In Konoha, Naruto lies down

Chapter 248 The Five Kage Summit Incident

Is she testing herself? Naruto's eyelids twitched slightly. Yukito didn't use water or food at all.

It's been almost ten days, and your vitality hasn't decreased but increased. You told me you needed food and water? Are you showing weakness, old fox? Are you trying to find out what's going on here under the guise of a deal?

The elite Jonin of Kumogakure is indeed extraordinary. Even at this time, he remains calm and composed.

He naturally wouldn't let You Muren get what he wanted, so he shook his head and said, "I haven't made up my mind yet. I'll make the deal when I do."

With a snap, Naruto disappeared from the sealed space.

I opened my eyes and sat up from the sofa, just in time to see Ninetails sneaking back from the balcony. Like a red Tom cat, he peeked out and opened the French window with a bang.

Naruto asked lazily without even raising his eyelids.

"Where did you go?"

Kyuubi's response was more succinct, "Drink."

With that, it swaggered across the living room and jumped onto the sofa to lie down. The cool afternoon summer breeze blew in from the half-open French windows, and the living room was filled with a fresh breeze.

Naruto ignored it, went to the kitchen to get a glass of water, and then went back to his room to rest.

Lying on the bed, closing my eyes, my mind was in a mess.

He thought about the two masks, thinking about them during the day and dreaming about them at night, thinking of this state as a dream. He saw a long and narrow bluestone passage in the grayness ahead.

This familiar sense of déjà vu even made Naruto feel as if he had returned to the underground palace of Mount Myoboku, where he and Jiraiya met the old Toad Sage.

But the difference is that the end of this passage is gray fog, and the two sides are not thick stone walls but dark abysses.

"It seems to be a dream again." He muttered, realizing that it might be a dream pieced together by his brain.

The underground palace of Mount Myōboku and the abyss within the crevices of the underground ruins of the Whirlpool Country, the two combined, roughly constituted this absurd dream.

He tried, but couldn't wake up.

Looking back, the abyss. Looking to both sides, the abyss. Sighing, I can only move forward.

The clattering sound of footsteps could be heard, and he was not walking fast. He was observing the changes around him as he walked, and with every step he took, the road behind him would disappear.

Perhaps there was no turning back, so after walking for a few minutes, I finally saw what was beyond the gray fog.

A huge stone door.

He stretched out his hand and paused on the stone door, then withdrew his hand and kicked it open.

Sometimes it's like this, you think about it for many days, wait for a long time, kick the door open, and the answer is directly in front of you.

Dense sea-blue light bloomed from behind the door, and the stone door burst open.

With a ding, the familiar mechanical synthesized sound echoed through the hall behind the door. This time, no panel popped up. Instead, the mechanical synthesized sound, contrary to its usual practice, announced something unrelated to the mission.

Dear traveler, welcome home.

The hall was open-topped, and two massive stone statues were encased in a blue glow. Naruto looked up and saw one with a green face and fangs, and white hair, while the other had a bloody face and red hair, resembling Yama.

Shit, Naruto finally understood why the system always had the Evil God's Blessing and the Death God's Gaze. The Emotional System treated this as a reward because it had locked up the power of the Evil God and the Death God.

Damn your dog system, are you trying to keep gods in captivity?

Although I don't know if that stone statue is a true god, it looks like it has at least some power. No wonder this dog system has been stuck several times, it's really...wonderful.

He walked back and forth several times in the hall. The hall was empty, with nothing but two stone statues of gods. Oh, and there was also a huge electronic panel, exactly the same as the one Naruto saw himself.

"So this is what the system looks like inside?" He muttered as he walked under the statue of the Grim Reaper and kicked it lightly, but the statue didn't move at all.

After wandering around for a while, Naruto sat on the ground in a daze, trying to see if he could call up the system panel. As a result, the system panel in the hall moved, sliding and switching screens according to Naruto's thoughts.

While checking the unfinished tasks, he was absentmindedly thinking about the future.

After all, the system was honest and reliable. Since coming to this world, the biggest support he had ever had was the system, but he hadn't expected it to kidnap the local tyrant.

He glanced at the two stone statues and was shocked again. No wonder the rewards were just some ninjutsu at first, but later became more and more outrageous. However, this made him feel a lot more at ease.

