Konoha: Starting with a sign-in for Hashirama cells

"Naruto-kun, why don't you continue? I'm unconscious, you can easily wake me up..." Hinata mumbled, covering her face with the blanket.

"Who said we didn't continue? We've already done it." Naruto put down his novel and smiled.

"!?" Hinata.

"What! It's already done!" Hinata exclaimed in disbelief, peeking out from under the covers. "Then why didn't I feel anything? It should have hurt a lot the first time!"

“People’s physical constitutions are not the same. You must be one of the few who don’t experience pain,” Naruto said with a smile.

"Is that so?" Hinata asked, confused.

Suddenly, Hinata's expression froze. She puffed out her cheeks and scolded, "You lied to me again! I didn't do anything. My cells all told me I'm still a virgin..."

"Just kidding, to lighten the mood," Naruto said with a laugh.

"I didn't expect you to be so bold as to take the initiative to come to me. Luckily you were unconscious, otherwise I really would have had a hard time controlling myself."

Hinata blushed and shrank back under the covers. After a while, she whispered.

"What's this talk about holding back? I'm your person, and I'll take this step sooner or later. If you want to, no, no..."

"No need to endure it..."

"I am ready anytime, anywhere, and I am prepared."

Naruto's breath hitched, he rolled over, and drew circles on the tatami mat with his finger: "Can you please stop tempting me? I can't take it!"

"I will not go back on my promise, unless it is an enemy or an adversary, then that's a different story."

"But, you must feel really bad if you can't vent your frustrations?" Hinata asked shyly.

"Um, um, I also want to get closer to you, but if that makes you uncomfortable, I..."

“You’re still young.” Naruto swallowed hard, his mouth dry, and chuckled, “Not long. In about two years, after we get married, I won’t hold back.”

After a moment of silence, suddenly, the blanket was pulled back, and Hinata sat on Naruto's waist.

The pajamas were loose and baggy.

"I've grown up."

Naruto's eyes were bloodshot as he struggled to look away: "Don't do this. Do you think I used a lot of willpower to endure this?"

Hinata cupped Naruto's face in her hands, straightening it so that Naruto's gaze would fall on her. Her face flushed red, and she said in a trembling voice.

"If you really like me, don't hold back. I'm here, you can do whatever you want."

Naruto's breathing was rapid, and his eyes flashed with obvious, intense struggle: "What about your dad..."

"If we don't let him know, everything will be fine, right? This is our secret, we won't tell anyone." Hinata was so shy she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it.

But he gritted his teeth and insisted on speaking.

If Naruto could endure this, he would start to doubt whether he was even a man.

He sighed, casting aside reason and his promise, and opened his arms to pull Hinata into a tight embrace.

Four minutes later.

This is just the prelude, not the main event yet.

Hinata was so shy that she was practically bursting with embarrassment. Her head was steaming, and she was so dizzy that she fainted.

Upon realizing that Hinata had stopped moving, Naruto, who had regained some composure, said helplessly, "I knew this would happen."

For both him and Hinata, this was an incredibly important first time; how could it be done while Hinata was unconscious?

"It's still too early. We need to wait until Hinata's tolerance is higher before..."

Thinking this, Naruto prepared to use Yin-Yang Release to create a block of ice to cool himself down and regain his composure.

Hinata, who had been unconscious for less than half a minute, suddenly woke up with her eyelids twitching.

"Uh, are you alright?" Naruto.

"It works..." Hinata didn't dare look at Naruto, burying her head on Naruto's shoulder and whispering.

"I had my cells extract chakra to stimulate my heart and brain after I fell into a coma, so as to wake me up."

Naruto was startled: "Heart? Brain? Hey! Be careful!"

"It was stimulation within safe limits, so it's fine," Hinata said.

Naruto activated his X-ray vision, scanning Hinata's heart and brain. He found no damage, but he still couldn't rest easy: "Let's forget it. If something goes wrong while you're doing this..."

"It's alright, I assure you, the cells were operating under the premise of ensuring safety," Hinata said.

“Even if you say that…” Naruto remained silent.

After a while.

"Shall we continue?" Naruto asked tentatively.

