"How...... What's the matter, Mom, am I saying something wrong? ”

Just when Ye Naiyu's facial muscles twitched slightly because of the pharmacist's jealous words, trying to suppress the smile that he almost overflowed. After a long time, he couldn't get Ye Naiyu's reply and response, and he was vaguely aware of Ye Naiyu's smiling behavior, and suddenly felt inexplicably weak for a while. Immediately, while his eyes wandered, he muttered in a low voice as if he was talking to himself.

"Didn't you remember to come to me when you first started because you had to take care of the newly adopted child......

Between the words, because of the longing over the years, it has become stronger and deeper. made the pharmacist Dou naturally, and quietly and completely changed the title of Ye Naiyu from the original decent "dean" to "mother...... And after perceiving the slight change in this title, Ye Naiyu, who already had deep guilt and distress for the medicine master, naturally enjoyed it. So much so that from the moment he reunited with Yakushidou and recognized him, Ye Naiyu acquiesced in the true sense of the word, acquiescing to this mother-son relationship, so he didn't intend to correct and remind him.

It is precisely because of the solid relationship between the adoptive mother and son that the relationship between the two people, who are already concerned about each other, seems to be a lot closer. And let Ye Naiyu in front of the pharmacist, just like facing his own son, and didn't plan to hide anything too much. So much so that not long after the pharmacist was muttering his words, not long after he said it, Ye Naiyu, who was trying to suppress his laughter, couldn't hold it back anymore and laughed out loud.

"Newly adopted child...... Burst...... Hahaha——! ”

Facing Yakushidou's puzzled eyes, he laughed out loud unscrupulously, as if to make Yakushidou feel at ease, so that Ye Naiyu's arms that were originally wrapped around Yaoshidou were retracted a little. Immediately, he lowered his head slightly, looked at the pharmacist's little face, and couldn't help but turn red. With a smile in his eyes, he pursed his mouth slightly, deliberately made a look of being injured and aggrieved, and responded with a gentle voice.

"No wonder I haven't been looking for you for so long...... It turned out that she was eating Naruto's vinegar and hid early, and she didn't want me as a mother anymore? ”

"Huh? Just...... Not at all! How could I not want a mother——! ”

Perhaps it was all over the years that had made Yao Shidou's soul already in a state of panic that was extremely easy to collapse. So much so that even if Yao Shidou knew in his heart, Ye Naiyu's response was just joking with himself. But it was inevitable that after listening to Ye Naiyu's ridiculous words, he was afraid that Ye Naiyu would really have some misunderstanding, or not want himself. While holding the corner of Ye Naiyu's clothes tightly with his hand, he raised his head and hurriedly defended himself with an anxious expression.

"I ...... At that time, I was just not completely sure, my mother really came to look for me, and I saw a strange guy appearing, so I wanted to hide first...... Definitely not hiding from Mom! There is absolutely no meaning of not wanting a mother! ”

Between the words, I don't know if it was because he was too excited and anxious, or if Ye Naiyu's words evoked the nightmare picture that Yao Shidou had often appeared in his mind over the years. The moment the pharmacist's voice just fell, he not only grabbed Ye Naiyu's hands, but also clenched them harder and harder. Even his body, which had been calm, began to tremble violently uncontrollably.

“…… Sorry, Tou, Mommy just wanted to play a joke on you......"

Seeing that the arms were trembling like a frightened rabbit, so that it could almost be said to be like a medicine master for the two of them, so that the smile that originally appeared on Ye Naiyu's face suddenly stiffened and froze. Then he bowed his head apologetically, and gently rested his chin on the top of Yakushidou's head, so as to hug Yakushidou's weak and helpless body firmly behind his arms. swallowed all the ridiculous words that had come to his mouth, and began to comfort the poor little guy with a gentle voice.

"Don't worry, don't be afraid, Mom is here, don't go anywhere......"

