The words were divided into two ends, when "Naruto" and Sasuke, who were almost late, successfully stepped into the school, and inadvertently, attracted more attention and curiosity from Ninji. Naruto, Shisui and Itachi, who were far away from the village, had already finished enjoying the chilled red bean paste cooked by Mikoto herself. Immediately squinting and experiencing the coolness brought by the red bean paste, while taking a little rest to recover his mental fatigue, Naruto finally freed his hand and began to restore the chakra for the two of them, while quietly immersing his mind in his chakra, just like he did with the pig, deer and butterfly trio before, trying to strengthen the bodies of the two.

"Ahh Ahh Yes...... Ahhhh......h Yes......! Ahh ”

And in this process, I don't know whether to say that I have a good heart, or because of my natural intuition, so that when the distance is so far away, Itachi still faintly senses the "Naruto's" pushing behavior. Immediately, after an inexplicable itch on the tip of his nose, he involuntarily sneezed several loud sneeze in succession, which really attracted the attention of Naruto and Shisui completely.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa——! It's really a lot of movement, Itachi...... Hey, are you alright? The sudden reaction is so exaggerated, could it be that the red bean paste you just ate is too icy, which makes you 'weak and not replenished' and causes a cold, right? ”

Subconsciously followed the sound and looked sideways, and after seeing the embarrassed and funny appearance of his best friend, who had been teased by the Itachi Mending Knife before, he felt a sense of psychological balance for no reason. After a slight pause, the corners of his mouth gradually rose, revealing a hint of schadenfreude and a teasing smile, half-jokingly and half-seriously teasing and asking.

"Or ...... Is there a little beauty in the village who has a crush on you who is thinking about you, and it turns out that your real girlfriend Izumi finds out, so the jealous Izumi begins to whisper your name, and then is telepathically detected by your little boyfriend? ”

"No kidding, I...... Putting aside the fact that there are no other little beauties who have a crush on me, Izumi is not a girl who can be shaken so easily, and I only need Izumi to have one girl by my side. ”

Subconsciously didn't have the air to respond, and was about to directly refute his best friend's ridiculous words, when the corner of his eye swept over, so that Itachi inadvertently saw the playful smile hidden in the eyes of Zhishui, and let the words on his lips be interrupted under the warning of the sudden sense of crisis in his heart. Immediately, because of being with Naruto for a long time, Itachi instantly sensed from the familiar eyes of his best friend that he had set himself a trap and was waiting for himself to drill into it stupidly. As a result, under the urging of the extremely strong desire to survive in the body, almost in an instant, he made a straightforward answer without any delay.

"Besides, in my heart, there will always be only one girl, Quan."

"Tsk...... The desire to survive is strong, Itachi-san...... Unfortunately, I thought I would get some windfall. ”

And just as the Itachi subconsciously perceived the crisis, it was not just the water that waited to catch the language loopholes in Itachi's straightforward answer, which was used to tease and tease the Weasel. Even Naruto, who put his hands on their shoulders and seemed to be seriously replenishing the chakra for the two, was secretly complaining, and consciously or unconsciously lowered his head a little, looking at his jacket pocket—or the small recording device lying quietly in the seemingly tightly closed jacket pocket.

"I turned on the recording function in advance, and I thought about giving my sister-in-law a 'surprise' to see how Itachi-san would solve the crisis caused by this slip of the tongue, but I didn't expect it to be noticed by Itachi-san so quickly...... The routine of stopping the water is really too simple...... This level, for Itachi-san, who has been teased by me every once in a while, so that now he has already experienced a hundred battles, it is not enough to watch it~"

Compared to Naruto, who was directly adapted to Itachi's "divine reaction", according to the old cognition, he was surprised by this unexpected answer.

"With the low emotional intelligence of that guy, how could it be possible for that guy to react so quickly in this regard......"

While remaining silent, Shizui looked Itachi's figure up and down with suspicious eyes, as if he was distressed about something, his eyes slightly narrowed and his brows furrowed. It wasn't until the weasel was stared at by the water that he was uncomfortable all over his body that he joked seriously.