After wandering around for a long time, I found nothing to see and left.

in the room.

Naruto opened his eyes and felt like he hadn't slept at all. He couldn't fall asleep again, so he simply got up and looked out the window. It was probably around four or five in the afternoon.

He yawned and opened the door in his slippers.

The sun was setting outside the window, its brightness no different from midday. The tall man just stood there lazily. Kyuubi had also woken up, looking like a hungover dog.

"Let's go eat something tonight?" Kyuubi said.

Hearing this, Naruto walked up and patted its head, sneering.

"Who are you talking to?"

Ninetails bared his teeth, patted his stomach and said, "I'm hungry."

"Haha, what does it have to do with me? Go buy it yourself." Naruto looked like a boss who didn't want to leave. He turned around and was about to go out, but the Nine-Tailed Fox followed him.

"What are you following me for?"

"On my way." Jiuwei stood up and said swaggeringly, "I plan to live with your owner. It's too much trouble to go back and forth."

Naruto glanced at it and a sneer appeared on his face.

"You bastard, whether you believe what I say or not, you will be thrown out."

"Impossible!" Nine-Tailed said arrogantly, "Absolutely impossible, my relationship with her is even better, it's unbreakable..."

......

Outside the Hyuga base.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was no longer in a good condition to drink alcohol." Hinata's face was filled with guilt, her face red against the setting sun, "I won't feed it alcohol anymore."

"It's okay, thank you Hinata, it's not your fault." Naruto moved his lips, his face calm and he said, "It's all because he was too greedy for alcohol."

The Nine-Tails was dumbfounded. No more wine to drink at Hinata's place? It turned and glared at Naruto, but didn't dare to say anything, for fear that the wine at home would also be cut off.

Damn Uzumaki Naruto! It shouted in its heart.

"Isn't the wine expensive?" he asked.

"No, not much. I control the amount every day..." Hinata was a little nervous, wearing a plain long skirt. "Actually...it's nothing."

"I don't mean to return the favor. I just think Hinata's kindness is rare, so I wanted to pick out a gift for you in return," he asked with a smile.

"When do you have time?"

"I..." Hinata was startled, blinked and turned her head away, "Actually, there's no need for a gift. It's too much trouble for you."

He just stood there and looked at Hinata for a few times, with a smile in his eyes, "Then I won't see you off."

"what?"

"I will." He smiled, as if laughing at her reaction.

Hinata's face flushed instantly, and she lowered her head, unsure what to say. Her heart raced, and her thoughts returned to Naruto.

She was introverted, but not stupid, and Naruto didn't say anything excessive. He completely took care of her feelings. She took care of the Nine-Tails for him, and he suggested picking out a gift.

There was no beating around the bush, but the distance was being pushed forward at a rapid pace. Hinata had the right to choose, she could go along with the selection, or just accept the gift.

It was as if he had entered a corner of her life, and then waved and asked her if she wanted to come out and play together. He was willing to give her a choice and completely respect her.

However, Hyuga Hiashi never listened to her opinions and always scolded and ordered his daughter to do things. If she couldn't become a good head of the family, then he would just leave her to Yuhi Kurenai to be a ninja.

Before starting a mission, they would also remind their companions with a stern face not to cause trouble to them, because the Hyuga clan would never cause trouble to others, which was the pride of the Hyuga clan.

Hinata lived cautiously, trying to maintain her remaining stubbornness. She had always had an inferiority complex, and as someone who was at the bottom of the class, she struggled through training.

It seems like I have no talent for anything, and nothing goes well for me. But what can I do? If I fall, I will just get up quietly. This is the family motto of the Hyuga family.

But suddenly someone kept telling her that she was good enough and respected her choice. Even though she was wearing tacky clothes and didn't look very good, they still talked to her.

Hinata was instantly overwhelmed, her heart softened like sand. Her affection for Naruto was dense and dense, and she threw all her affection on him.

Especially now, Naruto looked at her with a slack look in his eyes, the golden light of the street lamp shining through the green leaves onto the ground. She couldn't help herself, and after a long while, she hummed coldly.

On the way home, Naruto glanced at the Nine-Tails beside him and suddenly spoke.

