Kasi again closed his eyes. If it weren't for the children in this village, he knew exactly what he would have done. Anyone who had knowingly hurt Naruto… anyone who had enjoyed seeing him suffer… they would've been gone by now. Erased. He wouldn't have lost a single night's sleep over it.
But children were different — untouched by the politics and may touched by the poison of the adults more or less. Children could still grow,Still change. That was the only reason many people here were still breathing.
His thoughts drifted again to the memories of that other world, the canon one he had seen. He remembered how Sakura treated Naruto there… and then compared it to what he had already seen in his own world.
Nothing had changed.
Naruto had been loud, hyperactive, and yes, a bit annoying at times — asking for dates, shouting, pulling stupid stunts. But he didn't deserve the kind of beating Sakura gave him, not in that world and not here. And the fact that everyone brushed it off as "normal" only made Kasi grit his teeth harder.
Still… she was just a kid here. A loudmouth with no awareness, copying what others did without understanding why. Naruto too was still young — silly, a little dramatic, always looking for attention. Kids being kids.
That was the only reason Kasi didn't outright hate that pink-haired banshee.
And then… his thoughts went to Kushina. His sister-in-law, his sister in everything but blood.
If she had seen Naruto like this… neglected, lonely, beaten down… she would have torn this village apart. Every stone. Every street. She wouldn't have waited. She wouldn't have tolerated excuses or politics. Kasi felt the heat of that imagined fury, and a small shiver ran through him. She had always been that fearless, fiery heart — and seeing her son suffer would have brought out the rage she carried inside her. May be god would forgive them but he knew his sister-in-law would not
Kasi let out a slow breath through his nose.
"I swear… this village is filled with idiots," he muttered to himself, though his tone held a tired kind of amusement under the frustration. He looked down at the village spreading beneath him, looking almost peaceful.
Almost.
Kasi knew better.
The adults had already shown their true faces — the elders, the council, the civilians whispering smiles in front of the Hokage and spitting hatred behind closed doors. Danzo with his Root. Koharu and Homura with their stubbornness. Hiruzen with his guilt and excuses. And all of them thinking they knew what was best for Naruto.
They didn't.
Not anymore.
Kasi's eyes sharpened, and he straightened slightly.
First things first — reclaim what belonged to the Namikaze and Uzumaki. The property, the wealth. Then his identity sole heir of minato namikaze, and kushina uzumaki.
Then… the elders.
Danzo.
Koharu.
Homura.
And even Hiruzen, if he kept pretending ignorance.
Kasi had no intention of letting any of them go. he might tolarate them for now for naruto future but forgive them. kasi started laugh coldly
He wasn't Minato. he was famous not because of his strength, which was only quasi-kage level during war but because of his brutality towards foes.
He wasn't the happy-go-lucky type who forgave everything.
