"You're sure."

Naruto gave a thumbs up and said with a big smile.

"If you're afraid of loneliness, I'll be with you to the end! Grandpa said that you have to uphold an indomitable heart in order to swing the most powerful fist! ”

“……”

On the other side, the four of Shikamaru suddenly turned their heads and looked at the exit of the unfinished building not far away.

"What's going on?" Ino couldn't help but shout and asked.

The voice answered them.

"The other side has already made a choice."

"The other side?" Ino was puzzled and quickly thought of something.

"Naruto?"

"Let's go!"

Shikamaru made a decisive decision.

Take the lead and run towards the exit.

"Hey! Shikamaru! After thinking about it, Ino still managed to follow.

Ding Ci gritted his teeth and still followed.

Pigs, deer and butterflies have always been one.

He would respect Shikamaru's decision.

Shikamaru quickened his pace, he didn't rush to escape, but realized that this exit could also be a trap, so he planned to go to Thunder first.

But unexpectedly, after rushing out, there was a clear sky outside.

This is.

"Coming out?" Shikamaru whispered, moaning to himself.

Then gritted his teeth.

"Go and contact the security office."

Each neighborhood has a security office with security guards stationed there.

If something happens, report it as soon as possible.

Let the village send people to rescue it quickly.

And on the rooftop, against the backdrop of dusk.

"They left." The voice spoke again.

Naruto breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.

"Aren't you angry that they abandoned you?"

"It's my choice."

Naruto said with a straight cross.

Then put on a stance.

"Come on! Fight, I'll be with you to the end! ”

“……”

"What? Don't you fight? ”

"Are you just thinking about fighting?"

"Of course not." Naruto let go of his stance, scratched his head and said, "But Grandpa said that in the face of enemies, you must learn to swing your fists bravely. If you're an enemy, then of course I'm going to fight you. ”

“…… What if I'm not an enemy? ”

"Are you going to be friends with me?" Naruto continued to scratch his head: "I didn't want to be friends with youkai anymore, but it's not impossible for you to be friends with me. ”

"To you, either an enemy or a friend?"

"If it's not an enemy, it's not a friend, it's a stranger, strangers are too lazy to talk, you have told me so much, it's not an enemy, so what are you doing if you don't want to be friends with me?"

“……”

"What? Am I not right? ”

"I'm not a monster."

"It's not a youkai, what is it?" Naruto asked, puzzled.

There was silence for a while, and then the answer was given: "I am an elf." ”

"Elves?"

"The embodiment of some kind of natural imagery, I am the spirit of light and shadow, holding the power of light and imagery."

The words fell.

The next moment, the light in front of me changed.

Naruto's eyes widened as he looked at the vast sea of clouds beneath his feet, which stretched all the way to the end of the sky, and he could see the red sunset that was about to sink at the end of the sky...

This picture is so shocking!

"Is it pretty?"

"Hmm."

Well?

Naruto turned his head away.

See.

A little girl who looked about his age.

His silver hair was scattered to his ankles, his face was so delicate that he seemed to be a real elf, and his golden eyes seemed to contain endless bottomless depth...

At this moment, these eyes were staring at Naruto.

"So, are you afraid of loneliness?" Naruto asked.

Ask the question.

The girl shook her head.

"I'm not afraid of loneliness."

She raised her hand.

"Because I'm everywhere, right next to many."

"That's right."

Naruto didn't look too well understood.

"But." He said with some certainty: "You must really want someone to play with you." ”

"Nope."

She vetoed it directly, held her head up slightly, and said, "I'm just testing you." ”

"Test me?"

"Yes, test your volume, that's all."

Naruto felt a little baffled.

"But everybody wants to find someone to play with." Naruto said as a matter of course, "Even Sasuke's stinky fart guy actually wants someone to play with, and you must be too." ”

"I'm not interested in playing."

She said seriously.

"And what are you interested in?"

"Doing something more serious, of course."

"Something more serious."

"For example, to engage in research...... In short, it's a very serious thing, and you don't understand it when I tell you. ”

Naruto tilted his head to look at the girl in front of him.

I think she has a hard mouth, and she looks like Sasuke's guy inexplicably.

Obviously, I really want to find someone to play, but I deny that I don't want to.

"What do you want to play?" Naruto asked her directly.

She was a little caught off guard for a while.

"I want to ...... Don't want to. ”

"How about playing games?"

"Don't you really want to play games?"

"Sasuke isn't here." Naruto said confidently.

“……”

"Come on, let's play a game together, I'll take you to the game room and play a fun game together!"

"No need."

"Come on, come on!"

Naruto unconsciously had a little coquettish taste.

For a while, the white-haired little girl was a little overwhelmed.

"I can't help it."

She sighed.

The next moment, the surrounding scenery changed.

It becomes an interior view.

Like in the living room, there is a large screen TV in front of it, and then a game console connected to the TV.

"Since you want to play, then I'll accompany you."

"That's amazing! Teleportation? ”

Some games also have teleportation mechanics, so Naruto quickly understood this.

"It's not." The white-haired girl shook her head.

Holding his head high, he said with a sense of pride: "It's a simulation of light and imagery, and the actual effect can be achieved by interfering with the body sensation through illusion." ”

"Oooo This picture! ”

Naruto grew his mouth.

It's really a picture displayed on a TV monitor, it's so realistic!

The corners of the white-haired girl's mouth curled.

"It's a projection of the realistic effect of the light image."

"It's a game ahead of its time!" Naruto is really full of praise.

"After all, I'm... The spirit of the light elephant is gone. ”

The two quickly manipulated the characters and played.

Playing and playing, I gradually became engrossed.

When the white-haired girl was taking a moment's time, a thought flashed through her mind: I seem to have forgotten something?

In the unfinished building.

Sasuke stopped running with a snort.

"Naruto..."

With the name in his mouth, his hands on his knees gradually clenched into fists.

"Damn."

Naruto.

"You bastard!"

Don't give me an accident!

He straightened up and continued to run.

'I'll get you back!' Who allowed you to sacrifice yourself without permission, are you looking down on me like this?! Do you think I'm going to get away with it like a coward? Look down on people less! ’

Teeth clenched.

'You're my adversary!' Between us, it is impossible to end here, I will never agree! ’
