Nine-Tails was sleeping in a daze, and when he was lifted up, he couldn't help but raise the dog's head to look at him.

"What for?"

"It's nothing, it's time for you to work to pay off your debts." Naruto walked out of the door with his neck on his shoulder, took a quick shower and changed his gear, and slammed the door shut.

His footsteps rang out in the hallway, Naruto's hair was still dripping wet, and the Nine-Tails' dissatisfied complaints were mixed with footsteps.

"You want me to work? The old man is not involved in your human wars. ”

"It's not a war, it's just a mission, I'm a little uneasy, so I'll take you by the way." Naruto walked downstairs to the light, and he could already see the exit that connected to Konoha Street.

"Mission?" Nine-Tails snorted, "Whether you need the help of the old man or not, a hundred bottles of wine can't be missing." ”

"Got it." Naruto placed the Nine-Tails on his shoulder and began to look down at the ninja bag as he walked, "It's not necessarily useful, it's just a little safer." ”

"Besides, what do you see you've become? I used to be a thin dog, but now I'm as fat as a pig. If you don't move with you, the difference between you and a pig may be a skin color.

"Damn! You're damned, little ghost! "Nine-Tails is a little sullen, isn't that insulting it?

Although the recent life has been a little more comfortable, it has not forgotten its original intention. Pig? It's a nine-tailed, terrifying tailed beast, woo! Super fierce!

Hmph, the Nine-Tails was lying on Naruto's shoulder, and there was a hint of a feeling of owning a mount.

"Hurry up, little ghost."

"Urging what? If you're in a hurry, get down and go by yourself. Naruto didn't pay attention to it at all, "Be honest, fat pig fox, or you won't want to drink a drop of wine in the future." ”

"Despicable human, you soft rice man should be dragged out and fed to the dogs."

"Hehe, shut up." Naruto carried it directly from his shoulders to his hands, the Nine-Tails had been getting more and more rounded recently, and his limbs had evolved in a shorter direction.

Originally, it was a tailed beast dressed in the skin of an evil god's lackey, but in essence, it was a body with a ball of pure chakra energy living in a skin, and it could also be changed on the outside.

Usually, the nine-tails do not need to eat and drink, and the body will not excrete impurities. It is completely existing in the form of an energy body, and the energy in the wine is completely absorbed and converted.

So much so that now the Nine-Tails have drunk too much wine, and under the paralysis of alcohol, the appearance is similar to Natsume's fat cat.

He doesn't care, there is a system, and the nine-tails can't make any waves.

If you have a nine-tail, you only need to spend some money to buy wine. He is not short of money, and it doesn't cost him a few dollars to buy wine, and usually the Nine-Tails will meet his requirements as long as he is not busy.

Anyway, now the Nine-Tails is raising him by default by default, and he is a complete soft rice man. Naruto didn't want to correct this.

Several people gathered at the Hokage Building as usual, and he wanted to go directly to the fifth floor, but when he walked into the Hokage Building, he saw familiar faces in the courtyard.

Sakura and Ino stood talking and laughing, and Ya, Shino, and Hinata were also standing there waiting. Ding Ci and Shikamaru don't seem to have come yet, but Xiao Li and Ning Ci have arrived.

After being stunned for a moment, Naruto also dismissed the idea of going upstairs and simply waited in the courtyard.

Anyway, the team led by this mission is probably led by Shikamaru's dog-headed military division, and it doesn't make sense for him to go up and take a look, if there is a special order, Tsunade will send someone to summon him.

Ino also noticed Naruto, his gaze flustered for a while, but quickly regained his composure. Yesterday she rolled in bed for half an hour, but she couldn't resolve the shame in her heart.

I actually said it!

Damn, he found out and gave a response. Her whole body and mind were trembling violently at that time, and her movements were completely out of her mind's control.

The thought of her mother cooking in the kitchen almost made her hold hands on the sofa!! She was so ashamed that she wanted to go back to yesterday and stop her stupid behavior.

Or, beat him to a concussion and amnesia!

Forget! Definitely forget that memory!! Ino woke up in the morning, and he regretted all his heart, what the hell did he do yesterday!!

I really want to live in a different world, it's too shameful!

She came to the Hokage building early, just to get used to the atmosphere by standing there a little earlier, maybe she pretended to forget about it, and the person just asked.