Obviously, Ye Naiyu was still misled by the precocious and calm appearance that the pharmacist was trying to maintain on the surface. So much so that in Ye Naiyu's imagination, even because he was also born as a spy ninja, Ye Naiyu could more or less guess how dangerous and terrifying Yakushidou's experience over the years was......

But it was precisely because of the performance of the pharmacist that Ye Naiyu inadvertently forgot - the seemingly mature and stable pharmacist in front of him, no matter how strong he was. But in the final analysis, after all, he is just a child who has a stomach full of bitter water, but has nowhere to vent and confide, and can only endure the grievances silently alone......

"Hmm...... Yes! That's right! ”

Ye Naiyu, who realized this after realizing that he had inadvertently said the wrong thing, suddenly racked his brains and meditated on a topic suitable for distracting the medicine man. So much so that without waiting for the pharmacist to respond to something, he asked tentatively.

"You must be wondering, Mom, why did she suddenly laugh out loud just now, right?"

And then the facts also proved that Ye Naiyu's choice was undoubtedly extremely correct.

“……”

After hearing these words, the pharmacist who was already in the midst of Ye Naiyu's scramble to appease him, and felt a lot more relieved, naturally gradually suppressed the tendency to tremble. Immediately, driven by the curiosity that was aroused again, he pursed his lips and bit it lightly, for fear that he would say something wrong, and nodded slightly silently

"Whew...... Ahem, actually, the little guy you see is not a child from a welfare home. ”

Seeing that he successfully changed the topic as he wished, Ye Naiyu couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief. Then he coughed lightly and cleared his throat. With one hand free, the silver-white soft hair covered with the pharmacist's pocket kept rubbing back and forth to soothe. After a slight pause, he continued thoughtfully.

"However, as for the true identity of the child, what is it...... Mom can only tell you if you can guarantee that you won't take the initiative to tell anyone else. ”

It's not that this is a matter of concern, so that Ye Naiyu subconsciously intends to use the method of "betraying" Naruto's identity as a "candy" to appease Yakushi's emotions. But in a sense, following Naruto's expectations, he made some foreshadowing and introductions in advance for the meeting and acquaintance of these two little guys.

You know, you can get out of your spy career for many years unscathed. Even after retiring, he was still worried about the group. It is enough to prove that the seemingly gentle and kind Ye Naiyu is by no means as simple as she appears on the surface, and it cannot be a vase without scheming! And from the moment Naruto took the initiative to appear and explain his intention to Nonoyu, Nonoyu was vaguely aware that Naruto's true purpose was definitely related to Yakushidou...... Even under Nonoyu's keen intuitive perception, he always inexplicably thought that Naruto's move was to win over Yakushi!

It's just that in the original idea, Nonoyu thought that Naruto, like Danzang, was trying to plot against his mother and son under the banner of goodwill...... But the day after Naruto told the truth, he was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so he personally invited Nonoyu to leave the village to find Yakushidou. Naruto's every move made Nonoyu, who was quietly hiding under deep guard, gradually give up this thought, which now seems to be really ridiculous and funny.

After all, no matter at the moment, in the body of the pharmacist Doushen, who seems to have little effect due to the immaturity of his strength, it can almost be said that there is no crack worth using. After Naruto took the initiative to tell the truth, he not only immediately began to arrange the reunion of the mother and son, but also chose to go together in person...... The various things paid in it are compared to the intrigues and tricks imagined by Ye Naiyu. If we analyze it from the perspective of interests alone, it is enough to call it an "ignorant" act that outweighs the losses!

In addition, not long ago, Naruto did not hesitate to use his body as bait to attract Orochimaru's attention, so that Nonoyu and the others could escape alive and completely get out of danger. It is even more incompatible with Naruto, who does not play according to the routine, and in the impression of Nonoyu, in order to achieve the goal, the ruthless and sinister style of the root organization that can do whatever it takes, seems so incompatible and full of a sense of disobedience. And the price paid here was already far greater than the benefits that Naruto could get from their mother and son. The vigilance that Ye Naiyu initially hid in his heart was quietly transformed into deep gratitude from the bottom of his heart!

