"

If I kneel down, the collar will only be on me.

Except for the sun, the moon, the universe, I will not allow anyone to restrain me.

-Xuan Ye "The Cherry Blossom Tree Under Xuan Ye"

Push the cup to change the cup, drink for three rounds.

While the dishes were being served, Nara Shikamaru put down his chopsticks and looked up to see a giggling blonde idiot.

"I said Naruto, why are you smiling so disgustingly? It's really troublesome."

"I always feel so happy. It's my first time to eat yakiniku with others!"

Haruno Sakura looked at the excited Uzumaki Naruto. His always shining sky blue pupils were brighter, but there was melancholy hidden deep in his eyes. Uchiha Sasuke, who was sitting next to him, also had some kind of feeling about this occasion in his eyes. Discomfort and nostalgia.

lonely.

They are both teenagers who have experienced true loneliness.

When Haruno Sakura realized this, the illusory barrier she built in her heart finally broke, and a feeling of guilt arose spontaneously.

She finally couldn't help being hypocritical.

"Naruto, Sasuke, I'm sorry."

Haruno Sakura thought to herself, does it really happen that people become sentimental and sad as they get older? Just like Grandpa Hiruzen.

"Sakura-chan?" "Sakura, you asked me to make that kind of statement but still continued to deal with it. It turns out that you still know how to apologize."

"No, it's not that. You all know that Shisui is my old friend. In fact, I still have the blood of the Uzumaki clan." Sakura lowered her head slightly, her long hair hanging on her cheeks and hiding her expression: "That's right, Naruto , you and I should have a certain degree of blood relationship."

"Sakura-chan" So Sakura-chan is my family? The warmth of hope sprouted in the heart of Naruto, who had never felt any family affection.

"Shisui's younger brother is my younger brother, and Naruto, you can be called my blood-related relative. In other words, you should be my dear brothers. But I ignored you, Naruto, you were oppressed by the villagers, and you never When Sasuke suddenly loses your family, please pay a little attention as a clan brother and old friend." Haruno Sakura raised her hand to Konoha's forehead protector and tore off the bandage wrapped around her neck. The sunken neck tender flesh highlighted her Not a light force.

Uzumaki Naruto's eyes were slightly dim and speechless, and he suddenly didn't know how to react, while Uchiha Sasuke frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.

The other four people present also fell silent. One of the two genin from Team 10 was focused on chewing, while Nara Shikamaru and the two instructor jounin pretended to listen carefully as if nothing had happened.

Haruno Sakura continued: "If I could be less cowardly, if I could be more reliable, maybe you wouldn't have to have such painful memories. I'm sorry for both of you." The fingertips sank deeper and the bandage loosened slightly. , there seems to be some kind of black mark on the exposed neck.

Kakashi, the Sharingan who has been in ANBU for ten years, naturally did not skip this scene.

"Sakura, do you mind if I re-tie the bandage for you?" Hatake Kakashi grabbed the student's hand and forced her to let go of him. Haruno Sakura did not resist and allowed the jounin to untie the forehead protector and wrap around her neck. Neck bandage.

"Ah! I was distracted for a moment. I'm sorry, Kakashi-sensei. Thank you." The bandage was taken off and still on the table. There were black marks that looked like thorns on the girl's fragile neck. The man's dog was wearing a collar, and there were red marks around it that the girl had pinched out just now.

The two Jonin and the boy from the Nara family present had three pairs of eyes that looked even more meaningful. Kakashi Hatake took out a roll of bandages from his ninja tool bag and wrapped it around the student gently, trying not to touch the female ninja's skin to avoid suspicion.

"Haruno Sakura, I will not accept your apology." Uchiha Sasuke did not ink the black pattern, just treating it as some kind of tattoo. He finally formed his words: "At least your eyes have not changed."

The famous family fell overnight, the entire clan was slaughtered and one person was left alone. Everyone's eyes changed.

Adults show hypocritical sympathy, girls of the same age begin to show admiration when they reach an age, and boys of the same age are filled with jealousy.

Only Haruno Sakura's eyes remained the same. She didn't pay too much attention, but she wasn't indifferent either.

Uchiha Sasuke showed a rare smile, which was the frivolous and free-spirited smile of a young man: "So, I will not accept your apology. I have my own goals and ideals. Compared with those unnecessary cares, it is better to treat you as my lover." Tell me all the information you know about Uchiha Itachi."

Uzumaki Naruto raised his lowered head and stared closely at the black-haired boy next to him. His mouth opened and closed, and the blue light returned to his eyes.

He grinned and looked at Haruno Sakura: "Huh, yes Sakura-chan, it's rare for me to agree with Sasuke's words so much. When everyone looked at me with that disgusting look, only Sakura-chan you always They have never given me any special attitude. I have always thought that Sakura-chan like this is very, very good! And, I will definitely be recognized by everyone one day and become Hokage, so what should I say? , those sad memories and the like, I will turn them around with my own hands."

The expressions of the teenagers were firm and confident, which is the strength that can only be tempered by grief. Haruno Sakura looked at her two teammates with wide green eyes. Her lips trembled, and two lines of clear tears fell from the corners of her eyes, and happened to drip onto the fingertips of Hatake Kakashi, who was still struggling with the bandage.

The tears were cold, but the silver-haired jonin trembled for a moment as if he had been burned.

"Sakura?" "Ah, Sakura-chan, why are you crying? Don't cry. Don't you think Sasuke and I are fine? And knowing that I still have blood relatives, I'm really happy to say that!" Two young teenagers were very nervous when they saw that their female teammate was suspected of being made to cry by them.

"As expected, I'm still not as good as you." Haruno Sakura lowered her eyes.

"Naruto, you actually have a very good pair of parents, and your birth is full of expectations and blessings."

"Sasuke, it's okay. Don't think only about revenge. Occasionally, think about the capabilities of Itachi and the Uchiha clan."

The sentence ended in a strange place. Haruno Sakura put down her chopsticks, reached out to wipe away the tears on her face, and laughed dryly. Hatake Kakashi quickly fixed the bandage, and in his last peripheral vision, he seemed to see the black mark twisting strangely.

"Ah haha, it's true, you guys are so cute that my eyes are drooling."

It can be said that the tear glands of a person cannot be controlled when they are old, but this body is still in its youth. I am really getting better and better as I live.

"Okay, okay, let's continue eating quickly. Auntie, please excuse us and we still have to order." The girl smiled heartlessly, as if nothing happened.
