People are in Konoha, this Naruto lies flat

Chapter 223

Naruto went up the stairs in three steps and two steps, climbed to the highest floor of the Hokage Building, and then slowed down.Carefully moved to the door of Hokage's office, and took a peek inside.

Tsunade is working, and looking at his face, he is not in a good mood.

At the door here, Naruto was still debating whether to go in, Shizune looked suspiciously at Naruto who was peeping with his butt up in the corridor, and couldn't help asking.

"Naruto, you."

Well, I have to go in now.

In Hokage's office, Jing Yin came in and delivered some documents before leaving.Tsunade raised his head and frowned at Naruto in front of him, asking angrily.

"What's the matter?"

"Stamp it." Naruto nervously took out the application form.

Tsunade glanced at it, thought for a while and reached out to cover it.She didn't show any face to him, and let him go after a few words of advice.

Go back to the mission center and directly slap the stamped application form on the table.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle." Naruto said angrily, completely different from the way he was lying low in Hokage's office just now.

"Immediately. Immediately."

The little old man had already left, leaving a girl in her early twenties to deal with Naruto here, looking like a threatened hostage in a hurry.

The matter is not complicated, and I don't know what the little old man said, but the little girl was quite frightened.

Naruto pouted, but said nothing.After the formalities were completed, I went to report to Asma with the task list.

These days, high-level executives also have to do tasks.Who made him lonely, idle is also idle.

Asma was smoking a cigarette, staring at the task list covered with formalities over and over again.Well, there is no problem with procedural justice.

It's just that he couldn't understand, did this person have any other purpose?
The sparks flickered, and the smoke was exhausted.

He looked up at Naruto, "Can Naruto go out first? It's not convenient for me now, this is a men's room after all, although you are also a man, but..."

"Ahem." Naruto backed out.

When Asma came out, the first thing she said was, "Let's go, Uzumaki Naruto, let's meet them together."

Apparently, Asma had heard the news of the high-level meeting in the morning, and the address was probably a joke, and she patted him on the shoulder.He is a direct descendant of Hokage, and he is happy to see this result.

"Who are you seeing?" Naruto was stunned for a moment.

afternoon.

Choji swallowed the barbecue with a big mouthful, his mung bean-sized eyes swept around, and fixed on Naruto and Ino who were facing him.

"I said, Naruto, you are too mean."

"Which is not interesting?"

Naruto spread his hands, and the table was full of friends who knew everything.The body has also grown, and the long-armed and long-legged man leans comfortably on the long sofa, and Ino sits beside him.

"Why don't you tell us such a big thing?" Shikamaru was also lying on the sofa, holding a glass of watermelon juice in his hand.

"How to say this, I don't know myself." Naruto curled his lips and said, "Besides, the incident happened suddenly, isn't there nothing wrong now?"

"However, it may not be a bad thing now, at least don't worry about it." Shikamaru said ambiguously, deliberately avoiding the topic of Jinchuriki.

Ino seemed unusually quiet, making the sauce aside.

Obviously, the incident happened not long ago, and the few people didn't talk too much about the topic in the morning, and quickly turned to the task.

"Something's wrong, why did you suddenly think of joining us on this mission?" Shikamaru asked with a suspicious glance at Naruto, then at Ino.

"what's the situation?"

"Ah?" Ino blushed for a moment, feeling a little guilty.

She knew why Naruto insisted on interfering, but the more she understood, the hotter her face became.At that moment, she tried her best to divert her attention to dispel the thought.

"Your task is too dangerous, I'm worried about I" Naruto was about to say Ino, when suddenly a sharp pain came from his waist which was blocked by the table, and his tongue immediately tied up.

"I am worried about the safety of Master Lu, and I have a good friendship with him, so I want to join in."

Shikamaru and Choji didn't see Ino's small movements, but Asma, who was sitting outside, noticed it.He just smiled, then stood up, and said slightly melancholy.

"I'm going outside to smoke a cigarette."

"Huh?" Ino turned his head, as if realizing something.

Shikamaru frowned, "Ms. Asma, didn't you ask you to smoke less? Why are you smoking again?"

"This." Asma had already put the cigarette in his mouth, "the last one for today."

Naruto can also see that Shikamaru and Asma have a deep relationship.Ino likes flowers, Choji is more concerned about eating, and people with excess intelligence like Shikamaru are more compatible with Asma.

Just looking at the back of Asma leaving the store, why does Naruto feel a little desolate?Could it be that he stabbed the old bachelor in the back?But isn't he very close to Xi Hihong?
Forget it, I'm still a herbivorous boy now, so I have no reason to pay attention to the secret love history of these old men.

"Naruto, do you know Master Jilu from the Temple of Fire?" Choji stopped his chopsticks and asked suddenly.