"So, you're certainly not a weasel...... Tell me who you really are! Say it! ”

"Huh......? Don't make a fuss, stop the water, I'm ...... Where is my emotional intelligence low? ”

Between words, because he had spied on Naruto's memories, Itachi had some understanding of how he was originally just a character in a comic. And because of the fact that in the original description, "I" will be easily tempted by Izumi with three-color balls, and I turned my gaze a little weakly, and while staggering the teasing gaze of my best friend, I involuntarily shrunk my neck. After a pause, in order not to give his best friend a chance to continue to ridicule him, he repeated his old trick, and while looking at Naruto's figure out of the corner of his eye, he tried to change the topic in a serious manner.

"Then again, you're thinking about something weird...... I'm only nine years old now, stop the water! Nine-year-old children, having emotional intelligence is really a ghost! Now, Naruto, am I right? ”

“…… It should be said that he is worthy of being the brother of the small group fan...... The skill of pushing the pot, the speed at which I learned and mastered it, is much faster than Sasuke'......"

In a sense, Naruto, who had been emotionally intelligent at the age of three, how could he not know that Itachi was leading the troubles to the east, and planned to let himself solve the current dilemma for him openly. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, he rolled his eyes, and muttered and complained in his heart angrily. While estimating that the chakra of the two of them had almost recovered, he stood up after implanting the "seeds" that were the finishing touches into the two of them, coughed lightly, quickly turned around, and strode forward before Shisui and Itachi could react.

"Ahem...... Yes! It occurred to me that we were almost done resting and that it was time to get back on our way...... Hurry up, move quickly, and if we delay any longer, we won't be able to reach the next village before dark, so we will have to sleep directly in this wilderness. ”

“…… What's wrong with him? Why did you suddenly remember that it was time to go? ”

Because of Naruto's ignorance, Shisui felt sincere admiration and recognition for Naruto's ability to easily replenish Chakra's deep heritage for himself and Itachi at the same time, and saw Naruto's inexplicably nervous appearance, and became more and more curious. I couldn't help but stand up slowly, and after receiving Naruto's recovery and strengthening, my body was full of refreshment and refreshment as if Mimi had slept well. He raised his eyebrows and looked at Naruto's back as he quickly walked away, and whispered to his best friend beside him.

"Did we just say something wrong?"

"Hmm...... The feeling of skinning once in a while is really good......"

Out of his understanding of Naruto's memory and personality, Itachi easily guessed Naruto's "abnormal" behavior in advance. And after seeing that Naruto was the same as he thought, he revealed that he seemed to be as serious and stable as an old dog, but in fact he was so panicked that he ran away. The smile in Itachi's eyes was even brighter, and while muttering to himself in his heart, he turned his head sideways according to the sound. The corners of his mouth involuntarily rose slightly, revealing a smile at the same time, he spread his hands innocently, and responded to his best friend with a joke.

"Well, a-la-la-la-la...... Most of the time the little guy was weak and didn't dare to answer. ”

"Huh? Guilty? What does that mean......"

Itachi's answer was obviously subconscious, still because of the significant age difference on the surface, and more or less Naruto was regarded as just a precocious "little" child. I couldn't help but instinctively raise my eyebrows a little, and while picking up the luggage backpack that had been thrown on the ground earlier, and carrying it firmly on my body again, I tilted my head slightly, and continued with a straight heart.

"It's just a child about the same age as your brother, what can be so kind? It can't be that he already has a girlfriend at his age, right? ”

"Uh...... Stop water? On this subject, in fact, ......"

After hearing that his best friend had inadvertently guessed the truth, he also bent down and was about to pick up his bags and go on the road, and suddenly he was stunned as if he had been pressed to pause. After unhappily putting his bags back on his back, he tried to suppress the smile in his eyes, and while looking at his best friend with sympathetic eyes, he reached out and patted Zhishui's shoulder.

"Huh? What's wrong? Suddenly called ...... Oh no, no, no, no, no, it can't ......"

Perhaps because of the repeated stimulation, the water stop that the three views were gradually shattered and rebuilt was faintly improved, and the reaction ability was rapidly improved. So much so that he subconsciously turned his head and saw Itachi's distorted and funny face full of sympathy, but wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and in a moment of astonishment, he realized what Itachi might want to express. Then he opened his mouth wide in disbelief and stood still, his voice trembling and continuing in fits and starts.

