Chapter 368: Chapter 365: Liberation
The situation with Sumire at one time came in very handy. Naruto had long planned to give her under Shizune's wing and raise this girl to be a worthy assistant. Unlike the current Sarada, Sumire had all the qualities of an adult woman, and for her age, this is a very useful skill. Even now, she will already be able to show her potential, as soon as she starts to learn.
As for the relationship with her, after the conquest, Naruto did not really develop them, because he got everything he wanted the first time. In fact, after that time, Sumire could hardly open up even more. Any special perversions with her can no longer be cranked out. You can think of them, but it doesn't make much sense. Naruto considered the matter closed from that very day. Although it was still worth giving her time, he had not done this for a long time and simply used her patience. There was no reason to strive for more - there was too much work and unique kunoichi ahead. Perhaps she will find a position, but this is not so important.
All in all, the only thing the Hokage could single out of the unfinished business was Ino, with a little game planned with her son. Otherwise, he was going to close his eyes to the past and not return to it. Someone will be able to use in the Residence and develop their skills, and nothing more.
It's time to move forward to new achievements. Bored things should be put aside and returned to them only out of necessity. If you can not get at least some emotions from the past, it remained only to leave it.
Naruto never went against himself. Even if his ego boasted great arrogance and pride, he was not deceived and did not abandon his nature. Man is like this - greed guides him, and emotions bring feelings of worth. Only fools whose eyes are clouded by naive virtues try their best to be "worthy" and dedicate themselves to what drags them down. Such people do not have the courage to admit that their wife is bored with them or their mistress no longer brings the same sensations. Day in and day out, they drown themselves until they end up as an insignificant version of their past self. Almost like the old Naruto Uzumaki, having achieved a dream and rooted to a chair. Rusty and pitiful, living by the rules of the weak...
You can't move forward if you don't have a goal, something that makes you feel alive.
Naruto didn't indulge in such meaningless things. Even if his actions might seem insensitive, they were not lying to others or to himself. Recognizing your essence and not running from your own demons is what most people in this world lack. Human nature is such that something from outside always presses on them. Unfortunately, they ignore the fact that they themselves are this world. Their perception is dulled, they look for mistakes and succumb to vices, forgetting that all the bad is hidden inside them.
The choice is simple: dry up from boredom and suffer, or drop everything and move forward, egocentrically rejecting all risk and other people's values.
Naruto acknowledged his selfishness and pettiness. Even if things bored him, he was not going to leave them. And even more so, he would not tolerate that some pathetic person dared to dissolve his hands on his good. It was for this reason that he considered it his duty to sometimes "trample his territory" so that the females would not have a problematic response towards the Master.
Even if the dragon did not use his wealth and wanted more, he would never allow even a grain of gold to be dared to be taken from him. So was Naruto.
"Ha-ah-ah-ah…" With a long and drawn-out exhalation, he seemed to have cleansed himself. This moment of reflection felt like a real release. Although I accepted myself, today I had to make this difficult decision. The reality is that we need to move forward. The Hokage did not strive for peace and quiet, he wanted new sensations, a sense of completeness - a taste of true life.
Thus, having laid everything out with a cool head, Naruto put an end to his past and fixed his eyes on the future. There are still too many interesting things ahead, and past trophies have a place on the shelf.
Yes, it will happen to everyone. Is it bad? Perhaps for some it looks exactly like this. Romance, love, other people's feelings and their acceptance... Naruto has never been like this. That is why he acted in different ways: he hooked someone up for sex, someone simply broke and humiliated. Someone just fell in love or saw him as a strong male.
But do not deceive yourself, because accepting the truth is much easier than continuing to run away. There is no meaning in life if there is no peace and equality in a person.
For someone, the fact that passers-by are staring at his girlfriend is completely normal. Someone is even ready to accept the situation when she makes eyes at others. But, the truth is that they are only afraid to admit their powerlessness and amuse themselves with illusory reasons to justify their weakness, and fear will come face to face with the cruel answer of reality. The weak would rather call themselves an alpha with a beauty at hand than a pitiful selfish coward, unable to bring nonentities to their knees.
But would a dragon allow a despicable mortal to touch his property? The answer is obvious. If there are weaklings who are ready to put up with the fact that his woman is defiled by other people's views, then this is their truth. The inability to protect what is yours, but strive to get it - in the spirit of people who greedily thirst to satisfy their inferiority.
- Hmm...
Naruto couldn't help but chuckle. His thoughts had gone too far... Yet, unlike all dragons, he did not hide in a cave, but rather would prefer to live on a mountain, in full view and tempt them with his riches. Those who had the courage to look at this glittering mountain of treasures would give up their eyes in punishment. This is what happens when a mortal has the courage to look at the sun.
Relaxing, the Hokage nodded.
"Well, I finally finished it… It should have been done a long time ago. I don't want to waste any time. I already have a lot of work on my nose, there was still not enough time to waste on all sorts of nonsense ...
With a cynical smirk, he pushed his thoughts to the back of his mind and returned to the present.
The most magnificent Hokage in the world was destined by fate to go only forward!
Laughing wickedly, he digressed...