Well, tacit understanding!

But Naruto didn't seem to have this tacit understanding, so he glanced at everyone and walked directly in the direction of Ino and Sakura.

Ino was looking sideways, trying to see where Naruto had gone, when she saw Naruto walking in her direction at a glance, and her mind went blank.

"What's wrong?" Sakura asked.

"Huh?" Ino was stunned for a moment.

Sakura looked out slightly, frowned, and said, "What happened to that dress?" All of a sudden, you don't speak. ”

As she spoke, Sakura looked in the direction that Ino had just been stunned and saw Naruto walking towards them. His eyes drooped slightly, and he instantly understood what the abnormality was.

"Sorry I accidentally wandered." Ino said, "That dress it"

"The mission started so soon?" Naruto leaned over and naturally asked, "When did you guys arrive?" ”

"It didn't take long." Sakura said with a smile, "Ino was earlier, she was already here when I came. ”

"Really?"

"It didn't take long." Ino laughed, his eyes didn't dare to meet Naruto's, but when he turned his head, he met the eyes of the Nine-Tails, and he was suddenly happy.

"How did you bring it?"

"This guy is a ninja dog." Naruto lied casually.

I don't know if anyone believes this, anyway, this bulging fox dog is here, and he has brought it with him, so he must be on the road with him.

"Ino, yesterday"

Hearing this, Ino's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he almost ran away with a bang.

"Yesterday!" She preemptively said, "Yesterday. You didn't get wet when you went back yesterday, did you? My mother has been worried about you getting wet? ”

"Not really." Naruto glanced at Ino a little strangely, but seeing that she seemed to be very nervous, he didn't say anything more.

Sakura's gaze swept back and forth between the two of them, and she didn't look too much, looking down at the ground.

"Are you all together?" Shikamaru's lazy voice came from the stairs, "Is Naruto here?" That guy's favorite thing is to be late, is it coming? ”

"Long-winded, here! My hair came over without blow-drying. Naruto said, rolling his eyes.

"Who knew about you," Shikamaru grumbled, before changing his tune, "What about Ino?" Is Ino here? ”

Hearing this, Ino, who had already calmed down, almost froze on the spot. Why do you have to call that guy after calling her? Did Shikamaru that guy do it on purpose?

"It's coming!" Ino tried to calm her voice and make it seem normal.

But when she opened her mouth, the trembling voice still startled herself, and she suddenly complained in her heart about why she was so uncompetitive, what was there to be nervous about.

"Okay, what about Ningci?" Shikamaru glanced at everyone, and it really didn't seem to be intentionally ordering people.

"Here we are." Ning Ci said.

"Then let's go now, gather outside the village gate, and the eighth class is responsible for leading the way with micro-incense worms." Shikamaru quickly gave the battle order, "The formation will be arranged later." ”

Everyone had no opinion, turned around and walked towards the entrance of the village in groups of three or two.

Ino had already joined up with Dingji Shikamaru and them, and they were about the smallest unit of the following ninja class. Naruto looked back at Sakura, only to see Hinata passing him.

After a moment, Hinata looked at him, his hair was half-dry, and water stains could still be seen at the ends. A small amount of water slowly slipped off the neckline and wetted the neckline.

Naruto was in a hurry when he went out, and it was summer again, so he thought that it would soon be dry on the way, so he simply didn't pay attention to it.

Hinata looked at Naruto's appearance, his face was slightly red for a while, and he forgot what he was going to say, so he could only shout in a small voice.

"Naruto-kun."

"Well, what's wrong with you?" Naruto didn't feel anything wrong, anyway, Hinata always blushed easily when she saw him, and she was used to it.

"Nothing, nothing." Hinata's heart thumped.

The summer is hot and humid, and the daylight is long. I don't know which tree the bird screamed, drawing Naruto's gaze to the past, and when he withdrew his gaze again.

Hinata whispered, "I'll go first, Naruto-kun." ”

Watching Hinata walk away quickly, Naruto was a little confused. Why do you feel a little strange today, why are these people all mysterious?

"Let's go." Sakura walked up to him and smiled.

"Okay." Naruto nodded, okay, Sakura was fine.

"This mission is over." Kurokura's calm voice came from her side, and Naruto couldn't help but turn his head to look at her and asked.

"What?"

"This mission is over, do me a little favor."