"Just kidding...... You're not trying to tell me, little one...... You really already have a girlfriend, right?! ”

The devastated appearance of his best friend in front of him reminded Itachi more and more of the time when he first met Naruto, and regarded Naruto as a warm-hearted and obedient little angel, which led to the fact that for a long time in the future, Sanguan was frequently pressed on the ground and rubbed to refresh himself. I can't help but feel a lot of emotion in my heart.

"Alas...... Unfortunately, you guessed it right...... I know it's hard to believe, but ...... As far as I know, Naruto, the little guy, does already have a girlfriend of the same age. ”

After a pause, sighing slightly, Itachi suddenly subconsciously patted Zhishui's shoulder with sympathy. But at the same time, under the subtle influence caused by the accumulation of time with Naruto, he involuntarily added casually.

So, in other words...... Stop the water, in the three of us. In fact, you are the only one with the lowest emotional intelligence and no girlfriend. ”

“……”

“……”

I didn't expect that my best friend would make up for himself at this juncture, and I didn't control the weasel who complained inexplicably in my heart, so that after this sentence blurted out, the atmosphere between the two suddenly became silent and silent. In addition, not only did Zhishui be killed by Itachi's words to complete the fatal blow, but it can be said that it suffered a huge amount of real damage in addition to the effect. Itachi felt a cold tingling sensation on his back under the increasingly sharp gaze of his best friend.

But this strange atmosphere didn't last long, and it didn't take long for the cold look in Zhishui's eyes to melt suddenly......

It's a pity that when the gentle and gentle smile of the past returned, facing the familiar appearance of his best friend, it made the sense of crisis in Itachi's heart more and more intense.

“…… Itachi Uchiha. ”

"Uh...... I...... I'm ......"

After being called by the person in front of him for a long time, a chill representing danger instantly swept through his body. While making the weasel root and cold hair, he responded with an embarrassed trembling face, and looked around to determine which direction was more suitable for escape, and then began to slowly move his pace according to the escape route he had conceived in his heart, quietly moving away from the water stop with a "kind" smile on his face.

"How...... What's wrong? ”

"It seems like we've not fought each other for a long time since you graduated from ninja school, right?"

Sensing Itachi's panicked retreat, the smile on Shisui's face became more and more vigorous, intentionally or unintentionally. Then, when Itachi looked around and was distracted, he raised his hand and made a seal gesture that only appeared during ninja training. Without waiting for the weasel to react and refuse or run away, he threw off his backpack again and quickly rushed towards the weasel who was retreating one after another.

"It just so happens that there is still some time, so let's have a 'little' good 'exchange'!"

"It's not...... Wait a minute, calm down and stop the water, you listen to me explain, I really didn't mean to ...... just now Other...... Don't ——! ”

……

Just as Shisui and Itachi began a "harmonious and pleasant" ninja sparring, Naruto, who was the first to set off, also paused curiously because of the strange movement coming from behind him.

"Ahhh......h I don't know what the water stop-san and the itachi-san are doing...... I haven't caught up for so long, why did I make such a big move...... Could it be...... Belch...... Probably not, since he accepted his sister-in-law, then Itachi-san should be a straight man......"

Listening to the noisy roar not far away, after the small group fan, even Itachi could not escape his influence, and Naruto, who was gradually contaminated with a little belly black attribute called "skin", and was unaware of the fact that he directly broke his leg, suddenly seemed to be a monk who was confused, and under this sudden abnormal sound, and Itachi faintly, there were bursts of reverie begging for mercy, and his expression became more and more strange and weird. Then he shrugged his shoulders unconsciously, and simply stood in place, waiting for the two to be able to follow as soon as possible and not fall behind. While taking out the map from his backpack again, he secretly estimated the location of his group, turned around a little, and looked up at the fork in the road behind him.

"Speaking of which, if the map doesn't make a mistake, if you go to the left, you should go straight to Shayin Village...... Although going this way, it will make the trip a little faster. But in doing so, you'll miss the small village in the territory of the Grass Country......"

"So...... Let's try our luck with a little detour. Let's see if at this point in time, I can find the little guy who is a descendant of the Uzumaki clan like me! ”

“…… Then again, who took the broken name of the country of grass? Don't they feel awkward when they read it themselves, or call themselves it?! ”
