Naruto: The hardworking model who realizes his dream is actually the white moonlight of the ninja wo

"How long are you going to stay away from me?"

"The end of the crane."

You can lose your image temporarily, but you can never lose face.

Uchiha Sasuke had a cold face and impatience emanated from his whole body.

He was more or less touched that Naruto came here for him before - but Sasuke was a weird person and wouldn't show what he was thinking directly.

“That’s what all their good friends are like.”

Neji was happy to watch the fun, he calmly took the bowl of medicine from Hizashi's hand and took a sip.

It's always bitter no matter when I drink it.

"Who would be good friends with this guy!"

The two inseparable people answered in unison, and Hizashi, who had just recovered, nodded thoughtfully.

"you're right."

“They do have a good relationship.”

As expected, the two protested again: "No way!"

It just makes things worse.

"In the rules of heaven, Sasuke and Naruto are nothing."

Neji shook his wrist, and the snake's coiled body slowly tightened: "A lucky but not very lucky sucker."

"As the reincarnation of the two sons of the Sage of Six Paths, they will naturally be incredibly powerful in the future."

But what is the Six Paths Sage? He is still Kaguya’s son.

As the snake that induced Kaguya to eat the forbidden fruit, he has always looked down on this kind of "immortal" who is like a son.

"Although they are people with power and luck, the power of the fruit of the sacred tree has been greatly weakened when it comes to the two sons of the Six Paths Sage."

"If they want to follow the will of heaven and gain power beyond that of ordinary people, they will naturally have to pay more - and this price is not something they can choose."

Snakes are snakes after all, they seem to have the ability to read minds.

"You don't have to blame yourself too much for what happened to that kid."

"He chose to forgive - and besides, it wasn't his turn according to the rules."

But how can a person who has fallen into the abyss be pulled out with just a few words?

Neji drank the rest of the medicine in silence, and the empty bowl was placed on the small table beside him.

He still couldn't do anything.

Even if they get the chance, they will fail at the critical moment.

He has no way of bringing happiness to anyone.

The bitterness in his mouth mixed with his heart, making it hard for Neji to breathe.

Hizashi never disturbed him. He just delivered the medicine and left quietly.

“Is this really the future I want?”

Neji asked himself, but he couldn't answer it.

He looked up at Naruto, opened his lips weakly, but closed them again.

The blond kid always smiles innocently, and even if Sasuke says something to him, he can retaliate heartlessly.

But the black beard birthmark under those blue eyes is really heartbreaking.

Six years ago, the nine-tailed demon fox sealed in the body of the Hokage's wife was unsealed and wreaked havoc on the world.

The fourth generation couple sacrificed themselves for a glimmer of hope.

The demon fox was also sealed in the body of the fourth generation couple's only son who had just been born.

That is Uzumaki Naruto.

But after the death of the fourth generation couple, what awaited Naruto was not the reputation of a hero, but calls of "monster".

Neji thought that he was not ready to face Uzumaki Naruto yet.

Nor was he arrogant enough to face the innocent villagers who had lost their loved ones in the Nine-Tails Rebellion.

Acid seemed to be oozing out of every joint in the body, a constant reminder of the sins its owner had committed previously.

"It's not your problem."

The snake didn't know what to say. Human sadness and self-blame are far more complex and turbulent than desire.

This is the limit of what can be done with its almond-sized skull.

"Without you, everything would be much worse."

The snake was stating the facts, but it knew that Neji would most likely not listen right now.

"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?"

Sasuke was arguing with Naruto one second ago, and the next second he saw Neji's pale face out of the corner of his eye.

Seems to be in great pain.

He just took a step forward and was able to easily grab Neji's wrist.

The pulse was weak, but beating rapidly.

This man's breathing has always been very quiet - it was also his fault for being careless, he only noticed it when it became urgent.

But Ningji, curled up in the rocking chair, still shook his head and uttered a few words with difficulty.

"fine..."

If this was okay, he would be the first to eat Uzumaki Naruto.

"You're sweating!"

Sasuke ignored Neji's dodge and put his hand towards his forehead.

Fine beads of cold sweat stuck to Sasuke's heart, turning into uneasiness and seeping into it.

I don't have a fever.

But this is really a bit strange.

Uchiha Sasuke has always been a very active child. He tidied up Neci's clothes, wrapped him in a blanket between his knees, then held his arm and walked into the house.

It wasn't the first time Sasuke had seen Neji uncomfortable.

Coughing, dizziness and stomachache are common.

It is normal to feel tired after sitting for a while.

It is also easy to carry the person back and do it again when he is ready.

But this is the first time Sasuke has seen Neji in his current state.

He has climbed over this wall many times.

Compared to his revenge target, his brother, he has flipped over many times.

"Hold on for a moment, I'll go call uncle."

Neji was placed back on the bed, and when he tilted his head he could see Sasuke's pale face.

The child ran away - but looking at the expression on his face, it was hard to tell who was suffering more, Neji or Sasuke.

He wanted to hold Sasuke and tell him that he was fine, but he had no strength in his body and even lifting his wrist was difficult.

It seemed like another vortex was approaching him.

And his consciousness was being constantly pulled away by the vortex.

The only sound in my ears was my own rapid heartbeat and the snake's helpless sigh:

"You're going to scare him to death."

Snake was right, he had never seen Sasuke look so embarrassed.

But Ningji no longer had the energy to think about these things. He only felt dizzy and his eyelids were terribly heavy.

...

Naruto slowly moved to Neji's bedside after Sasuke ran away.

The white eyes were already closed.

But the man called Neji doesn't seem to be in the best condition even when he's awake.

He was breathing rapidly, one hand unconsciously clutching his heart, and it looked like he was about to suffocate to death at any moment.

Naruto carefully placed his finger under Neji's nose - there was still air.

"He's still moving..."

He happened to run into Sasuke who came with Hizashi.

Sasuke: Have you ever seen a dead person move?

But now Sasuke obviously doesn't have the same killing power as usual.

There was a red spot under his eyes, and the words "he's still moving" seemed to be spoken to himself.

This was a Sasuke that Naruto had never seen before.

"Then can he still survive...?"

The two children with red eyes turned their gazes to Hizashi who was using medical ninjutsu to deal with the emergency at the bedside.

They stared quietly, and little pearls quietly squeezed out of their red eye sockets.

It really feels like a farewell between life and death.

Hiashi moved quickly, veins popping out around his eye sockets, and as soon as he rolled his eyes, he went to look for the problem.

Whether it was acupressure or his still superficial medical ninjutsu, they were only used to solve the immediate problem.

The rest...still has to be done by Lady Tsunade.

A white dove flew into the air with a letter tied to its foot with a red string.

After doing all this, Hizashi tucked the quilt for Neji, who finally calmed down, and replied to the two children in a deep voice:

"It's okay, at least I'm still alive now."

His voice was hoarse, and he seemed to have aged dozens of years in an instant.

"Sasuke-kun, thank you for today."

The man's bent waist looked like a broken poplar tree, and it seemed that he could never straighten up again.
