There was a knock on the door of Hokage's office, and Shikamaru's voice came. Accompanied by Kakashi's bad behavior, Shikamaru's face turned bad as soon as he entered.

"Master Hokage, don't tell me that you and Naruto are playing... snow... fight!"

The tone of the last three words can be emphasized, Kakashi said with a wry smile, and Naruto with an inexplicable face was caught and cleaned up the room, and he slapped him by the way. The two who left together at night chatted peacefully under the moonlight.

"How do you feel? After talking to Lord Hokage."

Shikamaru turned his head sideways to the gloomy young man before, with a relaxed tone.

Naruto tapped his left hand with his right hand, facing Shikamaru sideways.

"Did you do it on purpose? From the very beginning, you planned to let me run all over Konoha, to make sure I became a ninja?"

Shikamaru waved his hand.

"It's good to know, everyone won't be so worried after hearing you say that! What if you don't want to be a ninja anymore? In this case, no matter what, the life of ordinary people is indeed much calmer than ours. Once you get used to it It’s not surprising to be addicted.”

"No, the people I want to protect are in Konoha, not those villagers. Although I also want them to be safe, I can only think about some things. After all, they are people from two worlds. They are the best."

Naruto is very clear that he won't stay in Aoi's village for long, and the peace there is based on the fact that his identity is not exposed. Now he knows what kind of existence Nine Tails Jinchuriki is, and what kind of person he is , although he knows only a little bit, but the expression occasionally revealed in the heartbeat of others, he really has to lament his god-like status. The peace he got among the common people like that is just a mirror image, which disappears at the touch of a touch. In order not to give them Bringing danger, it is the best choice for him to leave.

"It seems that you are very clear, then I can rest assured."

Shikamaru looked at this guy seriously, Ma Daha's accidental ninja has also changed!

"Let's go take a look at the Consolation Monument later! There will be new discoveries."

"Hey, you really plan to let me run around Konoha in one day?"

Naruto felt a little helpless, isn't it too early?

"For you, wouldn't it be good to get acquainted with Konoha earlier?"

The back of Shikamaru running away gradually disappeared in the night, he just waved his hand and didn't say goodbye, but Naruto smiled happily, this guy...

In fact, Shikamaru asked him to do this for another reason. Let this hero who has been away for ten years get to know his companion well, and let his companion accept the current guy. No matter how deep the bond is, the changes brought by time will still It exists, even if that person still needs to reach out to each other to make the bond more stable again.

Anyway, he ran away for a whole day, which is not a problem in Bubble, not to mention that he has long wanted to see the comfort monument, and the traces of the carvings allow him to touch it with his fingers.

The footsteps were light and shallow, very obvious in the silent night, so when the blond ninja came to the memorial monument and was reluctant, a female voice came over.

"Who's where?"

Shy and soft, with a very delicate voice, the traditional black straight hair makes the girl more calm, and every move brings out everyone's self-cultivation. Hinata is already in her 20s, and she is not young enough to resist her family's urging marriage It was very difficult, but she still persisted. After the war, she would come to stand in front of the memorial monument for a period of time every night, and she couldn't tell what she was remembering.

"it's me!"

Naruto stood up, his blond hair was brilliant in the sun, but it was slightly condensed in the moonlight, the edges and corners had grown and matured, making her heart beat louder and louder when he approached Hinata In the end, the big one made him unable to stop himself, and his tall figure completely enveloped Hinata.

Hinata Hinata has just returned from a mission, and she is still wearing the usual ninja suit. Her ferocious white eyes are not opened at this time, making her eyes seem to have no pupils. In fact, this is not the case, but the pupils are bigger than the whites of the eyes. Parts are even lighter, so you can't see the color.

"It turned out to be Naruto! I was shocked."

Hinata said shyly that she still likes Naruto after so many years, but that love is even more hazy now. She hasn't seen him for ten years. She understands that many things cannot be controlled by her identity, such as who is the wife of Kyuubi Jinchuriki, Who should she marry from the Hinata family.

