Regardless of the world, groves have many meanings and are loved by many people. The same goes for the groves of Konoha, especially in the evening.

Naruto and Hinata finally found a quiet place.

The sun was setting, and the two were back to back. Naruto also slowly began to tell about his experience during this time. From the time he went to find Tsunade with Jiraiya, he began to speak.

At first, he deliberately avoided dangerous places.

Later, after he discovers that Hinata is just a quiet listener, he unconsciously does not deliberately hide the sinister part. It's like a memory of talking to myself, mixed with some of my own feelings at the time.

For example, when faced with a crisis that he cannot solve, how much power he craves.

But the crisis also taught him to think and be cautious.

Another example: the last paragraph of Miko. He deliberately quietly teleported the body away, leaving the clone as a temptation. In the end, he really guessed it.

Affected by this, when he does things in the future, he will also think more about keeping a hand. This is also a kind of growth!

These days, no, more than two weeks to be exact. He's always on a tight nerve. Only then did his nerves relax.

The posture of the two, from back-to-back at the beginning, unconsciously became, Naruto lying on Hinata's lap pillow. And Hinata didn't speak all the time, very quiet.

Of course, she also gently rubbed Naruto's temples.

It was precisely because of this that Naruto was able to relax, and his tired body and mind seemed to be comforted. He is also very grateful to her and wants to protect her all the time.

It was getting dark, and Naruto's story was almost finished.

"Hinata, it's almost time for us to go back."

However, at this time, those tender little hands covered his eyes and prevented him from getting up. And with her soft, slightly shy voice.

"Stay a little longer."

She has always supported him in her own way.

……

When Naruto returned to his house, he found that the house was brightly lit and the old TV was playing. He smiled silently in his heart: Hehe. Seeing that Brother Ji quickly integrated into this world. I learned how to turn on electrical appliances and learned them very quickly.

And sit in ...... Well, it should be said that the chicken brother standing on the sofa, it is in an extremely humorous way to vulgarly talk about its sadness.

"Although the old man has seen many things, there is one thing that he doesn't understand."

"What's the matter, Brother Ji?"

"The old man doesn't know much about your human clock, what you and the old man said about going and going is just going back, does the pointer run from there to the distance from here?" Brother Chicken refers to, from three o'clock in the afternoon to eleven o'clock in the evening.

"Uh...... That ......" Naruto awkwardly placed the bag on the coffee table, "Brother Chicken, I brought you some food back." Look at it, it's not to your taste. ”

"The old man doesn't eat, he only absorbs natural energy."

"Uh...... This ...... "Naruto can only say, Brother Ji is still your cheat!"

However, in the next second, I could hear Brother Ji's roar.

"What kind of food are you! Poisonous! Why can't the old man's mouth stop! Beep beep! ”

Naruto looked at Brother Chicken, who was still a picture of fireworks that did not eat the world one second, and became a Chicken Brother who was reincarnated as a starving ghost in the next second, and he didn't know what to say.

Still, he explained: "The young bee in the box on your right is dipping in the secret sauce. The one in the middle is...... Yes, well, synthetic food type I. On the left is the synthetic food type II. ”

Brother Ji swallowed the dates and said, "Synthetic food is so delicious, it must be very expensive, right?" Let you break the bank, and when you return to the sub-space, the old man must thank you well. ”

"Actually, it's not expensive......" Naruto scratched his head embarrassedly, what kind of synthetic food, that is, chicken feed. Except that the plate of young bee dense sauce is a bit expensive, and the chicken feed is not worth much. It's a pity that Brother Chicken doesn't like to eat young bee sauce.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Brother Ji asked.

"Nope. Brother Chicken, you eat slowly, I've already eaten it. ”

Sure enough, the boss didn't lie to me: even if the chicken with a picky mouth can't escape the temptation of this feed!

After Brother Ji finished eating, he suddenly hung a scroll in front of Naruto with his mind.

Naruto was puzzled for a while, wasn't this the Book of Seals that he had copied by hand? How did Brother Ji find out?

"Boy, this thing is yours, right?"

"Hmm." Naruto nodded.

"The old man can see that the ninjutsu recorded above is very advanced. Don't mess around. ”

"Thank you, Brother Ji." Naruto scratched his head in embarrassment. Then take the scroll. Then put it in the cupboard.

At this time, Brother Ji continued: "There is an illusion on it, which is very powerful. The old man admired the creator of this technique. ”

Naruto smiled, "It was created by our second Hokage, and he is a genius. ”

"It's a pity that the writing is too ugly."

"Uh......" Naruto was speechless for a moment, "Brother Ji, this is a manuscript." Not the original. ”

"Oh, the person who copied this ninjutsu, the words are too ugly."

“……”

"Alright. The old man didn't talk nonsense anymore, and when the old man was just bored, he made some modifications to this technique. ”

"Some modifications?" Naruto's eyes lit up, it was modified by Brother Ji himself, it must be very powerful, right? He couldn't help but look forward to it.

