On the outskirts of the capital lies a beautiful lakeside plateau, with its tree-lined and mirror-clear surface, and countless pale yellow unknown wildflowers stretching out into the distance under a blue sky that makes one wonder if it is painted. "Words * love * first * hair

Surrounded by these bright colors, there is a townhouse that is as delicate as a work of art. It is said to be like a work of art, but for a work of art, it is indeed too much.

On the rooftop, two ninjas wearing Konoha forehead guards were chatting, ah no, sentry.

"Daimyo-sama will really enjoy it, the Daimyo's Mansion is already one of the most gorgeous buildings in the country, and even the suburban courtyards are not inferior." The young ninja in sunglasses sighed.

Hearing this, the ninja next to him, who looked younger than him, said while holding a thousand books, "Aoba-san, is it really okay to say such things?" We're now serving as the Daimyo-sama's bodyguard. ”

Yamashiro Aoba laughed twice: "I'm just talking casually." I don't know what I saw, my eyes flashed under my sunglasses, and I added, "Don't tell Kakashi, please!" Genma-kun. ”

Genma's face was full of doubts: "What's the matter with Kassi-san at the level?" ”

Yamashiro Aoba was silent, and raised his chin to signal him to look for himself. Genma turned his head to look, and saw a young man and his girl dating in the courtyard below—a big misunderstanding! The single Genma youth squinted his eyes as he was stunned by the heart-shaped flashbang that lingered around the young couple (pseudo).

"The sun is surprisingly bright today." Genma raised a palm above his forehead, and the blazing sun baked his palms hot.

Yamashiro Aoba looked up at the big sun above his head, and then at a couple (pseudo) in the courtyard, probably out of a background to talk about his companion's future father-in-law (?). The young man in sunglasses thought for a moment and said as if he had come to a conclusion: "In this way, the princess and Kakashi are not completely impossible." ”

Genma also followed his line of sight, and Qianben moved with his mouth one by one, but it didn't fall: "How is it possible, those two people ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something, and the words changed: "Aoba-san, did you read some strange books?" ”

Yamashiro Aoba's expression was distorted for a moment, and he coughed twice unnaturally: "Ahem, cai, cai, no." How could I read that kind of book like Tenzo-kun! Genma, are you worried about it...... Ha. The dry laughter was worrisomely weak.

Genma: "...... I didn't even mention Tenzo-kun. ”

Several drops of cold sweat continued to slide down from the forehead of Yamashiro Aoba.

After a brief silence—

"That book seems to be called ......"

“…… The story of Rikako and Cassie. ”

"Be quiet! Worst! Kakashi-san has seen it! ”

"Anyway, calm down first!"

On the roof under the blue sky, two promising young Konoha ninja wolf bèi are like unlucky people who have done something wrong and have been caught.

- In fact, I can't hear it from such a distance, and sure enough, honest people are easy to be thieves

***

"What are you looking at?" The girl tugged at the sleeve of the young man beside her, and curiously followed him in the same direction, where there was only a brown roof and two vaguely panicked Konoha ninjas on the roof.

The girl seemed to recognize them: "It's Sunglasses Crow-kun and Senben-kun." ”

The corner of the young man's eyes twitched slightly: "...... It's Aoba and Genma. ”

What's the deal with calling people by their personal characteristics like this? By analogy, could it be that Asma is the cigarette king, the moonlight blast is the cough king, and Akai is the watermelon head king, and he is ...... Face Mask-kun? - Enough, don't think about such a terrible thing anymore.

Kakashi didn't know she had this penchant for nicknames.

The girl pouted disapprerovingly: "It's just that I forgot the name of Jì for a while." Then he pouted as if he was unwilling and said, "You still dare not pay attention by my side, what is there to look at those two people." ”

“…… Suddenly, I felt two sneaky glances, and I was a little concerned. ”

The girl immediately opened her eyes and looked over: "Sneaky? Have it? ”

The two figures on the roof seemed to be resisting the urge to disappear in an instant.

Kakashi scratched his silver hair and laughed, "Well, maybe it's my delusion." ”

The girl immediately turned her head to glare at him, puffed out her cheeks and said indignantly, "Hmph, I think you are the one who wants to sneak away such a sneaky idea!" ”

- I've thought about it, yes. The silver-haired young man sneered indifferently, "Princess, you are so careful, how could I have that kind of thought." ”

"Really, not?"

“…… Swear by my character. ”

“…… What a worthless oath. ”

Kakashi slumped his shoulders and glared at the dead fish's eyes - don't think that you can belittle someone else's character if you're a princess! He just loves to read little yellow books, and it has nothing to do with character, okay!

The unreasonable girl wrinkled her nose and continued to complain: "The vow to take me to see the water lily festival has not been fulfilled, it is really bad to be a man!" ”

If you want to add to the crime, there is no excuse - the silver-haired ninja can't help but defend himself: "...... I don't remember committing to it. ”

The girl's bright big eyes were filled with anger: "Didn't I tell you about the day of the Daimyo Mansion Guards and the Konoha Ninja Competition!" ”

“…… Didn't I refuse? ”

"Didn't I reject your refusal!"

