Konoha's Me is a Substitute Messenger

Chapter 185 Sakura's Request

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

Their Anbu minister this term seems to be a bit of a tiger.

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

"This method won't work, change to another." Shikamaru said firmly.

"According to the time, Yinsha Village and Leiyin Village should have received the letter."

Quan Xinyou shrugged slightly, and said another suggestion.

"But from the current point of view, we can still hold a movie-level meeting before Yanyin Village."

"Joint Water Hidden Village, and... Sand Hidden Village."

"Hidden Sand Village is indeed a problem, will they accept our invitation?" Shikamaru nodded slightly and asked.

"It's hard to say." Quan Xinyou shook his head, "By the way, is there 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.

"That Gaara, how's the situation?"

"Is Gaara, the son of the fourth generation of Kazekage? Isn't he Jinchuriki? Does it have anything to do with running for Kazekage?"

"How is his campaign going?"

"Hello? Are you kidding me? Leaving aside Churiki's identity, at his age, it's impossible to become Kazekage, right?" Shikamaru complained.

"Shikamaru, the world is very big, we should not use our own narrow vision to measure the infinite possibilities of this world." Quan Xinyu persuaded.

"If there is competition, there will be success. As long as Gaara has ideas, his chances of success will be the highest."

"I understand what you mean. Maybe Renzhuli is treated in a village. You should know better than me what kind of treatment he receives. Once Gaara runs for Kazekage, he will not be able to pass the hurdle of public opinion."

"I know this, but people will change." Quan Xinyu nodded slightly, "But what was the attitude of the villagers towards Naruto before? How is it now?"

"..." Shikamaru fell silent.

When Naruto was in Konoha's place when he was a child, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he was a street mouse, but now, he only needs to appear in any random street in Konoha.

They will be surrounded by people, and all kinds of praises are not stingy.

Quan Xinyu smiled slightly, "If conditions permit, Shikamaru, you can properly arrange our people to help him."

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

"That's right, but we have Gaara props here." Quan Xinyou patted him on the shoulder.

"what?"

"You will understand in the future. I will report this matter to the fifth generation first, and I will leave the supplementary work to you."

"……Understood."

……

A ramen shop.

"Sakura, what can I do for you?" Naruto opened the curtain and sat down next to Sakura.

"Naruto, what do you eat?" Uncle Yile asked with a smile.

"Small bowl of miso ramen!" Naruto grinned.

"Hold on!"

"Pfft!" Sakura's depressed face suddenly changed from sunny to cloudy.

"What's wrong?" Naruto scratched his head suspiciously.

"Only here, you are like the Naruto I know." Sakura sighed.

"Oh? Why do you say that?" Naruto asked.

"Aren't I still me?"

"You are indeed you, but you are not the old you. The old you was reckless, impulsive, and never did things out of your head. You always let us wipe your ass..."

While talking, Sakura herself couldn't help laughing.

"It's not like you now, who are mature and stable. I even see some characteristics of Mr. Kakashi in you."

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

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

"Just seeing you now, I always feel that I am the only one standing still..."

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

"Uncle Yile, thank you." Naruto smiled.

"You are the hero of our Konoha, you should." Yi Le said with a smile, "By the way, why are you eating a small bowl today, can you be full?"

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

"Oh, the little girl who came to eat ramen with you last time?" Uncle Yile asked with a smile, remembering the quiet girl with white eyes last time.

"Hmm." Naruto opened a pair of chopsticks and said excitedly, "I'm starting!"

Looking at Naruto who was eating big pieces, Sakura looked puzzled, and chewed her own ramen in small bites.

After a while, Naruto let out a big burp, "Uncle Yile, thank you for the hospitality, your ramen is still so delicious."

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

"Let's go, Sakura, you seem to be looking for 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 meals, and it still does now, but now I can support myself, so..."

Naruto scratched his head and smiled.

Sakura nodded slightly, "Naruto, can we go to a quieter place? I want to tell you something."

"No problem, how about the seventh practice field?" Naruto asked.

"can."

……

Looking at the three wooden stakes in front of him, Naruto smiled emotionally when he recalled his embarrassment back then.

"It's not like us here, everything has 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 it right." Naruto smiled slightly, "Of course I remember."

"I heard them say that you, the hero of Konoha, are very powerful, although I don't know how powerful you are." Sakura laughed at herself.

"But I think, you must be able to face Orochimaru! Naruto, I want to ask you, please bring back Sasuke!"

"... Sigh." The girl who bowed deeply at ninety degrees in front of Naruto sighed slightly.

I don't know since when, the distance between him and Sakura became distant.

Did he start following Quan on missions?Or walk into his heart from Hinata...

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

"Although I no longer perform tasks as the seventh class, I will always be a member of the seventh class."

"Sasuke will always be my companion and my brother. I will definitely bring him back."

"But, you are clearly capable now, why don't you..." Sakura hesitated to speak.

Naruto walked slowly to a wooden stake, which was the stake where he was once tied. It was here that the three of them were truly approved by Mr. Kakashi, and in a real sense, they entered the world of ninjas.

"I'm obviously strong, but why didn't I bring Sasuke back, did I?"

Naruto spoke out her question for Sakura.

"Yes, I do have the ability to bring him back by force, but Sakura, have you ever thought about whether Sasuke will leave the village again?"
