Hinata was sitting on the mat as dignified as usual but couldn't calm down, looking at her brother Ninji and the brother named Naruto fighting in the distance,

My father said that they were practicing physical arts, and that they would start practicing this way when they were older.

The sound of the blow on my body made me feel a pain just by listening to it, even though I hadn't been beaten yet......

…… Will it be Brother Ning Ci who wins today?

Hinata clenched her small fist hidden under her long sleeves with some expectation, and blinked and looked at the two people who were fighting seriously.

Naruto likes to study, but prefers skin.

After studying for a while and sleeping for a while, he became more and more energetic, and he also found that the adults were not there - it was a good opportunity to bully people!

Naruto dodged Ninji's palm as he thought about how he would fight back next, and then realized that he didn't have any normal way to attack.

Imitate the bricks with the palm of your hand and call out on your head? Don't, they're pretty good-looking, they're still a genius, it's not good to be stupid or disfigured.

Although Obito ruined half of his face, he still had some charm, and Ning was ruined if he ruined it...... If you open your eyes later, the tendon burst can probably scare the children of the ninja school crying, and at night, it can probably scare the people who have just graduated - after Ibiki took off the forehead guard on her skull, she calmed down the entire examination room.

However, if you go out without a forehead protector, the snow will form a snow nest on your head in winter, and after a while, it will melt away due to the temperature of your skull, and then it will become a puddle like on a rainy day.

…… Well, maybe in the spring there will be small birds nesting on it.

Naruto ran in circles around Ninji, and it wasn't fast, it was the distance that Ninji was just able to catch up with but was only a little bit close to hit.

"Ah, there's someone over there!! Who is it!!! ”

Naruto suddenly pointed to the place where Ninji was facing his back after going around half a circle.

“！？”

Ning Ci hurriedly turned his head.

…… Did someone you don't know break in? Hinata-sama must be protected——......

All he saw was Hinata, who was looking at him and blinking suspiciously.

There was no one else but the three of them.

"There's an opportunity—"

Naruto laughed like a sinister black fox and quickly crouched down and grabbed his calf and pulled it at his side.

'Poof'

Ninji tried to twist himself to prop himself up on the way down, but he only twisted halfway before he fell uncontrollably - but he had been practicing physical skills longer than Naruto, and he reacted quickly unless he was careless.

So he hooked Naruto with one arm and brought him down with him.

The shoulder touched the ground first, and Naruto was directly hugged by his head, but the reason for having an arm to protect him was that he didn't knock the scoop open, but he was still very dizzy after such a shake.

"Hmm,"

Seeing this, Hinata fidgeted and tugged at her sleeve, she wanted to go over, but her father let her stay here and didn't let herself talk casually.

…… What should I do? They're going to be fine, right??

She was so anxious that she was about to cry, and her face was a lot redder.

Ninji and Naruto are not tall, and the fall is lighter than the fight, but at least in this situation, there is no way to continue fighting immediately.

Naruto hugged Ninji like a liar, and he couldn't live or die.

He was still a little round and fat, and Ning Ci's arm was also pressed and he couldn't push up with one arm, and he could only kick him away by kicking, but that would be too rude.

Hinata was a little overwhelmed.

ㅤ

When Kakashi and the other two parents returned, they saw this picture of Naruto bullying other children.

Although Naruto was younger than Ninji, Kakashi felt that Ninji was the younger one.

Hiza didn't think that his child was being bullied, but wondered if Ninji was bullying Naruto.

“……”

After a while, they started fighting.

Although I was playing before, that fight was just practice, and this ...... It's a fight, right?

Hinata frowned.

"Father, Father, Father......"

Hinata looked at them and wept.

"Ningci, what are you doing?"

Hiza took a deep breath and asked his own son over there.

"I ......"

Ning Ci didn't know how to explain it.

…… I was deceived by this person in a very simple way! It would be humiliating to say it.

Naruto turned his head to look at Kakashi on the ground, and without saying anything, he grabbed Ninji's arm with his palm and helped himself up, and ran to Kakashi's side with his arms open.

Kakashi knew that the child wanted to be hugged again, so he squatted down and picked the child up with some helplessness.

He was a little worried about Ning Ci, and he didn't know if he had been injured.

Ning Ci pursed his mouth and didn't take the initiative to speak, silently got up from the ground and rubbed his arms and shoulders.

…… Next time, whoever comes...... All...... Not.

Before Ningji's determination had even begun, he became depressed at the thought of Hinata-sama, the patriarch, and his father.

…… Alas.

If something like this happened again, he felt that he would still be deceived.

Because it wouldn't be good if Hinata-sama was really in danger!

He's here to protect Hinata-sama!

Ning Ci clenched his little fist in his heart.

ㅤ

Anyway, it couldn't be fought for the time being, and when they arrived at Hinata's house, it was almost time to prepare lunch, and just now Kakashi and Hizoku talked about their future plans, and Hinata expressed his understanding, and then invited them to eat together at noon - and then left the room without refusing, and went to the person who prepared the lunch and asked them to make two more servings.

Hinata patted Kakashi on the shoulder and persuaded him to stay and eat.

Kakashi thought that this might be the last time he would come here to practice, and after hesitating for a while, he agreed.

ㅤ

Kakashi sat down with Naruto in his arms, and Hinata obediently stood up beside his father and returned his position.

Hinata beckoned to Ning Ci, and Ning Ci stood by his father's side like this.

Only Naruto was the only child in the audience, and Kakashi was counted if he was a little older.

Kakashi felt like the kind of person who doted on children in particular, and compared to these people, he looked like the kind of 'parent' who had to make room for Naruto even if he didn't sit down.

…… Well, that's right.

If Naruto really deliberately bullied himself like that, Kakashi felt that there was a high probability that he would not refuse.

Lose face......? Was there a time when he was not ashamed during the time he was with the child?

He couldn't even think of many examples himself.

ㅤ

Hizoku began to talk to Kakashi and Hiza about the child, but he didn't mention Hinata.

Chatting and chatting turned from the children's training to a homely conversation. In the end, for some reason, it developed into a conversation about 'how to make fish delicious'.

Naruto raised his hand in particular enthusiasm, telling them that Kakashi's fish was a masterpiece in the world.

"Really? Then I have to try it when I have a chance. ”

Hizoku smiled rarely, and then straightened his face and began to talk about the next topic that didn't make much sense.
