[ Naruto's POV ]

I’ve never been one to dwell on things. Normally, I just roll with the punches life throws at me and keep pushing forward. But discovering my Uzumaki clan heritage? That threw me for a loop.

Suddenly, the dream of becoming Hokage didn't burn as brightly.

Growing up as an orphaned outcast, wanting to become Hokage made sense.

It was more than a goal; it was a statement. I wanted to prove everyone wrong, to transform from the village reject into its most beloved leader.

It was my identity—my drive.

Yet, now that I've learned about the Uzumaki clan, it's like I've been caught in a new current.

This identity, this history, this legacy—it’s something tangible, something that was part of me long before I knew it.

It’s a badge of honor I wear proudly, unlike the Hokage title, which feels like a distant dream.

As these thoughts swirled in my head, pushing the dream of being Hokage to the background, my new goal became clear: to become strong enough to protect those I love and uphold the Uzumaki name.

"Naruto-kun, I know this is hard to hear... but you are not responsible for the past. Your family’s history... it doesn’t define who you are," Hinata said, her voice gentle, trying to offer comfort.

I turned to look at her, appreciating her kindness but feeling a deep connection to my heritage.

The Uzumaki—it’s not just about me.

It's about all of them, the ones who came before me.

I can’t change the past, I can't bring them back, but I can make sure they’re remembered with honor.

I forced a smile, trying to show Hinata I was okay, trying to keep up my usual spirited front.

Hinata's voice was soft, barely above a whisper as she said, "It's okay to feel upset, Naruto-kun. It's a big part of your history. But remember, you have friends here... and we... I care about you for who you are now."

I just nodded.

I appreciated her words, her support, but deep down, I was wrestling with a whirlwind of emotions.

I had every right to be upset about my family's past, about their disappearance from history.

But that didn't mean I was going to sit back and cry about it.

I was determined to honor their legacy with every fiber of my being, through my actions, my jutsu, and my mark on history.

Feeling a surge of resolve, my chest puffed up with pride.

This was my new dream—making a mark on history so profound that the Uzumaki name would never be forgotten.

"Thanks, Hinata," I said, my voice gaining strength. "But you know what? Being an Uzumaki, honoring them—it’s a part of who I am now. And that’s not something I want to ignore. It’s something I want to shout about, to celebrate! I can’t change the past, but I can definitely shape the future. And hey, maybe that future still has a spot for a Hokage who’s proudly Uzumaki."
