a Hidden Waterfall Village Forehead Protector, with a horizontal line in the middle of the Forehead Protector to indicate that he was a rogue ninja. He also wore a mask on his face, revealing only two Green eyes, and held a map in his hand:

"This is no ordinary temple. The Fire Temple in the Land of Fire is a very famous ninja temple."

Hidan pointed at Kakuzu with his scythe: "Huh? So what, are you going to betray the Evil God Sect? Lord Evil God will not forgive you."

"Shut up, you were the one who said that religion could make money, that's why I teamed up with you. Now I have to earn money myself."

Kakuzu folded the map and put it in his sleeve, and said with some indignation: "Moreover, even now, those guys in the organization still want to hand over the money I worked so hard to earn to outsiders!"

"You're full of the stench of money. Why did you come to this place? I have no interest in heretical temples at all. Didn't we agree to go and capture the Seven Tails? There's no need to pass through the Land of Fire at all to go to the Hidden Waterfall Village from the Land of Lightning."

If you start from the Land of Lightning and go to the Hidden Waterfall Village, you only need to pass through small countries such as the Land of Hot Water and the Land of Iron north of the Land of Fire, or you can go directly by water.

Kakuzu took him all the way to the Land of Fire, making a big circle, and Hidan felt very unhappy about this boring journey.

Kakuzu stated his purpose plainly, "If I had to say, it's because there's someone remarkable at the Fire Temple."

Hidan understood instantly, "Don't tell me it's for money again? Hey, exchanging monks for money will send you to hell."

"Even in hell, you need money," Kakuzu said, unconcerned. "That guy is one of the Guardian Ninja Twelve, worth thirty million."

Hidan complained unhappily, "You're always like this; it's because you don't do your job properly that our missions are delayed until now. Speaking of which, is that guy strong?"

Kakuzu said, "Of course, he was once an elite ninja responsible for protecting the daimyo, a specially selected elite from the Land of Fire."

Hidan licked his lips with a smile, "If he's strong, that's perfect for offering to the Evil God. If he's not a Jinchuriki, we don't need to capture him alive, right?"

"Just don't overdo it; at least make sure the body is identifiable." As long as he could exchange it for money, Kakuzu didn't care about Hidan's rituals, and finally gave a perfunctory reminder, "Also, that's no ordinary opponent; if you're not careful, you'll die."

Hidan hoisted his scythe onto his shoulder, "You shouldn't be saying that to me."

...

Ten kilometers was neither near nor far. When Kakuzu and Hidan saw the mountain gate of the Fire Temple, they also saw five people waiting solemnly outside the temple.

Chiriku, Kakashi, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura stood in a row, some serious, some nervous, each with a different expression.

Hidan gripped the handle of his scythe and said nonchalantly, "What's this, a robbery? I'll offer them all to the Evil God."

"Don't be careless, Hidan; these people are not so easy to deal with." Kakuzu knew his stuff; he saw 30 million, 50 million, and 20 million at a glance, but this 100 million wasn't so easy to earn.

"That guy wouldn't be the target you're looking for, would he?" Hidan pointed to the only bald head in the crowd.

"Not only that, but also Copy Ninja Hatake Kakashi, the Second Yellow Flash Uzumaki Naruto, who is also the Nine Tails Jinchuriki. It is said that the other two in their team are also not easy to deal with."

Kakuzu quickly calculated the gains and losses in his mind. He wanted the 100 million, even if he lost two or three hearts for it. Anyway, these people were all high-quality heart sources.

But the problem was that this deal was too risky. A Nine Tails Jinchuriki was already difficult to deal with, and with the addition of the others, he was worried that he would lose everything.

For him, running away was not a shameful thing. After all, you can only make money if you are alive. Didn't he run away very smartly when he encountered Hashirama Senju, the God of Shinobi, back then?

"The Nine Tails is not in our plan, but capturing him can also be considered an indicator, right?" Hidan was not afraid of anything; he would do whatever he wanted until he died.

"Yes, what should we do?"
