"The opportunity does exist, but whether you can grasp it or not is up to you......

As soon as the words fell, his mind turned sharply, accompanied by unfast and slow steps, and the distance from the already not too far apart was not too far. Naruto, who was holding Hinata on his shoulders, no more, no less, just stood in front of Ding Ji and Shikamaru. Immediately, while condensing the chakra that had already been filtered into the palm of his free other hand, he bent down a little, and slowly reached out his hand to slowly approach the shoulder of Ding Ci, who was in a half-awake and half-unconscious state.

"Ding Ci...... Will also be eliminated?! Not ——! ”

The answer he got unexpectedly dragged Shikamaru's consciousness back to the cold reality. So much so that when he saw Naruto's fingers, which exuded a sense of reassurance and familiarity, gradually approached, he screamed as if he had just woken up from a dream. Adjusting his body and moving Dingji's collapsed body to the side a little, it also caused Naruto's outstretched hand to accidentally fall into the air.

"No, it's absolutely not going to work!"

“…… Ha? ”

The action that was imperative in his subconscious suddenly fell short, causing Naruto's figure to stumble and almost fall directly to the ground. The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he naturally instinctively shifted his gaze from Ding Ci to the "culprit" who almost embarrassed him on the side.

"Shikamaru, what do you mean by that...... Do you really think that in the face of Ding Ci's serious physical overdraft now, just relying on the one soldier food pill you kept in advance can make Ding Ci recover enough physical strength to support him to continue to complete this round of exams, right? Or do you think that if I am treated, it will hurt Ding Ci? ”

Seeing Naruto's obviously unhappy gaze, Shikamaru couldn't help but have the illusion that he was on his back. was shocked to realize how easy it was to misunderstand his previous actions, and even if he wanted to "die" for himself again, he slapped himself with two big mouths.

"Uh, no, no, no, of course not, I ...... I mean......"

My heart suddenly felt like a dumb person eating yellow lotus, and I couldn't say anything about my bitterness at the same time. Shikamaru waved his hand in a panic and motioned for Naruto to calm down a bit, while racking his brains and meditating on a suitable justification. After a pause in silence for a long time, Fang gritted his teeth as if he had made up his mind, and then responded again without hesitation.

"You also said before, the reason why Ino chased me and fought was because of the conflict I caused, so he was so angry that he chased after me, so that in the end, they both exhausted their physical strength and passed out!"

Suddenly surprised in his heart, after Naruto patiently listened and digested the meaning of Shikamaru's words, he guessed that the person in front of him was planning to play the role of this "scapegoat", and wanted to help his other two teammates withstand the punishment of elimination. As a result, in the eyes that looked at Shikamaru, the smile of approval and approval hidden in the depths became more and more vigorous.

But after all, this is an exam conducted in teams of three...... Although in Naruto's mind, Shikamaru's performance has long been regarded as qualified enough to enter the school. But if Shikamaru is the only one who works hard, and the others just want to watch the fire from the other side with the idea of reaping the benefits of the fisherman. So no matter what Shikamaru says, Naruto, as the chief examiner, will definitely not let them go easily.

"Oh? That's kind of interesting...... Are you trying to say that the previous mistakes were entirely your fault and had nothing to do with Ino? ”

Once he had made up his mind, Naruto restrained a smile in his eyes. While moving to mobilize the tightness of his facial muscles, his expression looked like he was only being provoked with a little curiosity. While maintaining a lukewarm tone, he continued to speak lightly.

"But does this have anything to do with Ding Ci?"

Seeing that the expression on Naruto's face was somewhat relaxed, Shikamaru, who had no idea about the truth that he had already passed the exam, was suddenly mixed - the good news was that the idea that he planned to act as a "scapegoat" for Ino and Ding Ji in exchange for the right to continue to take the exam was indeed feasible. The worry is that if you do this, you will definitely be properly eliminated from the fate...... When I get home, most of my poor little butts are going to eat a meal of "fried meat with bamboo shoots" from my mother.

"Well, but in this way, as long as Ino and Dingji can firmly follow Naruto's side and move forward with him, and work a little harder, and don't make any mistakes...... You should be able to pass the exam successfully, right? In this way, the one-for-two deal is quite cost-effective. ”

But soon, Shikamaru shook his head and threw all the complicated thoughts in his mind out of the clouds. While secretly teasing and joking with himself as if he was in pain, he sorted out the sentences that had gradually been perfected in his heart, and then responded cautiously and cautiously.

"No, no, no, of course it matters......! Ding Ci became what he is now, in the final analysis, it was also because of my stimulated Ino who chased me all the way, so that in a panic, he didn't have time to consider Ding Ci's shortcomings in physical fitness! ”

"And the reason why he was able to catch up so quickly must be because the distance between him and us was too far behind, and he was worried that he would drag us back, and he forced himself to catch up desperately, which will cause him to be seriously overdrawn and unable to move!"

In other words, whether it's Ino or Dingji...... The reason why the two of them were depleting their stamina far beyond the planned range was because of my fault! If it weren't for the fact that I said that sentence too much, these accidents would not have happened now! Call...... Call...... Whew......"

“…… When Naruto was the seventh Hokage, he served as Naruto's deputy who gave advice and even disciplined Naruto...... Shikamaru's child's mental intelligence is really not covered. ”

After hearing Shikamaru throwing out one defense sentence after another in an orderly manner like a cannon, and seeing that the person was a little out of breath as soon as he finished speaking, the corners of Naruto's mouth gradually rose subconsciously. On his indifferent face, a little appreciative smile was revealed, and he already knew it clearly in his heart...... The theory of the person in front of him was urgently pieced together in the trivial time that was inadvertently reserved for him in the slightly free time that he had inadvertently reprimanded without paying attention to him.

Although there is still a logic similar to the logic of forcibly taking responsibility on oneself in terms of strong words, it is obviously quite an excellent result in terms of the length of time it took and the fact that it is currently immature.

“…… Finished? Is that all you want to say? ”

However, it wasn't until Shikamaru finished saying that Naruto was silent for a while as he even pretended to digest the meaning. But the scene he wanted to see the most in his mind still didn't appear, which couldn't help but make Naruto feel a little disappointed, and when he responded to the question, his words changed slightly.

“…… Well, that's it. ”

"Well, it's a pity, maybe I'm too anxious...... Forget it, you're still too young after all. ”

I don't know if I feel sorry for the choice made by Shikamaru, or if I feel unwilling to end up unsatisfactory to me at the moment, Naruto shook his head slightly, and sighed softly with regret. Immediately, while comforting himself, the three people in front of him were still young, and they could continue to slowly continue in school and try to guide them to the right path step by step. While waving his hand in an old-fashioned manner, he waved his hand rather disappointedly, paused for a while, and then continued again.

"So, it's my turn, right? I now decide, deer ......"

"Wait a minute!"

It's a pity that the heavens seem to be deliberately joking with Naruto, and before Naruto can say the real "punishment" that the three of them have decided in advance, a young female voice with a slight trembling heart comes from behind Naruto, interrupting Naruto's words again.

But for this "inopportune" voice that interrupted his words, Naruto didn't see the slightest look of unhappiness and anger on his face, but realized something, and the look of regret and depression in his eyes swept away.

"Oh? It's you......"

As he slowly twisted his head, Naruto's voice softened a little unconsciously. While there was a slight expectant smile in his eyes, in his words, the title of the owner of the voice also changed imperceptibly.

"You...... What do you want to say? Ino. ”