"Hmm." Brother Ji stood on the coffee table, pacing back and forth. If it weren't for the fact that he was in the form of a little yellow chicken, his pacing would have been very imposing.

He said proudly: "The ninjutsu modified by the old man must be immortal. And you happen to absorb a little bit of natural energy, which is as weak as an ant, but it can still be used. ”

"......" Except for Brother Ji's last words, Naruto would feel happy.

"Tomorrow, the old man will pass it on to you in the form of a verbal complaint. As for whether you can learn or not, the old man doesn't know. ”

"Thank you, Brother Ji!" As long as you can get stronger, it's a good thing, and in the early middle and early stages, illusions are very good ninjutsu. Only when the battle system in the late stage completely collapses, the illusion is useless. Moreover, under the personal guidance of Brother Ji, this is a rare opportunity!

After washing, when I lay down in bed, it was already twelve o'clock. Naruto turned off the lights and looked at the ceiling, but he couldn't sleep.

In my mind, something always comes to mind. I've seen a powerful holy place that ordinary ninjas can't touch in their lifetime. I've seen it with my own eyes, and death passes by. I have felt my own insignificance, and I have seen the high-flying birds.

No matter who you are, how can you not have great ambitions?

Still, exhaustion invaded his eyes, and between half-open and half-closed, he seemed to see a crow hovering across the ceiling.

He was drowsy, and he didn't care about these abnormalities. Instead, the eyelids are getting heavier and heavier.

The next day, Brother Ji told Naruto the improved "Dark Walk" as promised.

Naruto took notes and got a rough idea of what he was going to do.

Illusion requires mastering the nature of the Yin Element, and Naruto originally did not possess this ability. Especially this illusion, it requires a huge Yin Attribute Chakra.

But what Brother Ji has improved is the energy that is driven by natural energy supplemented by spiritual energy.

Of course, many of the details require him to spend a lot of time and ponder slowly. Moreover, Brother Ji himself is not a ninja system, so it is still unknown whether Naruto can finally learn his improved technique.

But just as Naruto was about to practice, he suddenly remembered something.

It was already decided yesterday that today he should visit the next three generations, no matter what, he has raised Naruto for twelve years. Moreover, he also turned a blind eye to Naruto's hand-copying of the Book of Seals. Although the "Filthy Earth Reincarnation" chapter was withdrawn.

Now that he has retired with honor, he should pay a visit.

So, he took some gifts and went to the family of three generations.

The door was opened by Konohamaru, the grandson of the third generation, and he was quite happy to see Naruto here.

"Brother Naruto, why are you here?"

"Let's take a look at the three generations of grandpa." Naruto laughed, "Is your grandfather at home?" ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Come in, Brother Naruto. "Konohamaru is obvious, more lively than before.

Probably because his grandfather has more time to spend with him, and he doesn't have to engage in "sneak attacks" every day to attract his grandfather's attention. Naruto was also sincerely happy for Konohamaru.

Upon entering the courtyard, Naruto saw Asma playing chess with Miyo. The two of them were also very happy to see Naruto.

"Yo! Isn't this Naruto? Asma had only seen Naruto a few times, but she had shown a familiar look. In his heart, he was grateful to Naruto for getting Tsunade back. In this way, the old man is finally not so tired. "I heard that in the past two days, you have gone to the fairy world?"

"Naruto, sit."

"Thank you, grandfather of the third generation." Then, Naruto responded to Asma, "How can you say that is so exaggerated. That's not the fairy world, Mr. Asma. ”

"Hahaha."

A few people chatted and chatted, and somehow, they talked about cultivation.

Naruto suddenly asked Asma, "Asma-sensei, if I want to make the wind attribute chakra so that I can cut off the waterfall, how much does that need?" ”

"Cut off the waterfall?" Asma was surprised, "You're taking a bit of a big step. ”

"This ...... Asma-sensei, can you elaborate on that? At this time, Naruto was sitting precariously, like a good student listening carefully.

Asma didn't see it either, and she spoke in great detail.

"Well, first of all, chakra is a mixture of physical energy and mental energy."

"Hmm." Naruto nodded, it was common sense, he understood.

"So what if we break it down? Body energy is the energy contained in every cell. Everyone's potential is big and small, such as you, Naruto, you are a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, and the body energy contained in your body is probably dozens of times that of mine. However, you are not yet able to reach your potential. You know why? ”

"Because the foundation and mental energy are not enough."

"That's right. The basics include chakra refining speed, refining efficiency, experience, ...... Wait a minute. The most important thing is that the refinement of physical energy is inseparable from spiritual energy, and spiritual energy needs to be cultivated the day after tomorrow to improve. ”

"Hmm." Naruto nodded, but these were common sense that he knew. He was looking forward to Asma's later words.

Sure enough, as Asma explained in depth, Naruto finally began to understand something he didn't know before.

"So, Naruto, do you know why we need a change in nature? You see, isn't there no change in the nature of the Hyuga family? Or rather, what is the change in nature? ”
