The Hokage looked at them closely. Yes, it seemed that the little thing had wings. Very ingenious. “Fly puppets…. What in the world can you do with them?”
Naruto flashed a huge smile. “Tag you with a mild poison. Pretty good, huh?”
Sarutobi needed to put some necessary fear into the boy. “Naruto, I could have the ANBU arrest you for attempting to kill me….”
Naruto smiled and then laughed. “I’m not a ninja, remember, Old Man? The ANBU can’t do anything to a civilian….”
The Hokage knew that was true. That provision had been eked out during the First Hokage’s tenure as a means of keeping the Hokage’s personal power under control.
“Then I can call the Police.”
“They can’t investigate crimes committed inside ninja buildings, Old Man. I started reading a lot of scrolls since no one would teach me anything. There are lots of interesting loopholes if you go looking for them.”
The boy was telling the truth. Civilians were almost never allowed into ninja buildings, which was the reason why the Police were kept out by statute.
This whole mess was just as glaring a hole as the rules keeping Naruto out of school. Clever boy.
