In Konoha, Naruto lies down

Now it was Tsunade's turn to frown, thinking this guy's reaction wasn't right. Two girlfriends were about to collide, why was he reacting like this? Huh? Something wasn't right.

She was still thinking about fishing, but now her mind was a little less focused.

"If Ino and Hinata meet, what good will happen to you?"

"Hehe." Naruto smiled but did not answer, thinking that his brother had already treated Hinata equally in advance, so even if they met, there would be no Shura scene.

Naruto's silence annoyed Tsunade a bit, but she was also a bit curious about why this bastard seemed so confident.

Frowning, her fishing attempt failed. Tsunade skipped the topic directly, as she would know soon anyway.

"Okay, I called you here this time actually for a mission." Tsunade crossed her fingers and spoke seriously.

"What mission?"

"The Sand Village has asked Konoha for help. The rebel puppeteer Centipede has fled to the heart of the desert of the Wind Country. According to the alliance, we need to send people to support the Sand Village."

"Catch the traitor?" Naruto was stunned. "It's just a traitor. Is it necessary to mobilize so many troops? Did he steal some top-secret information?"

Although he said this, his heart was as clear as a mirror. There is a Loulan ruin in the heart of the Kingdom of Wind. Isn't this the plot line of the Lost Tower?

"Baizu's goal is to open the Loulan ruins in the heart of the Wind Country's desert. There is a dragon vein hidden beneath the ruins. He wants to take the dragon vein for himself and awaken the puppet army."

"What is a dragon vein?" he asked.

"Wild infinite chakra balls contain enormous energy. Some speculate that there are more than one dragon vein, but currently the only known one is the Loulan ruins in the Kingdom of Wind."

Tsunade replied, pausing before continuing.

"However, some people speculate that there seems to be a miniature dragon vein under the Land of Rain. Hanzo of the Land of Rain once used forbidden techniques on the battlefield to repel the Iwagakure troops. The chakra properties are very similar to the dragon vein's chakra."

"One last question, why me?" He sat up straight in his seat and stared at Tsunade.

"Not only you, Sakura will also act with you." Tsunade pretended to be confused and said, "The mission is not that urgent, you can wait until tomorrow to carry it out."

Naruto: “….”

He was a little speechless. This old woman, Queshi, was just like him, not very shameless. As expected of you, fat sheep. She was so good at changing the subject and playing dumb.

Seeing that Naruto didn't respond, Tsunade couldn't pretend anymore and said with a cough.

"Well, the last time the dragon vein appeared, it was sealed by the Fourth Hokage. And you are good at sealing techniques, and you are the only one who can seal the Fourth Hokage..."

Halfway through her speech, Tsunade didn't know what to say.

"I know, I know." Naruto also felt it was a bit troublesome. If he really wanted to carry out this mission, he might really have to meet the Fourth Hokage.

There was no point in sealing the dragon veins. Following the principle of a thief never leaving empty-handed, he had to at least extract some interest from this wild world. But if he set his sights on the dragon veins, he'd inevitably have to travel through time and space with his own unique background music.

This is really...

Since Naruto was deliberately vague about the topic, Tsunade naturally wouldn't continue. She checked the time, figuring it was almost time to leave, and stood up.

"Wait, I can do the mission, but I have a request." He suddenly said.

"Hmm? What's the request?" Tsunade turned her head to look at him, confusion evident on her collagen-filled face, her blonde hair draped on both sides of her cheeks.

"Kick out Sakura who's in the way. I can handle it alone." Naruto's face was full of disdain, and he stretched out his hand and made a finger-snapping gesture.

........

"what?"

"Did he really say that?" Sakura's face instantly turned red with anger, and she clenched her fists. "Why does he say that?! What do you mean by being in the way, Sakura?"

Tsunade looked at Sakura with a smile, as if she was enjoying the fun and spoke in an exaggerated tone.

"He also said that medical ninjas are just a burden to him and have no meaning. He can heal minor injuries on his own and there's no need for them."

"Uzumaki Naruto!!!" Sakura gritted her teeth.

She was really angry. Last time, that scumbag lied to her and said he had forgiven her and told her to focus on her research. But then he turned around and backstabbed her. Men's words were really deceiving!

