In Hokage, conquer Miss Uchiha at the beginning

"It's been a long wait, Naruto, Sako, here comes the tonkotsu ramen you two wanted~~~"

"Wow~~it smells so good, so I’m welcome!!٩(๑^o^๑)۶～～～"

Hearing this, Naruto raised his chopsticks and cheered.

At this moment, he was so hungry that he had already thrown all the table manners he should have observed out of the window.

After slightly blowing away the heat on the surface, the young man directly buried his head in the bowl and began to feast like a gust of wind.

He looked like a starving ghost reincarnated.

The food phase cannot be described as simply bad or bad, I can only say... it is a complete disaster.

Tsk, this idiot is, after all, the hero who ended the Great Ninja War. As the son of the prophecy that everyone in Konoha knows, how come he doesn't know how to maintain his image?

Fortunately, the streets are relatively deserted now, otherwise I would have been embarrassed along with him.………

Looking at the blond hedgehog devouring food next to him, Zuo Zi sighed with a sad face, saying that he didn't even notice.

"Tsk, the end of the crane... slow down, no one is going to compete with you anyway, so why are you in such a hurry?"

The girl's willow eyebrows frowned slightly.

"Don't always do everything in a hurry. Being too impatient is not a good habit. Eating too fast is not conducive to digestion, especially at night, which will inevitably put a burden on the gastrointestinal tract, which will affect your health...

Furthermore, you have to chew slowly to taste the delicious food."

Sako educated the young man with a serious face.

Although his tone was slightly stern, every word showed concern.

However, Naruto, who stuffed his mouth full, spoke flawlessly.

After responding to the other party with silent eyes, , the little hedgehog quickly lowered his head and continued to concentrate on the meal.

The protruding one was in the left ear and out in the right ear.

Zuo Zi was obviously not satisfied with Naruto's perfunctory attitude, and she was about to raise her voice to scold him. When he was still a teenager, Ichiraku, who had just taken off his apron by the stove, seemed to have discovered a clue.

"Okay, okay, Sako, don't worry about Naruto. He has had this problem since he was a child. How can he get over it in a short while? Let’s eat first……"

Ichiraku, with a smile on his face, was sandwiched between the two of them, using the right to speak that he had seized first to act as a peacemaker.

"If you delay it any longer, the taste and texture will deteriorate once the noodles cool down.……"

"Then...I started."

After putting his hands together and praying before the meal, Sako calmly picked up a chopstick and put it into his mouth.

Every movement was orderly and slow, showing everyone's ladylike temperament, which was in sharp contrast to the person next to him who was swallowing jujube.

………………

"Hiccup~~So satisfied~~~"

After eating and drinking, Naruto touched his bulging belly and wiped away the noodle soup at the corner of his mouth with a wave of his hand.

At best, he was bold and free-spirited and informal. , In fact, he was just plain sloppy.

The laziness of the young man lying on the table, like a pile of mud, made Zuo Zi speechless for a while. She understood that no matter how much she said

, she was talking nonsense.

, the girl shrugged slightly, and then turned her gaze to the towering Hokage Rock in the distance.

Thanks to the reincarnation eye, her vision has improved dramatically, and she can see things clearly even in the dark.

Well, that's Kaka. Xi?

Is it wrong? Even Yingyan refuses to show her full face. Is that mask a parasite on her face? ?

No matter how you look at it, the other facial features are not visible. It all felt awkward... not only strange, but also a little funny.

Along with the raised corners of her lips, two dimples that were neither deep nor shallow were slowly outlined on Zuo Zi's rosy cheeks.

One day in the future, Naruto's face will also be carved here, right?

By then, he will become the much-anticipated Seventh Generation Hokage, and will have the title of hero and savior of the ninja world. So

, without warning, his smile suddenly froze.... Is it really the right choice for me to stay in Konoha?

Naruto has worked hard all the way to achieve everything from nothing.

In contrast, I have achieved everything.…………

Clenched pink fists.

No sense of belonging, no acceptance, and wandering on the edge of the village day after day.

That's right... Idiots who insist on having their own way should be ostracized, so no matter what kind of gossip, I can turn a blind eye and endure it silently.

But what about Naruto?

When I have been living with a political prisoner with a sensitive status like me for a long time, it is inevitable that villagers who do not know the truth will gossip behind my back.

Living in the same room as a sinner who once tried to cleanse the ninja world... Once such news spreads, will his future be affected? ?

If because of me, Naruto misses the throne of Hokage that he has been pursuing for several years, then………

The girl didn't dare to think any further.

She's not afraid to throw herself into the shadows.

Uchiha Sako was already ready to embrace the darkness, but in her heart, Uzumaki Naruto must step onto the high platform with a spotless attitude and take over Kakashi's god robe.

Maybe my choice was the wrong one from the beginning.

Zuo Zi's beautiful eyes with morning light dimmed instantly.

No matter what setbacks you encounter, never give up and always firmly support your beliefs.

Strong, optimistic, caring about his companions, unswervingly determined, passionate about his dreams and willing to work hard for them, he still has good intentions towards the world even though he has gone through hardships.

