Chapter 2 Post-War Period

"How's it going?" Yakumo asked hurriedly as he looked at Asakura Ye who came out of the cave.

"Nothing. Asakura shrugged, "No, you haven't left yet." ”

Jue came out of the ground and said dissatisfiedly, "I know how to use people so quickly." I've just joined the organization. ”

"It can't be helped. Who made the horn of the capital that guy is too good at calling people. "For the dissatisfaction of the absolute, Ma Cangye didn't care much, but was a little happy.

"Ah, I see, I'll tell you about the bounty hunter. Jue said helplessly, so Jue told Asakura Ye the information about the bounty hunter that Kakuto said, "By the way, if she refuses, kill her and bring her body back to me." ”

"Corpses?" "Asakura Ye took a few steps back after hearing the words, "I didn't expect you to have a necrophilia." ”

"Not really. I only like chewy stuff, and that guy can turn any of his organs into weapons, and it must be nice to chew. If it doesn't taste good, I'll give her to the scorpion. He directly denied Asakura Ye's words.

"I see. So where is she now?" asked Asakura.

"The last news about her is in the Land of Joy. ”

"The land of music, if I remember correctly, seems to be a small country known mainly for music. She's going there to play music. Asakura Ye sneered after hearing Jue's words.

"Maybe. Recently, the country of music has been holding a music competition, so she may have taken a fancy to the prize money. After all, she's a bounty hunter, and it's normal for her to like money. ”

"That's right. Let's go. After listening to the words, Asakura Ye moved directly in the direction of the country of joy. And Yakumo followed suit.

When Asakura leaves went to the Land of Joy, Konoha was dealing with the aftermath.

Kakashi tells Jiraiya about the battle with Asakura Ha, "It's not like you, Kakashi." In the makeshift tent, Jiraiya said to Kakashi who was lying on the bed after listening to Kakashi's words.

"I want to know, too. Kakashi remembered the fight he had with Asakura after hearing Jiraiya's words, and it was strange how he would suddenly want to kill him.

"I guess I ate the wrong thing. Jiraiya said heartlessly after hearing Kakashi's words.

"How is that possible? I've always kept myself in top shape. Kakashi immediately retorted, "Wait a minute, but it's a possibility." Kakashi remembered that at the beginning of the Nakashinobi exam, Asakura Ha bought himself a salt-roasted saury, "What is this?" When Asakura Ha gave himself the salt-roasted saury, "Asaury." You shouldn't be so nervous that you forgot your favorite food? Asakura shook the saury in his hand and said dissatisfied, "I know it's a saury, I mean what does that mean?" Kakashi squinted at him after hearing Asakura Ha's words. After all, this is the first time that Ma Cangye has invited himself to eat, and he was basically forced before. "I may not be able to do the same in the future, so this is my gift to thank you. Asakura Ye lowered his head and said, "I just was silent for a while, and then I took the saury in Asakura Ha's hand and ate it. "Thank you. "No thanks. After all, you can be called my 'father'. Asakura leaves after speaking.

"I should have thought about it in the morning. The guy would suddenly invite me to eat. Kakashi remembered that Asakura Ha invited him to eat saury, and said with his head covered.

"It can't be helped. Who makes your own alertness not enough. "I don't know what Kakashi remembered, but I know it has something to do with Asakura Ha by looking at him.

After a moment of silence, "Then again, do you know where Naruto is? Jiraiya said after a moment of silence.

"I guess it's in the cemetery. After all, Ah Ye's betrayal had the greatest impact on him. Kakashi thought for a moment and said, "Jiraiya-sama, please be sure to enlighten Naruto well, I'm worried that he will act aggressively because of Aye's affairs. ”

"Don't worry. In any case, he is the son of Watergate, and he is also my disciple. I'm not going to let my disciples go down that path again. After hearing Kakashi's words, Jiraiya changed his previous appearance and said in a very serious tone.

"Then Naruto will leave it to you. Kakashi said to Jiraiya, who was leaving.

Konoha Cemetery.

Naruto went to Inoue Sakura's grave alone after hearing the news that Asakura had betrayed Konoha. Standing there silently, tears welling up in his eyes.

"Naruto. Hinata hid behind a tree and muttered to Naruto who was weeping at the grave, 'I have to think of something. ’

"Hinata. Can you promise me that if I leave Konoha in the future, I want you to take care of Naruto for me. Hinata remembered what Asakura had told him before.

"Take care of Naruto, why do you say that?" Hinata asked curiously as she felt a little strange after hearing Asakura Ha's words.