It took a full two seconds for this awkward sentence to float into the young man's brain, and a handsome face under the mask of the first technician distorted into a bitter gourd face—what was the tragic situation of this unreasonable and unreasonable no matter how you said it, and all the mistakes were his fault? I always feel that the generation gap between him and the girl in front of him is deeper than the nasolabial folds of the eldest son of Uchiha?

For the first time, the twenty-one-year-old young and promising first technician of Konoha wondered if he had already stepped into the stage of a middle-aged (obscene) uncle.

Just when he was about to give up normal communication with the sixteen-year-old girl and find an excuse to slip away, the girl unexpectedly restrained her angry eyes, her white cheeks were still bulging, but she didn't know when there was a faint touch of the color of roses in the sunset.

"Forget it...... I'll forgive you this time. The girl said with an awkward expression.

- This sentence is becoming more and more familiar.

Although he didn't feel that he had done anything that needed to be forgiven, the young man didn't continue to pursue it, but he didn't say it as casually as before, thank you.

A puzzled look appeared in the only right eye that appeared outside the mask, and he did not immediately look away from her.

Speaking of which, this was the first time Rika, the princess of the Land of Fire, had made eye contact with a handsome young man for more than ten seconds.

There is a little rabbit in the heart that arches with its furry head.

It's very gentle, it's very gentle, itchy, but it's very comfortable.

Pink heart-shaped bubbles seem to pop up at any moment.

At such a meaningful moment-

The silver-haired young man tilted his head, and although the question mark on the back of his head was not yet tangible, the expression that was so slow that it made people want to beat up was enough to destroy the pink atmosphere at this time.

No matter how many copies of "Intimacy Paradise" I read, I can't see through the girl's heart (╯_╰)

No matter how much she liked it, he wouldn't take it seriously.

Rika looked away a little wolfly, and the roots of her ears were the same color as those of her lips with lip gloss, but her big beautiful eyes revealed a very shallow but not negligible gloom.

After a while, a muffled voice burst out: "What a hopeless super-level, big, stupid, and stupid egg!" Although it was a curse, the tone was unexpectedly aggrieved.

"You don't have to say that about yourself."

"Say you!!"

was scolded inexplicably, and the eyes of the more aggrieved first technician Dead Fish were full of innocence.

Obviously, the three seniors of Pig Deer Butterfly and Akai Tenzo were separated to protect the daimyo couple and Hidetoku, and he was the only one who was sent to protect Princess Rika - the old man of the Hokage was definitely deliberate.

However, even if he questioned the old fox in the skin of a kind elder, he would only be easily blocked by Kakashi, who was a ninja and couldn't just pick his favorite mission. The old man sitting in the Hokage's exclusive seat smiled and spat out wisps of smoke into the air, his white beard moving up and down: "Well, at least one of you and the princess is happy with this arrangement, isn't this already very good." ”

“…… I would be happier with a different arrangement. ”

"Hehe, didn't Watergate teach you, it's a man's responsibility to make girls happy."

"Mr. Watergate doesn't teach this kind of thing."

"yes, it's a pity. Obviously, after inheriting this fine character from me, I passed it on to Watergate, but I didn't expect it to be cut off from you, what a pity. ”

A certain Konoha genius who seemed to have committed some unforgivable mistake couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth: "............ I'm so sorry about that. ”

The first technician of Konoha has never had any objections or complaints about the mission since he became a ninja, except for the past two years, when it is a mission related to a certain princess. The reason why she wanted to avoid too much contact with the girl was not because she was too noble to offend, nor because she was stubborn and difficult to serve, but because—when she said that she liked him, a face was like a star that suddenly shone in the ordinary night, and it was frighteningly beautiful.

Even though she knew that it was the innocent and innocent words of an adolescent girl who could not stand up to scrutiny (although she herself did not realize it), the silver-haired genius was concerned that she was not completely sure that she could handle the relationship between the two perfectly.

If you think about it carefully, Kakashi Hachiki is a man who is saying that he is getting more and more tactful and decent, but in the face of a girl who likes him with all his heart, he is still clumsy - he doesn't want the other party to have expectations of him, and he doesn't want to hurt anyone.

It's been like this since a long, long time ago, from the time when the girl named Harano Lin liked him.

- Really, I haven't grown at all over the years, and I dare to call myself a genius.

For the time being, put aside the affairs of these children's long-term love.

Unlike the peaceful and tranquil suburban courtyards, the Daimyo's Mansion in the center of the capital is engaged in a fierce battle that is about to go down in history.

In the summer of Konoha 55, the Guardian Ninja Twelve Warriors of the Daimyo's Guardian Corps were officially divided. The radical faction led by Wama plotted a rebellion to coerce the Daimyo to abolish the Konoha Ninja Village and invade the surrounding small countries, but fortunately, the Daimyo had already noticed it and secretly entrusted Konoha to move the family to a safe place, causing the conspiracy of Wama and others to fail.

In addition, the conservatives led by Ji-6 and Asma, as well as several Konoha ninja squads who came to support, faced the radical rebels in the Daimyo's mansion.

The final result was a big victory for the conservatives and Konoha in unison.

However, the 12 Guardian Ninja Warriors, who created a legendary guardian team directly under the Daimyo of the Fire Nation, only two people, Ji6 and Asma, survived.