Naruto...you are so unique, as warm and dazzling as the sun, you can conquer and even infect others with just a smile.

You are like a lighthouse guiding the passing ships in the vast mist.

No matter where I go, wherever I am, as long as I look back and see the faint flickering light of the fire, I will resolutely lift my feet and move forward, regardless of the strong wind, rain or huge waves.

After all, you gave me the courage to be confident…………

Because of you, I drowned in the deep sea for a long time but never suffocated.

Zuo Zi finally realized his cowardice slowly.

All this time, the girl has been unable to completely abandon her emotions and merge into the extreme darkness.

Confusion has run through Uchiha Sako's life so far. She has always been hesitant, wandering repeatedly between hatred and pain, fearful of the environment, and even more afraid of recognizing herself.

The girl knew that she was not alone.

Even if he hides to the ends of the earth, that idiot who makes the word"paranoia" his motto will pursue him without hesitation.

Zuo Zi couldn't cut off the cause and effect, there was no way... She had arranged an escape route for herself from the beginning.

From the moment the wandering flower breaks away from the tree trunk, it loses the right to love and be loved.

Aliens who live in the name of loneliness do not have the right to expect too much. Naruto... for me, it is enough to be illuminated by the afterglow you accidentally spread.…………

The evening breeze blew the hem of his clothes, bringing with it a slight chill.

Inexplicably, my vision began to blur.

The absent-minded girl pushed away the remaining half bowl of ramen in silence.

Now, she has no appetite to eat.

Naruto, on the other hand, was worthy of being a representative of low emotional intelligence. He just admired his best friend's stunning appearance with a silly smile on his face, and didn't notice anything abnormal at all.

"Na na~♡(*´∀｀*)~~Sako, it’s not too late now, would you like to go shopping with me in the commercial street? There are a lot of fun things there~~~"

"……"

"Sako? ?"

"No... Crane tail, that's it for today... I'm tired and want to go home and rest early."

"Ah? ? ?"

Looking at the beautiful figure of the girl driving away in a hurry, Naruto who didn't know why was stunned for a moment, and then scratched his little head with confusion, which was purely for decoration.

After paying Uncle Yile, he immediately got up and followed Zuo Zi ran away.

On the way back, Naruto's mouth never rested.

But unfortunately, no matter how he tried to find a topic, Zuo Zi never turned around or responded. He just walked straight forward with his hands behind his back, as if he didn't hear someone's urgent shout.

This made the young man feel a little embarrassed.

"Zuo Zi, what's wrong with you? You were fine just now...why did you suddenly...do you feel unwell?"

"……"

"Or maybe we did something wrong that made you angry? ?"

"……"

"Please, Sako, don't do this( ๑ŏ ﹏ ŏ๑ )…If you are dissatisfied, tell me directly and I will definitely change it.………"

"……"

"Sako, are you really angry with me? ? ?"

"……"

"Ahhh!! Zuozi, I was wrong, I'm sorry, please don't ignore me!!!(˚ ˃̣̣̥᷄⌓˂̣̣̥᷅ )"

Tsk, it's so noisy...You idiot, you keep yelling at the top of your lungs all day long, can't you learn to be more calm? ?

Zuo Zi, who was upset, was about to have an attack, but felt the tip of her nose get wet.

Immediately afterwards, lightning came as expected.

This belated rain finally started to fall.

Although it is a bit sudden, it is not too abrupt.

As if receiving a signal, the pitter-pattering water drops fell from the depths of the sky in neat rows without permission, becoming the only bridge connecting the sky and the earth.

Threads and threads, lingering.

The rhythm played by the rain and the treetops is slightly dull.

Dark clouds move unbridled through the gray space, and the looming thunder beats the drums, further pushing the already chaotic atmosphere to a climax.

"Um?"

When Zuo Zi came to his senses, a coat with a familiar smell was already draped on him.

"Crane tail, you……"

"Just try to block it for now...you'll catch a cold if you get exposed to too much rain. No matter what, your body is most important."

Naruto's smile was still hearty.

The blue sea-like eyes surged again, strong enough to drown the rest of his life.

Their eyes met.

In just a moment, Sako felt that all the confusion lingering in his heart disappeared.

The bloody reincarnation cannot escape after all. Open the vortex of fate.

Yes... It's really stupid. Why should I worry? I stay in Konoha just because I will protect you unconditionally. Village, just like you protect me unconditionally. After you become Hokage, I will hide my name and exist in the world as the secret pillar of Konoha Ninja Village. After all, light and shadow have the same origin, and they should naturally complement each other. The corner of his mouth curled up. This time, the descendant who was cursed by love chose to take the initiative.

"Ah, Sako(*ﾟﾛﾟ)……"

Naruto, who was shrouded in a lavender shadow, was dumbfounded.

Even he felt that using Susanoo as rain gear was a bit too extravagant.

"If we do this, will it be too ostentatious? ?"

"so what? Do you want to be soaked in water?"

"Forehead……"

"Tsk, why are you still standing there, idiot~ Come closer now, let’s say it first... I don’t care if you get sick because of the rain (╯^╰）～～"

"whee(∗❛ั∀❛), obey~~~"