"It's pretty familiar." Naruto said after hesitating for a moment, "Both Master Jilu and Teacher Asma have worked in the Guardian Ninja Twelve, and they have a deeper friendship."

After eating and drinking enough, Asma paid the bill. He is really not short of money.The complete second-generation children, except for the two points of not having a wife and being old, their lives are almost complete.

Born in the family of the Third Hokage, whose roots are red, he has everything he wants at a young age.Because Hokage is not the most important person in Konoha, the unscrupulous boy Asma suddenly felt that Hokage was too low.

Resolutely, she took off her fans and turned back, rebelliously left Konoha, and went to work as a personal bodyguard for the Fire Nation Daimyo.Well, a young man ran away, and returned ten years later as the Dragon King.

Dragon King Pooh, the bad boy Asmarang has had enough, and he returned to Konoha wearing the clothes of all villains.

Hokage's father, the third generation, forgave him with a smile, inherited the Sarutobi clan's family business, and had a childhood sweetheart Kuroyuki waiting for him, a perfect template for a second-generation winner in life.

It's just that the timeline moved forward a little this time, and Di Lu was lucky enough to escape the catastrophe.So this mission is mainly to investigate and search, not to chase down the undead duo.

The main content of the task is to go to the Temple of Fire to investigate, and then follow the clues for a period of time, and by the way, protect the land for a while until the end of the task.

If there is still no clue after investigating for a period of time, the mission will most likely be cancelled.

So apart from Naruto and Ino, no one actually took this mission too seriously.After all, it is just a simple investigation and search centered on the Temple of Fire, which is generally safe.

Asma had something to do and left, Shikamaru and Choji went back together, and Ino and Naruto were the only ones left in the seats.Naruto was about to say something when someone outside the door glanced at them and left.

It was a rather apprehensive look in his eyes, he glanced at him, stopped in his tracks, turned around and left.

Naruto was a little speechless, it's really unlucky to meet the group of people from the Hokage Building even after a meal.

"Let's go, take you back?" Naruto turned to look at Ino.

Ino thought for a while and said, "Go to your place."

Naruto was flattered for a moment, and Ino hadn't been there for a while, almost making him think that it was caused by his excessive force to cast a shadow.

"Okay!" He answered first.

"Don't think too much." Ino glanced at him, and skillfully tied up the golden ponytail, "I just have something to ask you, it's not convenient in the store."

"what's up?"

"Well, it's nothing, let's talk about it when we get there." Ino said.

When he heard this sentence, Naruto was a little uneasy.There was Tsunade in the front and Ino in the back, each of them reacted differently, did I poke a hornet's nest?
However, Kyuubi's escape is indeed a bit more dangerous than stabbing a hornet's nest. At least the latter is a tailed beast that eats people without blinking or even nauseating, but Naruto doesn't think so.

No matter how cruel the tailed beast is, it has to hold its head and act like a chick in front of power, but women are obviously a few cubic meters more complicated.

A section of the road is not too long, and it will soon come to an end.Ino walked in front, and Naruto followed slowly, occasionally walking a few quick steps to get in front of her.

However, Ino didn't seem to respond, and chose to ignore it as if he didn't see it.

Ino went upstairs in silence, took out the key, inserted it skillfully into the keyhole, and opened the door with a creak.Naruto followed, but the door was unlocked.

Pushing open the door, Ino squatted at the entrance, not speaking.

The body huddled together, the hands hugged the knees, the dazzling blond hair seemed to have lost its luster, and the head was lowered overturned, and the whole face was buried in the knees.

The afternoon sun slanted in through the crack of the door and hit his feet.

The smiling face who was about to make jokes disappeared, and Naruto was a little at a loss. The hot summer wind blew in from outside the door, carrying the smell of dried green leaves.

"Ino?" Naruto suddenly became clumsy, he didn't know what to say after calling out his name, he stood there and opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.

Ino is very good at reading the atmosphere, so it is easier for others to detect clues from all kinds of gossip that are true and false, and get the answer she wants.

In fact, she could see the embarrassing situation Naruto was facing. After staying with him for so long, she knew his character well.

It's just that things have reached this point, and it's just a move that has to be done.Things that other people think Naruto is very majestic, but in her view, that is not the case.

The so-called prestige is just because of Renzhuli's status, he has no choice but to do it.But now Naruto is suddenly no longer Jinchuriki, which is a good thing, but Ino always feels uncomfortable.

Maybe she felt that the whole thing had nothing to do with her, even though Naruto was no longer Jinchuriki, it seemed like nothing had changed, she could only watch helplessly.

He pulled Ino's arm away, trying to pull her up, but was startled by her raised face.His little face was wet with tears, and his eyes were red and swollen like inflammation.

Why some people can cry silently, strange thing.

As he thought about it, his heart skipped a beat.