"You just have to tell me if it's going to work. Asakura said in an unquestionable tone.

"Hmm. I'll take care of Naruto. Hinata nodded.

"Then Naruto of my family will marry you. Don't treat him badly. Asakura said in a completely opposite tone to what he had just said.

"Hmm. Naruto will marry," Hinata immediately blushed and smoked when she heard Asakura Ha's words.

Remembering what Asakura had told him before, Hinata plucked up the courage to walk out, "Take care of Naruto." So, thinking like this, Hinata came behind Naruto, "Naruto." ”

Naruto heard someone calling him from behind his back and hurriedly wiped the tears from his face before turning around, "It's Hinata." What's the matter, I'm looking for something. Naruto said as he forced himself to keep his old smile.

"That's that. Asakura-kun's matter may have his own plans. Hinata looked at Naruto and said, her face reddening the more she spoke, "So, please don't be depressed anymore." ”

"Aye. I don't know what he's going to do, but why can't you discuss it with me? When Aye was instructing me in my practice, I should have known what he was going to do, and I always thought that he didn't tell me because he thought I wasn't strong enough, but I didn't expect him," Naruto said dissatisfiedly after hearing Hinata's words.

"Asakura-kun may have been worried too much because he didn't want Naruto, so he didn't plan to talk to Naruto. ”

"But the problem is that the guy doesn't even trust me, the only brother, and goes to the illusionist to leave with him. Naruto's tears that he could not hold back after hearing Hinata's words welled up again, "Why? Am I really a useless existence for Aye?" Asakura Ye left Konoha not only did not invite him, but left with the person he hated the most, which was simply a betrayal of his own nakedness.

"This" "I decided. I'm going to leave Konoha. Naruto said with a clenched fist before Hinata's words could be spoken.

"No, no, no. Hinata hugged Naruto directly after hearing Naruto's words, "Naruto can't leave Konoha either." So for the sake of everyone in Konoha, please stay. If Asakura-kun's departure makes you feel that Konoha has no one to trust, then you are very wrong, Naruto Even if everyone is against you, I will be with you. So please believe me as you believe in Asakura-kun, okay?" Hinata's words almost came out later.

"Hinata, did you misunderstand something? I'm just going to leave Konoha and bring that guy back to Konoha, and I'm not going to be a traitor. Naruto explained when he saw Hinata's movements and knew that she had misunderstood what he meant.

"Really? That's great. Hinata breathed a sigh of relief when she heard Naruto's words.

"Hinata. ”

"Huh?"

"Can you let go of me? I'm having a hard time breathing if you do that. And were you confessing just now?" Naruto said to Hinata, who hugged him tightly.

"Confession?" Hinata remembered his actions just now, so his face flushed, and he fainted directly.

"Hinata, are you alright?" said Naruto loudly as he propped up Hinata, who was weak.

But no matter what Naruto called, Hinata just didn't respond, "Have you fainted already?" Looking at Hinata who didn't respond, Naruto sighed and walked over to the makeshift tent through Hinata's back.

"Looks like we don't have to worry about Naruto for the time being. After Naruto left with Hinata on his back, Jiraiya said to himself, "But you'll have to keep an eye on him." ”

"Jiraiya. We want you to serve as the fifth Hokage. Behind Jiraiya, the two Hokage advisors said to Jiraiya, "This is what happened in the village, so we just decided to let you, one of the three ninjas, be the Hokage. In order to preside over the overall situation. ”

"I don't want it. Zilai also refused directly without thinking about it, "What's more, if you say three ninjas, isn't there another one?"

"You're talking about Steelhand-hime? No, there's no news of her at all, and there's no way to get her back to Konoha in a short period of time. Said Koharu.

"Just because you don't have it doesn't mean I don't. Don't worry, give me some time and I can bring her back to Konoha. Jiraiya smiled and said, "By the way, I want to take someone with me on this trip." ”

"Who?"

"Naruto Uzumaki. ”

"Nine-tailed pillar power? He's the ultimate weapon of Konoha yet. Mito Menyan said in a non-negotiable tone.

"It doesn't matter. I'll take a good look at him. Jiraiya said heroically, "After all, Konoha has just experienced such a thing, and it wouldn't be good if he was attacked." ”

"Attack. You mean Xiao. "Xiao's matter, the two advisors also know.

"Hmm. I'm the only one who can protect Naruto now. ”

The two advisors were silent for a moment, "Then please." With that, he left.