However, Sakura is not the kind of person who would keep a grievance to herself. She frowned and immediately came up with a plan.

the other side.

Shikamaru's wedding was bustling with activity, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and there were crowds of people.

On the lawn, Naruto looked at the many unfamiliar faces with little interest. He turned around and saw a delicious-looking strawberry cake among the various cakes on the table.

So he simply walked over, reached out to take it, but his hand bumped into another fat hand.

Choji looked up, and perhaps because he was afraid that Naruto would gossip about whether he had used the technique he taught him that day, his face suddenly became a little embarrassed.

“…What a coincidence.”

Naruto was completely oblivious as he took the cake and broke it in half with his bare hands. He handed half to Choji while speaking viciously.

"That rich bastard who ate up Shikamaru's money made him get married so young!"

Shikamaru accepted the cake fearfully, wondering where Naruto's resentment came from. Thinking of his own upcoming wedding, he suddenly felt a pang of sadness.

"If it's inconvenient for you, my wedding can be postponed." He offered.

"No, no!" Naruto waved his hands, feeling somewhat touched in his heart, but it was possible that Shikamaru's wedding would be another Shura field with two winners.

If I hadn't given Hinata a reassurance yesterday, things might have gone wrong today. Hinata and Ino weren't in sight either, so they probably came with the elders.

He and Choji had arrived early, purely to eat. Shikamaru, the groom, would be incredibly busy all day, and as groomsmen, they only needed to be there for a short while.

"Naruto, you...you eat slowly, be careful not to choke." Choji was really scared. This man ate so crazily, it seemed that Shikamaru was there and wanted to eat him too.

"The purpose of life is to eat! I'm eating, eating, eating!!!" Naruto took a bite of the cake and swallowed it directly. "I'm going to eat all the food later. No one can escape. I'm eating, eating, eating, eating!!"

Shivering, Choji hesitated whether to just skip the wedding. Naruto was so full of resentment that he might even eat himself alive.

The crowd in the distance erupted in a roar as Tsunade was escorted into the venue, accompanied by members of various clans. Naruto spotted Hinata and Ino, following the head of the clan into the venue.

Chapter 341 Are you a pig? You only know how to eat.

The wedding officially began and various important people arrived.

Tsunade exchanged a few words with Nara Shikaku, then her gaze shot past everyone and towards Naruto. Everyone's gaze shifted accordingly, looking towards the giggling boy.

"Ahem!" Choji pushed Naruto.

Naruto looked up and saw Tsunade had already walked in front of him. The heavy pressure made him stunned for a moment. He looked up and suddenly wanted to curse.

Why did he come here for no reason? This fat sheep must have done it on purpose. It was obvious that he could get away with it by just keeping a low profile.

Sure enough, Ino and Hinata both looked over.

"Are you hungry?" Tsunade asked with some amusement.

"Are you free?" Naruto smiled, his mouth opened a little, and the sound was almost squeezed out from between his teeth.

"I am indeed a little hungry. Lady Tsunade, is there anything I can help you with?" Naruto thought to himself. He still had to give Tsunade enough face in front of everyone, for fear that she would ruin his plans.

Secondly, he was afraid that she would ruin his own show. Thirdly, he was still afraid that she would ruin his own show!

"Oh, it's okay, I just care about you." Tsunade smiled, looking like a gentle boss, which made Naruto's scalp tingle.

Is this an old woman showing off her acting skills? I don't usually see her like this. She's either drinking or sleeping on the table all day. She's not doing anything all day. I don't know what she's doing.

Naruto's mouth twitched, but before he could say anything, Tsunade turned and left.

He noticed that Hinata in the crowd glanced at him secretly, and Ino was staring at him straight with a warning look on her face, and her expression was not very good.

He had planned everything, but he never expected that it was Tsunade who lured them here. He was instantly filled with hatred, but there was nothing he could do but to find a way to get by.

Don’t look down on the poor youngsters, for they are fat sheep waiting for you!

Ino turned her head and the man was gone when she looked again, her frown deepening. This man slipped away quite quickly, all he did was eat, eat, eat.

Since she couldn't see anyone, she lost interest. She planned to go back to see the wedding scene and then went back. They had a good relationship and didn't care about these empty things at all.

