Lost Control

Chapter 36 - Hero

"Although it was quite cruel, you saved them," said Hinata.

"It would be boring otherwise!" argued Naruto. Hinata hugged him.

"Thank you… thank you for saving the kids!" Hinata cried with emotion.

"Uhh, I did it because I wanted to, no need to thank me." Naruto hugged her back.

"She has a bad effect on you!"

"You are the one to talk!" Naruto didn't listen to Kurama anymore. Riko hugged her lasting friends too.

"And where is Timo?! And Ayame?!" They sadly looked at her.

"They are in heaven now…" said Kiyo. Riko cried again and Kiyo hugged her.

"Kids! It’s time to go!" said Naruto.

"You are taking them to Konoha?" asked Hinata.

"Right, I didn't think about it… okay, we are going to Konoha…" Naruto frowned. He didn’t want to go there ever again. And he definitely didn’t want to fight with Sasuke. He was pain in the ass. Naruto just wanted to kill for fun. When Naruto left the building, there was ANBU. And journalists.

"Damn, now it is not appropriate for me to be the center of attention!" thought Naruto. Naruto was still covered in his cloak. His Chakra mode was gone.

"Sir, it was you who saved the kids?! Who defeated the dreaded member of Akatsuki?!" asked journalists.

"Can you explain us what happened here?!" asked ANBU.

"ANBU, they can arrest me if they know my identity!" thought Naruto. It was ANBU from Hidden Stone Village, but there was still a risk.

"I’m sorry, I don’t have time for this!" Naruto wanted to left, but ANBU caught him. And they uncovered his face.

"Do I know you?" Naruto seemed familiar to one of them.

"I don’t think so…"

"Can you now explain us what happened?" Naruto didn’t have a choice.

"All right." He couldn’t use Kurama, it would be too suspicious.

"Kakuzu, that member of Akatsuki, illegally sold organs of young children on the black market. I've been watching him for a long time and now was the right time to do something."

"Heh, as if it was thought out.“ Others heard it, but then ignored it. Naruto ignored Kurama.

"Kakuzu eventually committed suicide."

"A feared criminal who thinks only of money and suicide? It’s weird, but we don’t know the reasons. You have to be pretty strong when you made him do it."

"He wasn’t normal, he could have reasons to do it!" said seriously Naruto.

"It doesn’t make sense, the only thing that made him happy was the money, nothing more."

"Don’t talk like you know him!" Naruto said angrily. He was nervous about their suspicious.

"A-alright, and we know he had a business partner, none ninja."

"Kakuzu killed him before all this…" lied Naruto.

"Uhh, why would he do it?"

"For money! He was afraid of losing money because of him!" said seriously Naruto. To convince them.

"That makes sense. So you are the hero who save the kids, how many of them did you manage to save?" Naruto looked behind him. He saw kids hiding behind Hinata.

"Only 7," said sadly Naruto.

"If I got here sooner…"

"I-I’m sorry to hear this. It has to be hard for you. But 7 children owes you their lives. Now they can live normally."

"Hmm, I don’t think so from the trauma they experienced…"

"Ehh, that's clear to me, but let’s be little optimistic." Naruto frowned.

"We’ll take the kids to the orphanage." Naruto looked at him. Orphanage, Naruto never had to go there then why them?

"So I have to become the guardian of those children, at least of the two!" said Naruto. Although he’s evil and possessed, he still has weakness for kids. Because of his past, which he still remembers...

"Are you sure? We don’t even know your name."

"Shit," Naruto thought. But if they don’t know his face then it’ll be alright to give them his true name.

"Uzumaki… Naruto." Everyone looked at him.

"I’m so stupid…" thought Naruto.

"That’s your name. Then there’s no problem with the adoption. What children do you want?" He asked.

"He doesn’t know me?! Great!" smirked Naruto.

"Jinchuurikis aren’t as famous as I thought!" thought Naruto.

"But they should be, because of us!"

"No one cares…" Kurama frowned.