After they left, Jiraiya also left with them.

After they left. "Naruto, I heard Shikamaru say you're here. "Ino trotted to the cemetery, 'Naruto is in need of comfort right now, if I succeed, Naruto will accept me. After I get with Naruto, I'll see if there's anything else to say. "About Aye," Ino's words stopped before he could finish speaking.

Ahh

Looking at the empty cemetery, Ino was stunned there.

'Is this hell? Asuna looked around groggily, "I remember I should have been killed by Aye." ’

"You're awake. A voice took care of Asuna's thoughts, and Asuna turned her head to look at the voice's owner.

"Miss Alpha. Asuna looked at the owner of the voice and instantly sobered up, "Why is Miss Alpha here?" ”

"This is Konoha's makeshift medical tent, so it's normal for me to be here. Alpha smiled when he heard Asuna's words, "Are you alright?"

"I" Asuna moved her hands and feet after hearing Alpha's words, "How could my body be" She remembered that she should have been pinched half to death by Asakura Ha's Susanoo. How could it be that all of a sudden, nothing happened.

"Tomoyo rescued you, Juri used magic to help you heal, plus your system ability. Alpha walked over to Asuna's bedside.

"Yes, yes, Ayeta," Asuna said sadly.

"He has done this to you, and if you don't kill him, you're already sorry for the conscience of heaven and earth. Just then, Tomoyo came in from outside and said.

Asuna only smiled awkwardly when she heard Tomoyo's words, "By the way, how is Yakumo." Asuna suddenly remembered that Yakumo seemed to have gone out to help, so she hurriedly asked.

"Yakumo? You're talking about Kurama Yakumo, right? Alpha looked at Asuna and said, "She and Asakura have betrayed Konoha." And it was a premeditated betrayal. ”

"Really?" Asuna said in frustration when she heard Alpha's words. After all, Yakumo is his first friend after coming to this world, and Asakura Ye is a senior he longs for. I didn't think they would do such a thing.

"Compared to that. Just when Asuna was still thinking about Yakumo and Asakura leaves, Alpha spoke, "How did you think about that suggestion I made earlier. Do you want to join my Traveler Organization? ”

"But" Asuna has always thought that her strength is too weak, and being with Alpha and them will drag them down, so she has been hesitant to join Alpha and them.

"If it's strength. You can slowly improve in the future. Alpha knew what Asuna was thinking, so he suggested it.

"Hmm. Asuna thought for a moment, "I see." But I have to talk to my master and his old man first, after all, maybe we won't see each other again. ”

"That's not necessary, I'll be in this world for three years, so you don't have to be in such a hurry to tell Mifune. Alpha shook his hand when he heard Asuna's words.

Probably seeing Asuna's decadent appearance, "By the way, Asuna, why don't you train with me." The ability of the system coupled with my training, after two years, I will definitely be able to hang and beat the leaves of the asakura. Alpha said as he threw the bait.

"Hang and beat Ah Ye. Asuna was taken aback by Alpha's words, she never thought of defeating Asakura Leaf, after all, Makura Leaf gave her the feeling that she was invincible, especially in the previous battle that Asakura Leaf could play and abuse herself, not to mention the future Makura Leaf, "How is this possible." ”

"Don't look down at yourself, Asuna, you're not all there. Alpha looked at Asuna's blushing face and said, "Even without my guidance, with your previous growth state, you can still beat Asakura in a few years." "Alpha knows that Asakura has a blood disease, and his strength will get weaker and weaker in a few years.

"Trust me, Asuna. Alpha climbed onto Asuna's bed and pressed his left hand to her pillow, stroking Asuna's hair with his right hand. Slowly teasing Asuna.

"I see, please get up first. Asuna was teased by Alpha, and said intermittently.

"Oh well. I'll be waiting for you in the Land of Iron. Alpha heard Asuna say yes and got out of bed.

"Why are you waiting for me in the Iron Country?"

"After all, you'll have to talk to Mifune, too. Because it's hard to connect with the outside world. ”

"It's hard to connect with the outside world, it's a different world. Asuna remembered her previous trip to Alpha's world, "What about the time ratio?" and said what she was concerned about, if it had been decades since she came back, she would have cried.

"It's not. It's in this world. However, I will set up an enchantment in that area so that you will not be affected by the outside world while you are cultivating. It's about two years. Alpha answered Asuna's doubts and vanished.

"Two years?" Asuna muttered as she looked at the top of the tent, "Can I really surpass Aye in two years?"
