One morning Naruto was walking to the nearest store, suddenly he accidentally heard a conversation between two people.
"You heard the whole Uchiha clan was killed, only one person survived"
Hearing this, the blonde changed his plans and went to the Uchiha clan to confirm what he heard, after traveling he noticed that everything was covered with tape.
"So it's true. Itachi ..."
Naruto remembered the last conversation with Itachi, the blonde came home, completely forgetting about shopping.
"Naruto-kun, where are you shopping?"
"I forgot"
"Really, you forgot two things?" she asked shaking her head
"Listen Kuriko-chan, Uchiha clan was murdered only one person survived"
The brunette's eyes widened at the news
"Really?"
"Yes, as you are related to them I guess you should know that"
"Who could do something like this?"
"I think Itachi"
"What, but why isn't that your friend?"
"Yes, recently I had a conversation with him, possibly the Uchiha clan tried something wrong and Itachi sacrificed himself to protect the village," Naruto said.
"I can't even imagine what she must be feeling right now," Kuriko added
"Do you want to go to the funeral?"
Kuriko thought about the blonde's question for a moment, and finally made a decision.
"Yes, I think I should have come there was no there was also the Uchiha clan blood in me"
Two days later, the Uchiha clan's funeral was held, Naruto accompanied Kuriko to the ceremony, looked at Itachi's younger brother standing at his parents' grave.
"So you did decide to come after all"
Hearing the familiar voice of Naruto and Kuriko, they turned to see the Hokage.
"Jiji"
"I thought that since this clan's blood flows in my veins, I should come in"
"I'm glad you approach it like this"
"However, I still don't want to reveal my true heritage especially to this village," she said seriously
"Of course you have my word that only the three of us and Kakashi will know the truth about your true origin"
"Thank you Hokage-sama"
Hiruzen escorted a piece of both genin away, once they were far enough away from the other people, Naruto asked an unusual question.
"Ne Jiji, where is Itachi?"
"I think as his friend you know the truth, so I see no reason to lie to you after the Uchiha clan incident Itachi decided to leave the village and join a dangerous organization as my spy."
"I understand, thanks for telling me goodbye"
Naruto and Kuriko returned home while Hiruzen went to his office
