After learning about Izumi Shinyu's initial thoughts, Shikamaru didn't know why, and was a little worried about the other ninja villages.

Their current dark minister seems to be a bit of a tiger.

What's even worse is that he really has the strength and capital of a tiger.

"This method doesn't work, change it." Shikamaru said categorically.

"Judging from the time, Shayin Village and Lei Yin Village should have received the letter."

Izumi shrugged his shoulders slightly and said another suggestion.

"But for now, we can still hold a shadow-level meeting before Yanyin Village."

"United Water Hidden Village, as well as ...... Sand Hidden Village. ”

"The Sand Hidden Village is indeed a nuisance, will they accept our invitation?" Shikamaru bowed slightly and asked.

"It's hard to say." Izumi Shinyu shook his head, "By the way, has there been any progress in Kazekage's campaign?" ”

"It's still the same, the elders are in power, and they all want to support their own puppets." Shikamaru shrugged.

"How's that Iro, how's it going?"

"Do I love the fourth generation of the son of the Wind Shadow? Isn't he a human pillar force? Does it have anything to do with the campaign Kazekage? ”

"How's his campaign going?"

"Hello? You're kidding? Let's not talk about the identity of other people's pillar forces, with his age, it is impossible to become a wind shadow at all, right? Shikamaru complained.

"Shikamaru, the world is very big, let's not measure the infinite possibilities of this world with our own narrow vision." Izumi Shinyu persuaded.

"Where there is competition, there is success, as long as I have an idea, his success is the highest."

"I understand what you mean, maybe Renzhuli is in a village, what kind of treatment he receives, you should know better than me, as soon as I love Luo's election campaign, he won't be able to pass the public opinion."

"I know that, but people change." Izumi Shinyu nodded slightly, "But what was the attitude of the villagers towards Naruto before?" And now? ”

"......" Shikamaru stopped talking.

Naruto's childhood in Konoha is not an exaggeration to say that he is a street rat, but now, he only needs to appear on any street in Konoha.

will be surrounded by people, all kinds of praise, without stinginess.

Izumi Xinyu smiled slightly, "If the conditions allow, Shikamaru, you can properly arrange our people and help him." ”

"But the appearance of the Wind Shadow will do more harm than good to Konoha, right?" Shikamaru looked at him suspiciously.

"That's right, but we've got the Arrow prop here." Izumi Shinyu patted him on the shoulder.

"What's that?"

"You'll understand later, I'll go and report this matter to the five generations first, and I'll leave the supplementary work to you."

“…… I see. ”

……

Ichiraku ramen shop.

"Sakura-chan, do you have anything to do with me?" Naruto pulled back the curtain and sat down next to Sakura.

"Naruto, what are you eating?" Uncle Yile smiled.

"Miso ramen in a small bowl!" Naruto grinned.

"Wait a minute!"

"Poof!" Sakura's originally depressed face suddenly turned cloudy.

"What's wrong?" Naruto scratched his head in confusion.

"Only here do you look like the Naruto I know." Sakura sighed.

"Oh? Why? Naruto asked.

"Am I still me?"

"You are indeed you, but you are not the same person you used to be, you used to be, reckless, impulsive, never brainy, always let us wipe your ass......"

As she spoke, Sakura couldn't help but laugh herself.

"And unlike you now, mature and steady, I even saw a certain characteristic of Kakashi-sensei in you."

"Isn't it good?" Naruto asked with a smile.

"It's good." Sakura's expression suddenly fell.

"Even when I see you now, I always feel that I am the only one who is standing still......"

"Naruto, your little bowl of miso ramen." Uncle Ichiraku handed Naruto a bowl of ramen covered with a thick layer of meat.

"Uncle Yile, thank you." Naruto laughed.

"You're our Konoha hero, as you should." Yile smiled, "By the way, why do you eat a small bowl today, can you eat enough?" ”

"No problem, Hinata just brought me a bento, I've already eaten it once." Naruto scratched his head and smiled.

"Oh, the little girl who came with you for ramen last time?" Uncle Yile remembered the quiet, white-eyed girl last time, and asked with a smile.

"Hmm." Naruto broke open a pair of chopsticks and said excitedly, "I'm moving!" ”

Looking at the large piece of Naruto, Sakura looked inexplicable, and also chewed on her ramen in small bites.

After a moment, Naruto gave a big burp, "Uncle Ichiraku, thank you for your hospitality, your ramen is still so delicious." ”

After speaking, he turned his head to look at the girl beside him.

"Let's go, Sakura, you seem to have something to do with me."

Tata ......

Naruto's fingertips gently dropped a few coins.

After coming out, Sakura recalled the scene just now and asked suspiciously:

"Naruto, why don't you just give the money to the boss?"

"Uncle Yile has taken care of me since I was a child, and basically doesn't charge me for food, and I still do, but now I can support myself, so I ......"

Naruto scratched his head and smiled.

Sakura bowed slightly, "Naruto, can we go somewhere quieter?" I want to talk to you about something. ”

"No problem, how is the seventh training ground?" Naruto asked.

"Yes."

……

Looking at the three wooden stakes in front of him, recalling his original embarrassment, Naruto smiled with emotion.

"It's not like us, it's all changed." Sakura said.

"yes......"

After hesitating for a moment, Sakura seemed to have made up her mind and asked:

"Naruto, you...... Do you remember Sasuke? ”

"Looks like I guessed right." Naruto smiled slightly, "Naturally, I remember." ”

"I've heard them say that you, as a Konoha hero, are very powerful, although I don't know how strong you are." Sakura laughed to herself.

"But I think you must be capable of facing Orochimaru! Naruto, I want to ask you, please bring Sasuke back! ”

“…… Alas. The girl who bowed ninety degrees in front of Naruto sighed slightly.

I don't know when it started, but the distance between his Sakura and Sakura became estranged.

Is it from him to follow Izumi on a mission? Or did he walk into his heart from Hinata......

"Sakura-chan, I understand what you mean." Naruto helped her up.

"Although I am no longer on duty as a Seventh Shift, I will always be a part of Seventh Shift."

"Sasuke will always be my companion, my brother, he, I will definitely bring it back."

"However, you obviously have the strength now, why don't you ......" Sakura stopped when she wanted to speak.

Naruto slowly walked over to a wooden stake, the one that had once tied him, and it was here that the three of them were truly recognized by Kakashi-sensei, and in a real sense, they entered the world of ninjas.

"I obviously have the strength, but why don't I bring Sasuke back, right?"

Naruto voiced her doubts for Sakura.

"Yes, I do have the ability to forcibly bring him back, but Sakura-chan, have you ever wondered if Sasuke will leave the village again?"