"Is the wine you drank at Hinata's place sold on the streets of Konoha?"

"Hmm?" Kyuubi realized something was wrong and immediately turned his sullen head around. He stood up and asked, "Are you in a good mood today?"

"A little bit," he said.

"Whatever. I don't understand you humans." It curled its lips and said, "That wine is not for sale, but you can buy some expensive wine to compensate me."

"That's fine." Naruto didn't care.

"I suddenly realized that you, little brat, still have some advantages." Kyuubi said excitedly.

........

The next day.

Naruto went to the Hokage Building, went straight to the office on the fifth floor, and pushed the door open.

Tsunade put down the jade porcelain wine glass in her hand and glanced at him with a frown, "What's the matter?"

"Why do we suddenly have a Five Kage summit?" He walked straight over, pulled a chair and sat opposite Tsunade.

"It was the request of the people from the Hidden Thunder Village. I heard that the Two-Tails was kidnapped by Uchiha Sasuke." Tsunade leaned lazily in the chair, with half of her white arm resting on the table.

"Who knows what they're going to do? Anyway, Uchiha Sasuke has nothing to do with Konoha anymore. Going there would be a complete waste of time."

Hearing this, Naruto was immediately dissatisfied.

"But...wasn't that a waste of my time? The investigation mission to the Rain Country is about to begin, and I can't let the lecherous sage wait like this forever."

"There's no rush about that. Jiraiya has already left the village." She said lazily.

He was suddenly startled, "Where are we going?"

Chapter 249: You don’t have a princess complex, do you?

Hearing this, Tsunade paused for two or three seconds before speaking.

"An S-rank mission in the Land of Rice. Orochimaru is active there, and Jiraiya went to investigate."

"Oh, it's Orochimaru." Naruto felt relieved. At least Jiraiya's good friend Orochimaru was only thinking about immortality and had no time to fight to the death with Jiraiya.

"That's all right," he said.

"Why are you so concerned about Jiraiya's whereabouts? It's like you're worried about him." Tsunade knocked on the table and looked at him with narrow eyes, "Shouldn't you be worried about yourself?"

Naruto smiled, sat there with his arms and legs stretched out, leaned his head back on the chair, and said very proudly.

"The wicked live a thousand years."

Tsunade smiled, her face full of joy, but there was no bottom in her chest.

"You do have a dirty heart. I'm relieved to hear you say that. However, regarding the Nine-Tailed Fox incident... I don't think you explained it clearly to me, did you?"

"This..." Naruto couldn't explain.

Seeing this, Tsunade didn't force him, but rubbed her forehead and asked.

"Never mind. It's a headache even if I know. Tell me about the Sunagakure Princess incident. Does it have anything to do with you?"

"I don't know." Naruto looked confused, which was the truth. "I just heard about that incident when I got back. It really has nothing to do with me. I didn't do anything."

"You didn't do anything? You have a special relationship with that little princess of Sunagakure, right?" Tsunade glanced at him, "Otherwise, why would she support you for no reason?"

"I'm not sure about that. After all, I was on a mission at that time." Naruto argued. "Besides, even if we take a step back, maybe the other party saw my potential."

"They're attracted to you." Tsunade said, "They probably want to poach you. They've noticed that you're no longer the Nine-Tails Jinchūriki."

"I won't go. I will always be loyal to Lady Tsunade." Naruto's will to survive was full, and he stood up with a bang, "I won't go anywhere until Lady Tsunade leaves."

Tsunade rolled her eyes, completely disbelieving his unconscionable lies. But she didn't want to delve into it. She sat up straight, picked up her wine glass, and took a sip.

"In addition to the princess of Sunagakure, there is also Princess Toki from the Kingdom of Birds, and this time Princess Kazehana Koyuki from the Kingdom of Snow." She frowned and looked at Naruto with a scrutinizing look.

"Do you have a special fetish for princesses?"

"No! Absolutely not!" Naruto refused to admit it and said in a low voice, "Ino is not a princess. I just like her very much."

"She's a princess of the Yamanaka clan, so to speak. The Ino-Shika-Cho clan of Konoha is also very famous in the ninja world. Don't underestimate the Yamanaka clan, you guy."
