I am the most popular character in Naruto!

"By the way! Chiaki, why don't you and Mirai have a child?"

"With Orochimaru's abilities, getting two girls to have children wouldn't be a difficult task, would it?"

"After having children, you should start thinking about the future more carefully!"

"puff--"

Naruto and Sakura, who were drinking water, spat it out. Yamato and Sai's expressions changed drastically, and they immediately dragged Naruto and Sakura away from where they were, to avoid being attacked indiscriminately by the enraged Chiaki.

Minato also showed a shocked expression, took two steps back, and then hesitantly took one step forward.

That means Kushina was pregnant with Miko Namikaze, otherwise...

"Ku...Kuku...Kushina, what are you saying?!"

In the future, the entire company turned red, steam rose from the top of their heads, and they kept pushing up their big red-framed glasses, occasionally looking up at Qianqiu, and then suddenly looking down again.

Qianqiu, on the other hand, seemed much calmer, stroking his chin as he considered the matter.

It seems that, perhaps, Aunt Snake can indeed make two girls have children.

If all else fails, I can always find a way to turn back into a boy.

or……

Want to experience what it's like to be a mother? And have your future child be a boy?

Chiaki's gaze fell on Mirai. Mirai felt Chiaki's attention and became extremely agitated, so she ran away immediately.

"Hehe, if Chiaki has a child, then I'll be the child's godmother!"

Kushina chuckled, completely oblivious to the eerie atmosphere, and began to fantasize about what Chiaki and their future child would look like.

Minato felt quite embarrassed by his wife's innocent look. He apologized softly to Chiaki, who shook her head, seemingly seriously considering the possibility of having a child.

"Hey... Chiaki, you're not serious, are you?"

Minato looked at Chiaki with concern. The birth of a child by the Goddess of Life was something that could cause an uproar in the ninja world.

"Hmm... Kushina is right, let's go with the future."

Chiaki nodded, responding to Minato with a double entendre, her face beaming with a smile, "If there's an opportunity in the future."

Minato felt a little relieved and was about to say something when Yamato, who had just escaped, suddenly turned back and said to Chiaki, "Goddess, we urgently need help!"

Chapter 710 Shikamaru and Asuma

"Asuma!"

"calm!"

"Asuma!!!"

Shikamaru blocked Asuma's path, gritting his teeth and roaring, "What the hell are you doing causing trouble here? Will you revive them?!"

"How the hell am I supposed to stay calm?"

"How do I calm down? Tell me!"

Asuma charged forward in a rage, and Choji tried his best to hold him around the waist from behind, but Asuma's strength was undeniable, and Choji, without using ninjutsu, couldn't stop the furious Asuma at all.

He was like a raging bull, wanting to destroy everything in his path.

"Secret Technique! Shadow Imitation Technique!"

Shikamaru couldn't take it anymore, so he stood back and formed a hand seal.

The shadow beneath his feet surged rapidly, directly controlling Asma and rendering him unable to move.

Shikamaru, who had used Shadow Imitation Technique to catch Asuma, breathed a sigh of relief and said to Ino, who was standing to the side looking bewildered:

"Ino! Immediately send a support request to the nearest squad!"

"Yes!"

Ino then realized what was happening and quickly nodded to begin preparing the Ninja Hawk.

"Choji, hold Asuma tight!"

Shikamaru then said to Choji, who mustered his courage and replied, "Leave it to me!"

Although Asuma was just a supporting teacher to the Ino-Shika-Cho trio on a regular basis and didn't really teach them much.

However, he is also a particularly important member of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio.

"Let go! I don't want you to get hurt!"

Asuma roared with bloodshot eyes, his vision filled with the devastation of the Fire Temple. He also discovered the marks and chakra left by the thieves who destroyed the Fire Temple, clearly an attempt to lure the investigators to their deaths.

For Shikamaru, this was a classic case of bait being too obvious and a trap being too easy to fall into.

It turns out.

There is.

Asuma, who had served as one of the Twelve Guardian Ninjas for many years and had a good relationship with the monks of the Fire Temple, could not tolerate the arrogant behavior of his brothers who had all died and who left behind information to invite others to their door.

He was determined to go up there and make that murderer pay for his crime!