"Sorry! I scared you, I just want to see the comfort monument."

Naruto's expression was a little helpless, with his hands stretched out in front of his chest.

Hinata was surprised and then relieved, let out the stone tablet behind her, and smiled.

"It turns out Naruto hasn't come yet."

Nodding his head, Naruto walked to the front of the stele, squatted down, and carefully touched the engravings that had gone through countless years with his fingers, and the names of every hero.

Yamada Michi, Motoki Akito, Matsushita Haranosuke... All people who are in trouble, died on October [-], my birthday.

Naruto who touched the trace thought silently.

Hinata is very considerate, she knows what Naruto is thinking now, so she just silently watched this man's figure with her reserved eyes, with the same eyes as before, quietly, without affecting him.

Naruto's fingers continued to be agitated, rubbing little by little, paused when Sasuke Sarutobi passed by, and then paused when they reached a person's name.

"Neiji Hinata, my cousin."

When Naruto was silent and didn't know what he was thinking, Hinata explained softly.

"How did he die?"

Naruto's question was very abrupt, but he couldn't help but answer his question with a deadpan expression.

Hinata was not angry at his rudeness, but said kindly.

"During the Fourth World War, I helped Naruto block the attack. He is a hero."

"He was truly a hero and he saved my life."

Touching his heart, a black-haired and white-eyed ninja stood in front of him tearing up in his mind, spitting blood and saying that he was hopeful, the painful feeling of not being able to protect his companions made his hands tremble.

"What has he been through with me?"

"Ningji! He longed to become an Asuka to be free, and he did get it after his death. He is very happy."

Naruto was silent.

"Why do you know?"

Hinata tilted her head, but she, who was shy by nature, raised the corners of her mouth generously, and looked up at the sky, as if she saw that awkward brother.

"Ning Ci was released from the cage by you, and now it is also because of you that you have gained freedom. It is his long-cherished wish to give up his life in order to protect him. His strength comes from his faith."

"Yes, Neji is very happy to save you."

Following Hinata's words, Xiao Li's voice came from behind them. When they turned around, they noticed the green tights. The effect of this suit in the forest was really good. They didn't know how long he stood there.

"Naruto, I'm proud of Neji. As my eternal opponent, how did he win me? It really makes my nose cry and tears come out!"

Xiao Li felt very excited. He could finally communicate with Naruto. In the past, when he was looking for Naruto, he was thrown out by Sasuke with an attitude of aesthetic pollution. Today, he can be considered to have caught Naruto, but he just said so when he came. The topic that made him cry is really too bad!

Tears flowed one after another, Xiao Li was very sad, but he agreed with Neji, and this feeling was also passed on to Naruto.

Along with Xiao Li's cries, the blond ninja touched the memorial monument from beginning to end, carefully remembering those heroes who hadn't been handed out.

People who remember us in time may all die and leave, and no one will know our name, but the existence of this memorial monument gave us a destination, so that we can laugh and watch the new seeds grow , watching the old trees leave, becoming immortal bit by bit.

"Sasuke! Welcome back!"

Naruto standing at the gate of Konoha was dressed in a ninja costume, and his behavior and expression were more like him before. Sasuke looked a little stunned, walked over strangely, greeted the gatekeeper ninja, and threw the things in his hand over .

"This is a souvenir."

"What is it?"

"Tomato curry."

"It's such a strange thing again! You bought it for yourself, right?"

"Yes."

"Bastard Sasuke!!!"

There is a bond unknown to others between the blond youth and the black-haired ninja, but this can be clearly reflected in the eyes of those who look at their backs. It is simple, unknown, even strange, and elusive. Thoroughly, something that still exists after passing through the time, at a certain time, suddenly sprouts and blooms, and bears unusual fruits.

The author has something to say: It’s really unlucky today, the heavy rain is pouring like God’s anger, the cars on the street are floating up, you can see how heavy the rain is, luckily I’m just soaked and not washed away-.-.
