Not long after untying the knot that had gradually accumulated in Hinata's heart, Naruto, who had relaxed by lifting the sense of crisis, sensed the breath of a third person other than himself and Hinata in the perception that subconsciously spread again.

Although he didn't perceive any malice from this third person, and even more so he sensed a wisp of familiarity from it, in the cold language environment in the past few years, the adaptability that was cultivated and implanted in Naruto's bones intentionally or unintentionally still made Naruto's body take the lead in taking action before his mind was completely clear.

"Huh? Who! ”

With a frown furrowed and a soft warning, almost instinctively, Naruto folded his arms and firmly protected Hinata's entire body, which was already curled up due to shyness in his arms. While maintaining a posture with his back to him, using his body as a shield in order to block all possible attacks for the person in his arms, he turned his head slightly to look in the direction of the breath he perceived.

"Huh? Dingci? ”

After seeing the figure of the owner of the breath clearly, Naruto, who confirmed that he was just a false alarm, relaxed again, and then subconsciously surprised and directly called out the name of the little guy who was silently eating "dog food" on the side.

"What are you doing standing still there?"

"Huh? Oh...... Naruto...... Not...... Nothing ......."

Hearing Naruto's call, Ding Ji, who was in a "daze" not far away, was silent for a while, and then barely squeezed out a smile, and while the two of them raised their hands and waved them in response, they greeted weakly.

"Looks like you've got it done? So, let's go...... Go catch up with Shikamaru them. ”

As soon as the words fell, Ding Ci shakily dragged his steps forward. As he got closer, the blank look of the potato chips in his hands that appeared in front of Naruto and the others without even intentionally picking them up when they slipped off in his hand suddenly made Naruto feel a burst of inexplicable guilt. But after thinking about it, Naruto really couldn't remember what kind of "prank" he had done to make the snack goods in front of him, who regarded snacks as treasures, make such abnormal behaviors. Puzzled, after Ding Ji gradually approached, Naruto had to make way for someone sideways in the inexplicable burst of weakness in his heart.

"This guy...... What the hell did you just go through......"

After watching Dingji's figure fade away, Naruto muttered to himself as he lowered his head, and after glancing at Hinata who was also confused in his arms, he asked each other curiously in unison.

"That's it...... What does that mean, Hinata, you know? ”

"That's it...... What does that mean, Naruto-kun, you know? ”

However, while the two were distracted, Naruto didn't notice......

The tacit understanding that he and the person in his arms inadvertently showed was already ruthless for Ding Ci, who had just left not far away and had eaten a full meal of "dog food". So much so that at the moment when the words fell, Ding Ci seemed to have stepped on some stumbling stone, and his whole body shook unnaturally, and he almost fell to the ground......

Of course, if Naruto knew...... Well, he's probably going to do that.

After all, in the heart of this spoiled wife madman...... The world is big, and the daughter-in-law is the biggest.

At the same time, after joining Ding Ci, the remaining personnel who fell behind in the two teams were gathered together.

Faced with the prerequisite that two members have taken the lead and "voluntarily" rushed to the forefront to "take the lead". Naruto didn't have to wait any longer, and while holding Hinata firmly in his arms as usual, he began to gradually increase his forward speed as he followed the path straight forward under his feet.

At the same time, after merging together, Ding Ci seemed to have changed his whole person. No matter how Naruto tried to ask out loud, he only replied vaguely on the grounds that he was okay and didn't have to worry about it...... As the "culprit" who made Ding Ci what he is now, Naruto still doesn't know the reason for Ding Ci's change. So much so that for a while, Rao's ability to discern people's hearts, which Naruto's rich experience had exercised, couldn't see what Ding Ji was thinking about now.

But fortunately, at least there is no harm in this state now, not to mention, after becoming like this, Ding Ci has never complained about being tired. Even after that, Naruto kept improving and adjusting his forward speed in order to catch up with Shikamaru and Ino as soon as possible. It was also without saying a word, silently speeding up the pace and following closely. Coupled with the two people of Shikamaru and Ino who came out far before, invisibly, it made a qualitative leap in the overall forward speed.

……

"Can you still hold on?"

After gradually improving from the slow and leisurely appearance of the initial walk to the current rapid and steady forward speed, Naruto muttered in a low voice while using his own perception to check whether there was any abnormality in Dingji not far behind him.

"It seems that it was similar to what I thought before, but I was simply afraid of hardship and tiredness, and I didn't think much about moving...... Judging from the current performance, it is indeed a good seedling with excellent potential and worth cultivating. ”

After confirming that although it was a little difficult, it was still firmly following, and there was no sign of lagging behind. With a smile in his eyes, Naruto couldn't help but nod slightly in satisfaction.

"But ......"

But soon, the smile on Naruto's face faded, and he raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself, replaced by a deep curiosity that overflowed with words.

"Ding Ci, how did he suddenly open his mind, and remembered that he should work hard? Could it be that this is also one of Shikamaru's 'great achievements'? ”

Of course, what Naruto didn't know was ...... Although it was indeed Ino who caused the signs of change in Dingji......

But if you think about it carefully, whether it is the motive that makes Ino can't help but ravage potato chips to vent, or the "culprit" of Ding Ji's "luck" to unlock a certain achievement. The root cause seems to be because Naruto is unscrupulously molesting Hinata in public, which makes people very excited.

In a sense...... This can be regarded as an unexpected gain for Naruto without even realizing that he is contributing to the trouble.

"Well, although I don't understand, what did Ding Ci go through to become so energetic...... But as things stand, that's a good thing. ”

With many possibilities in mind, and after being overthrown by his own hands one by one, Naruto, who was puzzled, had to temporarily give up the useless work of speculating on the reason for Ding Ji's transformation. Instead, under the stimulation of the aura of the other examiners who were approaching in groups of people who had been detected by the 100% extension of his perception, he secretly quickened his pace a little again, and the corners of his mouth rose up, revealing a little mischievous smile at the same time, he secretly whispered playfully.

"Oh, oh, oh, those unlucky people who have taken the wrong path, are they already catching up so soon...... Looks like we'll have to speed up a little faster. ”
