I, Naruko, don't want to be Hokage

"Fire Escape: The Technique of Dragon Fire!"

After all, Fire Dun is used to deal with Water Dun, and Sasuke also very bluntly threw out the relatively high-level Fire Dun that can be grasped now!And the moment Haolonghuo collided with Setsuna, a violent steam explosion followed!

Bang! ——

Blocking the terrible air wave that hit, the gray steam has already permeated the entire forest...

"Is it solved?"

"Eh."

Naruko wrapped Shion tightly with her hair, and after confirming that she couldn't sense the disgusting chakra, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

If it was the original Setsuna, a Haolonghuo wouldn't just hang up like this. I'm afraid the explosion successfully took away the bugs in Setsuna's body. Looking at the surrounding gray, it might be more appropriate to use electrotherapy?

However, it didn't take long for the sweeping airflow in the sky to take away the surrounding white mist, and the huge black bird also landed back to everyone's side.

"Now, do you want to move on?"

Sai also jumped off the big bird, subconsciously looked at the surrounding blur, used his own perception to confirm the existence of the enemy, and then looked again at Naruko, who was supposed to be the leader of the team.

Naruko looked back at Shion, then looked at the already dark sky and sighed.

"forget it."

"Eh?"

Shion couldn't understand Naruko's abnormal answer at all, but Naruko just smiled.

"Well~ Rest is also very important~"

After talking, Naruko looked at the crowd again, although everyone also had the same doubts as Shion, but they didn't say much.

Chapter 42 Future

"I didn't expect it to be like this..."

"Hey, it's like this now, so you don't have to think too much, Mr. Ashui, at least I will protect your safety."

Everything seemed the same as usual, and in the study-like pavilion, Ashho sat at the desk flipping through some documents, under the black frame, stared at Hatake who was leaning against the wall and didn't know what book he was reading.

On the surface, it was the same as what Hatake said, so that he could protect his own safety, but Ashho, who had already realized the situation, could only look at his palm, and sighed helplessly.

Sealing.

As for his current situation, Ashio is still a bit bland. I am afraid that he used some secret techniques to seal him. As for the reason, it must be attributed to Shion's foreknowledge.

It was impossible not to worry, and after erasing the calm written on his face, his heart was completely agitated. As Ziyuan's bodyguard, he was also quite clear about the nature of Ziyuan's foreknowledge.

It was precisely because of this that he was able to realize the reason for Ziyuan's abnormality. Now, through the countermeasures of Yuzhu and others, he is of course more convinced that he will die.

Then he was even more worried, because he couldn't imagine what would happen afterwards. If he didn't replace Ziyuan's death, then Ziyuan herself would be the one who took the biggest risk.He also tried to question Hatake Akira for not understanding the danger of what he did, but Hatake just smiled and replied with an extremely logical thinking:

—You are a retainer, aren’t you?This is what Aster means.

What's more, Yuzhu really didn't care about Ziyuan's life or death. He closed the book in his hand and looked into the distance. It was already dark at this time. If calculated according to the time and schedule, Naruko and the others could reach the underground palace tomorrow .

......

"why?"

"Huh? What?"

"Don't play dumb, isn't time already tight? Why did you suddenly stop?"

Beside the fire, a pair of purple eyes stared puzzledly at the blond girl sitting next to her. Shion really wasn't particularly capable of Naruko's brain circuit. She used to have an anxious attitude to make everyone move faster, but now she suddenly relaxed. Everyone can understand the reason for resting at night, but no matter how you think about it now, this is not the time.

Naruko held a small branch, poked the firewood under the firelight, and then turned her head to Shion.

"Well, it's useless to be anxious. I think it's possible that the ghost has already arrived at the palace, so it's the same if you go early or late."

"That's what it says! But..."

Ziyuan didn't know where Naruko had the confidence to conclude that this would be the case, but when she unconsciously looked around, she realized that there were a few figures missing in the open space where they settled down.

