Konoha: I, Naruto, will eat the Forest-Forest Fruit!

"The date for Danzo's execution has been set."

"Yes, maximizing profits is the key."

Naruto was forcibly dragged away by Tsunade.

"Lady Tsunade, mind your image!"

"dolphin~"

"It's okay, just mute it. There's no one else here."

"Hmm... okay~"

......

After a long while, Naruto sat down opposite him and helplessly washed his face.

"What's wrong?"

"Generally speaking, you won't call me over unless it's something important."

Tsunade rested her chin on her hand and chuckled, saying, "Can't I call you if there's nothing wrong?"

"Alright, there is something I need you to do, in the name of Team 7, and also in the name of Konoha."

Shizune also placed a scroll in front of Naruto.

"Snow Country?"

"Not bad, an A-level mission: escort the princess of the Snow Kingdom back to her country."

"Furthermore, the Land of Snow has not yet agreed to the five principles of the peace conference."

"You'll need to go there yourself... They seem very confident in their chakra armor. I think you'll be interested in this combination of technology and ninjutsu."

Upon hearing this, Naruto nodded and put down the piglet in his arms.

"Alright, I'll go do this myself."

"I'm sorry, Naruto-sama, but everyone has been busy with missions lately... so I have to ask you for help."

Shizune took Tun Tun and said with a slight apology.

"I'm enough on my own."

......

Overcast, light rain, battlefield.

"We...have no way out."

"This journey... is probably impossible to complete."

"That's enough... Give up."

Naruto sat in the movie theater, watching Kazahana Koyuki on the screen slowly stand up.

"We still have hope... I firmly believe it..."

The story was nearing its end, so Naruto left early.

Outside the movie theater, looking at the wooden doors of the theater, he slowly raised his head.

Tread-tap-

The sound of horses' hooves grew closer.

"Hiss~!"

The white horse leaped over the fence and was about to crash into Naruto.

Suddenly, the white horse stopped, and the woman on its back flew off.

It drew a beautiful arc above Naruto's head.

"ah--"

With a "thump," he fell down at Naruto's feet.

"you!"

After the woman groaned in pain, she looked up and saw Naruto standing in front of the horse.

At that moment, the wooden gate of the horse farm opened, and countless samurai on horseback poured out, surrounding Kazaka Koyuki and Naruto.

This mission is to escort Kazeka Koyuki back to the Snow Country.

The Land of Snow is very far from the Land of Fire, and Naruto came here to check if the entrance to the Pure Land is in the Land of Snow.

"Hello, I am San Taifu, the one who initiated this mission."

Naruto nodded slightly and looked at Fuuka Koyuki.

"Are you kidding me?!"

"Only a fool would go to the Land of Snow!"

Clearly, Kazama Koyuki, who had been captured and brought back, was still somewhat resentful.

"Don't you want to see spring in the land of snow?"

Naruto asked a question, then activated his Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan.

"Don't worry, I will help you reclaim the Snow Kingdom, which is also the purpose of my visit. Your uncle is not very cooperative, and I need a cooperative ruler."

"Impossible! You have no idea how powerful they are. If you don't resist, you won't die!"

Upon hearing about spring in the Land of Snow, Kazeka Koyuki was lost in memories.

But soon, she looked terrified and immediately retorted.

"Get some sleep first, you'll understand on the way."

Kazakura Koyuki looked at Naruto with a wary expression.

But the next moment, after Naruto's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan spun, she fell asleep instantly.

Carrying Kazeka and Koyuki on his back, Naruto looked at Santayu and the old director.

"Let's go."

After saying that, before anyone could react, he carried Feng Hua Xiaoxue onto the boat.

I glanced at the hexagonal crystal on her snow-white neck.

"This must be the key to that device?"

Shaking his head, Naruto went up to the deck. The crew members had already boarded the ship one after another. Santayu wanted to say something, but Naruto waved his hand.

"The Snow Country rejected the Five Principles of Peace. My purpose in coming here this time is to interfere in the internal affairs of the Snow Country under the guise of a mission."

"You don't need to explain, just assure me that the future Snow Country will be an obedient nation."

"Many of the technologies of your Land of Snow have a great impact on the ninja world, which is one of the reasons why I came here in person."

After a moment of silence, Santayu knelt before Naruto.

"I know you...you are Naruto-sama of Konoha!"

"I never expected you to take on this mission yourself... Thank goodness! The Land of Snow is saved!"

Naruto helped him up, shook his head and smiled, "I don't care how your princess greets you, but you don't need to kneel before me."

As he spoke, Naruto extended his hand.

