In Konoha, Naruto lies down

"Ino!" Naruto suddenly shouted.

"what happened?"

Ino turned her head, looking startled by Naruto.

"I saw it."

"What...what did you see?" Ino blinked and reacted instantly after three seconds.

"Ah! You!!!" Ino shrank back instantly.

While holding it down tightly, he glared at Naruto with murderous eyes and asked angrily.

"What did you see?"

"Didn't see anything."

"You just said you saw it!" Ino gritted her teeth.

"Um...I need to go to the bathroom." Naruto pretended to run to the bathroom.

"Don't go!" Ino hurriedly ran to the bathroom door and blocked it, "You're definitely going to do something weird!"

"How can it be."

As Naruto spoke, he silently moved to a corner of the sofa and used his hands behind his back to grope around the sofa. He slid the intimate paradise up and neatly hid it behind his back.

"Then I won't go."

........

At the intersection downstairs, Ino was standing straight in a black dress, while Naruto was squatting beside her, bored.

"Is Mrs. Yamanaka coming soon?"

"It should be soon. Mother is very punctual." Ino said.

Hearing this, Naruto stood up and handed Ino a pack of tissues and said.

"Then I'll go first."

"Why?" Ino looked at Naruto's outstretched hand and hesitated for a moment before grabbing the pack of tissues.

"It's not nice to be seen alone with you and me. Although I don't want to admit it, but... I do..." Naruto stopped talking halfway and spread his hands.

"Anyway...see you next time, Ino."

"Hey! Don't go, it's okay."

Ino reached out her hand, but Naruto had already walked away. He waved at her with his back and his figure disappeared soon after.

She stood there for a while, then turned her head and looked away, her eyes dimming. Although she said it was okay, she was also hesitant about her mother's attitude.

Even standing together as a friend is not allowed?

She stared at the pack of tissues in a daze, as if what she had just grabbed was not a tissue.

"Ino."

"Hmm!" Ino looked up suddenly, only to see her mother, Yamanaka Rino.

"what happened to you?"

Yamanaka Rino, dressed like a noble lady in an emerald green dress and carrying a delicate black bag, reached out and touched her daughter's cold forehead.

"When I walked over just now, I saw you standing here in a daze."

"I'm fine." Ino forced a smile. "It's just that mother is too slow and I'm getting bored waiting."

"Feel sorry."

"How about mother giving me a dress?" Ino took Yamanaka Rino's hand and said affectionately.

"You're so grown up, why are you still like a child?" Yamanaka Rino touched Ino's head lovingly and said with a smile.

"Why did I see you weren't alone just now? Are you your friend?"

"Yeah." Ino felt a little guilty, "Not really, we're just more familiar with each other."

"Our little Ino has grown up." Yamanaka Rino said with a smile, and walked towards Konoha Hospital with Ino in her arm.

"Mother, don't talk nonsense." Ino said coquettishly.

"Is that Naruto?"

Yamanaka Rino's words made Ino stunned for a moment. She turned her head slightly to look at the unnatural expression on her daughter's face, and smiled with a guessed answer.

"Naruto and I..."

"Ino, your father and I are both very open-minded people." Yamanaka Rino's voice was still gentle, "But Naruto, as a mother, I hope you will reconsider."

Ino pursed her lips and said nothing.

"It's not that I don't like Naruto, but he is very important to the village." Yamanaka Rino said, "The village has too many restrictions on Naruto. I just don't want you to get hurt."

"Ah."

......

Naruto stood on a high electric pole, looking down at the entire Konoha with an expressionless face. His sight passed through the layers of mountains and stopped on a cliff in the distance.

His pupils were a strange blood red, exactly like the Nine-Tailed Fox's.

There were two black dots standing above the Hokage Rock. When the view got closer, they were two strange men in hats wearing windbreakers with black background and red clouds.

Chapter 72 If you refuse, I will kill you immediately

"Mr. Itachi, this village seems to be your hometown. Do you miss it?"

Hoshigaki Kisame, with his fangs bared under his conical hat, stood at the outermost guardrail of the Hokage Rock, glancing sideways at Uchiha Itachi who was dressed similarly.

“I don’t miss it.”

Uchiha Itachi swept his eyes across the devastated Konoha Ninja Village, passing over the broken walls, collapsed houses, and across the treetops.

Even though Konoha Village was severely damaged, the dense cluster of dome-shaped houses still seemed full and ready to burst. The red tiles and yellow walls, and the dense trees scattered throughout the residential areas, made the scene lush and green everywhere.

“An ugly place.”

As he spoke, Uchiha Itachi slowly turned and left, stopping for a moment beside Hoshigaki Kisame.

"Let's go."

......

Konoha Hospital.

"Please wait a moment." The Chunin in charge of guarding the floor entrance checked the procedures and immediately smiled, "Please follow me."

"Mother, are there many people visiting Sasuke?" Ino and Yamanaka Rino asked casually as they walked in the hospital corridor.

