Naruto clenched his fists as he watched Inoichi's reaction. "No one here would sell
anything if I looked like… myself, No one in this village sees
as a human but as a demon, how can they possibly sell
sothing?"
He said in a low voice. "I know Sasuke gets respect, people even offer him discounts, so I thought… maybe if I looked like him, they'd treat
differently."
Just then, a nearby stall owner spotted Naruto and yelled, "Hey, you! You're not welco here! Get lost!"
The shout drew the attention of other villagers and custors in the vicinity, who turned to glare at him with the sa disdain. A few others began muttering and openly expressing their displeasure.
"Go ho, demon!" one stall owner barked.
"You're not wanted here," another spat.
Naruto stood in silence, unmoved by their hatred. He had faced this animosity his entire life, so the hostility no longer surprised him. But Ino and Inoichi weren't as accustod to it, and their expressions reflected shock.
Inoichi knows that villagers don't welco Naruto for their stores and has resentnt towards Naruto, but he didn't know that it has reached to this extent.
Ino, unsettled, turned to Naruto, trying to make sense of the scene. "What did you do to make everyone hate you so much?"
Naruto looked at her, his voice distant. "I didn't do anything. They've always been like this to
for a different reason which I got to know recently."
Ino furrowed her brow, her curiosity intensifying. "Then what's the reason? Why would they treat you like that?"
Naruto's eyes t hers, a faint bitterness flickering within them. "It's been this way since I was born. They don't see
as human… They see
as I am a demon."
Ino's eyes widened, taken aback by the harshness of his words. She opened her mouth to ask more, but Naruto was already looking toward Inoichi.
"Do you really want to know the truth, Ino?" Naruto asked, his gaze turning to Ino again.
Ino nodded head without hesitation saying "yes