After the wedding, Shikamaru organized a dinner for everyone, and that marked the end of the wedding.

She was about to leave when a man suddenly appeared beside her. He looked to be in his twenties, a stranger, but he smiled very attentively. He greeted her and spoke.

"Ms. Yamanaka, can I meet you? I am a ninja from the Shimura clan, Shimura..."

Hearing this, Ino was stunned for a moment.

The Shimura clan, a family that has always been at odds with the Ino-Shika-Cho clan, came to greet her? Really... She complained in her heart, but her face remained expressionless.

Before she could refuse, the man was suddenly pushed by someone.

Naruto appeared out of nowhere, his tone somewhat impatient, "Get lost, you bastard from the Shimura clan, don't let me see you, or I'll stuff the table in your mouth next time."

"you!"

"What do you mean? Get out of here now. Do you want to be beaten in public?" Naruto was too lazy to listen and was about to kick him. The man then left angrily.

"Humph, are you a pig? All you know is eating."

"Hey, how can you talk like that?" Naruto took Ino away from the scene while no one was paying attention. Before leaving, he specifically confirmed that Hinata was not there.

"What for?" Ino was still a little reluctant and was taken to a secluded place in the wedding by Naruto.

This might be the most formal outfit Naruto has ever worn in his life. The traditional black collar with black lining makes him look simple and cool. His broad frame has a sexiness that is unique to men.

Ino smoothed her golden hair, wearing a light-colored sleeveless tights and a hip skirt. Her arms were exposed, revealing a large area of ​​white skin, and she had a slightly dissatisfied look on her face.

"What are you angry about?" he asked.

This angle just blocked Ino, so even if someone came, they wouldn't be able to see that there was another person in the corner.

"Huh, I'm angry, why should I care?"

"Oh, you think I eat too much and it embarrasses you?"

"No! Don't talk nonsense!" Ino reacted violently and stomped on his foot. "You know it clearly, yet you're still pretending!"

Hearing this, Naruto was stunned for a moment.

"You knew I was going on a mission right after the wedding?"

"You're going on a mission?" Ino was confused. "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Who knows? Lady Tsunade just told me this this morning." Naruto said without changing his expression, directly tampering with Tsunade's original words.

"She said this mission was urgent and she had to leave right after the wedding and couldn't wait until tomorrow."

Hearing this, Ino was indeed distracted and looked at Naruto with some concern. She took his hand and asked in a low voice.

"Is it dangerous?"

Ninja missions cannot be revealed, especially to people not related to the mission, even to relatives. Ino is also a ninja, so naturally she would not ask.

"There's no danger, I just don't know when I'll be back." What he said was true. The dragon vein was not stable and there was no certainty.

"Then you must come back safely."

"it is good."

Naruto smiled and reached out to pinch Ino's face, then suddenly realized that this was Hinata's habit of pinching, but his hand had already been extended and there was absolutely no reason to retract it.

Ino was also a little surprised. He had never pinched her face before. That bastard always liked to pinch other places. But since they had just met and were about to part, she didn't think too much of it.

"There aren't many missions like this throughout the year, so don't worry." He curled his lips. "I'll probably spend more time in the village from now on, so I'll probably need to rest for a while."

"Yeah." Ino was not in a good mood. She just lowered her head and suddenly remembered Hinata's matter. She frowned and looked up and asked.

"Have you seen Hinata?"

Naruto pursed his lips, thinking that if he said he didn't see it at this moment, it would be too obvious. If he said he saw it directly, it would easily make Ino jealous.

In a flash, he already had the answer in his mind.

"I saw it and wanted to go up and say hello, but now I don't have time." Naruto said, "After the wedding starts, I have to rush to the Hokage Building."

"If you see her later, remember to say hello to her for me."

He didn't say he didn't see it, but boldly admitted that he saw it and wanted to say hello. But at the same time, he said that he was too late for the mission, but he was clearly still flirting with Ino.

The implication is that Ino is much more important than Hinata, not even as important as the mission. More importantly, he even asked Ino to say hello for him, which was, to some extent, a declaration of sovereignty.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Ino relaxed her frown and said with a smile.

"Okay then. I'll do it for you."

He smiled, then put his arms around Ino's neck and kissed her quickly.

"Uh-huh!!"