In this way, even in Nonoyu's heart, he still couldn't figure out what good it was for Naruto to take so much trouble to help himself so that he could get a happy ending of the reunion of mother and son...... But it didn't prevent Ye Naiyu from following his initial intuitive judgment and making some preparations in advance for the meeting between Yakushidou and Naruto!

Because of this, once Yakushidou met Naruto, and as Nonoyu originally envisioned, the reason why Naruto tried to help Nonoyu was to get Yakushidou's words...... Then, in Nonoyu's opinion, the exposure of Naruto's current identity as the leader of the root organization is only a matter of time. And as long as Yakushidou can guarantee that Naruto's identity that he is trying to hide will not be easily exposed. It won't cause Naruto's disgust, or cause any trouble for Naruto, who is trying to keep his low profile!

"Huh? What the? That little guy isn't a child adopted by a welfare home......?! ”

At the same time, he didn't know that Ye Naiyu had thought about so many pharmacists during this period, and he had already been attracted by Ye Naiyu's topic, which completely diluted the panic in his heart. is even more thinking about chewing and digesting repeatedly, because of the pharmacist's straightforward explanation, dispelling the misunderstanding accumulated in the pharmacist's heart. made the pharmacist stunned, and suddenly couldn't help but exclaim.

"It's not a welfare home, it's not my mother's newly adopted son...... Whew, that's great...... Belch...... Ahem! I mean...... It's a pity, I thought that such a cute child could enjoy the mother's meticulous care and spoiling! ”

As the misunderstanding was resolved, the medicine man muttered to himself, and the smile began to gradually return to his face. Immediately, under the gaze of Ye Naiyu, he suddenly raised his hand in embarrassment, and scratched his head embarrassedly. While deliberately coughing a few times in succession to hide the smile on his face, it seemed a little inappropriate. While raising his palm, he blinked his eyes and continued with an innocent face.

"Of course, Mom, I promise, I will never tell anyone about the identity of this child! Well, there's ...... At this time, do I need to swear a poisonous oath or something? ”

"Poof...... It seems that your kid has made great progress in the past few years, but it's not just strength...... Flim tongue, I don't know who you learned badly from. ”

Seeing that Yao Shidou's mood obviously changed from cloudy to sunny, and even quite idle, his face was full of innocence, and he patted his cute appearance seriously. While Ye Naiyu's mind relaxed, he couldn't help but laugh out loud. Immediately, he put on a straight face, pretending to be serious and complaining and teasing the pharmacist.

"It's better to swear a poisonous oath or something, right...... If that kind of thing were useful, our mother and son wouldn't have been separated for so long, would we? ”

"Talent...... I didn't learn badly...... It's just that when I was training with the organization, I trained a little bit! ”

Seeing Ye Naiyu's serious appearance with a deliberately straight face, he was afraid that Ye Naiyu would really regard himself as a bad boy pharmacist, and he was suddenly shocked. It wasn't until he noticed the undisguised ridicule from Ye Naiyu's continued words that he breathed a sigh of relief. Then he stammered in a tone, and while returning to his normal and casual appearance, he nodded slightly in agreement as if he realized the meaning of Ye Naiyu's words.

"That's right...... However, it was a little late. But Lord Tuanzang, he can be regarded as fulfilling his promise...... After all, if it weren't for the sudden transfer of orders from Tuanzang-sama, I would not have given up the mission and returned here halfway, let alone reunited with my mother. If you look like this, Lord Tuanzang is really a good person with affection and righteousness...... Alas? Mom, why are you looking at me like that? ”

It's a pity that before Yao Shidou finished saying the emotional words in his mouth, Ye Naiyu's obviously like a smile could hardly be suppressed, and the funny appearance of his face trembling slightly and distorting made Yao Shidou vaguely aware that something was wrong. Immediately subconsciously swallowed his saliva at the same time, in order to avoid his own embarrassment, he quickly changed his mouth and asked puzzledly.

"Did I say something wrong again? Or ......"

"I ...... Misunderstood Danzo-sama? ”