"Where are Mr. Sasuke and Mr. Sai?"

"Ah, they went to explore the way."

"Eh!?"

As she spoke, Naruko shook the branch in her hand, showing a smug smile.

"I asked them to take my Kunai and set off. Wouldn't it be good to leave the tiring work of traveling to them?"

"Clam!?"

Feeling that she had heard wrongly, she cupped Naruko's face with both hands, and her eyes widened. At this moment, she felt that there was something wrong with Naruko's character!

Naruko smiled heartlessly. After all, for ninjas, they still follow routine operations for night operations. There is nothing weird about it. Instead, she moved Shion's hand that was holding her face.

"No problem, this level is still not difficult for Sasuke. The main reason is that you were so nervous that you were scared by the previous guy, so you stopped."

"Yes...that's it."

After hearing Naruko's words clearly, Ziyuan slowly put down her hand, and sat quietly in her seat.

"Don't think too much, it's just an insurance policy."

Too much protection will only become a burden on Shion, and Naruko also made it clear, trying to prevent Shion from putting too much pressure on herself.

And Ziyuan lightly, watching a small bell on her wrist by the light of the fire.

"This is?"

jingle bell~~....

Naruko still had some memories of this bell, but it was quite vague, and she didn't quite remember what it was used for. By the way, in order to avoid the topic, Naruko also poked this small thing.

"This is a gift from my mother. It seems to contain the power of my mother. It's like an amulet~"

"yes."

Just mentioning it briefly, the corner of Ziyuan's mouth evoked a slight smile, but it always gave people a rare sense of warmth.

But the smile didn't last long, Ziyuan recalled something, and suddenly turned around again:

"By the way, how is Ashio? In the prophecy, he seems to use secret techniques to become me..."

"Ang, don't worry about this. Before I left, I gave Mr. Suho a seal. He couldn't undo it without me~"

Naruko pinched the branch in her hand and shook it unconsciously, with a confident expression on her face.

It's not her bragging, as the Uzumaki clan, her talent in the sealing technique may not be considered a genius, but she is not weak, not to mention the obvious strength gap between him and Ashiho, it is impossible to break free by herself.

"And there's Hatake watching~ don't worry."

“…”

"Well, don't worry, Hatake isn't bad in nature, it's just that he has a bad personality... Ah, but when you said that Mr. Ashho would use secret techniques to change into your appearance, I thought it was amazing~ Did Mr. Ashho also have a technique similar to the transformation technique?"

Ziyuan was quite at ease at first, but after hearing Naruko from Hatake, her expression changed, which made Naruko scratch her face in a speechless manner, and she changed the subject again witty.

On the other hand, Ziyuan's expression sank even more, and she said with a wry smile:

"That's not your ninja's transformation technique.. After using that secret technique, it cannot be dispelled..."

"Hey! Really?"

"Ah."

Shion's affirmation made Naruko stunned, or he had to feel that there are really all kinds of secret arts in this world.

But after thinking about it for a moment, he smiled again.

"Hey, if I knew this earlier, I should have waited for Mr. Ashio to use a secret technique to stop it~ Then I could see two Shions, twins, wouldn't that be great~"

"Huh? What are you thinking about?"

Hearing Naruko's remarks, Ziyuan pouted angrily, but Naruko smiled even more maliciously.

"Are you kidding~ And if it's true, wouldn't it be interesting? Think about it for yourself~ How will Mr. Ashiho behave in the face of life in the future?"

"Puff...ha..."

It's interesting to think about it~ What kind of entanglement and guilt would it be about Shion's appearance, and even her body?

Ziyuan also stared in a daze, lost in thought, and finally couldn't hold back her laughter...

The two chatted by the fire for a long time, all of which were boring and trivial matters. Ziyuan rarely let go of her reticent mouth. For example, she very much condemned Naruko for abducting her. After all, she was really scared to death at that time.

I don't know how long they chatted, until Sakura, who was holding the hand, couldn't stand it any longer, tapped Naruko's head, and then ended the night chat.

