In Konoha Hospital, after a full day of coma, Naruto's eyelids finally moved, and after a moment, he slowly opened his eyes, and the next moment, the familiar ceiling came into his eyes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Lost badly, little ghost."

He had just regained consciousness and had not yet checked the situation in his vicinity, when a dull and tyrannical voice suddenly sounded in Naruto's head, and this voice was only heard by him at the moment.

Naruto's face didn't show any surprise at the sudden sound in his head, obviously, he was used to the existence that made the sound, and he also knew that the existence was the monster that attacked the village twelve years ago, the nine-tailed demon fox.

In the previous battle with Sasuke, he used the power of the nine-tailed demon fox and burst out with four tails, and after the powerful power poured in, he almost lost consciousness, but fortunately, the willpower strengthened by the spirit realm, and his own physical fitness far exceeded that of ordinary people, which fully exerted his due strength, but the result still did not change.

Sasuke is too strong, so strong that he can only look up silently behind his back, and he can't compare with it at all, and he already has the idea that he will definitely grow faster than before, and if this continues, he who was originally the same as Sasuke and Iruka's most valued student can only watch his opponent's back fade away, and he will only be lost in Sasuke's destined extraordinary life path.

Naruto was very unwilling, but what could he do if he was unwilling?

Thinking back to Sasuke's indifferent eyes of indifference after defeating him mercilessly yesterday, and the words that still stinged him until now:

"You can only have this limit without ideas, I really shouldn't have expectations of you, and perhaps, Iruka-sensei shouldn't have any expectations of you, after all, you're just an ordinary person indulging in self-satisfaction called dreams."

That's right, it is absolutely impossible to catch up with Sasuke's footsteps only on the road of dreams, and if you want to really catch up with Sasuke, who is already on the path of implementing the concept at this time, or even surpass him, then you can only be like him, as Iruka said, to become a real strong man who combines strength, will and ideas.

But is the idea that if you have something, you can have it? If it was such a cheap thing, Iruka wouldn't have mentioned it so solemnly to them so many times, and Naruto is not a good thinker, there is no way to get so much out of just one thing like Sasuke, and even if he sees the tragedies that happen almost all the time in the ninja world like Sasuke, it is difficult to get anything out of it.

What's more, Sasuke personally experienced the disaster of exterminating the clan and felt the consciousness of Itachi, who sacrificed himself for the sake of the village, as well as the pain of Itachi, and only then did he realize that he finally got his own idea, but what about Naruto?

Although he has always lived in the disgust and hatred of the villagers as a child, and he will only be treated unfairly wherever he goes, since he was seven years old and Iruka began to serve as his homeroom teacher, his life trajectory has returned to normal, and he has never experienced the pain that almost broke him down like Sasuke, and it would be hellish if he could get the idea like Sasuke did.

As if sensing that Naruto didn't want to deal with him, the Nine-Tails fell silent after a heavy nasal sound.

After a while, when Naruto's wandering thoughts gradually returned, he suddenly felt a warm feeling in his ears, and when he subconsciously turned his head to look over, a soft little face appeared in front of him.

It was a girl Naruto was familiar with, and at this time she was putting her hands on the edge of the bed, her little head resting on the back of her hands, as if she was too tired, and her little face was full of exhaustion.

When he saw that little face, Naruto's deep annoyance inexplicably decreased, as if he had been cured.

"Hinata ......"

Naruto whispered, but Hinata just blinked and let out an inaudible whisper, and her tired face let out an even breath again, and she fell into a deep sleep.

Naruto didn't hear what Hinata was muttering, because he didn't pay attention, he just felt that it was not good for Hinata to sleep like this, and wanted to wake her up and let her go back to sleep.

After discovering that he couldn't wake Hinata, Naruto could only struggle to straighten up, and then reached out his hand, intending to wake her up, but at this moment-

Click!

The sound of the door opening, the next moment, the voice of the big voice of the tooth suddenly penetrated:

"Hey, Hinata, is Naruto awake? If you don't wake up, I'll keep it for you, you've been on guard for a day and a night, you should go back and rest...... ......"

After Ya walked into the ward, he suddenly saw Naruto who was trembling and stretching out his hand towards Hinata, from his point of view, no matter how you look at it, Naruto's current movements are a little obscene, and the corners of Ya's mouth can't help twitching, "Naruto, what do you want to do to Hinata?" ”

Hearing this, Naruto suddenly looked inexplicable, "Huh? Do what? I just ......"

As Naruto spoke, she seemed to be woken up by the loud voice of her teeth, and Hinata who was lying next to the hospital bed suddenly let out a coquettish murmur, and the next moment, she rubbed her sleepy eyes, and after a moment she opened them, and then, she saw a calloused hand.

"Yikes!"

Hinata was startled and instinctively took two steps back, and when she came back to her senses, she finally saw Naruto sitting on the hospital bed looking at her with a puzzled face.

Naruto...... Naruto, you just ...... I...... You ......"

I don't know what came to mind, Hinata's face suddenly flushed, and her speech became incoherent, and seeing her look, her teeth seemed to have determined some facts, and she looked at Naruto with a strange face who hadn't reacted to what was going on until now.

"I'm sorry, I don't seem to have come at the right time, that ...... I'll go first. ”

As he spoke, Ya didn't wait for the two of them to react, and left the ward with a smoke, leaving Naruto with a bewildered face and Hinata with a face full of shyness, if it weren't for the awakening of his ability, Hinata would have fainted a long time ago.

Just when the atmosphere became a little weird, an untimely voice suddenly came from the windowsill:

"Tsk...... With a loud voice, I guess there will be some strange rumors tomorrow, hehe...... I'm looking forward to it. ”

Hearing the familiar voice, Naruto was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned his head to see a man with a scarred face leaning back against the windowsill, looking at him with a meaningful smile on his face.

"Iruka-sensei......"

After seeing Iruka, Naruto was not as elated as usual, and his expression was full of loss, "I...... Am I living up to your expectations? ”

When Naruto and Sasuke were fighting in the Valley of the End in the replica world, Iruka was there, and after witnessing the whole battle, he naturally knew why Naruto was uncharacteristically lost, so he didn't ask, but said:

"Then it depends on what I expect from you." As she spoke, Iruka straightened up, then walked to the chair next to Naruto's bed and sat down, then took the hot tea handed over by the sensible Hinata, and then continued to say to Naruto:

"Don't think about it so much, although you didn't exceed my expectations like Sasuke, but I have never been disappointed in you, in my opinion, you just need to be yourself, those things you deserve must be buried in the path you choose according to your heart, waiting for your discovery~"