As for the difference in strength?

Sorry, that's not within his consideration!

This is an expression of being carried away by emotions, and it's also the reason why Hiruzen Sarutobi insisted on sending Asuma to the Fire Temple for a period of quiet reflection.

Asuma's emotions fluctuate too much, and he's too shallow; he's not really suited to be Hokage.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi probably didn't expect that after meditating in the Fire Temple, a place full of masculine energy, Asuma, despite becoming more composed, still hadn't lost his passion.

"Injured? Aren't you underestimating us?"

Shikamaru gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Asuma, can't you consider your strength before you do anything?"

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. You don't even know how strong we are, yet you dare to spout such nonsense?"

"How strong can you be? You're just three special Jonin!"

Asuma was still emotionally charged and started yelling at Shikamaru, "I'm your teacher! Let me go right now!"

"Looks like we still have to beat them up."

Shikamaru shook his head, and Asuma, who was using the Shadow Imitation Technique, also shook his head.

"Come on, Choji, give the teacher something to do!"

Shikamaru gestured to Choji, who grinned sheepishly and agreed, "Okay!"

"Ninja Art! Partial Expansion Technique!"

boom!

Choji's hand, which was holding Asuma, suddenly swelled and grew larger, covering Asuma's entire body except for his head.

Shikamaru sneered and released his Shadow Imitation Technique, then said to Asuma, whose face was flushed red from being held by Choji, "Asuma, if you can escape from Choji, I'll let you do whatever you want with me."

"If you can't, then listen to me obediently."

"Screw you, Shikamaru!"

Asma struggled angrily: "Is this how you treat your teacher? This is insubordination!"

"I'm sorry, I only know that I can do whatever it takes to complete a mission."

Shikamaru picked at his ear and said to Choji, "Choji, hold on tight. If Asuma gets away, you won't get any food today."

"!!!"

Choji's eyes widened, and he grabbed his other hand. "I absolutely won't let you get away, Asuma-sensei!"

"Cough cough cough... Choji, have you forgotten the barbecue I treated you to...?"

Asuma felt Choji's pressure on his body. He tried to pull his hand away and use the Stand Technique to leave, but he couldn't.

Choji's palms were quite thick and rough, and he couldn't move at all when Choji held them in his hands.

Asuma is the traditional type of combat ninja, proficient in both hand-to-hand combat and ninjutsu, but without any particular specialty.

His overall strength is very strong, reaching the standard of an elite Jonin, but his lack of specialization means that he lacks his own unique characteristics.

In the original work, what makes him memorable to the audience is his large beard, his cool way of lighting a cigarette, and his beautiful wife.

It was precisely because Asuma did not have any outstanding strengths, but had a solid foundation, that he was assigned to be the teacher of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, who already possessed a large number of family-inherited secret techniques.

When the Ino-Shika-Cho trio was weak, he could still use his strength to bully them.

But now, everyone's strength is about the same. With so many years of accumulation, the strongest Choji is about to break through to the Jonin level, and Shikamaru and Ino have also become Special Jonin. The three Special Jonin with secret techniques can even find a way to take down a Kage.

Asuma, a mere elite Jonin, was tricked by Shikamaru into gaining the upper hand. How could he possibly escape from the clutches of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio?

Shikamaru has many backup plans. Having Choji capture Asuma is just one of them. He also has Ino and himself to prepare for the future.

Ok……

In Team 10, Asuma is not the core member; their core member is always Shikamaru.

In daily missions and battles, Asuma is just a team leader, but when problems arise and orders need to be given, Shikamaru is the absolute core of the team, without any controversy.

After struggling for a while without being able to get off, Asuma gave up and said to Shikamaru, "Alright, put me down now, let's talk."

Shikamaru glanced at him and nodded to Choji.

Choji released Asuma with a smug look on his face, thinking that dinner was probably all set for him.

But the next second, Shikamaru's words caused Choji and Asuma to fall into the abyss at the same time.

"Choji, you let Asuma get away. Dinner is on the house."

"Asma, I saw through your movements. Look at what's under your feet."

Asuma, who had tried to escape after being released by Choji, looked down and froze.

"Shadow Binding Technique... When did you learn that, kid?!"