"Hey, Naruko? Can we win?"

"What stupid things are you talking about~"

"Yes!"

.....

In the early morning, sensing that Kunai in Zuo's assistant was no longer moving, Naruko also opened the curtain of the tent, but what she didn't expect was that Shion was already awake, staring at a certain direction in a daze. It seemed to startle her, and she was grabbed by the arm in panic..

"What's wrong?... Zi Yuan?"

I was in an unknown darkness, but I could still see the surrounding scene clearly. The fire in the underground potholes was the light source for everything here.

It was a disgusting unknown creature, but I knew what it was. Someone was calling my name, and countless black shadows were scurrying around in my field of vision, destroying everything around me. I could hear the breaking of stones. sound.

But as expected, the girl's call was the most ear-piercing...

The girl with long blond hair shuttled through the shadows. For some reason, he was sure that she was fighting, until she finally approached him, trying to reach out to him, and what he caught was the scarlet that really splashed over...

.....

Chapter 43 War Begins

The night sky has been replaced by blue, and the air is filled with the greenness of the morning.

The surrounding area is no longer a dense jungle, and Naruko, Shion, and Sakura arrived at the location where Sasuke and Sai arrived in the blink of an eye through the rapid transfer of Flying Thunder God.

The field of view is quite wide, it is a highland, no matter how you think about it, it is a specially selected location, because there is no need to search here, and you can easily find a certain palace building that is not hidden.

Sasuke and Sai, who are considered to be elite ninjas, will not show fatigue after staying up all night, but Naruko is yawning, after all, she is the kind who wanders outside and goes to bed on time without any special tasks Good boy, of course it doesn't affect her actions.

What's more, in the current situation, she can't feel drowsy, and snoring is just an automatic reaction of the body, it's better to say that she is actually in good spirits.

It's just that Ziyuan's aura seemed inexplicably depressed compared to their group of guards who stayed overnight.

"What's the matter, Shion? You've been acting weird since just now, are you nervous?"

"Eh!..Huh? Mmm..."

As if taken aback by Naruko's question, Ziyuan raised her head abruptly, widened her eyes, clenched her hands subconsciously, and after looking at Naruko for a few seconds, she hesitated to confirm. With a sound, he lowered his head again.

Naruko was also really taken aback by Shion's abnormality, but she was nervous, she just scratched her head understandingly, but now this kind of virtue is no way out, under the signal of her simple eyes, Sasuke The others also sighed helplessly.

Rather than attack recklessly, it would be wise to wait for a while.

The so-called underground palace is just a cave outside, but I don’t know whether it is man-made or natural. There is no vegetation at all around the entrance of the mountain, that is, the edge of the palace. Coupled with some aging sculptures around, it is easy to will be able to identify the identity of the cave.

Naruko wantonly unfolded her perception, trying to extend into the cave without any hindrance, until the inexplicable nauseating Chakra reaction stimulated the nerves of her whole body, causing her to quickly withdraw her perception.

There is no such thing as harmful, but simply disgusting hairs, which are more disgusting than the chakra that Kyuubi filled her with. The malice of Kyuubi Chakra is mostly anger and hatred. Ryo is too responsible, and it is a collection of negative emotions in the true sense.

"what happened?"

"Ah, it's okay, I just felt it inside...very annoying..."

"yes."

Sensing the subtle change in Naruko's face, Sakura asked worriedly, and didn't ask any more questions after hearing the answer. Sasuke also glanced at Naruko slightly, but quickly withdrew his gaze, isn't it? Because of guilty conscience or shyness, but simply discovered the abnormality!

"That is!?"

Bang! - Bang! ——

There was only a subtle vibration from the ground, but the cracking sound of the stones was extremely deafening!Countless huge figures were unearthed on the flat ground outside the cave in a blink of an eye, protecting the entire entrance of the cave, or the entire mountain in less than a few seconds!

"Discovered!??"
