Ino, who was nervous and trembling, and Shikamaru, who felt excited and curious inexplicably...... With the completely different reactions shown by the two, Naruto, who was slowly approaching step by step, finally gradually stopped, and stood in a position that was only one or two positions away from the two, which could almost be said to be face-to-face. Then he leaned over a little, slowly put Hinata, who was covering his face in his arms, and stood firm on the ground, and hugged his arms around his waist again.

"Oh——! By the way, yes, I remember, you just seem to have a question for me......"

As he spoke, Naruto shifted his gaze slightly, crossed Shikamaru's shoulder, and looked at Ino, who was curled up behind Shikamaru trying to hide his presence for a moment, and bent his eyes and smiled as he made the smile on his face brighter.

"I remember you asked me and wanted to know who I am?"

Hearing Naruto's words turn sharply, his attention was obviously focused on himself, and Ino couldn't help but subconsciously curl up more and more. In a panic, he looked around, as if he wanted to find a crack in the ground that he could burrow into, intending to hide himself from Naruto's gaze.

“……！ No, no, no——! I'm not, I don't! ”

In a panicked response, Ino shook his head again and again, and was pale and powerless to deny, not only did he lose his previous naughty energy, but he was also so frightened that he almost sat on the ground and cried in Naruto's gentle questioning.

"No, of course you have...... You've only asked me for a long time, can't you forget it so quickly? ”

After seeing Ino's panicked and incoherent appearance, Naruto's eyes couldn't help but smile more and more, and then tilted his head and blinked his eyes, making an innocent appearance, and continued to speak with some point.

"At least, after you've made such a deep impression on me, I remember this issue clearly......"

As soon as the words fell, before the two in front of him could react, Naruto freed his right hand from Hinata's waist and slowly stretched out his hand to the two of them under the pitiful gaze of Ino's increasingly desperate and helpless eyes......

This move is combined with the "problem" deliberately raised earlier and the dull coercion that gradually spreads invisibly. Suddenly, Shikamaru and Ino subconsciously thought that Naruto was planning to get serious and settle accounts with them.

"Tsk, trouble...... After all, I still couldn't dodge it. ”

Although he is afraid of trouble, he confides in his usual mantra. But even so, Shikamaru still stood firmly in place, keeping Ino's panicked petite figure firmly behind him. His eyes grew more and more resolute, staring at Naruto's gaze from beginning to end. Without the slightest thought of retreating, even the trembling legs gradually regained their composure unconsciously, and their bodies stood firmly in place like iron nails.

"Oh? Until now, I won't get out of the way...... Are you ready to protect her all the time? ”

The path of progress was blocked, and Naruto's outstretched hand naturally froze in the air. Then he raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at it, and asked word by word.

"Well, that's it...... I'm sorry, though I've always been afraid of trouble. But under my father's education, I still know more or less ......"

Between the words, Shikamaru seemed to have made up his mind, and the burden and pressure in his heart were swept away

And Sora can also respond unhurriedly when faced with Naruto's inquiries. After the corners of his mouth rose slightly, he gradually revealed a shrewd smile that was neither humble nor arrogant.

"Even at some point, it's so bad that it can't get any worse. But as a dignified man...... I must not allow myself to leave my friends behind and be a wreck with no escape! ”

"Manly...... Well...... I see. ”

After hearing Shikamaru's response, Naruto's words were still tepid and he couldn't hear half of his joy and anger. With a smile on his face as usual, he tilted his head slightly, hiding the gratification and approval that flashed in his eyes, and slowly stretched out his paused palm forward again.

"Since you are so persistent, then I will fulfill you...... Let's start with you! ”

"Hmph, that's exactly what I want."

After it has been determined that his group of people is about to usher in the end of elimination, the pressure in Shikamaru's heart has been reduced a lot. While the expression on his face returned to his former lazy appearance, he began to secretly think about how to deal with his mother who was waiting for good news at home after returning home. In order not to let yourself face the "extra meal" and eat a meal of fried meat with feather duster.

However, just when Shikamaru thought that everything was over, Naruto's next move surprised him, and he experienced the thrill of ascending from hell to heaven!

Naruto's palm, which was getting closer, was not intended to attack Shikamaru and Ino in retaliation...... Instead, he grabbed one of Shikamaru's stretched hands, and slowly shook it up and down quite softly.

And this unexpected move of the person in front of him naturally interrupted Shikamaru's thoughts, and his consciousness was recalled to his body little by little.

Feeling it up close, Shikamaru could clearly affirm that there was not the slightest malice in the gaze that Naruto in front of him looked at him, and even in the gaze that was cast on Ino by bypassing his figure later. But because of this, Naruto's act of repaying his grievances with virtue made Shikamaru feel a little trance unreal, and he began to wonder if he was in a strange and strange dream.

"Ahh......h

When his body shook his arm under instinctive control, in response to Naruto's voluntary handshake full of goodwill, Shikamaru suddenly felt that his mind could not turn around. After a moment of dumbfounding, the courage brewed from the broken jar dissipated in an instant, and he stammered and subconsciously sought answers from Naruto.

"It's ...... What's going on? You're not going to ...... Knock us out? ”

"Poof...... Hahaha! Where do you want to go, knock you out? Why would I do that? ”

After hearing Shikamaru's incomprehensible words, Naruto, who was already smiling in his eyes, finally couldn't suppress the smile hidden in his heart, and after a snort, he raised his head and laughed.

"As I already said, didn't you just ask me and want to know who I am?"

After a long while, Fang Cai lifted his right hand from the corner of his eyes as he let go of the right hand that was holding Shikamaru's palm, and withdrew it as he withdrew and lifted it up a little, wiping the tears that were laughing from the corners of his eyes. Ino and Shikamaru, who were stunned, smiled and shook their heads. Then he continued with a smile on his face.

"My name is Naruto Uzumaki...... When you meet for the first time, please advise. ”