San Taifu was stunned for a while before reaching out to shake hands with Naruto.

"It's a pleasure working with you."

......

The Land of Snow.

"It seems we can confirm it now: Fuji Fuuka no Yuki is indeed Fuuka no Yuki."

"No wonder it took us ten years of continuous searching to find it."

"It's not difficult to deal with a single young girl."

"It seems that Konoha ninjas are serving as Koyuki's bodyguards."

Feng Hua Nu Tao sneered, "Another Konoha ninja? How interesting."

"Those useless ninjas have been holding some kind of peace conference lately... Ignore them, go and bring Yuki back."

......

The next day.

Feng Hua Xiaoxue is having the dreams she had as a child.

Her long eyelashes fluttered, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

Looking at the swaying ceiling, he suddenly sat up.

"woke up?"

"You...a Konoha ninja!"

Feng Hua Xiaoxue was both angry and panicked.

"You have no idea how terrifying they are!"

Naruto thought for a moment, then said, "You mean strength?"

"We'll all die!"

"Don't get excited."

"Those people left a deep shadow on your mind back then, which subconsciously made you invincible towards them."

"Princess Snow, I already know what happened back then."

"I will help you reclaim the Snow Country, please give me some confidence, okay?"

Naruto chuckled and offered a word of comfort.

Kazakura Koyuki stared blankly at Naruto's gentle smile for a moment before turning her head away.

"I can't do anything, all I can do is act."

"After we help you reclaim the Snow Kingdom, you will need to cooperate with us."

"If you can reclaim the Land of Snow, I'll do anything you ask!"

Feng Hua Xiaoxue glared at him fiercely.

Then, he lay back down on the bed, looked at the swaying ceiling, and said:

"You really will die...and then you'll all die one by one in front of me..."

Naruto didn't say much, he just pulled her up and walked towards the door.

"What...what are you going to do?!"

"arrive."

After walking onto the deck with Feng Hua Xiaoxue, they saw that the ship's path was blocked by an iceberg.

The director of the crew was cheering, but Feng Hua Xiaoxue's pupils suddenly contracted as images from the depths of her memory kept surfacing.

Snapped--

Naruto patted her on the shoulder.

Feng Hua Xiaoxue turned around with a look of horror on her face.

"Calm down, you'll soon find out whether what I'm saying is true or false."

"You're insane!"

"What are you trying to do?!"

Feng Hua Xiaoxue screamed and her heels left the ground.

The next moment, before she could speak, the wind filled her mouth.

"I don't mind you acting; becoming an actor is your dream, but you are the heir to the Snow Kingdom."

"The peace conference in Konoha was not held for nothing. I need the Land of Snow to be the first small country to stand on Konoha's side."

"To encourage other small countries to join the Ninja World Community."

"The technology of the Land of Snow is useful to the ninja world, and the Land of Snow only recognizes you."

"I don't want to resort to other methods, so just be a good boy and do as I say."

Having said that, Naruto had already brought Kazahana Koyuki to the Icelandic island.

Fuuka Koyuki remained silent, processing Naruto's words.

She wasn't completely oblivious to what was happening around her, and the Third Master would occasionally nag her about it.

"You're Naruto Uzumaki...right?"

Feng Hua Xiaoxue raised her head.

Naruto nodded slightly, then pulled up Koyuki Kazahana, who was sitting on the snow. "Look, aren't those three Snow Ninja?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Hua Xiaoxue looked up and saw three figures standing on the icicle in front of her.

Her pupils contracted sharply, and she retreated repeatedly, but Naruto held her and forced her to look at the three snow ninjas.

"The way to overcome fear is to face it directly."

Do you think they are very strong?

"What's strong is their equipment, that's why I came here."

"If you put on that equipment, as long as you have enough chakra, you can become just as powerful as them."

Inside the sealed space, the Nine-Tails' ears twitched again.

The human host, who was counting the exploding tags, paused and looked in the direction of the Land of Snow.

Meanwhile, Koyuki Fuuka seemed not to hear Naruto's words, continuing to struggle, "Run! Run!"

Seeing this, Naruto was helpless; Koyuki's heartache was still too heavy.

Providing step-by-step guidance is too time-consuming.

"I was going to be gentler... but since that's the case, I'll give you something really intense."

Using drastic measures could have side effects, which is why Naruto has always guided her in a gentle way.

"Once these three kneel before you, and you don their chakra armor, you should understand what I mean."

P.S.: I really can't take it anymore, even Capricorns don't feel this bad... I'm rowing myself to this internet cafe to type this QAQ