Hinata nodded slightly and made a soft "hmm" sound through her nose in response.

"Here's the receipt, please keep it safe. Welcome to visit us again," the signboard girl said with a smile.

I watched as a man and a woman, clearly a couple, cuddled together, walked away, their figures gradually disappearing into the distance.

Unable to suppress her gossipy nature, she turned to her colleague and said, "Is it them? They've been cooped up in their room for four days, doing *that* the whole time?"

"The room number is 106, right? I heard a lot of noise when I was cleaning the room next door!"

"It's nice to be young."

"It was too good for them. For four days, they didn't eat, drink, or go out. If I hadn't been able to hear their voices, I would have thought something had happened to them."

"Looking at how energetic he is, he doesn't seem like he hasn't eaten."

"Is it that one?"

"Which one?"

"Ninja, oh ninja."

"Ninjas? That explains their superhuman physical strength."

the other side.

Instead of using the Flying Thunder God Technique, Naruto and Hinata walked on foot, looking like a newlywed couple on their honeymoon.

I would stroll around, stopping to watch interesting street performances or beautiful scenery.

In relationships, one achieves a higher level of understanding and growth through honest and practical experiences.

Distance no longer exists.

Mind and body are completely connected.

The most obvious sign is that Hinata is still easily embarrassed, but she no longer faints so easily, and her resistance to embarrassment has increased.

It wasn't outwardly apparent, but the pressure and gloom that lingered in Naruto's heart had dissipated considerably.

“Love, huh.” Kaguya, who had witnessed the whole thing, couldn’t help but say.

"If you don't want to get hurt or be betrayed, take my advice: leave her, leave your parents, and leave that village."

"Love is so cheap that it's the least worthwhile thing to believe in."

Betrayal, move one.

He was betrayed by the emperor and his two sons.

These experiences made Kaguya disbelieve in love.

Naruto, who understood all this, ignored Kaguya.

"Excuse me, hello, do you have any wishes you'd like to have fulfilled?"

"I'm not a scammer, I don't want your money, believe it or not."

Naruto vaguely heard this conversation coming from afar and turned around to look.

Chapter 232 Black Zetsu’s Shrine

"What's wrong? Those two?" Hinata asked, puzzled, after turning off her Byakugan and not being able to see anything wrong.

"No, I'm just a little bothered by what they said," Naruto said.

"Granting wishes? That's definitely a lie," Hinata said. "Listen, they're even bringing up the goddess."

“In poor and difficult places, there are often tricks like this, where people use the name of God to cheat others out of food, drink and money.”

“When I went to the Land of Wind to carry out an assassination mission, I encountered the local beliefs. Desert, water, storms, wealth, everything can be regarded as a god.”

“I don’t pay much attention to beliefs that happen elsewhere; most of them are fake,” Naruto said. “But this is the Land of Hot Springs.”

“A man named Hidan once walked out of Yugakure. Because of his faith and the transformation he underwent, he gained immortality.”

"The kind of person whose head is removed from their neck and they still don't die."

"Of course, I'm not interested in any faith, nor in this person, but in another being possessing him, Black Zetsu, do you remember him?"

Hinata nodded.

How could she not remember? That was something she and Ino had worked together to create, a unique and powerful weapon.

"You mean, the goddess those two were talking about is Black Zetsu!" Hinata's eyes widened.

“It’s not impossible.” Naruto smiled slightly. “We’ll know if we look at their memories.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Naruto formed a hand seal and used the power of his Rinnegan to activate a genjutsu, easily controlling everyone present.

He stepped out of the shadows, approached the two people, placed his hands on their heads, and began to read their memories.

Seeing Naruto's brow furrow slightly, Hinata separated his hands from their heads and couldn't help but ask, "How is it?"

"The Dream God, their faith is in the Dream God," Naruto said. "A god who can give people sweet dreams."

"Write down your requirements beforehand, and you can earn the opportunity to dream based on your contributions. It can be money or people."

"Is it related to that Black Zetsu?" Hinata asked.

“They haven’t seen Black Zetsu in their memories,” Naruto said. “What truly makes these people dream is the priestess.”
