Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

"how about you?"

Toru Ito noticed that Yuina had never mentioned anything about herself, so he asked.

"me."

Yukina smiled smugly like a kitten: "I am now the captain of the security team."

"Huh? So fast?"

Toru Ito was quite surprised. Although in his plan he had already considered that Yukina might be promoted after the task was completed, he did not expect that Fugaku would really be willing to do so.

The squad leader of the Uchiha Konoha Guard is not a position that any ordinary Uchiha clan member can hold.

This means that Yukina has now entered the Uchiha's inner circle.

"Yeah, but if the Root needs me, just let me know anytime."

Yukina blinked.

Previously, Toru Ito took into consideration that it was impossible for everyone to stay in the Root for their entire lives, so the identities of those joining the Root were not made public.

The Anbu, which is responsible for monitoring Konoha, has no right to inquire about the whereabouts of the Root.

So after all this, even Sarutobi Hiruzen was not quite sure who the Root members led by Ito Toru were.

Not to mention the Uchiha clan.

In the chaos of last night, Yuina led the Uchiha Guard to accurately arrive near Koharu Utatane's residence and played an important role.

In comparison, the performance of the dark part is much worse.

Whether it was the initial intrusion by the enemy that resulted in the kidnapping of Utane Koharu, or the subsequent attacks, the Anbu failed to play the role they should have.

On the contrary, it was the Uchiha clan that played the role of a backbone in the emergency situation.

And all this is thanks to Yuina.

She was the first to notice something was wrong, and against all odds, she led the team out without hesitation.

Of course, the most important thing is the result.

At the time of settlement, in order to boost morale, Sarutobi Hiruzen specifically praised the role played by the Uchiha clan in this turmoil.

As for the Hyuga clan, they could only say that they had done nothing wrong and could only bow their heads in embarrassment, which made the Uchiha clan, who had been feeling a little aggrieved, breathe a sigh of relief and raise their chins even higher.

Of course, they did not forget the great contributor to all this - Yukina. Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Setsuna tried to win her over, and she was therefore given an important position.

Even though he is only a squad leader now, there is no doubt that he will be the captain of the security team in the future!

"Well, now that you're a squad leader, won't things become more complicated? Why do you still have the time to come to me?"

Ito Toru joked while eating with a smile on his face.

"Oh, I see. Are you annoyed by me now?"

Upon hearing this, Yuina immediately showed an angry expression, raised her fist like an angry kitten, and pretended to punch Ito Toru twice.

"No, no, how dare I."

Ito Toru quickly waved his hands to beg for mercy, with a flattering smile on his face. However, despite this, he still couldn't escape the fate of being hit by two small pink fists.

Bang Bang!

Two crisp sounds were heard, and Ito Toru suddenly felt a pain in his chest and couldn't help but gasp.

"hiss--"

He rubbed the place where he was hit, secretly sighing in his heart that Yukina's beating was really heavy! It was probably bruised inside...

"Humph."

Seeing Ito Toru grinning and gasping for air, Yuina finally smiled with satisfaction.

"We're finally full, let's go out for a walk." Yuina stretched, then leaned back in the chair, touching her round belly contentedly.

"Ah? Is that so? Then I'll go pack up the meal first..." Hearing that Yuina was going for a walk, Toru Ito, who was concentrating on eating, hurriedly speeded up.

"What are you packing? You can pack a new one when you come back from your walk! Do you want to carry a bag of food and walk with me?" Yuina clenched her fists and waved them at Toru Ito, the threat in her eyes was obvious.

"Uh, okay." Seeing that Yuina was so determined, Ito Toru had no choice but to put down his chopsticks and follow her arrangements obediently.

……

If there is any good place to take a walk in Konoha Village, it must be Hokage Rock.

Generally few people come here.

Except for bored ninjas, it is quite difficult for ordinary people to come up here.

Now, most of the Konoha ninjas are fighting in Kirigakure, and after last night's events, the villagers are also talking about it in the teahouse.

The journey was quite quiet.

Walking slowly up the mountain with Toru Ito, Yuina felt unconsciously more cheerful.

"Hey, Ito, this isn't your first time here, is it?"

"of course not."

Just came here last night.

Ito Toru thought, but I can’t say this, otherwise Yuina will definitely think too much.

When a man faces a woman, he must make sure not to let the other person think too much.

Otherwise you will get into countless troubles.

"so good."

Yukina suddenly let out a light breath.

After she finished speaking, her steps became lighter.

"Ito."

Yuina, who was walking in front, suddenly turned around and watched him walking backwards.

"You know what? I used to live in the Uchiha clan's territory and never went out to play."

"Hmm... I can probably guess."

Ito Toru shrugged.

After all, when he and other children were playing around in Konoha, he had never seen Yuina once.

The Uchiha clan still exists today. Unlike Sasuke at that time, when there was no one at home, he could only wander around alone when he was bored. Then he met Naruto who was also wandering around alone, and then a wonderful bond was formed between them.

"what the hell."

Yukina was obviously not satisfied with his answer: "Why can you guess?"

“Maybe I’m smarter.”

Ito Toru smiled, then warned: "But Yukina, this is very dangerous, be careful not to fall."

"Will not."

Yukina was full of confidence: "Don't underestimate me, I'm a jonin!"

There was a hint of girlish pride in her tone.

"Yes, yes, you are amazing."

What else could Toru Ito say? He could only give a thumbs up.

"hey-hey……"

Yukina's cheeks turned slightly red.

She suddenly felt that she was a little too presumptuous, but it was okay as long as she was saying that in front of Toru Ito, right?

For some reason, I felt a little secretly happy.

It was because of this distraction that Yuina's heel suddenly kicked a small stone.

"oops!"

She exclaimed, her hands waving like butterfly wings.

Oh no, oh no, oh no!

You just boasted that you wouldn’t fall!

Yukina's mind went blank.

He was ready to fall heavily to the ground, but Ito Toru flashed and took the unbalanced Yuina into his arms.

The distance between the two of them suddenly became very close.
