Shimura Danzo is actually a good guy

Chapter 248 Comfort (Part Two)
Early the next morning, news spread that Jiraiya had been appointed as the deputy commander of the Ninja Army.

With the letter of appointment, Jilai also quickly mobilized the team to bid farewell to Danzo and set off to return to the border to join the large forces. The war has already begun, and small frictions often occur on the border, although the real battlefield has not yet been fully opened. out, but it shouldn't be far away.

The small team on their way seemed a little silent. From waking up in the morning to Jiraiya returning with the team, Naruto was very quiet during the whole process, so quiet that others around him could feel his depression.

You must know that Naruto is very close to everyone in the team because of his optimistic and sunny personality. His strangeness quickly attracted everyone's attention and infected everyone's emotions.

What's going on here?
Wasn't it fine yesterday?

Could it be because of the deputy commander?
Shikamaru's doubts are the same as many people around him, but he knows more than others. Since Maruho Kosuke was removed from the position of deputy commander by Danzo yesterday, he guessed that Naruto would go to Danzo to explain in private This matter, but now that the person leading the team is replaced by Jiraiya-sama, it seems that the matter has not been settled.

"Naruto-kun, is there anything unhappy about you?"

During the break, Hinata couldn't help looking at Naruto beside him and asked carefully.

She cared more about Naruto than anyone present, and she was more willing to speak up.

And Naruto shook his head, forced a smile and squeezed Hinata's face: "It's okay, I just didn't sleep well last night."

Not shy because of Naruto's intimate gesture in public, Hinata stared straight at Naruto with wide eyes, stretched out her hand to hold Naruto's palm and said, "If you have anything to do You can tell me everything, I will help you, no matter what, I will stand by your side."

She is not a fool, after getting along with Naruto for so long, she can tell clearly at a glance whether the other party is really okay or pretending to be okay.

Obviously, Naruto's mood is very depressed now, and it is a depression that has never been seen before.

When Hinata was rejected by the villagers in the village before, Hinata had never seen Naruto show such an expression.

But she didn't know what happened to Naruto. As his girlfriend, Hinata could only say that she would stand by his side unconditionally.

Feeling the care from Hinata, Naruto's heart felt warm, but also because of her concern, he thought of more things, and extremely complicated emotions came to his mind, making him inexplicably irritable.

A conversation with Uncle Tuan yesterday made him sleepless all night after he went back. Images of the entire battle process appeared in his mind all the time. The fantasy reverberated in my mind, and among them, the scene where Hinata died because of her own impulse was also included.

His impulse will kill many people.

"I'm fine." Naruto shouted irritably, pulled his hand out of Hinata's palm and turned away from everyone's sight.

Only Hinata was left standing there with her hands raised, staring blankly at the disappearing figure of the other party.

There are not many other things in the Land of Fire, except that there are a lot of trees and forests.

Now they are far away from the town, and they don't take the official road because of the rush, so the roads they pass are all deep forests that have not been developed.

The rest time is only half an hour, half an hour to eat lunch and rest for a while before leaving, Naruto sat down alone under a big tree after leaving the team, he buried his head on his knees in pain, and pulled his hands hair.

Whenever he sees his companion's face, he can't help flashing in his mind the imaginary appearance of the other party's death because of him. This feeling is not good for a person who values ​​love and righteousness like him.

"You brat, a girl as good as Hinata is so indifferent. Didn't you see that she was sad after you left just now." Naruto was startled by the heartless voice, and he raised his head following the voice Looking up, I found that the other party was lying on the branch of the big tree where he was resting at some time.

"Master, can you stop following me in such a sneaky way?" Naruto shouted angrily, he stayed away from the team just to prevent his weak side from being seen by others, but he was still seen now.

"I didn't follow you, but I think this location is good. It is not exposed to the sun, and the branches are hard enough for me to lie down comfortably." Jilai also yawned and said, his body still following The branches swayed up and down, looking very leisurely and lazy.

Hearing Jiraiya's words, Naruto curled his lips and was about to get up and leave to find another seat, but he hesitated and sat down again.

"Stinky boy, you are not very old, and you seem to have a lot of things on your mind."

Looking at his appearance, he knew that the other party had something to say to him.

"Master, how did you say I did yesterday?" Naruto hesitated for a moment, then raised his head and asked Zilai.

"Expression? What expression?" Jiraiya jumped up, no longer lying flat and facing upwards, but turned upside down and hugged the branch to look at Naruto below.

"that is."

Naruto opened his mouth to explain, but he was inexplicably irritable and didn't want to recall what happened during the previous mission. He shook his hand and said, "It's okay, I'm a little hungry, let's go back to the team and have something to eat."

As he said that, he was about to stand up, and then he was hit on the head by something. When he looked down, he found that it was a ninja tool bag containing military food pills.

"You can really eat, and you just finished eating the allotted military food pills on the first day of your journey? No, I still have a lot, you can take whatever you want."

Picking up the ninja bag on the ground, Naruto looked up and met Jiraiya's sly eyes.

Everyone in this kind of bag Ninja has one, Naruto also has one, and it's pinned to his waist now, and he hasn't eaten the Bingliang pill inside.

"Oh, I know you're still thinking about yesterday's battle. Lord Danzo told me." Jiraiya jumped down from the branch to Naruto's side, and sat under the tree with him.

Naruto lowered his head and remained silent. Since Master Tuan was looking for him to guide him, he would definitely tell him what happened last night, which he didn't expect before.

"Actually, according to the mission process that Danzo-sama said, I actually think your performance is pretty good at your age. At least I made no fewer mistakes than you at your age, and I have never faced the real end. Beast." Jiraiya comforted, "I just think Danzo-sama has too high expectations of you, there are so many geniuses in this world, it's good that you can't run away under such circumstances!"

"It's all because of me that Keke put everyone in a dangerous situation with me." Naruto said cautiously, mainly because of this issue that made him care.

"But it's also because of your help that Danzo-sama and I were able to come to your side through reverse psychics across a distance of thousands of miles to support you, right? If you choose to retreat calmly, in that case, Xiao Li and Gu Senior Jie will definitely die, but now because of you, both of them survived."