"Not many," Yamanaka Rino said, "Some families are on the sidelines. Most families have no reason to approach the Uchiha descendants, as they would be suspected by the village leaders."

"The counselors gave us special permission to visit the child."

"Uh, Ino, you like Sasuke, right?" Yamanaka Rino turned around and asked with a chuckle.

"Of course, who wouldn't like Sasuke?" Ino said openly while holding her mother's hand, "Sasuke has always been very handsome."

"The men of the Uchiha clan are indeed very charming." Yamanaka Rino said with a smile.

On the rooftop of a high-rise building outside Konoha Hospital.

Itachi stared at Naruto not far away and made a hand gesture to prepare for the hand seal. The distance would affect the effect of the ninjutsu, and the hand seal needed to strengthen the ninjutsu and concentrate the mind.

"The plan to capture the Nine-Tails went surprisingly smoothly." Hoshigaki Kisame said with a relaxed look, "It's just a little kid, there's no need to be nervous."

"Kisame, the Jinchuriki is waiting for us."

"What?" Hoshigaki Kisame's expression changed slightly, "Mr. Itachi, we entered Konoha without being sensed by anyone."

"Yeah, that's why it's so strange."

"Do you want to give up the mission first?" Hoshigaki Kisame asked, "If we get entangled by the Konoha ninjas, things will become troublesome."

"No, now is the best opportunity." Itachi raised his head, and the Sharingan in his pupils spun in a circle. "It seems that no one except the Jinchūriki has noticed our presence for the time being."

Naruto looked at Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame in the distance, his face expressionless and slightly nervous.

This might be the first major crisis he had encountered since crossing over, and standing opposite him was Uchiha Itachi. He knew Uchiha Itachi would probably come, but he didn't expect him to come so soon.

It seemed that no one else noticed them except themselves.

Do you want to shout for help?

If it still doesn't work, it might as well be effective to shout "SARS".

I was just wandering around, how could this happen? Run? As expected, run first. Uchiha Itachi won't let anyone other than Sasuke go easy on him. It's too dangerous.

The summer breeze blew by, and Naruto decisively turned around and ran.

Uchiha Itachi disappeared from the spot, almost teleporting to block Naruto's way. He stretched out his hand wrapped in a fishing net combat uniform from his large black windbreaker with red clouds and grabbed Naruto directly.

Hoshigaki Kisame also surrounded him from behind. If nothing unexpected happened, the speed and time would not be enough for Naruto to perform hand seals.

However, there are three ninjutsu given by the system that do not require hand seals.

Flying Thunder God, Diamond Seal, Four Symbols Seal.

The latter two things cannot cause much harm to Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame, whose strength is far greater than that of Naruto now.

Naruto never forgot his original intention and was determined to escape.

Seeing Uchiha Itachi infinitely close to Naruto, almost catching him, Flying Thunder God was activated! Naruto instantly returned to the position where they had just stood, and left a few detonating tags before disappearing.

Uchiha Itachi's pupils dilated slightly and he instantly left the explosion range.

Boom boom, a violent explosion sounded above Konoha.

The ninjas on guard duty scattered throughout the village all raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound.

"Kisame, let's go."

Uchiha Itachi was almost unharmed, but he still gave up his plan for the time being.

Naruto, who luckily escaped, hid in an abandoned building with backlight, silently repenting for blowing up the newly built building for sale, and thanked this era without large-scale surveillance.

Fortunately, he had made preparations and placed the Flying Thunder God Kunai in a building not far from him. If it had been placed a little further away, something bad would have happened.

"What are you hiding from?"

A familiar voice emerged from the shadows. Naruto turned around and saw a strange black-haired girl. Her clothes were a little worn, and her hair didn't seem very shiny.

But I always feel like I've heard this tone somewhere before...

"It's you?"

Naruto was dumbfounded. Orochimaru had already run away, so what was Tayuya doing here?

Tayuya changed her disguise again, and seemed to have used some ninjutsu. In short, her appearance was somewhat different from the previous two times.

Now she looks more like an ordinary slum girl, with nothing special about her body or face, so it doesn't seem strange that she appears in this abandoned building.

"It seems you recognized me." Tayuya said with a cold face, "It seems I have no choice but to kill you."

"I'll treat you to beef rice."

"Well." Tayuya put away the knife. "If you say so... I'll let you live for two more days."

"What flavor do you want?" Naruto stood up with his hands on the ground. His palms were covered with dust, and there was a musty smell inside the building.

Perhaps due to the long years of disrepair and the backlight, even though the two were not far away, they still couldn't see each other's faces clearly. Drops of dirty water fell from the cracks in the ceiling and dripped onto Naruto's shoulders.

"I haven't tried it, but it sounds delicious."

"Then I'll decide."

"Can I have an extra ice cream? If you refuse, I'll kill you right now."

"Well, I can. I happened to escape a disaster, so I can be considered a survivor." Naruto let out a breath, "But if my life is only worth an ice cream, it really doesn't make me happy."

"Two?"

“Will I get an upset stomach?”

"No, it's just that I haven't eaten for three days."
