Naruto: Changing Fate

bet?

Facing the extremely simple words Shikamaru gave after careful consideration, Naruto couldn't help but froze for a moment.Then, as if he realized something, he freed up a hand and slowly placed it on his forehead. While covering his eyes with complicated emotions, the corners of his mouth gradually rose, revealing a helpless smile.

I didn't realize how brave you are...

Seeing that although the person in front of him felt helpless, he did not show any signs of anger, Shikamaru felt completely relieved and knew that he had finally passed this test.Then he blinked his eyes with an innocent face, and continued while trying to suppress a smile: "Both each other... I never thought that the examiner who made such strange and weird rules would be unexpectedly good-natured and easy to get along with."

Okay, okay, please stop flattering me. I’m covered in goosebumps. Don’t you find it disgusting?

After hearing Shikamaru's words, Naruto couldn't help but smile in his eyes even more.Then he put on a straight face and pretended to be serious while joking, and at the same time, he deliberately shook his whole body to act like a scared kid.

Have you seen Hinata in my arms?Let me tell you, I am a family man. No matter how much you praise me, I will not have even the slightest 'good impression' of you!

ha?What are you talking about...

Naruto...Naruto-kun!You... what are you talking about!What... what does it mean to be a person with... a family... ugh——!

However, before Shikamaru could come to his senses, Hinata, who had been silent in Naruto's arms, was immediately embarrassed by Naruto's teasing words because girls are naturally more sensitive emotionally than boys. He came out with a big red face.There were bursts of steam rising from the top of his head, he was hesitating and complaining, he simply buried his face deeply into Naruto's arms, and kept rubbing it with a blushing face, trying to hide the sincere and gradually uncontrollable smile on his face. meaning.

Naruto...Naruto-kun is...an idiot!

Oops, I accidentally forgot that the person involved is here...

The person in his arms didn't show any resistance to his remarks, which made Naruto secretly sigh in relief. Then he tried his best to suppress a smile and pretended to be serious while joking, and covered his free hand with the soft and smooth hair of the person in his arms. .While stroking and caressing her continuously, she responded to the muffled cooing of the person in her arms like no one else was watching.

Hehe...Okay, okay, I'm a fool, I'm a fool...Be good, be good...

Being caught off guard and taking another mouthful of dog food, Shikamaru suddenly felt a familiar sense of sadness and helplessness in his heart, and he finally understood what Naruto meant by good impression.The corner of his mouth twitched and he looked at Naruto for a while, who was looking at him with a proud face and constantly raising his eyebrows in silent ridicule. Shikamaru was shrouded in the halo buff of a single nobleman and subconsciously turned his head as if he could no longer look directly, avoiding the seemingly in front of him. There are pink bubbles popping up, which are enough to make a dog blind.

…Please allow me to take back my previous evaluation of you…

While raising his hands to cover his eyes, Shikamaru turned his back slightly to Naruto. As he gradually confirmed that Naruto's character was not as moody as he thought, he no longer restrained himself as deliberately as before. .Then, while his facial muscles twitched, he pretended to be sad and angry and accused Naruto of his inhumane dog abuse.

How can this person have such a good character... He is clearly an extremely bad existence!

Um?Have it?

Facing Shikamaru's heartbreaking accusation, the smile in Naruto's eyes suddenly grew brighter.Then, while trying to suppress his laughter, he coughed a few times and responded to Shikamaru seriously, while deliberately closing his arms in front of others, taking advantage of the situation to hold Hinata, who was too shy and had some weak legs and feet, firmly in his arms.

Ahem, you are slandering me. I just told the truth, right~

Faced with Naruto's deliberately flabby look, not only did Shikamaru feel a deep sense of powerlessness, but even Ino, who was watching from the side and did not dare to express his anger, couldn't help but turn his eyes into completely white beady eyes. , and then complained loudly.

Before you say this, let go of your dirty hands, you bastard!

While looking around, Ino, who was full of dissatisfaction and had nowhere to vent, gradually closed her hands. Under Choji's increasingly desperate eyes, she rubbed and squeezed the bag hard, using it as a punching bag to vent her anger.

The proud and provocative look now is simply one!point!explain!Clothes!force!All!without!have!ah!

Wuwuwu...I...my poor potato chips...

Hearing the crunching sound of potato chips, Choji's mind immediately pictured the golden, crispy and delicious potato chips gradually turning into powdery residue under Ino's claws.I couldn't help but cry softly. Unconsciously, because I didn't have time to care about other things, I missed the perfect opportunity to unlock the achievements of a single nobleman by eating dog food like Shikamaru and Ino.

Um?Do you have any comments?

Hearing the strange noise coming from the people next to her, Ino turned her head instantly, the unhappy expression on her face disappeared, and while gradually returning to a smile, she asked softly every word.

No, no, no... no, as long as you are happy, as long as you are happy...

As a member of the Ino, Deer, and Butterfly trio that he has played with since childhood, Choji naturally knows that the smiling face of the person in front of him does not mean that his mood has really improved.He tried his best to squeeze out a smile amidst the friendly questions, waved his hands in a pretentious manner, then squatted down with his back turned, buried his head in his knees and sobbed softly.

Wuwuwu... I'm angry because I'm angry, why are you wasting other people's potato chips... Wuwu... My poor potato chips...

Hahahaha, okay, okay, no more fuss.

Seeing the different reactions of the people around him, Naruto couldn't help laughing after all. Then, under the silently accusing looks in Shikamaru and Ino's eyes, he bent down and put his hand into Hinata's leg. She bent down and carefully picked up the shy Princess Qingqing, whose entire little face was completely red, in her arms.Then he walked forward seriously, neither quickly nor slowly.

Ahem, it's almost time. I think we'd better hurry up and get on our way.

But at this moment, Ino belatedly remembered that she did not seem to have clearly gotten the answer to the question she was secretly concerned about from the previous riddle-like conversation between Shikamaru and Naruto. As a result, she gradually regained some sense and started to understand again. He spoke out to stop everyone from moving forward.

Wait a minute!

As he spoke, Ino turned his head little by little, adjusted his gaze to look at Shikamaru, and asked curiously.

What did you mean by what you said before?What kind of bet and how brave are you talking about? I didn’t understand it at all!

Hi, I thought you wanted to ask something, but it turned out to be this...

Naruto, who stopped again because of Ino's words, couldn't help but smile even more in his eyes after listening to the questions raised by Ino in the second half of his words.Instead of turning around, he resumed his movements and continued to move forward neither fast nor slow, while continuing to speak in a teasing and gentle voice.

Shikamaru could guess that the reasons why I was the examiner were probably more than the ones I thought of.And I'm not the roundworm in his stomach, so naturally I can't explain it clearly, so you have to ask Shikamaru for the details... But I think the most important thing is to make him sure of the reason why he won the bet. I can still guess more or less.

well?The main reason... what is it?

That's because, like other candidates, you did not follow the guidance of the sign and choose to turn right, but like us...

As he spoke, Naruto paused for a moment, and then turned slightly to the side, allowing Ino to see the smile on his face. At the same time, he tapped the ground beneath his feet with his toes.

Completely violated the guidance of the guide signs and walked on this 'wrong' road.
